As you are reading this, I am currently not in Seattle awaiting the banal gore that will be the Seahawks home opener on Sunday. The dog sitter’s elderly mother died, and there wasn’t time to make other arrangements, so my brother will be enjoying the carnage without me.
However, as we heard Joe & Troy repeat ad nauseum on Thursday night, Seahawks-Cowboys is America’s Game of the Week on FOX.
Which I thought loved America.
So why are they punishing America with this game? Is it because the DUMMYCRATS! are holding up the Kavanaugh vote? Quick – someone ask professional sports owner Mike Bidwell whether he was at that party.
Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh was a HS classmate of Cardinals’ owner Michael Bidwill at Georgetown Prep, class of '83. Bidwill organized their classmates for a letter of support that will be sent to the Senate Judiciary Committee.

After all, they were tight running buddies, so maybe he admitted something. It seems a hell of a lot more practical than forgiving an 18 year-old Brett Kavanaugh for allegedly committing a worse crime than what got 18 year-old Trayvon Martin killed.

So now I have to watch the game at home, with a cooler full of free beer. If I’m sober enough, I’ll log in. NO PROMISES!
On the bright side, there are going to be a lot of very disappointed hot chicks with daddy issues in Eugene, who need comforting, in about two minutes.
from my brief time in the state, I preferred Beaver gals (phrasing)
Meh, all dem pacific northwest are worth a look see.
Sorry, looks like I overestimated when I said “two minutes”.
(oh yikes….flashback to freshman year)
Why are they playing prevent? smgdh
let the clock beat ’em. SMRT
this is the luckiest goddamned escape I have ever seen. Oregon’s coach should make like Dungy’s gay son immediately after the final whistle.
Junior Gronk!
Ohhhh, duck!
There is one good Lesser Footy League this season, and it is the SEC Paaaaawwwwllll West. I now just want to see a Roll Damn Tide v. West By God Virginia final, in which 115 points are scored between the sides.
Say what you will about the PAC Twaaaaaalve, brother – it knows how to late night derp
The Big 12 might be trash, but, we ain’t the Pac-12. Or ACC.
true DAT
the ACC is Sun Belt-calibre this season
Bethune-Cookman could win the Coastal this year.
we’d get some neat stomp shows out of it, at least
It would make VaWolf very happy.
😛
Tweakers gonna tweak.
Oregon REALLY wants to fuck this up.
Lol, what a dumb penalty.
“Jet Toner” isn’t a person, it’s a printer company.
Fuck a duck.
he’ll miss
Oh, duck.
OH NO! THEY DUCKED IT!
anyone ‘splain to Hippo why they not just take a knee 3x?
I can NAWT.
ODU did same thing earlier, ran in a TD instead of fumbling though. Despite better outcome, was still dummy move.
Oh yeah, agree. I was yelling at that runner to take a knee after he got the first down.
maybe he has cancer or something
ah, the naked bootleg. It ALWAYS WORKS
That was atrocious Stanford. You could not get 1 fucking yard.
you can stack 11 in the box b/c David Shaw wouldn’t play action if you had a gun to his head
same situation. OR runs play action, gets TD
So Trump told Spain to build a wall across the Sahara to stop migrants?
There is a lot going on there.
He’s “like” a smrt person.
I am sure Libya, Morocco, Algeria and Egypt would have no issue at all. That would be easy construction as well.
All a smokescreen for raiding the public monies. Each day he can sell more of that which is not his to give away is a win in his book.
And when it’s all said and done, there will be no real punishment for any of the culprits.
HERM-TIME BABY!!!
you PLAY to BEAT teh SPREAD!!
ASU football is so absolutely overrated and underrated at the exact same time.
thus hate them as a favourite, love them as a heavy underdog
We’re discussing new names for the band and right now we’re stuck on Fat Stupid Waitresses.
I played on a softball team called Love Donkey once. We always though that the captain wanted to be in a band called that but played softball instead.
The Weapons Of Mass Destruction?
“That’s a stupid name.” — Maroon 5
That’s offensive. Ironic word play is the new game.
“We’re just doing it for the bewbs.”
You mean Big Boned Intellectually Challenged Servers
Infected Head Wound
Elegantly Awkward
Also, to Virginia Tech:
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA (takes breath) AHAHAHAHHAHAHHAHAHHAHHAHAHAHHAHHAHAHAHHAAHHAA
Howdy, howdy, howdy.
I’m starting to think the Big 12 isn’t exactly very good.
I really thought you said Pac 12 because that’s the norm. What a weird year.
this year is your Golden Opportunity
Evening imaginary peers. I’m trying to decide between cooking a healthy dinner and just having a sandwich.
What kind of sandwich?
Leftover corned beef and salami
Do that one.
Healthy, because then you can have a drink.
Most sammiches I make are healthier than the dinner I cooked an our ago.
(stares longingly at bare bone from GIANT/THICK pork chop that was destroyed earlier.)
So it was Raj Shah that dropped Dr. Ford’s name to Ed Whelan (and many other trump allies) before the story went public. Another gravyneck who’s gonna look great in a noose.
So ND should be ranked above the Sooners now, right?
You would have to think so. The world being the way that it is ND will be #2 in no time.
I actually wouldn’t mind that . Watching Notre dame get destroyed in a playoff game would be amazing
“Eh, it’s been done” – Roll Damn Tide
/it was funny to see all ESPN folk tittilating with excite over their ND upset picks, before Bama won by like 5 TDs
Got FOUR FUCKING GAMES going and they all at halftime or commercial.
If LaTech pulls off the upset of LSU, they will be immediately granted admission to the SEC and the loss will only drop LSU one spot.
Gus Johnson calling the Wisc-Iowa game is like the fat guy-hot wife mismatch of announcer assignments.
Army taking OU to OT just like they took the Germans after they bombed pearl harbor!
Kenfucky, Shitty Wolves, and Guns Up!! all look through. Pokes’ student body looks so depressed that they can’t even get a semi off being surrounded by other men with giant orange paddles. That’s just sad.
Low effort cosplay. Everyone knows sailor moon and her friends wear gloves.
Ohhhhhhhhh!-va-time
/that format likely do NAWT play to Army’s strengths
They’re respecting the TROOPS!
maybe even their veteran bookmaker!
OK land thieves miss the FG. Go Black Knights!
Old Dominion beat #13 Virginia Tech? Did it look as shady as that sounds?
no, it was a straight up teeth-kicking-in, State played at ODU a few years ago and they were pesky as fuck
DFO quiet tonight. Everyone at Homecoming?
Wife and kid in bed and I just rolled a hash joint on a Dr. Seuss book so I got that going for me.
NutNoy, the unforgiving
Chiquita Banana Chikorita Day broke the game.
Black Knights make me proud to be American. Fuck those Land stealers
Night, silly fellers. I’m too drunk to put together the first slate o’games intro right now and there’s a planned power outage for tomorrow morning. Wish me luck.
A planned power outage? Where do you live Mogadishu?
She seems very nice.

If you ever get bored, just flip to an NC State game sometime just to watch Ryan Finley throw. It’s absolute perfection. I stand by it, he’s a mobile, 2″ taller Drew Brees.
“Oh My God! I’m never up this late!”
-the thing I say every time I’m up past 9pm EST.
head West young man
But, “Oh My God! I’m never up past 6pm PST!” doesn’t have the same ring to it.
Oregon doesn’t recruit for running backs, they recruit ‘scamperers’.

The last time I was this disappointed in Stanford athletes, someone was complaining about a steep price for 20 minutes of action
NOTE to ESPN crawl writers: If sommet is the “first X since 201__” – it ain’t worth mentioning.
I’m in line at Costco and everybody is crazy and/or pretty ugly too. Then I realized I am also in this line, thus I am crazy and/or ugly as well.
These are my people.
/not really
I have always been crazy but it took awhile for the transition from average/mediocre/forgettable to downright ugly to sink in.
Can you bring me a hotdog?
I was in Sam’s last Friday during a mid-morning rainshower and noticed how old everyone was, even the associates.
/is old too
We went to Costco today too! I broke one of my purchases on the way out and had to wait 20 minutes for a runner to get me a new one.
USA USA USA. Do it for America Black Knights!
Vols Players: “I didn’t sign up for this blowout.”
Coach Pruitt: “Yes. Yes you did.”
