Senor Weaselo, this title sucks, is everything fine? Yes, except, again, the FF name guide just needs to be out before the end of the month. Today’s the 7th, the DFO leagues (both?) draft(s?)—okay, at least the freezer vodka league draft is in three weeks, so I got time. (If you have any good names, feel free to bring them up and you too may receive a shout-out akin to GTD’s comments of the week!)
I originally thought about going to watch the game tonight because I’m on break from the Jewish calendar, but then got invited to all-you-can-eat Brazilian (Balls’s eyes perk up) barbecue (Balls’s eyes lower) so I don’t get to do that. Which is disappointing because yesterday got rained out, so I could have played my cards right and gone to a single-admission doubleheader. That’s on the bucket list in addition to the stadiums, because that would kick ass! Yes, I actually like baseball, so sue me.
So, what’s in the news?
-Brandon Aiyuk to the… … … Yinzers. UPDATE: Not yet.
-Brandon Harbaugh got out while the going was good, as he’s been hit with a four-year show cause penalty, unrelated to the Michigan probation.
-Injuries to Colts WR Josh Downs and Falcons WR Rondale Moore.
-FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT fines for the Giants and Lions to the tune of $200K apiece.
What Olympics are on tonight?
Primetime NBC: Men’s 110m hurdles semis; men’s 3m springboard semis; men’s 400m hurdles semis; women’s pole vault
Others:
Men’s team table tennis semis (Japan vs. Sweden, 8:00, USA)
Women’s field hockey semis (Belgium vs. China, 9:30, USA)
Men’s beach volleyball semis (USA vs. Qatar, 10:30, USA)
Women’s basketball quarters (USA vs. Nigeria, 11:30, USA)
NBC Tweaker Special (and not Fallon!): Men’s skate park, women’s rock climbing (11:35, NBC)
What about not the Olympics?
Well, you can’t even watch the White Sox losing streak, because they snapped that. So…
Baseball: RockingDog’s Rockin’ Team vs. Not Paul Skenes pitching so no one cares (SDP vs. PIT, in progress, FS1)
And there’s the Central American Cup if you have *zooms in on channel logo* Fox Soccer Plus.
In the meantime on writing time streaming there’s… the same stuff that’ll be going on in primetime when I’ll be at dinner, and probably better commentated, cool.
Emma Spitz is competing for Austria in the women’s Olympic golf tournament. I’m sure RTD can make a proper jest of this.

I feel like there’s a joke to be had about Walz being the Dr. Rick character from the Progressive Insurance commercials, trying fruitlessly to teach Trump and Vance how not to be weird.

Let the record show that the Aussie with the tremendous booty that was half hanging out of her shorts won the gold in the pole vault.
Just sayin’
Pictures or it didn’t happen
Oh, it happened!
Sweet
Doesn’t do it justice, but it’ll do until I find a better picture

Couldn’t find a good one, but trust me, she’s a winner.
On my HS track team (shot put and discus) the pole vaulters always impressed me as the best all around athletes.
I tried pole vault a couple of times. It is unbelievably difficult.
More to come
Great shot at the 2:36 mark

Gold medal display at the 3:45 mark.
Bummer “video not available in your country” … chit!
Stupid NBC!
Gumby said the American woman would have won, but her giant penis got in the way.
How are y’all watching the Olympics? Fubo proved pretty good for NFL and has all our local MLB games but we’re still missing a bunch of olympic stuff. Like, I would have liked to see the Turkish assassin or some surfing but NBC ain’t showing it in it’s prime time recap
The Dr. Mrs. found a good deal for a Peacock subscription so we’ve got that going for us, which is nice.
I got a good deal too. In exchange for being raped on a monthly basis by an Xfinity cable and internet package, I get Peacock for free!
I just inked a 2-year deal with Spectrum to get 500MB internet for $30/month. I assume that’s good, considering the ass-raping I’ll get if I don’t find another deal once the two years are up.
Assuming it works reliably, that’s a great deal.
Xfinity’s current offer is $35/mo for 300MB. I pay $250/mo with 1200MB and all the channels. Oh yeah, that also means I get HBO Max for free.
We were offered pretty much that same deal, but something like 75-80% of our HOA had to approve it. They had the vote a month ago, in the dead of summer. This place is mostly Canadian snowbirds, so not enough people voted. Idiots. It would have saved us about 60 bucks a month.
Peacock app. Their Gold Zone channel is amazing, their multiview (4 screens at a time) can be good, but you can’t pick the events. Otherwise, you get the world feed of every event.
And best, afterwards, you’ll have access to all the Premier League games not aired on NBC or USA.
Peacock is the best.
Party down!

Incredible that the Harris-Walz campaign is kinda basically this now, and it’s working.
That’s Rocking!
We can all use a little lightheartedness, I’m starting to think that Trump will lose just because people are tired of being miserable and having him rant on about how horrible everything is
Found a funny:
the first thing Walz will do when he’s elected is WD-40ing every squeaky door in the white house
The barbecue was good. The hot sauce was also good.
Deciding I needed a walk by walking up the stairs to my apartment was less good. Apartment Weaselo is on the 18th floor.
Dude
Why?
I’m tired just thinking about doing that many stairs
After the food I figured I needed a walk. Had it been that distance along the x- and y-axes it would have been a good walk. The z-axis, less fun.
Yeah, up is brutal
I climbed up to the tippy-top of the York Minster years ago, damn near killed me I was only 30, but I smoked back then. Oh by the way, the 26th anniversary of me quitting was the other day, on the 4th. I did it on my mom’s birthday. She would have turned a hundred this year! My grandmother damn near made it, she was 96. Gumby’s grandfather made it to 101.
It wa shuts last Wednesday. Fuck being old.

That two-piece couch is a real cock blocker.
Those flat and wide ottomans are just asking for it. /stares directly, licks air
Gym, Horseback, Dentist. Good to be home!
I went out and bought underwear and pie.
My favorite part of this AI art masterpiece is the fact that the computer just KNEW to use a Mets player without being prompted.
I think the diving is supposed to start tonight? I mean the scored diving into water, not FIFA
Just a reminder that 2 on 2 skimpy-ass female beach volleyball is good with everyone but 3-on-3 basketball is an insult to all legit sports…
As always, I have the solution
Yeah 3 on 3 is stupid. But dodge ball may be worth a look.
Baseball hasn’t mattered since the Blue Jays/Red Sox finally won the World Series. No one cares about any team from Chi. Ca Gra.
Fight me. Disagree with me a little bit.And the White Sox put the **** in Chi****.
69 comments on the last post, Balls, so you may want to lock that one down.
I was tempted to reply to one comment (I think it was one of yours, actually) but then I noticed.
Just like the UConn baseball team learned the hard way, YOU DON’T MESS WITH PERFECTION!
I tell you what, I do love me some Brazilian barbecue because it’s all you can eat.
I have a funny story about the one time I indulged in that.
Why yes, it involves farting.
DO TELL!
