It’s Heeeere. Your First Thursday Night Football Thread of of the 2025-26 Season

For Jerry Jones so loved his Ego that he gave up all his common sense so that Dallas haters could laugh all the season long. 

Oh look, here’s Jerry talking to the media yet again.

I think we’ll get a true picture of just how dysfunctional Dallas is and how all this crap has really affected the players. The Hot-Takers are saying that them Cowboys are going 4-13 but I don’t think it’ll be that bad, what with the firepower they have in the passing game. And this is a passing league I’ve been told.

Look at me, getting ahead of myself. First and foremost, many thanks are owed to all the gerbils that kept the lights on during the offseason and second-most, welcome back those football fans that like our brand of cynicism and snarkiness. Let’s all do it again.

To The Game!

Cowboys/Eagles:

-No pressure Kenny Clark, all you have to do is single-handedly improve the running game, just like your new master said you would. Just wondering, how many snaps is he going to play, what with all of 5(?) practices under his belly? He himself said he’s been cramming, reading the play calls to get a handle on things. Does he play 60% of snaps? Does that sound about right?

-Oh yeah, that Philly running game-according to some cherry-picked metrics, was the best or 2nd best of all the teams. When last we saw Saquon he was ripping off 40 yarders and there’s no reason why he can’t again tonight. The question of whether he can stay healthy for two seasons in a row for the first time in his career is a question for another day.

-Speaking of, Quick! name the Cowboys backfield. Nope. Rico Dowdle is gone, replaced by the less than explosive Javonte Williams in the lead with Panthers castoff (how’d you like that on your football CV?) Miles Sanders. Some are talking up Jaydon Blue but that’s obligatory with rookies that have detritus in front of them in the pecking order.

-I’m a bit curious how the Cowpokes are going to defend A.J. and Devonta: cb Diggs is playing after rehabbing his knee all offseason and that’s a bit of a surprise. Taking on Brown might be too much of an ask, so does nickel guy DaRon Bland-outweighed by a good 30 pounds-take on the responsibility? Or should he stay with the smaller Devonta who has 6 TD’s in eight games vs Dallas? Pick yer poison.

-The last spread I saw was a Fellini-esque 8 1/2 which seems…generous…to the Cowboys. I think the wheels come off right out of the gate.

Enjoy the game folks and those that have been away, do say hello, won’t you?

Hey, how dare they compare us to the Cowboys?! Mike Brown may be cheap but he’s not vindictive enough to set his franchise back five years! He’s stupid enough to do it but not vindictive.

Me: Although it is Opening Night for the NFL, and the Cowboys are playing the hated Eagles, AND the Yankees are playing the Cheating Asterisks, I have a 10:00 AM deposition, so I won’t drink.

/Ball hits Ben Rice right in the glove for an easy out at first, Rice immediately drops ball as though it were made plutonium

I would love to see that eagle taking a shit and it landing on Jerry.

fleshwound_NPG

“wow, didn’t have to pay any hooker to do that this time! YEEEEEE HAAAAWWWWWW!!!!”

Horatio Cornblower

If that shit is made of metal, and is actually a steel-jacketed hollow-point bullet, and that eagle is actually a semi-automatic rifle, then yes, yes, I agree with you.

Love Always Sunny, love the whole Wrexham thing, suspect I’ll love Mythic Quest when I get around to it, but changing his name to ‘Mac’ just reeks of pretentiousness.

The other night after eating a boatload of Chinese food I took at decongestant. I slept in a full bathtub, next morning it was bone dry. I’ve never been that thirsty. I was thirstier than Jesus Christ on the cross.

Nothing like some fascist ICE recruitment ads to really get you in the mood for this NFL season.

This is going to be a destruction. No way the Cowboys stay within three touchdowns of the Eagles.

HGH Natalie Portman storming back in the second set.

She really blew that first set. Glad she’s making this an actual match.

Oldest Fozz Spawn calls Middle Fozz Spawn to tell him that he now has an official girlfriend.

Middle Fozz Spawn: “Well, that’s nice but I think you’re an idiot for having a long term relationship. It’s fucking stupid.”

Finishing touch: phone was on speaker and his newly minted girlfriend was listening.

Evening Folks. Let’s get this shit show underway.

Now that kickoff is soon (right, RIGHT?1!1), here’s my Offseason MVP: Remedios, mini-bong. Paid +13,000, but that’s because she was MVP thru & thru.

I’d say don’t try to keep up drinking with Litre but you prob already know that.

What’s the o/u of bartenders that litre knows or has worked at the same place

What happens if THE OL DOUBLE J’S’ BOYS win tonight?

The future meltdown after the 1-3 start will be magnificent.

Horatio Cornblower

What happens if I win Powerball?

Because those are about the same odds.

NBC seems to think we want…MOAR Jommy Fallon? I may ask to speak to their manager.

LemonJello

What kind of deal with Lucifer did Jimmy Fallon make to stay on tv this long?

For Christmas I would like this dickweed strapped down to a table while I break every bone in his body with a shit smeared warhammer. MAKE IT HAPPEN!

Yes! Yes!

Pretty standard one, I’d think. Not one of those complex ones like Carla Gugino was handing out.
