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.

One play one penalty. Thats the Pete Carroll offense

And a Walker III 30 yard run on the next play.

And he’s injured and out after that run

Quick punt! Quick punt!

Now would be the time for a fake punt.

Sharkbait

Fantastic play call by the Gmen, calling “run into each other in the backfield”

King Hippo

PUNT THE BALL DABOLL

King Hippo

Jets need a safety and a FG now!

King Hippo

DRAW DRAW DRAW! GIVE SHARKY A LIVE DRAW!!!

Sharkbait

I’m here for it. Is David Carradine the patron saint of ties?

A bunch of people at the Miami Admiral’s Club just broke out cheering at that mammalfish TD

Recovery Whiskey

The Admirals Club at DFW (D) split their rooms into FOX and CNN. Was … pretty good since the main room was apolitical

Redshirt

Those Giants throwbacks are nice. Wonder why Washington isn’t wearing their throwbacks?

Doktor Zymm

Burgundy and gold are both too classy for Snyder

LemonJello

Something about making blankets out of the old stock and giving them to indigenous peoples?

Gumbygirl

Steelers won, yay!

Doktor Zymm

I am pretty pissed at whatever team that was that blew a 5-0 lead

Doktor Zymm

C’mon Jets, I have only minorly compelling reasons to root for you, so don’t betray my extremely tentative interest!

ballsofsteelandfury

A Hippo spree will be a sight to see!

litre_cola

He just texted me that they traded 1st and 2 pick for Wilson?!?!?!? Yikes.

King Hippo

Ummm, multiple 1sts and multiple 2nds

Recovery Whiskey

Yes indeed

King Hippo

/but these 2 will be in the top 5 minimum, FOOKIN OUCH

Doktor Zymm

Yeah, someone recently reminded me whatall went for him, it’s a bad trade for the record books

King Hippo

Russ still has balls. Nothing else, but balls.

Doktor Zymm

I heard a rumor that he’s lost the locker room. He thinks he left it in the rental car when he drove over to Denver.

Nano bubbles don’t work that far above sea level

Recovery Whiskey

I think you’re onto something

Recovery Whiskey

And visits to hospital children on Tuesdays. You get that community leader stuff

Recovery Whiskey

Hot take on local media is Seattle can’t lose against depleted LA.

Doktor Zymm

What the hell happened while my plane was landing?? How did (insert team of choice here) screw up so bad??

Recovery Whiskey

Your travel activities > NFL drama

litre_cola

Oh boy Hippo.

King Hippo

I said many bad words, loudly

Redshirt

“The women impacted and affected by this.”

The commentator is making being raped like having their car battery needing jumped.

Sharkbait

Giants bad play calling is bad.

King Hippo

WFAN Reacts Reasonably

Darius Slayton, honorary hobo

BugEyedBoo

30 FF points from the CLE defense.

Picked them up in my money league

Game Time Decision

Still gonna lose

litre_cola

This calls for handjobs for everyone!

Doktor Zymm

It pays to put up a strong defense when D. Watson is around

litre_cola

Did you want to see my D young lady? – D. Watson.

TheRevanchist

0 from Lamar. 🙁

King Hippo

Christ, you know Brocky is against #ThePauls D/ST

litre_cola

At least Sharky is at a good game.

Sharkbait

I’m thinking there’s gonna be a lot of angry drinking at the hotel bar after

Doktor Zymm

That’s the third best type of drinking!

Recovery Whiskey

Was not aware of a scale but they had me at “angry drinking at the hotel bar”

LemonJello

Jints v Commies not quite bananacakes…maybe banana muffin status?

King Hippo

If we blow this, I am going on a killing spree

Need your middle name for the papers.

He was a quiet recluse, seemed a good neighboUr.

King Hippo

Beans don’t burn on the griiiilllll

King Hippo

Hurts must be the MVP. Compare to the other QB lines today

Recovery Whiskey

Qaron complaining about non existent PI.

Doktor Zymm

Complaining about a nonexistent primary inoculation? I remember that press conference

King Hippo

Watch the Jets win on 7 FGs

King Hippo

Imagine picking up his daughter for prom

Sharkbait

It’s been a weird game for sure

King Hippo

Bearistocrats! Delayed is not Bearistocrats! Denied

Doktor Zymm

Seriously? If they can’t win this game then they are officially crap forever

TheRevanchist

Senegal is done.

Recovery Whiskey

Its coming home its coming home

And Germany’s out the cup is guaranteed!

Dunstan

I don’t know, England historically has done better when the French get knocked out early and the Germans are the final opponent. Also true in soccer.

Game Time Decision

What a catch for AJ Brown.

I think it can survive this game, if it survived the ‘93 CIN@NE game.

King Hippo

Saddest part? Easily the best we’ve played all goddamned year

King Hippo

That horrid MNF in Seattle is probably in 2nd. Off to stick my head in the oven

Recovery Whiskey

This season? That game’s Donks second best scoring 16 points and missing a long FG?

Yikes. We all wanted to keep him too.

Yeah, as shit as it was (for us) it has only been downhill before today.

Gatoraids

Im sure Bezos is jealous it wasnt on TNF

Mr. Ayo

Thanks for showing up Senegal.

Dunstan

This is England we’re talking about. Giving up two second half goals and then losing on penalties is still very realistic.

Dunstan

YER A WIZARD, ‘ARRY!

King Hippo

That’s the “Good Hodgins” I suppose?

Dunstan

England scores!!!!!

Dunstan

Just lie back and think of England.

Redshirt

Not near a TV. Is Lamar Jackson just banged up or did his knee go bye-bye?

King Hippo

couldn’t tell much from the replay, but been ruled OUT

Redshirt

Same here. Burrow’s hits may have desensitized me to QB hits, but unless a knee buckled on impact, Jackson didn’t seem that bad.

Unless they don’t want to risk it and figure Huntley can beat Denver or are hoping Bengals will lose to KC so they can take a loss.

He was walking from what I saw. Looked like the hit was one of those “body weight” ones that’s supposed to be illegal now, but I was also watching redzone without sound so it’ entirely possible i have no idea what’s going on

King Hippo

Enough QB cripplings today that I can get a shitty backup to start next week when I lose the Division to Spam. ANYTHING BUT CHARMSLINGER.

ThePirateSloth

Don’t say “Toe Drag Swag” again.

Mr. Ayo

Prison Girlfriend DED

King Hippo

Brought the boys to the yard a little too fervently today

King Hippo

The shotgun will have to come out for Prison Girlfriend.

clint greasewood

That Watson pass hit the ground faster than his towel at Mama-san’s pleasure palace

makeitsnowondem

Not sure if calling Senegal a “streetwise team” is more racist or less coming from an Englishman.

King Hippo

I mean, they are allowed to say “boy” which always does my head in
