October Under teh Lights! (Late JV NFL Thread)

Fuck a duck, do I ever love October.  Perfect weather, though November is in contention.  Especially once the bugs all fucking die.  But this October starts nervy…

NC State (+6.5) at Clemson (7:30, ABC)

Oh please, God.  Just this once.  National stage, ESPN Gameday, first EVAR Textile Bowl with both sides in the Top Ten.  Can my Wolven Sort FINALLY get over the top?  I mean, Vegas gives us a half point better shot than Kenfucky going into Ole Miss [Ed. note – If my Wolven Sort lose like THAT, I will go on a 5-state killing spree.].  That gives Hippo hope, and as all Evertonians say…It’s the hope that kills you.

LSU (-9) at Auburn (7:00, ESPN)

Oh, the crowd will be a hoot for this’un.  War Damn Eagle HATE their coach, and the team seems to HATE playing football (if the Paedo State game last week is any indication).

West By God Virginia (+9.5) at Texas (7:30, FS1)

A Steerfuckers South loss here would be very, very amusing.  And I think Fuckers du Cousins just might have the upset in ’em.

Arizona State (+25) at Southern Cal (10:30, ESPN)

Weak Tweaker slate, but you can at least flip over here for pervert pleasUres.

/sorry, kind of mailed in the night thread.  I knows.  Hippo be nervous.  But hey, LMAO at Steerfuckers North.  BLOODEYES forevs.

With all respect due the Beatles, Beach Boys, and the Kinks, I honestly think “Surrender” by Cheap Trick is the single greatest pop song of the last 50 years. It’s fucking brutal, beautiful and perfect. Hats off to Rick, Robin, Bun E. and that mysterious Swede on bass. They crafted an absolutely perfect slice of Americana, and I don’t think they’ve ever been properly acknowledged for it. ALL HAIL FUCKING CHEAP TRICK!!!

Fronkenshteen

“”Surrender, but don’t give yourself away”. Fucking genius.

Fronkenshteen

Yes I’m listening to this song on loop until the lesser footy starts

I see the new King is being played like a bitch by a dead PM walking.

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

How does that work? Can’t he just accuse her of some crime and then have her executed?

BrettFavresColonoscopy

Hope hippo didn’t bet that game

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

Rockies pitches have walked five straight Dudleys.

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

It’s like there’s a force field around home plate.

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

Now six of the last seven.

Lux strikes out, but everything he swung at was a ball.

yeah right

Just possibly invented a new cocktail. No measurements, was fucking around, but–

Rye
That maple whiskey Litre mailed me
Spruce bitters
Little bit of Cointreau
Little bit of sweet vermouth

Fell asleep and woke up to WVU’s Tony Danielson being stretched off the field with a head and/or neck injury.

This fucking game.

Gatoraids

was imaging it was Gary Daneilson

yeah right

Took my morning walk today and when I got home I weighed in at 215.

I haven’t seen that number since 2002.

I can wear my skinny ass 36 inch waste button fly Levi’s.

I’m fucking fit!

BrettFavresColonoscopy

Noice!

2Pack

Well done.

BrettFavresColonoscopy

Evening. Had a fantastic fucking meal out and assisted in the creation of a new cocktail at the bar. I think I’ll make myself a drink to celebrate.

herodotus450

The good news is, with the playoff as it is and expanding, even if Clamson and Georgia lose they’d still end up in the playoff anyway, probably, so these potential upsets dont even matter

yeah right

Anyone else ready for 6:00 AM football tomorrow?

Better believe my ass is going to bed early.

Woo!

Mr. Ayo

Absolutely not. I plan to get up early enough to watch the two recordings of the MotoGP and F1 races before the proper 10am (noon DFO standard time) footy kickoffs.

litre_cola

I am in. That’s when the Manchester derby happens too.

yeah right

Bet your ass I’ll be there too.

Gumbygirl

I’m going to take a Benadryl as soon as Poirot is over.

yeah right

I could never coach in the SEC because fuck horizontal stripes.

Mr. Ayo

GUYS! GALS! ALL OTHERS!

We are on the precipice of the greatest announcement in professinal sport history.

That’s right, the KRAKEN are about to unveil with no sense of self reflection the most crigne-worthy mascot of all major sports teams.

herodotus450

An Amazon Box?

Mr. Ayo

Hmm, not delivered on time. You might be right.

Mr. Ayo

JFC. Glad I skipped this unveiling in person,.

It’ a … troll?

Mr. Ayo

Sigh. I don’t know man. I can neither define it nor deny it.

Ridding ourselves of Russ seemed like a positive move. And then this befalls us Seattle fans.

The only true answer is don’t. Don’t try, don’t put out new things, just continue sucking.

Eat at Redmond Arbys.

What…the fuck?

Mr. Ayo

A tribute to the Fremont Bridge Troll, which, whatever. Fuck off man.

yeah right

Release the Kraken!

Mr. Ayo

Sea Troll is the mascot.

Literally trolling the fans. Glad I missed this.

Can’t wait for the opportunity to punch the mascot’s stupid head.

litre_cola

The line in Mizzou v Georgia was 30.5

Mr. Ayo

I was minus 30.5 to score on myself and yet here we are.

herodotus450

Georgia losing, late, against Missouri

Horatio Cornblower

LSU kid fumbling late in game during hurricane season. Guess we know who’s filming Brian Kelly’s practices from the scissor lift next week.

Game Time Decision

Vancouver goes from their goalie almost turning it over in their own end to a goal at the other end in about 20 seconds wow

litre_cola

Guess that sport!

Mr. Ayo

Lesser footy or ice footy? I’ll take “Lesser”

herodotus450

B-b-b-but Mr. Potter, I d-d-d-don’t wanna kick a field goal

Doktor Zymm

We should all go to small English villages and bet on hound races

TheRevanchist

Put Hippo into a ring with an ocelot guarding a huge pile of pills. I would bet on Hippo.

yeah right

Always bet on the hound who just took a dump.

Pro tip.

blaxabbath

Does anyone have experience with the Mighty Vibe music player?

Doktor Zymm

That doesn’t sound like a music player

blaxabbath

It’s advertised as a shuffle with Bluetooth it only does Spotify and Amazon music but that’s where I have my Playlist.

herodotus450

Says it has 3 different power levels and 12 different patterns, sounds like music to me!

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

HUSBAND: Honey, did you order a “mighty vibe” from Amazon?

WIFE: Yeah…it’s, uh, a music player.

yeah right

My granddaughter plays the vibraphone in the high school band does that count?

litre_cola

So on my way home from working at the resto on Thursday I had CBS Sports radio on with JR or some other talking head. He was talking about Tua and his injuries, and the expert they had on was David Chao?!?!?! What the fuck? Isn’t he being sued for his famoUs heart needle???

The Maestro

I fucking WARNED y’all.

Doktor Zymm

That can’t be the ONLY thing he’s currently being sued for

blaxabbath

This is no different than real news.

Sadly

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

I don’t think he was responsible for the punctured lung needle – it was his replacement. As you know, the NFL is a NEXT MAN UP league, even when it comes to medical malpractice.

I’ve picked him several times. Surley, he must be flattered, if not impressed.

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

My understanding is that you also flicked him off several times.

Apparently this is the one-year anniversary.

I hate even acknowledging the existence of advertisements, because that means they’re working, but I would respek the Dr. Pepper Corporation a little if they had a commercial about the acrimony over student loan forgiveness in their Pleasantville-esque world.

Seem like very fine people on both sides.

Have you seen the movie “Furioza’, about Polish soccer hooligans? Grim stuff, good movie.

litre_cola

Oh I will now!

blaxabbath

What an interesting land.

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

One of many contrasts, clearly.

The Maestro

Having finished my two pounds of wings, I am now suddenly remembering why I never order two pounds at the bar anymore.

Horatio Cornblower

Lay in plenty of reading material for tomorrow.

Doktor Zymm

The NFL apparently paid money to Amazon to play a commercial hyping how concerned they are about player safety during the show “Hidden Villages”.

They probably should have used that money to hire competent neurologists instead.

Gatoraids

cheaper to have incompetent ones that are easy to blame and find liable

herodotus450

Just like me running into the busty blonde from apartment 302 in the laundry, running into the kicker is never just an accident.

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

“Ha ha, guess we’re on the same schedule, huh?”

[sees Horatio run through the clubhouse wearing nothing but a UConn bandana wrapped around his wingwang]

[checks the score of the UConn/Fresno St. game]

“Ah. Well done, Huskies!”

TheRevanchist

Fresno State is missing both team captains. If UConn didn’t win, they should be sent back down to D3 or high school.

Horatio Cornblower

Buddy, UConn has a true freshman at QB, lost their top 2-3 WRs earlier this season, and is on their 3rd or 4th string RB. And their O-line is a mess due to other injuries.

Whatever else is going on in NCAA football this year nobody out-injures UConn.

Horatio Cornblower

I am, however, not arguing that UConn should not be relegated. They absolutely should. Connecticut is not and never will be football state. They lost a ton of money the year they went to the Fiesta Bowl ffs.

My understanding is that Fresno St. was favored by 24 points, captains or not.

Horatio Cornblower

They were. The most enthusiastic UConn Twitter types thought UConn would cover.

UConn’s defense played out of their minds, offense got their shit together after 45 minutes of bumblefuckery, and Fresno State clearly wasn’t doing well having flown 3,000 miles to play in a windy, wet, cold, (and empty), East Hartford.

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

Cool, cool. Listen, I don’t want to make you feel like I’m avoiding eye contact, but…would you mind putting some clothes on?

Horatio Cornblower

Sorry, I had to use the bandana to wipe the tears of joy from eyes. I now realize I’ve made this awkward.

BrettFavresColonoscopy

Fuck a duck? With those corkscrew penises? No thank you.

blaxabbath

ASU is an absolute train wreck. They watched this Herm firing barrel at them for like 28 months and, when they had to pull the trigger in season, they’ve got no plan but an ex AZ HS coach who is RB coach and, oh yeah, the AD who has fucked up every other program and is solely responsible for the football team going up in flames AT THE EXACT MOMENT AGGRESSIVE MERITORIOUS REALIGNMENT IS THREATENING THE SAFETY OF THE CONFERENCE AND FORCING EVERY INSTITUTION TO LOOK OUT FOR NUMBER ONE — that guy is Herm’s old agent and will need to go next. And then the school President is some good old boy who ain’t getting out of the way and isn’t up to hiring the new AD and/or Head Coach.

It’s really just JV Arizona Cardinals over there — except the Cards have rapist educated MAGA and ASU enrolls poor dumb violent weak MAGA.

Gatoraids

ASU needs penicillin buts its probably too late

The Maestro

Hey – remember it can always get worse. They could be Texas, you know.

Gatoraids

Pat MacAfee cut off King Lazerface cuz of his poor connection

blaxabbath

There is one member of royalty who gets lineage.

The Maestro

Evening, folks.

I am proposing a path to bipartisan reconciliation for political stripes across the world:

Government subsidies to bring back cheap chicken wings once again.

I miss 5 cent wing nights. Hell, I miss 25 cent wing nights. I’d be willing to negotiate quite a bit to bring those back again.

The Maestro

Yes, I am awaiting two pounds of wings I’m currently baking in the oven. Yes, they’re done in 10 minutes. Yes, I’m starving.

Gatoraids

Just found a new Korean Fried Chicken place nearby, my doctor will not be happy. Not cheap but worth it

blaxabbath

I love Asian food. But I can barely knock out some Asian braised chicken thighs (or we will find out in a few). How they can get Korean BBQ level flavor I can only guess.

ESPN2 has Pat McAfee doing a college football Manningcast for the NC State Clemson game. This should be interesting.

In response to me not knowing Scott Frost was fired, could someone tell me when the next autogyro to Siam is? I have a letter that I need to get to the Prussian consulate.
