I’m composing this as the first game window draws to a close and, well, I’ve seen some badly-played foots-ball my friend. It burns my retinas, it does. But the sunny side of things is that I do love to see upsets so there was that and lousy teams coming to play is always nice to see.
To The Game!
Titans/Rams:
-Given what occurred in the one o’clock window I feel I can safely say that the Titans aren’t actually dead in the water for this one.
-You’d have to think that King Henry is the most valuable player in the league with respect to his importance in making his team function effectively. The line shifted 3.5 points after the news came out.
-With the trade of Von Miller the Rams finally shored up a position of weakness that threatened to derail their…excuse me, something’s coming through my earpiece… Okay, apparently the Rams were already leading the league in sacks and now they have even more firepower. Just bow down in front of the Rams GM now and get it over with.
-It might be just a cameo appearance but we’ll likely see the grandfather of running backs, Adrian Peterson tonight. (Hey, wait a minute, I can still play! -Frank Gore) From what I saw last year his legs had left him but he was on the Lions.
-Kupp needs a mere 76 yards to become the fifth player to reach 1,000 yards receiving in just 9 games. Shouldn’t be much of a problem given that Stafford averages 320 at home and Kupp will get a healthy chunk of that.
Get going-you’ve work to do.
Like an episode of Top Gear, that’s not gone well, even with Stafford and Kupp getting at least some points.
/Sure I could’ve started Engram but that wouldn’t have helped too much more
Matt Stafford killed the Rams in like 30 seconds this game.
Either that or kill his son Isaac Stafford

Don T having a night.
I paced the nicotine gum just right.
It’s garbage time, Tits Win!

AP Down Wooooooooooooo!
If they are going to call roughing the passer, they were right to at least rough that bastard.
Titans get that call, they have Made It®️
It’s on in Tits country (aka Don’s PR) tonight!

Diaaaaa… Tego es crema.
God bless Adrian Peterson. Runs forward like a bull, sideways like a forklift.
It’s the ol’ bait and switch!
Dinner is served:
Fuck that looks amazing.
Gorgeous
Is that a mushroom and barley risotto?
Yes. Shiitake mushrooms
Gimmmeeeegimmmmeeegimmmmeee some of that! I had shitty pizza.
Well done on the Weezer bumper music

This referee needs to shave. It’s just not a good look in a game with these uniforms.

Huzzah, I have finally gotten to the lofty heights of 50 fantasy points this week.
No, I don’t have anyone playing Monday night.

I had the cassette single back in the day. At the time, I had heard it was a remake, but didn’t know the deets.

Watched the first 22 seconds on mute and it is entirely too white for me to enjoy.
That’s the worst 22 seconds. Maddie and Tae aren’t really making a statement here, they like the music they’re kinda objecting to, but they kinda accidentally did a good. Skip to the middle and on mute is good.
At the least, enjoy the chubby dude with the strawberry
It’s actually a very well done take down on sexism in country music.
How about the Homestar Runner?

This can not have been a good week for folks who like to bet on the feetball contests.
I have regrets. Drinking them away.
I cashed in DFS. Granted I did a single lineup, but it counts

That’s true until you get to the 3rd serving.
A friend brought me some from a family reunion in By God West Virginia. It was pretty good initially, but the aftertaste of gasoline got old quickly.
That stuff could have (literally) peeled paint; hate to think what it was doing to my liver.
The stuff I’ve had was all shitty but sugered to make it palatable, which…is not great. Especially since I’ve had backyard distilled stuff from Eastern Europe and the Balkans, which is stronger and better, although don’t take a lighter near it and don’t make plans for the next day where you need to feel okay
Most homemade alcohol sucks, with the exception of beer, which is harder to fuck up.
I remember when I was 17 I was visiting someone whose family had made some homemade wine. I was far from a wine snob, or any kind of alcohol snob, at the time, but I couldn’t stomach the stuff. We called it “Yugoslavian Rocket Fuel.”
About five years ago I was in my hometown, and my uncle came by for dinner. He offered me some of his homemade wine, and I said sure, because I am curious and polite. He proceeded to pour me something like 6 oz of some nasty rotgut. I managed to get it down and duck out of a second glass, but holy shit…
“with the exception of beer, which is harder to fuck up.”
I promise you, I have found ways to fuck that up.
Ha. Yeah, the end of my homebrewer “career” was when I had a fault in one of my lines and had two straight batches go bad. So it’s possible. But still, the average person can get a hold of great quality ingredients and make good beer; that isn’t really possible with wine, and distilling is (I’m assuming) pretty tricky.
I’ve never had the room to do a proper set up, but I had a couple of small DIY kits, (which are likely doomed to failure from the start), and those were not good beers.
The second one, which came in a sack, was “ready” just in time for a Halloween party, so I strapped it to myself and went as a keg. Bad beer, pretty good costume.
I brewed some decent stuff using a mix of grains and malt extract. Not the all-grain technique that the purists would demand, but better than the “beer in a box” kits.
I just got to a point where I had played around with a lot of different styles, done a decent job with most of them, but it wasn’t really cost-effective when you factor in labor, and I didn’t want to buy more equipment, so it became easy to give it up when I had a couple of batches not turn out. I gave my equipment away about ten years ago and haven’t really missed it.
Most of the homemade stuff I have had, the rocket fuel was the point. I don’t think I have ever had anything someone has introduced as non-flammable, with the exception of my lovely not really hipster friends who live in Queens

As I think I’ve bored you all with before, once or twice a year I like to buy a whole duck and then make separate meals out of the breasts, legs, and then soup out of the carcass.
Tonight is night one: duck breast with a red wine and cherry sauce, mushroom barley risotto, and kale sauteed with garlic.
Oh, and wine. Most definitely wine.
FYI, Donald, your breasts weren’t big enough for my liking. Next time I’m buying Daisy.
That sounds fantastic
This sounds delicious, but get back to me when there are steamed buns
I don’t have a sauna, sorry.
Definitely not “bore”. Please elaborate. That’s a great project.
Thanks. I have been taking photos this time, and might write it up as a post at some point.
This probably wasn’t a fair representation of people in places like West Virginia at the time, but we’ve now been even further divided by shit, and meth or whatever, so yeah, hillbillies and shit. They’re better at us at music and that’s okay because we’re better at everything else.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NFutge4xn3w
No one is better at voting against their own interests than hillbillies.
Well, when your main interest is guns and keeping them revenoors outta their stills n’ meth labs, I’d say they’re voting their own interests by voting for the party whose basic policy is destroying government and letting everyone with a gun do whatever the fuck they want.
Real hillbillies don’t vote, they just get killed by the revenoo
Here’s probably my one serious comment of the night:
Most people don’t want to vote their own personal interests. The stereotypical urban liberal professional doesn’t — they vote for a party that wants to raise their taxes, and provide services to poorer people. But nobody thinks that’s puzzling; there is no book called “What’s The Matter With San Francisco?”
It’s a bit of a Republican cheap shot to brand Democrats as trying to buy voters by promising to give them stuff, but sometimes Democrats seem surprised that working class voters aren’t won over by appeals that “we’ll help you by sticking it to the rich.”
The GOP knows that the way to reach those voters isn’t to say “we’ll give you stuff,” but to appeal to their values. That’s why the GOP is all culture war, all the time. They know that many voters, when asked to choose between the candidate who wants to give them government benefits but thinks they’re a redneck, and the one who says they’re good Americans who just need to pull themselves up by their bootstraps, but in the meantime let’s show those San Francisco liberals what’s what…
This isn’t a shot at you, WCS. It’s a tough problem, and if I knew how to solve it, the DNC would be paying me a lot of money.
“and if I knew how to solve it, the DNC would be paying me a lot of money.”
You aim for the lowest common denominator, (had a few beers, just took three tries to spell ‘denominator’), and appeal to their fear of ‘the other’ coming for their kids, jobs, guns, culture, womenfolk, whatever, and then sit back. This is neither hard nor pleasant, and it’s guaranteed to never result in any actual productive government, but by and large it will get you elected, at least the way our current system is constructed so as to give outsize influence to a minority of the voting population.
You are 100% right. I know from personal experience that a lot of people will not accept help if you present it as help, even if it comes from someone they know, much less if it comes from anonymous government. So if you approach these people with “I will help you” that is a negative. You have to pitch is so help isn’t help, it’s just a normal thing that the Repubs want to take.
Right — “I will prevent ‘those people’ from getting in the way of you earning what you’re entitled to.” The trick is to change the definition of “those people..”
Zero lies detected. But Jalen gets a pass for expert financial advice.
Well, halftime in español, whether on ESPN, FOX or NBC, is time for credit consolidation ads. It’s the viagra for Hispanic men.
In fact: every Hispanic guy would choose a terrible credit rating over ED.
Yeah, “choose”
“Says here you work for something called…PRPA? Is that right? Anyway, we looked up what that is and, well, holy shit, your credit dropped like a rock! Never seen anything like it.”
😂 close enough (PREPA) 🤣

Country music has sucked shit since they gave up the violin
I mean….it’s always kinda sucked.
I won’t say no to Dolly nor Bluegrass
Willie Nelson, Kris Kristofferson… I am not a country fan, but there is good stuff in there, as with most genres.
Johnny Cash
Yep. The one thing I hold against Johnny Cash is that he covered John Prine’s “Sam Stone,” and decided that he had to neuter the line “Jesus Christ died for nothing’ I suppose” because it conflicted with his faith. You could just not do the damn song. (Though I guess that would have cost Prine some royalties; not sure whether he ever commented on it.)
And then you get into Patty Smith (or smyth or whatever) being controversial for Jesus died for somebodies sins but not mine. And it wasn’t even original but was just the one that caught the public.
You can find a lot of good stuff under what’s now called Americana or Roots, stuff like that. Some very good indie labels, (Bloodshot was a personal favorite, but they’re in some deep shit now), out there doing the Lord’s work.
Robert Earl Keen, Turnpike Troubadours, Jason Isbell, Steve Earlie, Old 97’s, Heartless Bastards, Drive-By-Truckers, come to mind. Not quite country, but closer to it than what is played on the pop country stations these days.
And pop country can eat all the dicks. Sing me another song about the red-white-and-blue flying from the back of your truck as you flee the cold-hearted Big City to go back home to Shitsville and hook back up with that toothless trollop you started banging on your 3rd trip through 8th grade, because I sure can’t get enough of that shit.
Yeah, I like Steve Earle. Not really familiar with the others you mentioned but will check them out.
‘Steve Earlie’
Christ, he’ll beat my ass if he ever sees that.

My cable is on the fritz, so once again I am deprived of seeing Tits. It’s like high school all over again.
By noon on Saturday I had completed all of my (limited) ambitions for this weekend, with the exception of two: drink, and make dick jokes.
Check and check. I love it when a plan comes together.
I have it on good authority that you should consider some sort of herbal treatments.

It’s not throwback Thursday, I was confursed!
The collection of STDs known as Paris Hilton?
Oh shit! HAHAHAHA!
We all should get checked for STD ASAP
And I mean, we already KNEW she liked to RRRRRRRRAM IT!!
