Your “WEVENGE! Faux-Narrative” Thursday Night Football Open Thread

Oh, sure Adrian Peterson has yakked a bit about getting back at the old club but there’s other stuff out there about all the lovely times he had in Minny. Cousins and Keenum ain’t care about the false meta-narrative supposedly hanging over this tilt. I guess the air has to be filled with something. Hey, let’s do some news snippets!

-Drew Brees says he’s ready to go! Okay, if I was a qb I’d want to pad my stats vs. the Cards but why doesn’t he do Bridgewater a solid and let him have at it? Teddy would have more ammo when he’s negotiating his next contract with the Saints or someone else. It’s a dumb game and Drew would get an extra 2 weeks to heal. Coach Payton better make the right call here.

-The Trade Winds are howling and speculation abounds. Plenty of players have been whispered about, including Kenyan Drake, A.J. Green, X. Howard, Janoris Jenkins, Josh Norman, Robby Anderson, Alec Ogletree, (please!) and Trent Williams and on and on. Of course a small percentage of these guys will get moved but whatever.

-Related to above: Don’t it rankle you when a national paper gets something dead wrong about a player on your team? One of the lists included the Giants Markus Golden, who is 1.) on a cheap one year ‘prove it’ deal and 2.) the only guy currently getting pressure from the outside on the Giants D. I could go deeper on how this makes no flippin’ sense but I’m not here to bore the stuffing out of you… intentionally.

-Sam Darnold’s toe is doing just fine apparently. Asked how it’s progressing, Darnold replied, “Really good! He’s ready to go to market and I’m putting a shopping list together and everything!”

TO THE GAME!

Potato Skins/Vikes:

Peterson says he’s good to go despite having a Raggedy Andy ankle that features a regular and high sprain. You best get ready for Wendel BretFavre, I mean ‘Smallwood’ doing some quality relief work ’cause Thompson is out. On the Vikes side, Thielen is out so my pick for TD vulture goes to….. Olabisi Johnson, Mr. 7th Rounder out of Colorado State. Much has been made of Kirk Cousins’ recent excellent play over the last three weeks. Those in the know simply nod their heads, knowing he’ll crash back to earth soon because he’s Kirk Cousins. Yeah, it won’t happen tonight but it’s happening as surely as the sun rubs its ballsack on all those countries as it rises in the east.

Go forth and type!

I always, ALWAYS read that as “Furry Road”

PornHub search request: “furry road”

Senor Weaselo

Rule 34’s definitely going to have that.

Unsurprised

BALLS!

Fuck yeah

King Hippo

Maybe I will just change my FF team name to Soiled Gimp Collar

King Hippo

Imagine all the spit and pubic hair that comes FREE with your replacement pizza!

hippofant

This commercial always confuses me. It seems the people are entirely surprised by the pizza delivery. Does Domino’s just RANDOMLY choose a time to deliver you a free pizza replacement?

Redshirt

I imagine close to the same amount as your normal pizza.

Too bad we won’t get to hear/see Mister Winkles’ halftime talk.

The purple and white helmets with the purple and yellow uniforms is kinda triggering me.

COLOR SCHEME PLEASE.

Midway, based on the untold story.

Like, the version where the US loses? Because I’m pretty sure everyone knows how Midway ends.

King Hippo

the untold story of TRUE LOVE!

Spur

Cant wait to see Midway from the viewpoint of the transgender Inuit P-51 fighter pilot.

hippofant

The US Navy didn’t fly P-51s. They couldn’t do carrier takeoffs.

Spur

you think that will stop the marketing team?

no

Does anyone have any Pornhub search terms for me?

King Hippo

something with BLOOD, find us a new fetish!

Horatio Cornblower

Jesus fuck do not do that.

King Hippo

soiled gimp collar, then

ballsofsteelandfury

I’m not taking any more of Hippo’s suggestions. Fool me once, shame on me. Fool me twice, shame on you. Fool me three times, shoot me in the head because I don’t deserve to live.

King Hippo

hey, you ask me tp be a sick fuck, BY GOD I WILL DAE IT

ballsofsteelandfury

I should look up “shoulder fetish” just for you…

King Hippo

I never figured how to get good results

If anything needed to be turned into an hour long Netflix it was Mass Effect. Shame they stopped making them after the second one.

King Hippo

OF COURSE, Smallwood has nowhere to go.

/Price is Right losing horn

King Hippo

Perfect symmetry – my money league team is against Captain Dingleberry, but starting the Minny D/ST. In DFO-ball, I have Dingleberry, ALXMAC has the Vikes.

Horatio Cornblower

Who else is drunk and eating fried chicken?

King Hippo

pills and shame pizza!

Horatio Cornblower

We would also have accepted that.

blaxabbath

Nope.

Heading to Costco.

Horatio Cornblower

Hopefully for fried chicken and beer

Unsurprised

May as well get some waffles, too

hippofant

Headache and dark chocolate!

Horatio Cornblower

OK with the chocolate, saving the headache until tomorrow.

King Hippo

chocolate (especially dark) is high on my migraine list

hippofant

Hm shit, maybe that’s something I need to pay more attention to.

Red wine and weed.

Can’t deal with tannins, but appreciate where you’re coming from.

I can’t wait to cut that motherfucker

Demi Lovato, looking at her upper arm

King Hippo

maybe that should go on the Balls porn search list. Sexy cutting

Horatio Cornblower

No. No it shouldn’t.

No one needs to see that. Blood is not sexy.

Yeah, am gonna watch the Rockets/Bucks game. I dont want to miss when Harden and Russell fight over the ball

October is Joe Buck Month

jjfozz

I want Joe Buck hung on a meathook and devoured by honey badgers. Cause he is a piece of fuck.

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

There was a time when I would have agreed with you. But I’ve softened, and I no longer wish to see Joe Buck boiled in oil until his skin sloughed off. I’d just rather see him never broadcast a single second of a sporting event ever again.

Horatio Cornblower

He’s been pretty much unbearable during the based ball post-season, but his run on Brockmire makes up for a lot for me.

litre_cola

I listened to him on PMT this week and his self deprecating humoUr was great. I no longer hate him broadcasting football, I hate Troy way more, but he is a Cowboy so that is to be expected.

Horatio Cornblower

Aikman is fine as an announcer, but it’s only a matter of time before the CTE turns him into Pheel.

Agreed. Whoever convinced women that skin and bones are attractive needs to be dragged out into the street and shot.

litre_cola

No. Just no.

hippofant

Whatever is rare is attractive.

When food was scarce, reubenesque women were attractive.
Now that food is plenty but time is scarce, skinny women who can spend all their time working out but not working are attractive.

Feminine beauty standards are fucked.

jjfozz

Gimme curves, all day long

Redshirt

I just like healthy and normal.

Not skinny that I can play the xylophone on your bones.

Not so fat that your features blur together that I need them labeled to know what everything is.

And for God’s sake, no plastic surgery enough that makes you look like you have more plastic that Barbie and your skin looks like its about to fail.

Oh sure, we can’t say Washington’s name because its insensitive to Ingenious Persons, but the people the Minnesota team’s named after who went around Number 6’ing them gets a free pass!

My phone died today so I had to go to the apple store and get a new one. The time loss ended up costing me the oppotrunity to go jewlry shopping for the Mrs for our upcoming anniversary. Anyways — any tips for jewelry buying?

litre_cola

Haggle Brick Meathook style. Those prices are never what the sticker price is.

blaxabbath

Yeah — what is proper haggling here?

Brick Meathook

Offer them half the list price, let them talk you up to 75% max. If they say no then thank them and walk away. See what happens.

blaxabbath

Wow — that’s some serious markup. I feel like a sucker already!

jjfozz

Buy her a jet ski instead

Wait, I just saw a Skittles commercial showing a rastaman milking a giraffe, and skittles came out, and then he ate them, and then he laughed.

I mean, having 3, you’d figure one would at least be a drug dealer who slipped me some bonus pills and non-sequential, unmarked $20s. But noooooooooo

Mine aren’t old enough to sling drugs, but one of them better figure out how to make money real fast. Seeing as how they have Italian and Sicilian roots, I expect them to achieve great things.

I have let various fantasy prognosticators talk me into starting Darrell Henderson this week, solely because it’s Bungles’ run D.

Redshirt

Good call. Bengals are traveling half the world away and the Rams are going to want to win this thing for Whitworth. Local sports columnist predicted a 30-0 shutout loss.

Cousins is my bye week QB in DFO-ball, picked up solely for this matchup. He will start the Dingleberry-ing tonight, and they probably won’t throw a pass in the 2nd half.

Is the “trunk show” code for a male strip club?

Sound like something you should research…
