It seems almost certain we get a Week 18 fixture, since Bills Mafia at LOLfins will be for the AFC East crown. But we take nothing for granted here at DFO. Eagerly await that schedule announcement, which is really the only good reason for watching…
Packers (+1) at Vikings (8:20, NBC)
Nobody wants to see this, though supporters of each will mostly hope to stay alive in playoff contention. Not like either squadron belongs in the tourney, but somebody’s got to claim that 7 seed (RRRRRRRRRRRRAM IT!! having punched their ticket this afternoon). Minnesota turns back to Jalen Hall as their “chip and a chair” play. You last remember Mr. Hall getting Trent Green’d in his initial career start, sparking the outer space fairy tale of Josh “Black Powder” Dobbs. He has Justin Jefferson this go around, so I suspect he will find MOAR success.
Everyone can throw on Green Bay, who also have their top CB suspended (for the weirdest scenario I can recall). They also have, like, 3 of their top WR out with injuries. This should really be quite the shitshow, as The Shield continues its world domination plan (by pulling in the Germans).
It seemed like total bullshit this matchup didn’t get flexed for Balmer/Miami…but then again, that fixture finished 56-19 (Scorigami!!). One just really never knows. See you in the comments. Or tomorrow, for National Hangover Day.
Happy New Year from DFO+1
Happy New Year, East Coasters!
Lynyrd Skynyrd: hey, so many of our band mates are dead, so we need these female guest singers to pick up the slack
Happy New Year east coast!
Happy east coast new year
Random back spasms to celebrate the new lap around the sun. That’s fun!
Sorry about your concussion
Trent Green locked himself inside his microwave oven looking for his leaf blower, so he understands.
This comment made my knee spasm
David Chao stuck a needle through my lungs to help my hangnail after reading this comment.
I got a joke:
On this day 8 years ago, I married my best friend.
My wife is still pissed. In our defense we were drunk and we thought it was funny as hell
And I screwed this joke up:
On this day 8 years ago, I married my best friend.
My wife is still pissed when i bring it up. In our defense, me and Mike we were drunk off our asses, and we thought it was funny as hell
Thinking about how many predators have forward facing eyes
LoL
And a strong, flavorless backside to deter becoming prey themselves.

I was trying to find this image when you made that joke earlier
Huh. LL Cool J is still a thing
There’s this weird sweet spot in playing on new years:
Famous enough that boomers, gently x, (and now millennials) recognize you
But not famous enough your schedule is booked.
I remember one year watching the B-52’s play, and I was like, were they ever popular?
Blasphemy!
.
Steelers-Ravens and Colts-Texans on Saturday.
That’s actually a smart decision.
Oh look, predictability in NFL scheduling.
Found a funny;
modern society is so divorced from our food sources that most people who eat pop tarts have never actually killed one themselves
This man rised and grinded while on leave.
It’s how he wins leagues while the rest of us win nothing.
Speak for yourself.
Live, from Atlantic Time.
FELIZ 2024 CABRONEEEEEEE
Feliz año Nuevo, you magnificent bastard.
¡FELIZ AÑO NUEVO!
Feliz ano nuevo!!
Happy New anus to you, too
¡FELIZ ANO NUEVO!
Cheers Stagger Lee!
After 8 yrs of playing Fantasy Football, I finally won the league I’m in!
My top scorer for the championship today was Chiefs kicker Harrison Butker!!!
Hahaha! 😆
It’s Rocking!!!!
🏈
Who’s a good boy?
He gets all the scritches. And a stern talking to for running away! Just kidding, more scritches, and the good spot on the couch!
Our most ROCKING GOOD BOY!

Mrs sharkbait had me put on the dick Clark. Ee years eve show. Of fucking course some country music act is the first thing I see. Something called Jelly Roll is country-rapping.
WineWife came home from Spain with the flu. Nothing historically bad could come from this, right?
Nope. Nothing bad at all…

Our oven broke 2 days before Christmas, so we had to order out for dinner. I can get used to late night new years eve Indian food
Butter chicken & naan is highly underrated.
Some condescending Indian fellow I know and dislike told me that butter chicken is what they feed babies. I said googoo waaaaah to you motherfucker, more butter chicken for me!
Fuck that guy.
Also, it’s amazing on pizza.
Good evening.
No, you’re drunk.
I’m going to have to step up my drinking game.
Likewise
I can help with that
Settle down Nostradamus!
Working on it.
Accurate, but somehow still offensive.
Oh look! Cabaret is on.
Wilkommen.
Danke schoen!
Wo findest du?
Happy New Year from the future!
Now if only this cab to the airport we ordered would arrive…
Uber was everywhere, prompt and cheap. I had the greatest ride to the airport in Porto.
There’s a good story.

Life is a cabaret, old chum.
One assumes NBC is asking The Shield to keep delaying the schedule drop?
Can’t see why. Everyone knows it’s going to be Bills – Dolphins.
In other sports, playing to the whistle is still a fundamental part of the game

See NFL referees would have found a way to throw a flag on #77 for, um, illegal hockey procedures.
I still haven’t forgiven the NHL refs for waving off that Hjalmarsson goal in game 7 of the western conference semis IN 2014
I don’t care if the blackhawks won in OT and won the cup, it was STILL bullshit
I would personally hunt down and burn those refs houses to the ground for that.
BLOW THAT FUCKING WHISTLE!
I’ve been hearing all this Gypsy Rose Blanchard news, and I had to ask Hermana Weaselo an important question:
Wait, they’re reviving the musical?
My dad directed Gypsy for the local theatrical society. I painted flats, moved sets and most importantly did curtains.
I was up on the catwalk during scene changes when the strippers changed outfits right below me.
I was 16.
Her grandpa Tully was a helluva wrestler.
Sounds like Bradley Chubb tore his ACL. Playing out the string of a 37-point loss.
Not a great week for the two active footballers for whom I own their jerseys.
I don’t think there’s any man in the world that could see the headline “Chubb Suffers Tear” without wincing at least a little bit in sympathy.
Okay, normally I’d ask if Romeo doubs did something to piss off his quarterback but I literally don’t know jack shit about Jordan love as a person so I can’t make jokes about his family or his other preferences
yea, this game about done already
TAKE.
THE.
POINTS.
YOU.
STUPID.
MEATHEADED.
JOCKS.
THIS JAREN HALL, I CALL HIM ARSENIO BECAUSE HE’S RUINING MY NIGHT WITH A TERRIBLE PERFORMANCE!

Jon Cryer should star in a sitcom called “I’ll Give You Something to Cry About” where he’s a suburban dad who abuses his kids. But not in a sad way, in a funny way.
THAT THROW I CALL IT THE GUYS WHO PUT THE WRONG KIND OF ANTIFREEZE IN MY JETTA AND WRECKED THE COOLING SYSTEM BECAUSE MAN WERE THOSE SOME HORRIBLE MECHANICS.
(snickers) you had a jetta

Airhead Brad Pitt is the best Brad Pitt.
He really is
After all the complaining I did about flexing this game out, it had better suck.
Probably late to the Congrats Sharkbait party, but Congrats Sharkbait!
Winning the Freezer Vodka FFL is no small feat, (Settle down Rex)
So, how is relegation going to work? 6 up 6 down?
I figured 3 up and 3 down. Is DFO Championship full up?
Looks like Scotchy, Litre, and Ayo are relegated, which means the league will be a lot less Canuckian next year.
I believe relegation starts next year.
This is their warning.
So sorry for gun-jumping. I will read the rules for carefully in the future.
HEY! Relegation starts after next year. Next season is just to establish the JV Vodka league for the johnny-come-latelies.
How is that going to work in an actual, like, Yahoo way? Or is it just “leave league, enter other league”?
I thought I was toast watching the Bills defense play American History X: the home game with the Patriots earlier
Also when should I expect the gently used fleshlight?
Currently being gently used.
Congrats. I woulda won if all my guys weren’t hurt and CeeDee Lamb had been shot in the first quarter.
Am I supposed to know who this “we look like a marshmallow” cell phone ad girl is?
Puffy Coats Rum Amok!
Zoe Saldana? She’s pretty famous.
Zoe Saldana, she’s hot enough to know about.
That’s Zoe? Heard of her but I’ve never seen any of her movies. Alas.
Yes, all ass.
Tis aight
If KJ Osborn does not go off (2 TDs), I will win my “been in it 30 years” league.
And thanks to those who tried to talk me into starting Tee Higgins. YOU MONSTERS.
In our defense, we all suck at fantasy football
Luckily I stuck with Achane (with Mostert being out), but still left Davante Adams on my bench because I too suck at pretend football.
I am proud of myself for not checking to see how much ass Week 17 Grimace Touched My Butthole would have kicked. Adams, Aiyuk, Breece Hall, Flowers, etc
Yeah that’s the worst. But the Commish (I think) wasn’t gonna be beat this week anyway.
So, until I’m dragged downstairs to “spend time with people”, I am now a free agent for the playoffs.
So what does anyone have to offer to support their team, not support their team or support their rival team?
You should beat off. That will keep you from getting dragged downstairs at all.
If Bearsenschiesse pull the rabbit out of their arseholes, the ENTIRE CLUBHOUSE must support them. Chaos demands it.
I hope this ends in a tie

You want a Cleveland Steamer?

Good evening.
I am very full from dinner with Senorita Weaselo’s family. And now, ube babka!
There is another scenario where the Jaguars lose to Don T’s Magnificent Tits and the Steelers beat the Ravens and then Pittsburgh gets in.
GO TITS!!
#SeemsNice
/of all the wackadoo 7 seeds, I think Voodoo Tomlin would be the funnest
//in NFC, is CLEARLY Bearsenschiesse pulling the DRAW tonite
Rikki, realizing his TV’s audio is set to SAP and he will not have to hear anything that Collinsworth says (artist’s conception):
I would do that, but afraid I’d be unable to reverse the process later.
You could just hit the mute button…
inshallah, is what I have done
You can hear the TV over the vacuuming?
lol RAMMMMMMMMIT made the playoffs…what a silly league.
Kyren won me a VODKA BRONZE MEDAL so I say let’s RRRRRRRRRRAM IT!!
Yeah!
I got fifth place!
Well played, sir, tip of the hat.
It was quite the heavyweight fight!
SNF 18 being MIA/BUF seems almost certain. I’m picking the AFC South (Surly Duff) to pull the Saturday flexes. What y’all thinks?
I want CJ Stroud leading an imaginary team to the playoffs.
I like your idea for Saturday Other Hippo. Saints/Falcons early, with Bucs late.
This year’s clinching permutations are breaking my brain
bearistocrats not dead!
Do y’all require any Week 18 DRAWS? If so, tell us so we can root for same.
a draw tonight helps!
actually, a draw is NEEDED I believe
goddamnit, now I have to stay awake
0.1%
tie required

Oh, football Gods, I beseech thee. I offer the 2023 Bengals as a sacrifice.
What? They still have a game left; the season not technically dead.
Here, I thought you were referring to the opiate-induced constipation.
Lucky for me, I shit almost constantly. SOMETIMES
At least I don’t have that problem.
(reaches for a bottle of champagne)
What? Its 2024 somewhere!
are the bears…NOT eliminated yet?!?!?
I like Ryan George.

He’s funny
Apparently, the Steelers must beat the Ravens and the Dolphins must beat the Bills in order for Pittsburgh to make the playoffs.
bills can be eliminated despite having a shot at the #2 seed
yea, bills gonna lose
It’s in Miami too…
fuck both teams, but vikes winning with mullens would be funnier
or hall whatshisface
New Year’s live thread dances, too.
