Just so you know, I set this thread up before heading down to Seattle for the [Redacteds] v. Seahawks game Sunday. My brother has promised copious beverages, and thanks to the handsome bastard BOLTMAN refers to as Low Commander I have coupons for assorted Seattle breweries to choose from as well. So while you’re Open Threading Sunday & not eating pizza, I’ll be brewery-hopping & not eating pizza.
Together, we can bring down the pizza oligarchs that secretly run this continent. Oil barons are just a front.
Well, let’s see who’ll be costing Papa John’s revenue today: (courtesy 506sports.com)
CBS EARLY
█ Anchorage AK | █ Fairbanks AK
█ Honolulu HI
| █ | Denver @ Philadelphia | Ian Eagle, Dan Fouts |
| █ | Baltimore @ Tennessee | Kevin Harlan, Rich Gannon |
| █ | Indianapolis @ Houston | Greg Gumbel, Trent Green |
| █ | Cincinnati @ Jacksonville | Andrew Catalon, James Lofton |
| █ | NO GAME due to local team at home on FOX | |
With word Thursday that DeShaun Watson may have Bridgewater’d himself, the Colts-Texans game sure looks like a lock for “Dog of the Week” on CBS. Ain’t nobody ordering pizza for that.
Unless they sign Kaep. OMG – Matt McGloin is now a Texan. That’s worth a laugh, not a slice.
CBS LATE
█ Anchorage AK | █ Fairbanks AK
█ Honolulu HI
| █ | Kansas City @ Dallas | Jim Nantz, Tony Romo |
| █ | NO GAME due to local team at home on FOX | |
This…this should actually be a pizza-worthy game. I believe it’s also Romo’s first visit home in the booth, so expect the over/under on JERRAH stories to be 7.5. Plenty of Jim Nantz guffawing is sure to accompany.
FOX SINGLE
█ Anchorage AK | █ Fairbanks AK
█ Honolulu HI
| █ | Atlanta @ Carolina | Joe Buck, Troy Aikman |
| █ | LA Rams @ NY Giants | Kenny Albert, Ronde Barber |
| █ | Tampa Bay @ New Orleans | Thom Brennaman, Chris Spielman |
| █ | Washington @ Seattle (LATE) | Kevin Burkhardt, Charles Davis |
| █ | Arizona @ San Francisco (LATE) | Chris Myers, Daryl Johnston |
Actually, not too many dogs on this schedule. Only the Cards-Niners game, but that’ll just leave us hard for next week, when the Bay Area is hit by an outbreak of Garappolio.

Wherever you are, you kings & queens, teens & tweens, please enjoy your Saturday night. THAT’S AN ORDER!
I am starting DeMarcus Robinson vs Dallas today over E. Sanders, D. Booker, TyMont, and TJ Yeldon (ok, that one was easy). I hate bye weeks.
I really do like the London games as I am up anyway with the baby so it keeps me entertained.
Somehow even the good time change has irritiated me. I coulda slept in more, and now I gotta go change all my sundials.
Sun? What’s that?
Well when a sperm meets a zygote and donates its Y-Chromosome…
It’s fall, so just move one house to the right. That’s how you fix sundials.
Whoa, has daylight savings time made it Saturday morning again?
Unsurprisingly, Ivan the Terrible, was Terrible
Y’all are awesome. Imma go sleep maybe. But huge hugs, mentally and such. I’m not making a squee noise right now, cause I’m alone, but I’m drunk enough that women roughly my age could convince me to make such a noise, so feel free to imagine it if you wish. As well as anything else women roughly my age might convince me to do.
Cheers, and Good Night.
Anything, eh?

You are 87, right?

BUZZARD!
Yes, I am listening to Porgy and Bess while unpacking.

FUN FACT : Porgy and Bess was originally supposed to be called Porgy. Belatedly, they realized that the woman they wrote a lot of great music for and drove the plot was actually a strong character and should be added to the title.
Kudos to rhyming liable with bible
The Pedantic; the killer of jokes, but not as bad as OJ.
Not always. Sometimes it’s just the straight man setting it up
I meant the after joke response, perhaps I should have explained in great detail.
Fair enough. Though I should also explain that I’m drunk and fairly indifferent to many things. My normal urge to poke a bruise is also amplified, if that’s useful info.
You missed the pedant joke in there? Well, it wasn’t very good anyway.
I refer you to exhibit a) Drunk and exhibit b) kinda apathetic no matter what
Also exhibit c) gotten to the point where even if I get it I’m going to be purposely obtuse, and isn’t it neat that obtuse refers to both people and angles?
Awww, you’re awfully acute when you’re drunk.
Right……
Oh, that was fucking perfect moose.
Isosceles coming from a mile away.
Archimedes a drink for me please.
Goddammit, you just couldn’t let it lie.
Uno Mas Por Favor. I said please, I should serve myself.
Gracias!
