Hey 2017,
So, let’s see how 2018 is unfold–
Dammit! It hasn’t even been a whole day yet!
NFL Notes:
- Friday announcements:
- Seahawks CB Justin Coleman wasn’t fined for his leap into the Sally Ann kettle during the Hawks-Cowboys game last week.
- Davante Adams signed a 4-year, $58 million extension with the Packers.
- Andrew Luck says he’ll be ready to go in 2018.
- This is delightful.
- It’s “Black Monday” and we discovered which teams value employees over expediency in who and how they got fired after the season ended.
- GONE!: (as of when I left Seattle Monday afternoon)
- Chuck Pagano
- Jack Del Rio
- John Fox
- Jim Caldwell
- ”RETIRED!”:
- Bruce Arians
- Dom Capers
- Dean Pees
- GONE!: (as of when I left Seattle Monday afternoon)
I spent New Year’s in Seattle, visiting my brother & his wife after going to the Seahawks home finale. It sure was nice of the team to suck just enough that I didn’t have to worry about buying playoff tickets this year.
I will note the guy one section over from me who had a sweet hand-carved Seahawks helmet.
It should be fun watching the Seahawks try to rebuild without imploding. I look forward to writing more scouting adventures with Pete Carroll & John Schneider.
Until then, I will entertain Twitter’s possible fates for Blair Walsh, who – if he was smart – just left the stadium in his uniform & never turned back.

It’s nice that the Sugar Bowl and the “Anyone but ‘Bama!” mantra comes today, so I can get ready for the NFL playoffs & my prayers for “ANYONE BUT THE PATRIOTS!”
DDDDDEEEEEERRRRRPPPPPPPP
This game goes any longer it’ll be too old for Roy Moore to date it
So you east coast assholes have to stay up until 1am to see the end of the second game?
Yes, but, I don’t go back to work until next week.
New Mayhem dude is a mere shadow of his former self. Sad!
LET’S DO THIS ALL NIGHT!!!!
I’M BUYING THE DRINKS!!!! **
** for myself
Ye of little faith. Here comes a pick 6
Oh man I hope this goes like 7 OTs.
-Blair Walsh
Cue the bad snap in 3…2…1…
Fake it!
My high school girlfriend? Is that you?
Go for it, you pussies!
Yup….gonna hash shank it.
Congrats UGa, love ya’s.
Bye bye money.
Big choice coming up.
Ooooh…I’m all goose pimply.
Is that SHAN’KLOR’s music I hear?
Feels like it’s coming,eh?
If OU scores, game over, right?
Gotta get the TD to end it.
Unless they only score a field goal, I think
Time foar cake…
Could you at least apologize with a better cake? smgdh
Did anyone make the MXC joke already?
Welp, the in-game over seems like a good choice.
It’s too bad espn doesn’t have a whole cohort of networks that they could use to start and air the next game so we’re not here until 2019.
Bama’s on the Deuce.
Very appropriate
You want The Ocho to have real sports? What kind of monster are you?
Why, OU? Why?
Stoppage time! Oh boy!
It’s nice to see the NCAA make these interns work longer with no pay.
Time for a Chubb to go full length and pound it in?
Go for it!
No really insurance company, it was a rock.
Eh, she’s not that solid.
Either am I right now, maybe a half chubb.
A good Baker needs more than a minute.
Well, I might as well double down from last page’s post:
UGA left lots of time left and Baker don’t mind playing in Cleveland….
(They win with a last second field goal, you see)
Good time to get a Chubb
GET IN ALL YOUR CHUBB JOKES, PEOPLE.
Crap, mine’s only halfway there!
Holy shit this is hypnotic.
You can’t waste a Chubb like that and not score.
Per orders from Alabama, this game will be suspended at 9:00 so we can move on to their game.
So where do you think Eli will end up?
His tree house?
With a juice box and sesame street on the cardboard teevee
No foul for picking up the ballcarrier?
That’s legal?

I think I got the “spicy for gweilo” kung pao chicken. As in, not spicy at all, though the peppers were all right-ish.
Mainstream North America’s definition of spicey is so ridiculous. At best, it’s a weak medium
Still need to pick up Last Dab from Chelsea Market. And then there will be a House of Pain, chuh chuh.
I’m glad I don’t have any interest in this game. I may not survive.
Favorite tweet thus far: This is cutting into Nick Saban’s recruiting time, people
Prolly too late to bet the over I guess.
Wouldn’t the live O/U be 100.5?
I’d still take the over.
Great minds
Some online sports books let you do in-game bets. I would think this will approach 100.
It is currently 90.5
Pound that over!!!
WINNAR! WINNAR! WINNAR!
Might wanna jump on that quickly.
As Hippo heself might say….
SUDDEN CHANGE!!!!!
He sedated.
Lucky bastard.
Ho Li Fuk.
Bananacakes confirmed
Wow.
WTF was that Lincoln?
Which hung individual called OU scoring? I dunno, but I called it last page.
Georgia’s best hope is that this game goes to overtime, because you know a CD can only play for 72 minutes.
/Damn you CFB and your “untimed” OT downs
(stretches out collar)
More of a wax cylinder crowd I see.
Sorry. I was hauling my totally not outdoor cat back in from the cold.
Dumb cat picks tonight to sneak out the door.
Bananacakes Rose Bowl?
Hippo? You still there bud?
He’s good on the spread again at least.
I love 4 hour JV football contests.
Plus we still get the hate Bama tonight!
Hail Satan!
I hate ’em both.
Really would love the meteor to finally arrive for that one.
Them ESPN-Disney boys are going all out on clamping down on the streams…
I’m down to an Arabic feed….
Of course a Bulldog took down a lamb. Buddy should change his last name to Vick.
To me, that kind of behind the back pitch bullshit Fromm just pulled should be declared a fumble
Where did that shit come Fromm?
Hehehe…get it?
You misspelled Penthouse “forum”
Yes, fuck the Sooners. Dirty Land Thieves.
