Subsequent GTD reflections

Hello there fellow DFO’er.  Hope you’re well today.  And thanks for coming back to see last weeks comments of the week as decided by my brain.  There’s no reason as to why some comments make it and others don’t.  

Not even gonna start with anything this week and just get into lessor footy today:

Croatia vs Scotland ( 2 pm DFO time) in Glasgow
Both teams need a win to advance to the next round, so this will probably be the game to watch. Or not.  Historically, Croatia has never won against Scotland.  And Scotland has never made it to the next round. So, my wild ass guess is a 1-1 tie but with plenty of chances for each*.

Czech Republic vs England ( 2PM DFO time) in London
Both team have won a game and had a draw.  This makes this game the battle for top spot in Group D.  The Czech just need a draw to finish first in the group due to goal differential.  A draw also gets England in the the last 16.  So expect a 2-2 draw*.

*Prognostications done by someone that can bearly spell lessor footy, let alone follow it.

As a reminder, this post will cover comments made up to and through the Saturday Night Open Thread. Sunday comments stand alone and Monday comments will go on the next week’s post. Note that during the offseason, I’ll probably look at the Sunday posts.

Without further ado, here are the comments of the week.

THIS DELAY IN THE GAME I CALL IT ‘KAREN CARPENTER’ BECAUSE SOMEONE HAS GONE DOWN FROM HUNGARY!!
Horatio Cornblower

She must be lonely up in heaven, just sitting there waiting for Dan Fogelberg and the guys from Bread to die.
Fronkenshteen

Nah, she doesn’t want anything to do with Bread.

I hung a breaking ball, you smashed it out of the goddamn park.
Fronkenshteen

Coach: That ball would have stayed in a lot of parks.

Pitcher: Name one

Coach: (pause) Yellowstone?

Radio Commercial: “If this Reds game ends with a save, a donation will be made to a local suicide prevention charity.”

Me: “Aw. That’s make this impending Blown Save and Loss even more disappointing.”

I very recently said something like, “I’ll watch ‘Shooter’ any time it comes on.” I’ve come around-it’s complete garbage. I’ll never watch it again.

/anyone else go thru this process? Anyone else given up on their ‘guilty pleasure’?

I just went to the grocery store. As I was putting my stuff away, some Karen came storming up to me and said “they can’t make you wear that mask anymore. ” I said ” I have no idea what Von’s mask policy is. I’m wearing mine because of idiots like you.” Fuck off, stupid bitch, I’m a Navy fucking wife!

I guess my biggest injury is from a lifetime of casual overeating and sedentary lifestyle that will inevitably lead to obesity, heart disease, diabetes, and a general decline in quality of life before slightly lowering the average life expectancy of my demographic.

During the war I killed fifteen Germans.
Unfortunately I got shot four times.
Fortunately I was able to remove all the bullets myself.
Unfortunately this was in Iraq and those Germans were our allies.
Fortunately the paperwork got lost so I was never prosecuted.
Unfortunately the paperwork got lost so I never got paid either.

I see my banner comment involving Nazi aggression in WWII has been undone by a comments involving Russians.

How fitting.

Fuck the McCaskey family, fuck that dog track, fuck Matt Nagy, fuck Ryan Pace, and fuck Roger Goodell
BrettFavresColonoscopy

Boy if this is a fan’s reaction to his team moving 35 miles to the suburbs, my reaction to the Bengals moving to San Diego in 5 years is going to be glorious!

But serious, I agree. Its not as good as Wrigley Field but its Soldier Field for crying out loud! If you want to upgrade it, do what the New York Yankees did with Yankee Stadium and tear it down and rebuild it. (That’s the first positive thing I’ve said about the Yankees in my life.)

Debating whether or not to invite my ‘off the boat’ Scottish BIL over to watch the tilt tomorrow. The last time we got drunk together he showed me how to fall out of a stadium seat, a bar chair, a restaurant chair, a lounge chair and the hotel bed. (3 times)

/after he fell out of the lounge chair in the lobby of the hotel we were at, a security guard asked (I was paying the bar bill and just coming on to the scene) “Does he belong to you? Otherwise, we’re gonna have to call the cops”.

ESPN Rachel Nichols: “So Quin Snyder coach of the Utah Jazz, what does you’re team need to start doing to stop the Clippers offense.

QS: “Well, Rachel we really need to get better rotation on our double teams, were leaving the shooter way too open on his rotation.

Rachel: “More importantly how does is feel to be a wanted criminal and the notorious Dick Tracy is pursuing you?”

QS: “That’s not a fair question see? I was framed, see? That Dick Tracy is a no good rat I tell ya! A dirty no good government rat!”

Rachel: “So how do you stop Paul George in the second half?”

QS: “Well honestly Rachel, we need to have better interior defense and we have to push the ball.”

Rachel: “Thanks coach.”

QS “Thank YOU Rachel.”

This may be the first time I’ve ever seen VAR give a goal that wasn’t originally ruled a goal.

Should be an easy triumph for the Spanish — they had an empire that was the envy of the world at one time. Then again, you can never truly bet against Poland when they have their talisman (who is also a S.P.E.C.T.R.E. agent) in their squad.
