I’m a bit kerfuffled in that I thought that the preseason sked always finished on the Saturday night. But here we are with a Sunday night (not even a matinee!) tilt. However, given the teams that are playing, I get it, no one cares.
Minutiae Alert!:
-Will Grier’s going-away present to Old JJ and his new toy was a 300+ yard offering. Don’t feel too bad for Grier-between his work on The Waltons and the league’s general manager’s tendency to recycle qb’s into their mid-30’s, he’ll land somewhere safe and sound.
-Just to belabor a point, these are some of the qb’s that played yesterday: Matt Corral, Nate Sudfield, Brandon Allen, Kyle Allen, David Blough, Tyrod Taylor and Blaine Gabbbert. I guess I get it-the longer you’re around, the more systems and attendant nomenclature you pick up the more valuable you become.
-41-0. That’s quite the statement that The Payton Boys made.
-Shoutout to Mark Davis’ last ‘tonight girlfriend’ (provided for free by a certain agent) and her advice to get a deal done with Josh Jacobs before the season started. The deal is worth ‘up to’ 12 mil, which means it’s actually worth about 9 mil with the rest being paid out in bonuses like being voted the Most Outstanding Player in the 2024 Grey Cup.
-The Panthers lb Bumper Pool was released today. Social media informs me that his sister Infinity is inconsolable.
To the Game!
Texans/Saints:
-Really?
-No, Really?
-I’ve nothing to say. I eagerly await the Thursday September 7th, when the Lions and Chiefs meet up and everything becomes real.
Have at it.
Thinking of going with Sacrificial Calf as my FF team name.

Ciao Tutti. Napoli won.
Let’s hope Napoli go undefeated
Uh, is that an Adam’s apple this person trying to hide with stock Instagram pose Nr3, or it’s just someone that decided to do skimp on the bolt on mods by going to the nearest FIAT bodyshop?
Also geeeeewd morning to any DFOers still awake in this ungodly (for them) hour
Nevermind, did some quick googling and .. yeah, I may be in the minority, but that woman looked better without the Pep Boys bolt-ons.
Having some wild mood swings today. Sometimes I hate everything, sometimes I only hate 96% of things
Just concentrate on the 4%. And be well, we’re counting on you.
working on dat mime game, yo.
Menopause
Well, there’s only one thing you can do in such cases – plan your meteoric rise to the White House and then you can actually act on your darker impulses 🙂
I could help her with that.
Bold strategy, Cotton.

Owner: “I’m tired of us losing the games due to a kicker choking. Do you understand me?”
GM: “Crystal clear, sir.”
Kickers aren’t people.

I did the unthinkable and reactivated my Facebook account after 6 years away.
It’s actually cool to see my people. I love these people.
And I get to share gratuitous travel photos with everyone.
Portugal in a little over two weeks.
Fucking ready for this.
What?! Two Sundays from Football’s Glorious Return and you’re abandoning us for Real Peoples?!
That reminds me, I gotta send my hotel some extra info to pay city taxes or something
It’s like 7 Euros a day or something.
Yup, that’s the one
Ships in the harbor are safe.
But that’s not what ships are made for.
If the NFL can’t be bothered to put two professional teams on the field for this game, I’m going to bed.
Later, Taters!
And Lemonjello didn’t wake up until next January
Do starters just not play in the preseason at all?
Week 3 is the new Week 4 (almost none do)
Jimmy Graham is still playing football? What happened to his basketball career?
This looks almost like football.
Who are the other guys playing the Saints?
It’s got to be a college team, maybe? Like an all-star team or something?
That would explain the star on their helmet.
I thought they were India celebrating their moon landing with generic space imagery
WOOOOOOO
(This was a residual GWS Woo)
Clete Blakeman! Fitbawl is almost here, people. THIS IS NOT A DRILL!
This, howevah, IS a drill:
At least you know you;ll get anal! – Ballsy
I call bullshit. No one should EVER get married without having sex first.
Two thumbs! Depressed FOAR Monday! Happy for rain!!
Here we are.
Just shut down the Sunday Gravy Test Kitchen for the season.
Football soon come!
That was some great hustle. Visited Genny (cheese chick) the other day and loaded up. She still didn’t have the red pepper peceronchino… that stuff must be brutally seasonal. But… Eyes open Buddy.
Is the internet out? WTF? You people need to get on the ball. Chop chop, savvy?
It’s too damn hot. It’s almost 90º here. Unbearable.
What are you talking about? Its Week 3 of Preseason, so I signed in, only made a comment or two and then called it a day.
Lucky you didn’t pull a hammy
Hello?
Miami (Ohio) QB Brett Gabbert sends message to Miami Hurricanes ahead of season opener: ‘We’ll show them’ – CBSSports.com
Isn’t that like the ant mocking the boot?
Loser has to keep the state in parentheses in their name for the whole season
That or loser can’t use the word “Miami” and has to use the city they reside in, “Oxford” or “Coral Gables”.
Wait, Gabbert? Are we looking at a long-awaited sequel to The Flow?
Finally finishing the last beer from my advent calendar. Lol.
Have been drunk a few times but went with vodka soda kinda drinks as that’s what Mrs likes, so in theory should have been done awhile ago, but here we are
I like the Will Grier Theatricum Bonanzacum up in Kabonga Canyon
That’s a pretty cool helmet they made up for the banner image!
It’s part of the East vs West intro
