Welcome back folks and folkesses! This game may not be very many people’s cup of tea but we were gifted a 5 game late slate and two games on Monday night so the universe is just righting itself again. These Giants and Cowboys-I don’t think they’ve ever both been good at the same time for any extended period of time? NY was horrible in the 60’s and 70’s and then when the Parcells era came along Dallas was in their post-Staubach phase. Then when Jimmy Johnson came around the Giants were handed off to Ray Handey. I guess there was a period when Romo and Eli co-existed-that was fun. Ah well.
Notes:
Foot In Mouth Disease?:
I think that’s what Deshaun Watson might have. Commenting about designed runs he ventured-“I’m not a running back”. Well, listen, when you’re playing as badly as you are somebody should be advising you to say you’re all about the team and you’ll do anything to win. Thing is, he leads the team in yards per carry and actually has more total yards after contact than Jerome Ford on far less carries.
Back In The Folds:
That would be one KHunt. He’s been elevated from the practice squad to the 53 man roster. It was a long six years but we’re all aware of Andy’s philosophy when it comes to players, “The devil you know”.
To The Game!
Cowboys/Giants:
-not looking forward to this-it ain’t pretty
-Dak is 12-2 vs the Giants
-Dallas has won six straight and is 13-1 in their last 14 vs this squadoo.
-Lamb only has 13 grabs so far but Deonte Banks isn’t a #1 cornerback but he plays one on the Giants defense. I was hoping that Adoree Jackson could catch time in a bottle and help to bottle him but he’s a scratch this evening.
-Dallas has trouble running the ball-I guess that’s what naturally occurs when you go “All In” with a Zeke/Rico backfield.
-Dimes has gone two (2!) whole games without tossing a pick.
-The Giants D hasn’t sacked a Dallas QB since December 19, 2021.
-89-17 was the combined score between these teams last year.
-Singletary will rush for a TD and fumble the ball for the third straight game because that’s what he does.
Have a good time out there. I won’t.
As a frustrated Whalers fan I’d like to extend a hearty “fuck you” to John Fisher, and to paraphrase Stephen King, I hope you get stomach cancer while trapped in a part of the world that hasn’t discovered morphine.
I think the Coyotes really are the only franchise that has a legit excuse for moving. The As situation is hot garbage.
Oh yeah, the Coyotes are simply a failed franchise all the way around.
Never forget
nordiques are the other one
-shit-tier franchise (sadly, became great at the 11th hour)
-small market facing quickly increasing salaries
-that small market? ultra-french speaking
-weak canadian dollar in the 90s
hell, the lindros trade involved 15 million in cash, and they burned through it in just a few years, and were still facing massive debt
I was never sure how an NHL team in Quebec was supposed to compete with the Montreal Canadiens.
And it turns out they couldn’t.

Unfortunately your “fuck you” got stolen out of the Oakland parking lot before John Fisher could receive it.
THIS GAME LEMME TELL YA I CALL IT THE 1991 LAPD RODNEY KING VIDEO BECAUSE THERE ARE SO MANY KICKS
Happy Birthday Gumbygirl!

Yeah I gotta be honest watching hurricane coverage is more interesting than this game.
There’s a meteorologist tracking Helene who could be Seth Rogan’s character from The League.
Not for nothing, Daniel Jones has looked pretty decent tonight
He’s playing Dallas.

Was your cut-to-commercial music Gangnam Style? No? Spanish broadcast, dudes.
I should’ve gone to the picture show
Watching this game is punishment
We’re all masochists
Game recap
Why is every kicker except Justin Tucker awesome now?
it isnt cold and windy yet, FOOTBAW WEDDER starts around oct
Mad respect to the Bills for building a new stadium that IS NOT a dome
The Bears gave Cairo Santos 7 million a year for a hard cap of 52 yards.
Forgive me since I’m tardy to the pardy, but is it GumbyGirl’s sun lap-a-versary?
Yes, to celebrate they’re seeing The Curt.
They do a strong 9 minute set.
“Wow, that’s some kinda endurance!”
-R. Pitino
GOD FUCKING DAMN IT
For a close game this is fairly lackluster. How funny is it that the Turkish government bribed Adams to get around fire regulations?
THATS the bribe??
A pallet of Zyn worth $50,000, dude.
Politicians are surprisingly cheap to bribe
Understatement of the millennium
You have to take into account that Eric Adams is one of the dumbest motherfuckers out there.
Wait, the snus things?
I thought “Zin” as in wine?
Now, I’m even more baffled.
These dealys: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Snus
I remember they were huge the first time I visited Sweden, tried em out and didn’t see the appeal. It’s basically chewing tobacco but nicely contained so you aren’t as gross and spitty
I know what snus is… I didn’t know there was a black market that sadly in demand.
ah yeah, totally with you there
Yes
That’s…..just bizarre. Now I’m imagining him personally going around to bars asking people if they want to buy them because they totally fell off the back of a truck, lol
Corrupt cop? NFW.
Ex-cop, my bad.
They’re like Marines. They never stop being pigfucking. cocksuckers.
Downtown LA. Orpheum Theater.
Lovely fucking night for a show.
James who?
Johnny Marr is cool though.
He’s opening tonight. James closes.
Enjoy! Saw Johnny Marr open for The Killers, he was great.
I believe it is pronoUnced Ha-Mez in LA.
I am starting to question some of my life choices. As should Brian Daboll.
Every damn day.
That’s the fuckin “bugaboo” about his whole career, Al
GO FOR IT!
Fifty K in Zyn. Fucking cops.
Not gonna lie, I’m kinda digging snarky “dont give a fuck” Al Michaels tonight
You know there a Spanish-language option, right?
And without
-gimmicky graphics
-credit counseling ads
win win
I just need Mrs. Sharkbait to watch with me so she can tell me what the fuck the commentators are saying.
They’ve been flogging to death the Cee Dee Lamb stuff, but otherwise ye mm nhe
This game is the definition of FLAGKAKKE!
Do I likey Charissa Thompson in a power suit?
Yes, Hippo likey Charissa Thompson in a power suit.
/bare shoulder season had to end sometime
She dresses REALLY well. All her outfits compliment her.
100% agreed. As an older pervert, I truly have started to appreciate fashion sense MOAR.
Starter jacket and Zubaz are still cool right?
Wait, since when are we PRO-clothes?
The game hasn’t gone plaid but McCarthy’s baseball cap certainly has.
mike mccarthy and myself have one thing in common: we are about to enjoy a tub of ice cream in a few minutes
I was supposed to get a birthday cake from Duff Goldman today, but it’s not coming until the1st now. I do have ice cream, so yay?
Any kind of a story behind that, or was it just something you ordered?
My SIL ordered it for me. I’m this old
https://youtu.be/HCTunqv1Xt4?si=hsHQh_GeU8zZbOZ1
Happy birthday!
Happy 8 squared!
Thanks!
Times have changed. I just said aloud “Ooh Bucs Falcons next week, nice.”
My condolences
I had that same reaction. Then got joled by a Carnhartt ad.
Important halftime news: my wife made a hot dish out of sausage instead of ground beef and it was awesome! I could live off of that. Not very long, mind you, but…
Hot dish? Minnesota no?
No. I have Walz to blame.
I haven’t had enough beer to be able to enjoy BEERGHFEST ’24.
Well get on it then!
That’s tomorrow night, when I’ll be home alone.
al michaels is ready to murder a bitch right now
Alternative pro-bowl idea: The refs play football and the players officiate
There are 121 officials, so they could totally field 2 53-person rosters even leaving out a few, and they could play flag
No, tackle. I want to see Hochuli clothesline somebody.
another idea: The Germans rebuild the Atlantic Wall, specifically the portion above Normandy. NFL players man those fortifications, and the refs must storm the beach, with only flags for ammunition
Some good hang time on that first flag
BLEERGHKKAKE
this game is going to end at 2am with all these flags
So many flags for the flag god!
score
DAL – 14
NYG – 9
BLEERGH – 69
Is Eli allowed to watch his old team play or does it get him all revved up and too wired to sleep?
Olivia just cuts his chocolate milk intake by half on game days.
And only regular Oreos, no double stuff.
*CERTAINLY* not after 16:00.
Assuming he hasn’t already negotiated away his chocolate milk rights for the rest of the week by Tuesday, which is fairly common.
D’oh!
Totally forgot I took an edible an hour ago. What triggered me is decilitre eating a fruit salad and was thinking I could go for that.
Guess it worked like a charm.
It’s a surprise from past you!
Better than the vodka beside the bed that drunk me has left hungover me. Happened once and only once.
I can see that being disastrous, what with vodka looking a whole lot like water and all
sun rises in the east
sets in the west
we are born
we die
we pay taxes
cowboys taking too many penalties
My wife had a rough weekend last week, and went to brunch with her friends.
So I can up with this nutty idea:
“Let’s call mom and tell her I was taking the turtle tank to the bathroom, dropped it, and all the water is coming down the steps.”
My son said, “Jesus Christ, what is wrong with you?”
Once my wife was in the bar up the street with a bunch of the other Little League moms and I brought my kids up and sent them with instructions to pretend they were crying and say “Mommy please stop drinking and come home!!”
They did it, too.
Micah is back for Dallas. Good as new
You’d think with the name “Hooker” you’d be good at handling balls…but I guess not.
my mind went right to “packing a musket”

Ha, in your face Scotchy, Singletary only ALMOST fumbled.
Rings of Power is a river of shit.
Absolutely gorgeous, but total crap. What they get for spending $50M or whatever for the contents of J.R.R. Tolkien’s trashcan.
I’ve never seen it, but isn’t it supposed to be based in The Silmarillion?
Damn that hurricane went from Cat 1 to 4 in 12 hours.
Republicans response:
Just so long as it takes out the most GOP parts of Florida.
.
Emmett Smiff pees his pants? GOOD 2 NOE
Guess the taunting flag was the 1st make up flag for NYG
that’s taunting now?
CeeDee Lamb, showing their lots of ways to act like an asshole.
