Your Thirsty Thursday Open Thread

I haven’t had a beer in 1.25 dog years. (when you go to two decimal points people think you’re good at math. Suckers.) This despite cold weather shutting down a few trucks, more Energy Vampire interaction, Syracuse doing their best mid-minor program imitation, not being able to get a specialist appointment and a political environment whereby Conservative Doug Fucking Ford seems to be the rational guy moving forward!

All that to say I’m drinking a beer-just one!-tomorrow night.

Minutiae:

-There’s a GM out there that is desperate to save his job and he’s looking to draft a QB that will save his ass. In case you weren’t aware the guy is Giants GM Joe Shoen and all the talk is about Shadeur Sanders. But what do we see on the horizon? Jalen Milroe is figuratively knocking it out of the park at Senior Bowl practices and is shooting up imaginary draft boards.

-You can poke fun at me for this footbally thing being a waste of time but one of the alternatives is watching the news and seeing Trump flailing from position to position and good people (and a great number of bad people) reacting accordingly. The Canadian media is acting the part of Chicken Little, what with threat of tariffs on the way. Yes, our huge resource economy is going to suffer but it’s not like we no leverage whatsoever. As Doug Ford mentioned, we’re the biggest drinkers ever and he’s going to pull all American-made products off the shelves. CANADA! CANADA! CANADA!

-Someone disobeyed the Tuck Rule and failed to keep it in his pants. I believe it was a Ravens kicker.

-Good news for volcano lair owners! Sir Kliff of Kingsbury is returning as OC of the Commies. It would appear that he’s dying to get another chance at a head coach job but all the hiring guys have functional memories. Still, there’s no denying that he’s done an incredible job in Washington.

-Mike McCarthy is now waiting for the ’26 coaching cycle because the Saints aren’t interested and Jerrah fucked him over nice and good by talking him up after the season and then letting him go. JJ played the Dallas media and they should be embarrassed but they’ll fall for it all over again next time around when Damocles’ sword gets dangled over B-Shott.

-Anyone remember Spy Magazine’s “Logrolling in our Time” feature? Let me back up-anyone remember Spy Magazine? Anyway, the feature was about authors trading generous compliments to each other in a ‘scratching each other’s back’ kinda way on the backflaps of their latest books. I bring this up because ESPN is regurgitating the NFL’s latest concussion stats (It’s so totally wonderful, you can’t believe it!) as though it were fact.

Do your thing.
