Your NFL Football Open Thread Numero Quattro

Good news everyone! I’m projected to lose in every league that I’m in. And some leagues that I’m not in.

Well, it’s been a day, hasn’t it? It’s been extra hard for me. All the typing! But it’s worth it. (if I wasn’t able to do it, someone else would jump in) Well, there’s only one last thing to do…

To The Game!

Bills/Chiefs:

-What a difference a qb/different offensive system/coaching makes! Manny Sanders’ aDOT last year as a Saint was 8.8. This year he’s sitting at 16.8. Though that’ll likely go down, Sanders is a fine addition to a Bills O that is always interesting to watch. Unless Moss is playing. (Singletary owner)

-Oof! Hill and Kelce hung a ’22 grabs, 290 yards’ number around the Bills neck the last time these squadoos played. Buffalo’s motto is likely borrowed from Pat Morita’s credo, “No Can Defend!”.

-HOWEVER, the Chiefs D are right now bottom 5 in yards allowed per play against the pass and the run. And they’ve given up at least 29 points in every game this year. Will this be an ongoing thing for Mahomes over his career? He scores at such a pace that the D is on the field very frequently and usually gassed in the 4th quarter. They don’t need stars on D as much as they need quality depth.

-After getting thrashed by Pitt in the first week the Bills are not risking Stockholm Syndrome. (they’re talking no prisoners, umm, hostages) They’ve outscored their last three opponents 118-21.

Turn the lights out, I’m done.

Ball is bouncing weird
Rays got a double and looking to take the lead. Game still tied.
Bar is nervous 😬

Sharkbait

Need MOAR Mahomesdowns

Doktor Zymm

In my middle age, I think the main middle aged characteristic I have developed is a super annoying laugh. I know I am doing it and cannot stop

blaxabbath

Fuck ’em all. You pay your taxes

Sharkbait

Like Jimmy Carr esque?

Horatio Cornblower

Bizarre situation in Boston. Tampa player hits a ball off the wall, ball bounces off wall, hits Sox OF and bounces back into the field.

I have no idea what the rule is, but that can’t be a ground rule double.

blaxabbath

I don’t follow this sequence right I think.

Mr. Ayo

Terrible ruling. That run should be in.

Horatio Cornblower

Agreed. if it’s umpire discretion and they used that to say the Rays runner wouldn’t have scored then they’re drunk.

Mr. Ayo

Jeff Passan posted the rule. They called it right.

Horatio Cornblower

Yeah, saw that. Bizarre, probably should be changed, but is what it is for now.

Gatoraids

Andy Reid: mmmmmmm Pringle

TheRevanchist

When him and Gordon hang out after the game, the munchies might destroy the entire city.

WHEW NAWT TYREEK

THESE KANSAS CITY CHIEFS I CALL THEM THE REANIMATED CORPSE OF ASHLII BABBITT BECAUSE, REGARDLESS OF THEIR TEAM’S PREFORMANCE, THEY WILL NEVER GET RID OF THAT RED COLOR ALL OVER THEIR SHIRTS.

Doktor Zymm

Kinda looked like Buffala just threw a punch into the pile but guess that is okay nawt a head shot

Gatoraids

Gordon’s alive?!

TheRevanchist

Damn straight! Still high, but on Jesus? Idk. That’s what I’m sure said to get reinstated again.

He’s certainly old enough to remember the Punic Wars first-hand

Buddy Cole's Halftime Show

Uncle Ed once said, “I was really rooting for Marv Levy to win the Super Bowl because he would’ve been the first Jewish coach to win it all”

“That’s very progressive of you Uncle Ed.”

“Nah, I just wanted to call them the Dollar Bills and send some shitty Intifada jokes to Letterman.”

Sharkbait

FLAG! Drink

King Hippo

Hope you enjoy the pending coma, if that is tonight’s house rule!

Doktor Zymm

That is the point of drinking games yes?

King Hippo

I miss being able to handle my comas.

Doktor Zymm

I don’t care about comas, if you can do well with your commas, you good with me

I was not aware of this version of The Girl Next Door (2007)

To the Research Screen!

Doktor Zymm

Is the reasearch screen the same as incognito?

Horatio Cornblower

it’s what I call my TV to make ‘watching porn’ sound classy.

hippofant

But it says it’s a documentary!

Buddy Cole's Halftime Show

In defense of Jon Gruden, I used to call Toni Braxton “Michelin Lips” back in the 90s but that was mostly due to a horrible UTI rumor I heard about on UseNet

ballsofsteelandfury

México 3 Honduras 0.

Everyone can breathe a sigh of relief now.

Doktor Zymm

DRAGA! DRAGA!

BLEERGH is feasting this quarter

Spur
Doktor Zymm

It is already on non-standard Nirvana, think the dude at the end might be on the tunes

Doktor Zymm

The Maestro

The Red Sox are not making things easy on my heart… and I’ve already had a rough day on that front. Just get this shit done, lads.

BAWSTON SACKS CAWK

Doktor Zymm

So when QBs wear a fanny pack in front, what is it? A scrote pack? A shaft muff?

litre_cola

Keeps your pube-fro warm.

Gatoraids

he probably has truck nuts in them, maybe an Air Sack

Doktor Zymm

A grower not a shower lower flower?

Gatoraids

Thought knowing Allen probably holstering this

guns.jpg
Gatoraids

good start on the 22 points I need from Allen tonight vs Herbert TDune Pentalogy

Horatio Cornblower

These solid red Chiefs unis would earn a bounty in Texas.

Doktor Zymm

For any goddam feriners who be like ‘feetbal hehe has not feet’ today has much kicking importance!

King Hippo

Tyreek’s two drops make Hippo happy. But NOT because I am a decent person or anything.

Horatio Cornblower

Tonight his wife and kid would probably be safer in a Britt Reid operated Uber.

litre_cola

Because he is a horrible person?

King Hippo

Fantasy opponent ONLY

Doktor Zymm

Decent people have shit lives, it is good nawt to aspire that way but to take joy in the same shit plus more!

Doktor Zymm

I am the only person in this bar watching the feetballs. Should I jukebox?

litre_cola

Oh yeah fire on some tunes that you like and others would question.

Doktor Zymm

The most questionable thing would be Maddie and Tae

Gatoraids

Queue up The Boys are Back in Town 50 times

rockingdog

LOL
That would be Rocking! 🎵

Mr. Ayo

BLEERGH is asserting himself early.

Gumbygirl

I really should stay away from Twitter.

FBWb5A2WEAQYGAm.jpeg
Doktor Zymm

Ha!

Horatio Cornblower

Also probably stay away from the Uncle Touchy Memorial Playground.

Mr. Ayo

That looks like quite the ride!

Spur

The ride only open 1 week a month

Mr. Ayo

Pre-lubed, for your pleasure.

Doktor Zymm

Okay, in tWBS memorial league, need Josh Allen and Nyheim Hines to get more than -8 points. Think I am okay

King Hippo

Hell is trying to fade Tyreek and Knox, with a 40-pt lead. I also have CE-H, but he’s a wet bag of shit.

rockingdog

OCG left. Couldn’t hang for the exxxxxxtra innings.
However this game plays out, it’s been ROCKING!
Goooo baseball! ⚾️

Horatio Cornblower

Balls is starting Josh Allen, Travis Kelce, and the Bills D against me in FF. I should watch the game, but Sox-Rays are in the 11th, and attention must be paid, to quote Willy Loman’s wife.

Anthony In TX

Chiefs are wearing their all-red look tonight.

Bills by 20, for aesthetic reasons only.

Doktor Zymm

Just realized i am nawt sure who won late games, must have napped. Will go check

Doktor Zymm

Hooray! Abby is at the bar, and apparently there is not a mask mandat cuz I have one in my bag but forgor to put it on the face and didn’t get yelled at and did get a whiskey sode

Doktor Zymm

Oh dear, not fully drunk yet but me spelling is atrocious. I feel unworthy of this full keyboard

Dunstan

Oh, whiskey soda? I guess I’ll have to drink this mezcal sour myself.

mezcal sour.jpg
Horatio Cornblower

I don’t use the word ‘hero’ lightly…

Doktor Zymm

That is a sexy ass drink

Dunstan

I found a list of Thanksgiving cocktails, and I am either honoUring my Canadian heritage and/or researching for American Thanksgiving.

This one is 1.5 oz mezcal, 1.5 oz lime juice, 1 oz amaro, 1 tsp agave, 1 egg white. Dry shake, then add ice and shake and strain. Angostura on top, lime peel garnish.

I’d give it a B+. Not going to be in heavy rotation, but it’s a nice change up.

Doktor Zymm

I love me some egg white cocktails

yeah right

You’re practically speaking Fozz! It’s a whole new language.

Gumbygirl

She’s bourbling like a professional!

rockingdog

Last funny;

god gives his biggest mamma mias to his spiciest meatballs

yeah right

Yesterday I recorded and watched both Mississippi State vs Arkansas and Oklahoma vs. Texas. Then today I watched Browns and Chargers. I think that’s a combined 4000 yards of offense and about 300 points.

Defense optional indeed.

I’m fucking exhausted.

rockingdog

Soxxxx vs Rays
Exxxxtrainnnings
OCG is hanging around
This is ROCKIN!!! 💯

Anthony In TX

When OCG shows up (or you show up if he’s there first), is there a big greeting? Or is it a simple “hi” and you get to drinkin’?

Horatio Cornblower

Norm!

Doktor Zymm

Okay, gotta cover my ass hopefully in a non-pants way to head to the bar for night game

Redshirt

If you wear a skirt at least let it reach halfway to your knees. Make them earn it.

Mr. Ayo

Unlike that hoe, Carrie Underwood.

Doktor Zymm

Okay, tshirt dress, kinda leggings, lets go!

Doktor Zymm

Shit shoes, okay sandals i good

Doktor Zymm

Nope, better, fake chucks!

ballsofsteelandfury

What a day of footballing, eh?

Yes, this is my first comment of the day. I don’t give a fuck about rules. Besides, I was out photographing models until midnight last night.

/ may be slightly delirious

BrettFavresColonoscopy

I hope you brought enough for everybody

ballsofsteelandfury

Someday, I’d like for you to write about your experience living in LA and then leaving. I’d be very interested in your thoughts on the topic.

BrettFavresColonoscopy

I’ll consider it

Don T

Models. Psht. Wake me when it’s deviants you’re photographin’

ballsofsteelandfury

Aren’t all models deviants?

Horatio Cornblower

Did they know you were photographing them?

BrettFavresColonoscopy

I need 11.4 points from Kelce tonight. Thank goodness it’s PPR.

Oh, and this lyft driver said he needed to stop for gas and then just….didn’t. So if you don’t hear from me later I got stranded and/or murdered on the 10.

Redshirt

That is why I don’t do lyft. When I get murdered, I want it done by someone I know.

That’s me and Gumby every time he’s behind me. You would think he’d be over it by now, but nah.

ballsofsteelandfury

That’s a beautiful thing.

That’s good. It equal parts playful and intimate.

Coolest thing about marriage: the quotidian ass grab / slap.
