“You’re Not So Brave The Way You Behave” Saturday Evening Open Thread & Broadcast Maps

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.

Theoretically, there has to be a tipping point where putting more and more veggies on a pizza will eventually make it healthy. Where do you think that is?

King Hippo

The last one wasn’t bad. This’un, though…

What percentage of teenagers do you think would be desperate enough to get drunk off of only Campari, if that was all they were able to steal from their parent’s liquor cabinets?

theeWeeBabySeamus

All of my HS friends, if that’s of any help.

(huh, that probably explains a lot about me)

Sometimes you don’t have time to finish the work. One has to prioritize.

Doktor Zymm

So, I usually unpack pretty quickly, and it’s because I’m kinda compulsive about it. Just finished putting away bed linens and a couple bathrobes. Very happy to be reunited with my bathrobe collection!

Doktor Zymm

But what if I just really need a doctor to check out my ears, nose and throat?

theeWeeBabySeamus

If “safe word” is in the conversation, those orifices you mentioned are probably the least of your worries. Well, 2 out of 3 anyway.

SonOfSpam

It’s just your thing. Like beating off to Bass Pro Shop catalogs.

theeWeeBabySeamus

I’ll have you know I beat off to Women’s Day magazine, thank you very much.

Doktor Zymm

“Hey baby, those are some tasty looking canapes*, appropriate for a small gathering”

*Not a euphemism

SonOfSpam

Of course. Ladies Home Journal too. I mean, we all have a baseline.

King Hippo

that perch was ASKING FOAR IT

theeWeeBabySeamus

Hey!!! I almost never say that.

Doktor Zymm

Is crippling alcoholism something you can get one of those scooters from the government for?

Oh I got me a HOVEROUND. And you are paying for it.

Judd Nelson vs. Tommie Smith. Discuss.

Gratliff

Every DST, I look back and reflect on how grateful I am to no longer work in an industry that requires early Sunday morning shifts

Doktor Zymm

DST is weird for various jobs. Most bartenders I know love the fall one, cause it’s an extra hour of tips from people who have been drinking an extra hour

Gratliff

I’ve also held jobs where I worked through it. It is so much more punishing for first shift, though.

Doktor Zymm

Imma unpack this drink I made. It goes in my mouth

SonOfSpam

Please to explain further. Drink is what?

Doktor Zymm

Rye and soda. I ran out to the liquor store once my back started to hurt from unpacking

SonOfSpam

Excellent. Take care of your back. You only get one I think.

Doktor Zymm

It’s all good, just tired. I have pretty decent lifting/moving shit around posture. But it was for sure a cue to sit down and drink.

Doktor Zymm

I should just set my clocks back now, right?

King Hippo

I already has

Doktor Zymm

Once I get settled, I actually make a point to keep about half my clocks on each time.

Greetings from let’s say Mexico fellas.

Pacifico is plentiful. Everything else is overpriced. Tourists are awful. Americans are awful.

It’s warm and humid and poor here unless you’re where I am, then it’s tacky and expensive.

I love this and hate this and need to keep drinking to deal, thus my life is all this.

Miss y’all.

Doktor Zymm

Just drink until your vision blurs everything into averages

SonOfSpam

First two days here, without corporate people, were kinda great. Now I hate everything and everyone. But your advice is being followed to an extreme.

Did we lose MTWV?

theeWeeBabySeamus

A couple of us made mention of that recently. He has been MIA for a while.
I’m even more concerned about entropy, fwiw.

Doktor Zymm

Life happens and can get busy, hopefully it’s just that. Sadly no way to really tell without being creepy.

Shogun Marcus

As far as I can tell, he hasn’t been in the local news for any familial murderings, so that’s good.

Doktor Zymm

My grandma was an awesome lady, but she really hoarded doilies. I have a doily under my X-Box, under my monitor, wii, etc. You get the picture. Lots of doilies. Also, turns out that if you spill vodka on a starched doily the starch leaches out and fucks up the finish on your wood furniture. THANKS DOILY!

Doktor Zymm

Do I have to think about earthquakes when I’m storing my glassware, or is it just all going to break whatever I do and I should chill and have another drink? Should I have another drink regardless of the answers to the rest of that? Yes.

theeWeeBabySeamus

Depends on the magnitude and the type of glass.
Your stemware is pretty much fucked without bubble wrap regardless tho, so don’t even fret there.

Drink more and it won’t matter as much tho.

Doktor Zymm

It’s not a china cabinet, it’s a future source of broken glass to top my fence with!

theeWeeBabySeamus

That will come in handy for extra security to protect your stuff after the big one hits.
I love a good plan.

My brother’s cats jump on his bed whenever there’s an earthquake. They enjoy it.

OK, so while Hippo does his best to Jamestown us all tonight, Imma go get baked.
If I’m drinking the Kool-aid, I’m going out HAF.

Sorry….Jonestown.
Maybe I better not get baked after all.

A thing I’m proud of : I own a large brass candlestick you could legit bludgeon someone to death with, Clue style

WCS

So…. Dok Zymm, in the Hall, with the Candlestick.

I win.

Romonobyl

If Dok’s gonna bludgeon someone to death, a safe bet location-wise would likely be a pub or similar establishment.

Doktor Zymm

Nah, I don’t wanna make trouble for my local publican. Most places like that have a back alley.

theeWeeBabySeamus

If she’d made the move sooner, it could have been Dok Zymm, in Candlestick, with the Candlestick.

Brick Meathook

Oh yeah? I own a real 1920’s working Western Electric candlestick phone that you could legit bludgeon someone to death with and then use to call a lawyer.

Doktor Zymm

Some breakages, and they weren’t able to put my bed frame together cause some of the holes are too worn. I know how to fix that with toothpicks, but no idea where my toothpicks are. I will assemble the bed frame whenever I’ve got loads of other crap put away and have room to put my mattress in the living room while assembly happens.

Mattress + floor = sleep.

There’s a stray cat or two in the neighborhood. I heard ’em this morning, but no idea if it was fighting, fucking, or getting hit by a car or dog or what.

Romonobyl

The Dame just got back from the Greek Festival with her Pops and brought me a big bag of Koulourakia, my favourite cookie of all time.
She deserves a special reward at bedtime, by that I mean I’ll probably sleep on the couch.

Doktor Zymm

Got all my crap in my new place, and got a decent amount of stuff put away. My back is tired and I’m tired and I’ve gotten loads done today, so I am very happily sitting down with a rye and soda, in a glass I didn’t buy at Walmart to get me through the last week!

Good night for catching up on the indies. Never not impressed at everything Keith Lee does. Shame he didn’t start blowing up until he was in his 30’s. Almost no chance he’ll get signed to WWE and tear it up for 3 weeks before saying or doing something problematic that’ll piss off Twitter.

Yes, I saw Ohio State get their Buckeyes cracked, and to be honest, I’m not angry. If anything I’m relieved. I always knew they weren’t as great as everyone said, so at least its known so we can move on.

Its almost like watching a family member taking a job they can’t do or buying a house they can’t afford. You tell them they shouldn’t do it, but of course they don’t listen. When you finally hear they were fired or evicted, you’re not upset; you’re just content that it finally happened.

WCS

You voluntarily went to the state of Iowa?

Redshirt

No way. I have visited Michigan. I have visited Pennsylvania. I have even visited New Jersey. But not Iowa.

I saw it on TV. I quit to watch Thor 3. Watching the Goddess of Death earn her namesake was kind of cathartic in multiple ways.
