So many things going on at the same time in the sport that unites us on this here blog. Let’s Go!
Fallout:
-The Narrative has, rightly, been blowing up the efforts of Dobbs and Stroud for putting together thrilling performances under adverse conditions. Myself, I’ve never, ever said, “I got to watch those Texan highlights again!” But of course, due to inexperienced qb’s getting put in before they’re ready, there was some atrocious play. Oh, Dobbs has been announced as the starter next week, ostensibly for his heroics but really because the Vikes have no other options.
-Speaking of no options, DeVito is the clear starter for the Giants until he gets crushed behind the worst o-line in football. You may say that’s hyperbole but then I’d ask you to actually name one. The Next Victim Up is Matt Barkley, who last played in 2020 and hasn’t started since 2018.
-I hate to pile on the league’s rb’s now that their status, for the most part, has been assigned as ‘interchangeable’ but only one of their clan rushed for 100 yards yesterday. Just one. Here’s a few team-leading runners and their totals-Mixon 37, JT 47, Freeman 32, Bijan 51, Taysom 52, Singletary 26, Walker 16 and Tune 28.
-Beware Baltimore: They’ve beaten Seattle and Detroit (two teams that should make the playoffs and will certainly be above .500 at year’s end) by a combined score of 75-9.
-Black Magic Mike: There have been 34 teams that have been outgained in their first 8 games of the season. The Steelers are the only squadoo that has a winning record.
-The Texans have reached 4-4, thrilling their one dementia-ed fan that thinks that they’re Sam Houston-he was such a nice boy-but they do have the Browns D, the Jets, Jags and Bengals on the sked ahead.
To The Game!
Chargers/Jets:
-Somehow, New York can get to within a half game of the lead in the AFC East with a win tonight.
-That drooling sound you heard was Mack and Bosa after they heard that the Jets are on their fifth set of o-line starters so far this year.
-Watch Donald Parham vulture a TD. Actually, it would be his 5th this year so he wouldn’t really be a vulture at that point would he?
-Breece is a beast in the run game, cruising along at 5.7ypc but that comes to a screeching halt in the red zone where the team is last in the league in converting scoring opportunities.
-Darius Davis’, a Chargers starting wr, receiving prop earlier this week was 7 yards. It’s since climbed to 17 or so but it still looks good.
-Sudbury, Ontario (not Vegas) has Staley’s ‘bone-headed decision that compromises his team’s chances to win’ at 1.5.
Now get out there and have some fun!
I keep seeing that commercial on mute, and my brain is all liek Why the fuck is Johnny Cash dressed up like Napoleon?
MIL: Why do they keep making movies about that guy.
Me:Who, Napoleon?
MIL: Yeah, him.
Me: If there’s been any movies about Napoleon come out lately, I haven’t seen them.
MIL: *grumble* whatever.
“I don’t like all these slants.”
Bill Parcells, who is not watching the game.
I only needed the Heretics D to score less than 5 points to win tonight.
Just did the math. The Pats kickoff at 4:30am for me next week. I dont think I’ll be up for that*
*Unless Sharkbait 2.0 is having a tough time adjusting, I just might end up being awake anyway…
Yeah, you’re gonna wanna knock on wood on that one.
Back in the day I had an encyclopedic knowledge of World’s Strongest Man competitions, because that was what ESPN was showing every morning between 2:00 and 5:00 am, the hours my son apparently decided were when he would thrive.
Mariusz Pudzianowski!
Gesundheit!
Not kidding, he was the first guy I saw win.
Then that Viking giant, Magnus ver Magnusson showed up.
Oh his manic hour is already established at 8:30-9:30. Until the time change fucked him up
I watched lots of JV NFL “replays” with my oldest child during those hours.
Why do the Jets have the 7th highest pass rate in the NFL?
Ah. They’re 14th in pass rate over expectation. It’s their offense sucking and then needing to pass more.

This looks incredibly stupid and I am going to watch it at least twice.
Unlike, say, this game.
Makes my brain hurt to see shit like that. “What can I do with this $100M? I know, I’ll do a remake of The Fall Guy!”
the fact every sack has to be a discussion about roughing is a disgrace
“There’s an impossible amount of good looking girls in Sudbury.”

god: you canadians have to live in canada, which is cold as fuck and barren as shit
also god: but you can have a sizable population of fucking hot ass tail that’s sizzling
Do my ears deceive me, or have the Jest started doing the fog horn like New England does when on defense?
Doesn’t matter, they both stole it from the Whalers, who used that, (and I’m pretty sure stole it from someone else), after their dipshit management decided that the iconic Brass Bonanza needed to be ditched.
Wasn’t it Brian Burke who nixed it?
Might have been. All the piss poor Whaler’s management teams sort of run together for me.
The post-Track Suit era in Morganhole starts with a win over Missouri State (who went to the NCAA Tournament last March).
Is Huggy Bear still claiming that he didn’t resign, or did he let that one go?
He’s been forced to let it go. Rehab ahoy!
I need 13 points from Herbert. By the way did you guys ever give him a nickname?
Kid Clearasil?
I just call him Herbie.
Mickey Mouse Quarterback
if you let a 3 man rush get to your quarterback it should be an additional 15 yard unsportsmanlike penalty on YOU. gtfo
Anybody got a good eggplant recipe? I cook it with a Chinese garlic sauce recipe, but I’d like to diversify some.
I like a good parm myself, but I’ve never in my life turned my nose up at anything cheesy and fattening.

I’m a fan of this Romanian eggplant salad/dip
If you like fish, this is good

UConn squeaked by NAU, 95-52.
Growing up, one of the few comic books I read was Sgt. Rock and the spinoff Haunted Tank.
We played War back then, which was basically an excuse to ultimately tackle each other and throw punches.
One day, as we were deciding who would be what character in the comic book, my cousin fucking walloped our friend, Jeff. I mean cleaned his fucking clock.
Why? Because Jeff wanted to be Ice Cream Soldier.
You want to be ice cream soldier you better be prepared to earn it.
Sgt. Rock ruled. My mother hated it, which made it rule even more.
How do you suppose the ghost of Jeb Stuart felt about their new African-American crewmember?
“Following a disastrous mission engineered to rescue the son of their commanding officer, General Norton, from a German P.O.W. camp (based on the Task Force Baum incident), the crew of the Haunted Tank find themselves stranded behind enemy lines and spend several issues fighting their way back to the front. During this, they pick up Gus Gray, an African American soldier who had escaped from the same P.O.W. camp. Days later, Arch dies saving them from an exploding suicidal German tank and Gus takes his place in the crew.”
He was a kindler, gentler, Jeb Stuart.
“Sorry ’bout that whole slavery thing.”
Schwarzenegger apparently just wandered off the show.
Robert Patrick walked into his kitchen.
He’s banging the housekeeper.
The J-E-S-T rallying in the second half would be Peak Chargering.
How does KFC constantly get away with having black actors in its commercials?
See what happens when they don’t?
https://ifunny.co/video/kirk-cousins-says-fried-chicken-makes-wrs-work-harder-for-7B5oXp2pA
Racist: Black people love fried chicken and watermelon!!!
Me: (Fried chicken in one hand, big ol’ chunk of watermelon in the other) And?
I’ve finished my hot chocolate and really can’t see a reason to finish this game.
Not nearly enough marshmallows.
I will say that the Manning brothers
basically calling the Chargers coach a retar, I mean, criticizing the Chargers head coach for yet more questionable decision making makes for some interesting viewing.Damnit Ekeler
I’m surprised the Chargers didn’t got 4-and-out after that bizarre penalty.
I do not understand how it’s the Chargers player’s fault that the Jets sub knocked him over while running in from the sidelines.
Just a lonely picture of the Ocean City, MD boardwalk.
This game is a bigger joke than that donkey
Also, you can fucking cram DTS up your ass.
I was sitting at my desk today and had an aneurysm or whatever counts for it. Just complete brain freeze. For a moment, I saw into another dimension where Peter King was intelligent.
Fucking weird.
Schwarzenegger, no kidding, called that TD just before the play.
Aaaaaaaand now it’s called back
Am I high or does there seem to be a large contingent of Chargers fans in the stands?
Why is everyone on the sidelines wearing Carhartt sweatshirts?
I’m gonna guess, since it’s the NFL, gobs of money were involved.
It’s November so it’s the NFL pretends to care about veterans month.
Yeah, pseudomilitary outfits for Veterans’ Day.
I like them. Better than the camo monstrosities they usually trot out.
I will never believe Eli ever benched 320
Anyone else watching the Manningcast? Schwarzenegger brought some ass with him.
I was just going to post this.

Due to everything I’ve heard, I think I really need to visit Sudbury, Ontario….
I would follow Nat into a woodchipper.
I may know of someone who can help with the “into the wood chipper” part in Northern Ontario.
Yeah, shit, I really needed to think that comment through.
I would crawl nekkid across a parking lot full of broken glass and rinse off the shards with lemon juice for 30 seconds with Nat.
The last season stepped things up a notch.
It did, but I couldn’t get that photo to post.
It turns out that there is more than one photo on the internet
You’re doing the lord’s work, man.
Nat’s a sniper.
“I thought you didn’t date sluts, Nat”
“I’m not. I’m going to fuck him.”
The Shield wants me to go to bed early, how thoughtful.
Damned shame I had that blissful 3-hr nap earlier. To the Gilkey-verse!
“Well then you can stay up and watch highlights and pre-Undisputed analysis BUT DON’T YOU FUCKING CLICK OVER TO PBS!!!!”
-R Goodell, Iron Pipe Carrier
good, game over. dont put the jets on primetime ever again
dammit chargers, put this damn game away already
Hey, Eli likes turtles.
Shocking.
But his mom had to put the stuffed turtle he likes into the closet at night, cause it was a little scary.
I just sat on my balls, and the J-E-S-T did that.
Hm.
to be a Jest supporter is to ALWAYS be sitting on your bollocks
I don’t usually drink during the week, but I’m going to get a little crazy tonight.
/prepares hot chocolate
//adds whipped cream
///adds tiny marshmallows
Look out world!!
I have stuff for hot chocolate, but I don’t have tiny marshmallows. Now I’m sad. It’s going to take a whole lot of weed to make me feel better, be right back
How great would it be if someone got forced out of bounds right into Q-A-RON and ruptured his spleen?
The refs would have to summon Blergh herself to apply a penalty severe enough to appease the NFL Ownership Family.
‘We had a nice visit with Aaron Rodgers…”
Well now I know you’re lying, Joe Buck.
He asked them to leave thru gritted teeth rather than physically kick them out. It was nice.
“we had a nice visit with Aaron Rodgers, he spoke to us while floating in his sensory deprivation tank.
I think the Chargers have a real advantage here, because with everyone loudly cheering for the other team it’s gonna be just like a home game for them.
THE MAN ISN’T EVEN PLAYING AND I HAVE TO HEAR ABOUT HIM IN THE PREGAME
Is it me? Are they talking about me?
GOD I WISH
Well it won’t be timely information if they have to hold it until Tuesday evening!!!
Wow, a Formula One race in Vegas? Hey, we should get the DFO crew together and go to Vegas for the ra…
Oh. Oh right.
Here’s the sportsbook at the Fandango casino where we all watched the big game:
Were there thunderbolts and lightning?
Another view:
Is that chick vaping double-fist in there!?
send the chargers to the dying pac 12 if they cannot even beat the jests
SillyCuse is playing man-to-man and running and gunning. It’s only New Hampshire but it’s wonderful.
HERESY!!!
Chasing 60 points tonight, not sure Breece and Ekeler will outscore Herbert by that much…
Fucking Cleveland defense boned me
I need Breece to go off, and Ekeler to do fuck all tonight.
UNC is having trouble with Radford, which I thought was an all-Women’s school.
Is it a spelling bee? I would imagine that UNC would have trouble with those.
I decided to take down the Halloween decorations, put the new mattress cover on, do a bunch of dishes and laundry, AND cleaned out the garbage disposal.
You might infer I’ve been productive procrastinating at work.
MRs. Fozz is making a roast. That goddamn thing better be perfect or there will be blood on the moon.
How’s she really gonna mess up a roast? Come on now.
Fuck me I just checked who’s playing tonight. Do I really want to put myself through this?
UConn is opening their national title defense against Northern Arizona tonight. About a 1/4 of the way through the game and they’re up by 18.
Man, I hope NAU got paid for this.
Here’s some shots I took at the DFO Vegas Con this morning, at the Plaza where we had a prayer breakfast and then went gambling:
Now I want pancakes.
I want Dr. Tongue to serve them to me!
what the fucking shit is up with those face distortions? i’m getting nightmares tonight.
He spared us the nightmares from real faces though.
