What a start, eh? SKOL breaks Frank Reich’s all-time comeback record, against Frank Reich’s former charges. It was 33-nil at the half. It was 36-7 late into Q3. Captain Dingleberry STILL tossed what looked like a back-breaking Q4 pickerception. But the Humps ultimately humped it all away, on a long TD “screen and rumble” by Dalvin Cook. 36-all, before we even hit 2:00. Sheeit, Minny even got the ball back with 1:10 and the chance to win (and predictably didn’t make a single first down).
But OT was just a trade of punts, followed by a gassed Indy D surrendering the winning FG drive. 39-36, and yeah right will scope out local “Nutcracker” options every gameday going forward.
Let’s not speak much of Ratbirds aways to #ThePauls. Plus, I am writing this in advance.
LOLfins (+7) at Bills Mafia (8:15, NFLN)
Most importantly, despite the playoff impact fpr both squadoos – the FORECAST, as of 5:30 Hippo Standard Time:
Snow this evening will transition to snow showers late. Low 27F. Winds WSW at 10 to 20 mph. Chance of snow 100%. Snow accumulating 5 to 8 inches.
No wussing out and going to Detroit this goddamned week! Y’all will play in the snow, and allow our inner 8-year olds to rejoice in the sweet entropy. Buffalo has the better defensive front AND offensive line, so I still give them the advantage. But maybe chaos will bring us the Most Glorious Draw we almost had in Minneapolis. As always, Hippo shall root for it.
There are also bad JV exhibitions on ABC and ESPN, should you hate yourself enough to flip over. DID I MENTION SNOW GAME??
Please, Allen went down like an Italian soccer player and/or $5 whore, not that there’s much difference.
That was an outstanding punt, let’s see if Allen can channel his inner Baker Mayfield.
Narrator: He could not.
Hey everybody!
The Nutcracker was great. Fantastic production values.
The Wahini played a “Dream Mouse.” She hit her spots!
Glad I gave up on the Vikings game though.
33-0 at the Half? Fuck that.
I don’t need that.

You’re a good man, Yeah Right.
Thank you. It’s been my soul intent my whole life. Appreciate that.
I love this game!
God clearly has a sense of humor, as the lake effect snow hits 10 minutes before thousands of drunks are going to try to get home.
Announcer: “We’ve secretly applied a Teflon coating to game ball. Let’s see if Josh Allen notices.”
Did no one properly explain aging to Alanis Morissette?
or makeup Alice Cooper wore it better
Ironic, isn’t it?
(it’s not actually ironic, but since nothing in that fucking song of hers about irony actually is ironic it’s perfectly appropriate)
She’s getting older, but doesn’t know how?
Well isn’t that…silly, doncha think?
She oughta know better
I have no interest in either the Bills or Dolphins, but for whatever odd reason, I want the Dolphins to win this game.
Purely for the chaos, really
A decent reason to root against Buffalo is that they didn’t deliver the snow that was promised.
Also those red unis.
I’m pretty sure we blamed Lake Erie for that.
My friend Maxx doesn’t like Fast Twitch.
Okay, Saturday NFL Games are batshit insane.
If they try to take those Make-A-Wish kids to the North Pole in a Tesla they’re going to have an entirely different set of health problems to deal with.
Yes but at least when the car catches on fire it will keep them all warm.
CANYONEROOOOOOOOO…
So I’m still in the LDB challenge. 3 + hours on Xmas music and I’m still in.
And got most of the gifts wrapped!!!
Same, and I was in several stores and a bar tonight. Fortunately the bar had their radio turned to a disco channel, which cut down the risk considerably.
Same, and that’s after family turned on Alexa on the Christmas station.
Someone asked if we should sing Christmas carols and there was almost a Redshirt-shaped hole in the door.
if they dont overturn here comes the snowballs
Nah, the crowd knows it wasn’t a catch.
Who’s the genius that benched Waddle because he thought they’d be playing in a blizzard tonight? THIS GUY.
I see the three shots bench points punishment in my future. Thank god Captain Dingleberry might win me my quarterfinal himself.
What a great fucking pass by Tua
-Independent neurologist, after Tua doesn’t actually shit in his pants and is therefore cleared for football activities
Chiropracter fixed his brain
Found a funny;
sorry bro, i’m still too hungover from happy hondadays, no way i could make it to toyotathon
You came back!!! Yay, we missed you!
That’s an awfully unsubtle and unfortunate move by Manfred, which is pretty consistent with all of the unsubtle and unfortunate moves he’s been making to destroy baseball.
Boop!
He’s using 2 hands to hold her clear penis
I think she’s married to a hockey player. I can just imagine what would have happened if he’d been there for that promo. Free gloves for everyone!
Apparently someone had France to win the the World Cup as the final part of some insane parlay that involved multiple championships and which, if France won, would have turned $26 into well over $500K.
Took a buy-out today for $280K. Smart move.
I like the Frogs tomorrow but woulda done the same.
I agree. Refusing $280K to try to turn $26 into a half million plus is absolutely spitting in karma’s face. Take the money and watch the game with a glass of excellent bourbon.
Also I think France is the better team, but would not bet against FIFA doing whatever was necessary to get the “Messi finally wins the Cup” narrative over the line.
I am not a tinfoil hat guy but yeah, I can see some shadiness afoot.
You don’t have to be a tinfoil hat guy to suspect nefarious doings when FIFA’s around.
The Qataris own PSG who pay Messi and Mbappe, very convenient.
And when France wins…
“C’est la vie”
“Oh well” I say, flipping $280,000 in ones at several expensive prostitutes.
It was an incredible ticket.
Giroud has an owie, man was smart to take it. I have 50CAD at 10 to 1 on France from before the tourney. No cashout for me.
I was rooting for France anyway, but now I will do so even more.
I doubt that this time I will be the only guy who speaks french in the pub. No hot Quebecoise reporter for me.
Field goals and replay reviews should be banned in these mid tier Bowl Games
Should ban all of them north of the Tennessee border. Who wants to vacation in Boise in December anyway?
North Texas (Mean Joe Greene’s alma mater!) has a player named Mose.
Also a guy name Var’Keyes

We’re a Dan Smith away from convincing me this whole game is some extended sketch comedy bit
He will teach you guitar!
Tua’d
/that was pretty
Who finished 3rd in the World Cup? I forgot to care earlier today.
Croatia, 2-1.
Thanks, saves me a lot of time on the rerun.
Oh, sorry! I wuz not thinking about spoilers.
I wasn’t kidding; I had no intention of watching it.
I don’t understand why Boise State is in the Frisco Bowl, (I double-checked this time; it’s them), because I thought they had a lock on the Idaho Famous Potato Bowl any time they didn’t get a New Years invite.
The Potato Bowl got
stolenacquisitioned by England, didnt you hear?Would’ve thought those thieving, bog-trotting micks took it.
Early window tomorrow looks…Not Great, Bob!
Back from the second social obligation of the day, en route to the third. Hippo, sometimes you have a point.
How the hell did *I* get COVID and not you?
[glances at Raiders hat]
Oh, right.
I also got covid
DAMN SKIPPY, ah does. Even if I may have #FourthPillForgot what that point originally was.
The Bills score…
You misspelled “dildos”.
Not to steal your thunder but we really should keep this handy in case it’s needed.
Thank you, sir.
So this Mercedes Santa commercial means that Santa was going to put that dog in the trunk?
Santa Vick?
….. that sounds like a poorly made meme from 2007.
I love it
The Frisco Bowl as 5-7 Rice University in it, in case you were wondering if there were too many bowl games.
They got the invite for being the least-stupid 5-7 team, too.
I fucked this up. Rice at 5-7 was on crawl below the score and are not actually playing in this game.
I am not even drunk, just deeply, deeply ashamed.
An X-Wing on a sex swing?
Rebel scum makes you… well you get it
A tied fighter?
The QB for the Jags is one ugly woman.
Prison Girlfriend gets looks in the rec yard and chow hall, though.
The LendingTree Bowl is low-end and all, but Frank Gore Jr. has rushed for 329 yards and thrown a TD pass/ For what that’s worth.
How old is he, about 40?
Yes but Southern Miss (where Favre went) found a way to get him in the lineup.
His dad’s about a hundred, I figured his kid’s probably been in college for thirty or forty years himself.
Dear “Feeding America”, it’s nice that you got Scarlett Johansen to be a spokesperson.
But I have to be honest, when she’s pitching your message, the only thing I think about is “boobs.”
Sorry.
THOSE SHOULDERS WOW
This is legitimately my favorite outfit of hers
They didn’t say what they were feeding America with, now did they?
Well, then you’d have a nation full of lactose intolerant people. But still, I’d be in line.
You sit here and bitch and moan. I’ll help myself to some Scarlett Milk.
My family suggested watching ernest saves Christmas.
I suggested ernest scared stupid
We compromised
Hope you show better hands when beating yo’ kids, Tyreek smh
We’ve got ice balls getting thrown. How long before ice dildos get chucked on the field?
Soon as the fans are done with em
Banner!
Ah yes, using reason to appeal to the better nature of NFL fans who have been drinking since sun-up.
Lemme know how that works out.

Okay where was that shit on that Thursday night game hines?
Fucking dork
God blushes coquettishly
Tell him to keep on blushing. I got a surprise for him
Yes, pelt your team with chunks of snow when they score.
fucking idiots
Oh Christ, it’s Mariah
Guess who forgot this was a Saturday night game and still had Tua starting (and Col. Mostert on the bench though that’s also because of Dobbins, Jones, and Pollard being my RBs and flex)!
Heh, gap integrity
Gumby sez that little kid who is the Miami coach is absolutely going to stick his tongue to a goalpost after the game.
Calling the red rider audible
This can’t be real.
It’s Andre 3000 #Obvio
yes this was completely real
It’s real to Litre, don’t anybody spoil it for him.
Sure the Ravens are dogshit, but the Colts blowing that lead warms my cockles. Cause fuck them and the Irsays. Yes, still bitter after all these years.
NEVAR CHANGE, my dude.
/soUrry about the microaggression
Memories of going to those games with my uncles and father, in a stadium that my grandfather helped build, will always be golden to me.
The day they moved was the day a piece of me died.
May the Irsays, their spawn, and all who come after them, be damned straight to hell.
Tough, but fair.
My dad was working a cross country construction job when that all went down.
He had the misfortune of trying to buy beer in Maryland while having an Indiana drivers license. Guy refused to sell it too him. Said “it looked like a fake” cuz pops had grown out his mustache
Mayflower moving vans are still not welcome in this town.
As I said in the other thread, it would be a lot funnier to me if the Raiders hadn’t lost to that same Colts team.
I want Greg Roman’s fat, greasy, brainless head on a plate
Wondered today how our President of Anger would take that L.
It’s like this.
Say you were dating a girl. And you were in love. But then it turned out she was a fat, incompetent fuckhole who consistently loses games, fucks shit up, and is protected by the Harb Ring of Fire.
So you bought a high quality pickaxe and buried it deep into his fat fucking pumpkin head.
And even though you went to jail, you were hailed as a hero and everyone brought you jailhouse liquor and gave you their comissary.
That’s what it’s like.
Hating the red uniforms reminds me of the greattiots
They’re horrid and should be banned.
Where is the damn snow??????
Weather report was Zionist LIES
This Zion?

In all seriousness is a great track.
Jim Irsay has the same question.
When Scotchy advised us earlier that this game had snowmageddon potential I said I would arrange my drinking accordingly. At kick-off I have a). done some Xmas shopping b) gone to the dump with the week’s recyclables c) been to the gym d) walked the dog e) showered f) taken wife and son out to dinner and f) am easing in here with a two beer buzz from dinner in sweats and a throwback Leroy Selmon Bucco Bruce Jersey. As Blair Walsh might say, nailed it.
Unfortunately, Lake Erie is yet to cooperate. BITCH-ASS LAKE.
You got one of them Japanese toilets?
