Your “Somebody’s Backing Into a .500 Record Tonight!” NFL Football Open Thread

We had our first significant snowfall last night/into the morning and let me tell you, I don’t miss that stuff at all. Services in my community and along the highway snowplow-wise are dying The Death of a Thousand Cuts. What this seems to mean out this way is that only the main roads are taken care of so it’s a bit of a struggle to get to them. Since I’ve never ended up in a ditch I still giggle when I happen to pass by some unfortunate putz that wasn’t driving according to the conditions. [thinks of a painfully godawful segue] You know who else isn’t driving very well lately? The Dallas Offense! HAH! Let’s go…TO THE GAME!

Dallas/Washington: This NFC East Battle Royale for second place way, way behind the Eagles is sponsored by the good folks of Montreal because it’s Just For Laughs. The winner gets the 6-6 tiara and the brief hope that they be relevant in the wild card race for another week. After Zeke took a league-mandated break the Cowboys run game has fallen apart. I mean that Alfred Morris is so bad… [looks at his yards per carry average of 5.8] Ah…so bad that they only give him 12 touches a game! Yeah, that’s it. Sure does seem that the thinking of OC Linehan changed and he said, “It’s your team, Canned Ham, let’s see what you can do!”. What the DAK!-ster has responded with is 5 picks in the last two games. If I’m not mistaken, he threw 4 all last year-so perhaps he’s a not-ready-for-prime-time player. As mentioned in this very space before, the Dacteds are suffering from a wee injury apocalypse. Captain Kirk Cousins is one of only three fellas on O that has started every game and is surprisingly (to me) second in the league in passing yards. So you fantasy dudes might want to start a certain Crowder kid at the wr spot if y’all have him. He’s given 100+ yards of O for the last 4 in a row. And double down on Sammy Perine, will you?

That was my time-now it’s yours.

Well, the FIFA World Cup Draw was something that happened. For the most part, the groups are balanced. There’s no real Group of Death, which sucks.

I’m trying to figure out how Poland and Argentina were given Group champ slots. Poland isn’t the greatest and Argentina needed a borderline miracle to qualify.

Argentina and Nigeria are attached to the hip, as this is the 5th time they’ve been paired together since 1992.

I haven’t seen cousins pounded that hard since the time I visited Alabama.

The Cousins-Alabama jokes are so old Roy Moore wouldn’t hit on it.

Unsurprised

He dated the joke when he was a DA in his thirties.

“Blazing Saddles” is on AMC right now. It is edited beyond humour’s capacity to compensate.

I realize not all Americans are delicate flowers, but the masses inability to process dirty words is why no one can take you seriously.

There’s no point in any Mel Brooks movie being on TV. I also saw an ad for National Lampoons Christmas Vacation to air on TV. Another one that is going to be chopped to shit.

I think where I gave up was “Son of a buck Godfather they shot him!”

It was all downhill from there

Not even worth watching. Glad I own both movies.

What the YouTube posters below don’t realize is that the Coen Bros, Goodman, and Bridges intentionally came up with the ridiculous replacement dialogue.

I. . . can’t even fathom what Blazing Saddles would sound like if it was edited for a 2017 PC family

It would start where Cleavon Little rides into town, then it cuts to the end where he and Gene Wilder head off to nowhere special.

Ice Liouns’ Daniel Sedin got point 1000 tonight. He has had one hell of a career. It’s a shame most of the media out there didn’t even notice it.

Sharkbait

HoF for sure.

Wakezilla

Definitely. It’ll probably take a couple of tries though.

Greg Zaun got fired. That’s good.

He got fired for sexual harassment. That’s not surprising. He had a rep.

Alright, night dickjokers. Gotta wake up at 6 for dental work. Can’t even take the Hippo-endorsed fun stuff since I have to go right to the office afterwards. Yaaaaay.

I do the tri annual cleaning to avoid the deep cleaning shit because that shit sucks.

“In North Carolina, a legislative panel has agreed on a bill which guarantees a murder victim’s family two front-row seats to watch the execution. The ruling has angered both North Carolina’s death penalty opponents AND death penalty season ticket holders.”

“In New York, state-of-the-art self-cleaning toilets may soon appear on city streets. In a survey, New Yorkers expressed their enthusiasm for the outdoor toilets, noting that they are very easy to urinate on.”

Could’ve used one today. Had a rehearsal at Riverside Church, no toilet paper in the stalls, and I was uncomfortable throughout Messiah!

Senor Weaselo

(Because I held it. Not other reasons.)

Sure, sure….. way to add. We know you did the dog crawl on the carpet behind the planter.

“Los Angeles Rams owner Georgia Frontiere announced this week that her football team is moving to St. Louis. The good news for the Rams is that, changing cities, the ticket sales will increase and more people will pack the stadium. The bad news for the Rams is: they will still suck.”
