Yes, those lovable, cuddly Krauts are in full swing on FS1 and assorted sister channels. Dortmund/Wolfsburg and Borussia Unpronounceable/Aspirin FC highlight the 9:30 slate. Bayern (the side you’ve heard of) gets Eintracht Frankfurt at 12:30, and should be ok viewing. Except…the play has been choppy after the long, weird break. To put it mildly. It reminds one of roller derby without the skates.
But, hope springs eternal. And at least SOMETHING is fucking on, that isn’t golfer assholes or race car rednecks.
Back to the week’s theme, we honor Mark by watching Lesser Footy, even if he ain’t around to joshingly shit upon it. A question has arisen, though. There was a long-standing meme/joke about a Lesser Footy scoreline constituting “a tWBS” – based on his complaints about this always being the final tally. But hark, was that tally 1-nil or nil-nil?? LET THE PPLS VOTE!
/Hippo can nae figure out the “Insert Poll” plug-in, so is write-in time, y’all.
//Drink and Gamble, as tWBS would have wanted. But don’t “dance like nobody is watching” however much he would like such cliche advice.
///Yes, Pretend Machester City is still running rampant, as the Pretend Calendar turns to 2036.
////Also, this song kicks all the ass, and shits out said ass for breakfast:
I fell asleep on the couch with my dog while watching a KBO league game and the Dr. Mrs. turned the TV off! Ain’t right.
We’re watching the ponies again and in the 8th race at Gulf Stream the 10 horse was named Sir Seamus. I was too late on the bet.
How did it do?
Won wire to wire. I called it right before the post.
Moose’s Dead Or Alive tribute gifs always make me dizzy.
I’m seeing double! FOUR Connie Sellecas!
Found a funny:
The Bible is very vague as to how much Jesus could bench
And the Lord said, “Doth thou even lift?”
Jesus was a carpenter for ffs. I’d say he could bench at least 16 or 17, depending on how many sermon gigs he had booked that month.
Living room could use an upgrade.
Then a vibrating spooge-grade!
Spoogegate.
Ha
The conspiracy theorists needs to focus on something legitimate.
The Bayern game was pretty good. Lots of scoring…
I turned it off at the half. Oops
A not-tWBS, deffo. Good, not so sure.
Obviously not a flag code expert.
Oh I would like to know what this expert has to say
He probably has some cogent ideas about race relations.
And bacon-wrapped hush puppies, I bet he has some pretty strong (and well-founded) opinions about those as well.
Oh man, I never should have looked this recipe up…

Wanted to go for a walk today but in the last four days the weather has transitioned from 10 degrees Celsius with a stiff wind (“Phrasing!”-tWBS) to 31. That ain’t right.
We need more Jonathan Pearce… fucking up the meaning of armament.

Your newest New York Jet likes his milk low-fat and room temperature, the same way I like my women.

If I ever get my grant money back, I’m gonna create a clone-hybrid of Cutler and Joe Flacco; it will be the perfect temperment quarteredback!
That’s the QB equivalent of Abradolf Lincler?
Low Fat was my fave Kung-Fu action star of the 70’s! Shame about him succumbing to anorexia…

That took me a second but oh god.
El action is as mediocre as expected.
Life In Northern Ontario:
It’s finally warm weather time. Yay! What this means to me as a guy that has a 90 minute (total) commute on two separate highways? Well, because the blackflies are out full force in the forests, various animals wander on to the highway looking for relief. In the morning you can guess the size/type of the animal that was run over that night by the size of the bloodmarks on the road. Adult male mooses* make the largest ones and it’s not even close.
*hope I haven’t triggered any commenters, or one specifically
I just use a calming GIF.
I have several Moose photos hung up in my house from a local wildlife photographer:

As far as place names are concerned Golden, Colorado is my 2nd favorite place to be in. First place? Christy, Canyon.
It’s not raining there.
Golden Showers…… you see.
There was a sports bar that opened up near us that gave us like 20 potatoes worth of fries the time we ate there. I am going to miss that place because we cooked those leftover fries into breakfast stuff for days.
I find an air fryer is great for reheating fries.
That is also the the name of a bong.
There are Irish people dying because they don’t have enough potatoes! (and because no one taught them to fish, god they’re so stupid!)
“Agreed.”

Christ. Another one for Havertz.
Ryan Leaf has been arrested on a domestic battery charge.
So he’s doing great.
Please tell me he was conducting home invasions in the Philadelphia area and giving those fans a taste of their own medicine.
Nothing so noble, I’m afraid.

I look forward to the inevitable “Ryan Leaf Finally Putting His Life Back Together” article that pops up every three years or so.
Due to previous record they will be four to six now, even with good behavior.
I guess I should just be glad that he has somewhere to stay. Or…at least, did.
He’s working as an analyst for ESPN. Huh.
Well, he was…
Yeah now he’s more likely to be signed by the Cowboys
Moar like the potato skins now
Thank God society believes in endless second/tenth chances for white men.
Am pretty sure the lead announcer is a honky South African. His co-commentator is a German footy professional. Would be fun to hear them discuss issues of race and ethnicity on a halftime hot mic.
Wine on Friday = lots of terlet time on Sabado.
Wine is my lifeblood
I’m not suffering too much this morning (physically). Perhaps having a midnight homemade burrito featuring leftover sous vide tri tip and Popeye’s french fries is the magic bullet.
Nordic Hulk angry.
SMASH ALL OOF DA
Have a hundo on Dortmund and Haaland to score. COME ON GAMBLOR I WILL TAKE A 1-0 RESULT!
Good luck. What odds did you get on that? Took Haaland over Kai Havertz in DFS, and have already been kicked in the nuts by that decision.
1.91 for Borussia Dortmund and 2 to 1 for Norwegian Hulk
It has been 1 nil. Due to his sarcastic tone that “Ooooh a 1 nothing game I bet it was sooooo exciting”
What Litre said.
I agree with litre.
this
For me a “tWBS” will always be “two chicks at the same time in the bathroom at Camden Yards” I dont know bout you.
I refuse to believe that someone besides the other team scored at an Orioles game.
Well “two chicks at the same time…” means in this case that he bought them dinner, put their kids through vet school, bought the tickets for the O’s game($.50 each for box seats) and then saw them fuck each other. So the other team did score.
