Second Helping? Don’t Mind If I Do. Another Open Thread

As I type Goff is having a bit of a rough day. No turducken for him today. None for me either, not that I have the option. But I haven’t fumbled a few times and thrown some wobblers either. So who is really coming out of this comparison if you eliminate fame, money and youth? Me, that’s who. I’ll not be taking any questions.

To The Game!

Commies/Cowboys:

-I mentioned last week that Dallas was good at neck-stomping this year. It’s now six times that they’ve won a game by 20 or more points.

-Seems like Rivera is on his way out and I think this is his last head coach gig. The thing I find ironic is that if Washington is tearing things down and doing a rebuild, Riverboat Ron is the perfect coach to oversee it. Alas, his time there has run it’s course and it does seem like it’s time to move on.

-Dallas has to put this tilt to bed because their next five games-Seahawks, Philly, Bills, Fins and Detroit-all feature teams with a winning record.

-League-leading thrower Howell had three INT’s last week, including one that was run back for a score. DaRon Bland’s ears are ringing. (he’s had 4 pick-sixes so far this year)

-Oof! I wandered over to a Cowboys site and saw that they have a ‘Ref’s Report’, basically a breakdown of how many yards the Cowboys and their opponents get penalized. They also run a feature on the ref reffing the game and whether they have a winning record when he’s adjudicating. What a miserable loser’s mentality.

-The Commies o-line is not coming together as the season progresses. (I know a thing or two about that) Over the last 4 games Howell has been pressured 65 times. That’s Danny Dimes-like numbers! Perhaps we’ll see a bit of Jacoby Brissett whether we want to or not.

-CeeDee Gets an ‘A’: Opposing #1 wr’s have done well vs Washington’s secondary-A.J. Brown has gone for 175 and 130, Diggs 111, Metcalf 98 and DJ Moore 230. No wonder Lamb’s prop is so high. (I saw 96 somewhere)

Keep it going.

I don’t know about you guys but when Cris says “OBJ” I still think “Osama BenJarvus.”

yeah right

I ain’t vegetarian this week no more

Woof.

Gumbygirl

Birds don’t count. Fish either. Mammals is meat.

Brocky

My fantasy team needed that

King Hippo

9 minutes until we can pre-Dobbs this nonviable festus and enjoy us some Egg Bowl (coo-coo-ka-choo!)

Mr. Ayo

How dare you ignore the HOX!

BrettFavresColonoscopy

Geno better throw 2-4 TDs to DK

King Hippo

In 50 minutes, Hippo will multi-screen y’all in. Vodka Hippo has Charbonnet to support, after all.

Gumbygirl

Nothing says Thanksgiving like a good abortion joke! Attaboy!

Brocky

This made me think of another type of boating that would be relevant to dolly Parton

King Hippo

EAT SHIT Rebecca Malone.

Brocky

Dolly Parton making me ask the hard questions:

Do you prefer the term G-Milf, or Gilf?

ThePirateSloth

you around?

Gumbygirl

About to put away some food, Happy Thanksgiving my darling dears!

BrettFavresColonoscopy

Wine before liquor, let’s fucking go, right?

makeitsnowondem

All my beer today’s been liquor barrel aged, so I think I’m technically safe to switch.

King Hippo

You really were blacked out for the Giants game last week, eh?

Dad: “I don’t know why Dolly Parton is so popular.”
Me (thinking): “I can think of at least two reasons.”

Senor Weaselo

I could be three to three dozen things!

I’m off to dinner in a little bit, so in case I don’t pop back in until after Fozz’s liveblogging of horrible in law-ness, let me express being grateful for you all in the clubhouse. You give me an outlet to write jokes and serious-ish ish and you’ve even managed to provide some damn good IRL times. To paraphrase the sage words of George Carlin on the silver screen, continue being excellent to one another.

Even at 77, Dolly is so much better than Jack Harlowe.

makeitsnowondem

Gentlemen.

King Hippo

what did you do to turn Donks WOO!! around??

makeitsnowondem

The only thing I can think of is I haven’t worn the Surtain jersey in a bit.

herodotus450

Don’t know how ya’ll do it, watching like 45 minutes of football today has re-driven me insane.

Gonna tell my kids this was the pet headcrab from Half-Life 2.

King Hippo

The problems:

1) You are good at what you do (NOT a Hippo problem)
2) Your co-workers know they can pull you in without repurcussions (also a Hippo problem, am an absolute pushover)
3) You feel guilty for switching off (I feel guilt 24/7 but not specifically related to that)

King Hippo

RRRRRRRRIIIICCCCOOOO!

(suave)

Anyway, again, happy Thanksgiving and have fun drinkin, eatin’, enjoyin’ footy and sword duels to the death with that one relative/friend . I’ll sod off to see watch the coverage of the “festivities” over here (latest rumour is that someone almost torched a Holiday Inn full of Ukries and other assylum seekers)

BrettFavresColonoscopy

I worked out this morning (NBD but I guess that makes me better than you) and the people on the teevee on the elliptical were trying to make the argument that DAK DAK DAK is the best QB in football right meow.

I did not unmute that shit.

King Hippo

He might not be the best QB IN TEXAS rite meow

Doktor Zymm

He is for sure the best QB named Dak in the NFL right now

King Hippo

Anyone else wonder why there was a Kenny Rogers patch on everyone’s kit today (earlier broadcast pointed out it was meant to be Madden)?

Senor Weaselo

I’M KENNY ROGERS AND THIS IS THE TURDUCKEN CHALLENGE.

King Hippo

Christ, with Rebecca Malone opposite, I kind of have to support the Cowpersons? Fucking gross, y’all.

And we are denied a #ShameBet because Dok ain’t around, and Horatio is at a MANSION instead of slumming it with us.

Doktor Zymm

There is never a good reason to support the cowpeople, meteorite always comes in a few slots ahead in the “who do I root for” decision tree

ThePirateSloth

Welp, time to hit the ole dusty trail and head to the bar.

Mr. Ayo

Oh snap, I need to get ready.

ThePirateSloth

I mean, I gotta get some liquid armor on before this game against the 49ers.

The first beer is always the hardest to get down.

next year marks the gosh darn 30th anniversary https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZHkABO0VwCg

I dun wet muh britches

bk109

Just wanted to pop by and say “Happy Thanksgiving to you folks”. Ah, and a PSA – always pack a balaclava, because you never know when spontaneous riots will erupt 😉

ballsofsteelandfury

We should do a “Where In The World is Carmen SanDiego” game with DFOers.

Bk109 and Dok would be excellent first choices.

herodotus450

The warr-ant

bk109

I’ll be a boring choice for that game, since I only have Dublin (ye of Parnell and O’Connell currently burning), Sweden and the Bay area in my immediate future (at least until the start of next year).

bk109

Since WP still doesn’t do edits… *sigh*
Edit: lol, apparently the Gardai’ve proven that they’re not enough so here come the IDF. I sure fucking picked the right time to go back to Eire 😀

HIPPO – Mah edit function? Still fine and dandy.

That’s because you’re part of the ancient lizard alien site-admin conspiracy that … uhhh … caused the MCU’s shitty writing and declining VFX quality to finally tank their box office?
