Your “Save Room For Biscuits” Monday Night Football & Evening Open Thread

Whether it be Thanksguiving, Columbus Day, or Indigenous Peoples Day, happy holiday Monday to you all.

And if you didn’t have a holiday today, maybe move to a better state or country.

There’s no NFL News update because I may or may not have typed this last Thursday, right before I picked up my first bottle ahead of the Thursday Night game. If the Patriots lost, I’m blitzed until Tuesday.


Game preview: Vikings at Bears.

Hold onto your butts, because tonight marks the first appearance of…

the Truth Biscuit!

Mitch Trubisky, fresh from a whole 13 starts at the U*NC, starts tonight & we’ll get to see whether the Bears laughably wasted those draft picks to move up one spot to get him. Looking at their schedule, it’s probably the best time to start him, as after this the Bears next face off against the Ravens, Panthers, Saints & Packers. If they ever wanted to get him a start & avoid David Carr-ing him, this is the game. Plus, they have a deadly 1-2 combination at running back. If John Fox is a smart man, the ratio of running-to-passing plays is 2 or 3:1.

(Ron Howard voice: he was not a smart man.)

The Vikings, meanwhile, don’t know who’s starting half their positions until they take attendance on the bus leaving the hotel. A Filipino bellhop could end up being their long snapper if he doesn’t get off in time. Current starting QB Teddy Bridgewater Sam Bradford Danny Wuerffel Case Keenum just has to copy the Rodgers tape from last week & stay upright in order to have a successful-enough game to carry the Vikings to victory.

Anyone for a 10-10 tie?

(A billion thanks to Low Commander for the awesome photoshop.)

Unsurprised

It occurs to me that the Vikings have been tearing through players like the Vikings who were trying to get back home in the cold open of the American Gods pilot, and the only way they can ever win is to fucking go balls-out and have a war to the death between two sides like they did in the series.

Doktor Zymm

I didn’t know they made a series of that, how close to the book was it?

Unsurprised

Pretty close, but heavily stylized in Bryan Fuller’s style. It’s the best series on TV, maybe I’ve ever seen. Plus, it turns out that Emily Browning can act when not in a Zach Snyder movie.

But seriously, Ian McShane is a great Wednesday, Orlando Jones kills it as Mr. Nancy, and Gillian Anderson is wonderful as Mass Media.

I love/am confused by seeing players looking up at the scoreboard to see the penalty they just committed, like just to confirm that they had.

Doktor Zymm

It needs to be official before they can mark it off on their penalty bingo cards

Brick Meathook

“I looked cool committing that penalty”

Unsurprised

562 comments? This can’t be that good of a game. It’s fucking Truth Biscuit vs. whatever’s left of the Vikings.

King Hippo

it’s the last game before the “Suicide Temptress Desert” of Tuesday-Wednesday.

BrettFavresColonoscopy

Remember, this kid can’t read

King Hippo

if you could adjust for that in net YPA, he’d be doing pretty good!

Doesn’t get old. (The girl, I mean, because the dog killed her)

The best part is that the kid’s eyes telegraph what is about to happen.

Doktor Zymm

Poor eye discipline, smh

Sharkbait

Y U No throw to Diggs?

BrettFavresColonoscopy

Is he back on the field or are they still tending to his groin on the sideline? Has to be easier than working g with Shiancoe.

Sharkbait

Looked like he was out there.

Doktor Zymm

There’s always the beautiful possibility of a tie! :ooray, no one wins!

WCS

That’s what these two teams deserve.

Im still disappointed the Stone Cold Lock Of The Century, Of The Week is no more

Air China gave me an Air China sticker to wear on my shirt during check in. This is a new one, no idea what the point is.

LemonJello

To make sure you don’t end up at Pyongyang International Airport?

“Crowd fully engaged…”

Aw, they went to Jared.

He meant to say “engorged”.

I’ve seen heavily-decorated vans with less airbrushing. All aboard the S.S. Date Rape!

No way that pistol was concealed there.

Unsurprised

We need to dig deeper.

LemonJello

I either had a Trent Green or a Strokey Kubes moment. This game is TIED?

Could be a lot of tittays kissed tonight in the Chicago metropolitan area.
/not counting Sanchez cruising high school parking lots

BrettFavresColonoscopy

Still debating over text if that was awesome or stupid. Either way, it was entertaining af.

King Hippo

doinking the TD off the safety?? I’d say both, really.

BrettFavresColonoscopy

Sure that or the reverse counter option 2 pt attempt

synapticmisfires

Hoooleee Shit! Maybe all those trash plays were just setting up that 2 pt try. After all, if a competent team did something like that, you’d know it was a trick. But when the Bears do it, it’s like, “oh TE reverse. That sounds about right.”

King Hippo

I could not have been more certain the ball was going to Howard, fo sho

Green bay has supposedly the best quarterback of all time and get praised for those fake extra points

Two more qb injuries? I have Orlovsky and Dan LeFevour in the “QBs hired befor Kaepernick” pool.

SonOfSpam

Why not Trent Green? He’s forgotten more about football than anyone has sailed a Chrysler.

Tim Rattay is still on the board, great value pick

Lost interest in this contest, in it’s stead I devoted a portion of my allotted time in this existence towards the searing of the flesh derived from innocent barnyard creatures utilizing my preferred utilities (grill) that were provided by my life partner upon her return to our shared domicile.
In other words…fuck this game, burgers and brats are on!

I go out of my way to avoid seeing brady and Rodgers, yet they’re referenced multiple times.

How many safetys did I miss in the time it took me to get to the airport and check in?

These teams are exploding like Malaysian jets.

Senor Weaselo

Surprisingly not exploding like Malaysian jets? The Jets.

Yet.

Doktor Zymm

Are there going to be shreds of jerseys washing up in the Maldives?

Shogun Marcus

You have no proof.

SonOfSpam

Look, it was either that or aliens, and I don’t think the aliens thing is more than 38% possible.

BrettFavresColonoscopy

We’ve replaced Vic Fangio with Bernie Lomax, let’s see if anyone notices

Suddenly, this is a shoot out…?

Wow, maybe Gruden might actually say something positive about the Bears…. I don’t know why he hates the Bears so much. Maybe they didn’t give him as much as he wanted when the rumors were swirling?

That was the most nonchalant pass I’ve ever seen.
