Like most of you, I’m wrapping up the three-day weekend in advance of resuming life as a teacher on Tuesday.
But a new school year will bring new students, returning headaches, fresh challenges, and it’s eventual completion brings me one satisfying year closer to full retirement.
So I trundle on, hoping I can get through to some, and help the others get on the way to their future.

This is also my last Monday for a while, as football takes over my slot. I’ll be back in February to spin those classic rock tunes you love so much. Until then,
Oh, come on!
On the DFO suicide pool–did I sign up? I can’t find an email confirmation and am on tilt.
I think if you go to ESPN’s app, it’s still loaded in from last year. You just have to hit “rejoin.”
That worked. Woot!
Doh!
Just got back to LA, got in the Lyft, the driver asked where we were coming from, and I legit couldn’t remember. Fuck.
Maybe . . . you never left.

That sounds like the beginning of a Jason Bourne movie.
The Bourne Colonoscopy.
I’m done tipping at the register before my order arrives. I have never ONCE had an above-average experience when tipping at the time of order; however, I’ve been left to hang out like any other chump who didn’t just throw his money away like an idiot many a time.
Rover spot in football. Havent heard that term since my high school days
This may be the first time a Cupcake Game is played at the Cupcake’s place.
Completely ignored the post until this very moment. As IT in education, my least favorite part is when the teachers come back. I love when teachers make requests like “Make all the student passwords the same because it’s easier that way and doesn’t confuse the kids” when every student over the age of 9 has 2FA enabled on their google accounts and uses KeePass and shit while I have to reset the teacher’s email password 5 times the first day, but y’know, make it easy for the kids.
Nailed It!
That’s high school all-star DeSean Jackson showing off his signature “premature touchdown celebration fumble” move that he brought to the NFL.
What’s the O/U on destructive fire references in regards to Notre Dame this season/week/thread?
How about we call it a wash and just set UND and South Bend on fire?
Why the fuck does it feel every single notre dame game feels like they’d lose if they faced just marginally better coaching?
Because it’s true
Survivor and Loser pool thoughts? Can’t get around THAT aspect of Week 1.
So far I like Balmer to win (v. fuck you Dolphin!) and Redacteds to lose (@ Iggles)
Nevah bet against early season Fitzmagic. Give me pre-femur drum Spanos clan.
he gon’ die, though. I’m not sure we’ve seen a worse OL in 10+ years.
Betting against Miami seems the safest strategy so far.
I’m gonna ride that dolphin.
Jesus. That guy looked like a dog that got hit by a car.
Point of Order: Was that a typo and he looks like his dog was hit by the car or is that correct as written and he looks like the dog hit by the car?
and either way, did ya fap to it?
Good grief. Is Louisville allergic to success?
I assure you that such would be against Commissioner Swofford’s (East Coast Disgrace) script for the evening. It must be DABO!! Irish!! and fuckall else
How to Make Enemies and Alienate Friends: Labor Day Edition
yeah, by NAWT spelling “LaboUr” the DFO way 😀
So many fumbles
Unsanctioned DFO Fake or For Real Poll:
Trump doesn’t understand how climate works? I am shock.
Thank God the people of Alabama can finally rest easy tonight.
This is the ultimate “not sure if one team is surprisingly bad or if the other is surprisingly good” game
This game is a great reminder why not to bet on collegiate sprots.

I hope he’s currently betting the 2nd half under.
I didn’t say NOT BET – some very lively 2nd division Lesser Footy to live bet
Week 1 JV is just insanely difficult. Why I only bet two ML upsets (Nevada, Wyoming) because the odds were great (huzzah, both hit) and the o/u on Ducks/War Damn Eagle (because I was bored, it failed like usual).
No #ACTION on Week 1 NFL so far.
Dammit, I made a prop bet for four consecutive fumbles leading to turnovers.
Damn it
YOU GET A FUMBLE! AND YOU GET A FUMBLE! AND YOU GET A FUMBLE!
Up top bro!
Great minds and such and such
I like to imagine that you’re both lying in bed together watching TV, each with your own iPad.
There’s a spot in between us if you’d just ask.
YOU GET A FUMBLE, YOU GET A FUMBLE, YOU GET A FUMBLE…
“Independent Ball Movement,” usually not a good thing
3rd and 27? JV NFL BLITZ!
I’m pretty sure a parking guy does that you’re legally allowed to murder him

For now.
I HAVEN’T SEEN THE IRISH GETTING GASHED LIKE THIS SINCE EDWARD LONGSHANKS REINSTATED PRIMAE NOCTIS.
Coach Kelly is gonna have a bunch of video assistants nervously eyeing weather reports for this week’s practices.
BANNER!!
Stumbled across this gem yesterday:
I couldn’t think of anything good so I named my FF team the Virtue Signalers and used an image of Mike Pence as my avatar.
Pretty good. Could have just went with “calls his wife mother”
I have Cam and Robby Anderson so I just butchered a Crash Team Racing joke.
Class after class of ugly ones, right?

This alternate ending where Rocket saves the universe from Thanos sucks.
found a funny:
[presses every button in elevator and looks at the girl next to me] what’s your favorite bread
…….. i don’t get it
Hopefully unlike my prom night, the Cardinals haven’t shot their wad too early…
Louisville looking veritably English the way they’re cutting through this Irish defense.
Would also have accepted a comparison to ammonium nitrate for the way they’re blowing up the Irish.
Oo. Starz has the new Broly movie. Gonna watch that instead.
Stupid question, i haven’t watched any of super, or the other the two new movies, people tell me i need to see this, does seeing either of the previous ones matter?
None of the Broly movies are canon, so they did a complete reboot to bring him into the storyline proper. So far, it’s pretty killer. You’ll be lost if you don’t watch Super, though. Super was fantastic, and includes all the stories from Battle of the Gods and Resurrection F, so you don’t have to watch the previous movies. Goku vs. Jiren during the last arc of super is among the best in all the series.
A grilled Nathan’s, toasted bun and spicy brown mustard with a cold ass beer?
That’ll do.
Is it really an upgrade to go from Happy Appy to Louisville?
the line is like 36 on this, so…NO
The meth is worse, but the opiods are probably better. So it’s a push.
Nothing says NCAA like having two teams risk their well-being playing for free for the rest of our entertainment on Labor Day. That said, fuck Notre Dame with a crowbar.
Which documentary should I watch tonight? JFK or Hilary’s America?
JFK is a vastly overrated, inconsequential President. And why the fuck would ANYONE want to watch ANYTHING HillyBob related at this point in time?
/Googles “book depositories near Hippo”
however, “Thirteen Days” is most excellent.
The point was that JFK is a batshit insane conspiracy movie (albeit very watchable) and Hilary’s America is a hit piece created by a dipshit conservative grifter and felon.
oh, I miss joke! Don’t mind me, I been up since 4a.
It is amusing how the right-wing conspiracy hive mind spun these stupefyingly complex Machievellan narratives around basically the most boring politician of the 21st century.
I wouldn’t say the JFK theories like what’s portrayed in the movie were conservative. I knew plenty of liberals (albeit older ones who probably were closer to Reagan than any current Dems) who swore by the belief that LBJ had JFK killed.
I meant HillyBob’s!
and yeah, those JFK conspiracies are pretty interesting
/also LBJ hisself apparently believed until his own death “I think the Cubans got him” – despite public allegiance to the Warren Report
13 days was a good film. Underrated
so good I didn’t even mind Kevin Costner. That much.

I ask FOAR the ppls’ grading of Bleached Assholes:
QB: C. Newton ($8), Bollo del Verdad ($3), Flacco ($1)
Hippo: Newton at that price point seemed worth the gamble, but FUUUUCKKKK both Janeane Garofolo ($2) and DAK! ($1) would have been even cheaper if I had not taken the bait.
RB: D. Johnson ($60), J. Mixon ($50 – Keeper), T. Cohen ($7), Darwin Thompson ($4), A. Mattison ($3), James Jackson ($2), K. Ballage ($2)
Hippo: I like all my depth/upside/keeper potential plays, but I should have planned better for a more reliable #4.
WR: D. Hopkins ($59 – keeper), B. Cooks ($16), K. Holladay ($10), Corey Davis ($4), J. “Bleeding Kansas” Brown ($1)
Hippo: Cooks is a steal at that price, even if I am meh on RRRRRRRRRRRAM IT!! this season. I should probably feel better about Holladay than I do, I wanted the security blanket of JEWKAH! but he went for a crazy amount (like $28).
TE: O. Howard ($14), D. Goeddert ($2)
Hippo: /invests heavily in Zach Ertz voodoo doll futures.
K: J. Slye ($1)
Hippo: High distance bonuses this league, otherwise who fucking cares.
Def: 500s ($2), Non-Gendered Cowpersons ($1)
Hippo: Great, my lead unit is imaginary. Also PHRASING.
I am irrationally proud that my suggestion to shift to 0.8 PPR was accepted by the commish. Having played both full and half PPR, I think full is better, but not overwhelmingly so. Thus, 0.8.
I think you’ll be waiting for Goeddert to score points all season
/No idea who that is
oh, that’s GOOD
Decimals are the spice of life
found a funny:

Her: was…was that your first time?
Me: no of course not
Her: you shouted “yay this is fun” like eight times
Me: *unwrapping a jolly rancher* well I noticed you said it zero times
Nadal is the purple-clad tennis hero that no one ever asked for.
Thanks for all your hard work, sir! Have a wonderful school year and may no one get shootsed.
Someone send BGR the community bullet proof vest. You can’t prove those stains are from me!
