Sometimes, when he’s bored, Internet Dad will let me clear out the spam filter, because he knows I have no credit cards and thus can’t be swindled into paying for whatever boondoggle is offered our way. (Pfft – “Help Puerto Rico”?) After all, it’s important to keep people like Russians & carpet dealers from interrupting our enjoyment of dick jokes & Moose gifs.
Last night, however, we were almost treated to this in the Open Thread
I had so many questions: (sadly, not 25)
- Who were these girls?
- Where were they incarcerated?
- How desperate are they?
Sadly, what I thought was a clickbait-dream turned out to be nothing more than a spam site offering cheat-codes for a fee. Why, it wasn’t even worth running around the school board filter to try & access. TRY HARDER, COMMIES!
Game preview: Washington at Philadelphia
It seems funny now that this game is, for all intents, probably the deciding game for the NFC East this season. The Ginats have been out of it since Week-3, and the Cowboys are reverting to the 8-8 Jason Garrett mean. If Washington has any hope of making the playoffs as a wild card (at minimum), they need to go into the Eagles house & smash in their teeth like the Eagles did to them Opening Sunday.
Carson Wentz has blossomed into a possible real-deal in his second year under Doug Pederson. The offence has been expanded each week, as Wentz’s skill set shows he’s ready for a broader range of QB options. Receivers like Alshon Jeffrey & Torrey Smith help compensate for the learning curve, and Zach Ertz has become the Eagles’ Travis Kelce as Wentz’s reliable check-down option. The defence is solid yet unremarkable, as they really have yet to be tested; the hardest game they’ve had was against Carolina, and they bounced Newton all over that field.
Meanwhile, future-other-team’s QB Kirk Cousins is both playing for bonuses & auditioning for roles elsewhere, so look for him to sling the ball all over the field, to whomever’s healthy enough to be in the lineup. And speaking of healthy, there’s no Josh Norman for the foreseeable future, so good luck covering the deep route. All they can really hope for is to run the ball & eat the clock, because they will lose an air war with the Eagles.
Prediction: Eagles by 10.

Fun story, there was a newspaper story about Upper Marion and how much pot kids there smoked and the headline was ‘Higher Marion’

More like a broken leg. Trust me, I’m a doctor.
hopefully that good Eagles play was ‘just a rebound’
The vaunted USMNT, folks!
Good to see that the rebuilding is starting well.
I’m out folks. I got another early morning to do training. Y’all be safe.

Was… was that woman wearing a shirt that said DICKS?
She sells sporting goods.
There is no college team I want to see eat shit as much as Penn State.
Except maybe Notre Dame.
Yes, Pedo vs. Rapey; The Coverup Special.
I’ll openly cheer for Ohio State this week.
fortunately, my teevee will be on NBC so I won’t feel the shame of actually seeing the game whilst doing so…but yeah
NC State is gonna tear the Domers a new asshole this weekend. In their house. This I promise the Commentist Party.
I’m praying for a meteor to vaporize Indiana, Ohio, and Pennsylvania.

I failed at drinking all this prosecco before the half, but that’s okay because I actually want to watch the second half, if for no other reason than watching my fantasy victory slowly crumble at the same time as the team I support
Yay for you?
Matron Saint rocking those boots tonight. Good girl.
she’s quite fashion forward
And this is what a good US soccer team looks like.

When? The Simpsons ended in Season 8 after the horrible Homer Enemy episode.
That was a great episode.

Can the Philly fucks throw some 9volts at the refs for us all?
When my BLEERGH-ometer went off in the car, I hadn’t anticipated the type of game I’d be treated to this evening. That God I made it home before halftime. Guess Hochuli’s crew isn’t working the Superb Owl this year.
This is good football things
THE RUNNING BACK IS NOT WEARING PANTS! CALL A TIME OUT!!!!
If they form a conga line and make the TD that way, I would go okay with it. Otherwise nothing is crazy enough
You think Parcells would take a swing at Belichick if he was still coaching?
No, but he’d buy the first round for the guy who did.

Apparently this only aired in California. Fascinating.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GXl8vRmLeJk&app=desktop
Man could you imagine if they allowed comments on that video.
That would be ground zero for youtube shittery.
I saw it on ESPN at the last commercial break. I couldn’t believe the rest of you didn’t comment on it but I guess it was only for California.
I caught the tail end of the ad this morning during the news. I just ignored it.
Did not see it here. Because in WA, we support our president!*
*Hahahahahahaha
If they had shown it here in TX, Governor Abbott would have issued a fatwa on that guy.
Abbott doesn’t have a leg to stand on.
Yea I didnt catch it on my stream….. weird.

Pretty solid result for the worst half of the Eagles’ season.
Plus they get the ball back.
Ertz so good….just not against Dallas.
So, on my long drives of the past few days I’ve been thinking. pete Carroll thinks that the US government did 9/11. He thinks America perpetrated a terrorist attack on its own soil, and yet no one says that he’s disrespectful of the US. But kneeling? Way worse?
He’s white
White guy
He’s white. So are most 9/11 Truthers.
Old rich and white. He’s eccentric.
AND he once coached the Jets. The Jets!
Soooo…he’s trying to cover up his own involvement by blaming Da Feds…am I doing that right?
It’s a good start but you are still clearly brainwashed by the lamestream, new world order media. I mean, obviously, the Original Pete was pumping his players with super soldier mind control gas and they had to get rid of him when he learned too much and wanted to leave the program. Why do you think they filled the 9/11 planes with ultra-flammable jet fuel? To make sure Pete and all his players’ bodies were destroyed beyond all recognition. The current “Pete Carroll” is just a black ops agent taking his place and trying to discredit him by being a conspicary theorist to throw people off the scent. Which also explains why his coaching record improved so much after 2001.
Have you read the theories about the supposed additive in the fuel which is why it burned orange when jet fuel “usually” burns a different color?
You know what else is orange…
I bow in awe of vastly superior crazy thinking. I am but the grasshopper.
To me, its no different than a lot of shit that is cool for white folks to do, but black folks can get into serious shit for.
Like a brother can never raise his voice in public because if you are seen as aggressive, that’s pretty much all that is necessary to get arrest or some random asshole is justified in putting a bullet in you.
Hell, you really want to fuck your kid long term, name him Jamal. You never have to worry about him getting a job because that poor fucker will never have an application get through HR.
It’s similar for women. IWDB has been accused of being “too aggressive” at meetings the past for taking no shit and talking just as loud as the guys.
What I love is this carries over in so called “liberal” circles like academia where your likelihood of getting published, reviewed, and funding is often times based on you have a white, male name.
Very true. It extends every which way. IWDB was telling me that code written by women is generally preferred, but only when it’s anonymous. If names are attached, the clearly male name will have their code used more often.
It’s slowly changing in the legal profession, the generation 1/2 below mine (even in a very traditional mid-South firm like mine) is at least 50/50 women, because they’re damned good. Really give a better rounded perspective to client service, too, in a way that is very refreshing to me, and finally overwhelmed the hold-outs who find it threatening.
But they get pushed out or burn out at much higher rates early on.
I keep demanding bar numbers for retention of women and POC, but apparently that’s beyond OSB’s ability.
Aw, fuck it. Not your guys’ problem.
Liberal bigotry is my favorite phenomenon.
I’m compassionate to those I agree with.
Oh, is that mass-market soy?…
I wonder if it Ertz to get tackled like that.
Doughnut.
Hehehehehehehehe.

Did you guys get that Tom Steyer ad?
Not that anyone cares but i did manage to win my FF matchup this week. Zeke and Bell carried me with that bum Cooper on the bench.
it’s nice not to have that haunt your dreams
Russell Fucking Wilson……errrrrrr, I mean good game, Beastie.
……..eye twitch….
3rd and 1…run the fucking ball.
No, no, I have seen a quick slant work before in a big game. Or at least the Seatruthers say they would call the same play again.
Well! I never…!

This is great!
So its open season for TD celebrations and the NFL is no longer clamping down, what is the post TD celebration a player could do that would lead to the NFL flipping out and banning celebrations again?
I am thinking simulating a suicide bombing with the football…
Kneeling.
Beat me to it.
Take it even further…praying to Mecca.
Oh wait, the NFL already fined Husain Abdullah that one time.
I would pay actual money to see two guys simulate an e-meter auditing session out there.
They were okay with the stop and frisk
Frantically simulating masturbation, and then “spurting” the football at climax?
I like that…but take it farther where the rest of the team surrounds the scoring player and simulates a team wide bukkaki…
That would wake them up in Wichita!
Lol Gruden getting prank phone calls……
Fuck that was a nice pass.
“North Dakota Tough!”. God, I hate Gruden.
What does that even mean? And how is different from “Ram Tough?”

I wonder if Gruden is aware NDSU plays in a dome?
White guy dancing!
Ah good. Football is good again.
I feel much better.
You’ll find some reason to boo that play.
New Riley CooperDOWN!!
NOBODY TOUCHDOWN!!!! I will take it.
Fingers crossed this turns into a shootout!
Okay, that’s a super dumb celebration dance
Y’all might get a kick out of this. My high school mascot was the Blazer. It was supposed to be a less offensive name for ‘red devils’ but they didn’t know that it would become a drug reference. There was a very entertaining high school president speech about a ‘blaze of glory’ that fully played up the implications
Back when I was 12 and in Boy Scouts, we went to Dover Air Force Base, and they played Blaze of Glory over their propaganda/hype package. It seemed like an odd choice to put a song that focuses on the “SHOT DOWN” part for an Air Force video, but whatever.
Dover is where the USAF morgue is.
why is “red devils” offensive ,, no ofence?
Damned if I know, that was just the half asses explanation for why we had such a weird mascot
I suspect overzealous Christians in the local community.
I guess they’ll eventually change the name to “Casual Sport Coats.”
Lol!
