Hopefully you didn’t spend the day in the same doghouse I did. Sure, I didn’t vacuum before work on Thursday, but I don’t think the police officers cared that the house wasn’t clean when they arrived. I literally
got the “clean underwear in a car accident” treatment over it. Dammit – that calls for booze.

Week Two continues in earnest tomorrow morning. So many key players are listed as “questionable” they could form part of Trump’s cabinet.
Our chants will be “Tie Brownies Ties” and “Fail Raiders Fail”. EMBRACE THE CHAOS!
Zlatan Ibrahimović scored a beautiful 500th career goal tonight. Check it out when you can
Sometimes I wish I went to a bigger school that had a minor league NFL team. I can’t get into it now. I just watch for the upsets mainly. If at all.
I understand completely.
/UCLA, class of 1992
I have never attended a school that had a football team. Not in HS, not in undergrad, not in grad school.
Probably not my DMA.
Even BETTER playoffs idea:
16 teams
Each conference winner gets in and is seeded based on conference winning percentage in non conference games vs FBS schools.
The rest are at large.
my 16 (the serious proposal) would skip 8 entirely, conference champs if in the Top 25 via some kind of SOS-based mathematical formula like Sagarin, the rest at large. Better seed is home the first two rounds. Would have to work hard on the formula to prevent gaming the system, but we have plenty of neeerrrrdddds who could dae it!
That only works if you move the lesser conferences to FCS. No way all the conference champions make the Top 25 because it’s a popularity contest.
All conference champs or pound sand
I say we make it 120 teams, they play each other sort of randomly throughout the year, then the national champ is chosen by a secret enclave of rich and powerful football old white dudes.
Mine would mean Boise gets in, not like 6-5 North Texas. Trust me, that’s how you want it. And it’s Sagarin-ish Top 25, not polls.
If North Texas somehow wins their conference with 6 wins, they’re in. (That won’t happen, of course as even the winner of a weak conference probably gets 8 wins)
to me, that encourages bad conference affiliation. I don’t like it. There needs to be a threshold when only at 16. There will still be bowls.
Conference affiliation is about nothing but TV dollars and teams can not upgrade themselves at will, so this a horrible standard to judge teams on
Happy Appy has been aggressively upgrading itself. It can be done. You have to balance equity and quality. Otherwise, 3/4 of the opening round games will be liquid shit, and awful TV.
Only if you don’t stagger the bracket. Do it like the Big East did their basketball tournament when it had 16 teams and you’ll end up with more competitive games
correct, you could make it larger than 16 so the small leagues play-in for the “automatic” berths, but it will just put the Boise-type schools at an even larger disadvantage.
If you don’t want North Texas, drop them to FCS. There is no point in being “FBS” if you can’t compete for the championship on the field.
sure you can compete on the field, have a 10 or 11-win season
The basketball side does not care which conference you are in and in the process has shown than a number of supposedly unworthy teams can hold their own from time to time.
No sports association/league in the world arbitrarily excludes whole groups of teams because they simply don’t think they’re good and college football’s problem has ALWAYS been its subjective evaluation of teams.
basketball is much less dependent on physical dominance than footy, and is a larger tourney.
Almost by definition, a conference champ that doesn’t make the cutoff is gonna be one that lost every non-conference game against a power-conference side.
If they can’t compete, they shouldn’t be in the top division.
Good job, Nevada. 4-3 works a lot better, huh?
Eh shit, they went back to the 3-1-4.
Still stopped ’em tho. Stupid sexy Beavers with their lack of a run game.
Lot of shiny crap littering the field at Jerryworld. Well, aside from the defenses.
Nice “fuck yes!!” by scrawny Bloodeyes kid on teevee
That kid knows what’s up. But it’s the blonde with daddy issues over to the left whom I’d like to talk to.
“Why don’t you have a seat right over there.”
The specific issue is that he’s late picking her up from school
OK, that made me laugh.
Who is that even supposed to be?
Princess Redtitties?
Miss Not the Point of the Post.
When Ohio State has to play a “real” team they tend to be exposed for what they are, King of the Cupcake Eaters.
As bad as the B1G is this year, tOSU can easily absorb a loss here and still make the playoffs.
Better playoffs idea – 8 teams, 4 seeds for the SECCCCC PAWWWWWLLLL, 4 for the plebians. Seed against one another in the first round, of course, for maximum bragging rights. It just means MOAR!
WTF defensive set is Nevada going with here. Looks like a 3-1-4 which I don’t think is actually a thing.
All right, time to watch some robots smash each other.
First of all, they’re Lizard People not robots, second of all I don’t think they do that anymore with each other, and third of all how did you get that footage of the Clintons?
I look forward to the heat of your taek. You will know the one.
Are you saying the Christian Fasters aren’t masculine enough?
Dammm
The OTHER Wolf Pack (two words out there in Nevada) with some very ugly unis and gonna let Oregon State (hehehehe….Beavers) come back and win this.
Dummies.
Josh Gordon to Dallas is going to happen, isn’t it?
If it doesn’t, Jerry is a moron. They have 0 WRs.
Don’t they have that white rapper guy?
I thought Witten retired.
Beas-wee. (Because he’s small, you see.)
Isn’t there another big free agent WR available out there? Big tall guy, went to Okie State? What’s his name… Justin Blackmon?
There’s a North Eastern powerhouse that would probably be interested in a receiver
I find you ideas intriguing and I would like to subscribe to your newsletter
I’m thinking he’ll check with Baltimore, Pittsburgh or Cincinnati first to see if they’re interested. That way he can destroy Cleveland twice a year.
Cincy already has a shiny John Ross they are insistent on not using. Yinzburgh is loaded at skill positions. Balmer…maybe.
I’ve taken two naps today. Feels good man.
By an interesting coincidence, I’ve taken two nips today. Also I’ve had several beers.
funny, I was never lauded for demonstrating quickness in the hole
I however…
What about going in the wrong hole?
ah don’t abide that wickedness!
/have always lived by the “I’ll stay away from your asshole if you stay away from mine” rule with the ladyfolk, and it worked quite nicely
#WASP
You don’t know what you’re missing…
poop and poop-borne bacteria!
Only if you’re German.
Seriously, does no one take a bath or clean down there?
Not sure about that pass intereference call but the Southern Fightin’ Jesuses get a TD
Forgot about the part where god appears as a pig who gets slaughtered and cooked, so that means Grease is the word.
That’s not a song.
This cold has lasted 7 days. Why yes I got drunk on 3 of the evenings but that should be of no consequence!
Alcohol kills germs right? Seems like solid logic.
Didnt work. Uggh
Try harder.
I’m having culture shock as I’m not used to seeing fucking snow in September
If it gives you any solace it rained all fucking week in BC.
Tussionex. ALWAYS Tussionex.
NAWT a surprise that the Christians don’t practice proper protectin, give up sack fumble TD to osu.
So…Browns gonna brown? Apparently Gordon was cut for being late?
He’s a free agent and can play for a real organization now. Really shows him!
Use your black magic fuckery Belichick and sign him!
Your move Seattle.
You’re joking?
Also sort of showed up “abnormal”
The problem with having your best start in 14 years is all of a sudden you start thinking you’re Belichick.
Aw, well. I could’ve seen this coming. Bengals won in primetime. JV Cincinnati is murderdeathkilling a D1A school. I had to pay for all that somehow.
TCU has some really sexy fookin’ cheerleaders, will give ’em that much.
And they all do anal because it’s the sex god can’t see
I gotta root for Ohio State. Because…well…
Oh you poor thing with your pro bowl quarterback.. . …..
Yeah, yeah, beggars can’t be choosers, blah blah blah.
Mrs Cola is a Bengals fan and does not know how this season will inevitably turn out.
A Marvin Lewis extension!!!
oh, he will be there until he (or Mike Brown) dies. It is written.
TCU qb has 6 games at Jerryworld? But sure, it’s a neutral site game.
Looking at espn top 25 scores
Huh, why are so many games canceled?
Took me longer than I’d like to admit to realize why
because #PussyBitches everywhere smgdh
Merry Bloodeyes Christmas!
Holy fuck, my vibe was unfortunately correct on this game (for those who actually read mah dumb previews)
The Reedley College Tigers, the team my nephew is DB coach for, won today 55-27.
Three and OH! Yo!
Kick ass Reedley!
huzzah cousin/nephew right!
Yay! Go Tigers! Win the Northern California Football Alliance!
Alright. Time to see if Ohio State is legit or just full of shit.
at least 2 Legit 2 Quit?
(hey…hey…)
Wow, the guts to pull that off.

Ha, the interim dipshit is a “Chip Kelly protogee” – what a likable crowd, these B1G sides…
What that BYU-WISC recap didn’t show: BYU coach calling two timeouts in an attempt to MEGA ICE the kicker and then feign a third timeout and a ULTRA ICE attempt and then celebrating like he just won the Price is Right Showcase Showdown when he successfully got a young man to choke after standing on the field for two minutes thinking about the kick.
I thought he was wasting timeouts, but maybe the head fake on #3 was worth it after all. He got his result!
Mango michelada time!

There might be a little areola there, but I need to watch that thirty or forty more times to be sure.
Porn or wrasslin’?
Can’t it be both?
Yes.
Ultimate Surrender…..
She seems helpful
I think I’ve seen that movie.
Self imposed alcohol ban lifted for this wedding. Not enough booze to make it tolerable yet.
Can’t decide if this or Raptor mascot eating shit is the best gif on the internet.
Holy shit I just realized I drank a pint of rum.
Dear god…I need to get my shit together…
This is a 2-pint minimum site and you know that!
A pint total or all at once?
ABC coverage of the osu band is so bad you can neither hear them, nor actually see what they are marching to form. At least set up a shotgun mic you dopes!
Director: “Now lets show Script Ohio but lets show it at ground level from a corner so we can’t make out what their writing. Oh and definitely cut out the four-year senior tuba player dotting the “i”. No one cares about it and its not like its his dream coming true or something.”
Alabama…just accept it bitches…go limp.
SEC baby! No safe word (
The things that makes me pissed about Alabama constantly making the playoffs is that they are actually good enough to earn the spot. That I can’t stand!
Top Eight Signs on College GameDay per USA Today
8. Even LeBron left Ohio
7. Where’s Urban?
6. I’d insult Urban but he isn’t here
5. What’s a buckeye?
4. Win or lose…
3. I had a better sign but Urban Meyer covered it up
2. An Ohio State University
1. The Buckeyecracker
#3 is my favourite
I’m kind of partial to #2 though, but I would’ve changed to “An Ohio State University – Columbus Campus”.
Now I want Ohio State to create a lower league football team on one of their regional campuses. Just imagine everyone’s reaction if both “The Ohio State University” and “The Ohio State University at Lima” makes the playoffs.
“The first round is the Ohio State Buckeyes vs. the Ohio State Lima Beans.”
absolutely!
LMFAO

couldn’t handle all that positive energy coming off that opening non-loss

Don’t you mean “Hedy”?
I’ve somehow managed to never see anything of Shohreh Aghdashloo until she played the mom in The Punisher on Netflix. Now, I’m working through The Expanse and I think I need to start backtracking and playing catch-up. She’s fucking great.
How’s the weather out east?
little moist!
Its 87 degrees outside, the pool is tempting me with a deliciously sparklely clear beauty, and I either have a migraine or someone has misplaced a golf ball just above my right eye.
Bring on the Buckeyes! But quietly and not very brightly.
