NFL Nuggets:
- The Seahawks traded Nick Vannett to the Steelers for a fifth-round pick in 2020.
- The Steelers were down a tight end after Vance McDonald hurt himself against the Niners.
- The trade gives the Seahawks an expected 10 picks in the 2020 draft.
- The Seahawks then signed Raiders castoff & former Seahawk Luke Willson to offset the move.
- Willson announced his return in quality meme style.
- The Steelers were down a tight end after Vance McDonald hurt himself against the Niners.

- Multiple sources report Melvin Gordon will be ending his holdout soon.
- He has to report by November 29th in order to accrue a year for free agency.
- NFL Network shill Ian Rapoport says it will likely be for next week’s Chargers home game versus the Broncos.
- This week they play the Dolphins, and Philip Rivers’ eight children are expected to lineup alongside Mike Pouncey and the ghost of Antonio Gates.
- The pundits are after Jalen Ramsey for his “injuries” and “illnesses”.
Marrone was asked about Jalen Ramsey’s back injury that’ll keep him out of practice. Says Ramsey told them his back tightened up. Marrone had no idea when that happened. Said Ramsey didn’t mention anything after last week’s game.

Actually, Twitter was a #content goldmine today. There was a brand new Giants cartoon about the passing of the QB torch by good friend of the site Draw Play Dave:
and one of my favourite follows, Super 70s Sports, had what I consider to be a perfect tweet.
I can’t tell if these are actual Dallas Cowboys cheerleaders or this is a still from a 70s porn flick. Which means someone did a perfect job here. pic.twitter.com/bt7sxGi2Zo

Anyone here awake and watching the U.S. rugby team get wrecked?
I was. Oof.
I propose an all 80’s night this sexy Friday.
Just a thought.

Funny:
“What color was the ground after Custers last stand? White, the Indians kept coming and coming.”
Fat Humps really living up to the name
found a funny:
ME: isn’t this great??
WIFE: not really
ME: *looks down from the top bunk* what’s wrong
As a fat guy, I always hated the top bunk. What a pain in the ass to ingress and egress. Needed a thunder jug for high beer-consumption nights, otherwise you were climbing up and down like Kong on the Empire State Bldg all fucking night.
I’m a skinny guy (“more or less”, according to my doctor) and as soon as I became a drunken mess (approximately midway through the first semester of my sophomore year of college) I realized that having to climb a ladder to get into bed was a dumb fucking idea.
That’s how Danger Guerrero (the blogger) got paralyzed.
Tomorrow is a telework day, which means I get to sleep till 630 or 7 instead of awakening at 4 to drive to the orifice. On telecommute days, as soon as I wake up, I’m already at work. And without any pants on, even!
In view of that, I think I will have another dose of this Glenmorangie Nectar of the HIghlands and load another bowl.
I kinda like slow nights here at DFO, I don’t have to struggle to keep up and some interesting subjects are often broached, such as the Python tonight, and you know your comment is probably going to actually be read because everyone isn’t watching 8 or 9 different ballgames at once and 8 comments get posted every goddam minute. Vive la difference!
Saw on the 506 today that due to Cowboys being on Sunday night, and Texans playing Carolina on Fucks, I get to watch the battle of the undefeated AFC East juggernauts all the way down heah in South Texas in the comfort of my reefer-smoking living room instead of the redneck-infused sports bar or my Republican fellow Patriots fan co-worker’s NFL-Ticket-having TV room. Excelsior!
Fuck yeah working from home. Watch the footy tomorrow morning!
I’m going to get elective torn tendon repair surgery on my foot just so I can work from home for three months.
Yikes. Hope you have a speedy recovery!
Fuck that, I hope it keeps me out of the office for a fucking year or two. Come on complications!! (I have a 74 mile daily round trip commute)
FWIW I read pretty much every comment here.
As do I

Does one of the commentists have a dick tattoo?
And is it wrong to think that (while I would never) it’s sorta cool?
No, don’t wanna see it.
But still.
The dick tattoo is only really cool if it’s self-inflicted.
Self-Inflicted Dick Tattoo would be a nice band name.
Yeah, a Forced Dick Tattoo (also a good folk-numetal band name) is not cool.
Well, I was thinking along the lines that “self-inflicted” implied that you did it to yourself, rather than voluntarily had a professional do it when you were drunk (rather than under some duress from outside forces or peer pressure).
You know the old joke about the guy who tells his buddy he wants to get a tattoo of a hundred dollar bill on his dick? His buddy keeps begging him to tell him why and the guy keeps refusing. And then eventually the buddy offers to PAY for the dick tattoo if he’ll just explain why. So the guy says
There are three reasons I want to get a $100 tattooed on my dick:
1) I like to play with my money
2) I like to watch my money grow and
3) The next time my wife wants to blow $100, she can stay at home.
I prefer the old joke were the elder nurse exclaims she saw a man with a penis tattoo that read “Swan” then the younger more attractive nurse replies “That’s funny, when I read it it said “Saskatchewan”.
Jesus I’m stealing my Dad’s jokes.
THAT one sure goes to 11.
As I usually am when I participate here, I was drinking recently and got some suggestions from other commenters, none of whom I can remember who provided the advice. Anywhere, here are the results:
Somebody suggested that I try an 8 y-o Glenmorangie that I could find for mid-30’s for a bottle.
Somebody alerted me to the existence of a weighty tome about the auto industry by David Halberstam.
REPORT:
Could not find 8 y-o Glenmorangie, but found a bottle of 10-yo for $32.
Downloaded Halberstam book, and am reading between visits here, and sipping the Glenmorangie. It’s a DFO-recommended night, I guess. Book is everything I love about the author’s deep-dive histories, and the whiskey is beddy beddy good..
I apologize for not remembering the names of the commentists who provided the suggestions, but thank you for your input!

I tried an Impossible Whopper tonight. It was fine. I also tried chicken fries, and they sucked.
It’s as good as a veggie burger gets which is just above a garbage actual burger.
Honestly with all the Whopper trimmings I barely noticed any change in taste or texture of the burger.
Hamburgers maed out of vegetables? French Fried potatoes made out of meat? What a country!
This is going to send me to sleep* with a smile on my face.
*”sleep” as it would be defined by Blackout Brett Kavanaugh
Last month while visiting the ancestral homeland, I was strong-armed into going to a vegan restaurant right there by Brown Uni and RI School of Design (home of Talking Heads!) on the Providence River in Providence, Rhode Island. As you might guess because of it’s collegiate location, the place was chock full of nose rings, eyebrow rings, bizarre tats, earlobe gauges, bizarre hairstyles, etc etc.
I got the New Burger, https://www.matthewkenneycuisine.com/new-burger, as did my cousin, her husband, and my old girlfriend, who is most definitely a New England Crunchy Granola type who approves of all things vegetabilian.
We all agreed that for the 15 bucks per burger, we got fucked. They tried too hard in formulating the recipe to make it taste like a good beef burger that they neglected the texture, which was like eating fucking play-doh.
Since due to that surgery I had, I can’t eat very much food at any one sitting anymore, I have decided that I will henceforth just go ahead and order the worst fucking thing health-wise on the menu, because I can’t each much more than a few bites of it anyway.
Current situation: Mrs. Fozz is away. Middle Fozz Spawn announced we have to read three chapters of some book. I have been drinking Knob Creek Rye 100 Proof since we got home around 9. Soooo, I guess I gotta read shit with y kid. bbourble fore 5 engaged! Christ help me.
Drunk History is a good show.
IT REALLY IS.
So, Mid Fozz Spawn’s instructor has the power to assign YOU homework? That doesn’t seem right, or maybe I am misreading the situation.
Too many goofy assignments now require parent participation. Had to record my kid doing a project for some fucking reason and I spent the whole thing wondering if throwing it at him midway through would be funny enough for the teacher to not report it to CPS
There’s only one way to find out.
Yes, fuck THAT shit. I was readin thte Giver to him and fallling alssep. Guess too much Knob Creek, but fuck it. I had to do my own work growing’ up the nuns didnt’ go fro the “parent assitsnace” shit. Ah, fuck it, love my kids so i guess i can read to them. gotta dig up the old penthouse forums, nowhtere’s some knolwedge!
Man, I never thought this would actually happen to me, but…
Stalingrad was not alot of fun. Rats for dinner, bread made out of sawdust, more rats, and then maybe you lunch down on your cousin. Fuck the Nazis.
Actually, I understand from my readings that what you describe was not a Stalingrad-specific thing, but occurred throughout the USSR during the 1920s and 30s as well.

Getting off the small screen for the big, this must have been the most difficult scene to ever film in the history of cinema, especially from 2 minutes onward. Those poor bastards must have had to do a million takes with all the extras cracking the fuck up. Fucking Palin should have gotten a Bafta AND an Oscar.

“And Marx claims it was offsides” still cracks me the fuck up.
I’ve always thought that the appeal of the vast majority of MPFC’s TV work is that it is not totally hooked into the time it was created, and has aged well. Not a lot of references to contemporary events, which is the problem with trying to watch old episodes of most American comedy sketch shows (SNL, MAD TV, etc). I would guess that a lot of younger people can get behind MPFC because of the non-temporality of their jokes where they go WTF? to references made in a 1980s SNL. That’s part of the reason I think they can edit those SNL episodes from 90 down to 30 minutes, including musical performance.
I’m going to crop this and it’s going to be the cover of the debut album of the band I am going to form the day after tomorrow:

When I was in the Navy there was a doctor who would find all the uncircumcised guys and he would circumcise them. He would sew all the foreskins together and make wallets. When you rubbed them they turned into suitcases.
If you were actually in the Navy, you would have introduced that sea story with, “This is a no-shitter.”

How did you find Monty Python?
/I was watching a PBS channel late at night and saw boobs. I wanted to see more boobs and then I saw the recreation of the Battle of Pearl Harbor (I think) by that women’s club. I couldn’t stop laughing at the complete absurdity of it.
It was about 1975 for me. Living in Southern California. On LA PBS station, they would show a couple episodes every Saturday night. I was 15 or 16, grass had just swept the neighborhood, and that shit was a revelation. I have no recollection whatsoever of which episode or skit was the first I ever saw, but it was a life/gamechanger. I do remember seeing Holy Grail, uncut, on the PBS affiliate in San Antonio a year or so later, and was pretty shocked that they would broadcast such a thing here in the heart of the 13th century and thinking “Maybe it won’t be as bad as I thought when I found out we were moving here from my beloved Redlands CA.”
Ron Howard voice: “It was.”
All the PBS stations were afraid of Monty Python when it was first offered to them; they thought it was brilliant but too “out there“ for their viewers. This included stations in Boston, New York, Washington, etc. The PBS station in Dallas was the first one in the U.S. to air it and it was a hit so all the others followed.
I like the fact that even my born-in-1937 old man dug the shit out of it too (well, he is the guy that turned 6 year old me on to Tom Lehrer and 11 year old me on to the National Lampoon). In 1979 he was a freshly retired 24-year square-ass Air Force officer who had just started getting high with me and sitting down and watching funny shit on the VCR, including Python stuff. Hell, he bought this at significant cost several years ago and still sits down with it on occasion (although at 82, he has stopped smoking the weed but still consumes an abnormal amount of gin and whiskey on a daily basis).
Just arrived at grandparents’ house with parents (I couldn’t have been more than eight, so late 70s or so). Sat down by the TV while the adults were talking, and on TV was a B&W picture of a tree, unmoving. Then, a voice intoning…
“The Larch. The…LARCH.”
It was the most absurd thing I’d ever heard – and the funniest. I had no idea what the hell was going on, but I knew that I LOVED it. Couldn’t get enough of Python after that. Several years later, I figured out how to program a VCR just to tape it because, for some reason, we couldn’t get it, but the neighbors for whom I housesat for a week could.
I loved that one too. What the fuck is a larch, I wondered.
My parents showed my Holy Grail when I was 7th or 8th grade and I was hooked from there.
Do you think Rivers is once of those assholes that desperately wanted sons and kept getting girls so he keeps having kids trying to even the count?
I doubt if that’s the only kind of asshole he is.
My grandmother had six kids and became widow. She married my grandfather, a widower with six kids of his own. Together they had six more kids. My mother was the youngest. I had a first cousin who was born in 1928.
I hope i”m the first one in with the Brick Meathook as Brady Bunch descendant joke. Pretty slow here tonight so maybe?
My grandparents put The Brady Bunch to shame. My grandmother was squirting out kids every nine months.

Hard to believe that the 50th anniversary of that show’s first airing on the BBC is only 10 days off (5 October 1969). That comedy troupe, the National Lampoon magazine Mad Magazine, and Tom Lehrer all seriously warped/influenced my sense of humour.

Fucking Bomb Pops. When I was a kid they were huge, like the one Eli has up there in the cartoon, 2 or 2-1/2 inches in diameter. I bought a box of sugar free Bomb Pops after my surgery because it was recommended by the bariatric clinic as a low-penalty snack (sugar free popsicles in general, not Bomb Pops specifically). Goddam things were maybe half the diameter of the ones that you could get from the Good Humor truck back in the day. Even the picture on the box made it look like they were still the huge ones. What a fucking ripoff.
