1 Nov 2025 JV NFL Night Thread

MOAR GAMES, demand teh ppls!

South Cakalaky (+12.5) at Johnny Reb (7:00, ESPN)

Real talk, y’all.  This slate ain’t great.  But maybe Johnny Reb sleepwalks a bit, what with all the Koach Kliff Khaos??

Steerfuckers North (+2.5) at Tennessee (7:30, ABC)

This is the actual, watchable game.  Winner clings to the leaky playoff lifeboat, loser can give up already.

Georgia Tech (-6.5) at NC State (7:30, ESPN2)

Godfuckingdamnit, YES I DO hate myself enough to watch this.  I’d be ashamed that fucking GT is almost a full TD favoUrite away to my Wolven Sort, except that I quit feeling things awhile back.

Troi Boiz (-6.5) at Cornfuckers (7:30, NBC)

The latest episode of moe-rons trying to match Fetch happen for Nebraska.  It’s NOT gonna happen.

JV WKRP (+10.5) at Team Secular Big Love (10:15, ESPN)

A Tweaker fixture worth staying up for, perhaps?  Not that I’ll be able to, thanks to being over 50.

Oh, so now they remember to return to 2nd on a Pop Out!

rockingdog

Ernie Clement now has the most HITS in a single PostSeason!!!! ⚾️

And now Snell is coming in!!!

Holy shit that’s ROCKINGGGG!!!

SonOfSpam

Why are the Wolfpack (who lost to VA Tech last week) beating undefeated Georgia Tech? They’re not supposed to do that.

WCS

You’re absolutely correct: no one should ever lose to Virginia Tech.

SonOfSpam

Yeah, even Richard McBeef lit em up.

litre_cola

Hippo gunna get that celebration pill bulleee dat

Redshirt

(counts $62 in parlay winnings) “No reason.”

Doktor Zymm

This poker episode is already wrong, they would never have the money in $50s, they unlucky

Redshirt

All I’m saying is a Vlad Jr. HR would be helpful in so many ways to me right now.

Redshirt

A weak ass grounder to 3rd? Not quite.

Doktor Zymm

Would be way funnier if you meant Human Resources

rockingdog

That Inning Ending double play was pretty ROCKING!!!

WCS

Bluue Jauys abouut tou oupeun thius uup?

rockingdog

LFG!!! Birds score again!!!

That was Rockingggg!!!

Also love the guy at the end saying “That’s Why You Swing The Bat!!!”

scotchnaut

Another big Boob Jackers inning?

Doktor Zymm

Oh Dwayne, lol, ladies gotta watch out!

litre_cola

Guys, I think Antonio Brown is in trouble again.

Redshirt

Sorry again about that.

Horatio Cornblower

Really? Is it a day that ends in y?

WCS

Got plenty of beverages, got food, restocked knee pain pills and nicotine.

Let’s see what Daylight Savings has in store…

$20 I also get mandated, so we can make this 19 hours straight.

I haven’t seen a King run for his life so much in North Carolina since MLK picked the wrong honky to hit on

We’re a very regional industry. There’s a dude with a company named Philadelphia Fabricators but they’re in the south. No idea how they picked the name. Regardless, this is all I can think of since they’re not from PA:

Gumbygirl

There’s a Philadelphia in Mississippi.

You took the words right out of my keyboard.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hell,_Michigan

Weirdly, I’ve never been inside Monroeville Mall, 15 miles from my residence. Yet, I’ve been to Hell, MI at least a dozen times over the years. My cousins are Detroiters (did you know Jerome Bettis is from there? I’ve never heard that!), and one needed to drive through Hell to get there.

Doktor Zymm

So you’ve been through Hell and back enough that it’s kinda meh by now?

Gumbygirl

I’ve been to the Monroeville Mall many times.

Buddy Cole's Halftime Show

I haven’t seen Toronto shake like this since Rob Ford confused the dope with the horse

rockingdog

And Sherzer is done. No wayyyy
That crowd is ROCKINGGGG!!!!

I wonder if he gonna retire after this season…

jjfozz

The taco bell commercial focusing on this dude who’s eaten chicken nuggets his whole life is fucking weird.

The first one that turned out to be a killer?

Doktor Zymm

Don’t know about that, but I would totally live in the shack and Harry is clearly the hottest and only pet lizard

ballsofsteelandfury

Or Larry…. (You’ll get there…)

Doktor Zymm

Larry? Stupid brits dropping important syllables like the first one!

Doktor Zymm

It is totally Harry! No trace of ‘L’!

Doktor Zymm

At least it isn’t ‘Andrew’

ballsofsteelandfury

You’ll see

Bogdanski

Have you heard one of them discuss herbs?

BC Dick

Camille for me. I guess Naomi isn’t a DS yet. Maybe constable right now but she’ll get there.

rockingdog

Oh shit Glasnow vs Vladdy Jr ⚾️

Let’s go!

rockingdog

And Vladdy flies out. Nuts.

jjfozz

Working on college essays with my son and wife. Here’s a snippet from me:

“WHY? BECAUSE I’VE BEEN FUCKING WRITING SHIT FOR THIRTY FUCKING YEARS AND NEITHER OF YOU CAN STRING A FUCKING PARAGRAPH TOGETHER!”

i got a headache, I yelled so loud.

Doktor Zymm

My best college essay was about Indonesia, and my best grad school statement of purpose was about the Euro. Maybe try one of those?

jjfozz

Good God, i’m so tired of this bullshit.

blaxabbath

I think a “during these unprecedented times…” will get you into Brown.

herodotus450

Dont forget to check the “African American” checkbox because of dear ol Great Aunt Gladys

jjfozz

Well, we are part Sicilian so we could technically claim that

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly
Doktor Zymm

From all I’ve heard it’s worse now than it was, good luck getting through til it’s done

BallsofLacrosseAndMapleSyrup

Haha. Karma for that dodgers pitcher

rockingdog

Found a funny:

god bless the magic of television for letting you see every syllable of a pitcher telling the batter he just hit “fuck you motherfucker”

jjfozz

I enjoyed that immensely

scotchnaut

If you’re looking for the game intros to be on time tomorrow, well, you’re out of luck.

rockingdog

Fight fight fight!!!! Hahahaha!!!

rockingdog

Absolute scenes. Rocking.

BallsofLacrosseAndMapleSyrup

World series brawl!

fleshwound_NPG

FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT*

*its baseball, its not actually a fight

WCS

TRUE WCS FACT: I have never been inside Monroeville Mall. In fact, I’ve only ever been the vicinity maybe a half-dozen times. Monroeville just as an entity and concept sucks.

blaxabbath

I talked all this shit about 13 months ago about have my new technology in order and I’m so fucking hot and the rest of my industry can suck my fucking nuts and I’m gonna put them all in their place in early 2025.

Well, Dave Ramsey always said of there are three rules to these kinds of projects:

  1. They take twice as long as you expect;
  2. They cost twice as much as you expect;
  3. You are not the exception.

By in large, that was advice that — well, not sure it’s advice but true. But now I’m finally done. Got a rollout going kind of 11/15, I guess. I feel pretty good about it. It still is 100 miles ahead of everyone but I think I’ve gotten all the ego out of my system and now I can just focus on a pointed three-pronged attack. We’re too small to go and punch anyone out. But the ‘value-driven’ market is primed for a “Risk Mitigation Solution”, as I’ve been directed to hammer.

Sorry sourry my quotables suck and I didn’t do Halloween. I swear I’ve been someplace better and not just defeated by the TV Show Administration ruining all fun in the world.

rockingdog

Ummm….that’s kinda a banger 🎼 🍾 🤯

Bogdanski

Mike Bidwell’s sexuality aside, you’re doing better than the Jaguars under Tom Coughlin! Congrats

litre_cola

Trying to be healthier lately. It is very tough as a stoner to be healthy when the 8 year old brought back a shit tonne of candy last night.

scotchnaut

What did Deci dress up as?

litre_cola

A pirate. Was 11 degrees here, was glorioUs. Went to a buddy’s neighboUrhood where at 3 of the houses they had a parents section with shots of tequila or fireball, beers, and Bailey’s for coffee or hot chocolate.

Doktor Zymm

Friend of mine was saying her neighboUrhood is like that, she had charcuterie for the parents!

rockingdog

Not gonna lie this Game 7 has been ROCKING!!!!!

Goooo Baseball! ⚾️

scotchnaut

Wife and kids have gone to bed-I prefer not to think about what that says about my role as a husband and parent.

jjfozz

I need to work more drugs into my life

BallsofLacrosseAndMapleSyrup

What kinda drugs?
-Hippo

jjfozz

Drugs that make me forget without going on a tri-state kill spree

fleshwound_NPG

ohtani, 3 days rest, something he hasnt done

ああ、くそ…

Toronto Boob Jackers up 3-0!

herodotus450

As a capitalist, and an AMERICAN, I am hereby rooting for the Dodgers. Home grown American Talent paid for with good ol USD!

Redshirt

Bill Plunkett
@billplunkettocr
#Dodgers Shohei Ohtani took a long time getting to the mound after his at-bat to end the third inning. Clock ran down but umpire let him warm up — umpire’s discretion on clock re-set. John Schneider questioning it from Blue Jays dugout. Threw his hands to his sides, palms up

The narrative has been set. The fix is in.

fleshwound_NPG

don’t mean shit now.

SonOfSpam

This aged like Jon Benet

fleshwound_NPG

jays leaving a metric fuckton of baserunners but ohtani’s pitch count, tho

Redshirt

Both issues seem to have resolved themselves.

Mr. Ayo

It’s a good Saturday night to RELEASE THE KRAKEN!!!

comment image

Redshirt

What if we’re watching to laugh at the Dodgers when they screw this up?

yeah right

That’s EXACTLY why I’m watching.

BallsofLacrosseAndMapleSyrup

Think I’m required to watch the based ball as part of being close to Torona

litre_cola

Mrs. Cola hates baseball and is watching.

BallsofLacrosseAndMapleSyrup

It was Mrs GTD that wanted to watch. For the second night in a row!

Doktor Zymm

Just got to the third inspector in Death in Paradise

scotchnaut

Once you get past Inspector Gadget the game gets a bit easier.

BC Dick

I don’t even know which one I’m watching now. I pay more attention to the DS role though.
I miss Camille but Naomi is doing a fine job now.

Doktor Zymm

Does she ever come back to visit her mom? You would think she would visit!

BC Dick

She does, a while later. Dwayne, too

Doktor Zymm

Wait, Dwayne leaves??

ballsofsteelandfury

And comes back. And leaves. And comes back.

BallsofLacrosseAndMapleSyrup

First one is the one we liked the best

ballsofsteelandfury

Third inspector is the best inspector.

fleshwound_NPG

as with most game 7s, it is who fucks up more than the other

one team has dave roberts (now with more lineup/rotation/bullpen responsibility with the ohtani rule!) and the other does not and is at home

Redshirt

Ohtani is starting. You can almost hear his UCL tear again.

WCS

https://www.espn.com/video/clip/_/id/46804438

Dabo, Dabo! DABO! isn’t happy, yinz guys.

blaxabbath

I like that he still has to wear the goofy old collegiate-style sweatshirt as if he wasn’t running a football program more powerful than the university itself.

Brick Meathook

If the Blue Jays lose the World Series, the key moment will be in Game 6 when the hard hit to centerfield got stuck under the outfield wall padding, and was declared a dead ball. That was a one in a million shot. The runners were advanced one base each. If the ball hadn’t stuck they would have scored two runs and tied the game.

Redshirt

One base? I thought Ground Rule Doubles counted as two bases at time of pitch.

Brick Meathook

It probably was two. It put runners at 2nd and 3rd. I was drunk at the time, also high on opiates.

You are correct, counted as a ground rule double.

-Sam I Am

Doktor Zymm

So I ended up with a twist on Sharky’s twist. Juiced a bunch of limes, ended up with around 11 oz of lime juice, added about 14 oz of tequila and 8 of triple sec, shook it all up, poured out a portion and topped with dry hard cider to taste. It works! Not sweet at all, but a nice refreshing tart flavor. More summery than autumnal but it’s warm and sunny today so that’s what I wanted. Yum!

Good thing too, since I made way too much to drink it all tonight. I’ll have plenty leftover for the games tomorrow

WCS

See, the thing is, it’s Daylight Savings, so you may as well just finish it all. You’ve got an extra hour to make up for, after all.

Doktor Zymm

I’ll honestly be amazed if I even make it to half. Lucky for me I made way too much guac also

Brick Meathook

I’m also drinking a variation of Sharky’s Mexican Apple, but instead of tequila and lime juice and the other stuff I’m using a Stella Artois and I’m drinking it straight out of the bottle.

yeah right

All of the best cocktails start with 14 oz of tequila.

“since I made way too much to drink it all tonight.”

Well, not with that attitude. Quitters never win, Dok.

Bogdanski

So the grocery delivery brought sufficient avocados? I’ve always been skeptical about that part of grocery delivery

Redshirt

Long day. Can’t share much, but all I’ll say is if you’ve had good parents, be sure to thank them. If you have kids, do not let your intrusive thoughts win.

jjfozz

Goddamn. You okay?

Redshirt

I’m okay. Its my mom’s friend. They did something incredibly stupid. That’s all I gotta say.

People are capable of amazing displays of dumbassery. This began as a simple fender-bender.. I got the primary calls for the initial hit-and-run, and then 15 minutes later when the actor returned to the scene with a firearm.

BeefReeferLives

You can always count on a gun to solve all of your problems…

Bogdanski

Don’t forget about alcohol and it’s problem solving capability

jjfozz

Gotcha

scotchnaut

Remaining parent is a C-. The kids haven’t burned the house down so that gets them a B.

Doktor Zymm

I wish I had known how lucky I was when I was a teenager, I wasn’t awful but appreciate my parents way more the older I get

WCS

My dad will always be a dickhead, but he’s gotten demonstrably better since becoming a grandparent. Some of his old extremely bad habits leak through occasionally, but, I almost enjoy his company these days.

yeah right

What you should really appreciate is you are winning this whole game by not having children.
