Your “Is This How I Got Carpal Tunnel?” Wednesday Evening Open Thread

NFL News:

  • Everything’s coming up Cowboys today:
    • A TRO granted by a NY court will allow Ezekiel Elliott to play Sunday versus the Niners.
    • Dallas will host the 2018 NFL Draft.
  • Noise:
    • NFL ratings are down 7.5% from last year.
    • Jed York said, “We need to be above petty attacks from anybody, because racial and socioeconomic inequality have existed in this country for too long. You’ve got to block out the noise and do your job.”
      • Why? Let’s check in with a failed USFL owner:

To which I add,


Courtesy Deadspin, some hero/masochist decided to make a video showing all the bumpers for failed TV shows Joe Buck has made during his 21 years (?!) of broadcasting baseball playoffs on FOX.

There’s a delightful combination of “who the fuck is that guy?” and “who thought that was a good idea?” wrapped up in the misery he’s forced to relay. It’s but a taste of what we viewers go through when he goes off on his tangents.


Tonight’s sports:

  • MLB:
    • Game 4: Dodgers at Cubs – 9:00PM | TBS / Sportsnet
  • NHL:
    • Red Wings at Maple Leafs – 7:30PM | Sportsnet1
    • Blackhawks at Blues – 8:00PM | NBCSN
    • Canadiens at Kings – 10:30PM | NBCSN / TSN (Quebec) / RDS
  • NBA:
    • 76ers at Wizards – 7:00PM | ESPN / TSN
    • Timberwolves at Spurs – 9:30PM | ESPN / TSN

I know MLB HQ has an extreme hard-on for a potential Yankees – Dodgers World Series. My thoughts?

C’MON ASTROS!

That’s very athletic and pretty awesome. I’m just wondering if it’s the safest thing in the world to be shooting arrows in a crowded arena using a powerful hunting bow, while standing on your hands, balancing on two poles, and pointing the bow with your feet. I just think it might increase the odds of someone getting shot in the face with an arrow. Or even worse shot in the chest, right through the heart, and the arrow sticks hard in the seatback behind them and the EMTs take an hour to remove the body because its stuck and the whole arena full of people has to watch this.. or, even better, an arrow goes clean through one guy’s neck and then sticks in the chest of the elderly man sitting behind him.
