Your “Time (And The Games) March On” Sunday Afternoon NFL Open Thread

I’m all for a slate that is 50% interesting. Meh, they’re all fine and dandy when one is playing the fantasy ball, really. Let’s see what’s on tap…

To The Games!

Cards/Rams:

Rarely has a trade met expectations the way that “Stafford to the Rams” has. So far. McVay, finally having a qb that can make every throw (and is tickled pink to be on a team that doesn’t have 70 years-and-still-going Losing Culture) has opened up the playbook and opposing teams have been caught flat-footed. Fatt has responded with a 9TD, 1INT, 942 yards stat line. Someone has to get the L tonight and the numbers say Arizonny-McVay is 8-0 against them.

Seahawks/Niners:

Both these secondaries suck balls so expect to see them flying. Kittle has had a nice run but he seems to be the guy that is going to have nagging injuries the rest of his career. Maybe it’s just me. As for Seattle, The Legion of Boom is long gone and teams can run/pass on them with impunity these days.

Ravens/Broncos:

A sticky D, a weak sked and surprisingly ubercompetent play from Teddy B have Denver sitting pretty at 3-0. Now comes the hard part. That run D that limits teams to 3.1 per go now has to deal with a ‘More hard ground game that cruises to the tune of 4.9 per.

Steelers/Packers:

Expect rook rb Najee Harris to fade at some point if he’s going to be utilized like this for any lengthy period of time. He’s played 96% of available snaps so far. Congrats to those of you that passed on an rb and grabbed Davante Adams in fantasy-especially in PPR. Over the last two weeks he’s given you 20 grabs and 253 yards. Here’s a stat for you-in Pitt’s last 11 games they’ve been outscored 64-6 in the 1st quarter. That lone 6 points? It was a interception run in by Joe Haden. Gah!

Enjoy what’s on offer.

Can I pass on tonight’s Brady fellatio fest?

Mr. Ayo

NAWT OPTIONAL!

litre_cola

Hippo already has.

Gatoraids

Gronk is the portrait of Dorian Grey for all Bradys hits

hippofant

Every time Brady cums, take a nice big swallow of your drink. Just gulp that warm feeling down your throat.

yeah right

Yes. I’ve got “On the Waterfront” recorded and I’m probably going that way.

“In high def Carl Maldens nose hairs look like PX cables.”

-Paulie G somewhere in Jersey

Anthony In TX

Actually, you’re first in the barrel

Gumbygirl

Jackie Slater is pissed off, Vince Ferragamo is sad. Still better than watching the Brady blowing festival on NBC.

yeah right

Naw man fucking Yankees and Sawx got in and left Toronto and Seattle outside looking in.

Anthony In TX

Wellllll… I’m an Astros fan* due to being born and raised in Houston, so not too shabby.

*I fully admit to being a fairweather fan, as I don’t really care about baseball, only watch the playoffs, and only really pay attention when the Astros are good

Mr. Ayo

If you like cheaters so much, why aren’t you a P*ts fan too?

Anthony In TX

My only arguments in rebuttal to people talking about the Astros cheating are a) they absolutely 1,000,000% were not the only team cheating in MLB, b) they still had to hit pitches and get people out, and c) even without cheating they were a really, really fucking good team.

But yeah, they cheated. Oh well. It is what it is.

Anthony In TX

(I’m aware that I’m justifying cheating and am in no way trying to excuse it. Just wanted to point out they weren’t the only ones and they still had to play and win the games.)

Horatio Cornblower

Which they did win.

By cheating.

yeah right

I have an unvaccinated nephew, twin brother to the offensive coordinator of the Reedley fucking Tigers (who is fully vaxxed) this nephew lives in Oklahoma which pretty much explains everything.

I’m the commissioner of our fantasy football league and one of the teams is run by one of my many former girlfriends.

Nephew sends me a text saying “Former girlfriend isn’t running her team.”

He wants to get a buddy of his in the league.

I sent him a text saying “Get the vaccine and I’ll actually listen to you.”

Gumbygirl

Except for Rockingdog, did anyone’s team win today?

King Hippo

I thought he liked to RRRRRRRRRRRRRAM IT??

Gumbygirl

Who, Rockingdog? I thought he was a Seahawk pup.

King Hippo

Ayo and Beer Guy support the Truthers, though

Mr. Ayo

HOX!!!1!!1

yeah right

No.

Nope.

No.

Horatio Cornblower

I’m ahead, (thanks to Internet Dad starting two guys who were out), but we each have 2 remaining players from Tampa, and his is Brady.

Horatio Cornblower

Oh, if we’re talking real teams yes, my favoUrite team, and for that matter America’s team, the Dallas Cowboys, did win today.

/just fucking pelted with a hail of rotten fruit and garbage

Anthony In TX

/that ain’t fruit

Anthony In TX

Uhhhh, no. 40-0 no. Just the biggest ass whoopin’ in team history.

Game Time Decision

Mine is going to win (GB)

/No longer Gumbygirl favourite

Gumbygirl

Be Best.

Anthony In TX

*citation needed

Gumbygirl

It’s not grammatical, so she couldn’t have stolen it from Michele Obama.

Anthony In TX

Good point. That’s about the only thing she didn’t steal from Michele (well, that, and whatever that horror show of Christmas decorations she did was)

litre_cola

My weekend was Puebla, Fulham, Iggles losing.

That being said the Gigantes did hold off the blue team for the NL West title.

yeah right

My Bournemouth Cherries won and still have not lost a bloody fucking game.
Guess it’s EFL for me going forward.

Horatio Cornblower

Just got a ticket to the Yankee-Red Sox WC game in Tuesday.

Goyim Space Lasers have hit the 200 mark!!

King Hippo

Garbage DEEBO-time WOO

Gumbygirl

Gumby has Stafford in ff. He was bummed, until he realized the guy he’s playing didn’t start Kyler!

Don T

One fine afternoon at Titans’ reddit

litre_cola

Why is he in Northern Ontario?

Anthony In TX

Who?

Anthony In TX

Sorry.

Whom?

Gumbygirl

He’s a bum. You know what to do.

Doktor Zymm

Turns out RAMMIT is sheep in sheep’s clothing

Horatio Cornblower

Funny, they don’t look Welsh.

WCS

Offensive offense is highly offensive, something THE BEN knows all too well.

Gatoraids

Ben seems to have stalled again

Horatio Cornblower

I’d say try turning him off and then back on again, but we all now Ben reacts poorly to being turned off.

WCS

Happens when you get older.

litre_cola

So is RAMMIT not as good as we thunk or are the Quards actually best team in the west?

ballsofsteelandfury

RAMMIT is never good

litre_cola

Damn LA Bias strikes again?

King Hippo

YES

Gatoraids

forgot Marino retired for the memes at 420 TDs

WCS

What the fuck is with the terrible NFL clothing this year. These bday cakes sweaters are brutal and the hats with skid marks look stupid.

Anthony In TX

They’re encouraging you to get screened for cancer!

Somehow!

Don T

Taste cancer, I reckon

ballsofsteelandfury

Just turned the Steelers game off. To be fair, I watched it way longer than I thought I would.

Anthony In TX

My daughter brought home porn from school today. SMH they’ll let them read anything.

Sean Hochuli taking them to the BB gun show

Doktor Zymm

Is Pinktober no longer a thing?

Dunstan

I had totally forgotten about breast cancer.

litre_cola

What about the TROOPZ???

WCS

comment image

We wrassle for them.

Gatoraids

They’ve pulled out of breasts now too

Horatio Cornblower

Didn’t we beat it last October by wearing pink?

Dunstan

I thought it was all those free exams I gave out.

King Hippo

Apparently replaced by those Fashion Crime funfetti hoodies?

Anthony In TX

They changed it to “A Crucial Catch,” with a focus on screening for all types of cancer.

Gumbygirl

Didn’t they limit it to one weekend a few years ago?

King Hippo

DEEBO WOO!!!!!!!!!!

rockingdog

Hawks vs 49ers is Rockin
Yay football! 🏈

Yanks walk it off on a weak fielder’s choice by Aaron Judge, just like the old gypsy woman foretold.

Brocky

Packers fans thought that was a perfectly clean hit by tj. They know hits not a dirty player

rockingdog

Wiiiillllllsssoooonnnnn!!!

So for the evening game, is there some sort of backstory or subplot I should know about?

Viva La Tabula Raza

Nothing that I have been made aware of.

Horatio Cornblower

Two teams that should have stayed with their original uniforms. True classics replaced by generic crap.

Other than that I can’t think of anything.

Gatoraids

Rollout of Bellichicks dating app Grumble where Bill contacts Brady’s mom first.

Horatio Cornblower

That might explain why Brady’s dad can’t keep his mouth shut.

King Hippo

ok, let’s see that Horse Cock, Mr. Lock.

Doktor Zymm

This kid is watching the Santa Clara gamecomment image

King Hippo

Charm. Fucking. SLINGER!

rockingdog

Yes!!!!
Russell Wilson with the TD!!
That’s Rocking!!!! 💯

Horatio Cornblower

The Yankees need literally one run and they clinch. It seems to be too much for them.

Easily the most aggravating team I’ve ever rooted for.

King Hippo

I see the Nats fucked up the entropy, I assume the MLB office is paying teams off to get Yanks/SAWX

Horatio Cornblower

I mean, the Nats aren’t even a major league team at this point.

King Hippo

but they was UP 5-1!!

Horatio Cornblower

I have a Red Sox friend who was freaking out about that and I kept saying “It’s the Nationals.”

Yanks, meanwhile, have the bases loaded and one out and Stanton coming to the plate and I am going to throw up.

Horatio Cornblower

Scratch that, pitching to Judge with 1b open. Still nauseous.

litre_cola

All of Canada (‘cept me) sighs.

Doktor Zymm

THIS 49RS TEAM I CALL IT SANTA ANITA RACETRACK BECAUSE EVERYONE WHO RUNS ON IT ENDS UP WITH BUSTED LEGS

Horatio Cornblower

85 rushing yards, no scores. My opponent has him on his bench.

rockingdog

Gaaahhhh
These drops by Hopkins and Metcalf are
NOT ROCKINGGG

Woof

litre_cola

Ye Hollywood Brown actually caught one. Tis a brutal timeline my canine friend.

King Hippo

I am fading Hollywoo in money league, where I am on track to lose despite scoring 170+ – just shoot me already

rockingdog

Woooooof

WCS

BLEERGH LAUGHS AT YOUR SUDDEN CHANGE

King Hippo

One hell of a day, for the Mightiest of FITBAW Gods

Gumbygirl

I’m not feeling this nonsense today. Think I’ll go take a bath.

Big Ben’s arm can’t play defense anyway, either.

litre_cola

Now that was a mid day nap!

Gatoraids

big ben is that you?

King Hippo

So….Qards the new bestest team in the universe?

Mr. Ayo

Kyler is terrifying.

Doktor Zymm

The predictions have come to pass
https://youtu.be/LrxZblVUkMU

King Hippo

Bro-off contest – Maxx Williams v. Nick Siriani?

Game Time Decision

If he didn’t call the bank, it doesn’t count

King Hippo

Need to chew some clock AND get seven, Donks.

WCS

PRAISE DOINK’HLOR?

King Hippo

If you make it off the bar, the FG should be worth 4.

WCS

I concur.

Gatoraids

PPB leagues, .5 for doinks

Doktor Zymm

Ever notice how Rammit rhymes with dammit?

Warthog

Kinda like how Dolphins rhymes with mediocrity.

Gatoraids

we’ll still convert 7 first rnd draft picks in 3 years into a gripping battle for 2-3 in the AFC east, thanks jets
