Welcome to Murrika’s favoUrite holiday, where we celebrate Native American slaughter by eating more than a third world family does in a year, getting blackout drunk, and falling asleep watching good old American FITBAW! Scotchy continues to be annoyed by non-sportsball matters, so I am stepping in. Don’t worry, I am tired of reading my gibberish too.
Bearistocrats! (+9.5) at LioUns (12:30, CBS)
I recall Erik Kramer winning the Madden turkey leg in this one, but can’t recall which of these two teams he was quartered backing at the time. Memory is like that, sometimes. Chi**** is in its most familiar modus operandi (ie, freefall), while Detroit is fucking teams up like 1970s era Nebraska. Does everyone start fringe fantasy players in these games, then instantly regret it? OK, just me. Yet again.
Sommet tells me that Caleb will relish this spotlight, and his charges will make things interesting. I’d even say a cover is more likely than not. Especially if I’m only risking YOUR moneys.
Nothing makes one feel more festive than putting “slutty Chi**** Bears fans” into one’s Google window. At least it’s not my work computer this time.
Turkey trot hurdle!
(Ric Flair-like chop to the back of the knee)
“Nothing illegal here.”
Caleb Williams is lucky his NFL career didn’t end right then and there.
Huh, none of us were expecting that.
Went back upstairs because laptop needed charging. Now too lazy to turn on the other teevee.
Just joining at halftime, had a post brunch nap. That scruff on Romo looks horrible, like it has grown during the broadcast.
he’s trying out the “rough trade” look, and Troy is giving him a Mean Girls stare
Glancing at my television while Romo was talking and hearing español come out put a big smile on my face this Thanksgiving.
Shaboozey to all the other gritty, scrappy, gym rat country musicians:

Follow me for more bold predictions.
I had no idea what a Shaboozey was till now, and I am poorer for the knowing.
I actually thought he was decent enough. Certainly got more out of the crowd than Fat Joe at Game 2 of the World Series.
Fat Joe in Game 2 managed to get more out of the crowd than Fat Joe in Game 3.
Right, right, Game 3. All those Dodgers wins just blend together in my memory.
I don’t like modern country music, at all. Waylon Jennings would have kicked Shaboozy’s ass and then gotten drunk with him, during the show!
I put that on mute and listened to Patton Oswalt
Failure pile in a sadness bowl!

Salomon, for all your tai chi needs!
Rush 1. So 10 in coverage would be the…

Hamilton?
Jefferson is on the $2.
NM, I see where you’re coming from.
You imply the common man knows about the $2.
They’re considered bad luck.
Twoonie?
Loonie!
Watching my mom’s dogs fight over a bone is more entertaining than this game:
The futility of man’s struggle against his own nature, as performed by the Bearistocrats!
Sudden but probably meaningless change!
it amped up the amusement factoUr anyway

“Why on earth would anyone develop such a technology?” – the Dr. Mrs. Deadly, firing up the trusty Dyson
It’s why I can’t post from PostImage anymore so I use imgbb.com instead.
Let the clock run, they probably take the FG. Instead, here comes the tuddy
I wonder if it would work to change the rule so that if the ball actually makes contact with the defender, there cannot be pass interference. So basically you can do whatever you want to the receiver as long as you actually touch the ball.
I foresee a lot of ded receivers
I saw a guy get hit in the back this last weekend going up for a medicine ball, made me think of the good old days when life was cheap and the DB would have speared him in the small of the back at a full run.

Committing two penalties on the same 3rd down play that would have resulted in a first down and giving up a first down on 2nd and 25 are pretty funny, but I expect more out of The Bearistocrats!
It’s only the first half, I’m sure there’s more in store
YARP
That fourth down offsides penalty was rather droll, it looks like they’re stepping it up.
Ah, I see now.
…said the blind man as he picked up his hammer and saw.
This is exactly why you don’t want to have any fantasy players from the Bears, no matter how talented they are
Fucking DJ Moore.
How is this game only 13-0?
Guys, I don’t think that the Bears are very good.
The bears have more punts than pass completions
“They both start with P so close enough, meh”

So just discovered my soundbar has a ‘sports’ setting. It actually sounds pretty good!
Let’s us know if it automatically mutes chris collinsworth
Morbid predictions aside, we made it to another thanksgiving yall!
Two meetings down, both could have been emails. Approaching Fozz level rage.
Go into that next meeting and make them grateful to end it early!
Gentlemen, I hope your Thanksgiving is going well.
I just want to make a prediction before it gets too much later in the day, I want tonmake a prediction for my money league:
After 12 weeks, I am sitting at 7-5, with an 86% chance of making the playoffs.
If I win one more game I can clinch a playoff spot. I am projected to win this week. It’s a 12 team league, and there are 6 teams in the post season.
I just wanted to let you know, here and now, that I fully believe i will miss the playoffs.
It is now 12:23 pm central time on Thursday, November 28th 2024.
You heard it here first folks!
Anyone else read that with a drunk slur beginning at the second paragraph?
That’s exactly where my team is. I even win my division if I win last two games (we are all tied at 7-5).
But NINE teams are 6-6 (or better) at present, so I am pretty sure how this movie ends.
Two games left in a 12 game league is 4096 possible outcomes.
I took the standings to all those and applied tie breakers, and I make the playoffs in 3/4of those.
I have no faith in my team
Is Fozz just like strangling three people at once by now?
Also the Bears strategy for picking a GM and/or head coach

URBAN MEYER!
if you ate turkey early, there is good news: when your turkey nap hits, this game will likely start entering blowout territory
Foreshadowing my Game 2 post!
Erik Kramer was too good for the Bears.
Man, what a damning statement.
1995…the ONE year the bears had a quarterback, was the one year they did NOT have a defense
and lost the last wild card spot to a team with jeff george
See also; the Mel Tucker era.
That first Trestman season had a surprisingly cromulent offense.
Erik Kramer gave me this Wolven Sort moment (I was on the grass bank behind the end zone in which the Hail Mary was completed).
Peebles (the receiver) had run track with my cousins, and was just starting to emerge with #ThePauls when he suffered a terrifying neck/spine injury. Fortunately, he recovered – but they told him he could never play again (one more hit and he’d be paralyzed).

Great job by the editors throwing the final score up right as the pass gets to the receiver, thereby blocking the viewer from seeing the catch.
Right? That’s really the only footage, too. Game wasn’t on teevee (as I recall).
16 yard punt seems pretty important.
I had totes forgotten the punt shank element in setting us up. We caught soooooo many breaks that day.
Lovie Smith challenge. Nice Thanksgiving callback homage.
bearnuts, lol
man, you do NOT wanna Google THAT
I’ll take your word for that Mr. “googled slutty Chi**** Bears fans”
Whatever you do, don’t shorten that to “slutty Bears”
“Slutty Bears” and it’s just a picture of me.
Grandson Bronco is befuddled by the steam-hissing InstaPot. Don’t worry, little man. I ain’t know how it works, neither. But PV = nRT
I hope both teams run it for 800 yards and 7 TDs.
/Because I have Montgomery and Swift… but Williams is on my bench
COME ON FAT MAN, THROW IT
So the Lions have lost their last 7 Thanksgiving day games? Bears upset time? I’ll go out on a limb here and say yeah why not.
have to love CBS pointing out that DET leads the NFL in Thanksgiving appearances. Who ever could have guessed??
saxomophone anthem!
It’s that magical time of morning where you pour your fresh coffee grounds into your coffee cup with half/half instead of into your french press with hot water.
What Shell station fuels you that has a french press that, I assume, hasn’t been busted against some guys jaw for taking the winning scratcher?
Must be fucking ooh-la-la at Thanksgiving with your neighbors.
Need me some sun god to avoid relegation!
