JV NFL 30 December Afternoon Offerings

What wagers can I get horribly wrong today??

Gator Bowl – Louisville v. Mississippi State (Noon, ESPN)

Such a shame that Dan Mullen won’t be around for this, as would make for a great coaching matchup.  Ville have been disappointing all season long, though, and I don’t see any reason why that should stop today.

Liberty Bowl – Iowa State v. Memphis (12:30, ABC)

I guess Memphis is favoured because…de facto home game?  Iowa State beat Oklahoma on the road, what exactly is the Tiggers’ claim to fame, other than another Paxton Lynch clone at QB?

Fiesta Bowl – Washington v. Paedo State (4:00, ESPN)

Surprisingly (to me), the B1G is doing very, very well in exhibition play, and the PAC 12+ is falling on they faces.  I…wouldn’t expect this to be the matchup that changes that narrative, as much as I would like that outcome.

Damn you, Hippo foar shaming me!!!!!!

theeWeeBabySeamus

Ah, now I see. But I still feel too shamed to eat pie now.

Unrelated: Does my ass look fat in these jeans?

I once ate an entire Red Baron pizza and the mozzarella sticks that came with it. It did not come with dessert, or else I would have attempted that too.

In fairness, I think I was 18-19 and nobody else was home that day.

theeWeeBabySeamus

I haven’t even checked in.
But not surprised.

I can’t disagree. On both FB and bumper stickers, that is.

I don’t care what someone’s kid did at whatever lousy school they go to.

What about if I ran a marathon? Or was a crossfitter? I know you crave that knowledge.

/am neither.

Heh, don’t throw it to the wide open guy on your left, PSU QB, throw it to the mass of defensive linemen on your right.

if those chucklefucks had a QB, they’d be dangerous.

Big 10 teams winning Bowl Games? It’s the end times! It’s in Reveleations, people!

Senor, not to be content with normal sanity, is now putting cinnamon and cayenne in his hot cocoa. IT’S SWISS MISS, ME BUFFOON!

/Also I apparently combine the first and third persons?

Senor Weaselo

What is the O/U anyway?

theeWeeBabySeamus

55.5 was last I saw.

theeWeeBabySeamus

Wishing I’d put down moar ATS at the moment.

I think it was, I only saw a flash of it.

Yo so fiesta!

The Gronk Fiesta Bowl could work, I suppose.

Trying to keep it close at least through the first half.

Holy shit. I just paid my natural gas bill…the shit is three times higher than normal. I am sick of freezing my fucking ass off here.

AL GORE PROMISED ME GLOBAL WARMING DAMN IT!!!

theeWeeBabySeamus

Here in the sticks, we do liquid propane (supplemented by heat pump). The tank has only just been filled but is already dipping down noticeably on the gauge. Been pretty cold for ’round here and is only getting worse next week.

Meh. I gotz sweatshirts.

$100 on Paedo State ATS.
I’ll decide on Wiscy/daU later.

theeWeeBabySeamus

Well, that coulda been ugly.

theeWeeBabySeamus

Can’t remember…you ML’d and went ATS on this one, yes?

theeWeeBabySeamus

Sorry for half of that then I guess.

theeWeeBabySeamus

Shit, right. I had minus in my head for some reason.

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

These poor referees can’t seem to figure out which team is the Patriots.

Unsurprised

Touchdown Seahawks, then.

theeWeeBabySeamus

WTF call is that?

theeWeeBabySeamus

Jeebus….Coach K wants that guy at Duke.

theeWeeBabySeamus

They should look at THAT shit on replay and see he faked and kick his ass out of the damned game.
Fuck.

theeWeeBabySeamus

Ruling on the field being king is kinda stupid if you’re unsure enough to use replay to begin with. I mean I get it…but if you don’t trust the guy’s call to begin with?

theeWeeBabySeamus

Hard to say.
I’m sure they’ll fuck it up.

theeWeeBabySeamus

Yep, barring a turnover, that one’s over.
Latoya won’t even get the ball back prolly.

theeWeeBabySeamus

Taking longer than I expected tho.

theeWeeBabySeamus

On that 3rd and 18 I was all….he’s gonna make that marker….OUCH, no he’s not.

theeWeeBabySeamus

Iowa State does realize they can’t run 11+ minutes off the clock just yet, right?
Jeebus, I could call these plays.
Hint…..SO CAN MEMPHIS YOU DUMBSHITS!!!!!!

theeWeeBabySeamus

Wow, delay of game for those play calls.
This is getting funny now.

Horatio Cornblower

I think they’re in UCONN’s conference. I refuse to believe UCONN put 26 points up on anyone.
/searches furiously

I stand corrected. UCONN whacked them for 31 points.

Unfortunately they also gave up 70.

theeWeeBabySeamus

Good ’nuff foar me.
LOL, sorry.

I’ve lived my entire life in states that don’t bother with the weird alcohol restrictions the rest of Americans seem to deal with and every time I’m reminded of those rules I am baffled.

theeWeeBabySeamus

Ain’t no coincidence I miss laws in Arizony and Californiyay.

theeWeeBabySeamus

Plus….legal weed.

...

I never want to live in a state that doesn’t allow, I dunno, churches to sell booze from slushie machines whenever they want.

theeWeeBabySeamus

See? Now that would get asses in the pews.
Stupid sexy organized religion.

theeWeeBabySeamus

We still talking booze, or just in general now?

theeWeeBabySeamus

ProTip…don’t live in Scranton ‘burbs foar two years. You think our rednecks are rednecks? Wow…just wow.

Unsurprised

Not in this shitty state. I could explore the TJ across the river, but I’d just as soon go to BevMo then.

Wait a minute. Oregon owns all non-beer and wine at liquor stores. I wonder if they could buy and resell Kirkland booze (I’ve read their vodka is Grey Goose, which seems dubious but intriguing) somehow. It’s not like I don’t see Kirkland stuff for sale on Amazon for resale.

However, OLCC lists everything for sale and has a list of monthly specials.

I’ve been seeing on Twitter that Iowa State fans have been drinking Memphis dry with their insatiable thirst. These people turn their corn into ethanol for a reason.

Unsurprised

What else is there to do in Iowa but drink like tomorrow is another day in the endless horizon Hell that is Iowa?

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

Well, there’s all those corn-fed girls…[surveys options]…no, no, that’s TOO much corn.

Wisconsin girls are thicker, but they’ll drink you under the table and are quite down to fuck so it all works out.

My favorite story about living in Iowa comes from a good friend of mine who grew up there. She said when she was a teenager, some of her friends tried to get drunk off water.

Unsurprised
theeWeeBabySeamus

Which is no coincidence.
Wendell Murphy knows what I’m talking about.

...

Honestly, when it comes to pounding drinks, I’m not sure whether Iowans or Wisconsinites would win. If their Big 10 trophy game isn’t a pink elephant, it should be.

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

Based on that roughing the passer call, I can tell that the Iowa State quarterback will have a bright future in the NFL playing for the New England Patriots.
