It’s week 7 already and no, I won’t be talking about Payton going back to Who Dat? Land or whatever they call it-you’ll hear far too much of that.
Why yes, I did pick up Bub Means in Math Hard! because I love playing three-dimensional chess (snorts) and I don’t want anyone else to have this potential league winner. WCS is going to have to tell us about him because I believe he has a passing knowledge about the Pitt football program.
Minutiae:
-Harrison Butker has a PAC-with the Devil. Funny how all these dumb Christians/Repuplicans all glom onto each other for the grifting opportunities. Word has it they they’ll be raising money to spread ‘traditional values’ and to purchase firewood for the witches they find. They’ll also be building speculum-busting mechas and funding Stepford Wives sewing circle conventions. Don’t forget to wear your 50’s-style honeybee print housedress! Fuckheads.
-Of course the latest KHunt that heads the Chiefs is good with this. After all, his family threw 300k against a ballot measure that would overturn a near total ban on abortion in Missouri.
-After years of doing so, the Browns have decided against putting lipstick on a pig-brass turned down a plan to renovate their existing stadium and want to push forward with a new domed stadium.
To The Game!
-There’s a reason why Bub Means is a thing. First off, he was a second teamer like his guy Rattler and they may have a modicum of chemistry. Also, Olave is out tonight and Shaheed is done for the year after surgery so the pickings are mighty slim at wr right now.
-You Look Familiar-not one to go into battle without some buddies, it should be noted that Payton has (including the practice squad) nine ex-Saints on his roster.
-Another ex of his will have the light shining on him this evening as Drew Brees will be inducted into the Saints Hall of Fame.
-Bo Nix is sorta getting there?: He’s got the arm talent but is only averaging 5.5 yards per throw and his legs have gotten him into the endzone three times so far. Sutton is his favorite receiver but lordy, he has a dreadful 44.7% catch rate, the very lowest among dudes with 15+ grabs.
Go get ’em!
Finishing up the second of the Horatio Hornblower novels. Really looking forward to whichever book a dwarf shows up in.
I never read them, but watched the mini (heh) series. I wanted to watch it again recently but ironically it’s annoyingly hard to pirate
So far I’d say I prefer the Aubrey/Maturin novels, which feel a little more complex. These are more straight-ahead adventure yarns, which are still enjoyable. I still don’t really know all the nautical terms, though….
Good nightyou good people, i’m gonna bury my dad tomrrow, if i could unleash a 42 gun salute i would, what a guy.
Well, Sexy Friday is tomorrow, always good for a 42 gun salute.
(But seriously, sorry.)
Hang in there. Much love and support to you and yinz.
You’ll get through it man. Cry. Hug the family. Then shoot the shit with us as a distraction.
I appreciate and wholly endorse the Kraken releasing just all over the Flyera.
KRAKEN! That was such a fun experience.
My photo skills compared to those in this crowd are pretty sad. Comet Tsuchinshan–ATLAS, taken with my almost 20-year-old Rebel, with the shutter open for 20 seconds. I wouldn’t be surprised if I couldn’t have done it a lot better with a few more minutes messing with the settings. I didn’t even know one was visible until a couple of days ago.
Somewhere in the Kingdom of Cakalacky…
Haener better than Rattler? Yes. The answer is yes.
Havent seen a group so embarrassed without a working Carr since the last Tesla demo
BANNER!
I’m playing BC Dick. He’s got 23 points from Denver’s defense. Ugh.
A lot of people have played with BCs dick.
It’s my first time. He is NOT being gentle!
I haven’t walked the same since.
I’ve been having that dream where you have a final and you didn’t study and didn’t even know what the text book looks like, etc. etc. with increasing frequency the last few months. I feel more self-conscious now about missing out or just refusing to try on so many things in my life and now it’s like “You still have to live your life and not just hide from everything and everyone” but IDK. I will still take the test. That’s the punchline. I still go through the motions but I have no idea what is going on. At least that’s consistent because I can’t read anything in dreams (I’ve had tons of dreams where I try like Hell.).
My variant is that I don’t remember where the classes are, and I don’t have the printout (80’s, remember) anymore.
I was looking forward to watching this game. Just got home now, so missed most of it. And, based on what I have seen in the last 2 minutes, I really didn’t miss anything.
You did miss a Saint getting martyred on live tv.
That was a nice interception. Otherwise, no, this is TNF Classic.
Thanks for the square root of fuck all in Lowratio League, Cortland Sutton.
Paging Alvin Kamara to the house phone
Maybe answering a phone counts as a catch
Mrs Sharkbait feels your pain. She started him tonight too
MY DAD PASSING AWAY, I CALL IT INDIANA JONES AND THE TEMPLE OF DOOM CAUSE IT FEELS LIKE MY HEART GOT RIPPED OUT
You have friends and family to mourn with. Please appreciate that.
God yes I do. And you make an excellent point. Death makes a person reflect on life, and I’m hoping I can right some of my dumber fucking faults.

What exactly have the Hashtag Pauls accomplished to warrant a new stadium, funded with tax-payer monies? Haslam should be forced to give hazard pay to Hashtag Pauls season ticketholders, and I’ll stand by that until they make a Superb Owl.
Haslam is willing to part with a little bit of money – about as much as he’ll earn in interest off his team in a day or two – and politicians are incredibly cheap whores
Drinking vodka in honor of the old man tonight. Goddamn, he was such a fucking great dude. I apologize for all the schmaltz, guys and gals.
Vodka sounds like a good idea.
You have nothing to apologize for. I miss my dad too.
I’m going to experience that same feeling someday (hopefully not too soon); I’m certainly not going to look down on anyone for expressing it here.
Donks D is good? Saints O sucks?
TNF Español hosts just called Groper Cleveland an “authentic disaster”
“Genuine disaster.” Sorry. I was translating literally.
Groper Cleveland is especially good since he’s been the starter in non-consecutive terms and hopefully hasn’t gotten consecutive life sentences yet either.
“All of the nurses would wait for your father to walk out of the surgery room and take his shirt off as he walked towards the locker room. We would say, ‘Here he comes. Dr. John has his shirt off.'”
That made me proud, and kind of icky at the same time.
Dad Fozz was rocking

making an interception?, HONEY BADGER DONT CARE
Honey Badger ain’t catch!
Whelp the viewing is over, four hours of making small talk until i thought my head would explode. Burying the old man tomorrow, giving the eulogy. How many shots of tequila is too much before a funeral/
One fewer than you want.
No such thing
So, comparatively speaking, Sean payton on the broncos has to be one of the worst “second or third” coaching tenure after a supposedly good coach left a “good team” right?
Like there’s mike shanahan with the slurs
Seifert with the panthers
Rivera with the slurs
Ditka with the saints.
And joe Gibbs with the slurs
Who else?
Not football, but Billy Martin rings a bell
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KV-GJ9iNX8g
Seifert and Ditka are almost a class of their own. Stealing a living, as the Brits say.
Craig T Nelson after Coach
Pederson with the Jags.
He’s so lucky he followed that classless college guy. He’s basically just a forgettable relief for now.
Mike Babcock, anything after 2008.
Advanced Statistics tell us Andy Reid was statistically More Impactful with the Eagles….
Also — was Jeff Fischer ever good? Because I remember that guy somehow stuck around so long that I always assumed he had come up with the fake punt or something.
A lot of Raiders fans will go to their
prison cellsI mean graves insisting that it was a mistake to fire Hue Jackson after the single season he went 8-8 with us.So, I didn’t win THE lottery, but I did win A lottery
Thanks for the reminder, my state liquor control board has a Pappy Van Winkle and Sazerac lottery going right now. Almost forgot to enter.
If Oregon is any indication, the best way to win the lottery is to be on the board.
Just go to a free state.
That’s not Hamilton!
I love this song. I also love Tonya Donnelly.

I am not clicking on that. Last time I listened to Belly, I had Feed the Tree stuck in my head for days!

This is a very poor FITBAW match, and unworthy of delaying OpiumDreemz much longer.
But there is a very good ice football match in Detroit right now!
Boycotting the Donks Woo fixture to RELEASE THE KRAKEN!!!
Bastard Man gon Bastard Man
Wait..the JUGS machine? LOL
should really rename that thang Mike McCarthy’s Milkshake
PANUELO!!
Game over? Eh, close enough
knew I shoulda made that bet with Mister Pickle!
Who has two thumbs and will be semi-coherently providing a boots on the ground for Commies V Black Panthers at the stadium formerly known as Little Danny Snyder’s House of Horrors?
This guy.
Looking forward to it! Have all the fun and none of the dysentery!
Dont drink the water
And stay out of the “rain”.
If it’s brown, drink it down. If it’s black, send it back.
Your gonna tear your acl.
let’s just say the espanol Peleton ad…is laser-focUsed on the Balls de Steel y Fury market
Goddammit.
It’s a lie that the internet saves everything, because I can’t find the bizarre commercial for vagina perfume from the early 2000s that had a personal trainer stealing the seat off his female client’s stationary bike so he could smell it.
HOLY FUCKING SHIT
The internet deleted that video from itself, out of self preservation.
Or shame.
Have you SEEN the internet?
I hear I can find horny singles in my area on it.
I’ve also just won an iPad
Ewwww. Who thought that was a good idea?
At least 1 guy
Ask and ye shall receive.

I love this place so fucking much. I knew someone would find it.
Evidently, it’s still a thing.

Oh! It’s Japanese. That explains everything.
Oh no.
Reporting for duty for this trashish Hippo.
It won’t disappoint, since you is looking FOAR TRASH FITBAW
For the life of me, I wish I could remember why Georgia State = “Sex Panthers” in HippoSpeak
I assume it’s nawt because Georgia is the Peach state and you were under the impression that peaches are a metaphor for vaginas in that Presidents of the United States song “Peaches” because that song is about the actual delicious stone fruit.
I won’t lie…it always made me feel kinda creeped out when I sang it to my oldest kid while trying to get her to eat peach baby food. Just the refrain, but STILL
The DraftKings espanol advertisimo has David Ortiz. FYI
I apologize, I am still buzzing about Judge inside-outing that and Playoff Stanton running at full speed around the bases with a sundial (but it’s not his fault).

Carr can never play on a team without a large collection of all black merch
TRADE HIM TO MIAMI!
if this Super Dome is a rockin, head for higher ground, there’s a Hurricane
Superdome, Beyond Thunderdome
I have been to two games there. It’s a fun place, the crowd is really into it.
I know I will regret turning the sound on. But fuck me, I have no attention span.
SAP hermano
I might turn this off early. Am worried about the side effects of prolonged exposure to Bo Nix could cause.
oh man, you NEVAR wanna go Full Ken!
Baby.
If I survived Neil O’Donnell, Paul Justin, Akili Smith, Scott Mitchell, Gus Frerotte, Jon Kitna, Carson Palmer, Andy Dalton, Ryan Finley, Jeff Driskel, Brandon Allen, a one-legged Joe Burrow, and a pre-bearded Ryan Fitzpatrick, you can survive Bo Nix.
But is surviving the same as Living?
The dead can’t feel pain, though.
Oh, fuck. Are we still doing this?
Need a Hippo ruling on TNF’s MANDATORY status!
Nope. Just highly encouraged.
TO THE ENCOURAGTORIUM!!!
Horrible Thursday Night games in general or this one in specific? Either way, it’s not like most of us have anything better to do on a Thursday
That’s the problem
Enjoy it while you can
God Fucking Damn It!
He is still just a rattler in a cage
Despite all his rage.
Evening Folks
Holy shit, y’all. Frank Beamer is STILL ALIVE!
Turns out Brian Kelly is NOT a fan of One Direction
Nor having to take valuable game prep time away, in order to attend a student manager’s funeral
When you watch tonight’s game, have one thought continuously rolling in your mind:
Amazon paid $58,823,529 for the rights to broadcast this game.
Oh, and forty-one cents.
Bad enough for me to put BC/VPI on other screen
But it did give a friend of mine a job, he is in charge of all sound. And chooses the bumper music.
“Free firewood? That’s nice and all but I do live in a volcano. I guess I could teach the fire pirhanas to fetch. Would you like to meet the fire pirhanas?”
Not tonight, I have a haddock.
6-3 or 9-6 is on its way
I’m hoping for a 7*-5 final score.
*2 safeties and a field goal
I went to bed at sundown, but there was apparently a 14-5 in JV last night. #KnowHope
9-6.
TD w/ Extra Points.
TD but on 2-point attempt, the QB is sacked in his own end zone for a safety.
Don’t look at me like that! It’s TNF; weird shit happens on Thursday.
I want to say the old 500s/Jaguras Peak TNF memes go all the way back to KSK days.
Finished the trial today. I did use ‘Ancient Aliens’ in my closing, and judging from where the jury appears to be heading, (they returned what would be a very favorable verdict for my client, but they fucked up the form so we have to go back tomorrow AM and have them reconsider and fix it), it worked.
The moral of the story is being an idiot works.
How hard is it to check one box? We’re they going for a Buddhist both guilty and not guilty verdict?
It’s the sound of one juror clapping.
Did they forget the cover sheet on the TPS report?
“The Jury was instructed thrice, verbally and written, that driving an overweight tractor trailer is NOT a Capital Offense. The verdict of ‘Hang ‘em at dawn’ is invalid.’”
If the jury wants to hang my laundry at dawn they are welcome to
