He looked quite unimposing as he stepped off the bus. I was sitting on a bench nearby and he asked me, “where am I?” I said, “somewhere you probably don’t want to be’. “Story of my life. You got a smoke for an old man?” I gave him the last one I had. “Anything to do around here?”, he asked hopefully. “Nope”, I replied.
We ended up walking towards the park and I told him that I had a can of beans that I’d share with him if he was hungry. “You’re a good man. I hope to return the favor one day”, he drawled. We got a fire going just as the sun was going down. I poked a few holes in the can and set it near the fire to warm. “Hospitality like this doesn’t come round too often. You don’t have anything strange up your sleeve, do ya?” Feeling the pressure of the small knife in my back pocket I smiled and said, “not up my sleeve, no”. He laughed, “that’s a good one, right there”. He relaxed and laid his head on his bunched-up jacket. I told I had to take a leak and walked out of his line of vision to do my business.
“It sure does feel like things might… might be turning aroun… Gar! Phhh! Hunnggg!” I had pulled his head back, exposing his wrinkled, stubbly throat. The knife went easily. I worked it around a little. He struggled a bit but this wasn’t exactly my first ride. I held him tightly with my other arm then gradually relaxed as he came to the realization that the end was a cold, hard fact.
It was a bit cool, I noted to myself as I got into my car, changed out of the shabby clothes I was in and headed for home. With the chillier weather coming I guess I’ll have to find a place indoors for the new friends that I make. I took a long pull on my flask and yelled to no one at all, “TO THE GAMES!”
Chiefs/Chargers:
Joey Bosa is in a walking boot, people! The only question left as far as Dandy Andy’s pre-game ritual is concerned is: beef or chicken? Either way, “The Supping from the Gravy Boat” really brings the team together.
Hawks/Broncos:
Perfectly cromulent Case Keenum leads the Broncs into battle vs. them Seattle folks but methinks that the play of youngsters, Freeman, Sutton and Chubb will be a better indicator of success.
‘Dacteds/Cards:
Alex Smith? Sam Bradford? I’m so confused.
‘Boys/Panthers:
The fella that put the “ass” in Dallass, de Gregory, was flagged for a ‘substance-related relapse’ last month. My prediction-after he’s finally released by the Cowboys he’ll latch onto one more team and then be a distant memory in two year’s time.
Type.
“The benefits of simple origami are two fold.”
I need 6 points from Trey Burton. I feel like I’m boned.
PPR? You get. Non-PPR? You sweat.
It is PPR but I have absolutely zero faith in Tittie Kissin’ Mitch.
The coach is so good he will get sommet out of the functional illiterate.
So the Cowboys blow it at the end? Seems about right.
sorry, wrong place
They blew it long before the end.
the left just enough hope to make it soul crushing.
At least you’ll have the Raiders soon.
Sorry, that’s not better is it?
BREAKING NEWS: West By God Virginia apparently opened as merely a 1 point favourite over my shitty wolves. I implore you to bet many moneys on WCS’s fuckers du cousins.
Did you see the drubbing ECU gave U*NC?
The very definition of a Sophie’s Choice.
I did NAWT (have policy against watching Holes for inverse jinx reasons), but my kid was there and I was very happy they did it. Tracked score last 3 quarters. U*NC could easily go 1-11 now, and this makes me oh so very happy.
I was following ECU and AppSt on my phone – good to see the tuition I pay being used for something important, and not so-called “education.”
Oh dear lord, please don’t be tempting me like that.
/takes out second mortgage
//drops it all on the ‘Eers
I just realized the Bengals win means I’m get to see sportcasters’s attempt to pronounce “Fejedelem”.
“that white guy”
So they’ve discovered cloned horses at an Argentinian polo match. That explains the SkyNet blimp above the arena.
Naming them Himmler, Bormann, Goebbels, Goring and Heydrich was probably too blatant.
Lost in all the Serena Williams coverage (at least here): No one is mentioning how she played like dog shit. 6 double faults is ridiculous
Since there is still a 1:00 game playing, does that mean the Early Thread is still open?
Yo gabbert going to give it to ya corners
Grilled brats, grilled chicken sausage, grilled corn on the cob plus the Vikings win?
I hereby declare this NFL season OPEN!
Drew?
Drew:
How many times have I told you that you can’t grill the kids no matter how annoying they are because CPS frowns on that and…
Oh, you meant the other kind of brats.
Cowboy pizza and hot wings here! SKOL buddy!
Leftover pizza from Friday night and leftover Chinese from Saturday night!
SKOL! Brother.
Long island’s grilled wings and carnitas checking in
Leftover turkey kielbasa with pasta and olive oil here, trying to dial it back a bit. Not even drinking…DURING A COWBOYS GAME!!!!
Turkey kielbasa is how you lose football games, I mean my god, sir.
I know, but it’s not that bad. Just trying to get the old BMI a bit more reasonable. I’m not what you would call fat, but could be thinner.
Dak Prescott would look good in midnight green. Practice squad could always use depth.
In one of my leagues, there is a score of 132-38.
Holy Jesus.
Did the Panthers intentionally run the play clock out or did Cam spend too much time celebrating that he forgot to kneel down one more time?
That would never have happened if Jerry Richardson was still alive.
Something something detonators something something
Apparently the Cowboys are taking the “no wide receivers” offensive option.
sure showed Dez imo
Insanity in Miami. EVeryone has given up.
Too bad only like 20-25 ppls will get to see the no doubt epically shit-tastic conclusion
Did the defenses leave with all the people in the stands?
Indeed we live in Hellworld now, but we do still have the Cowboys fucking up on Sundays.
If we have to live in Hell, so does THE DOUBLE J.
yeeeeeehawwwwwwww
Welp…
DAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAK
CHUH CHUH
Pac-Man, chuh chuh!
LOL, SeaTruthers
On to Chi***!
61 seconds, no timeouts, rested Von.
even better now
When really drunk…a good curry is fucking awesome…
Jump to the Carolina/Dallas match – Kuechly is injured. Maybe the footy ISN’T your calling after all? Have you thought about selling insurance or maybe cars?
Kuechly ded
Zeke broke Kuech!
