So, I think I have the mood of the Commentists correct when I say that the only thing we hope for from today’s Conference title games is that Alabama gets kept out of the playoff, right? I forget who brought up Bamafreude last week & its relation to Patriots schadenfreude, but I agree with the general sentiment. It’s hard to say who’s more contemptible – Belichick or Saban. They’re both masters of fucking the rules, but Belichick at least has to worry about a capricious commissioner whereas Saban doesn’t have to worry about a salary cap.
I also kinda don’t want Wisconsin to get in, just so I don’t have to deal with a million cuts during the game to JJ Watt air-humping a Badger on the sideline. But that’s just me. However, if it came down to Alabama or Wisconsin then I say let JJ wreck another joint.

they broked the Gravy Boat!!
JFC, divert the gravy money to some non life threatening turf.
Stupid Boise
Stupid Sexy Boise?
It’s in Idaho, so, no.

Boise making its move…
Reminding myself why I have watched almost no B1G footbaw this season.
Wise strategy.
It’s like Bengals/#ThePauls, on constant loop
OSU receivers doing their best to make sure hte game stays within reach for Wiscy
Fresno’s punter is doing really good work.
Either El Chapo has Da U players families hostage or the players have secretly been replaced by the Browns, cause this game is not good.
They have lost their #1 rb, #1 te, and #1 wr, they dont have much left.
“That’s not how you…aw, you just do you, sweetie.”
I never would’ve imagined that two plates of salmon stir fry would have be stupid full.
This is good, but oh geez. I think I gained a little weight around Thanksgiving. I’m just on the edge of being able to buy 42″ pants, which is great because that’s the cutoff for non-big&tall men’s clothes at most places, so I want to have that under my belt (heh) by Christmas.
Of course, I’ve lined in Oregon for over five now and I just the other day bought boots for winter to walk through the rain and the one time it’ll snow in January. So my progress in self-improvement is uneven and sometimes pretty slow. But at least I’m trying.
Anyway, it’s better for me to walk off being full. So I’ll be back in a little while.
Salmon stir fry? Go on.
1 plate, 2 walks.
Do they have reaction videos for that?
Hey Unsurprised have you bought any oil yet? My wife has started taking CBD oil for back pain and it works like a charm.
Shit. I forgot. I should go out and get it now. I was also waiting to see how much cash I still have, and I should have enough.
I like it with a bit of THC too cuz I like a bit of a buzz. She just wants the muscle relaxant in pure CBD
Sweet! HBO is doing an Andre the Giant documentary.

Some enterprising DFOer should wager on DaU to not score in the 2nd half.
That was a hell of a catch by Wisco

I have to fly tomorrow (surprise). Do I bother wearing my Bears jersey to the airport since I’ll be traveling midgame?

They’re hungry young players. In fact, they’re playing for a giant sub sandwich.

How goes Vegas? Anyone in jail? Unconscious? Robbed by a drag queen prostitute? Sitting in a bathtub full of money? Playing nickel slots? Just drinking and watching TV in the sports book?
Sitting in a bathtub full of ice with no memory?
Sitting in a bathtub full of ice with no memory and one fewer kidney
and no kidney
That was implied.
Oh in a bathtub of ice with no memory and a kidney is a sunday morning when I was single.
It’s probably for the best that you don’t remember how you kept getting those kidneys.
The latter right now. Dok’s doing her usual poker thing. I’m just getting warmed up.
Which casino are you in?
Seems about right for New Hampshire.

He took the saying “riding the gravy train with biscuit wheels” a little too literally.

Yeah, why would the defense care I am here? If my namesake is playing as poorly as I did, nobody cares if he is on the field.
And that’ll do it.
Bucky the Badger is gonna go rabid with these big plays
Tosu just gonna win with big plays, huh?
I am four beers into my evening, and am awaiting the start of “teddy bear toss” night at the Everett Silvertips game. There’s lotsa hockey moms aboot.
Classic minor league promo. Never gets old.
Yep. Using tonight to set the table for the Seahawks tomorrow night.
Tracy Sprinkle might be the most incongruous football player name ever.
Wiscy has been slow-starting all year, but jebus.
Just saw Jimbo Fisher to get guarented 75 mil for ten years at A&M. That is ridiculous.
Aggie fans/alumni won’t let him see the full term if’n he can’t win them a championship.
Fuck that.
There will be regrets in the coming years.

Aayyy, that-a Bosa made-a good play-a!
Just stumbled back from the company Christmas party at the historic Hotel Roanoke (which is a really cool hotel that Trump hates).
A field engineer of ours who is from China asked me to sit with him and his wife (he speaks almost no English and has spent very little time in the US) and they got a whole table by themselves. They just moved to the US for the company and know no one. I like the guy so fuck it (and even if I didn’t) I sit with them. I meet his wife, who is somehow from Brazil and speaks no English and limited Chinese. The poor wife has no idea what is going on kind of. Can’t really talk to anyone but her husband. Well fuck that…there has to be someone that can talk to her…. 5 minutes later, I got a coworker that speaks no English but knows Spanish and Portuguese so I grab her to sit with us.
Fucking blast (the company pays for an open bar). Talking football, politics, booze, various other weird topics.
God I could not work for a company that doesn’t pay for open bars. As much shit I talk about work, I really love the company I work for.
Sharkbait-resume.pdf incoming
At one point, I shit you not, a joke had to go through four people to get everyone to laugh.
If my polish coworker made a joke, I had to put it into Spanish, to the lady in accounting to put it into Portuguese, which the wife put it into Chinese.
Fart jokes are the easiest.
Man, is the name of your company BabelTower LLC?
Its a company that does those Mega Projects on the history channel (in between the Ancient Aliens episodes).
You need the best people. You can’t just go with one country.
That’s very cool. If I’m correctly thinking of the projects to which you refer, those make the hangars, aircraft beddowns, and airfields I do for the USAF seem pretty ho-hum…
Honestly…some of them are fucking depressing. Like glory projects for gulf coast country dictators or steel mills in rural china that will never do any production because the central government demanded it 20 years ago and the market can’t support it.
“But no one there at your table spoke Brazilian. How’d that work?”
—90% of Americans
JSD, I think you’ve mentioned it before, but how many languages can you use?
/Wishes that one of my skills was with languages
https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/the-switch/wp/2017/11/15/i-tried-out-googles-translating-headphones-heres-what-i-found/?utm_term=.d520eb8e51b1
My old man was a Jesuit priest when he met my mom and drop from the priesthood. (my mom was Jewish so you can imagine the massive amount of abuse she took from my grandmother).
Growing up, I was expected to be fluent in my parents’ languages. So my mom, it was Yiddish (which is just plan fucking weird) and for my dad, English, Latin, and Hebrew.
Latin basically gives you a lot of access to the romance languages like Spanish and French. My Spanish is bad. Its mainly Chicano slang. It is functional but you got to be careful with it in South America. My French is okay. I have the least comfort with Portuguese.
I can read very good. Speaking, I am terrible. I have a very bad speak impediment. My stuttering is very bad. In English, it doesn’t come out unless I am tired, but in other languages, its right in force.
Other languages, I can speak general Hindi, Tamil, and Urday. They have a LOT of English words so its cheating kind of.
A lot of it is just recognizing the differences in sentence structure.
So is Boise’s QB relatedd to Mark Rypien? I know nothing about these teams.
yes, can’t recall if direct spawn or nephew
Fucking TACKLE the guy with the ball, Badgers.
Pass Interference is now legal
decline that, Fresno
I still have hope for my Miami moneyline bet.
Admittedly, not much.
