Your “It’s All On” Saturday Evening Open Thread

One question: Has anyone watched the “Loki” series yet? Having been raised by comic books, I’ve been partial to the Marvel movies. (Especially since I’ve been greatly disappointed by the DC ones.) I want to start, but the only TV we have that is modern enough to allow us to use Disney+ is in the bedroom, and if I start watching anything in there I’m asleep within ten minutes. It took about ten weeks to watch the “Falcon & Winter Soldier” show because I kept being taken hostage by The Sandman. For the same reason, I’m only up to Episode 4 of “The Mandalorian”.

Upon looking at these words I’ve just typed, maybe the problem is the show & not any hints of narcolepsy I might have. Ignore me.

Looking at the morning thread, I see everyone’s of good spirit. There’s not much really that needs to be said. Saturday means relaxation. Watching footy means relaxation. So that meant nothing got started or done until at least 2:00pm Best Coast time. Really, it’s as close to a NFL Sunday as you’re going to find in the offseason.

And the evening holds much promise as well. There’s a wide variety of programming this evening, with at least two things to hold each of our ADD-addled minds at bay.


Tonight’s sports:

  • NHL:
    • Lightning vs Islanders – 8:00pm | USA / CBC / Sportsnet

    • Cincinnati at San Diego – 7:15pm | FOX
    • St. Louis at Atlanta – 7:15pm | FOX
  • NCAA:
    • College World Series:
      • Arizona vs Vanderbilt – 7:00pm | ESPN
  • MMA:
    • UFC Fight Night – Jung vs. Ige
      • Prelims – 5:00pm | ESPN / TSN3
      • Main card – 7:00pm | ESPN / TSN3
  • Futbol:
    • MLS:
      • Orlando vs. Toronto – 7:30pm | TSN
  • Golf:

It’s a good thing that ‘diss’ is short for disrespect rather than dismemberment. YouTube would be way more gruesome

Senor Weaselo

Senorita Weaselo is reading the PF Chang’s menu. I don’t think I’ve ever heard her laugh this hard, and we just watched the Roast of Lucille Ball.

Senor Weaselo

Oh Nets, please never stop Netsing.

And I wonder what the Modell’s on Flatbush Ave’s going to be now since they closed.

Mr. Ayo

Where the fuck is Ian? He owes us an Infinite Nets blog.

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

THIS RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN DFO AND IAN I CALL IT THE NETS-BUCKS GAME 7 BECAUSE IT PRODUCED SOME MAGICAL ENTERTAINMENT BUT IT HAD SOMEWHAT OF AN UGLY ENDING.

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

If Durant had been more like Krusty the Klown and less like Sideshow Bob that game-tying two would have been a game-winning three.

Doktor Zymm

It’s still light out y’all, cheers!

Good night. I leave you with the running of the pugs. Faster than you think!

Doktor Zymm

Lots of construction in SeaTac

Mr. Ayo

Way better than Denver.

You just flying through?

Doktor Zymm

Yup, layover on my way to Chicago for a couple days

Mr. Ayo

Oh right, forgot you were a slumlord there. Guess you’re allowed to evict now?

Doktor Zymm

Tenant moved out in January after offering me a pittance to buy the place. It’s gonna be where I flee to during fire season now. Gonna hook up the internet, do some painting, and maybe see the sorta ex

Doktor Zymm

Tenant also left behind a bunch of uncashed checks from her grandma and all her health insurance documentation, if anyone needs a new identity and can pass for a woman in her early 20s who is supported by their parents

Easy, young women don’t do that.

Wish the game hadn’t ended on such a wet fart. Such a fun watch otherwise.

Brocky

Excitement!

One would think I’d be rooting against the bucks here, the assumption being there would be some over lap between them and packers fans.

But to be honest I’ve never met a Milwaukee Bucks fan in my life.

Of the packers fans I know who do watch the NBA are too busy rooting for the bulls, rooting for the warriors, or rooting for whatever team lebron is on

Senor Weaselo

In fairness I know, like, 2 Nets fans.

Viva La Tabula Raza

I’ve seen pictures of numerous Bucks fans wearing Bucks T-shirts. They have a strong following in equatorial African nations.

Can’t fault KD on this one. Though as the song goes, fuck ‘em.

This is a hell of a basketball game.

Mr. Ayo

If the Bucks lose, then yes.

Otherwise, this will be a giant pall on this year’s playoffs.

Mr. Ayo

Stupid Brooklyn. Enjoy your offseason.

herodotus450

3-0 is the most dangerous lead in hockey, we all knew it

Dunstan

The most dangerous lead in hockey is whatever lead the Leafs have.

Mr. Ayo

Harden you useless piece of shit. WTF was that sequence?

JFC just shoot underhand you hack.

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

He took thirteen seconds to do what he could have done in two.

Mr. Ayo

My exes wish I had that ability.

herodotus450

In honor of his liftetime acheivements I think the NHL should award Barry Trotz some sort of … award, with a generous cash prize which all hockey fans can contribute to, with the condition that he quit coaching forever so he can never pollute playoff hockey with this boring bullshit ever again.

Mr. Ayo

Wouldn’t it be cheaper to just pay an assassin and be done with it?

(JK, lol, go away FBI)

herodotus450

Better not, on the off chance that that would make him a martyr and the whole league would go whole hog buying into his boring defense first system.

Horatio Cornblower

Back from golf with the son’s gf’s male relatives. Stayed sober, made sure to shoot the highest score, (I really had no choice), and hit just enough good shots to not completely disgrace myself.

Also managed to keep my thoughts about the cart girl to myself as well, unlike Matt Gaetz, so I’ve got that going for me.

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

Our hosts for the last couple nights have a twenty year-old daughter. I worked pretty hard at trying not to be creepy around her, especially when the Dr. Mrs. repeatedly invited the girl to come stay with us while she’s doing an internship in LA this summer.

Horatio Cornblower

This one was very attractive, tan, tight black unitard with boobs pushed up to a hilarious extent.

She knows exactly what she’s doing, is probably making a ton of money off of horny old goats, and god bless her for doing so.

I do not think my wife would have invited her over to stay with us.

Did I ever tell you about the time I took home the drink cart girl? I did? Repeatedly? Well, get comfortable, I’m telling it again because it was the most awesome thing that ever happened to me.

Horatio Cornblower

/Settles in.

/pours glass of wine

Go on.

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

Originally I was kidding, but maybe I should actually write it up and post it. It’s a pretty happy story.

Mr. Ayo

There better be pics.

ballsofsteelandfury

This absolutely should be a post!

Mr. Ayo

I have quite the soft spot for skorts. Pretty sure I’ve tipped more than I’ve drank in my golfing career due to them.

BugEyedBoo

Loki: I’m not a big Owen Wilson fan, but the show is pretty good so far. It’s been the most comic-book flavored of the Disney+ MCU series. Granted, it’s only two episode into it.

GAME 7 Nets vs Bucks!
YES!
we are ROCKING!!!!

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

Sorry for your loss.

Gumbygirl

He was a good boy.

Horatio Cornblower

Major killed him.

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

Yeah but it was under orders from Hillary Clinton.

rockingdog

Yea im a little sad.
He was a real Rocking Presidential Dog.
Didn’t like the biting tho…

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

It was Major that had the aggressive incidents. Champ might have pooped on the floor, though. Also under HRC’s orders.

litre_cola

Deci is at the grandparents motorhome, and we are, gasp, going for dinner in an actual restaurant!

Doktor Zymm

Enjoy!

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

We did that last night. Have the eggplant, it’s a revelation.

/assumes you are going to the same restaurant that we did (Mayfield’s in San Juan Capistrano)

Horatio Cornblower

I’m going to go ahead and just get the McRib, if that’s OK with Your Highness.

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

You have my permission.

FWIW I tried the Carl’s Jr. chicken sandwich today. It was fine but surely a step down from BK’s one.

Gumbygirl

I’m not ready for that.

litre_cola

It was a French brasserie we used to go to all the time. All the resto seats had plexiglass in between, so we had our own petite boite.

2 glasses of Loire sauv with oysters, and mussles
2 glasses of Syrah from Rhone with Steak au Poivre and double duck fat fried potatoes.

A glass of Sauternes for dessert.

Lovely.

Gumbygirl

Wow, that sounds so good!

Doktor Zymm

I don’t know what I plan on having for dinner, but I do know that it absolutely will not be a tuna sandwich from Subwaycomment image?quality=90&auto=webp

Mr. Ayo

I’m going to have a chimichanga and I’m certain it will look better than that tomorrow.

Gumbygirl

I have the bottom half of a rotisserie chicken, some scalloped taters, and probably a salad. It’s so fucking hot, I’m not going to heat up the chicken, and the tates are going to be nuked quickly. I hate this shit, I would murder a hobo for some ac.

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

> I would murder a hobo for some ac.

As opposed to scotchy, who does it for love of the game.

BeefReeferLives

Just got back from having margaritas and nachos on the patio of a Mexican restaurant. Oh Fuck Yes. So glad to be able to do that again…

Kyle Busch got win #100 in the Xfinity series. That’s impressive.

Mr. Ayo

SPOILER!

I’m sure his was working well today. Will watch after today’s playoffs finish.
