You know, so that the soccery types can talk about the soccer. And the footbally types can talk football-there everyone’s happier than the proverbial clam. (Where the hell did that phrase come from?, I wonder)
To The Games!
Broncos/Panthers:
Hey, Carolina is parading yet another sub-average qb out on to the field today! Sam Darnold is apparently being re-evaluated before he hits free agency but that’s pure silliness, methinks. Desperate teams do desperate things.
Bucs/Browns:
Enjoy Jacoby Brissett while you still can. The Masseuse Abuser returns next week and the length of the suspension and the workings of the schedule make everyone with a working brain roll their eyes to infinity.
Ravens/Jags:
Baltimore has won four in a row and is looking more and more like the team was supposed to look at the outset of the season. During the streak the D has given up a shade over 14 points although Lamar has not thrown for over 240 yards-it’s a team effort thingy.
Texans/Fins:
Not much to say here-Houston is re-arranging deck chairs on their sinking ship, tossing Kyle Allen into the mix. Looks like the Fins get a freebie here and will strengthen their lead in the AFC East, given that the Pats lost and the Jets have problems on O.
Bears/Jets:
Yet another team that is switching things up at the qb spot and finally, a White guy catches a break! Credit goes to Saleh, (peace be with you) he knows his D is good enough to keep him in games and there is enough raw talent on O. He just needs to find a guy to unlock it, though he doesn’t have many options.
Bengals/Titans:
Ja’Marr was practicing this week and my fantasy team in money league was hopeful but the scuttlebutt now says that he won’t be playing. Trey Burk finally got unstuck last week and plunked down 111 yards receiving. Just what the Titans have been looking for-a weapon in the passing game that can do awful damage on play-action. I don’t imagine any team would want to play them in the post-season.
Enjoy.
YUGE stop by Borjan!!!
In completely unrelated news… the Nathan Peterman Experience is having a reunion show!!!!
(Trevor Siemian hurt in warmups.)
I told him that branch didn’t look that strong.
oh that will be DELIGHTFUL
Damn, that was a helluva lazy tackle by Buchanan.
I’m not used to watching mens world cup soccer and having a team to cheer for
Currently over Canada:
At least Beckie cleans up really nice.
On our side of the
pondglacier, I can’t decide whether Jenny Taft is hot or just cute.My vote is for cute. She needs to show more shoulder to increase hotness.
TRUE HIPPO STORY – I have NEVAR seen Super Troopers
You should remedy that right meow.
I still have to watch that Katla or face scotchy’s quiet disappointment
Scotchy’s quiet disappointment is code gonna get stabbed, right?
I get why they aren’t for everyone. If you like dumb humour it’s good. If not then they are 90 minutes of “that’s not funny”
I loved Borat but hated Dumb and Dumber. So this is a total coin flip.
I’m the other way around but find Borat annoying so that gets in the way of finding it funny
I feel like you owe it to litre_cola to at least give it a try.
My hometown is very, VERY Italian and Croatian and this place just exploded. I don’t even need to check the score do I?
The Canadian defense has fallen apart.
Borjan ain’t wearing his famoUs pants neither
Halftime can’t come soon enough
Double oof.
god FUCKING DAMNIT
Well this is turning “The Americans have burned York” ugly now.
Is Luka Modric a chetnik? Well, we haven’t found anyone to disprove it just yet.
Oof.
Credit where credit’s due, Litre called Attiba for being too slow for this game several minutes ago on the horrible bird app.
Man knows his Canadian soccer.
Saw it coming. Past his prime.
Pants with another save
-Litre_cola
fuck
Double fuck
Poop.
“Long Into The Box: The Ballsofsteelandfury Story”
Canadian viewers after the Croatia goal was called off for offsides.
Nice shoulders on that Canadia supporter just then, hope she doesn’t get be-headed for her attire choice
Thank fuck for offsides calls.
Get a 2nd and the Ustase will collapse.
I think the US will have a decent chance against Iran as long as their keeper can, unlike the Welsh keeper, keep from launching a flying knee strike on a defender with a clear chance at goal.
Earlier shopping at a nearby villa. Can’t believe I’m almost done this year. I’m admiring my hustle.
Canada having great success in the “dangerous area” per an announcer who has clearly never had access to this much better line:
There appears to be some sort of tripping contest afoot…
Let’s go
I bet she lives in Niagara Falls.
She does! I got her phone number last night.
Mom? Wtf
Croat defenders are panicky.
Crowd is very loud-I knew Wakezilla had a big mouth.
It should also be noted that Canada just won the Davis Cup tennis final. Back in the 80s, when we were happy to have a guy crack the top 50 in singles, I never would have thought this was possible.
“Did somebody say Canada? And tennis? And crack?” – Matthew Perry
I saw his book in the bookstore the other day. Almost bought it, but then thought about what he’d spend the royalties on and decided not to.
So on the Canadian goal #17 is clearly offsides, but plays no role in the goal. Is this what they mean by “passive offsides”? Because I genuinely do not know.
What is a catch?
It’s the maple syrup coursing thru their veins-that’s why Canada is perkier than the Dirty Croats.
As a big fan of maple syrup I can say that I have never found that it made me speed up.
You’ve got to drink it straight out of the bottle, none of this pancake business.

ALPHONSO DAVIES IS BEAUTIFUL AND PERFECT
GOUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUAAAAAALLLLLLLLLL!
Holy fuck.
FUCK CROATIA CHUH CHUH
OH! FUCK YES CANADA!!
Canada Loves Quickies!
And their apoloUgiues after are second to none.
“I mean, you’re so incredibly beautiful I couldn’t help myself” usually works, I’ve been told.
Love the black kits so there’s that.
Do you think any of the guys on the Canadian National Team know where I could find my high school girlfriend from the Niagara Falls area?
I miss her.
I’m like 2 hours away, will go ask my buddy out there if he knows her. What’s her name?
Becky. I don’t know her last name though, so that probably won’t help much. Oh well, at least you tried.
In 2018 Russia made an impressive and unexpected run in the World Cup. In Russia.
In 2022 several Arabic teams have impressive and unexpected wins over established powers.
Is is home field inspiration? Is it FIFA?
Totally home field thing
/GTD’s bank account now has a deposit from “AFIF”
That women’s shorts do not fit and cannot possibly be comfortable.
Agreed. Here at DFO we are all about comfort. She should change into some comfortable lounge pants, and then take those off.
Noooooo…..
A warm-up scalp for the Sword of Allah!
There are (IIRC) some playing time-based incentives for Baker, Baker, the Turnover Maker. No reason to roll out his corpse given his performance level.
Knowing we could beat Belgium and seeing them currently losing to Morocco is so frustrating.
It must be. I look forward to hugging each other in sympathy after the U.S. collapses against Iran.
“Collapse” assumes they’ll ever get the lead.
ruh roh, Belch…
A Chuck and Buck sequel for Mike White!
Delightful.
I’m currently at Khalifa International Stadium and that modesty dress rule is thankfully out the window.
All the Croatian men look like white supremacists while most of the Croatian women look absolutely incredible. Holy shit.
Why such an uptight nation would name a stadium after a porn star is completely beyond me. Hypocrites!
Fun fact: It’s designed in the shape of her mouth and when you enter, a gag is heard
I suppose I’d have to have seen more of her films to get that joke.
Better do some research.
Lying on my bunk watching with the Telemundo feed on my Hulu app. Suddenly thought, “Let me just check FS1. Maybe they have ONE broadcast team without an American announcer.” Clicked over. First voice I hear is an American female. She says, “I have a friend in Morocco, and she said they have flags everywhere.”
Inmediatamente regresé a Telemundo.
