Everton have been playing dreadful footy since the calendar flipped to 2024, but hey – at least I caught wind of another beautiful woman (Giulia Bould, of BBC Merseyside) who shares my Toffees life sentence. At least we’ve built ample character these last few years!
And thank Mother of Fuck, we have actual fixtures to look forward to again. DST is still askew, so early morning is not-so-early, when the Bonesaws meet the Hammers (8:30, USA). The Toolshed Derby?
Your 11:00 window is jam-packed with mediocrity, USA maybe picking the worst of the lot to show (Robins Hood v. Palace). Everyone should stream the yeah right, Hippo! Derby (Cherries welcome Everton to the South Coast, presumably for another dry bumming session).
As if to make up for that dross, you get an Afternoon Delight doubleheader. Sadly, it’s just Villa/Wolves (1:30, NBC) and Men Untied pilgriming off to Praise Beesus (4:00, Peacock). Still, it beats watching paint dry.
Big NBC is back for Easter Sunday glory, with the King’s Afrikan Water Pistols invading City of Men (11:30, NBC). Nothing much at stake, just the Title. No pressure, lads.

Kim Mulkey is just a total piece of shit.
We have zero qualms.
No,no!
Now we got “Pay Attention” rain.
Someone should warn the prairie states.
On second thought, let’s not warn them.
Rockies will take most of the energy out before it gets to the prairies.
This system is kind of scattered but it’s got a couple of real mean clouds.
Did anyone else read Piers Anthony?
It’s a proper rainy motherfucker outside right now.
Stupid fucking impressive Doyers
I’m about 20 miles? As the crow flies!
I can’t even watch them on my TV.
Dodgers and the OC are blacked out.
Every game.
Gotta pay extra so Ohtani can make up
his gambling debts, uh, I mean the millions of dollars he paid to an illegal bookmaker to cover his interpreter’s gambling debts!I’ve seen kittens do this, and I always liked watching a creature who was in a perfect state of joy.
It’s taken me 2 full days to even process the Laurie Anderson show.
That was one of the most perfect things I’ve seen in my life.
Me and TAJ did tai chi with Laurie Anderson!
I had something happen that never happened to me at a show.
She played a song, the visuals got going and a flood of tears started pouring down my face.
This was the song.

The latest viewing of the Ten Commandments seemed eerily familiar to me for some reason. In 33 or 34 centuries, the people have gone from rejecting the Golden Calf to doubling down on the idolatry.
Oooh Aussie footy on live at a reasonable hour on a Saturday night. That’s good!
But it’s the West Coast Eagles. That’s bad.
The rookie Harley Reid actually looks like he’s living up to the hype. That’s good!
But that margin….that’s really bad.
Can I go now?
yes.
would yew lookit them resilient #BFIB ain’t no wonder they’s The South’s team!
Happy Easter, you goyim!
Really, it is a damned excellent point. It wasn’t even a FITBAW SEASON weekend!!
Plus some theorize that Jesus went down to Hell, or proto-Hell, and collected the souls of all those who died before He died who were worthy of Heaven but couldn’t enter because they were cursed by Original Sin and couldn’t enter Heaven without Jesus paying the cost for their sin, and sent them all up to Heaven before he returned to life on Sunday.
THIS SON OF GOD, STEPSON OF A CARPENTER, AND SON OF A BITCH GAVE UP HIS WEEKEND TO HELP PEOPLE HE’S NEVER EVEN MET IN HIS LIFE MOVE!
If he doesn’t meet the worthiness of being someone’s savior, I’d like to see someone who does.
At least as obligatory on Easter weekend as The Ten Commandments.

You speak with conviction and I respect a man who speaks with conviction.
Oh good, Chris Weidman is fighting.
Love seeing senior citizens with two bad legs getting the absolute shit kicked out of them.
Stay in school, kids.
This fight is not helping my argument that MMA is not gay porn at all.
AT. ALL.
(Note: The same cinematographer (Karl Freund) who shot this German Expressionist film in the 1920s also filmed every episode of “I Love Lucy” in the 1950s)
Metropolis!
It’s actually “M” and was in fact shot by Fritz Arno Wagner, but the sentiment is still the same. My mistake.
No. The one in my head!
Found a funny:
DOG GENIE: you have three wishes
DOG: I wish for a big ham
*two big hams appear*
DOG GENIE: lol me too ok this one’s on me
#4 on Clemson has serious money on the Alabama money line
Usually when a coach says this nothing happens. In this case, hoo boy.

Announcer: “Boy I’ll tell you, Reese can really take an elbow!”
Me: “OK, yes, but the object is NOT TO DO THAT!!”
Now to watch some UFC or, as Mrs. Horatio calls it “your gay porn.”
“look woman, do you want me revved up to perform later, or not?”
She’s not wrong.
Get a room guys!
I don’t think I’m prepared to live in a world where CLEMSON makes the Final Four.
I’m of a similar feeling towards purdue
We’ve seen a black president and a cubs world series win. Never say never
I’ve been to purdue and I’m still not convinced it’s an actual university
I haven’t been there and I feel same.
It’s for computer needs, mechanical nerds, people who couldn’t get into IU, and the occasional vet
The vet is my brother
Is it in Wyoming?
Speaking of, wonder if UConn folks are using Barry’s “Please proceed, Governor” meme with respect to Illinois’ coach pre-game statements.
Specifically, “if he blocks 100 shots, he blocks 100 shots”
“I haven’t watched much film of UConn…”
Goddamn, Underwood: did you watch any!?
UConn women have give up 13 points to Duke.
At the half.

Someone nearby explaining RFK to their kids. Can’t tell the politics as yet, kid is teens
I took my wife out to dinner, since Saturday is date night and having a bunch of 18-22 year-olds ruin that seems silly.
But I did keep track of the game and how in the hell does any team put a 30-0 run on another team in the Elite Eight? I saw Illinois’s coach say they were going to keep going at Clingan when they were down 5 and I thought he was just being misleading but holy god I guess not.
Before Jesus can rise, I must Release the Kraken!¡!!
ice donks playoff bound
(something the regular footbaw donks arent gonna know for quite some time)
About those UCONN fans’ prior nervousness….?
Suffice it to say, they covered the -8.5 spread.
now if a college player takes taco bell as their NIL youd think that would be detrimental to performance
paige bueckers built different
uconn men playin like the uconn women used to do at their peak
I don’t recall ever seeing a side score TWENTY-FIIVE points in a row to start the half. Just bonkers.
Just hand them the title now. Oof.
It only took 24 years or so but wifey has come around to the fact that her mother is a manipulative sociopath. I’d run around the living room in my underwear in celebration but I sprained my ankle and it really hurts.
pill stash?
As an expert in the field, I’m looking at Hydromorphone, Tylenol 3 and Tramadol. What say you?
DEFFO hydromorphone
Limping around the living room or half sitting up from the couch in celebration are also totes acceptable!
What trivial thing did you do to sprain it?
Stepping down from the last step of my loft and thinking there was one more step. Fuck Sakes!
Hate when I do that or when going up I think there’s another step
Hope you heal soon
Oh yeah, that’s a fun one.
Danny Hurley HT rage, apparently worked yet again.
Sometimes books is scary. I finished Charles Frazier’s Thirteen Moons this week, and the main characters in the narrator’s story are named…Claire and Bear.
/notable to me because one of my chill’uns is named Claire (after a very good platonic friend in college, who was of French ancestry), and I always called her Claire Bear as a little girl
Illinois was supposed to be this offensive juggernaut, and it’s 23-28 at the half. Yikes.
It’s Illinois so may be the other sort of offensive
ooh, shaaaaddddeeeee
Maybe the stench of Iowa and Indiana (seriously, both states smell like a giant hog or sheep excrement pile) drove that state cray-cray
It’s all the Midwest
