The Week in DFO
Here are the things I read in DFO this week that reminded me how much I love this site:

I literally just spent four minutes considering the logistical considerations.
Collinsworth: I got this.
monty this seems strange to me

Apparently Aikman and Buck criticized the opening flyover for being a waste of gas and too expensive, not knowing, or not caring, that their mics were not.

In related news, her husband came out as “dead.”

Her husband came out of a tiger’s digestive system.

I thought her predilection for pussy was already established.

Bradshaw, calling his own plays: “Franco, I’m probably gonna give it to you. Swannie, you and Stallworth go long, in case I change my mind. And shit, if this don’t work, the defense’ll just get us the ball back and we’ll something else!”

/wife and I are living between two different places right now
//she accidentally takes the keys to my vehicle as well as her own
Her: “I fucked up. I’ve got your keys. What time do you leave for work?”
Me: “When you get here and give me my fucking keys. Duh.”

Jones: “Are you ready to be my starting quarterback?”
Dalton: “Yes.”
Jones: “Will you give your body for my team?”
Dalton: “Yes.”
Jones: “Will you give your heart for my team?”
Dalton: “Yes.”
Jones: “Will you give your soul for my team?”
Dalton: “My what?”

/Life in a Northern Town
Turns out that the plumber’s sister drives the school bus that my son takes to school, his brother-in-law worked as a sales rep at my business, his cousin has been with us for almost 30 years in the office and he molested my nephew at a youth camp.

Do not liveblog a murder.
You just can’t buy that kind of legal advice, y’know.

Is that why we only liveblog abortions and curbstompings?

Did they just say the backup QB is James Madison?
Dunstan
I’m trying to figure out a way to mock him fucking up so badly the British burned down the White House and Capitol.
Unsurprised
Ah, his college was named James Madison. No problem.
“I haven’t seen a James Madison product get wrecked like that since the last Federalist Society convention!”

found a funny:
British show contestants are like “Graham loves to spend time in his garden, tending to his lilacs” and American show contestants are like “Mark was dead in a ditch once for 40 minutes”

Related, earlier: My wife comes into the room and starts tormenting the dog and cat. I tell her that I’m trying to follow my team and to pipe down. She looks at me and says “Oh sorry, I don’t really follow baseball” and then smirks at me and THAT people, is why I married her.

That was the most pathetic goal-line sequence that somehow resulted in a touchdown I’ve ever seen.
And I’m a Bears fan.
Col. Duke LaCross
I’d say something as a Jets fan but you said “resulted in a touchdown.” And “goal-line.”

I saw that live and thought she was being a bit more comforting . . . more like “Ay Papi, your team sucks balls but that’s OK because so do I”

Not sure who’s watching the World Series, but that last play, a smashed line drive to the 3B, reminded me of my most terrifying moment in Little League.
The umpires hadn’t showed up, a not exactly rare occurrence, so I was calling balls and strikes from behind the mound. One of our kids, who could absolutely lace the ball, gets into a line drive and sends it right at the 3B, who is 60′ away and, as I notice when turning to follow the path of the ball, paying no goddamn attention whatsoever.
The ball hit the brim of his cap, folding it over and breaking most of the ball’s momentum before hitting the kid in the forehead. He was left with a bruise, but if that brim had been a just a little up or down he might’ve been dead.
Once we knew he was OK I had the hitter autograph a ball and send it over to him.

There once was a man named Joe Buck
When Fozz heard him he always yelled fuck
So he located Joe’s hovel
Beat him to death with a shovel
And now Fozz lives in his truck

I love this picture because it looks like this girl is giving herself a pep talk before heading out.
“Chloe, we are going to go to the beach. We are going to lay out for a sensible amount of time, 12-15 minutes a side, and then we are going to cover-up. We will go for a dip only after waiting 45 minutes after eating our lunch and before, I said before, drinking anything alcoholic. You know why. We are not going to the Salty Spitoon under any circumstances. We are not letting Lisa drive home for any reason, and we are not letting Lisa out of our sight for many reasons. If we go to a bar, (again, not the Salty Spitoon), you will have 1-2 drinks, you will consume food with them and for God’s sake you will not end the night on the top of the bar screaming ‘I’ll outfuck any broad in the house!!!’-deep breath-OK, we got this. Let’s go to the beach.”

We’re renovating our home in preparation to sell it and I had a hard time yesterday. I had to take two old toilets to their ‘Forever Home”. I didn’t feel good about it until I saw them lying next to their new friends, a mangled dishwasher and a pile of rotted-out baseboards. They all seemed happy and that’s the most important thing.

Dare I ask about the hobo sitch at the dump?
Litre_cola
It’s harder and harder coming up with scenarios and that one crossed my mind.
scotchnaut
What about a hobo plumber or pizza delivery and things get… out of hand.
herodotus450
Oh my sweet, naive herodotus-how do I get away with the crime if I have them come over to my residence? I mean, these stories have to be plausible.
scotchnaut
“(pats newly installed toilet) This baby could flush a dismembered corpse it’s so powerful!”
“Really…”
herodotus450
“And with each toilet purchased we throw in a free drum of hydrofluoric acid!”
“I mean, it would be a crime not to buy a few of these, right honey?” [talking to sock on hand]

Thank you to everyone one for providing quality laughs and gifs/pics to look at. Have a good week, everyone!
I will never not laugh at the Dimes win probability chart. That is an instant classic.
Jesus, you can really tell I was on vacation last week and didn’t go anywhere, can’t you?
I am once again asking people to stop pumping money into conservative media projects
Brandy Jensen is a great follow.
Love the recaps as always!
