Your “Finally a Good Game!” SNF Open Thread

After the “games” we sat through today, we finally get a decent matchup tonight.  It’s too bad that we have to endure the incoherent ramblings of Cris Collinsworth, but we all have crosses to bear.

In non-football news, UCLA has fired Head Coach Jim Mora Jr. Thus begins another cycle of UCLA sucking balls while USC is good but not quite as good as they should be given the lack of competition.  Seriously, if anyone should go it’s the AD, Dan Guerrero.  The university has never committed to building a football program and has instead rested on the laurels of John Wooden by pretending to be a top basketball school.  How has that worked out?

Seriously, Trump should have let them rot in a Chinese jail.  Who the fuck thinks it’s a good idea to go to a foreign country and steal shit?  They should have been kicked out of the university for embarrasing themselves and everyone associated with UCLA.  But good old Dan Guerrero was the first one to thank Trump and has let the coach allow the players to “work” their way back onto the team.  To borrow a meme from tWBS:

Let’s move on to something surprisingly good:  THIS GAME!

The red-hot Philadelphia Eagles can give themselves a 4 loss lead with 6 games to play with a win over the Cowboys.  This is Game Two of Ezekiel Elliot’s suspension and no one has effectively come forward to make up for his absence.  If the Cowboys could lose to RAMMIT at home, they can get destroyed by Philly.

Hopefully, the Eagles can get out of this game with no injuries.  As you can see with the Cowboys, teams are way worse when key players are out and that diminishes the appeal of the game, the team, and the league.

BTW, if Jerry Jones can somehow can Goodell’s ass, I will be perfectly happy with the Boys winning the next 6 Super Bowls.  Call me Faust, I don’t care.

Get to it, you heathens!

Balls somehow lost his bio and didn't realize it. He's now scrambling to write something clever and failing. He likes butts, boobs, most things that start with the letter B, and writing in the Second Person. Geelong, Toluca, Barcelona, and Steelers, in that order.

MOAR 2 pt conversions!

Football getting better

King Hippo

hmmmm, it seems “run at the candy centre” of the DAL defense is effective

Romonobyl

I’ve been looking forward to Sunday football, but for some reason I just can’t get into it today.
I’m getting fucking old.

litre_cola

Too much roast beef?

blaxabbath

So are the brains of the players.

litre_cola

Yep, woke up Decilitre yelling at the tv.

Keep a screaming pillow nearby. Works for me.

If it was sentient; my pillow would be screaming.

With everything going on tonight, I’ve been in and out watching this. Why was a linebacker (?) kicking-off for the Iggles?

Gratliff

Superboy got concussed

WCS

Define “Superboy.”

Mr. Ayo

Pat Mcafee will have a tweet about it shortly no doubt.

Gratliff

Kicking’s gonna be a panic fest. Yay.

Mr. Ayo

Linebacker kick-off!
This game is going to get weird.

litre_cola

I blame beer.

theeWeeBabySeamus

Hehe

Mr. Ayo

What an asshole

theeWeeBabySeamus

Dammit, it’s cold out again.
I really need to consider buying some long pants this year I guess.

Pederson has been on the path to being a head coach ever since Andy Reid came up to him on the sideline and said “You got the second half.”

No one had the heart to tell Doug that Andy was actually asking him if he had the second half of Andy’s Subway six-foot party sub.

Shogun Marcus

Was that back in Green Bay? Cuz that would’ve been tough, holding the clipboard AND the sammich!

litre_cola

That was a fucking cagey 2pt conversion.

King Hippo

I would have bet anything on QB draw

hippofant

I hate that play so much. There’s no way it ever works without WRs blocking early, but it’s never called.

litre_cola

This time I am A-OK with it.

King Hippo

GAMBLOR GAMBLOR, why have you forsaken me??

Horatio Cornblower

Buddy, if you’re betting on the Cowboys GAMBLOR cannot help you.

Gratliff

Sports are good again

If someone were to be the big witness that flipped on some NFL lawsuit that provided the key to destroying The Shield, that someone would hopefully be Michelle Tafoya.

Gratliff

Those stat lines are terrifying

blaxabbath

In the QT app commercial, does the QT lady say, that was “impressive” or “aggressive”?

Romonobyl

I never understood why folks spend a fortune visiting family for T-Giving only to do it again about a month later. Those two holidays could use a little breathing room.

Mr. Ayo

It’s helpful with divorced parents. And expensive.

blaxabbath

We’re gonna host for the first time ever this year to about 8. Our place isn’t huge though so I’m not gonna do a totally enormous spread.

Horatio Cornblower

A Toyota car won teh NASCAR racing vroom vroom title?

Parcells isn’t gonna like that.

So what do you all cook at Christmas? My fam just did turkey and bought a honey baked ham if we had a lot of guests.

litre_cola

Meth.

Romonobyl

Blue Christmas?

Shogun Marcus

How…does it feel?

Mr. Ayo

Prime Rib

blaxabbath

Oh really? That sounds really good.

theeWeeBabySeamus

Usually more or less the same as Thanksgiving.

LemonJello

If it’s just the immediate House LemonJello, we mix it up – ham, turkey, steaks have all been done. If we’re hosting extended family, we’ll go with turkey and ham with all the sides and fixins.

Brick Meathook

Starting around ‘74 we cooked one of the new immigrant kids in the neighborhood. No one ever noticed.

WCS

That was the Bungles’ first win outside Ohio since Week 1 last year? Holy Cripes.

blaxabbath

Must be something in the water.

Romonobyl

I’m about to find out if it’s possible to eat too much pot roast with all teh veggies. Wish me luck.

Please let the Chargers make the playoffs and just get murdered at home by a wild card.

...

Magary had both RAMMIT and the Chargers in the playoffs in his preseason predictions.

blaxabbath

That’s just the biggest reward to the most terrible human being owners.

blaxabbath

I’m okay with limiting the number of players/lengths of td celebrations. These are already wearing thin,

NBC widely not going with “what make America….great.”

Unsurprised
Horatio Cornblower

You can tell Switzer’s from North Carolina; just caught the ball at the 27 and ran 30 yards back and forth before getting tackled at the 26.

theeWeeBabySeamus

Also, he’s a huge dickhead.
Which makes it even easier to tell he’s from U*NC.

blaxabbath

Oh wow! So are we not buying RAMMIT this year. Just beating up a weak conference and an easy schedule?

litre_cola

Hippo is still driving the bus.

theeWeeBabySeamus

He’s also driving the bus to hell.
Sooooo….just saying.

King Hippo

We like to RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRAM IT!!! yeah!

Spur

that was an INT with a chance to return it

King Hippo

way to drop 3 points, dickhead

Spur

Philly has no kicker – ATTACK!

Dunstan

White House sources say that the turkey to be pardoned by President Trump is named “Jared”

Viva La Tabula Raza

I read somewhere (maybe even here) that in his efforts to undo everything Obama accomplished, the eight turkeys pardoned by Obama have been executed. It wouldn’t surprise me.

King Hippo

YES, praise GAMBLOR!!! Ded kicker

theeWeeBabySeamus

You went moneyline on this one, yes?

King Hippo

yep

Gratliff

Insurmountable lead

Brocky

-Carson Wentz from the medical tent

LemonJello

Trent Green smiles wistfully, nods once, immediately pisses himself.

blaxabbath

So PHI isn’t amazing. Did RAMMIT play?

Gratliff

Not really.

King Hippo

Just Minny and Odd Week Jaguras

King Hippo

all that dinner!

Hello blueberry my old friend. I’ve come to smoke on you again.

Anime porn in the ’90s was pretty weak.

I didn’t know if the Simpsons could be considered an anime

King Hippo

watch on teh teevee box like a proper old man!

Unsurprised

This is not the level of quality and competence I have come to expect from either NFL or Verizon, let alone acting together

Brick Meathook

DirecTV Now online streaming does the same thing. I would read things on the liveblog that made no sense and then I’d see it 2 minutes later.

Gratliff

The christian fundie flat earther again looked like the best wrestler in the world. Now if only the Iggles would stop sucking all the dicks.

blaxabbath

It’s funny that we talk about Neilson ratings like they matter anymore. Like using the Presidential Fitness Test as a standard for our nation’s health. Private corporations know 10,000 times more about our viewing habits than a sample of a few midwestern households.

Dunstan

Yeah, it’s pretty clear that America abandoned any fitness test for its president last fall. HIYOOO!

Unsurprised

Oldest, fattest, dumbest president,,, ppl forget that.

Viva La Tabula Raza

I still think Taft was the fattest. But Trump is 4 times as stupid, so it’s a wash.

Romonobyl

They say that the best day in a man’s life is when his child is born, his girlfriend says “yes” or some other drivel. Fuck that, the best day in a man’s life (probably a woman’s as well) is when he thinks he finished his last beer only to find one more buried way back in the fridge.
Oh happy day indeed!

Spur

rod smith is running better. he needs more touches.

theeWeeBabySeamus

Yes, give rod touches.

Spur

Rodgers, that you?

Shogun Marcus

Nope, just your mom.
