A Symphony In F-Minus – Week 11 MNF Thread

Yes, you get a guest conductor tonight.  And boy howdy, do I ever have a RIPE TURD to present y’all.

Cowpersons (-3.5) at Raiduhs (8:15, ABC y ESPN)

The twin visages of HI I’M MARK DAVIS and Creeping Death Jerral Jones.  The mind just boggles.

Both of these squadrons are absolutely putrid, but the ‘Persons at least have a competent QB, WR1, and placement man.  Vegas has Maxx Crosby and a post-apocalyptic wasteland of immense proportions.

That said, Dallas is absolutely capable of losing anywhere, anytime, anyhow.  It’s just an organizational principle at this point in time.  They briefly made the Qards look almost competent.  You are watching this because you are fond of car crashes/train wrecks/mine detonations, as long as it doesn’t involve sacrificing your own flesh.  Hey, don’t feel bad about it.  #MeToo.

However, Hippo will at least have the distraction of NC State/VCU hoopsball, as Will Wade (aka “The Man In Black”) has Hippo and all his wolven fellows ALL IN.

Neither Hippo nor Other Hippo has fuckshit MOAR to say.  So here’s the best new song Hippo has picked up this month:

Damnit. And now I’m playing ketchup.

That’s about enough of this game for me, I’m gonna see how the protagonist in my book tops himself in the stupid stakes. Most recently he asked a cop if he was there to arrest him before the cop even mentioned his missing wife

Good things happen when your QB leaves his feet….

Hey everyone, during halftime please seek out Ryan Lizzo’s post about his ex-girlfriend (Olivia Nuzzi). The ending is amazing.

Sanford and the brain worm guy, wtf.

Oh. My. God.

The thought of those people fucking each other is truly stomach-churning.

When you see that this Raiders team has 2 wins it really highlights just how terrible the 2017 Browns really were

blaxabbath

Didn’t get 17 games to prove themselves.

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

Yeah, that probably spells the end for my fantasy chances.

A FIFA game just broke out!

Horatio Cornblower

Guyton’s got a career in Serie A if this football thing doesn’t work out.

BallsofLacrosseAndMapleSyrup

Can the Dallas D and Kicker combine for another 30 points, so I can beat Spam this week in FVFFL?
Prob nawt but a few more sacks and picks pls

Horatio Cornblower

I’m gonna vote no on that one, although I think I know someone here who will second your motion.

SonOfSpam

Sourry about my unbeatable Brissett/Michael Wilson combo this week.

Horatio Cornblower

Just like the old Gypsy woman said!

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

You’re not supposed to call them that anymore. It’s “females” now.

BallsofLacrosseAndMapleSyrup

When Kelcy is ones leading scorer with 19 and change points, one does not deserve to win

Yay!

And also

Ugh!

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

Same here, but in reverse order.

Horatio Cornblower

Maxx Crossbbyy strikes me as someone who is not going to thrive once he leaves the NFL.

Doktor Zymm

You never know, maybe he’ll open a bakery and sell sacks of baked goods

BallsofLacrosseAndMapleSyrup

He feels like more of a florist

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

Well, that was the worst possible thing that could happen from both a personal rooting interest and fantasy perspective.

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

Horatio’s odds have gone up considerably:

Horatio Cornblower

Oh, 10.5 points for Raccoon With A Meth Pipe!!

(The Dallas pick-6 on the next drive will be a backbreaker)

Horatio Cornblower

Malik Hooker almost made me look like a genius right there, and that is hard to do.

Doktor Zymm

This game isn’t nearly as much of a derpy shootout as I was hoping for so far. So annoying when bad teams cancel out instead of amplify their craptitude

Horatio Cornblower

I have to say, Raiders fan do have the best costumes.

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

Yes, it’s very comforting to be able to hide our identities so well.

Mr. Ayo

It’s to hide the tears I assume.

RTD’s Dallas defense gambit seems likely to succeed.

My god that O-line is more theory than fact.

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

And it’s as much of a theory as “vaccine shedding”.

“Ashton Jeanty’s going to be a good player” says Troy Aikman, then proceeding to list a number of reasons why he won’t be.

Sounds like my performance review.

I’m never willing to pay the surcharge for that. Wait…we’re talking about hookers, right?

When cops are asking me about those banging sounds coming from my trunk, duh.

That’s probably the least surprising thing I’ll see all day.

Seems like a real cement-head.

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

It’s nice to see George W. Bush seeming so active and engaged, unlike those ten minutes he spent staring off into space on 9/11 when he was told that “America is under attack.”

Horatio Cornblower

The Raiders decision not to cover Lamb seems questionable.

+5 for Horatio just now.

Horatio Cornblower

I have faith that the combination and Dak! and Ferguson will lead me to an agonizingly close loss.

Oh Dubya, we didn’t misunderestimate you after all

Bush just let Peyton know Maduro was also behind a plot to kill his Dad

Jimbo

He also told us there was weapons of mass destruction.

Horatio Cornblower

Was Maduro even in any kind of power when Dubya I was a thing?

It’s fun to see the Raiders Spider-2Y-Banana-ing their way down the field.

They were saying that the last time a sitting president went to a game was 47 years ago, so that would be Carter? Who was he a fan of?

SonOfSpam

Well, he was a Georgian, and he lost, so the Falcons?

Gatoraids

s president, Carter attended Game 7 of the 1979 World Series between the Baltimore Orioles and Pittsburgh Pirates—and later invited the Pirates to celebrate their championship at the White House. However, President Carter’s real passion was softball – he frequently organized competitive softball games with Secret Service agents, staff, friends, and family. 5

I just learned the Cowboys employ a fullback.

Moose Johnston has a side gig as a parking valet at JerralWorld?

Doktor Zymm

I haven’t been drinking much recently, especially at home, so my wine rack is sadly neglected. The book I was reading earlier had a couple mentions of nice reds so having a glass of a rich Cabernet. (The main character is a colossal idiot, it’s not a fantastic book but I really am captivated by the depiction of a complete ass getting himself in trouble in 1900 Venice)

ArmedandHammered

Flashman goes to Venice?

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

There’s nothing that saddens me more than a neglected rack.

Horatio Cornblower

That’ll do Raccoon With A Meth Pipe. That’ll do.

Was listening to Florio and Chris Simms this morning (I know, I know). They opened the show by complaining about their drivers that drove them home right to their doors. Jesus.

I’m hoping for a couple shots of HI IM MARK DAVIS and Tonight Girlfriend during the course of this shitocolypse.

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

So apparently the Saudi Arabian investment vehicle is in talks to acquire Warner Brothers Studios, which as any sleazy Hollywood insider or Eli Manning can tell you owns the film rights to the Harry Potter intellectual property. If this goes through I’m looking forward to the newest chapter: Harry Potter and the Orb of Stupidity.
