It’s week 7 already? Where does the time go?
Tidbits:
-Mecole Hardman and his one precious reception is headed back to the Chiefs after an eye-opening (for the Jets) stay in New York. What was the point of all that? I guess he has use for K.C. because he knows the offense but why not give more time to the Rice’s and Ross’s on the roster?
-Justin Pugh, the old lineman that was dragged off his couch to play for the Giants is likely going to start at left tackle this weekend. When did he last play that position? 2015. When did he last play? Last October.
-Tyson Bagent (rhymes with Brock Purdy?) will be only the 4th DII qb to start a game in the last 20 years. Nathan Peterson, the backup to Fields, must have felt a ‘Whoosh” as Bagent jumped him in the qb queue.
-Remember that massive ESPN culling that resulted in the Matron, Van Gundy, Steve Young and others being shown the door? Well, that was all a smokescreen so that Horatio’s favorite septum-scraping septuagenarian could be brought on board and be paid the big bucks. Yes, Jim Boeheim will be doing games and studio work for the WWW this season. Your great grandfather’s sweater vest couldn’t be prouder.
To The Game!
Jags/Saints:
-Line Troubles: New Orleans will be missing at least two o-linemen and possibly a third. Another fella will be back after getting benched because there were no better alternatives.
-No In-Between: Apparently Emo Carr either likes throwing long or dumping it to the backs for that safe checkdown. Even prior to Kamara’s return he was ranked 3rd in the league in being a pantywaist.
-Perhaps that’s why the Saints have scored less than 21 points in 5 of 6 games. The OC that you weren’t aware of-Pete Carmichael-who has been in place since 2009(!) is starting to feel the heat.
-Jamaal Williams is back! His moribund 2.74 yards per carry is not needed however.
-The Saints secondary is doing work-they’re 2nd in opponent comp. percentage, have the most passes defended at 40 and have the 5th-best interception rate. I don’t expect to get much out of Ridley this evening.
-After the manly amount of carries he got last week, Etienne has 113 rush attempts which is first in the league.
Pray for the over.
That drop will cost me, fortunately I missed it because it’s been two lines, no waiting for Hippo and the porcelain god, from kickoff until like 5a when I finally got a ginger beer down (which settled things). Nothing MOAR fun than sending 5:30 work e-mails to get those al-kee-HAWL-ic rumours turned up to 11.
Anyway, God bless Amazon for same-day Pedialyte delivery, in the good flavoUr (cherry pomegranate). Evil hypercapitalism gets a bad rap sometimes.
Here’s grandson Bronco in the car with me yesterday morning, as we waited out the cleaning lady’s visit. Had that been today, I’d be crying profusely.
Ugh. Hope your gut settles down and starts behaving. Dealt with some nasty digestive issues, and it’s NO FUCKING FUN.
Bronco is adorable. He looks like a frisky lil feller. Did he like being in the car, or was he jittery?
Jittery last month, pretty chill this time. I forgot how much fun it is to watch the learning curve of a kitten.
Nice. Looks like he is enjoying the view and change of scenery.
My lil girl HATES the car (as it usually involves a trip to the dread dungeon of fear and pain (aka: the vet)

Oh thank dog. I didn’t want OT.
Me either.
Same, but I really could’ve used an Olavedown

Is Carr hurt?
https://youtu.be/8AHCfZTRGiI?si=g4ISXoJTT3IbygIz
A major sportsbook must have fucked up their line for the under and put in a call to the Shield to remove the defenses
Now get Olave the ball, you emo fuck.
No, not captain magic underpants
They can’t kick the go-ahead field goal if you give up a TD.
Where the fuck has that been all damn night?
Please let that stand as a TD!
I’ll take it
Carr card!
Is it just me or does Carr’s hairline look like the Apple notch?
Carr just hurt his undercarriage.
That’s what happens when you hang out in Vegas with this sign
Huh, sudden competence, neat!

Welp.
Ugh. The leftover wine I poured was too warm. So now I have to wait for it to cool down in the fridge for a bit before enjoying it.
Freezer is faster!
Wrap the glass with wet paper towel and it will be evn faster
Thoughts and prayers.

DOINK is in Nawlins tonight!
AND DOINK IS MERCIFUL!
THESE SAINTS I CALL THEM A GIBSON BECAUSE IT’S A STRONG SHITTY TASTE AND YOU DON’T EVEN GET AN OLAVE
GET IT TO OLAVE
Late and sober. I apologize.
Unless you have a fetish for watching emo kids play poor football you haven’t missed anything
Then I’m in the clear. Watching this game with both my sons, and yelling at them to fucking turn Tik Tok down. My christ is music horrible these days.
Well, we’ll allow it this time, but let’s not make a habit of it, alright?
Dr. Seuss wrote the book “Green Eggs and Ham” on a bet that he couldn’t write a coherent book with only 50 unique words. He won that bet.
The Saints may have made a bet that they could have a winning season without scoring any touchdowns. They will lose that bet.
Can i play craps with you? I want to win money.
Flop.
I know it’s not an original idea (the Simpsons did it first with Wiggum) but this Derek Carr spinoff of That’s My Raiders! set in New Orleans is ratings gold.
Ward 8 made and being consumed. It’s a little sweet so I may have overcompensated on cherry syrup without the grenadine. But solid.
They are really good. I should make one again soon
It’s a good thing there are a lot of places to get a drink in New Orleans
and vomit

Nawlins fans really getting into the Halloween spirit with the ghost impressions. Lots of “BOOOOOOooooooo BOOOoooOOOooooo!” heard in the stands.
big bad field goal daddies
Not sure what happened, but the James Madison-Marsha match has been stopped for over ten minutes while a player is being stretched off.
The scariest thing is there have been literally zero replays. None. In fact, they went back to the studio for a bit due to “the situation.”
The guy from Jersey Shore was there? That seems odd with the location, education and all.
“Later in the fourth quarter, the game was delayed when Marshall defensive back JJ Roberts suffered an injury that required him to be immobilized and carted off the field on a backboard on a stretcher. The crowd was silent and both teams kneeled down as medical personnel tended to Roberts, who gave a thumbs up as he was wheeled off the field.”

What’s the next round?
Ward 8?
2 oz. Rye
1/2 oz. Lemon juice
1/2 oz. Orange juice
2 tsp. Grenadine
2 Speared cherries to garnish
Add all ingredients to a shaker filled with ice. Shake, then strain into a chilled cocktail glass.
Got a decent grenadine substitute?
Maraschino liqueur and some high end cherry juice?
Yeah. give that a shot
I should send you my master spreadsheet of all the drinks I’ve made here with links to the posts
I wouldn’t be mad at that.
If there only was a link to all the cocktails posts in one place…..
I go back through Yeah Right’s posts all the time, for inspiration.
