Is the world still seven kinds of fucked? YOU BETTER BELIEVE IT. Good think there’s Lesser Footy. Everton overcame the runaway freight train that is Boreham Wood, so the Toffees are in the FA Cup Flacco Eight, and one win away from Wembley. Strange days.
But for the Prem, we kick off bright and early with Jesse Marsch’s Leeds (yes that will feel strange for a few weeks, minimum) taking on always unpredictable Leicester (7:30, USA). Hey, at least it’s something to do/watch. New manager bump and all that (though I am skeptical).
Five matches in the 10:00 window, but ALL on Peacock only. Fuck’s sake. Norwich/Bees for those who like to watch car crashes. Wolves/Palace likely your best bet for actual footbal.
Spotlight Dance sucks ass, unless Fronk’s Hammers suddenly find some form. Otherwise, you’ll just have 90 minutes of grown men sucking off Jurgen Klopp (12:30, NBC). A nap should be mighty tempting..
Sunday Funday doubleheader looks tasty, with Moose Hornets/King’s Afrikan Water Pistols (9:00, USA) leading us into the almost-always-bananapuddings Manchester Derby (11:30, USA). Coverage of the latter will be unbearable if the Redshite win the day before. YES, I am still all about the Cityzens winning the title, regardless of last week’s rogering-by-VAR at Goodison.
Speaking of, me Toffees are away to Spurs for Monday Night Footy (3:00, USA). Will Dele Alli have his vengeance? We sure as fuck need the point(s). Who knows what version of Tottenham shows up.
Enjoy the matches, and/or whatever else is part of your Sabado Gigante.

Boy goes into 28 day inpatient tomorrow followed by halfway house which is on rehab campus, hopefully followed by sober housing. Went through his room and found 3 empt handles of vodka, two empty fifths of rum, pomegranate liquor, .5 gallon of cider, 12 wine bottles which includes the last 4 bottles of her most fav wine.
Thanks for all the support, this has been draining and incredibly painful, and your words have meant a lot to me.
Wish Tabula was around to tell you what he’s going through.
RTD and I reached out to him but no response.
Crap. Really worried about him.
I am too. He didn’t even show up for the Owl.
Anyone in touch with Viva?
I’m praying for healing and peace of mind.
Having been through rehab and currently in a sober living house, I sympathize. He’s going to be alright as long as he’s willing. There is a way out. Much love.
Very glad that you found him a place to help him so quickly.
Feel free to vent away here. Whatever we can do to help, let us know
Tell him if he screws up, you have friends online that like you better than him, and if he breaks your heart again, they will ensure his body will be found scattered across several states.
We also send our best wishes for a speedy recovery. 🙂

My family just lost our matriarch as my grandmother passed away after a long life. Its not completely sad as she lived into her 90s, and was blind, deaf and suffering from dementia; its less a loss and more of a release. She’s now showing Sheamus my baby pictures and sharing embarrassing stories of my youth.
[raises glass to Redshirt’s grandmother]
Seamus: “Those pics truly are wonderful. Have you ever read from the book of American Idiot?”
Grandma: “So then I told him if he doesn’t find himself a nice Christian lady to settle down with, I’m going to have to find one for him myself.”
Sheamus: “Yeah, that guy really needs to get laid.”
Grandma: “That’s what I said!”
My Yia Yia is going through the same thing, minus the deaf and blind thing. She’s been trapped in her own body for the last six years. The only thing she can do by herself now is eat, and she eats more than I do. I wish she would just let go, but her heart is too strong.
Best wishes to you and your family amigo.
Same with my grandma. Their mind goes before their sprit is ready to go.
She saw some shit in her day! My Grandma died at 96, she was a bag of cats until the very end. I miss her.
Shit. Looks like we’re losing Bowen long-term. Our offense is proper fucked now, Tommy.
I didn’t even check score. Figured you’d let the Clubhouse know if Moyes-y and crew did a good, against all odds.

With everything going on in today’s world, you need to be a little more specific.
Declan Rice is OUT for Rum Ham. Rest of Hammers starters are exhausted, and have an away tie vs Sevilla mid-week. Liverpool might steamroll today.

Ah shit I put my bet on the Seydou Legacy Athletique Club of French Guiana, not the Seydou Legacy Athletique Club of Guinea.
Don’t be hard on yourself-it happens more often than you’d think.

Up early for a Saturday because we have to send the boy to rehab soonest before we kill him. He fell off the wagon, rolled down the hill, and right into the liquor store. Broke into the liquor cabinet drank all the white liquor and while the wife and I went out with friends to celebrate my birthday and he drank several expensive bottles of the wife’s wine (like a total of 500 dollars worth). He needs intensive and expensive help and we are tired of being prisoners in our own house. Need some positive vibes sent my way, my imaginary internet friends.
My dude. I am sorry for your tough time. He will get through it but it will be a long road. All the best to the Hammered’s and 500 USD in White wine is A LOT!
Lol, more like Sauterne, some Chaute Neuf De Pape, (all spellings aproximate) and a few others like that. I have now seen my wife really, really mad and I want to avoid that in the future.
If Sauternes then hell yeah it is expensive. The noble rot on the grapes make it special and pricey.
I just looked at my wine fridge and said to 4 year old Deci that I would sell him if any harm came to those bottles.
He’s fortunate to have a Dad like you, in that you resisted the urge to shoot him (being Armed and all). Hang in as best as you can.
You can and will get through this. Just take it day by day, hour by hour. Totally a cliche, I know but its the way to make it work. And there are no home runs here. The goal is to just make today just a tiny bit better than yesterday, so you want a whole bunch of run it out infield singles. And while day over day it’s going to feel like there’s no progress, when you look, back a few weeks ago you will see it’s getting better. And it will get better.
Also, get help for yourself and your wife. Like professional help. The stress and strain mentally with this stuff cannot be overstated. And that’s on top of the other shit that’s already going on in this world to stress you out.
You got this man.
/dick joke
//edited to be clearer
This is really good advice. I have a friend who went through this a few years ago, and it was super hard on him and his wife. They blamed themselves and then blamed one another and the truth was it was a shitty situation that wasn’t anyone’s fault. Addiction sucks and is messy and it’s heartbreaking to see your kids fuck up but you can’t help him if you aren’t taking care of yourselves.
I hope you can get him help. He needs to be in an inpatient program. After that it’s up to him. When you can get him to listen tell him from a friend that knows, sobriety is worth it. Sobriety will cure his illness.
I’m really sorry to hear about your son. Alcoholism is a stone bitch, and I hope your family can have peace.
Hoo boy. Best place for him, and for you right now. Here’s hoping this time it works.
I’m setting up a Go Fund Me account to help this poor Ukrainian boy escape the terrors of his war-torn country. Please help! Donate $50 or $100 to help young Boryklyslav find peace and freedom in the west. Send your money to me and I will ensure it gets deposited properly.
