Thus far, not a soul has come to Apartment Weaselo, possibly because it’s the 18th floor, so it’ll be a quiet night. Well, after my gig. Which is not a Halloween gig to my knowledge. But it would be awesome if it was.
Now that I’m officially Professor Weaselo, I’d want to go as Professor Poopybutthole. Oooweee. But I don’t have a three-piece tweed suit, and I can’t imagine those would be cheap, and I also can’t imagine those costumes are lying around your local Spirit Halloween. Maybe Rick, Morty, and, I don’t know, Mr. Meeseeks? I don’t know, I don’t go to Spirit Halloween. (If you have to buy a Morty costume I’m judging you, you do what I did and buy a yellow T shirt from Old Navy for like $5 and accessorize.)
Okay, what else is going on?
–ELITE purgatory for the Clots. You knew that Anthony Richardson would be a project, but you threw him in there, got him hurt in like 4 games last year, and then threw him back in there. That is not trusting whatever semblance of process there is. You know what else would help? Communication, like telling the offense about the change.
-Legatron needs more spark, to the IR (left knee). Two kickers have been signed to the practice squad, Riley Patterson and Spencer Shrader.
-Speaking of mocking my teams, Aaron Rodgers to Hot Ones for his new cayenne water! Okay, not yet, because why put Sean Evans to that, but also at the same time watching him vs. Da Bomb seems like the kind of thing that could be amusing to me. Or he taps out after, like, sauce 2 or 3. We’re talking DJ Khaled levels here.
-CrimeBeat! update: Jameson Williams now has a warrant out for his arrest. Y’know, I would hazard that he might need someone to sit him down and tell him to get his shit straightened out. For his sake, for all our sakes.
What’s on tonight?
Drag this back to LA… please? (Freddie Freeman’s terrorism of the other New York team that he hadn’t previously terrorized vs. “Hey, Judge got a hit!”) (World Series Game 5, LAD vs. NYY, Dodgers lead 3-1, 8:00, Fox)
Defeating Liberty, one week at a time vs. The atrocity of Big Red (Kennesaw State vs. Western Kentucky, 7:30, ESPN2)
Iceball
Chess Rivalry! N vs. K (VGK vs. LAK, 10:00, TNT)
NBA Action… even less cares!
Fuck ’em in general vs. Also fuck ’em, but especially Reggie and Tyrese. And especially Reggie! (BOS vs. IND, 7:00, ESPN)
Wemby and pals vs. Vichy Sonics (SAS vs. OKC, 9:30, ESPN)
Women’s Lesser Footy
Friendly: US vs. Argentina (7:00, TNT)
U17 World Cup: Potential Nuclear Kerfuffle Edition! (US vs. North Korea, 7:00, FS1)
Like last night, I’ll be at my gig and we’ll see if there’ll be a primal scream on the bandstand if someone in pinstripes does a good.
We play today, we win today. Das it.
Prof Weaselo! Dude, I’m sure you can get a slammin’ tweed suit for cheap on a thrift store or Salvation Army. Just make sure you boil it twice with holy water, air dry while spraying disinfectant all over it, and then dust the insides liberally with ground-up Cipro before wearing.

EDIT: Naturally, it ends just as I post it. Still, it’s an hour of the trophy presentation and what-have-you.
Boy, I sure hope my traffic app shows the non burned out route to work tomorrow.
lol unless you have a helicopter…

Yep. I was here for that too.
I would absolutely love to listen to some ’90s LA stories from the ilk of yinz.
The ’93 earthquake, rap wars, gang wars. If I ever went for a Ph.D., it’d focus on somewhere on the first Clinton Administration.
Need to get Brick to help me recreate this video:

You gonna play the big nasty redhead like most Fridays?
I would, but she charges extra on the weekends
ball is over in the corner, shocked and dismayed you didn’t immediately think of him if you needed someone.
Sure babe, whatcha need?
Well, apparently we’ve got several candidates for the redhead.
Next I guess we need a time machine.
Congratulations to the no more baseball getting in the way of football season. May dodgers be forever champs
Say what you will about the Yankees: they went pretty far for a very, very, very stupid team.
And I hope those two fucktards from last night are happy about the karmic blowback they brought on. Hope they get hit by a bus while trying to cross the street from whatever bar they drown their sorrows at tonight.
Congratulations to those scrappy upstart underdogs, the Los Angeles Dodgers.
The book “Infinte Jest” posited a piece of entertainment that was so captivating that viewers would immediately lose interest in literally anything else in the world, including any of the basic acts of staying alive (aside from breathing), and would simply watch “The Entertainment” again and again until they died of dehydration or starved to death or met their end in some other fashion.
I believe that the fifth inning of that baseball game may qualify as such for me.
Turner Classic Movies is playing Blue Velvet starting right now. Uncut, the way Satan intended.
Fun fact. The Yankees did not record an out on this play.
Rizzo was thinking about the postgame meatballs his mama is gonna serve.
Nah, that was on Cole. Rizzo’s too far from the bag to make that play himself. Cole stopped running for reasons I’ll never understand.
Possibly because he was distracted by his teammates dropping easy pop flies and spiking easy throws to 3rd into the ground.
Yeah, but I can’t make an Italian joke about Cole.
Really?
If you enjoy Yankee schadenfreude, watch the top of that 5th inning in its entirety.
I DO love me some Yankees schadenfreude
Mrs. Horatio asked if I was OK after that play.
Note that she was not in the same room with me, nor was she watching the game.
That is ultra-fun.
Get that out, this series is going back to LA. Judge makes a catch, Volpe doesn’t play lawn darts.
Awful Coaching would say this is a North Korean baseball team.

Congrats, Dodgers contingent.
Sorry, Horatio. And sorry, Lowratio. Like, really sorry for the weekend that awaits.
And the L.A. fireworks begin!
I was just going to say…
Aren’t those noises from the nine o’clock drive-bys?
They are booming out here.
Hey, New York won the big one.
And the Sparks had a shitty season.
The best part is the Yankees are going to lose Soto this offseason.
Folks here are convincing themselves he’s returning to DC.
I assume not since the Nats don’t deserve nice things. And also don’t pay for nice things.
While I am not sure that Soto will come back to the Yankees, I am sure he is not going to the Nationals.
It seems like Arizona is no longer a toss-up state.
That’s why I’m voting for Hunter Biden!
That guy fucks.
Guess that the Yankees, like the Astros, can’t win the World Series without cheating help from folks in the stands.
They should allow facial hair. Shaving is a losing habit (groin excepted).
