4 November Evening Glory

King Hippo

/

, ,

Oh my cats, y’all.  Hope you got a nap in, and/or have some trucker speed on hand.  DELICIOUS late slate ahoy!

Ballsy: I recommend Monster although I am really enjoying Celsius recently. Seems healthier?

Kansas (+2.5) at Iowa State (7:00, ESPN)

Could definitely be the sleeper matchup of the day.  Rock Chalk fresh off the big Okiehoma upset, away to perhaps the hardest-nosed team of the league.  Cornpone State has righted the ship, after a tough 2022 and September of 2023, and could legitimately start thinking about making the title game with a win here.

Ballsy: I’m not convinced about either team.

I stand corrected.

Original Recipe Big Love (+10) at West By God Virginia (7:00, FS1)

This is why I love the Big Twaaaaalllllve, amusing Hippo with thoughts of the culture shock involved in this road trip.  Mitt Romney lovers invading the Trumpist Ground Zero.  Moonshine, pills, and cousin fucking.  Can’t wait.

Ballsy: Cousin fuckers versus those that fuck anally in order to stay “virgins” until marriage. WHO YA GOT??

Washington (-3) at Southern Cal (7:30, ABC)

Will the real BOW DOWN! Huskies please show up?  Ain’t nobody want to see the Troi Boiz making the last PAC title game.  Deliver the death blow, please.  Give us Penix, long and hard.

Ballsy: I hate to break it to Hippo, but this is the kind of game USC usually shows up for and wins. Don’t worry, though. They will still lose spectacularly to a bad team later in the season.

LSU (+3) at Alabama (7:45, CBS)

Love the weird (for a network) start time.  Love all the Narrative heading in.  Love that Nick Saban has morphed into the “mellow grandpa” type, especially compared to unhinged psychos like Brian Kelly.  Who remember, has a body count.

Ballsy: LSU: Alabama :: Washington: USC

Oregon State (-13.5) at Colorado (10:00, ESPN)

I’d feel better about this pick had Niiiiiiiiiccccce Beaver not stubbed their (camel)toe last weekend – but I expect this to come down to the last few minutes, maybe even the final play.  Deion’s crew will put up a fight.  Fun game ahead.

Ballsy: Colorado will come back from the dead to win this game. Get ready for THE NARRATIVE.

UC-Los Angeles (-3) at Arizona (10:30, FS1)

Two good Tweaker fixtures, what is the world coming to?  My brain keeps trying not to take these two seriously, but the results say otherwise.

Ballsy: Tis a fool that takes UCLA and gives the points on the road.

UCLA is just another legacy Brand Name that, rather than innovating and competing in their changing market, chose to pursue the luxury of selecting their customers.

Go take your history to the B10G. Better to say that the ‘landscape changed’ rather than narrating reality — good times make for soft leaders and UCLA’s leaders have sacrificed the edge they have been employed to maintain.

yeah right

It’s going to be impossible to sleep. I’m right above the Fremont street experience and this shit is going off.

I think farmers are the least likely folks to care about what the clock says. Can’t feed the cows, Martha. It’s only 6 am.

Oh shit I may see some of the early game.

Probably not.

So it’s just good?

No. It’s like they went for a West Coast but at the very end couldn’t help themselves and tried to throw in some haze. It’s got an aftertaste that I can best describe as ‘greasy’

I would not ship this.

Horatio Cornblower

Gotta give Deion Sanders some credit here. The offensive decision-making on Colorado’s final drive of the first half was beyond atrocious and when asked about it he said “that’s on me” and took full responsibility. I give him a lot of shit, but there’s no shortage of coaches that would have tossed everyone else under the nearest bus right there.

This is why I’m don’t hate Coach Deion Sanders; I have the undeserved hype.

Yes, a clown can lie. Like every other coach who blames himself so he can get hired next time.

A friend of mine told me that Jack Edwards was out of favor with NESN and would be leaving the Bruins broadcasts.

I am devastated to announce that he appears to have been wrong.

Bama knocks the LSU QB out with a shot to the head and landing on him with full bodyweight and there isn’t even a review, in case you were wondering which team will represent the SEC in the play-offs this year.

Maybe this is more common than I thought, but WVU has three #22s on the team. The running back, the kicker, and a cornerback.

Next week, WVU will have three linemen with this.

Jenny Dell and CBS presenting a spot where the military uses a howitzer to do something really stupid and useless, and that probably could have been accomplished without the howitzer, seems a little tone deaf at the moment.

1
BrettFavresColonoscopy

There’s a howitzer out front of the VFW I accidentally went to tonight.

2
TheRevanchist

After VFW Indian food, you probably have another howitzer ready to go from the rear admiral. Hey-yo!

Jayden Daniels should absolutely be a Top 10 draft pick. When you have a chance to take an LSU QB high you absolutely have to do it.

Just back from Mexican food at the place where no one in the kitchen is over 5’4″, and all somewhat darker in complexion than this author. Probably not coincidentally the food is delicious and the margaritas could bring down an elephant. I am stuffed and a bit buzzed.

Gonna be tough to get a beer or two in, but

Ok, yep, yep, that did it. I need several beers, and I need them now.

We drove by a Dick’s sporting goods store today, and I said to my son, “Dicks! Get it?” And he rolled his eyes and then I said, “I tell you what, if there was a store called ‘Big Tits’, I’d definitely check it out.”

He was mortified, embarrassed, but completely laughing his ass off.

I’m a good father.

At a previous job a female attorney was trying to order some sporting goods. She put ‘Dicks.com’ in the search and, well, turns out that’s not the sporting goods facility.

For the four of us that aren’t in Vegas, here’s a little summary of traffic atrocities I’ve witnessed today:

–I was almost tboned by a Maryland driver blowing right through a four way stop when I was already in the intersection
–A dude walking somewhat briskly across a four lane expressway
–A series of cars driving on the shoulder at high speed on the highway
–A Lyft driver ignoring everything I said about traffic and route to take a series of dangerous turns that saved us between 3 and negative 5 minute.

Very glad I’m in for the night.

I’m actually a member of that post (John Lyons #3150) so I never go to the meetings. But if you were to mention the guy who transferred in from California they’d know.
