Belated Lesser Footy and JV Open Thread

Sorry, forgot I was doing this.

As we speak, Palace have roared back to take a 2-1 lead on City.  At the Etihad.  BANANACAKES!!  There is also Hammers/Moose Hornets and White Power/Barcodes on NBC Gold.

United look for their new manager bump in the spotlight dance (12:30, NBC) in the easiest setting possible – home to Cardiff.

Bayern have a key road fixture against Eintracht Frankfurt (12:30, FS2).  That is mildly interesting.  German sides have such aggressive sounding names.

Tomorrow is all about Spurs at Toffees (11:00, NBCSN), a belter of an appetizer for the Last Real RedZone of the 2018 season.  Everton really need to at least get a point here, show they are serious.

Seems like our Young Boys have run off with their Sugar Daddies on vacation.  No fixtures this weekend.

JV exhibition previews!

Wake Forest (+3.5) v. Memphis, Annoying Jewelry Ads Bowl (Birmingham, AL – Noon, ESPN)

The Deacons are pesky and annoying, as their road win over my Shitty Wolves will attest.  Memphis seems like they choke a lot, so I put $50 on Wake.  Keep the afternoon lively.

Houston (+7??) v. Army, Salute to Jingoism Bowl (Fort Worth, TX – 3:30, ESPN)

I have to go with the JV 500s here ($50 at +220 ML), because I simply refuse to believe Army is any good.  Yes, a defense contractor is the sponsor.

Buffalo (-1) v. Troy, Too Cheap For K-Mart Bowl (Mobile, AL – 7:00, ESPN)

Yes, apparently Mobile is shitty even fer Alabama standards.  One has to like Buffalo here, it’s just ONE dude, man.

Hawaii (Pick ’em) v. Louisiana Tech, Hawai’i Bowl (Honolulu, HI – 10:30, ESPN)

Critical home island advantage has to come into play here.  But you may need professional help if cray-cray enough to stay up and watch this slop.

Reclusive, vulgar Broncos fan. Also a proud fookin' Evertonian. Likely dropped on my head repeatedly as a small child. [Insert George Carlin quote followed by thoughtful nod.]

I’m considering dumping some serious coin on BC +2. ML is only +110, maybe I should just watch that overnight?

Ooooh….it just moved to +3.

Now that we’ve been beautifully promised and assured by the president that ISIS has been completely eradicated from the Middle East and the rest of the world and will no longer be a threat to anyone anymore forever and ever until the end of time, can they bring back the classic Archer spy agency setting next season?
