JV NFL for 23 Nov 2004 (Early)

FYI, Bournemouth/Brighton (10:00, USA) and City/Spurs (12:30, NBC) are reasonable enough watches.

Indiana (+13.5) at tOhio State (Noon, Fox)

Hoosiers finally get their big test.  Maybe too big?  Let’s hope they come good (PHRASING), anyway.

Ole Miss (-10) at Florida Men (Noon, ABC)

Gators will be feeling their oats coming off last week’s humbling of LSU.  Johnny Reb is another level up, though.  Maybe also an emotional hangover?

SMU (-10) at Virginia (Noon, ESPN2)

Death by SMU-SMU danced with disaster last week (home to BC), and need to fix their shit in order to avoid this banana skin.

Paedo State (-11.5) at Minnesota (3:30, CBS)

It would be so very awesome for these Paedo jackasses to lose, and the Gophers likely have enough defensively to at least annoy them.

Original Recipe Big Love (+3) at Arizona State (3:30, ESPN)

Winner gets the inside lane to the “surprise package” Big Twaaaaalve championship game.  But the chaotic ride will never, ever make sense.

Colorado (-3) at Kansas (3:30, Fox)

Speaking of chaos, this is the last real regular season obstacle for the Fightin’ Deions.  Rock Chalk is better than their record shows, and they seem to embrace the “giant killer” role.  Already priced into the line, though.

Huzzah! Our Gold Coast manservant does it again! Double his wages immediately (from two pence to four pence)!

Rooting for Arsenal against Nottingham Forest feels like rooting for the sheriff over Robin Hood, but I’m still gonna do it.

What a pass for Brighton.

And I fucking hate Brighton.

Kill the Bees Hippo. Kill them!!!!

Sitting in the car in Richmond watching eldest’s soccer team get fucking dismantled. These kids just went undefeated in their regular season, the first team EVER from this soccer club (Shenandoah County) to do it. So this jerkoff coach decided it’d be a great idea to get fucking humiliated down here, end the season on a horrible note, and make all the families travel and pay for hotel accommodations the weekend before thanksgiving to do it.
I am a grumpy fuck. I might have pneumonia right now, and the inside of my skull is collapsing like wet sand leaving only lightning bolts of rage and suicidal ideation pinging and echoing like fruit bats off dark, wet bone.
Another stupid situation in America.

So this was a non conference thing, just a “friendly”?

What a buzz kill. Poor kids.

Hopefully there is at least pizza at the end of the day

I fucking hate waking up early, already been up 2 hours. Now I will feel even more guilt when I get nothing accomplished while even having extra time.

These are not productive morning hours.

Meh, relaxing and resting is good for you. We all need time to heal and recharge

I’m the opposite. I get most of my tasks done before lunch, then tend to sluff off in the late afternoon and evening. I blame my morning paper route as a kid. Since I was about 13 I’ve been getting up at 4 AM. When I first retired I tried running in the afternoon but never was comfortable with it. Since I start work at 8 getting the run in cleaning up and the drive in is my early morning routine. I’m now hard wired for that. But I do plan on slipping that to about 6 when I retire in 18 months. I am looking forward to that.

Game Time Decision

Up early on a Saturday to get the winter tyres out on the car, so sitting in a waiting room with the other up too early peeps. And my timing was off this morning, so didn’t get a coffee before I left, so, as the kids say, raw dogging it.

Also, no love for the Canadian [edit: men’s university ] football championship game? Have no idea if there’s a line for it, or even where to look?

I feel like your niece may have been, uh, putting one over on you when you spotted her car pulling out of the parking lot of a Tim Hortons that had closed for the night almost a full hour previously.
