Hopefully there will be all kinds of ‘interesting’ get-ups in the crowd tonight. I might even wish to be a cameraman in Detroit, [who has ever wished to be that?] scouring the crowd for some imaginative folks and their wears.
Fallout:
-Was it just last week (or the week previous?) in this very spot when I was yapping about the surfeit of backup QB’s that have assaulted our eyeballs this season?
-The most serious injury yesterday was Cousins Achilles. (where’s your god now, Kirkie?) There should be plenty of downstream questions/problems attached to this circumstance. Will JJ rush back now? The team fought back from an 0-3 hole to get to 4-4 but now what? Who’s Jaren Hall? What schematic changes will need to be made to the offense? It has to become more conservative, right? How soon does Nick Mullen return? Why would anyone pin their playoff hopes on this version of Nick Mullen?
-Desmond Ridder exited his game yesterday with a head ouchie, passed the concussion test and was held out of the game nevertheless. Coach Smith said that Ridder being sent to the bench had nothing to do with his poor play. Riiiight. Perhaps there’s a bruised ego involved.
-Kenny Pickett’s Ribs sounds like a fast-casual regional chain restaurant (I’ll have the 28oz ‘Disrespectful Tomahawk Chop’ please) but it’s an injury designation. Hopefully our Yinzer faithful aren’t on pins and needles waiting for the return of a guy who has topped out at 235 yards passing this year.
-It’s painful as a Giants fan to see them lose a winnable game twice but it is hilarious to then go online and read several yahoos call for the mid-season firing of…GM Joe Shoen?! The same Shoen that just traded a fading 29 yr. old DL Leonard Williams (and his 32 mil salary) for a 2nd and 5th draft pick. That’s some quality wheeling and dealing. Damn it. With a win yesterday the Giants would have been 3-5 which is acceptable given their sked.
-I think reasonable Cowboys fans can say for the first time in quite some time that this year’s version has a killer instinct. Aside from the close win vs the Chargers they’ve won games 40-0, 30-10, 38-3 and 43-2-. That’s some quality neck-stepping!
To The Game!
Raiders/Lions:
-Jimmy G. is playing! Ladies, commence swooning.
-Sun God was added to the injury report yesterday with an illness. Rumor has it he’s come down with Bijan Syndrome.
-The Lions give up the 3rd-most catches and 4th-most yards to tight ends-maybe you should drop some monies on some Michael Mayers (the spelling is oh-so-close!) props? He might just do some balling if this simulation is on point.
-Them Raiders had an ‘Open Locker Room’ chat recently. If the meeting didn’t end with the unanimous call for the offense to center around Jacobs, Adams and Jacobi then it was all a bunch of silly jawing.
-Going back to last season the Raiders have failed to reach 20 points in 7 of their last 8. That’s fine if you’ve got a defense like the Browns but otherwise it’s a problem.
-And yet that D is doing some good things because you can’t throw long on them. They’ve yielded a league low 10 passes of 20+ yards so far.
Hit those keys!
The NFL continues to be evil.

iowa: *exists*
Wyoming does not as per Dok. I even sent a pic of me at the border but that evidence was thrown out.
Nawt my fault if you fell for a Wyoming deep fake
chargers/jests is the next mnf? do they really want us to quit football?
Will be on a plane! Heh.
max scherzer’s body has fallen apart before max scherzer can, what a break for the rangers
This is just plain shitty. If it wasn’t for yous I would not be able to watch this dreck.
My Halloween Parlay lives on! (I know his name was Michael Myers, but close enough)
I would let her beat me over the head with a shovel. If she asked nicely and touched my arm (like party gals do)
Booba Fett
buck and aikman are tryin their best, its not working
These were great – and they melted super fast when they were set on fire
This game is pretty bad, yeah?
Time for sleepies for sure.
Yeah I am leaning that way.
Ugh, for my flight tomorrow I’m all the way down at 15 on the upgrade list, and that’s WITH plus points applied. When did Tuesday night become so popular for traveling??
Pasta-lovin’ Jimmy G, age 50:
heeeeeyyyy im busy throwin the intaceptshuns, heearrre!!
Italian American men, we age like milk left out in the sun
Calm down Joe, it’s the Detroit Lions. Christ he sounds like he’s going to swallow his tongue. One can hope.
Aikman talking about QBs playing with their minds is like Trump talking about how to live an honest life.
and eat healthy, and abstain from fast food
and not molest women in changing rooms
I can’t remember a season where I’ve seen more flags picked up.
LA 2028!
“We haven’t been featured on Monday Night Football since 2018! What say we wear our drab gray uniforms that nobody can stand to look at?”
-Lions PR Team
while playing a team wearing mostly the same color!
We’ve replaced Handsome Jimmy with Handless Jimmy for the second quarter. Will it make a difference?
Better Halloween costume for sure!
Jim Tomsula tried that once or twice in Vegas, and it didn’t work.
Dollar Tree Ryan Gosling.
What if Giovanni Ribisi could throw a football?
This should have been a Thursday ,morning London game.
a tues/wed bullshit game like during the covid year
Those games were awesome, and kept many of us from going on a killing spree.
Between this and Sunday night the NFL is clearly trying to maximize the horror factor in honor of Halloween.
Or a Tuesday night game in Wichita scheduled for 11 pm
How much effort you think Adams put into going up for that ball? 10%? 15?
I’m currently being stalked by a mosquito. Little does he know I have a secret weapon.
Zzzzzzzzzźaappp!
I thought your secret weapon was a high BAC
I hope he waits until you’re asleep, crawls up your nose, and lays eggs in your brain.
Did they do that in Emily?
This game has turned into the expected amount of stupid
Sudden change! and a Sudden change!
ah, the lions
ah, the raidaaaahhhsss!
Probably one of the best toys manufactured in the 70s
SSPs were the best goddamned toys; my neighborhood buddy and I used to jump them over the street on a ramp we built at the bottom of his driveway (steep drive, narrow street). My favorite was hitting my sister’s Barbie town house from 20 feet away with the super stocker and knocking it over. Glory Days!
Jaw-dropping.
Jim Kelly isn’t here…
My first bb gun. After promising my father I would never point it at anyone, I shot my neighbor right in his ass.
Gumby got that same bb gun for his birthday. He shot the window out of his house as soon as his parents stopped watching him.
Had one of these. Fuckin’ impossible to cock it. Shot the window of the neighbor’s car out by accident.
Wal Mart and the word stylish go together like sardines and strawberry jelly
Princess has an aunt I’d love you to meet.
Max Crosby is legit insane. One of the few men in this world who don’t look silly with neck tattoos.
Actually, I’m getting a neck tattoo.
Gonna say: Emily in Paris Forever
Mrs sharkbait is mid watch of that trash. She thinks it’s just as ridiculous as you do.
I’m working on the article as we speak. It’s the biggest pile of shit in the universe.
I’ll chip in $20 towards your tatt, or if you want I can buy a tattoo gun off Amazon and try to do it myself
Only if we each do four shots of tequila and then livestream it.
Totally in
Missed opportunity to have the Mannings in the booth in Troy and Joe costumes.
I just fried the hell out of two eggs.
Served them over-easy on a single slice of 100% whole wheat toast. Except for a tiny pat of unsalted butter in my dedicated non-stick egg pan, there were no other added ingredients.
Not even salt and pepper?
nope
Sad.
Needs at least three more slices of bread, for dippy eggs. Plus that salt and pepper.
Dippy eggs, yinz!

ArmedandHammered’s costume this year:
I wish.
I have always been fascinated with WarHammer. I don’t play the game, too fucking complicated, but the painted miniatures, world building, everything. Completed fascinating.
These LioUns outfits lokk very Dook like.
Interesting interpretation of “Detroit Hockey Fans”
Some men get their red wings, others earn them.
“And can these ‘red wings’ be bought?” – Coach Reid, holding out a fistful of cash
“Definitely” – R. Kraft
Oh Gen Z, you’re so edgy. And fucking dumb.
Here’s a good one.
Saturday we go to dinner with my best friend and his wife.
They show up to my house to pre-game.
Best friend brings me a gummie. Thank you.
Great night.
Wake up Sunday, check my calendar. Whoops. I have an appointment Monday to take a physical for life insurance – mainly a urine and blood sample for analysis.
Ummmmm.
I tell Mrs. Fozz.
“You know you’re 54 and a father, right? This isn’t college. God you’re dumb.”
Does the insurance company care?
Probably be surprised if he was completely clean.
Probably look at the THC level and be glad he is doing something for his blood pressure.
Sounds like a job for The Whizzinator!
I need everything to go to Gibbs, and nothing to St. Brown
You shut your dirty mouth.
I need…a time machine.
I am very, very bad at fantasy.
Found your Halloween costume.
TUFF BUTT FARE
You can use that as “Donks QBs Since 2015” next Halloween, too.
One of my best friends in high school, his last name was Gibbs. Hope this helps.
dan heard ya
best costume ive seen in years: lions as a 1st place football team
Ok, food here, couch set back in upright position even though nawt fixed, prosecco open, nfl+ functioning on the projector, and I even learned that sometimes football coaches have feelings! What a world!
“Correction. Assistant coaches have feelings but if you shove the point of the knife right thru the brain quickly, they don’t feel a thing!”
-A. Reid, a bit confused
Has he confused the assistant coaches with lobsters again?
She’s gonna get some really gnarly ice burns first time she falls
That’s a face you comb the hair over.
Go Habs go
rubble rubble
“You’ve torn your dress
Rubble, rubble your face is a mess
Rubble rubble, how could they know?
Hot hamburgers, I love you so!”
those helmets are kinda neat
the unis…
I like the gray jammies, but I’m a weirdo, as you all know. I really like the helmets.
My wife hates the design but likes the color.
I’m not saying that Melania Trump bathes in the blood of street children from some Brazilian favela in order to preserve her youthful appearance, but it totally sounds like something she would do, if it actually were proven to work, doesn’t it?
George Santos knows a guy if you need one.
And he proved that blood thing is legit YEARS ago
If I had to wake up to that bloated orange orangutan, I’d be trying to speed up my death, not postpone it.
I’m guessing they have seperate bedrooms. Also guessing Trump hasn’t maintained an erection since the 90s

The more I read this, the funnier it gets. And yes, I’m going to Hell.
This guy has spent all his spare time trying to doxx FBI agents. He’s pathetic. He tried to escape custody. He’s been convicted of multiple offenses related to the storming of the Capital. What’s so funny? He’s a dangerous, dumb person that will no doubt endanger innocent people in the very near future. I don’t get it. Don’t normalize/make fun of these shitheads.
Sorry for the joke. Admins, if I crossed the line, please delete my comment.
You didn’t cross any line as far as I’m concerned. It’s been a bit of a day. I very much like your takes on the political climate.
Same here. I was only joking about him being deaf and his “expert plan” to escape. Its been a day for me. Actually a shit ton of days, really.
As for the insurrectionist and to fully make my opinions clear, I believe we should follow my English forefathers and drawn and quarter them all and send their arms and legs to Alaska, Hawaii, Maine and Florida and their heads to Belle Fourche, SD.
That or jail for life. I’m reasonable.
Dammit! That is my outfit when I meet Dok and Don T at the airport on Friday.
Now I’m really sad I’m missing DFOCon
Ah cool, it’ll be easy to find you with that hat
Annual reminder – Hippo is NO FUN, and actively disdains Halloween.
not the BIGGEST fan either, but when it falls on a sat night it rules as a kid (no school, eat all the candy)
We are expecting around 350 trick or treaters tomorrow night, so I’ll be pacing myself with pumpkin beer and straight bourbon.
One Halloween my wife and bought a bushel basket full of candy in preparation for the swarm of kids we were expecting. We had one kid. We ate out of that basket for about three months.
That’s how many I used to get in Birmingham. I miss it, it was fun.
oh, as a kid it was great
Tom Jones approves!
I tried to order Cuban, but Doordash cancelled my order so I got misc American instead. Fried chicken sandwich, some sort of salad with avocado and bacon in it, elote, and sweet potato tater tots with truffle aioli
Someone commandeered the raft?

Excellent pick but wrong thread.
What cuisine should I order for dinner/game watching?
I was discussing Indian with my family earlier. You should get:
Veggie Samosa
Garlic Naan
Lamb Korma
Palak paneer to go with the naan!
What pairs best with crown moulding? Rack of lamb?
I see we’re both thinking Lamb.
And the Cowboys aren’t even playing!
I have a cold, Vietnamese Pho it is. Extra Spicy!
Chicken wings
/there is no “cuisine” available anywhere near me
However-what about a sandwich influenced by the northern communities of Italy? Say maybe, Bologna. Place two slices of Wonderbread in a toaster, slather with salted butter and mustard afterwards. Fry a piece of baloney in a cast iron pan. Continue to wonder why your parents fight so much. Garnish the plate with saltine crackers.
Be sure to put notches in the baloney so the middle doesn’t bubble up when it shrinks.
Somebody needs to share their fave after-school meal.
Chips Ahoy with peanut butter on top, washed down with some milk.
Cinnamon and sugar on hot buttered toast. Big glass of milk.
There has to be a Chinese resto near you. They are everywhere. It is the emperor’s long game for world domination. What about Gimmi-Wun or Pagoda restaurant?
The closest is 45 minutes away and they’re closed on Mondays.
I am pinpointing the circle of where you could live… I am a regular CSI over here.
I did notice that some in your town were closed on Mondays. Shame that.
I’m going out on a limb-if they’re closed tonight I’m 99% sure they’re not able deliver this evening.
Pretty sure Subway released a version of that this year called The Eli Manning.
Fried peanut butter and banana sandwiches. They were good enough for the King, they’re good enough for you.
That’s the only thing I liked about Elvis, he was a drunken, pill popping redneck asshole who is more overrated than the Beatles. And I think the Beatles were over rated as shit.
Also Jon Lennon was a fucking beating, child abusing hypocrite.
Peanut butter and bacon!
