Your “Practice Squad? More Like Suicide Squad, Amirite?” Thursday Kristallnacht Football Open Thread

What is there to say? This game is not for the gentle of soul, nor the weak of stomach, the loose of bowels, the scurvy of teeth or the Giant of heart. I don’t think I’ve ever cheered for a truly dominant team that I knew was going to run train on a hapless opponent. Check that-back in my wee days I would sometimes (sometimes) watch the Canadian national hockey team destroy the Norwegians or somesuch. Guh. Of course I don’t recall a single detail of that. Where was I? Yeah, this one’s gonna be a disastercake. And I don’t know why we’re here-other than the fact that we’ll try to put together a cracker of a joke that might cause a total stranger several hundred miles away to unintentionally shart his sweatpants.

TO THE GAME!

Jizziants/Pats:

Let’s run this baby down, shall we?

-the two lead rb’s for the Giants are practice squaders

-Engram, Shepherd, Saquon and Gallman are out (so too are Burkhead, Dorsett and Chung)

-according to PFF, New York’s secondary is comfortably in last place in overall rankings. Opposing qb’s average 72.7% of their passes against them.

-Brady is 12-1 on Thursday Nights

-Rook qb’s are 0-12 vs. Bill Belichick at Gillette Stadium

So what I’m trying to say is, maybe kiss your kids (longer than 3.5 seconds is a no-no, and please! On the cheek for gosh darn sake!) or call your mom-whether it’s across the room or at the assisted living facility, it matters. So what if she confuses you for her actual favourite child, you’ll have given her joy, in that in her mind she wasn’t badgered by ‘the one I should have swallowed’.

Hey! The Sunday start is 9:30 EST sharp for Carolina/Tampa in Londontown. IT’S MANDATORY.

Type away…

Why on Earth has the line gone down in this game? Did I miss something or is it just heavy New York money coming in on the Giants?

Unpopular opinion that I doubt is that unpopular:

I still refuse to believe that Tom Brady should be considered the greatest NFL player of all time.

People were calling him the best ever in 2005 when he was still looking for a 4th ring. I came up with what I felt was a list of objective criteria that he did not meet, and despite his subsequent SB wins, he still doesn’t meet those.

Obviously he’s too 1% of all quarterbacks ever, but its impossible for me to ignore how he has had arguably the best coach ever guiding his career and providing him an amazing supporting cast, he plays in an era where QBs have more advantages than ever, and he plays in an absurdly influential sports city. Pretty easy to control sports narratives when the largest sports channel in the country is two miles down the road or where ever the hell the ESPN office is.

He’s a rich man’s troy aikman. But instead of emmitt Smith he gets to play the jets bills and dolphins twice a year

Rant over.

King Hippo

also consistently plays for under-market moneys, which gives them a YUUUUUGE competitive advantage

ballsofsteelandfury

I’m sorry, but how is this view unpopular on this blog?

Honest Take: He’s in the conversation for Best Ever, but there is no one who is Best Ever because the rules and styles change so much.

You put the greatest QB from the 30s-40s in today’s NFL, he’s unable to handle the passing offense and fast speed of the game.
You put in the greatest QB from today in the 30s-40s, he won’t survive a season because the rules will be different and the safety won’t be the same.

Vontaze Burfict in today’s NFL is a monster who doesn’t deserve to play another damn down. You put him in the 1970s, suddenly he’s the greatest LB ever, who plays to the whistle and he’s a Hall of Famer.

You can’t compare players from different eras. Brady’s one of the best. Like Manning, Elway, Favre, Young, Montana….

King Hippo

This is correct. I never saw Johnny Unitas play a single, full game (let alone in real time). How do I compare and contrast that accurately?

It was Paul McGann. That guy has some range.

The Disney version of musketeers? With sheen and Sutherland?

My grandpa took me to see that as a youngin’, then he grew resentful that my only exposure to “a classic” was the film and I never bothered to gain any deeper understanding

Redshirt

It was a good movie. Well acted. And Rebecca De Mornay. Enough said.

King Hippo

yeah, she always made me feel things

Viva La Tabula Raza

However, did not hold a candle to Richard Lester’s 1970s take on the story, Three Musketeers and Four Musketeers. Raquel Welch >>> Rebecca De Mornay. That’s probably more a generational opinion though.

So today was colonoscopy day. I was glad to get that out of the way, the prep is fooking ‘orrible. Results a-ok. But they said I shouldn’t have anything alcoholic for the rest of the day. Why the fuck not? I’m home, not driving, and my team is playing tonight. I’m having a pitcher of beer margaritas for the game tonight. Maybe I’ll do an edible too; I took tomorrow off so I can get the 4-day Indigenous Holocaust Celebration weekend.

Gatoraids

Yeah that drink is so vile I could only finish half of it for prep before i just started throwing up trying to drink anymore. Still was as clean as a whistle.

Viva La Tabula Raza

It’s weird, the one I got was six ounces of clear fluid that tasted sorta like spoiled cherry kool aid, taken once the night before and once at 4 AM, but I didn’t have any problem throwing it down. The after-action report even complimented the cleanliness of my ascending, transverse, and descending colons, suggesting I guess that I obeyed all of the directions.

Viva La Tabula Raza

My friend, I’ve been doing the beer margaritas since I learned how to make them back in ’06 down in Rocky Point Mexico. I think DFO was still swimming around in KSK’s balls back then, from what I can gather…

Viva La Tabula Raza

Oh no, my defensiveness was only an affectation… My enjoyment of this site relies much on the nudge nudge wink wink passive-aggresiveness that goes into so many of the commentary exchanges here. Ya know, like if I said FUCK YOU SCOTCHY!!

(I won’t name what it is, for the heathens around us)

I’m kind of nervous. I’m mean I never done something like this with so many people watching, but they said I’ll enjoy it and everyone will know all the Safe Words and it will…

Oh, you mean My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic ending. Honestly, I’m feel out of it in Season 8. I watch important episodes, but I don’t watch every week anymore.

Viva La Tabula Raza

Wow, NFL Network is really beating the shit out of two games that happened 7 and 12 years ago to try and generate excitement about tonight’s matchup. Dudes, I took possession of a puppy the day of the last NYG SB win, and that dog is so old now that I’m wondering how much longer it’ll be before I have to have her put to sleep.

Viva La Tabula Raza

I would. Poor Gertrude, she’s so sweet.

I’m honestly more disappointed that you spent money to watch a will Smith movie in 2019.

I’m honest even more disappointed that you don’t realize I’m joking about spending money on Will Smith.

And I’m disappointed in your apparent inability to recognize faux disappointed.

Don’t worry, you wouldn’t be the first. My x-men power is turning off other people’s sarcasm detectors

Yeah, I’m thinking I’ll be a refuge to the Browns or Colts bandwagon. I’m doubting Steelers because my dad may still be alive and he’ll kill me dead if I ever root for them.

The Colts. Now there’s a loyal, reliable franchise.

At least you’ll have Marvin Lewis to stablely see you through the transition proccess and into the next century.
