Hello there fellow DFO’er. Hope you’re well today. And thanks for coming back to see last weeks comments of the week as decided by my brain. There’s no reason as to why some comments make it and others don’t. Seriously. There isn’t.
This weeks cheesy motivational quote is:
The trouble is, you think you have time [in bed].
Jack Kornfield
also said by everyone most mornings
Just five more minutes. mom
As a reminder, Sunday comments stand alone and Monday comments will go on the next week’s post.
Note that during the offseason, I’ll probably look at the Sunday posts.
Without further ado, here are the comments of the week.
THESE HIPPO THOUGHTS I CALL THEM THE LAST WORDS OF ASHLII BABBITT BECAUSE MOST OF IT IS INCOMPREHENSIBLE SOUNDS BUT IT AIN’T GONNA CHANGE WHAT HAPPENED ANYWAYS SO WHAT’S ON TONIGHT?

I should have realized this on my own, but hey – stupid. I just read, and it floored me – the Josh McDaniels Raiders are the only 0-3 team in the NFL.

As annoying as they can be, at least they’re trying to provide actual insight. It never ceases to amaze me that networks pay former star players huge money to say things that I could hear from the guy next to me at the sports bar. “What a great throw by [insert star QB] That’s why he’s [the goat/one of the best in the National Football League].”

Wow — from horrible to even worse. To save money, Brett Favre suggested using PRISON LABOR to build the volleyball facility that was built using misspent funds intended for poor families in Mississippi, the poorest state in the country. https://t.co/WuVU0Jz1Lm pic.twitter.com/PRaaqoYOSD

Guttersnipe was so good I just had to read it again.
It sucks that I had to work and couldn’t comment properly. A couple of questions:
A) wtf is 5-pin? I’ve never heard of that.
2) brothel? Was that of the legal or illegal variety?

I can see the t-shirt one leading to a lot of misunderstandings.
Also fun, quite a few government buildings in the Caribbean have pineapples on them, so I really kind of hope some horny tourists wander in on the regular

Our scene opens as we pan the room, coming to rest on Horatio, who is in his underwear, (it’s seen better days), trying owlishly to get the sense from a Superboy comic, (a shiny new quarter to the first person who IDs the novel I just stole that line from).
/Balls bursts excitedly into the room
Balls: Horatio! Horatio! You’re an attorney, right? You can witness my signatures on this application to the Space Marines, right? Wouldya, wouldya, wouldya?
Horatio: (sighs) (doesn’t look up) You know that section says ‘aural stimulation’, right? Not, you know (makes obscene gesture)
Balls: (tearing up) It does? Aww, man. I thought for sure…(trails off while tearing up application) (wanders out of room)
Horatio: (looking up). That’s the third fucking time this week. We have got to get Armedandhammered to start putting ‘aural’ in all caps and bold.

You know what? I think after 45 years, I’m going to walk away from the NFL. The Tua thing is proving to be a bridge too far. This is nothing more than a criminal organization. I don’t buy merch, tickets, or even RedZone anymore. But after what happened to that young man Sunday and Thursday, this league is no longer welcome even on television screens in my home. I’d still like to hang around here if I can, but I’ll be driving Uber on Sundays now, and ignoring this national embarrassment for the remaining years of my life.

I thought “Washington Football Team” was actually a pretty good name, and I liked just the number on the side of the helmet. It’s my hometown team but Dan Snyder has completely repulsed me away from them.
And many people have said, “Commanders” sounds like a fictional NFL team from a bad sports movie, which sort of suits the reality of this organization.
