I’d just like to say that if I comment early in this thread it means that I’ve mustered the courage to blow off my wife’s extended family’s Christmas get-together. I’ll continue to think about the consequences…
To The Game!
Broncos/Lions:
-More playoff desperation ahoy!
-Despite losing two of their last three Detroit still has a two game lead over Minny. (pending the outcome of this afternoon of course)
-Denver is in the midst of a large glut of 7-6 teams in the AFC itching for that sweet, sweet playoff appearance.
-Remarkably, with 4 more TD catches Courtland Sutton could double his career total. As for Jeudy? So much was promised this year but so little was delivered. What’s happening? The talent is undeniable-perhaps he needs a change in scenery but he’s not going to get a half-decent contract.
-LaPorta should have himself a very nice outing given that Denver’s somewhat stalwart D gives up a ton of yards to the tight end spot. With a bit of generosity they could surrender 1,000 yards before the season is done.
-Speaking of leaky D’s, the Lions have given up an average of 30 points in their last five games. Only an explosive offense has prevented them from having a losing record over that span.
-If the Broncos can steal the road win here they’ll most certainly reach the post-season because they face sub .500 teams the rest of the way.
-Goffing is Goffing up the ball to the tune of two per game down the stretch. Not good.
Have a lovely evening.

Solid show tonight, now to… oh goddammit, it’s after midnight, everything’s running local.
And there’s a switch problem at 145th. Greeeeat.
Looks like the clock has struck midnight for the Broncos.
Ok I’m back from the Future and it turns out, Quarterback Dress Football actually isn’t that bad! You guys are gonna love it!
Back from the party. Still not sure what the fuck “milk punch” is, but I had three before switching to bourbon. Sharky, over to you.
Semen. You drank three servings of semen.
Mix anything with booze and it’s not gonna be THAT bad.
Sprots are stoopid.
Clots over Stillers 30-13
Leaves over Ice Stillers 7-0
Rick Pitino’s child over WVU 81-73
Bon Scott AC/DC still fucking rules.

hey, at least Donks can’t un-WOO!! my RedZone Sunday. You go Flanders-y enough, there’s always a silver lining.
I got distracted by a jigsaw puzzle. Looks like the LioUns are doing pretty well.
The NFL really need a Fair Catch Buzzer to sound when a Fair Catch is signaled. #1 didn’t see the Fair Catch, he was tracking the football. Props to him though, when you’re the asshole in the situation, best you can do is accept it, apologize and don’t defend yourself.
Yep. Broncs are a dirty team. Much like the Raiders and the Chargers.
Down four scores with 11 minutes left in the game and they’re punting? Broncos are clearly waving the white flag.
Followed by an immediate act of perfidy!
They learned it from Leonidas and the Spartans!
The last battle of Leonidas and his troops. 300 (youtube.com)
I turned it off once it became clear I wouldn’t get any garbage time goodies for Cort Sutton and Grimace Touched My Butthole.
Vokda Hippo will sail into the raging semis, though.
Payton punting there is about as blatant a white flag as you’ll ever see north of the Mason-Dixon Line.
Martha Ford is gonna have two pudding pops tonight!
Not sure why Payton is hollering at Wilson. Wilson isn’t the one hoarding challenge flags.
or kicking FGs from the 5 down 3 goddamned TDs
There’s that, too.
Wilson should throw a pick-6 on the first play here, then flip off Payton.
Full ‘Bad News Bears’ Yankees pitcher move.
I wish this performance said MOAR about Detroit than Denver, but even my mango/navy-coloUred glasses can’t fool me into believing it.
You guys wanna see a dead body?

Pat Mahomes now got the refs calling offensive offsides on everybody!
Broncos just scored TDs on three straight plays and now have to kick a FG.
The NFL officiating continues to be atrocious.
That was disgraceful.
UCLA playing their best half of football all season. Inspired by Gronk no doubt.
lol and they give up a 66 yard TD run, will I never learn

Pleased to announce the hot chocolate has been made.
Marshmallows or whipped cream?
Marshmallows. Little ones.
I bought these chocolate covered stir sticks with tiny marshmallows stuck on them as part of my SILs’ Christmas present. I hope they’re as good as they look.
21-0? Damn, did Russ run out of propane?
He’s getting into smoking now, slow and low.
Nano bubbles
That is some ” I just pulled a train in the jock dorm” hair.
Amon-Ra St. Brown just made every highlight reel for tonight.
Yep, surprised there was no flag when he kicked the football after the TD.
“Have that worker drone fined!”
R. Goodell
Speaking of leaky D’s
That’s why you wear underwear
Or a bra.
I feel as though Trent’s brain is on a 7 second delay.
/Trent’s brain, lying in a hammock and sipping a margarita
What’s that, now?
Remember when everyone, yours truly included, thought the Rams got the worst of it when they took Goff and the Eagles took Palmer?
Boy, those were the days.
It’s all ok because #ShamePizza will allow me to eat my feelings.
I propose a vote before the house.
The term “Chunk play” or its derivative “Chunks” shall be stricken from the announcers vocabulary hence forth!
The only variation is if a lineman has the nick name of “Chunks” because that would be cool.
Seconded.
I second, but also move that we consider “chunk play” for use when a fat guy has a nice return on a turnover but doesn’t score.
I remember I really wanted the Cowboys to draft Surtain, then the Broncos took him and Dallas had to settle for Micah Parsons and that’s why I shouldn’t be a GM.
Unlike BFC I took a pre-dinner nap and have no social obligations to speak of after having been out three straight nights.
You know you’re on the losing side of 50 when you’re unreasonably excited about staying in while wearing flannel pajamas and maybe, just maybe, getting nuts enough to make hot chocolate after 9:30 pm!
I think DangeRuss may have just seen Jesus on that last sack.
Oy, I took a post dinner nap and cannot believe I’m managing to will myself to a social obligation in another neighborhood now.
And by can’t believe I mean I’m questioning every decision I’ve made that’s led me into this Uber.
Will there be booze at this social obligation?
Of course, I don’t (voluntarily) hang out with Mormons
#TriumphOfTheWill
I don’t know how many reusable bags a person needs, but I’m pretty sure I have far, far more than that
They multiply like rabbits. I have a zillion too, but I consistently forget to put them in my car, and then I have to pay 10 cents a shame bag at Vons. I am not a good hippie, except for the weed!
This game so far:
Donks strategy of not blocking the Loins defenders is…interesting?
Chunky TD!
Correction, in the general direction of a TD
uhhhhh, that wasn’t super charming
D-O-N-K-S WOO!!!!!!
Lol, fat guy fumble recovery and jog towards the end zone.
fortunately just cost us field position. Because WOO!!!!
So uh, Stillers ain’t gon Tah to superbowl are they
Even the shitty bowl games are shitty.
I want a refund.
So what did I miss today?
Well besides football, rest and relaxation, personal comfort, and lots of holiday cookies.
Hopefully the end of the Mitch Trubisky Experience
I thought he had already been put out of our misery.
I meant permanently!
Colleen Whatsername is giving peak slutty Angie Dickinson does the entire Ratpack, except Joey Bishop because eww vibes.
Selfie in the doors of the Bradbury Building
Downtown Los Angeles, 12/16/23
That’s the one with all the cool iron galleries inside, right?
yes
Gorgeous!
You’re taller than I imagined.
Love those old doors.
Lot of buildings in Waterbury and Naugatuck have that kind of architecture. Unfortunately there are no businesses in those buildings anymore and they’ll likely all deteriorate beyond saving.
Does Trent Green know where he is right now?
His eye focus was a bit unsettling, wasn’t it?
T’was able to gather the courage. The fallout is another matter altogether.
These are interesting teams, you chose correctly. As a fellow old, you can go without sex a few weeks.
It’s not releasing the Kraken, but let go Rangers
Solid seats, excellent viewing.
Montana/NDSU is quality appetizer FITBAW
No Westwood Klavern for you??
well, it’s my flippy option now. But the JV-JV ending swas excellent
GRIZ!
What a bananacakes finish
what is their version of BOW DOWN?
GRIZ!
At least that’s all I’ve heard.
best to keep it simple with y’all prospector types
