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!
That unfinished endzone’s gonna bother me for the entire game.
Always good with some Tom Petty intro/bumper music. That Mike Campbell outro solo is beastly.
Jake Browning better be ready…..

You think Ty Willingham coached him up?
here’s hoping!
Let’s see how hostile the Clubhouse is for the Rose Bowl.
LET’S GO BUCKEYES!

Ya know how in the 50s they’d have those “visions of the future” with flying cars and flat telescreens and robot maids to replace women? My vision is to someday have the technology to accurately calculate when a sporting event is actually gonna fucking start.
should the maid robot be separate from the fuck robot? DISCUSS.
They have to be separate, we don’t have the technology to make a robot that can effectively clean in only 23 hours and 57 minutes per day.
I was kinda rooting for this.
Hey Hippo, you saw what Richt did, yes?
retire?
OK, should I drop a G on UGa?
Absolutely
You’re just screwing with me now.
I’ll venmo you another G for myself if that helps.
yes yes yes
12.5 is an awfully high line. I decided to pass.
Yeah, that’s kinda where I’m heading too.
They’ll probably beat it, but when they go ground, and backdoor cover? Not worth the risk.
It’s your money, so yes.
GODDAMMIT!!!!!!
WHEW
I really don’t give a shit about LSU or UCF, but I’m rooting for a turnover and a UCF score here so I don’t feel stupid.
Hitler Mice have been doubled up in yards. Not like they have been effectively trading blows.
Wait, which one is Hitler Mice?
UCF – tis a Walt Disney allusion
Well they do have to play Devry, and the University of Phoenix in Conference play.
UCF. I’m waiting for the Hippo translator to update.
LOL. teh Hippo Translator 3000 is still in development.
That is eternal.
Jefferson has had a horrible game. Fumbled fair catch, dropped TD, now THAT
DON’T SCARE ME LIKE THAT, LSU
Chicken dinner!
Hot Pockets do not work well in an Air Fryer. Noted.
Franklin costs himself 10-15 seconds by calling timeout after the first down, too. They’ll now have time for 1-2 plays.
COME ON, MIKE BROWN! DO IT!
NO! DON’T LISTEN! YOU’RE OLD! YOU’RE RICH! RETIRE! LET YOU DAUGHTER TAKE OVER!
You’re talking about a different Mike Brown are you?
No, I’m talking about the Bengals. Hiring Hue would be hilarious to me.
They save money on not paying guys for interviews. Abides by the Rooney rule. He will come cheap.
Checks out.
To Bengals fans, it will be a slap in the face, and end up with the fanbase abandoning the team, the lease not getting renewed when its up in 8 years or so, and the team moving out of Cincinnati.
To everyone else, it would be hilarious.
so what’s the downside?
–Mike Brown
alright LSU gonna get the W.
Whats next?
The Urban Meyer Retirement Bowl
I hope he both loses and dies. Fuckstain that he is.
Can he just die? Is that an option?
if there’s visible anal leakage, I will allow it.
“And the final score is Washington 35, Ohio St. 3, and Urban Meyer’s been drawn and quartered at midfield. Good night from Pasadena.”
I put money on Paedo St when they were down big. That field goal was fucking bullshit.
I thought about it. Grrrrr.
Who’s got two thumbs and is now really kicking himself for forgetting to bet LSU?
Poor Hippo. Really being dumped on today.
I’M TALKING ABOUT ME DAMMIT!!!! I INTENDED TO DROP A G ON LSU AND FREAKING FORGOT TO PLACE THE BET.
BC gets cancelled and I forget to bet LSU. Jeebus.
Now how am I gonna buy all the vodka i need next month????????
Drop the G on UW losing big.
Or stick to the plastic bottles on the bottom shelf.
I liked McSorley more when he was beating up anyone who looked sideways at Gretzky.
You mean like Bryan Berard?
I am only familiar with Kings players and that goalie who got his neck sliced open.
Tired defense is tired.

BONK!
Insert “I haven’t seen Penn State make a bunch of young males nervous since…” joke here.
Penn State defensive coach Jerry Sandusky raped dozens of boys and Joe Paterno knew and looked the other way as did others who consciously ignored it or actively covered it up, and the whitewashing has continued to this day because everyone involved with Penn State is a fucking bastard who deserves to be buried neck deep in a field full of starving dogs.
yup, and they still get fawning pundit coverage to this day
Fuck it.
I mean, that’s what started all this.
— Blair Walsh
Jesus. That rail will have a (literal) ton of weight behind it. That very easily could have killed that man.
MOAR DERP
Hitler Mice have dropped THREE touched downs in the last 7 or so plays.
What is a Kikuchi and why did the Mariners just give it 100MM?
likely a #3 SP, posted from Japan
So #1 for the Mariners. RIP Felix and Paxton.
I really like Justus Sheffield
LOL, what a dumb fucking challenge
Mumble mumble…GUMBO!!!!…mumble mumble…
That was one hell of a DERP!
I guess no fake national championship this year
SUDDEN CHANGE!
“What? Where?”
– Todd Marinovich
attempted pass interference and a drop. FUN!
41-35 would still cover. I like 13 points as a margin.
Paedos getting whomped. Hitler Mice might be on that route, too.
You have LSU on the ML or ATS here Sir Hippo?
Put extra juice to get it down to LSU -5.5. I bet when it was -7 (standard rate), went up to -8 at kickoff.
“Pass is legal, #2 was in the area”
I mean, yeah, he was in the stadium.
Cowbells just punted on 4th and an inch. 4 minutes left, only 1 timeout.
“Gotta lot of faith in our defense, just have to make the stop” said the Cowbells’ coach after the game, explaining the loss.
they got lucky that the 3rd and 3 pass was underthrown, else they never get ball back.

Surprised they didn’t shoot Sammy Davis, Jr. when he opened the window, then claimed they thought that the window latch was a gun.
They wouldn’t have needed an excuse in 1966.
The Winter classic had a camera being worn by the referee. I’d kill of uncensored audio from that.
Has Marchand licked it yet?
“No!” she said.
3rd & 38
JV NFL BLITZ!
If LSU has to forfeit due to not having 11 players due to ejections and UCF wins 2-0 (assuming they don’t have the lead), how would that count in regards to the spread and over/under?
BECAUSE YOU TOUCH YOURSELF! HAH!
/wait, what?
Targeting! Drink.
Way ahead of you there.
TOONCES, NO!
Who has two thumbs and is no longer happy he forgot to bet on LSU?
Still nae Hippo
“Kinda sick and tired about you bragging about the thumbs thing.”

Deep cut.
I get your reference from my reference.
and the unintended reference that neither of us was expecting.
Let me go to the reference section of teh library.
I forget where teh library is….shit.
It’s over — aw.
It’s not a fun read.
