Your “Don’t Waste Your Words, They’re Just Lies” Thursday Evening Open Thread

NFL News: another very quite day. US sports seem to be avoiding getting in the NBA’s way.

  • Someone had the bright idea to talk to Peyton Manning about Andrew Luck’s injury & missed year.
    • Especially while Peyton is golfing a pro-am at The Memorial with Tiger Woods
    • Manning advised that Luck will need to get lots of reps in in order to regain some semblance of “game shape”.
      • No word on if he was advised on how to get into Jim Irsay’s private stash.
  • Kaep’s Kollusion Kase update!
    • Kaep’s lawyer, Mark Geragos, is claiming he has a corroborating witness who is able to testify about an active conspiracy to keep him out of the NFL.
      • the key will be evidence that football “people” think he (or Eric Reid) can positively contribute to a team’s success, but ownership has vetoed the move in collusion with other owners as retribution for his stance.
  • JFF is officially a backup (for now) in Hamilton.
    • Head coach June Jones says last year’s starter, Jeremiah Masoli, “absolutely” remains the starter.
    • As Maestro reminded you, the CFL plays a two-game pre-season and an 18-game schedule.
      • Given CFL injury rates, it’s more than likely he’ll end up starting a couple of games by September.

Tonight’s sports:

  • CFL Pre-Season:
    • Alouettes vs. Redblacks – 7:30PM | TSN2
  •  NBA:
    • Cavaliers at Warriors – 9:00PM | ABC / TSN
      • 4th year in a row.

  • MLB:
    • USA – only on MLBN
    • Canada:
      • Yankees at Orioles – 7:00PM | Sportsnet
      • Red Sox at Astros – 8:00PM | Sportsnet1
  • Spelling bee:
    • Finals: Closing portion – 8:30PM | ESPN

No broadcast baseball in America? No spelling bee finals in Canada? WHY DO I EVEN HAVE CABLE?

Medical education pays off finally.

Are we allowed to bet on the spelling bee? Are there live lines? Anyone know?

Prop Bet: non-Indian to win? 100-1

litre_cola

You leave him alone he is editing our Columbia post. I checked on bet365 and you cannot wager on the bee there, however perhaps some Beach Volleyball action is what you are after.

ballsofsteelandfury

Filipino badminton?

theeWeeBabySeamus

Hahahahaha

theeWeeBabySeamus

You have my attention.

ballsofsteelandfury

I bet that kid that got the long oo word is pretty pissed right now

Thought of the day: Rob Gronkowski is roughly the size and body type of Bruce Wayne. He, like Bruce Wayne are known for being party animals. Yet, once in a while, Gronk let’s his guard down and you hear how conservative he is, just like Bruce Wayne. What I’m saying is, if there’s a crime fighter emerging in Boston, it’s likely Gronk.

Think I’ll give the Get Shorty series a try. I like the people in it. Fully expect it to disappoint.

herodotus450

Do you think the nba is already working on a selective breeding program to produce a line of six-fingered blind mole men to become refs once too many jerseys have been retired by all teams and they have to allow numbers above 55? Or is that still 5-10 years away?

They should all take their little signs off, and there should be a lightning round where they have to spell one another’s names.

The people behind “The Trouble With Apu” cannot be happy with this background story.

Spur

nice mustache on that girl.

Gratliff

As someone who lived in roach-infested hovels for 18 years, the memory of waking up routinely with one or more of those fuckers crawling on me is scarring. My worst days as an adult will never be as bad as living with those fucking things as a child.

Horatio Cornblower

There’s your winner right there.

theeWeeBabySeamus

Oh shit, there’s a white kid still in it.

theeWeeBabySeamus

Klay Thompson emerges from the locker room… Cleveland needs a counter.

BAH GAWD THAT’S MELANIA TRUMP’S MUSIC!

/but seriously where is she?

Spur

secret mission to Russia. setting up a safe house.

herodotus450

She was a secret sleeper agent a la “The Americans” this whole time, and she’s just gone back to Russia now that her mission is complete.

Horatio Cornblower

it takes about three weeks to clear up a black eye.

I’m only half-kidding about this.

theeWeeBabySeamus

I presume when this girl misspells perduellion, she’ll be on the street selling matches again?

Horatio Cornblower

Ooh, right church, totally wrong pew.

I’m not here for the fluffy backstories; I’m here for the inwardly miserable children deprived of a healthy childhood by psychotic parents.
