Your “This is why we do Color Rush” Thursday Night Football Open Thread

Nothing brings excitement to the air like the anticipation of Arizona/Seattle national games!

‘member kickers missing everything in overtime ties? The NFC West ‘members.

The battle for mid-tier rights in a garbage division turns the dial all way up to seven tonight as Russell Wilson and his Duane Brown-reinforced invisible offensive line prepare for a shootout with Adrian Peterson and “The Quarterback Who Held Off BLAINE GABBERT”, Drew Stanton. Aging-but-solid backfields for both squad should provide explosive hits in novelty uniforms and adequate fodder for I HAVEN’T SEEN TWO UGLIES BUMP THIS HARD SINCE _____ takes. So slap on your Kangol and jam an entire Fruit By The Foot into your mouth (just like you jam that Loose Change DVD into your Xbox) and get ready for some football-on-3-days-rest!


This Gen Stat of the Game:

 


Seahawks/Cardinals: Vegas has SEA -5.5 (O/U 41.5). A final score of 18 to 25 seems quite implausible in the modern NFL but it does kind of make sense for these two teams. The redbirds D is a competent matchup for the Seahawks while Arizona’s Drew Stanton-led offense appears (to this sports expert’s surprise) to be alright with focusing on just handing the ball to Adrian Peterson. Seattle (5-3) is a game behind RAMMIT after falling at home to the [*Redacted] s while the Cardinals (4-4) are a paper swan — with half their wins having come against SF –who need to, starting tonight, double-up on SEA and beat RAMMIT during DFO-con to have any real shot at a tie-breaker-based division title playoff birth.


Fantasy Notes: Eddie Lacy is out (groin/overactive chewing) so you’re gonna want to plug n play Thomas Rawls (or, not — ARI has a strong rush D). Dion Jordan is expected to make his first appearance for Seattle because, hey, it’s been a few years since Pete Carroll has gotten some production out of an injury-prone headcase. Only Arizona player worth starting is Peterson so, naturally, I have Fitz plugged in and expect JJ Nelson to record 75% of Drew Stanton 165 yards on the YACs of two passes.

I sat on a jury years ago, 2nd degree attempted murder case. One day the defendant wore sneakers with his suit to court. It was that day I knew he was guilty.

I sent you a message on twitter Grat concerning the bye week.

Dammit Pitt.
Go sit in the corner and think about what you just did.

King Hippo

How bad is it? I just have NFL game on radio and this here blog on phone.

theeWeeBabySeamus

Dude was literally crossing the goal line, would have given Pitt a 24-21 halftime lead. Fumbles at the goal line, Holes return it back to the Pitt 40(ish) with about a minute in the half. Fortunately they’re so inept they only got 3 out of it. 24-17 Holes lead at the half.

litre_cola

Did you guys know that Jimmy Graham used to play bocce ball?

Spur

Pete Carroll choose those colors because he thinks the Lizard People can’t see it the ultraviolet spectrum. It’s just a test run, let’s see who complains to the FCC.

Does Nike really hate Seattle this much? Because that’s the only explanation for this color.

King Hippo

Maybe. But RW seems like he wants to keep his’n thumbs.

Spur

Is this what those early X-File message boards were like?

JustStopDude

No…there was more slash fiction postings going on about Mulder and Cancer Man…

I want to believe in this comment.

I hope the NFL eventually decides to go with tie-dye uniforms on the Color Rush nights.

That’s all I can think about when I see that ad. Tis like smell-o-vision.

I feel for Trump. The Russians clearly hacked us last night and now we deal with change and like an old crazy person we do not deal with it well.

Spur

Louie C.K. is a dick puller too? I heard the rumors but i was thinking he did that when he was younger. Not to justify but young people are dumb.

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

“But boy did they flip the field there with that fumble…”

Yeah, Cris. That was really fucking exciting to see them gain a field position advantage.

How did the SeaTruthers not score for Hippo? Shitfuckasses.

My 8-1 money league side has Alfred Morris and as of the 8pm waivers, Rod Smith.

I’m ok with it.

If I wasn’t so new here and feeling it’s not really my place to criticize at this point, I would be paraphrasing Prince “Gonna have a website like it’s 1999.” But I am so I won’t.

This is not a new layout guys.
Things really did get broken last night. Kinda badly from my understanding. Most plug ins/coding had to be scrapped for now.

Internet Dad hasn’t had time to reconstruct the commenting platform yet. But it’s temporary.

That’s what they said about Michael Jackson in 1988 and look what happened.

Hey Spur, did you get my reply msg re: Vegas?

Yes, thank you. I’ll give you a ring a couple days before.

Honestly, this seems like the worst layout thus far.

I went to the movies today for the first time in about 3 years. It was the new Blade Runner film. A couple of thoughts…

1) HOLY SHIT ARE MOVIES EXPENSIVE AS FUCK NOW! I do not get why anyone would go to the movies on a regular basis. It was like $35 for a single ticket, small popcorn, and a medium soda.

2) The film itself was fantastic, except the theater did not have their sound system set up right. So basically I could have had a better experience on my own set up, for a lot cheaper.

3) There were only three other people to see the flick, which considering it was a Thursday afternoon, I don’t think is all that surprising. I doubt I was the only person not in retirement.

That said, reading up on the box office returns on the flick, its been a major money loss for the studio which is especially depressing considering the previews for the film which consisted of the following:

Another retarded Pacific Rim film that will do insane returns in the Chinese markets because the films are stupid and easy to dub.

A remake for Death Wish by Eli Roth, starring Bruce Willis. Someone please make an argument as to why this film needs to happen.

Yet another Liam Neeson revenge, brutal action movie (I refuse to believe that “The Commuter” will have anything in it to distinguish it from the “Liam Neeson’s family gets murder-raped: the Series” franchise.

Another Disney-Pixar movie that looks depressingly like the same thing.

And another revenge-murder action film that left such an impression that I cannot tell you the name or who is acting in it.

Oh and another Star Wars film that is certain to be utterly stupid and make insane money…Star Wars is the equivalent of cinematic Oxycontin at this point.

I’ve never been one to believe in the argument that US society is sick or something but I swear to god, it seems like every fucking film coming out now involves incredibly stupid revenge-murder spree shit, which I cannot help but think that this is why Americans are both remarkable stupid and we have a constant rate of mass shootings.

I’m getting old and bitter. I used to love movies, especially when I first got into the military and I was on a rotating training shift. So I would end up like once every two weeks where I had to stay up for 30 hours straight to flip my sleep…so i would just go to a movie theater all evening long. Its just staggering how bad films have gotten.

I don’t get how a single movie theater stays open other than the ones that specialize in art films.

Viva La Tabula Raza

Why is Leave a Reply at bottom of page now instead of top? And prompt no longer says “Make Some More Dick Jokes?” I’m new here, but I still hate change because I’m getting old….

Sharkbait

He hates change! He’s one of us!

Things got interesting last night and things got brokeded.
Totally not my fault no matter what anyone says, fwiw. I never gave Ukrainian call girls my password.

Spur

...

The news about Roy Moore should remind us of former House Speaker Dennis Hastert who would only be condemning Moore because Moore preferred girls.

King Hippo

That reminds me of what my ex-wife said when I asked her if she had heard about these shenanigans – “I was only surprised it wasn’t a 14-year old boy.”

theeWeeBabySeamus

Tough but fair.

theeWeeBabySeamus

Yay foar embedding tho.

How is embedding done in this new world? i see the https trick doesnt work anymore

Thought about betting on the Holes b/c FML, but the line moved from 10 to 9 before I could get my money in, and I were annoyed.

Your head would have exploded if you’d bet on them.

And just the fact that you thought about doing so proves my point.
