NFL News:
- Suspension updates:
- George Iloka’s has been reduced to a fine.
- The appeal was based on Brown landing crooked & turning his head prior to the hit, making helmet-to-helmet contact almost unavoidable.
- The Chiefs have suspended Marcus Peters for Sunday’s game.
- because he left the field of play while the game was on.
- Andy Reid must be hoping Darrelle Revis finally has his wind back.
- Big Ben doesn’t think JuJu Smith-Schuster should’ve been suspended.
- He compared it to Gronk’s suspension, which – if nothing else – creates dreaded “bulletin board material” ahead of their Week-15 matchup.
- What Mr. Informed Consent seems to be forgetting is that if he’d made the hit & walked away then probably. But posing & celebrating turned it into a targetting penalty.
- Of course, he also publicly said he respects the Ravens more than the Bengals.
- He compared it to Gronk’s suspension, which – if nothing else – creates dreaded “bulletin board material” ahead of their Week-15 matchup.
- George Iloka’s has been reduced to a fine.
- No updates & more testing for Ryan Shazier.
Thank you for the prayers. Your support is uplifting to me and my family. #SHALIEVE

Finally, because the Seahawks asked, Neil deGrasse Tyson gave a scientific explanation of how the Russell Wilson lateral was a legal play, according to the laws of physics and the rules of the NFL.
FYI: The lateral that @DangeRussWilson threw to @MikeDavisRB in Sunday’s @Seahawks @Eagles game was a legit “Galilean Transformation”. In their reference frame, the ball went backwards. It’s not their fault they ran forward faster than the ball. pic.twitter.com/DHUKNtlcyj

As least it wasn’t worse, like Pete Carroll asking about the melting temperature of steel beams. I don’t feel like explaining it, but a “Galilean Transformation” is the same type of fancy explanation one could’ve used to describe the “Music City Miracle”. If you require a better explanation than that (but why would you?), si.com has you covered.
Of course, there’s always some asshole that has to go and create further controversy:
Great. Now, what's a catch, and could you forward this explanation to @Ed_Hochuli

The AFFL, or American Flag Football League, announced this week that it will host a US Open of Football with more than $2 million in game prizes. The league is preparing “for a 1,024-team tournament that will ultimately pit “America’s Champion,” or the best of registered amateur squads, against one of four professional clubs.” Leading three of these professional clubs?
- Michael Vick
- Chad Johnson
- Marshall Faulk
With $99 per-player registration now open on the league’s website, the AFFL “will oversee seven-on-seven, single-elimination play all the way through next summer, when four different regions made up of 256 different teams will be whittled down to an unofficial Elite Eight — four amateur finalists and four professional teams, the best of whom will square off for a $1 million grand prize on July 19.” You know what this means?
Bill Parcells will not be getting Chinese food tonight, no offence to the Orientals.

I’ve been taking this CBD oil for a few days now, increasing it to the standard dose. I haven’t really felt different, but I have this sense that I’ve been less depressed. My sleep is all fucked up and so it’s kind of hard to say how that is interacting with it.
In a just world, data leaks would be punishable with prison time and huge punitive seizures.

It’s a damn shame that laws haven’t caught up with this bullshit.

Spalding Gray was a porn star!?!
BTW, this is maybe the most depressing webpage I’ve ever read: The IAFD’s dead stars index. http://www.rame.net/faq/deadporn/index.html
Better him than Spaulding Smails.
“She only wore a lap belt, as a shoulder belt was uncomfortable across her giant breasts”
That’s kinda funny.
Holy balls, other people’s conversations are fucking stupid
This would be a great life if it weren’t for all the people.
Perfectly normal, perfectly healthy.

I don’t recall December being fucking fire season except in Australia.
It’s always fire season in America until 2021
You’re optimistic. I’m not sure he’s going to step down after his second term.
Ok, this is driving me nuts. What’s the name of the coach who had all the fun things taken away during the preseason? I’ve come up with nothing from Google. But I know some dick head coach did this. I’m guessing it was either Rammit or Buffalo’s coach
I thought it was 5Chan. My other vote would be Doug Marrone.
Coughlin, when he came in to advise … Shit. Whatshisface. Jaguras.
Buffalo.
TWBS, you should do an August Ames tribute for sexy Friday. I’m sure there has been a few of us that have gone on our knees, thought about her until our salvation left our bodies.
Or just Canadian stars in general. I didn`t know she was Canadian.
There are some great Canadian porn stars. Her, Capri Cavalli/Cavanni, Alyssa Reece, uh …
http://www.data18.com/pornstars/canadian.html
Ha! “Diamond Forever.” What a great name. Shame she looks like a meth addict.
Peter North a.k.a. “The Decorator”
House painter.
She is. Canadian women are hot, and so are our Canadian pornstars. Surprisingly, there aren’t a lot from Vancouver.
With all due respect to the late Ms. Grabowski (and I really do mean that sincerely, fwiw), I have enough problems already without going down the porn star roads.
I listened to a review of Runaways and apparently the Atlas Foundation was mentioned at one point. This is great because Agents of Atlas was a great comic and would make for a great movie or series.
I don’t know what this is, but I’m intrigued
It was originally a Timely two-fisted sci-fi comic in the fifties before it became Marvel. Somehow, the characters didn’t really catch on when Stan and Jack created the modern Marvel heroes in the early 60s. A decade ago, the characters were brought back in a couple of new series but it never really found an audience, but those of us who did read it enjoyed the Hell out of it.

An Atlantean, a generic superhuman, a siren, a kung fu emperor, a killer robot, a gorilla-man (OOK OOK! MOTHERFUCKERS!), and a man from Uranus.
So this is some unnerving shit, my phone is going crazy with alerts about epic winds and fire danger including my area all the way down to Long Beach. We’re fine but it’s windy and my car was covered with ash leaving work tonight.
The fire near UCLA on the West side is about 14 miles away. The moon just came up and it’s blood red because of the smoke in the air.
I’ve mentioned this before but if you live in LA, live as close to the ocean as possible and be surrounded with as much concrete as you can.
Fucking Santa Anas man.
Fucking Santa Anas man.
I think Randy Newman wrote a song about that.
Anyway, stay safe, pal.
Thanks. There’s so much smoke in the air that it smells like Memphis in May.
Or, my brother’s place two months ago!
(Brother lives in San Francisco)
So it was flaming two ways.
My brother did a shoot in Malibu this morning. I bet those are going to be some interesting photos.
EDIT (quoting “Ansel”):
No doubt. They were surrounded by the Ventura fire and the fire in Bel Air.
One of the hard parts was just getting home from Vegas and my skin is lizard skin, the sinuses are screaming for humidity and the wind advisory goes through Saturday night.
Guess it’s time to start drinking in self defense.
Capital idea!

Warriors win. Yea!
Gonna go smoke then have a movie night with a friendly new girl.
Cheers!
Reading that August Ames is dead, I kept getting stuck on the fact she was only 23. Jesus.
But that’s like 51 in porn years. I mean, who’s that?
googol says her “full name” is Mercedes Grabowski. Not sure which one is real and which is fake.
Yeah, I had no idea what he real name was and genuinely wondered if that was a joke.
Having just turned 51 two days ago….fuck you. LOL.
Also, I’m happy to be 23 in non-porn years if I can make such a deal.
Satan, where are you when I really need you?
How did she die?
Airplane crash?
No idea.
https://avn.com/business/articles/video/august-ames-passes-away-753019.html
Suicide more than likely.
No, I’m not trying to be funny.
I hope not. I was praying for her and her step-daughter the other day.
Wait what? She’s dead? How? Drugs or plastic surgery? Also, HOW THE SHIT WAS SHE ONLY 23?
She started doing porn when she really was 18.
She repeatedly fucked up her face with surgery, but at least she died with those perfect breasts unaltered.
WOOOOO GOLF SEASON STARTS IN FOUR MONTHS!
If Marvel made this into a movie and used this as the poster I would totally go see it.
Not me.
Put some iron in that girl’s hands and let her fight!!! She can squeeze manboob later.
Maybe she’s reaching behind his back for another gun?
Tex was ravaged by untreated syphilis.
He got it off a recently used Mr. Purdify’s Goat-fucking Bondage Machine.
But it wasn’t a very happy birthday for Race Bannon. He’s hardly touched his birthday kaboom.
Well, what are you waiting for? Somebody to kiss you goodbye?
Well… no, no I guess not.
It has said about 44 minutes remaining for an hour. Except for when it says 43 minutes remaining. Senor is slightly irked.
It’s because it’s looking at all the naughty pictures you looked at.
The only thing Team DFO is competing in (and most likely winning) is Beerfest.
So my job doing the training, I interact with a crazy number of people, all over the world. I can say this with full honesty and no malice, the worst people I run into are my fellow fucking vets, specifically the guys that do like 20 or 30 years for their pension.
I can see them coming from a mile away and every fucking time I know I am going to be having issues all week long.
Why is that?
Hmm, maybe updating my computer when I have things to do on my computer wasn’t such a brilliant idea.
My favorite is when it automatically updates for you, right when you’re logging off and need to go somewhere, yet the CPU threatens you that it’ll completely die if you unplug the power cord. It’s quite the hostage situation.
You really have to feel for Paul Ryan. He’s a normal, intelligent guy, who has to work with rapists and pedophiles in order to pursue his life long passion of killing poor people.
I can’t believe we’re losing to these assholes.
Yeah, becoming smug, republican lite wasn’t exactly the greatest move. Also, not knowing how the electoral college works didn’t help either.
Fuck it. If people won’t save themselves, time to move on and bust into one of the tax brackets getting marginal rate cuts.
So, will you be hooking or drug dealing? I think I might go the hooking route (I received a horrendous car bill last week and my credit card is hoyt-ing ever since)
Nothing about social security though?
Give it a year.
BTW, he’s been working with rapists and pedophiles in the Republican caucus through his entire career.
I know. I just had to go for the low hanging fruit.
The one time I will admit my desire for some low-hanging fruit, myself only because I’d rather those closet cases kill themselves than everyone else.
Feeling as bloated as Magic Johnson introducing the Republican Income Tax Reform Bill…
/night, night
Our American DFOers should formulate a team for the flag football competition. It’d be amazing to get our ass handed to us by Chad Johnson. He’d also probably do an interview with us for a sub sandwich
The hard part will be where our regional games are. And getting there.
Hey there, Go-To Scoring Dude For Temple-that step-back airball 3 pointer is not going to get things done.
Crowd shots during the Wiscy/Temple basketball tilt consist solely of obese men in different colors clapping for something.
Anyone seen The Discovery on Netflix? Worth my time?
Oooh, Fat Mat Damon is in it? Oh wait, I forgot I hate that guy for stealing Kirsten Dunst away from me. I COULD’VE GOTTEN HER EVENTUALLY!
Of course. Vladimir and Estragon felt the very same way.
White Guys With Big Shoulders (Wisconsin) vs. John Chaney’s Children of the Corn (Temple) is as entertaining as you thought it would be.
Two handed set shots for everyone!
Pro contracts for no one!
i can finally taste food again. Fuck being sick.
“I was just doing my job, Spur.”

I have lots of free time because my class is doing a test. That’s great. The internet is fucking shit. That’s bullshit.
How’re we doing tonight?
Folks.
Guy next to me at the bar is pitching investing in bitcoin to the bartender. Acts like he knew it would blow up and he’d be rich now. Guh.
Bartender: “Unless you got some drinkcoin I’m gonna have to go serve someone else.”
Has anyone in the history of the universe done anything for any reason OTHER than getting laid?
/Asking foar a friend.
Mother’s Day gifts outside of Thebes?
/wife is under enormous stress trying to change the culture at a retirement home
//tells me this morning that she’s having sit-down with the CEO today
//comes home 2 hours after her usual quitting time with a sour look on her face
Me: “I didn’t realize it took that long to clean out your office.”
Her: “You are such a fucking asshole.” [smiles]
/turns out that some of the air has been cleared but there’s a long way to go
//my partner is the partner of all partners
Change the culture? Is she going to remove their foosball tables, bingo cards and other fun things to set a more professional tone like that one coach did earlier this year?
