Look, We’re a Buncha Drunks That Get Our Wires Crossed Thursday Open Thread

I remember a time when I did Thursday Night Open Threads on the regular.

A Few Trenchant Thought Thingys:

-the need to talk about/weigh in on The Slap is the silliest thing ever.

-The Sillycuse basketball program is in freefall and there’s nothing anyone can do about it other than Jim Boeheim. So nothing will be done.

-I beg of you, don’t draft Devante Adams next year.

-Like it or not, Pat McAfee is on a certain trajectory. He’s the perfect, “I’m gonna say it like it is!” guy while wearing wifebeaters and regularly interviewing reporters completely beholden to the NFL powers that be.

-I miss Chris Liss on the Rotowire podcast

-How do you build a completely shitty team and at the same time  send it to Salary Cap Hell? Ask Dave Gettleman.

-The Bengalis are headed right back to The Bowl next year.

-That is if they can get past the AFC West. The worst team in that division is looking at 9 fooking wins.

-I mean, it’s going to be the Girlcocks vs Paige Buckets, right?

-Man City will win it. (Hippo has foretold this way back in 2037)

-The “Fantasy Sports” channel that I listen to featured a ‘live’ 15 loser/nerd person, 30 round baseball draft. Amazing.

-Cole Beasley is working out with Baker Mayfield. I hope things don’t work out for them.

-UNC/Duke this weekend. Jesus fuckball Christ!

-Wait. Is Bill Self the least hate-able coach in action this weekend?

-I’m done. Give it your best in the comments.

We just watched a couple more Our Flag Means Death’s. Digging it! Got my stitches out today, yay! Fancy scar, I need to come up with a better story than book bag strap cyst.

I’ve got a big scar on my shoulder, where I ran into an open door on a fusebox. Not breakers, fusebox. It got infected. I tell anyone who asks that I got in a knife fight with a biker.

My daughter had to finish watching The Hunting Ground this evening, for a class, so we got to watch it as well. It definitely sold me on the notion that Jameis Winston is a rapist scumbag. It didn’t make you a big fan of TKE, ΔKE, or ΣAE either.

However, I had never heard the saying, “ΣAE – Sexual Assault Expected,” before now, which made me laugh. I do wonder why girls still go to parties there. Maybe my daughter can clue me in on it, although from what I can tell frat boys are just barely above guys wearing MAGA hats, and are to be avoided.

My nephew might go to college at Bucknell, which apparently has a pretty prevalent frat scene. For a lot of colleges that are in isolated towns, it sounds like there’s just no social scene whatsoever outside of the frats, which is a serious bummer.

Greetings from Vegas! The picture didn’t come out but earlier I drove by the That’s My Raiders’ production office.

Yes and also yes.

Going to Vegas Sunday, returning Tuesday. Will either be refreshing or ruin me forever and I’m okay with both outcomes.

I’m waiting for a season of Survivor that takes place in a desolate place like this. Either that or a desert, the arctic or as homeless people in New York City.

“For today’s Immunity Challenge, you must clear the tracks without touching the live rail or getting hit by a passing subway train and grab the flag of your tribe’s color from the coked-out man mumbling racist words and what he knows about the JFK assassination.”

Mrs. Sharkbait put on the new season of Bridgerton. I never thought I would hear a chamber music version of Stay Away by Nirvana, yet here we are.

I was the same way when I heard a big band version of “Down With the Sickness” during “Dawn of the Dead”. About half the song was my brain going “No, that can’t really be what we’re hearing. We’re having a stroke. That’s the only logically explanation I can think of.”

I made her rewind the montage a couple times in order to figure it out and prove I wasn’t going insane.

Youngest loves Paul Anka covering a bunch of songs. He does a pretty good version of Smells Like Teen Spirit

I’m having a massive issue with the USPS and you’ll be shocked to know their customer service is not helping. Here’s a direct quote from the most recent interaction, this time via twitter dm because phone and in person didn’t cut it:

Let the parcel do what it will do and thank you for contacting USPSHelp.

Your parcel is on the path to knowing the sound of one hand clapping and you’re complaining? This one is on you.

At least your parcel didn’t fuck off to Australia.

Yet.

I’m having that with H&R Block. So far my taxes has been turned into three tax professionals in three days. I guess Unemployment, E-Trade and a W-2G was just too much for the experts; they’re gonna need to call in a guru.

How do you build a completely shitty team and at the same time send it to Salary Cap Hell? Ask Dave Gettleman.

You can also ask AJ Preller.

(If Eric Hosmer goes missing, do they have to pay his salary? Asking for an Elder God.)

Eric Hosmer IS the Elder God in San Diego. Let’s give him another 20 mil.

Dear Low Commander,

If you hate Hosmer so much, why don’t you kill him?

Big LOL of the Week goes to the ESPN Hockeyed Standings which have added the “-e” option to four teams to signify that they have been eliminated from the playoffs. Wow thanks espn, without that I might have been deluded to think the Candidiennes could make up 30 points and 9 spots in the standings in 3 weeks!
