Fuck off with the hangovers and all other crap associated with NYE spent with real people. As long as none of my kids get arrested (actually fuck it, they can rot if they do), I shall be watching some Premiership all morning!
Also, this will be the Decade of Kruger (pictured above). He is DONE with all our humanity bullshit.
Chelsea visit Brighton to start 2020 (7:30, NBCSN). I really hate Tory Cunt Frank Lampard and his stupid face. Betcha the Trashbirds at least take an early lead on those fuckers. Spurs are away to So’ton next (10:00, NBCSN), with better options on NBC Gold (actually, you have alternate viewing options in the first 3 windows) – especially Wolves at Moose Hornets (my sleeper pick for a fun watch). Saints are going to go down to the Championship, and it will be hilarious.
Speaking of, most of the lower division sides (UK only) will play during the 3p UK time window, per tradition. Don’t forget to HAIL GAMBLOR, fuckadoos.
Don Carlo Ancelotti leads the mighty Toffees into the Etihad (12:30, NBCSN), which has to feel like a gloomy place now. No hopes of a repeat domestic title. Pep looks old and tired. The back line is wretched. It amazes me to be in a – albeit likely very much misplaced – mindset where I can see taking some points from this. Hold onto your arses, Europa League, here come Everton!
Finally, you get a real cracker of a match to end the festivities – shit hot Man United at the opposite of that Arsenal (3:00, NBCSN). Mikel Arteta needs to show a little steel in his spine here, or people will start getting even more agitated. A bottom half finish really is possible, which would represent quite the low point for the Gooners. Anyway, expect the cornered animal to at least fight.
There are also 2 early afternoon JV exhibitions, which I imagine you are almost as sick of as I am (only almost b/c y’all probably ain’t watching as much of ’em):
Michigan (+7.5) v. Alabama (Main Event Hitler Mouse Bowl, Orlando, FL – 1:00, ABC)
I always liked when Steve Spurrier would mock Phil Fulmer – you can’t spell “Citrus Bowl” without “UT!” One would think Roll Damn Tide would be less interested in being here, but I just don’t see a lot of talent on the Meeeechigan sideline (playing or coaching). The again, I’m wrong quite often.
Minnesota (+7) v. Auburn (MRSA Bowl, Tampa, FL – 1:00, ESPN)
Will there be deep enough swamp channels to Row Teh Boat? I really don’t know, but I sure expect the Gophers to show up. War Damn Eagle is a weird team, and I never know what to expect from them.

Balls’ Liga MX Minuto and New Year’s Message
A few days ago, Monterrey won the Liga MX Apertura championship as the #8 seed in La Liguilla. This was awesome and showed how strong that team is.
This is the same team that not only scored against Liverpool in the Club World Cup but played them the toughest. Only a stoppage time goal let them go through.
The Clausura tournament begins on January 10, so they’ll get a bit of a break before they’re back at it. La Liga starts playing again this weekend.
Others have mentioned it before, but I’ll reiterate that I wish nothing but the best for all you strange and goofy bastards. We are a weird and eclectic bunch here, but there are a lot of funny and caring people here too and that’s what I love about this place.
Lastly, Brick, you were not banned although your comment was edited without your knowledge. Just know that this was hotly discussed in the back room and I personally feel the situation could have been handled better through better communication. Hopefully, if something similar happens in the future, whether it’s you or someone else, it will be handled differently.
Now post some airplane engines or shoelaces, dammit!
Happy New Year, everyone!

By the way, spot the odd one out (and guess which military powerhouse shat it out):
“Spot the odd one?” [points at bk109]
I resent that.
[holds Moose close, strokes his hair] “Hey, no matter what you do-you’ll always be weird to me.”
I resent the truthful implication that was truthful … I mean … GRRRRRRRRRRR XD
Seriously, tho… Gotta love the Frenchies – everyone else built protected and survivable tank destroyers… they? Stick a recoilless rifle on a Vespa and call it a day 😀
(Though if we’re being a bit most strict and just limit the others’ machines to shit for their air assault units) the equivalents are more like the Sheridan
and the BMD/Su100 … Still not fucking Vespas with bolt-on M75’s 😀
If the scooter was US it would have cost ~$billions.
As it was the Sheridan was an implication of the faulty contracting and development process.
But at least it looked the part, lol
Plus when you’re working against a firm weight limit, sacrifices must be made (as any poor student that has ever flown Ryanair knows :D)
Aubie/Minny is interesting so far because the former has the edge on talent big-time but they’re being out-schemed/coached. Very watchable.
What the hell is VRBO? Is that one of those private vacays that gives you carbon monoxide poisoning?
She looks like she woke up with a roomba in her twat
Who among us?
Hot Roomba Butt Action!!
You know what today needs? Coconut water.
Nah, what you need is some
It’s what plants need.

‘MURRICA, BISH!
‘olla from shitty London lads,lassess and non-binary transhuman horsekin…
You are in London? Damn.
Only until the end of the Arsenal game and the drive back to the airport… Unless we get shitfaced, then it’s hotel and fly-out first thing tomorrow morning
I always like going full museum tourist when in London. Not many fellow travelers are down with that.
Ah, for museum trips it’s definitely like that (to the tune of going full japanese tourist with a DSLR and spare lenses) . Not on the docket for today tho. Just watch wifey’s team arse-blast mine for 90 minutes, then back home 😀 … I do plan on taking everyone to Le Bourget on Saturday (with a sleepover in Paris) and then off to Saumur for a couple of days. First to see the Musée des Blindés and then just to bike around the Loire Valley for a bit (weather permitting)
Have not been to France. Next time hopefully.
thinking you get a point today, but Arteta needs to show us something. What ye say?
No chance in hell, lol. We’ve got primo seats to watch the game with the missus… and Arsenal ALWAYS choose to make me cry on such events 😀
[stops fucking the corpse of a Diplodocus for a moment] “Hey! What about us?”

Uh… I assumed y’all had something better to do tonight,uhhh… I stand corrected? XD
Stop it with ur dam bouk lirnin’ bullsheet.
Barely able to restrain myself for giving you a downvote for reminding me that the next season is so far a-bloody-way… What you did is positively

“Holy FUCK!”
Back when Sillycuse was in the Big East and March Madness came around I would never cheer for Georgetown or UCONN but I was all in for teams like Providence, Boston College or Seton Hall. Does it work that way for you fans of NC/Ohio State and others?
oh, absolutely. I was even happy for Tony Bennett last year. Good dude.
Just not Duke or U*NC (or Clem subbed for Duke in footed ball). I have a sliding scale of lesser grudges against some ACC sides, but nothing uber-serious
Exhibition mismatches are mismatches.
That is one of may favorite Pornhub searches.

The very first thing I thunked when I heard the initial report was that the Pats out-sourced the filming of other teams. And yes, my tinfoil suit makes me look slim.
*out-sourced the filming of other teams to an independent contractor.
that galdurn SECCCCCCC speed. PAWWWWWLLLLLL
Alright! Go Alabama! Roll Tide!
Cheer for Minny.
My notebook tells me I came up short of my goal to read 35 books in ’19. I did get to 27 though. Came up short in the weight loss goal thingy as well-set as a goal 25 pounds and got to 15 and have regressed about five over the last week and a half. Time to get back on the elliptical.
Great work; I’m a bit addicted to audio-books. It’s okay since you are Canadian. We certainly don’t want ‘mericans being literate.
*Unless it is approved books from the Bill O’reilly book club.
I did lots of audio books before I got a new vehicle in ’16 with free satellite radio. Do you have a long-ish commute or is that how you relax at home?
Relax at home; the commute is short enough so I drive to work and then sit in the car if not careful. When Sirius runs out they will REALLY try to get you back.
I’ll watch the movie when it comes out, okay?
The Bill O’reilly Lego Movie?
Killing Lord Business
There’s your Bump, Fronk! 3 in the first.
How does they werk?
Let’s Go UMINNY!
Auburn pickerception. The bastards.
Found a funny:
Roaring 20s:
– Already happened 100 years ago
– Sounds exhausting
– Dinosaurs roar and they’re scary
Napping 20s:
– Relaxing
– Naps are a form of self-care
– A napping dinosaur is a dinosnore and that’s just adorable
Cartoons?
Shiny Happy New Year to all of you lovely people! May the Force be with us all, and please let the Trumpsterfire get what’s coming to him
(An excruciating, preferably fiery death, in Groundhog Day mode). I’m not asking for much, just a little fucking karma!
Man City is so, so, off compared to last year. What happened?
Back line is a problem, plus I think fatigue/age may be setting in.
VAR = bae <3
VAR 2 – 0 EPL
Pretty sure City will have 2 by the break anyway, but the reprieve is nice.
Not that he was ever fast, but The Broom looks kinda slow and plodding out there.
Let’s fucking go Hammers!!!
All right. Fuck it. I’ll do another year.
Yeah, I also signed up, whether I make it or not is a different question.
I’d like to live long enough to vote against the fascist, but if he’s gonna win again, then JEEBUS JUST TAKE ME NOW.
/ok, after the playoffs end
Might as well have the P*ts win the Superb Owl in a stadium flooded with sea water.
Flacco starts week one.
Adam Sandler wins an Oscar.
The rich get richer.
*This will happen regardless.
That Adam Sandler was just a bridge too far!!
Truly THE darkest timeline.
Ladies and Gentleman: We got him.
Shucks… Chelsea got a 1-1 draw against the seagulls.
Oh well.

Hipster reputation aside, Death Cab really are incredibly damned good. LOVE IT.
Moyes is really butthurt Everton didn’t take him back. Hopefully, that anger turns into safety for Fronk!
Oh, I’m sure we’re perfectly safe.
I resolve this year to prove to those around me that I love them, despite all my words and actions.
/borrowed
Adama Traoré can dribble past people at will, but what’s the point if he only dribbles to the corner to throw a cross into the box? Don’t teams know that’s not a very efficient way to score?
Hi all
Hi friend
HFK (Harry Fuckface Kane) offside on the equalizer, and has done his hamstring
Yeah, real shame, that.
Happy New Year, cretins!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7ymeuOz0hZU
There’s no stopping the cretins from hopping!
Many politicians are too old to hop.
Who’s watching the Rose Parade?
old ladies? 😀
When they started it off with what seemed like a bad superb owl halftime show, I turned it off.
I’ve never been much of a “why don’t they just learn English” person (as an adult) until this morning, when I first started trying to learn Korean on Duolingo. It’s taken me like twenty minutes to “learn” six letters which I’ll have forgotten by the time I’ve finished breakfast.

I hate it but I love the Championship.
I just heard old man Wayne Rooney is there now
Did 100% of the work on my brother’s fantasy football team (including the draft) and just found out all the prize money already went up his nose. Fuck it. Had a ball.
Go change the team name to Booger Sugar!

I guess Diamond & Silk’s invitations to the NYE party at Sea-On-Lake got lost in the mail, then?

West Ham seem desperate enough to wager on this afternoon? I’m just doing the daily fantasy nonsense
#NewManagerBump!
We’re in the 18 hole. At some point we have to wake up.
Oooh a Middle Eastern feed for teh Fulham game.
Mighty Whitey, inshallah!
Fuck it I paid the 5 quid to the club.
yer Maple-quid shall help buy a new centre half, surely!
Merry New Year, everybody! After our stunning victories in the War on Christmas and the War on Thanksgiving (which you oblivious fools didn’t even know was going on!) we’ve decided to up the ante and declare War on an entire year! Soros is funding the whole thing! Muahahahahahahaha!
How about a shout-out to Drugs? They win every damn year despite all the resources used against them. Cagey lot, those guys.
They’re just so damned charismatic.
OH YEAH!!!!!
/wakes up and burps
//yawns
How the fuck you doing, boyz? Happy New Year.

Fulham tackles Reading today.
/they were schooled at the academy so it is doubtful most of them can actually read.
I wouldn’t be surprised if Pulisic amassed .75 xG in his hour of work today
Lot of folks ain’t got their tips in.
mines just wrong (per usual)
Why can’t these assholes play a regular schedule? Second time in a week that I woke up to find out games were already being played.
I think I got mine in but there was definitely a day after Christmas fuck up in there.
Been a clinical last 20′ or so from Brighton.
Always had a soft spot for them, cool stadium, cool kit, nice town to party.
GIT THAT POINT, Trashbirds!!
MERRY NEW YEAR!!!! HA HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!
/ come on Chelski
No.
I’m ok with Brighton jisming in their hair! 😀
Having these NYE bowl games after the playoff games is like trying to eat your salad after the steak. Not Interested.
BHA’s Dan Burn is the tallest left back in EPL history at 6’7″
I love wild physical specimens like this. The best player I ever drafted in Madden was a 6’7″ WR with 97 speed and 96 acceleration. It was hilarious throwing goal-line fades to him against 5’10” CBs. Dude averaged 2,000 yards and 24 TDs a season
You rang?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ju9VRVfZUPc
[whispers] He played basketball
Wow I can’t believe I’d never heard of this guy before! I mean I’d heard of him but I didn’t know the dude was 6’8″ that’s awesome
He was no Greg Jennings

Ex- Fulham. We would like him back thanks.
Dave Gettleman (nearly 70 yr. old GM of the Giants) announced yesterday that four analytics people were hired. He called them ‘computer folks’. I’m sure he’ll make great use of them.
He’s going to be pretty disappointed to find out “computers” doesn’t mean “lithe young women doing computations and unable to reject his advances” like it did in the 40s.
Is he ever going to be upset when he goes on to twitter and sees… uh, nevermind…
Whoa, way too fucking early for this shit
I am taking the header image as a personal threat! Are you challenging me????
Just kidding I love both kinds of animals! Here’s a picture of my own pet. Her name is Stormy. A homeless person gave her to my roommates 13 years ago, but I was the only person in that house responsible enough for a pet so I took her, and she’s been the best cat possible ever since.
