Your “No Brokeback Mountain Jokes, I Beg of You!” Thursday Night NFL Football Open Thread

I just recently had a curious experience that I’d thought I’d share. I had two glasses next to each t’udder, (I type that word more often than I would regularly in the hope that spellcheck will finally red-line it but, nope-not this time either. Yet try sneaking ‘rumour’ past this arbitrary-as-hell program though…) one had beer and the other contained scotch. I absentmindedly grabbed the latter and took a swig of what I thought was beer. Wah! I thought to myself, “I finally understand what Peter Gabriel was jabbering on about in ‘Shock The Monkey’!” I love me the scotch (username checks out) but I almost retched because I was anticipating the taste sensations of a different oh-so-sweet nectar. This is the most interesting moment in the last three days of my existence. I wish someone would cut me from this practice squad life…. TO THE GAME!

Saints/Cowboys:

New Orleans qb Breezy is having himself one hell of a year but I sure do wish sportsfarters would drop the trope of, “He’s Almost 40!!!!”. My extraordinarily thorough research into signal-callers that did their thing into the fourth decade of their life (it took about 45 seconds) tells me that 20 have done so. As a percentage of the whole that’s… whatever but let’s not think that it’s some sort of radical achievement. Speaking of math and stats, boy, the abacuses are stacked up against them Cowboys. The Saints have averaged  44 points over their last 4 tilts and Dallas has scored over 30 twice all season. It only gets worse from there. Suffice to say that Zeke has to run wild over the Saints #1 run defense in order for the Cowboys to squeak out the W.

I can not fathom why the Mets want to pay for Cano’s age 36-41 seasons AND give up good prospects to do it but LOL Mets.

I completely barreled over two millenials this week at work – not literally – figuratively. I tasted blood and I wanted to go back and physically fuck them up. Luckily I’m a professional.

Tonight’s superstar is KATON, thanks very much. Oh, she’s so delightfully cute. And a reader!!

Namesake mention drinking is fun.

WAS THERE A FOOTBALL MOVE???

Spur

I would have assumed the Saints would have tossed beads in the kettle

Gratliff

You had a good run, there, Dallas

SonOfSpam

Switched over to hoc-key during commercial (Kings-Oilers in Edmonton) and holy shit does the Canuck national anthem kick the shit out of ours.

Spur

This was better then expected. I assume the halftime adjustments will doom Dallas because Dallas makes none

litre_cola

Sounds good to me.

WCS

The Ol’ Double J gets his crotch adjusted at halftime by some Tijuana hookers.

Gratliff

Dallas has done nothing to deserve a high profile win. I hope Zeke breaks his fucking femur.

Your hate feeds Zeke

It’s much more entertaining when it’s a hockey team’s emergency goalie.

Good evening commentists, has BFC asked Maestro to change his lineup yet?

Evening, have you heard about our Lord and Savior, inane distraction from work?

herodotus450

Heehee, the amazon thing just has the announcer combos on a button, switching back and forth between “Storm Kremer” and “Buck Aikman.” One’s a gay porn star, the other is a massive late autumn tropical storm caused by teh gayz.

BrettFavresColonoscopy

Storm Kremer is better than Buck Aikman, even when Kremer thinks she’s doing a newscast.

Spur

I miss Romo

ballsofsteelandfury

Wait, did they just play NEW ORDER?!?

How do you feel… about that?

Now? I stand here waiting.

Lindsay Lohan is mad at Ariana Grande, or something, I don’t know. I started reading, but my brain was imagining several scenarios involving those two. After I saw Elizabeth Gillies’ name, I stopped reading, because no possible story can top what my brain was imaging involving those three.

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

Apparently on Amazon you can get Hannah Storm and Andrea Kramer doing commentary instead of Buck and Aikman. I very strongly encourage anyone who has this option to take advantage of it. Or else do the Spanish version, like me.

litre_cola

OOOh support Jeff Bezos or Fox? Man I wish I got the game in French. With Scotchy’s cable package I am sure he gets the game in Urdu as well.

Do they, like, do stuff to each other? Because that would be a tiebreaker.

Are these guys there, too? Nixon loved football.

herodotus450

I heard it from a padcost the other day that Nixon couldn’t cut it as a college football player, too small, so he started some kinda social club that basically led him into politics.

Did anyone here actually see the video? I did not because it seemed a bit icky. (Ok, afraid of getting caught somehow. Whatever.)

ballsofsteelandfury

I’m not tech savvy enough to find it, but if someone had provided me an easy way to see it, I would have seen it.

You know, so I could judge and condemn the person that filmed it…

SonOfSpam

Yes, they should be condemned right after I finish.

Spur

I enjoyed the today.

ballsofsteelandfury

I have thoroughly enjoyed the rain today!

ballsofsteelandfury

Ha ha! No worries. Just promise me you’ll write at least one more of those posts. Love them!

Seriously, where did the Sun God go?! Its it angry?! Does it need an offering?!

I saw it several times over DTLA.

There were so many helicopters over the I-5 near me this morning it felt like a Vietnam war movie.

Next V-Week will feature holographic Jimmy V. dancing next to holographic 2-Pac.

King Hippo

Ah am most ready for Glorious Zombie Apocalypse if said event brings me back Jimmy V?

V to Lenny Wirtz: “can I get a technical for what I think?”

LW: “Of course not, Jim”

V: “Good, because I think you suck.”

V to audience: “and he gave me a technical! Ya can’t trust ’em”

I’ve been in vacation all week. I’ve done nothing but sleep and play BF5 and HOTS. I think the dogs are getting sick of me. I’ve worn the same shorts for three days.

If Dallas only loses by 10, it will be a good showing.

King Hippo

Fuck off, some of us have two thumbs and moneys on the Non-gendered Cowpersons

ballsofsteelandfury

Some of us have apparently lost their minds.

And soon their money.

So Pelosi is going to be Speaker again? I thought you guys were the party of change. My estranged party is supposed to be the party of cronyism, favoritism, and backroom deals, not you guys!

Is it because like my Cincinnati Reds you guys have nobody in the farm system so you have no choice?

WCS

More like the Edmonton Oilers: lots of young talent that is continuously wasted because upper management continues to be a complete shitshow, and never learns from their mistakes. Ever.

Also, the Dallas Cowboys.

Spur

Wouldn’t matter who got elected speaker, Republicans are not compromising. Nancy needs to elect the Newer Progressive Dems to committee chairs

WCS

There’s a better chance of Lil’ WCS learning advanced calculus at her current age (two-and-half years) than that happening.

Redshirt

Use your power to investigate the Trumps, but don’t do impeachment unless you have the “smoking gun”. Don’t reach like the GOP did in ’90s. Try to promote your agenda but without going too extreme to scare away any anti-Trumpers or moderate GOPs voters glancing left. If you go too far left, they’ll stay home and we’ll get another four years of this crap.

Nothing wrong with taking things one step at a time. Rome wasn’t built in a day.

King Hippo

This is the last 2 years. Without any real levels of legislative power, it ain’t the time to swap out horses/donkeys. Come 2020, new blood, absolutely.

Just don’t pull a Dewey in ’48 and assume your gonna win. You gotta at least try.

Part of me wants to be alive in 30 years, so I can watch experts compare those two elections to see which was a worse upset.
