TO THE GAMES!
Chargers/Broncos:
In “Did I Read This Right?” news the Chargers have allowed only one rushing TD to a running back all year. I didn’t believe it so I went through each box score and yeah, Taysom Hill and Joe Burrow have run one in but they gave up their first to James Robinson just last week! So when I heard a fantasy dude this morning saying that this is Melvin Gordon’s “revenge game” I snorted to myself. Bosa and Ingram should just keep rolling along because the Broncos allow pressure at a greater rate than anyone other than the Jetskis.
Saints/Bears:
Foles isn’t the answer, is he? Even when he was in a clean pocket on Monday he only averaged 4.3 yards per throw. I mean, I can’t see them going back to Truth Biscuit so they’re stuck in no qb land. And they’ve got enough skills guys to make themselves a nuisance in the NFC if only they could rearrange the pieces of the puzzle. Michael Thomas owners should be happy/get back on track now that he’s back. The expectation is that he’ll rack up the yards (natch) but not the TD’s because Chicago’s D tends to lock down on wr’s as they near the red zone.
Niners/Seahawks:
You’d think that Jimmy G might have to air it out in order to keep up with his counterpart Wilson. And that’s an easy thing to do vs. the Seattle secondary this year as there’s no killer D back there. They still have the horsies up front though-only Cook and Mattison have gone for as many as 60 yards against the Seahawks.
Your turn to type.
Hey look, the sun’s almost down. Fucking daylight saving
Wait! Aren’t we out of Daylight Savings and back to Standard time now? I get confused. I should move to AZ, they don’t fuck around with that MDT/MST bullshit
Correct, this is standard time, despite it being less than half the year ever since W’s attempt at ‘energy policy’
Stop, you’re making me nostalgic for W now.
Lol “energy policy”
Next season’s “point of emphasis” for officiating needs to be these weak-ass PI calls where the QB just floats/underthrows a deep ball down the sideline. It’s the equivalent of diving in the box (PHRASING) in Lesser Footy.
Man oh man do I hope Breez gets benched for Jameis
Thats a Hasty call
WOOOO! I had faith in you boys. Never doubted for a minute.

So much for my “brilliant” decision to start GB Defense
sorry about that, Imaginary Pal. I wasn’t trying to fuck you over for being a Small Bear fan.
Come on. Go to Aiyuk on the sweep this time. Don’t fake it. He’ll get in!
We’ve seen like 4 plays of Donks/Clippers du Merde, because it is a very sad thing.
“Do not let the peasant know how good cheese is with pears.”
It’s true, unless you’re a peasant, in which case pay no attention, cheese and pears are crap together
If you are a peasant, you are not eating cheese or pears. You are eating refried beans or gruel.
The quote is from Italy in the middle ages, so at that point the peasants were the ones growing the pears and making the cheese, but nowadays, yeah, not so much
I’m usually pretty good at obscure references, but you just blew me out the airplane window with that one.
Another day where I learned something new.
I only found it earlier today in a cookbook I have
HOLY SHIT, Foles competence?
He was like 7 yards beyond the last defender, and Foles still almost fucked it up.
He’s streaky
Every so often, he’ll give you a good one

His next good game was 5 years later
His last good game was the one after that
Until they can replicate butter and every type of cheese, vegans can fuck right off
Having a vegan sister (and nephew by default), I end up trying vegan things every so often, and every year it’s like they get one more thing almost perfect, but just reminds me that 90% of it is trash
I’ve actually had really good Vegan Boston Cream Pie, but yeah, there’s a lot of taste inequality in vegan food
Tawmmy from Quinzee has joined the chat
THAT’S WHAT I CALLED THE ONE NIGHT STAND WITH THAT HAWT CHICK FROM WELLESLEY. NO ONE DENIES THIS!
I think it’s probably smarter, as a vegetarian/vegan, to stop substituting crap and just embrace the new stuff. Stop eating shitty ass fake-meat that makes you long for real meat and find some actual good shit to eat. (For example, Asian Buddhists have made delicious food with soy and gluten for centuries now.)
But the free market demands we keep perfecting vegan burgers that may actually be worse for us than real ones
I tried the Impossible Burger. It was alright. It was definitely not a burger though.
Also taro and shoots. I think this is taro. I think.
There’s a lot of veggie/vegan food I like, but I also crave variety. I’m not going to stop eating something I love just because there are other foods that are also delicious.
Sure. I just SMH at vegetarians who choke down tofurkey instead of just fully embracing good vegetarian food. Tofurkey’s not going to satisfy your turkey craving anyways! Just eat better food and develop new cravings!
Some deep-fried tofu cubes with spicy salt? Delicious. I’m craving it right now!
There was a place in NYC I used to go that had amazing General Tso’s Tofu, not the same as the chicken version, but far, far better
My last trip to Harris Teeter, I discovered smoked/cured Pork Belly Bites. You’ll take meat out of my cold, ded hands.
We only eat meat once a week now. I respect vegans and try to buy the expensive dairy products that they promise were made by happy cows, but yea I need real cheese and butter in my life.
Sam Elliot pimpin’ for Joe. That’s cool, dude.

Going for a nap. Will it last 2 hours or 12 hours? Let’s find out!
If you can stretch it out for 61 days, you can rejoin us when the year of hell on Earth is finally over.*

That book absolutely haunted me. But I could not put it down.
Ya keep waiting for some ray of hope, but no.
I also couldn’t believe how much darker the booky-book No Country For Old Men was, compared to the film (which I saw first).
Sweet dreams!
Ambien or weed who ya got
Yes.
Yes, NFL on Fox, I am sure that I will be watching Fox News for Fair and Balanced coverage on Tuesday night.
Every two years (and occasionally during primary season), I have to search my brain to recall what channel MSNBC is, so I can watch returns. That is all the TV news I can stand.
To be fair (and balanced), one of my favorite election night memories was tuning into Fox News on Election Night in 2012 just in time to see Karl Rove melt down as they called critical states for Obama.
The tension between the “news” side of Fox News (who have a dirty job to do but try to maintain some integrity) and the “opinion” side (who will say whatever they find useful) sometimes boils over in entertaining ways.
“We’re Going To Win Ohio, Wahhhh!!!!”
“Is this just math that you do as a Republican to make yourself feel better, or is this real?”
For that one moment, I forgot that Megyn Kelly is a soulless Murdoch drone.
It’s all a matter of degree, innit?
I loved it when Rove flipped out. “Ohio was bought and paid for!!!”
I voted for all the California props that will kill old people and make everyone homeless.

I love getting canuck commercials on these streams
These defensive celebrations keep getting worse. Just snap a dick pic and send to the QB’s mom.
Way ahead of you, grumble grumble.
How long until we get CJ Cregg back under center for the Tomsulas?
As long as they throw a TD to Aiyuk I dont care who is under center
Trubisky getting a snap and Santos drilling a field goal–this is a rollercoaster of emotions

My neighbor is a roid raged republican that works out loudly in his garage. Based on his music choices, Republicans listen to music about being mad at their parents and think the Machine is homework or something.

Bollo de Verdad sighting. And we now return to BDNick’s impotence…
Congrats to Tevin Coleman on having 2 knees again!
Guy on Bears with name of Mustipher, which is how I imagine a Trumper would pronounce Mustafa.
You spelled “Dirty Terrorist” wrong.

Maybe a Trump Parade can make them free to go to work again! It worked in Austin for the Longhorns!
—Stephen Miller
Astoundingly, the people who get super pissed off about protests closing highways have been silent about the Trump parades which have closed highways. And here I was thinking they were complaining in good faith, and weren’t just racists!
It feels like nowadays sexist/racist/homophobic/xenophobic/fascist/Nazi/whatever should pretty much be our default assumption.
You’re just dipping your toe in the ocean of hypocrisy.
“Look, I’m an enlightened moderate centrist just like anybody else, and I gotta tell you, for regular average people like me, inconveniencing them like this is just going to drive them to the other side! Sure, I support your right to protest but it’s just not smart to be antagonizing people like me who would otherwise support you!”
those shit heads have been doing that hear in Austin every other weekend since June.
Broncos are up 3-0 at the end of the 1st quarter. In honor of President Trump, they have declared victory and demanded that the referees stop awarding points.
Now we find out, am I patient enough to let the brie+pear pie rest long enough that there won’t be delicious melty cheese running everywhere? It’s long, long odds.

I feel like trying to buy footy teams would be one of my pandemic hobbies if I had enough money
I mean, it’s a fine alternative if one just can’t wait for the release of Footy Manager 2021.

I didn’t know Soldier Field was using FedEx Field’s turf today.
They’ve both always just been spray painted concrete
Which one has more nails and broken bottles mixed in?
Fedex, although Soldier has more coyote dens and empty bags of wine
I’m very impressed they were able to condense all the highlights from the Raiders – Browns barnburner down to just 12 minutes.
Alright late games, bring it!
You mean Late Game. I get Old Man Brees and Above Average Foles.

I know that there be back end ( ha) issues with posting times that are being worked on, but just wanted to say that we need to do something about this premature* posting.
