Your “Wee Bit of Soccer and Wee Bit of Football” Open Thread

France and Poland should be interesting for a little while, right?

To The Games!

Steelers/Falcons:

These teams don’t play each other too often but the end result is along the lines you’d imagine-Pitt leads this series 14-2-1. The Pickens goes down to Georgia for the first time since he won the National Championship last year.

Broncos/Ravens:

Since they dumped Chubb Denver has allowed a 100 yard rusher in each of their games and has a grand total of two sacks. All of the Broncos wr’s are compromised, some by injury, others by sickness and all by having Wilson as their qb.

Packers/Bears:

With Qaron at qb Green Bay was always a dangerous road team but this year they’re 1-5. Fields is back after a brief hiatus and despite getting a full practice in on Friday this seems too soon. Protect your assets Bears, you’re 3-9!

Browns/Texans:

There’ll be far too attention paid to this game and everything about it makes me feel icky. Enough said.

Jets/Vikings:

The Sauce vs The Jefferson, that’s more like it. I seem to recall qb White having a great game as a fill-in last year (was it the year before?) and then crapping the bed on his next outing. Hope that’s not the case this time around.

Commies/Giants:

Chase Young is back but so is Daniel Bellinger! He’s the rook tight end that was progressing nicely until someone stuck a finger in his eye and called it macaroni. Seriously, any and all help is needed in the Giants pass game.

Titans/Eagles:

Tricky matchup here given that the Titans are #3 vs the run but a dreadful 31st against the pass. Are you thinking that Smith and Brown are set up to have an excellent day? Sure seems like it. “Odds Say Yes”. The draft pick that Tennessee got in return for Brown was converted into Trey Burks who has racked up 181 yards in the last two games.

Do your thing.

Q-aron can go yell “I ruined your draft position!!” at the home crowd today.

King Hippo

his mental baseline is just so low, testing is hard

clint greasewood

NFC South is straight ass.

Doktor Zymm

Swamp ass

King Hippo

but not NARROW!

ballsofsteelandfury

Not that there’s anything wrong with that!

litre_cola

Agreed.

Spur
Doktor Zymm

I would be mighty chuffed if one of these times instead of doing a tough guy arms crossed pose after getting a sack a dude did the I Dream of Jeannie arms crossed nod wish granting thing. Similar, yet a world apart

Redshirt

The Safety Gods have enacted judgment upon the Browns!

Doktor Zymm

I’m disappointed in myself for not thinking to pick up the 500s D in Vodka League

ThePirateSloth

There’s been an entire season of Fire Country on CBS? It’s an actual show? People watch it?

King Hippo

quite the metamorphosis today

King Hippo

SEE, Donks can ruin ANOTHER fansbase’s season, too!

Doktor Zymm

It’s really nice to see Fields getting a chance at one of the rarest honors ever to grace a Chicago QB, that is kicking some GB buttock and basking in the admiration the city usually saves for RBs and Linebackers

Dunstan

You know, the Geico gekko is kind of a dick. Bringing your new neighbors a plate of cookies isn’t all that nice when you use it as an opportunity to pitch them insurance.

This has been another edition of “Dunstan Takes Commercials Too Seriously.” On our next episode: why can’t the Trix rabbit get a bowl of fucking cereal, is that too much to ask?

Doktor Zymm

I make a special note to avoid products that approve jerkwad advertising campaigns

litre_cola

Haven’t eaten at Wendys in a long time due to a bad campaign back in the day that I can’t even remember.

Dunstan

I still don’t understand why that Quizno’s campaign with the disgusting creatures was considered successful.

Redshirt

Thank you! I’ve been saying that for years, with him and Lucky the Leprechaun hoarding his Lucky Charms from hungry kids!

Gumbygirl

Sigh. Because TRIX IS FOR KIDS!

Doktor Zymm

Kids are baby goats! Nawt these pathetic human children!

NOT ALL HEROES WARE CAPES smh

Watson with the not so happy ending.

Turns out you dont have to hand it to him

AA has Redzone as part of their free in-flight entertainment, which is pretty awesome, but I watched a whole 30 second ad to get some free wifi just so I could come here and make a poop joke about the Browns’ unfortunate case of loose matter in their runs.

Y’all are great

King Hippo

oh no Treylon Burks tweaked his back

FACK, he is on me Vodka squadoo

King Hippo

Have to respect how he held onto such a tough catch, even while dying!

Fronkenshteen

Him ded?

King Hippo

oh yeah, out like a light

Strawberry Fields FOOORRRRREEVVVVAAAHHH

Writes game over in cheese curds

litre_cola

Delicious.

King Hippo

They Might Be Giants, but They Also Might Be Fading

Doktor Zymm

They are Constantinople!

King Hippo

Have the 500s ever been America’s Team like they is today? Pretty solid for a non-existent franchise.

Sharkbait

Also there was a union jack and a Fulham flag in the parking lot for the game. Easily the best flags I saw in the tailgate

litre_cola

A Mighty Whitey flag?

Mrs. Cornblower would steal it for me. Allgedly.

Sharkbait

Next to Hungary and Rutgers too

litre_cola

The Rutgers Hungary flag is a strange combo. New Jerseyite who is really into Viktor Orban?

ballsofsteelandfury

Hungary and Rutgers go together like peanut butter and chocolate.

Sharkbait

Checking in from section 121 The gmen are down 3-0 already and have put sharkette to sleep.

Nice view!

Good morning. Today we are all are Senegalese.

Not all of us! IT’S COMING HOME!

TheRevanchist

Not if they lose. I only support winners.

ThePirateSloth

YAY It’s snowing!

Spur

Nice pair of knees you got there Watson. Be a shame if a Texan player went low on you…..

Redshirt

My plan to get Ryan Day fired is proceeding almost as planned. I was hoping for consecutive Michigan beat downs but Georgia putting up a basketball score works just as well.

herodotus450

Urban Meyer aint walking back through that door, bub

Redshirt

At this point, I’ll take Earle Bruce’s ghost. At least his players put forth an effort.

Spur

Ryan Day and his terrible horrible no good very bad bowl selection day

TheRevanchist

So, basically, Georgia vs Michigan for the final game? I’m good with that.

Redshirt

TCU will put up a better fight than OSU. If OSU comes out as unmotivated as they did two Saturdays ago, those coaches and players are in the wrong sport.

Spur

Vegas Bowl can be the Trojans vs Gamecocks?

Redshirt

TCU’s QB is still too tired from carrying his team on the last drive to jump up and celebrate.

Redshirt

Mixon still has “Back Problems” (TM Dolphins Medical, 2022) and is a gametime decision. Adjust lineups accordingly.

Redshirt

If its takes this long to announce 4 teams and 2 runners-up, just imagine how long it’ll take to announce 12 teams and 4+ runners-up?

Spur

What would it take to get Mbappé to immigrate to the USA?

Redshirt

I’d make a comment regarding Trump and the Statue of Liberty, but the Secret Service would be knocking on my door three seconds after I click “Post Comment”.

Gumbygirl

Which one of the shitty football pregame shows do yinz watch? CBS? Fox? NFL Network? Why do they all suck so much?!!

Spur

I contemplate how I ended up here in life while cooking breakfast (and sometimes Fox because it rolls into Redzone)

Game Time Decision

None as they all suck

King Hippo

I just have the RedZone muzak on

ballsofsteelandfury

I like Charissa Thompson but she’s only on in the super early Fox pregame.

Spur

TCU better be in. Am ok with watching Ohio State get stomped again. King of the Cupcakes never knows when to go away.

Redshirt

I take offense to OSU being called “King of the Cupcakes”. In wrestler parlance, they’d be “Jobber to the Stars” where they beat the lower and mid-tier wrestlers but end up staring at the lights when they face main-event talent.

Spur

They sure show those MAC teams who’s the boss.

Redshirt

Also the middle Big Ten teams who are getting close to the B1G Penthouse. Its an important role to be Gatekeeper.

Not sure its smart for Michigan to keep their coach in an NFL city without a Head Coach.

O/U Minutes until ESPN shows #3 and #4, 10 minutes and 1.5 commercial breaks.

King Hippo

LMAO, Lewandoski. Such a prick.

Logic: (1) Georgia vs. (4) Ohio State; (2) Michigan vs (3) TCU
Greed: (1) Georgia vs. (4) TCU; (2) Michigan vs. (3) Ohio State
Elitism: (1) Georgia vs. (4) Alabama; (2) Michigan vs. (3) TCU
No Chance in Hell But The Reactions Would Be Hilarious: (1) Georgia vs. (4) Alabama; (2) Michigan vs. (3) Ohio State

Frogger to face England, a “hitorical rival” or Senegal, “a nation they are historically tied with.”

What a nice way to say “used to own/exploit.”

Don T

They’d label Spain – Maroc a neighboUrly dispute.

BTW, Balls called that game way back

litre_cola

I work with 2 Moroccans and they are jacked for that matchup.

ballsofsteelandfury

I thought it wouldn’t happen because we masturbate too much and can’t have nice things yet here we are.

Sometimes good things do happen!

Gumbygirl

At the beginning of the footy tipping, they asked which team I support. I took that to mean which team do you think will win it all, and I chose France. But Spam can have the fleshlight, because he is my favorite. Don’t tell the others.

God damn. Mbappé with authority.

Horatio Cornblower

Absolute rocket. Looked like he called his spot.

King Hippo

100% the best player in the game. #2 ain’t even close.

King Hippo

Ugh, gimpy Zay Jones (with great matchup) or healthy Latavius Murray (shite matchup) in the flex? Can’t risk waiting to see if Deebo is active/good or not.

King Hippo

yeah, I benched Lat in Vodka league for Perine (since Beatie is reportedly extremely doubtful)

Nothing says the holidays like an Orient festival.

And the wine pairing had the tannins all wrong. True monsters, the French.

With day-old baguettes. Probably a violation of the Geneva convention, but play foolish games, win foolish prizes!
