Your “It’s A Color Rush-Tastic!/ RAMMIT!” NFC West Showdown Open Thread

RAMS/49ERS:

That recently-displaced St. Louis football squad finally gets to leave the aloof and disinterested confines of whatever that stadium is that they now play in. The Empty Seat Convention (“this place is so roomy!”) that occurred the two previous Sundays wasn’t embarrassing for the league higher-ups at all, mostly because that is not an emotional response that they’re capable of. The Rams blew out the Colts and came within 7 of the ‘Dacteds so it would seem that the guy that looks like Gronk’s off-season wingman-HC Sean McVay(“I was born in ’86. Feel old yet?”)-has them pointed in a direction that isn’t rock bottom. This is a team that can be 7-9 this year and actually feel good about it. To his further credit he’s given up on Tavon Austin (16 snaps in two games) and rolled the dice on Sammy Watkins. The latter hasn’t done anything yet but as I said about Chris Hogan, it takes a bit of time to bleed the Buffalo from one’s system.  Qb Goff sports the league’s highest passer rating (146.8) on throws over 20 yards so he can throw the deep ball with precision. That’s a start.

The 0-2 Niners have yet to score a TD this year. Their game last week vs. Seattle was like Burning Man for somnambulists. Rb Hyde is doing his part by running at a 7 yard per carry clip and I figure he’s the one that finally crosses the goal line for San Fran this week. The RAMMIT D gave up 5.9 yards per run last week but Aaron Donald is rounding into shape so we’ll see how things develop. ‘Pedestrian’ describes qb Hoyer’s play and what he might look like in Donte Stallworth’s headlights.

Let’s make the best of this. If you’d like to weigh in on politics, comedy, Hot Ones, your 70’s porn star figurine collection or anything else afore the game you should give ‘er below.

He’s on the sideline making coffee.

Uwe Krupp large German defenseman? Retired I assume to a life of bratwurst and frauleins.

Doktor Zymm

Nevermind, this is a silly idea. I know what happens. I will watch the BURGERS OF BOB instead.

blaxabbath

Watkins is impressive. I did not like him coming in to the division.

King Hippo

holy fuck what a catch

Doktor Zymm

I’m gonna watch Monday night football instead, and then be really happy when tomorrow isn’t Tuesday

ballsofsteelandfury

Is it really only California that refuses to show up to watch shitty teams play? I don’t understand this.

King Hippo

plus the 5pm Thursday traffic factor for this one

ballsofsteelandfury

Bullshit. Anyone that was going to the game took a half day off.

SonOfSpam

Both of them?

King Hippo

traffic is just especially bad there, based on where they put the stadium (I remember the articles when it first opened). Any casuals won’t make it, fo sho.

The suckass certainly also matters. Tis a confluence.

Doktor Zymm

I MAY have forgotten about this game but it’s all good cause I don’t have NFLNetwork or whatever anyway and I’m too damn drunk and lazy to find a stream so THERE

ballsofsteelandfury

you could watch your new home. And empty seats.

Spur

you are obliged to now stream the Yahoo game on Sunday.

Doktor Zymm

NOPE on Sunday I am going to the DC State Fair even though they are not a state!

Holy shit, I didn’t realize they were playing this game at the Coliseum! At least the crowd is bigger…

litre_cola

They are at The BIG BLUE JEAN no?

King Hippo

yep, Santa Clara

ballsofsteelandfury

clearly sarcasm font is malfunctioning.

Spur

Spur

i havent checked yet but how’s baseball? who should i be rooting for

litre_cola

Dirt Vikings

blaxabbath

Dbacks.

King Hippo

I dunno who or what matters now, when the playoffs start, I can’t watch until Dirt Bears and Dirt GREATRIOTS are out. Guess I kinda like HOU and LAD ok.

I had to sign a form as my vet gave opiates to me for my dog today. It was odd.

You gonna let him have any?

Yeah Pug Cola is 10 and needs them for a bit.

“Hey Pug Cola, don’t bogart the oxy”

Is this how Hippo started?

King Hippo

nah, I’m a cat person they don’t weigh nearly enough

/I have myriad legit ailments

litre_cola

Everton fan this year should get a double dose.

Spur

Am still in Anaheim for work and the edgy SM took me out for dinner to Hooters. It was more depressing then i could imagine.

SonOfSpam

Right near the stadium? You are lucky! Say hi to the one with the tits.

litre_cola

Were there any Gruden Grinders working?

ballsofsteelandfury

The one by the stadium? Yeah, the good ones are by the beach.

And by good ones, I mean the TITS.

SonOfSpam

Can’t argue with that.

“And Goff threw no turnovers!”

Then they show a clip of 49ers DB never even trying to turn his head back to the ball.

King Hippo

/that happen a couple times

Still, RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRAM IT!!! is my pick for the division. They have good OL and DL.

blaxabbath

That is one hot taek.

Favorable schedule though.

ballsofsteelandfury

How many pills have you taken tonight?

King Hippo

JUST enough

/also have you seen SEA and AZ play this year? ASS

ballsofsteelandfury

Seattle should run away with this division.

blaxabbath

SEA SHOULD. But they won’t and it’ll be a week 16 underwhelmer that finally eliminated the 5-win Cardinals.

Spur

Howdy Folks

Good evening!

SF #77 sucks.

Hoyer doesn’t really feel the pressure until it’s up his ass.

Kinda like when I get a physical these days.

herodotus450

Of every musician from the 70s, Donovan is that last one that I would have expected to still be alive. And not the leader of a Jonestown-esque cult.

Hawt Taek: Surprisingly, I find that I don’t really mind the whole split screen “we’re gonna kinda give you a commercial without actually cutting away” kind of thing. Other than when they forget to go back full screen once play resumes. But I guess it’s just a matter of working the bugs out.

blaxabbath

You can take the Rams out of St Louis but you’ll never take the Rams out of the Rams.

Really? I thought they were ungulates. Good thing my vet practice closed.

Gurley having a nice 1st half, he certainly is RAMMING IT.

The NFL needs to drive up viewership. I suggest theme weeks. Or like, every TNF game has to have one team playing the wildcat. Then like, the first game between playoff-eliminated games is played without the thigh bads so everyone’s just going down with charlie horses like crazy, being all gun shy when they get back in the game.

SonOfSpam

Visiting team: No pants
Home team: Grab balls for tackle

theeWeeBabySeamus

No Left Shoes!!!!!

I mean, I’d say no shoes….but it’s funner seeing left feet with no shoes getting stepped on by right feet with cleats. Ooooohh…could even sharpen ’em.

SonOfSpam

When you say that, are you steepling your fingers and tapping them together lightly? Because I think you are probably doing that.

Unrelated to NFL – anyone have any advice on recovering content from a scratched CD? I mean, this this is scratched up to shit but I’m 99% sure it has some family video stuff I’d pay to get extracted. Is there people out there who can manage this?

litre_cola

I used to use dish soap, the stuff for the sink, then rub in circular motion

blaxabbath

It WAAYYYYY past that. I can put it in my computer and it won’t even read a CD.

litre_cola

OOf, that is no good.

Google “damaged dvd reader”

Lot’s of ways to recover damaged CD/DVD from cheap to expensive

I’ll err towards expensive.
