Saturday Night Off-season Open Thread 2025-29 (Last one!)

FB_IMG_1754320947095

College football starts TONIGHT! Which means that the off-season is over and real football is beginning. In honor of that, tonight I present to you a list of things I like that start with the letter F:

  • Football!
  • Fútbol (still)
  • Fun
  • Family
  • Fannies (the American AND the British!)
  • Fables
  • Fantasy Football
  • Finals (the AFL kind)
  • Flautas (the Mexican food)
  • Flan
  • Flying
  • Fucking (of course)

I could go on. However, I need to move on.

I am definitely taking an extra one or two days around the Labor Day weekend. I’ll work on stuff around the house, watch sports, and make Tiki drinks.

I am now the co-commissioner for the Freezer Vodka league! I will be relegated in the same way that Litre was. Good luck to all the participants, specially the newbies that promoted last year!

Balls somehow lost his bio and didn't realize it. He's now scrambling to write something clever and failing. He likes butts, boobs, most things that start with the letter B, and writing in the Second Person. Geelong, Toluca, Barcelona, and Steelers, in that order.

I can’t remember the last time the Bengals and the Reds have had realistic chances of both making the playoffs.

(checks Reds score)

…and that absence of memory will continue for the foreseeable future.

Have any of you gone to the Albuquerque Hot Air Balloon Fiesta? I’m interested in hitting it but very few details online.

Albuquerque is on the way to Pismo Beach.

Gumbygirl

Gumby was working in Albuquerque years ago while it was going on. I don’t think he went to any of the festival stuff, because he was working, but he saw a lot of balloons in the air. He said it was beautiful.

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

I’ve never been there for the balloon fiesta but have been there a few other times and like the city pretty well.

yeah right

We were traveling on route 66 back in the 60’s and there was a massive hail storm and flooding.

Got so bad we spent the night in Albuquerque. Every fucking road was flooded out and I had some tacos that didn’t cooperate with my route 66 traveling ass.

That’s all I got.

My new projector/hammock arrangement is excellent! I have a choice of hammock chair or full size hammock with good drink/snack holders for each. The projector is further away so larger picture. Still might change the speaker placement but it’s not bad as is

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

Are you still planning on running for city council as a representative of the hammock district? Because you’ve got my vote!

Gatoraids

Fins still playing starters in 2nd drive of last preseason in game to desperate attempt to get Tua injured to invent even better excuses

QB/MLB/Punt Protector Tua Tagovailoa.

Gatoraids

took him 3 drives to score on the jags 2nd stringers, what would we do with out him

Gatoraids

and he picked up the 2 pt conversion, what a statement by McDaniels that will one day be admitted to in court

Who names their kid Mingus. He must have been teased a lot.

The only living thing I’ve encountered with that name was a leg-humping dog who weighed maybe 12 lbs.

He’s drunk. I think he said he was going to see Oasis?

I heard it on Richard Blade’s show yesterday. I was stuck in stooooopid Friday afternoon traffic on the 60, it made me stop bitching for 8 minutes or so!

I’m a sucker for horns.

Wait no…
