JV Night Time is teh Right Time

Let’s hope that Bama/Noles tilt was nap-friendly, cause BOY HOWDY does the evening slate tilt late af.

Coastal Carolina (+11.5) at Wahoowa (6:00, ACCN)

Fun Moneyline upset pick #2.  Because why not?  Chanticleers is the best nickname in sportsball, and it ain’t even close.

LSU (+4.5) at Clemson (7:30, ABC)

The Humbling of Brian Kelly, episode 4,582.  Or he finally breaks through and does something.  Other than kill a student manager, that is.

California (+1.5) at Oregon State (10:30, ESPN)

Jaysus, we better hope the Death Valley Showdown stays close.  Niiiiiiiiiiiiiiicccccccccccccce Beaver to rise above the Golden Shower Bears.  Ah feel so dirty…

Team Secular Big Love (-5.5) at Westwood Klavern (11:00, Fox)

Not a typo, national Fox game kicking off at 11 EST.  Will the vast coaching disparity matter MOAR in a Week 1 context?  Vegas sure thinks so.

Colorado State (+21.5) at Washington (11:00, BTN)

Classic Late Night with the Big Ten Network matchup.  Who knows, some years JV RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRAM IT!! can be frisky.

I am at a high school reunion where I didn’t attend but people SWEAR we used to get high out back.

Beerguyrob

I am rolling with it because it keeps the drink tickets coming.

Horatio Cornblower

Are you sure you didn’t go there?

Gumbygirl

We got high in the bathroom when I was in high school. The 70’s were a strange and wonderful land.

Horatio Cornblower

Just found out The Cowboy Junkies are touring twice in CT next month and I am unreasonably excited about this.

college football: destroy the pac-12? BAMA IS DEAD. super-conferences? I WILL PUT A MANNING IN TEXAS AND MAKE ALL THE HANK HILLS CRY. trump with an executive order for nil? I WILL PROVE TO DABO THAT GOD IS DEAD

It’s made me reach for a fourth beer, which is a rare occurrence these days.

Switched over to the UCLA-Utah game and the UU on the Utes helmets reminds me of my father’s opinion on the Unitarian Universalist Church, to which a couple of our former neighbors belonged: “The UUs are the kind of people who would burn a question mark onto your lawn.”

Doktor Zymm

They seem like a nice enough bunch

ArmedandHammered

Nope, the arson would be too violent an act and they would be damaging the environment! UU is where people who cannot fit into other religions gather together, it is like the island of misfit toys, except for religion.

What a fucking terrible play with the game on the line.

‘Will they do it 3 times in a row?”

Kirk, my brother in Christ, if the other team proves itself unwilling, unable, or both, to stop a play I assure you the other team will run that play 7,000 times in a row.

fleshwound_NPG

the lsu touchdown had 4 wideouts all bunched up together, and they threw to the 1 on 1 matchup on the other side

next redzone possession will see on one side 4 WR and a Ford F-150 lined up to one side, and guess what, the other side will have the 6’6″ guy lined up 1 on 1

guess where the ball goes

Mr. Ayo

The Ford F-450 that leaked out of the backfield of course.

Horatio Cornblower

I can root for a meteor.

Horatio Cornblower

I root for ND now that they have a colored fella as the head coach, because I suspect it’s killing 2/3 of the fan base.

Finally getting around to reading The Only Plane in The Sky: An Oral History of 9/11 by Garrett Graff

Checked it out from the Library 📚

Horatio Cornblower

I know how it ends.

WCS

Well, don’t spoil it.

Mr. Ayo

Well he can’t here, since it’s Oral.

Horatio Cornblower

Boy, wait until I tell you how “Habsburgs On The Rio Grande” ends.

Horatio Cornblower

“Running Into A Crowded Box” is also what I said when I ran into my ex at an Echo Jane concert back in the late 80’s.

(this is a lot funnier when you know Echo Jane was the lesbian band in CT back then. I was there for main act, which for the life of me I can’t remember, but I think it had something to do with the sister of the lead singer for Belly)

(Jokes are funny when they rely on 35+-year-old references that have to be explained)

Uh oh. LSU QB may have a leg owie from a late hit.

if that hit was any later it would’ve come with a doritos locos tacos and a baja blast at 1am

If it makes Brian Kelly experience negativity, I’m in favor of it.

not even at NFL Week 1 and we already at “what is a catch”

Not even that. We’re at the level of “that was a catch but fuck them gumbos”

Found a funny:

Standing outside the supermarket asking people if they want to trade groceries

I got a first place (defended last year’s win) for my harvest spice loaf at the big agricultural fair this weekend. Third place for my cornbread. Didn’t place for my challah bread. It was a shit braid and I knew it.
The animals were in top form and I got my Nova Scotia style donair at the best of the Greek food trucks. Somehow there were 5 of them. I’ve met maybe one Greek person in my entire life here.
It was 33 degrees (91 for the U.S. of Trump) and busy. Got some yuzu sake for litre. Not even a single shooting spree. Good fair day.

yeah right

Congrats on the motherfucking bread!

I am down for the yuzu sake my brother!

Padres are stomping the Twins 12-3!!! ⚾️

Looks like they’re heading to the Playoffs this year!!!! 💯

That’s ROCKINGGGG!!!!

yeah right

Random day in the life. Had a few beers and ordered some tacos. Forty minutes later get a picture that says “Flawless delivery!”

To my same address number one city block away.

Sent help to their Ai bullshit messenger saying, “That’s not my house, dude.”

They redelivered and I got some very tasty tacos.

Few minutes ago I get a call and they said “Is this yeah right? I have two bags of food with your name and phone number on them. What should I do?”

“Have some free porch tacos. They’re yours. And thanks for calling, that’s actually pretty cool.”

“No problem. Let me get these tacos somewhere.”

How safe are porch tacos?

Doktor Zymm

Hope they weren’t sitting out there too long!

yeah right

It was 2 hours between misdelivery and phone call.

81 Fahrenheit. Light wind from the west maybe 4 mph.

In San Pedro.

Doktor Zymm

Very borderline, usda says 2 hours unrefrigerated between 40f and 90f. Down to 1 hour 90-140

/me, looking at the expiration date on the guacamole I just finished off.

Hoo boy, Zymm’s not gonna like this!

Expiration dates aren’t real, although botulism is

You’ll be fine, wash them down with a couple of cold cervezas.

Two things i am horrible at: teaching people and taking care of sick people. I’m about to poison my wife right now, she has a head cold and you would have thought she lost both her legs.

I don’t have the patience to teach, I get frustrated and wind up saying, ‘WHAT THE FUCK DON’T YOU UNDERSTAND?

One of the parents on our team was chirping at a player nonstop today. Even better, she’s a white Karen, long blonde ponytail and the kid was black. God I fucking hate people. I was hoping to run her over in the parking lot, but didn’t see her.

Doktor Zymm

I’m a chick, I can hit her for you without breaking any social norms

jjfozz

After the game, I walked over to my car because I was so goddamn angry and didn’t want the other parents to notice. It’s so pointless and outright fucking mean.

fleshwound_NPG

shame the trump rumors turned out not to be true, croaking on the same weekend as texas and bama losing and starting 0-1 was too much to ask

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

Eh, he’s definitely dying, but it’s probably going to take a lot longer than any of us would like.

fleshwound_NPG

kissinger went to 100, so ill believe it when i see it

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

Like I said, a lot longer than many of us would like.

Actually, I said “any”. But I meant “many”.

Trump’s not making 100. Unfortunately he’ll probably see 83.

Remember, this is an FSU team that couldn’t get into the national playoff despite going undefeated in a Power-5 conference, in order to make room for Alabama and/or Texas. And yet somehow this loss will be counted as a “quality” loss for Roll Damn Tide.

Horatio Cornblower

I’m absolutely not going to remember that.
