Everton hosting Leicester right now (NBCSN), with my Toffees needing all three points, and needing them badly. I think we shall get them, but then again I am a moron.
Next up is Arsenal hosting Mighty Whitey (10:00, NBCSN). Litre’s boys have been a little more alive of late, but this will be a severe test indeed. Arsenal have been a bit nondescript on recent form.
Finally, mighty Cardiff host wee Spurs (12:30, NBCSN). Surely Pochettino will be playing for a point in this one, yeah?
EDIT: Hi folks, Rikki here! This post has been updated to become your official home for open threading on the JV bowl games happening throughout the day. On guard!
UCF is hell bent on murdering LSU QBs aren’t they?
Well they usually don’t play teams with any sort of depth chart…and this is their standard play style.
You just don’t hear about it because who gives a fuck about East Carolina QB getting murdered.
I still think it is hilarious that people try to argue a team that plays Memphis twice a year should be in any talks for a National Championship….especially when they barely got past them the first go round.
Still bingeing The Leftovers.
Again…2nd best series ever, Deadwood being #1. Amazing casting/acting.
Need to binge that. After I’m done with shameless
one of my kids recommended Shameless, tis on my list.

Kentucky is #12?! How did this happen?!
Because you touch yourself at night.
Then how are they only #12?

I want to do this NFL Playoff Best Ball thing on FanDuel, but I have no idea what I’m doing.
I’m intrigued
Still better than average driver.
The plot thickens.

Fiesta Bowls have always been the boss. I’ve got 12 DFO bucks on a bananacakes finish.
Oh yea!
So not only was I told I have to go do something, I have two people micromanaging me, telling me I’m doing it wrong.
If you don’t hear from me after today, please send bail money.
that was a cool play.
we got a shootout now, right???
When is it ok to be done with or annoyed by Christmas once it’s over?
My rule is that it all goes away on New year’s day but wondered about other opinions.
/currently listening to Christmas music in a mall
I say music is acceptable through New Year’s Day. After today it’s overdone.
Although home decor I’m ok with leaving up for a while longer.
I ascribe to this. I’ll be damned if I’m doing anything productive today.
Well, made it to midnight last night and I’m waking up to what feels like a cold. And I’ve got all my family coming over and many things to cook.
Suppose I should get out of bed.
Great start 2019!
The Beatings Will Continue Until Morale Improves!
I’ll take Exhibitions I Never Expected To Be This Chippy for $800, Alex!
$800
What is the bet Hippo made on LSU?
/divide by 10, am not that cray-cray
I read that as “Exhibitionists”.
Funnier NFL situation:
Antonio Brown requests trade from Steelers.
-or-
Fournette’ ($7 million?!) guaranteed money getting voided from his contract by Tom Coughlin.
again…YES
hahahaha
i go with the Antonio Brown thing…
C) Both!!
I just googled the Fournette thing and one of the first links was the Daily Caller. Can you imagine Tucker’s readers jerking themselves off to the thought of a black man getting shafted out of $7 million?
/joke’s on them, though, the money goes to a Muslim.
Inshallah!
*punch thrown*
hahahaha
dude just got tossed out of the game. I wonder where they gonna throw to now?
UCF woke a sleeping tiger. Fuck ‘em. That hit on the LSU QB was dirty as fuck. No helmet-to-helmet according to these crook refs, yet the kid takes off his helmet on the sidelines, and there’s 2 holes in his fucking jaw. I hope LSU absolutely POUNDS these punks by dialing up 50 more running plays.
Hope LSU rolls ’em
Agreed. If you win, you win with class.
Time to watch football-Infinity War has blossomed into total silliness.
Oh wow…finally called a penalty on UCF!
So how bad do you think the violations are? I mean the ones UCF must be running right now to field this much talent at a no-name school that can’t get on TV unless its the end of the year. Its got to be up there with SMU at its height.
Just as long as it doesn’t involve child rape…or rape in general…I will be okay wit hit.
Tranquilizers on the opponents’ water?
So is the NCAA obviously.
Some football player showed spontaneous emotion and happiness? Let’s take him out back and beat the shit out of him!
Happy New Year lizard friends. Never have I been more disappointed in a TCBY being a pretzel place than right now, waiting for a train.
Who has two thumbs and is currently very happy he forgot to bet on LSU?
Not Hippo obviously.
So Hippo is no happy or Hippo has no thumbs?
Correct.
YES
I demand a Gravity Falls/Avengers Thingy! And I’m on Team Dipper!
I’m happy for UCF, but how was that not a flag nowadays? People have had flags thrown for receivers lowering their head after they dive and for touching the helmet strap with a hand-hair. That wasn’t a “I gotta save this touchdown” tackle. That was a “I’m going to destroy him” tackle.”
the only thing I know about UCF is that the comedian Daniel Tosh went there.
Cool!
Connors knocked the fuck out of the QB of LSU and then like a retard, stood over the QB and jaw jacked an unconscious player.
To be fair, if you’re going to talk shit you might as well play it safe and murder them first, then, talk to the corpse.
How the fuck was there not at least a taunting call? Connors stood over the QB after the hit, talking smack.
It was a taunting call, but the play was still occurring. How did the TD stand?
I see the taunting call did get called, and it wasn’t Conner. It was a completely different shithead standing over an injured player.
#44 Evans.
Touchdown called back due to QB Execution. Wait: No flag?!
Looks to me like the crown of the helmet went right into the head an neck area.
But no call…
Good. Both SEC teams playing are losing. For one brief moment, I am content.
Realistic Bengals hire?
If its someone is/was in the Bengal family, I’m hoping for Eric Bieniemy (Chiefs OC), but I’m not holding my breath.
THE HEROES ARE FIGHTING AGAINST EACH OTHER! WHEN WILL THEY LEARN?
If its Civil War, it was better than the comics, but it could’ve been solved in five minutes with logic.
Avengers: “If we’re weren’t there the following would happen: the Earth would be conquered, the Earth would be dead, or a square block would go boom. Now if you support those things, we’re okay with that, we’ll go somewhere else and let you get killed, enslaved or extincted.”
After existentialist Gamora questions?
Looks like UCF is really trying in for their participation trophy this year.

Marvin Lewis is salting the earth on his way out of Cincy.

Can’t have the replacement do better than the former now can we?
At least Steelers fans got to see a #84 in yellow and black score one last time this season.
How bad is LSU gonna smash UCF here?
[watches kickoff]
Oh.
One of the floats is stuck. they bringing in a tow truck…..
ummmmmmm okkkkkk
Ominous
You have one job Parade Float. ONE JOB!
Sounds like a job for Underdog, frankly.

Will Ferrel and Molly Shannon oh yea!!!!!
Is that this year’s Grand Tour float? Why the hell did they let Hammond drive it?
Infinity War is some serious eyeball porn.

Endgame is going to be like Ghostbusters II. They’ll have the same people doing it, but the first one was so great it cannot be topped.
I rewatched it on Netflix and it’s so bad.
But… but, the midget guy from Game of Thrones was re-cast as a really, really big person!
FUCK.
At least I made back my Everton losses on Bury. Whew.
Have $36 on Draw HT/Cardiff FT in the next fixture. +1410
I just adore these garage rocking Madrid ladies. Even if they support Real (but hopefully they prefer Atleti)

I stopped watching. Don’t want to anger up the blood today.
been on the front foot, even after the goal. Maybe keep not watching?
never mind
Bitchin’ Kamara on the pitch for Mighty Whitey. I know the Saints have a bye week, but this is still pretty unusual.
and he puts one past the keeper!
Still bitchin’ in the other footy, too.
Bury back level, but I still need the winner…
GET IN!!!!!
GODDAMMIT
It’s overcast and windy here in VA, but EXTREMELY warm for a January day. Thanks Obama!
1-0 at the half? Whites not yet ded!
We ded now.
might yet get your prophecied 4-nil
Visit Rwanda? Thanks but no thanks.
There it fucking is.
I watch games with the top 6 clubs with such disdain that I do not have hope for any points.

Ahhh top of the morning. Cant wait to get pounded 4 nil.
misery loves (imaginary) company
Oh great Rainieri has never beaten Arsenal. 17 fucking tries.
he’d bite your hand off for a point today
You know who else got pounded by 4? That’s right, Deanna Favre.
Premier League needs playoffs.
I’d like to see Jim Mora in the League!
Jordan Pickford is wearing a baseball cap. That’s legal?
Saw another keeper don one this week. Based on the length of the shadows, late afternoon sun appears brutal in Engloid.
Alright, Alright, Alright
This is some dire shite.
