Or perhaps with a cabbage fart, who can really say in advance smgdh.
Arsenal and the Robins Hood kick off our footy morning (7:30, USA) with the big story being the big fat Forest owner ending his passive aggressive spat with Nuno, and replacing him with another big fat Greek bastard. This one being the dude who just finished 17th with Spurs. Oy vey.
Fulham and Leeds get TV coverage (10:00, NBC) over Everton/Villa and Sunderland/Palace because they really want you to buy Peacock premium. Which Hippo has already done.
Spotlight Dance is a forgettable Spurs/Rum Ham tilt (12:30, NBC), followed by a jump back to USA for Beesus/Chelski at 3:00. Pass, and hard pass. Not with alternative sportsball options.
As to JV NFL, the day proffers the following:
Oregon (-28.5) at Northwestern (Noon, Fox)
On the plus side, make it snow’s beloved Mildcats have SUCH a body clock advantage. On the other side…literally everything else.
Clemson (-3.5) at Georgia Tech (Noon, ESPN)
The Tiggers have done absolutely fuckshit to deserve being MOAR than a FG-favoUred away from Death Valley. Other than not being Georgia Tech.
Wisconsn (+21.5) at Alabama (Noon, ABC)
Yeah, I’d guess Roll Damn Tide is likely still angry enough to throttle the Badgers. Because boy howdy, are they bad. But the GAMBLOR advice is – POUND THE UNDER. No matter how low it seems. Thinking this finishes sommet like 21-3.
Georgia (-3.5) at Tennessee (3:30, CBS)
Jawja tends to be the Vols’ kryptonite, pretty much eternally. One suspects that Happy Appy transfer QB finally hits the wall today. That said, should UT actually run out to a 2-score lead, I doubt UGA really has the kind of offense to play catch-up.
Southern California (-20.5) at Purdue (3:30, CBS)
One benefit to all these road favoUrites? You know somebody is absolutely, positively going to end up blowing their own dicks off. Might it be the Troi Boiz? Lord, I woild NEVAR stop laughing…
Yinzburgh, But JV (-7.5) at West By God Virginia (3:30, ESPN)
I’m just here so I don’t get fined. By WCS. Who would be mighty crochety if we downplayed this whole Backyard Brawl just because Fuckers du Cousins lost to non-THEEEEEE Ohio.
South Florida (+17.5) at Miami-FL (4:30, CW)
I’m not sure this matchup is really good enough (can USF really get another scalp for the locker room wall?) to play hide and seek to find your local CW affiliate. But the cheerleaders will be hot.
Shit. I need to turn this off. I am a Pitt jinx.
Yeahhhh baby! Buh- bye, dumbass.
This game is already pissing-yourself drunk.
Yeah, I feel drunk just half-watching it. Like any sane neutral, main TV on UT/UGA
Expecting these Backyard Brawlers to do a good is like asking them to vote for their own economic interests.

Fuuuuuuck!

Pittsburgh has 2nd and goal from the 28.
JV NFL BLITZ!

Speaking of fat fucks, Kirby Smart is really letting hisself go
I could have kicked that better!
HAIL SHA’NKLOR
dammit
Pittsburgh already with a 3rd and 21. JV NFL BLITZ!
I don’t think I’d be kicking no MOAR placements. YIKES.
c’mon, WCS. Y’all can’t really lose to a quartered back named after a freaking COW…
Pitt’s QB is named Jared Lorenzen?
We’ll manage.
We’ll see.
It’s Anthony Rizzo day at Wrigley and he’s sitting in the left field bleachers.
The Cubs just hit a home run to left field and it bounced off of Rizzo’s hand.
You could read his lips and he said “That’s why I retired.”
Unreal.
As I said elsewhere, he was a Platinum Glover, not a Platinum Hander.
(He played it like a first baseman on a high throw which is hard to do without a glove.)
Also it was the hitter’s first career homer!
Very cool stuff. Plus he just sang the 7th inning stretch with Eddie Vedder and Cindy Crawford.
He’s been pounding beers all game.
LOLDABO!
Wramblin’ Wreck drills walk-off field goal, 24-21.
Career long kick from the kid.

LOLDABO!!!
Pitt’s defensive line is going to give WVU’s o-line swirlies before stuffing them in a locker.
I’m using a humorous analogy to convey I believe Pitt’s defense will be able to do whatever they want, you see.

I predict that by the NFL playoffs the truck manufacturers will drop all pretense and just include in their ads that “it’s so American that ICE will not pull you over if you’re driving this truck.”
ICE on the inside (none of that pussy Electric) means no ICE on the outside!
Men pound pistons in cylinders not rotors spinning in stators. Hydrocarbons not free electrons. Fuck yeah!
I thought you were all about the electrons, nuke?
Neutrons, babe, free neutrons. Electrons are for the electricians.
I don’t trust neutrons. Pick a charge!

In things that frustrate me to no end, I can’t find the stamps that I swore I put in my glove compartment so Padre Weaselo wouldn’t take my stamps while he’s at the apartment.
So I had to buy two stamps to mail my quarterly taxes. Like a PEASANT.
oh shit, I need to do that too. But I don;t wanna SOVEREIGN CITIZEN!!!!11111
Just put “IRS Revenuers” in the return address corner of the envelope and drop it in the mailbox! it’s untraceable!

Heh heh. Good old Stampy.
This is why I support Grover Norquist, because he ‘s for the elimination of taxes AND the Post Office.
And pretty much anything else that makes modern life possible, because Grover Norquist sucks, you see.
Just do it on the IRS site.
See that would make sense if I didn’t leave it to the last minute and could get to my laptop today.
Yes, my procrastination is costing me time and/or money. (Also not sure but I’d have to check about the state tax.)
Bucky Badger is like a high school team out there. If JV WKRP wants that coach back, he’ll be available soon (maybe even before November)
Forget JV. The Varsity club may be calling if they don’t turn it around this season.
Quit playing with your food, Oregon. You’re making my $5 parlay nervous!

Ducks don’t even chew …
For those who care, Canada’s women beat Australia 46-5 to earn a date with New Zealand in the Women’s Rugby World Cup semifinals.
anything to bring gloUry to the Canadia, eh?
This gloUry was well deserved.
What an inspiration to the 2025-26 Leafs, surely!
If the hierarchy of women’s teams is anything like that of the men’s, that’s incredibly impressive, and also New Zealand is going to slaughter them mercilessly in the semi.
all coming up Germie, just like fuckweasel Kennedy drew it up
Dudes name is actually “Germie”
Imagine the balls to name a kid that, knowing that they might be picking out your nursing home one day.
Jokes on me I guess, since he just scored a toucheddown

Looks like our foster dog is finally going to hit the road. A mother-daughter combo has been vetted and they’re going to meet him today after travelling 4 1/2(!) hours one way.
/good boy
Oh, also while on the Vineyard I finally found a copy of ‘100 Years of Solitude’ so now I’m finally gonna find out how ice is made.
Oh, you’re headed to the Vineyard? Have a drink at the Black Dog and be sure to say hi to Muffy for me!
Oh and keep freezing that pedophile Dershowitz out of every conversation.
I learned that the Black Dog is actually a bakery, although they’ll sell you a beer.
I bought a $5.50 chocolate chip cookie that was perfectly cromulent.
There are still Muffy’s? I thought that ended in the 80’s, along with Lily Pulitzer dresses and popped collars on a polo shirt.
I still have a brass ring I stole from the carousel there.
Bahahahahahahahahaha. Great goal! (Own)
Wow, there are own goals and then there’s THAT own goal.
Yikes.
They’ve shot people in Colombia for less.
And for more.
They shoot a lot of people in Colombia.

IT’S LITRE TIME!!!!
I will take it
– Coach Reid, responding to a Horton’s employee’s query as to whether he’d like any poutine on his [whatever they serve there; I don’t know, toast?]
Doughnuts, and Andy Reid will have his doughnuts smothered in poutine, thank you.
OK, that was a fantastic try by Fulham.
Would have been better had it gone in the goal, but that was still impressive af.
I turned on the FoxNews XM stations on my drive home yesterday and couldn’t find any Charlie Kirk talk. Back to why the Federal Reserve needs to be independent but also “work for the President”. So I turned it off because the humor was gone for me.
I got a hangover now but that was a good time. Cleansing. Like going back to your high school town* and running into the dude who had stole your girl back when and you get to see how they’re now in rural wherever and one of them assassinates the other one at a public event and then yells it is your fault but anyways they both still run to the supportive arms of her dad that battered and fingered the shit out of that chick’s young body long before your 15-year-old-driving-a-clutch sex skills taught her what love-making really was. And so you feel good, you know, knowing that you dodged that figurative (and possibly literally a .308) bullet of a life.
Oh! One other good thing to come out of this — I got a TON of work done listening to that coverage. I may go back and download some of the right wing podcasts for just that Wed-Fri episodes to listen to as my like coding music. Just put on the headphones, tone out reality, and start building tables in spreadsheets…
* I was even IN TUCSON when Kirk went all ung-hIN-nuhhhhhh
Can RTD build me a request line playlist of just rightwing podcasts from that period?
RTD is the DFO AI bot, right?
didya solve the maze? Don’t be leaving us hanging like a closeted Dungy!
No. The maze creator’s dad had to bring me the answer.
Canadian women’s rugby team is walloping the Beckyroos from Australia 31-5.
This is one of the worst matches that I have ever seen. Setting up for the anticipated heartbreak

Lovely weather in Leeds this evening.
West London. Must win.
We went to Martha’s Vinyard yesterday, (because we’re very fancy, and more importantly because Mrs. Horatio had a work thing), and my phone died so I couldn’t get on the internet and instead spent the day bicycling all over a very nice island and then had a few beers and went home and went to bed.
My conclusion is that Martha’s Vinyard is a very nice place that I could never conceivably afford to spend two weeks on, let alone live, and also that the internet was a mistake.
That sounds like a lovely day
Did you visit a certain Farmers Market?
I think that’s only on the weekends. But it was on my list.
This is the 1st game I actually expect to win. So they will lose in the 93rd minute.
Onward to GLORY!!!
Am awake and it’s good to see that Greek psycho get his comeuppance.
I just can’t believe both those big fat Greek fucks can be on the team plane for Zooropa travel.
Should really get into Greek football. All the owners are fucking nuts. PAOK’s went on the pitch with a gun a few years back.
Greek psychos have a storied history of comeuppance.
You’d think that, but the less witnesses to this prison-sex of a disaster, the better. Sigh.
Let’s goooooo Mountaineers.

Swedish for Chris Wood makes a footy point!
Madueke doing the hard bit again, what a tidy player.
Madueke looks shit hot to me. Why did Chelski fuck him off so casually? Hippopotami want 2 noe.
All my Arsenal mates are very happy with that transfer.
I’m not going to pretend to be an expert, but he looks very good every time he takes the pitch.
/puts away “Lesser Footy Lingo 4 Dummies” book
Not to worry, I’ll be your eyes on the late footy.
Brave, brave Fronk!!
