April Football Sabado Viva!

Yes, this would have been MOAR appropriate yesterday

I despise Satan Incarnate Block Editor, so this will be brief.

But huzzah, Premiership footy is back, even if we don’t get our Everton fix until Monday. Start your day with Chelski and the Brummies (7:30, NBCSN)! OK, only if you have small chilluns or is somewhat insomniac.

Things get a little better with manic Leeds against mentally-checked-out Team Knifey (10:00, NBCSN). This might be like watching a car crash, might be one of those out of nowhere bounce-back performances. Who the fuck knows?

1 v. 3 in the Spotlight Dance, City away to Foxy Footy (12:30, NBCSN). We have seen the Mancs in “crown their asses” mode for some time now. Leicester faces some fire from below, hoping not to blow Shempions League two years running. I have an inkling that this fixture will deliver, entertainment-wise.

Wakey’s 2nd position Red Devils get pseudo-resurgent Trash Birds to close our Lesser Day (just in time for hoopsball – 3:00, NBCSN). This is also gonna be kind of fun, methinks. Brighton always at least puts a shift in, and Ole’s bunch can be pretty up-and-down. But they certainly have the quality to take all three points. Just not without effoUrt, eh?

UPDATE – Woopsy doodle, I read the schedule wrong. It’s Gooners away to the Redshite instead. FUCK OFF, you get what you pay FOAR.

Reclusive, vulgar Broncos fan. Also a proud fookin' Evertonian. Likely dropped on my head repeatedly as a small child. [Insert George Carlin quote followed by thoughtful nod.]

What?!. The good guy and the bad guy both jumped out of an airplane that was on a tarmac and neither one sprained an ankle? My theory that ligaments and lower leg joints were much stronger in the late Sixties is finally, at last, coming together!

McQueen’s Mustang lost about 11 hubcaps during the iconic car chase.

scotchnaut

How many hoofs tho?

scotchnaut

A telecopier? A cigarette machine? Sixties technology was wild, man!

scotchnaut

There’s The Paper Chase starring John Houseman, which of course is first in the genre and then the chase scene in Bullitt, which is a close second.

Gumbygirl

Was Houseman wearing a bra?

scotchnaut

I couldn’t tell-once I looked into his dreamy blue eyes, I was taken away to a meadow where Houseman and I-holding hands-skipped amongst the daisies. Even in death, he still has that power over me.

He had that effect on everyone.

scotchnaut

Oh my, a young-ish Robert Duvall! He’s also braless. I’m sensing a theme…

scotchnaut

Oh my, a young, braless Jaqueline Bissett!

scotchnaut

Was there anyone cooler than Steve McQueen in Bullitt? (playing on TCM right now) I’ll take your answer off air.

Michael Owen giving some serious slurping action to The Broom.

In a surprising twist, this year Jesus does the burying.

Shrouds beating the Old Lady? That’s unpossible!

litre_cola

There ‘s the 2nd goal from the Old Lady.

Cecil Rhodes

Anything can happen on this weekend. Just ask Jesus Christ.

Gumbygirl

Don’t ask him now, he’s sleeping. He had a bad experience yesterday, and he’s still a bit cross.

Hike Time! Then I’ll watch the 2nd half of the Manc tilt.

Gumbygirl

Be careful out there, it’s bear season

Gumbygirl

Shit!

What the fuck Chelsea???? I do not believe that the Westest of Bromwiches will play much a role with Mightey Whitey and the Barcodes, but fuck Fat Sam all the same.

Cecil Rhodes

Good day, fellow Christians. Let us hope that those barbarians from the Merseyside get utterly dismantled by the King’s African Rifles today.

litre_cola

Cecil has returned from foreign lands! Perhaps our issue with the website will be rectified with the dark arts from the dark continent.

Gumbygirl

If he can figure out how to get an avatar for me I will worship him like a god! I went to Gravatar, they say I have a word press password, but they won’t tell me what it is. I don’t know what it is either!

litre_cola

My avatar switched to my twitter one apparently with the Fulham flag.

Viva La Tabula Raza

I think mine has switched back to an older one that I used in error and Balls changed out for me several years ago. But I’m not sure, it’s not something I pay much attention to.

The rubber/ eraser one got my poor kid no end of grief when he came back from Scotland in 3rd grade.

Good news! I’m dating again.*

Bad news: I’m the biggest sap for the Statue of Liberty selfie. Imagine if instead of a torch, Ms. Libertee had a cellphone, so it’s just face and cleavage. Critical thinking is no match for a dirty mind. Tch.

* Apologies to Barry Zuckerkorn.

First win at Chelsea since ’78? That’s crazy. Litre must be so happy for them!

/chuckles

scotchnaut

Oof! That’s an unfortunate result. Did Chelski not play a keeper today?
