NFL Noise:
- Despite nothing new to broadcast, Amazon has re-upped its broadcast deal with the NFL.
- They will continue to stream 11 Thursday-night games, with the added bonus of a late-season, Saturday exclusive game to broadcast.
- A league concession is that the game will also be broadcast over-the-air in both teams’ home market.
- They will continue to stream 11 Thursday-night games, with the added bonus of a late-season, Saturday exclusive game to broadcast.
- The Falcons have declined the fifth-year option on Takkarist McKinley, meaning he will become a free agent at the end of the 2020 season.
- A tail-off in production after two strong years meant the Falcons were ready to cut bait and try to draft their next big thing.
- Bashaud Breeland had a bad night Tuesday, waking up Wednesday facing a slew of misdemeanour charges.
- He was arrested & charged with resisting arrest, having alcohol in a motor vehicle with the seal broken, having an open container of beer or wine in a motor vehicle, possession of 28 grams or less of marijuana or 10 grams of hash, and driving without a license.
- According to ESPN, in searching Breeland’s car, the officer found a blunt weighing 1.3 grams, other marijuana weighing about 3.2 grams, two open bottles of Corona beer and an open bottle of Patron.
- Plus, they had to draw a taser & then a gun to get him to stop trying to leave the scene.

Finally, people aren’t done trying to hasten the Packers-Rodgers divorce.
- The talking armpits at nfl.com come down Peter King (50/50) on the whole affair.
- Some say it’s smart, like they tried with Rodgers under Favre, and more recently with Alex Smith mentoring both Colin Kaepernick & Patrick Mahomes.
- The others say that it’s too long a mentor period, and guarantees one of the two is done sooner than expected in Green Bay.
Olivia MunnBrett Favre speculates that Rodgers will eventually play somewhere else.- It’s not Aaron’s job to mentor Jordan Love,” Favre said. “I guarantee you [the Love pick] got the gears going in Aaron’s mind,” Favre said.
Today’s good internet dog is Bill Belichick’s dog Nike (of course. #branding). At least he was much better to look at draft night than Grumblelord himself.

He is a 2.5 year-old Alaskan Klee Kai dog, and the trick was having treats beside the computer & waiting for Belichick to give him the signal to go. So, just like Brady.

I have no desire to do any work this week
Damn, I love that stuff. Nothing gets it going like a few bottles of Aalborg.
Deceptively cool.
I had to look it up again, then realized I had seen it on various travel shows. Like many things I really enjoyed it through the TV.
I desire no week to work any do, this, um… have.
Some people love their work.
I like a company name that tells you exactly what they do.
Honesty with the client.

Having landed on my chin in a painfully similar manner, that is fucking hilarious.
Headline news;
“DFO COMMENTERS JOIN ANTI-LOCK-DOWN PROTESTS TO STOP MOOSE FROM POSTING HEAVY VOLUME OF WEIRD BULLSHIT WELL INTO THE WEE HOURS.”
Several people wear HAZMAT suites with apparently sarcastic and obscure phrases written on them joined pro-Trump protesters. It seems they are protesting something completely different however…… blah, blah, blah….

I thought you were going to go with the “How’d she get on the dollar bill? Not even American!” joke.
Well, I will from now on.
I’m sure Elon approves, though he will probably want some kickback.

Definitely not the name of the fort the Mrs. and I built

I understand they just plain stole Hendrix’s Electric Ladyland album and re-packaged it as shown. Hendrix was rumoUred, after all, to have a Long Fat Wang himself.
If we have learned anything from stereotypes, and we have because they are central to the US educational system, none of these guys are well equipped.
Found a funny:
boss: [slides paper across table] this is the starting salary for the promotion
me: [scoffs] do you have any idea how much i make a day in animal crossing
The twist is that it’s a RealDoll.
Two RealDolls, in fact.

My dad bore a striking, almost eerie resemblance to the Nick Adams of that era. They were near-contemporaries, difference being that my dad is still alive at 83 and Adams died of an OD at age 36.

I thought that was Dennis the menace
Today marks 6 weeks of isolation. Walking 5 miles a day, no meat, diary or flour. Eating fresh vegetables and home cooked meals every day. The change has been fantastic! Zero alcohol. A healthy, gluten-free, caffeine-free diet and a 1-hour home workout every day. Lost 20 pounds and gained muscle mass.
I have no idea who wrote this, but I am so proud of them that I decided to copy and paste.
Ha ha ha! That’s good!
I know a man who gave up smoking, drinking, sex, and rich food. He was healthy right up to the day he killed himself
That reminds me. I need to go have a drink, a smoke and eat some lasagna. The sex…meh.

I just had a thought that it would be so funny if those were the fat twins from the Guinness book
I’m in the store, and women with masks, etc. “Oh, ‘n’ she HAWT! Oh, she gots it goin'” and not mask; “That skank be havin’ all kinds of STD ‘n’ shit!!”
Also, due to isolation and my general lack of awareness I MAY have said this out-loud a couple of times.
Ohio Governor: “Retain Stores can open on May 12th, but everyone must wear a mask.”
Vocal Idiot Minority: “We don’t wanna wear a mask!”
Ohio Governor: “Like I said, people can choose to wear a mask or not, but we strong recommend they wear a mask.”

Four smiths are tasked with forging signature blades from scrap metal shavings. After two intense rounds, the remaining smiths head home to recreate the Nimcha, a sword traditionally made from recycled blades.
Ultimately, those smiths ended up making 4 pretty damn good albums instead.

this is a great pull but I’m obligated to post the long version. It’s fucking brillliant
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uIldaw6QgzA
The long version is absolutely the best. I get pissed when this song pops up on Sirius First Wave and it’s the short version.
How pissed?
EXTREMELY!
As far as I’m concerned the short version doesn’t exist.
It is just too bad Morrissey is such a complete knobend. I saw Jonny Marr a few years back and he played a bunch of Smiths tunes. He sung them better than Mo!
Never heard “knob-end.” Bell-end, yes, knob-end no. That works.
In “Maybe You’re Broken, Youtube Algorithm” news, after I watch any woman playing the guitar (Poison Ivy, Tina Weymouth, Bonnie Rait, a few others) my first recommended suggestion is a SNL skit about Hobbits.

So I finally got off the VPN this afternoon and was able to read your 70s Bond post (being “at work” means being on Air Force VPN, which firewalls DFO). Over the last week of looking forward to it, I figured I would not have much to add. I entered puberty right after Diamonds Are Forever, and was a lot more interested in getting a stinky finger etc (probably a legacy of my youthful Bond fandom, I could argue) than being the psychopathic fan-child I was in the 1960s. But your post did dredge up a lot of memories that I had not necessarily suppressed but certainly forgotten. Hopefully I will be able to organize those thoughts into a comprehensible comment over the next couple of days. Loved your post, regardless.
That would be awesome!

“Is he a pirate?”
possession of 28 grams or less of marijuana or 10 grams of hash
Inquiring minds want to know, was it weed or was it hash?
Edit: Never mind, read the rest. God I get so ahead of myself sometimes.
US prosecutors don’t care, as long as they can jail someone of a bit darker skin color, they are fine with it.
Just responded to tWBS’s previous post about compassion for those less fortunate. Reposting here because I really liked his post.
Multiply this story by 30+ million and you gotta know it’s going to eventually tear apart this country’s social fabric. But compassion like you’ve shown is inspirational. As a sixty year old, I get a lot of calls and texts from my younger friends, acquaintances, and colleagues asking how I’m doing and can they do anything for me. I have been asking them to direct their concern to other folks who are doing less well than I; I at least have a government job, and will continue to get paid at least until we go full Mad Max world.
