Your “Commitment to Excrement” Late SNF Open Thread

With all due apologies to Rikki-Tikki-Deady  and Al Davis’ Re-Animated Corpse….

….for that post title.  Mostly because I don’t want either showing up here uninvited.

And also my apologies for my opinion below of how this game tonight is apt to go.

Please don’t cannibalize me in my sleep tonight.

That goes for you too, Al.

Oakland @ Miami  (+3.0, o/u 44.5)

OK, so neither of these teams is particularly inspiring any feelings of fear in their opponents recently, so something’s gotta give.

I’m not even going to discuss the Raiders’ D.  Yikes.  And offensively, they are a team with a battered and probably still in pain QB who has been humbled a bit recently, and three very mediocre backs.  How do I know they’re all mediocre (at best)?  Because they’ve all been on my freaking FF roster over the past two weeks.  Like seriously, all of them.  One of them twice (no shit lol).

I finally pulled the trigger and cut Lynch after his stupidity of pushing the official and picked up Washington.  Mostly because I thought he had the higher ceiling and that someone with higher waiver priority than me would likely snap up Richard ahead of me anyway.  They didn’t.  So then I had second thoughts and dropped Washington for Richard.  Then that didn’t work out so well (lol) so I dropped him and picked Washington back up.  He’s starting for me tonight, in fact.  smgdh.

tl:dr :  Fuck you Oakland backfield!!!!!

Miami ain’t so hot neither, though.  I know, that’s not news.  But they’re probably still solid enough on D to pretty much contain the stable of mediocrity thrown at them tonight.  And offensively, they do have the potential to at least put some points on the board now, especially if Cutler can find his way back to being even moderately effective.  The bar isn’t terribly high, Jay.  You can do it.  Even without Ajayi.  Especially against this Oakland D, I suspect.

So, what’s it all mean?

Well, if King Hippo  has any money left in his bank accounts before this one kicks off, I’d advise him take the points and the ‘Phins in this one, if only because of home field and the Raiders have literally been on the road for two weeks.  Also, probably take the under (lol).

Then again, I’m wrong a lot.

WHEN:  8:30pmEST

WHERE:  Hard Rock Stadium, Miami, FL

TV:  NBC

Alright, let’s get this one snapped alr…..

 

Shit.  Gimme a mulligan on that one, would ya?

Very close to dethroning Brocky in DFO ball, though.

Senor Weaselo

I imagine DFOball is like Calvinball but sexier.

BrettFavresColonoscopy

I mean, Hobbes never wore pants either

BrettFavresColonoscopy

That’s enough out of Cutler. He and Ameer Abdullah going off are the only way I lose this week

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

I pity the man who has to play against a quarterback facing the Raiders pass defense.

Wait. Was that a Jason Taylor Dolphins mascot?

Took an indica gummy for the first time ever last night. It was about the same as a shot of NyQuil. Was a little underwhelmed. Got it from a dispensary, did i just get some bunk shit, or is this normal? That was my first time using cannabis of any type.

Don’t do that, well, the five part…. do listen to Dark Side of the Moon

I saw them on the Animals tour in 1976 at the University of Houston stadium in the rain after I ate 13 mushrooms. No regrets.

Can confirm.

It takes a few times and some experimentation to figure out the effects and types you prefer.

Just watch the end of 2001 A Space Odyssey and try to act normally.

King Hippo

ugh, NOT LANDRY

King Hippo

YES. I am top scorer in the League, but still on precipice of losing now. To League’s biggest asshole (and Dolfan homer, who else would be starting Landry and Parker both?) 155 (Drake) to 139 (Landry, Parker, Cook) now.

King Hippo

That’s the Drake we all know and LOVE!

When did they put a roof on the Miami stadium (it’s had twenty names I don’t know what they call it now). That roof looks like an open-air stayed tarp – what the fuck do they do in a hurricane?

So I don’t remember if I made a joke about it on DFO Insider or not, but I was at least planning to have them talk about recasting the movie “Crazy Rich Asians” with white people. Lo and behold in real life the writer (of the original books) was asked by the studio how he’d feel if they changed the main character to a white female.

Where’s twbs’ SMH gif when you need it?

I don’t think the Dunge is quite comfortable with all this talk about RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRAM IT!!!

For the record, I’m not pleased this dickhead in Texas has my given name as his middle, and both associate with the Air Force.

I’m interested to see if there is any reaction or other message from SecAF or AFCoS in my inbox when I get into the office tomorrow morning.

JustStopDude

I heard he had a dirty discharge.

I’ll throw down money it involves sex crimes. Like rape or child porn my guess.

These white mass shooters always seem to be into kiddie porn.

Next, Al Michaels weighs in on stop-&-frisk policies.

Jay Cutler also has some thoughts on frisking policy in the United States.

Cats love it because two animals died for each delicious mouthful. Oh yeah.

King Hippo

This made me smile, which is why I am a cat person. HUZZAH, EVIL!!

JustStopDude

Oh my god I do not want to hear constitutional arguments in my football broadcast.

Furthermore, the league should love the distraction as everyone is freaking out over the fucking flag as opposed to I don’t know…the fact this game is so fucking brutal you have to be an idiot to ever let your kid play.

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

We’ve replaced all the Miami Dolphins players with human-sized figures made entirely out of grease. Let’s see if the Raiders defense notices.

I need to know more about this.

Moose -The End Is Well Nigh

I really like the “Don’t fucking touch me!”

ballsofsteelandfury

I think it’s fairly obvious, isn’t it?

Horatio Cornblower

Well, I know Arayane there got 60% of the votes.

ballsofsteelandfury

Lu Schiervane was a 38 year old singer that was eliminated by Arayane Steinkopf, a model known for her booty, in the 6th season of the Brazilian game show A Fazenda.

Lu was not a good sport and was jealous of Arayane’s good looks.

Doesn’t everyone know this?

Romonobyl

Ooooohhhh…“Lu” Schiervane!

Moose -The End Is Well Nigh

The show was not about talent.

Spur

That was NOT COOPER

Horatio Cornblower

I’m watching a rerun of UFC’s preliminary fights from last night instead of Miami-Oakland and I think I made the right decision.

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

Are they actually sanctioned fights or is it just meatheads swinging at each other in the parking lot before the main event?

Brick Meathook

I’d watch that

The Adventures of Young Harvey Weinstein is rated NC-17

I think they’d prefer Alien Tongue over HW.

The ones I’m watching are sanctioned but I’m not ruling out column B for later.

Seems like a good time to start a new show. Is The Leftovers any good?

if you use the toaster oven to heat the pizza instead of the microwave then yeah, they should be pretty good.

Moose -The End Is Well Nigh

Just don’t heat them too long; they’ll dry out.

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

Did you like Lost? Are you willing to take a chance that all the “mysteries” in the show are just writers writing themselves into corners? If the answer is yes, then sure, roll the dice.

Gratliff

I tapped out on Lost 6 episodes in. Judging by the reaction to the ending, I made the right choice.

Spur

No try . Atlanta, The Americans, Mr Robot. The Handmaiden’s Tale

Gratliff

Already two seasons in on the Americans. May as well see how long until it all falls apart.

Spur

did you watch stranger things? master of none?

Arrested development or Freaks and Geeks? Just asking.

I’ve already seen Scrubs and Parks & Rec. There’s no need to voluntarily add more Aziz Ansari to my life.

The Raiders defense has not had a single interception yet this season (it’s an NFL record). You’d think playing against Cutler would be the perfect medicine, but they won’t get one tonight either.

What the fuck just happened? I went to go smoke after the touchdown and somehow Miami only has six points and the ball back….

I thought daylight savings went an hour back, not a DAY ahead!

No Cris, that’s Adam Gase saying “Fuck it! Why not!”
