16 Nov 2024 – JV NFL Thread (Part 2)

Huzzah, we are back for another helping:

Arizona State (+8.5) at Unded Bill Snyders (7:00, ESPN)

Poor little Sparky, 7-2 and absolutely nobody is buying it.

Oregon (-14) at Wisconsin (7:30, NBC)

Another week, another super-extensive, prime-time turd for NBC.  On top of Notre Dame playing a schedule that would make a decent high school program blush..

Tennessee (+10) at Georgia (7:30, ABC)

Game of the Day by a far sight, and even this is a double digit line.  UGA is a dangerous, cornered animal – but they might just not be any damned good.

Kansas (+2.5) at Original Recipe Big Love (10:15, ESPN)

Damned shame there isn’t a flipping companion, otherwise I could make a case for staying up to watch this’un.

A few years ago there was a major drought in the Southeast, so bad that Georgia ran a desperation play in which they tried to claim that the state borders were drawn incorrectly way back in the good old days* and that Georgia was entitled to most of the water in the Tennessee River.

While dubious, this claim never amounted to anything because it started raining again and, I believe, the claim was dropped.

What I’m saying is that Tennessee needs another deluge of Biblical proportions to again defeat Georgia.

*By “good old days” they probably mean “back when slaves were still a thing” but that’s another story.

Horatio Cornblower

Narrator: It did not, in fact, rain.

yeah right

Yesterday I wake up.
Need a piss.

Take a piss and the toilet keeps running.
Shut it off at the valve.
Valve starts pouring water.

Call landlord.

This is why I rent by the way.

Dude comes over
Takes a look
I’ve got a brand new toilet, low flush.
New water line from the wall.

I’m shitting in tall grass!

Singularly weird day.

Horatio Cornblower

New toilet and you’re still shitting in the grass?

Man, I don’t know for sure but I doubt that’s going to play in Portugal.

Come on Vols. I root for chaos

Doktor Zymm

Now kaos v. chaos, that’s a fight I would watch

Just finished “The Water Knife” by Paolo ‘name too long to write’, wow. Awesome shit.

This was mine from earlier today; probably about the same time WVU was shitting the bed after Rape U.

Mr. Ayo

Did you tell him he can’t park there?

Horatio Cornblower

My dog is watching me eat a spicy jambalaya as though I was going to give him any, because I was curious to see what this spicy concoction from hell would do to his digestive system.

litre_cola

While watching JV football I learn about all sorts of new disease and the pharma that will help with only mild psychotic side effects.

Horatio Cornblower

Say what you will about RFK, Jr., (and believe me, I will too), he’s dead-on about Pharma not being allowed to advertise.

Gatoraids

Definitely doing his best to bring back Roosevelt

Doktor Zymm

His first order of business is going to be removing floUride from the water

litre_cola

Been a disaster in Calgary aka Texas north

Horatio Cornblower

Eh, I’m on a private well.

jjfozz

Personally, I like the pick. I think he’s got some good, solid ideas that need to be polished before he presents them to the public.

Horatio Cornblower

I just hope there’s a Sirhan Sirhan, Jr.

Brick Meathook

Healthcare advice from a heroin addict is always a good idea.

Brick Meathook

I feel a cold coming on, starting with a sore throat and congestion.

So tonight I’m going with OTC night-time cough syrup, pineapple juice, vodka, prescription opiate painkillers, and maybe some peach yogurt.

This should be a wild ride. Stay tuned.

Gumbygirl

I’ve been fighting one off for about three days now. For me, it’s been Dayquil, white wine, and 20 mg gummies.

litre_cola

I appreciate that hustle

there is a Raising Cain’s near our house, we have been there twice. I woudl rather eat raw muskrat after it’s been on the side of the road in August.

SonOfSpam

Yeah, when it opened up out here, there was much rejoicing, and I fail to understand it.

WCS

Went to a new one back in the summer; I didn’t get anything after my buddy spent $14 on three mediocre looking chicken fingers and a biscuit without a drink.

Gumbygirl

It’s kind of meh, especially that sauce they’re always bragging about. I like Popeye’s way more.

jjfozz

THIS BOURBON, I CALL IT NINA HARTLEY CAUSE IT’S GOING DOWN REALLY EASY

WCS

BAH GAWD KING THAT’S BOURBLE’S MUSIC

jjfozz

Yes, I’m committed to Lady Bourbon tonight. She’ll lead the dance, and I’ll follow. And throw up around 4 in the morning. I can’t resist.

SonOfSpam

Nina Hartley, having a big week on this site.

jjfozz

The gods on Olympus got together when they gifted her that ass. Seriously.

litre_cola

She did once complain of soreness in her profession.

Horatio Cornblower

So it’s an aged bourbon?

jjfozz

Put up the walls in the shed today. The middle Fozz Spawn helped, although his bitching broke the meter before he engaged. He was making cuts that would take me hours to make. Luckily, he still hates me.

Update on that fucking 3D printer: apparently the one we bought only uses special files, the kind that are impossible to find anywhere on the internet.

Those fucks better be ready to be on the receiving end of my wrath. Cause someone is going to lose a lot of blood.

Doktor Zymm

It would be poetic if you stabbed them with a knife you 3d printed on their machine, or maybe just a jagged piece of plastic from the housing

jjfozz

It’s fucking crazy. Why would you build a printer that didn’t accept the goddamn files that every other printer uses? Vengeance must be served, like a piping hot plate of homemade pasta.

jjfozz

“If that guy wasn’t a QB, he’d never get any action.” My middle son with an astute observation.

I’m sleepy

Mr. Ayo

Hi sleepy, I’m Mr. Ayo.

Better than being hungry.

Mr. Ayo

I’m that too, sadly. *fires up delivery apps*

Shout out to the Salukis!

ballsofsteelandfury

Um, UGA is not a dangerous, cornered animal. They’re getting thrashed by Tennessee.

litre_cola

Are they?

blaxabbath

Do you guys in CA get a ton of alerts when there is a storm possibly hitting and the electric company gives you regular updates on “red fla g warning in effect for leeward communities” about possible power shut offs?

I’m not complaining. But, having never witnessed a weather event before, can I get attention for this the way people do when like, there’s flooding “back home”? Can I keep checking my phone at dinner and be like, “I’m so sorry. I never do this. There’s just….there’s a red flag warning in Hawaii and I’m really keeping up on the alerts.” And then everyone needs to be like, “ooooh. oh. sad for you. can we help? oh wow.”

ballsofsteelandfury

Yes, we do.

Doktor Zymm

I don’t, but my particular town doesn’t seem to get red flag warnings. We are directly on top of the Hayward fault though, so if disaster does strike it’ll probably be completely warningless and in that case I don’t mind if you garner sympathy by talking about how worried you are for your imaginary internet friend who may have fallen into a fault

Horatio Cornblower

We’re getting them in Connecticut.

None of you are special.

Brick Meathook

I’m on the Golden State Platinum Plan where I receive a warning on my phone 12 hours before an earthquake.

blaxabbath

I’m taking the Mrs to a magic show at a ballroom in some hotel.

I’m bringing a gently used fleshlight for trade.

Gatoraids

magic word is Fidelio

Horatio Cornblower

Don’t take a cab there; they’ll know.

Senor Weaselo

If I say Lenore does that count?

Horatio Cornblower

NEVERMORE!!

litre_cola

Has she taken edibles?

Baylor deserves to be reabsorbed back into the Earth’s crust, and it also can take Neal Brown with it.

Embracing the feeling of being a loser and spoiler. GO GATORS

Redshirt

I can attest, its a good feeling dragging a team and its fanbase out of the playoffs and into the gutter with you.

Wow, this is like word-for-word how I proposed to Mrs. Horatio.
