Okay, if you’ve been with us since the start we’ll look the other way if you deem it necessary to take a nap. You just don’t have the staying power anymore. Hey, we all get older!
TO THE GAMES!
Lions/Raiders:
Chubby McGutbuster has been on fire recently as Detroit’s run game has gone in the shitter. One of the keys to his success is that he’s willing to wing it downfield. He leads all qb’s in percentage of total throws downfield at 20. Expect Waller to go nuts today because the Lions are down to three safeties, one of which is an UDFA. That’s no good. Actually, send in all your fantasy troops for this one. The number of defensive stops here can likely be counted on one hand.
Bucs/Seahawks:
I think we’ve got another high-scoring affair here as well. Although these run D’s are good, the secondaries are another matter altogether. You probably don’t want to fade Chris Carson here but maybe?… Nah, don’t do that, he’ll catch some out of the backfield and most likely get some goal-line action. He won’t be able to dine out on his yards per carry number after the game though.
Browns/Broncos:
Brandon Allen-step right up. It’s your time to shine! Rb Lindsay’s status was in doubt earlier in the week but he should be ready to go. Will we see an OBJ tantrum today? He was blanketed by the Pats D last week and he now gets shadow coverage from Chris Harris Jr.
Packers/Chargers:
Melvin Gordon has played like garbage since his return-he’s the 33rd ranked rb in fantasy. Yikes! There’s plenty of time to move up but when does it happen? Perhaps today vs. a Packers run D that gives up the 2nd-most ypc in the league?
You know what to do.
Let’s be honest: Jim Tomsula looks uptown next to Freddie Kitchens. I’ve passed car sleepers with a brighter complexion.
He looks like a wad of cookie dough that’s been rolled in cat hair.
What a world, we’ll get like the whole Q4 of Donks/#ThePauls
I hope Romo takes a swing at Rodgers. They are on the sideline. Nantz could do a play by play
You want him to make a pass? Dunno if Middle Murrica would stand for that.
Let’s go Le Charges! Beat that ass!
I am on board with this, especially because I work with a couple of Packers owners and I can give them shit tomorrow.
In fact, I’ve already texted a couple of them to rub their noses in it.
Eldest brother is from San Diego and he moved here to LA before the Chargers did so he’s allowed to keep his fandom organically.
It’s suddenly festive in the right house. Certainly takes a bit of the sting off from the early games.
Let’s drink more things!
Is it only the 4th quarter of the afternoon games? I feel like I’ve been watching football today for a week.
I spent half the day out tooling around in my convertible and drinking at a friend’s house, and nevertheless feel exactly the same way.
My football team is still and eternally trash WOO!
So, went and drank home made liquor at my bud’s house for the early afternoon games. When we start living in the Mad Max world that the president clearly wants for us, I think I will go live at his ranch. Solar powered well and house, knows how to make whiskey, wine, and tequila, lots of guns. What could go wrong? All I need to do is get him to start growing marihoochie, he’s a real Renaissance man so will probably do very well at that too..
75 degrees, not a cloud in the sky, Corvette top-down driving out in the Hill Country took up the rest of the afternoon. Get home to find LAC beating the Packers. It’s been a very good day, starting with the Texans win in London, Clots loss to Steelers to keep HOU in AFC South first place (though I hate to see PIT win), and hopefully the climax will be a P*ts victory tonight.
If your buddy needs a cook at his compound where can I apply?
It’s curling season, baby! South Korea and Japan battling on the Olympic channel.
Dunstan turned in to a rural Saskatchewan farmer so quickly I hardly noticed.
Well, I used to be a farmer, and I earned a living fine,
I owned a little stretch of land along the CP line…

Raiders with some trickeration!

Gotta delete everything after the ? and match the file extension with the format
You hate to see it
I hate karaoke. I hate being anywhere near it.
However . . .
I’m in a Montreal bar watching GB/LAC and in the other room there’s karaoke. This is a tavern in a real working-class port neighborhood and a lot of these people are not bilingual. They’re singing classic country music songs in phonetic or heavily accented English and it’s amazing.
Reminds me of the time I heard a bar band in Thailand covering Bryan Adams songs.
Michael Schenker Group took over the stage at some bar in Pattaya Beach during a liberty call I had back in ’83. I think he (MS) told us in a heavy German accent that they were playing a couple shows up in Bangkok (most appropriately named city on the fucking planet) and came down to party at the beach. Nice free show for us squids.
Had to look them up. Former Scorpions guitarist — nice.
Also, UFO.
Gase does have 24 more games to catch up to Rich Kotite
I am planning to go to their show in March in Phoenix which definitely isn’t a cash grab.

You know what will make the day better?
Nachos!
And more beer.
Donks WOO!!!! We can has pride??
Went out for ice cream. Returned with beer only. God bless critical thinking
It was the right decision.
So let’s be clear. In the 40s, the thought of a beer milkshake could warrant police activity. Later in the chapter, Doc goes ahead and takes the plunge and discovers what a beer milkshake tastes like:
I read this Steinbeck passage as a teenager. I wonder if it had anything to do with my proclivity for beer margaritas.
Cleveland is an absolute joke. Nice place to visit though.
Well, this clinches the NFL West for the Fightin’ Tomsulas!
Noah Fant…not fucking up?????
Fat Stafford is all bad again
Well, his internal clock is telling him that its time to hibernate
Damn it! My FF team is all kinds of underperforming this week!
Been up for eighteen hours now. Must sleep. Good Night.
Well that fucking sucked. Play the Vikings set a franchise record. And so it goes.
Who is Aaron Rodgers “banging” these days?
Stephanie, from State Farm.
Well, judging by the commercials, he’s hanging around Patrick Mahomes and that State Farm agent a lot. And he and the agent-agent seem to have a Dom/sub thing going on.
Danica Patrick, bitch, agent boy just watches in the corner.

Should be someone in the Royal Family to satisfy his love of family drama

Ugh. My opinion of someone drops 50% if I see them wearing Birkenstocks.
Thankfully, I have switched over from the Birkys to Merrell sandals.
is fucking Jacobs ded again??
Oh Christ, again?
he ain’t play that drive, at least
I switched off Team MRSA to Clippers du Merde in Loser Pool. It’s between two of us for 2nd place.
/yes, my life is even sadder than it sounds
But… but… I am already in the sky! How is the delay from Dish so bad??
Why is every Young Sheldon commercial about some little girl and never even shows Sheldon?
Because the main character is completely unlikeable? It’s a bold strategy that hasn’t been attempted since The Single Guy.
Oh shit, unless you consider what’s-his-name to be the main character on How I Met Your Mother.
There was exactly one likeable character on that whole show.
Rachel Bilson’s character was also likeable, because Rachel Bilson is great. (Someone post that gif of her dancing.)
I only saw a couple of episodes, but I thought Cobie and Alyson’s characters were ok. Maybe just because I lust after both of them. And Barney seemed like a “limited doses” character.
Everybody’s characters got irreversibly more and more awful as the show went on. That show sucked me in S1, and I ended up watching it through to the end, largely regretting it the entire way.
the paedos have spoken, and they want GIRLS!

Wait – is Romo doing the GB/LAC game? I think I just heard some commentary that was actually of value to me as a viewer.
Romo is the only thing saving the NFL. He’s refreshing.
CBS gave me LAC/GB for this tilt.
Now why would a 3-5 team vs a 7-1 team seem like the best programming available here?
Your other options are 3-3-1 vs 3-4, 2-5 vs 6-2, and 2-5 vs 2-5. Soooooooo
2-5 vs 2-5 ANYDAY
Browns vs Flacco-less Broncos?
(Also the Broncos are 2-6, sorry.)
There should be a Jets/Fins style game nationally every week.
Jets-Fins was way more entertaining than Browns-Broncos is likely to be. The Jets and Fins are all-around bad. You never know when incompetence will strike. Are the Jets going to snap the ball into their own endzone for a safety? Will the Dolphins give up a 60 yard touchdown on the last play of the half? WHO KNOWS.
The Browns and Broncos are just bad on offense. It’s just going to be a punt-fest.
First Bucs TD – shit ass roughing call.
Second Bucs TD – shit ass deflection.
I await the majesty of their third TD.
Winston will force it in without the other team’s consent.
What a grab by Sutton
Courtland Sutton be good.
I really wanted the Cowboys to take him.
let us have ONE good footballist!!
Woof. What a catch
no celebratory ciggy today
Don’t Pay The PerrimanDOWN!!
What went scorched earth in the middle of the Donks field?
All their Super Bowl hopes went up in flames with Joe Flacco’s neck injury.
Delusion is a hell of a drug
Let me get this straight: the Dolphins did not lose.
They did not tie.
They were not on a bye week.
The game was not cancelled due to natural disaster.
The Dolphins…. one? Whon? Woan? Doesn’t sound right.
The front office isn’t happy about it, either.
The Rosen Blessing
You know, Rivers just hasn’t been as funny in recent years as he used to be. I can’t even remember the last glorious Riversface or the last time he threw a massive shitfest on the sidelines at his teammates.
It’s like he doesn’t have it in him any more to get inexplicably irrationally angry, just resigned. It’s sad.
I imagine he still calls his heretical teammates “Cockwallet” when they miss an assignment.
Yeah, but when was the last time you actually feared that Rivers might stab Austin Ekeler for missing a pass pro pickup? It’s just not the same.
So many daughters; so little return
He isn’t HOF material, but if he does get voted in, I’d like to see his bust being him screaming with that whiny face.
Yup. And Eli Manning’s patented dumb look. They should have a special section for all the fugly whiny-ass tittie babies!
I Call these New York Jets the A-10 Warthog because nothing busts a tank like them
I may not be as drunk as Fozz reviewing movies, but I am having as much fun at the Seahawks game.
Nice. Live Action BOTG?
Every Baker Mayfield commercial sweetens Pauls’ Ls.
Glad Redzone cut to that Donks Incompletion there.
Donks 3 and out, knock me down with a feather.
So the Bengals are teh worst now?
Clearly.
They might have the worst record, but the Dolphins had to play the Jets twice, so I think the Dolphins might still be worse.
We’ll find out for certain in 3 weeks.
I think Cincy would beat the Falcons right now. And maybe the Jest.
I’m pretty sure that at least five high school teams would beat the Jets right now.
Personal foul, roughing the rapist
That was a lame roughing. If you are going to rough rapey, get your money’s worth.
“15 yards, Thx!”
PRAISE BE TO SHA’NKLOR!
good use of apostrophe to the left
Which thread do I use to complain about the cocktease that is the Bears’ inevitable failed comeback attempt?
Feel free, to vent here. You are in the trust tree.
A thong would have been better than that ending.
Vent away.
A cocktease with Trubisky? That’s an “I’m horny, hiv+”.
I started with the Houston Jaxoff, Switched to Spurs-Blues, Now KC v. Min/Ind v. Pit. I’m in it to win it bitches.
