Them Monday Blues: Your Open Thread

It’s that dreaded time of year-no football for two weeks and the next game on the docket is when the ‘normals’ pile in and ruin everything for those of us that were slogging through third teamers in the preseason. Maybe I’ll get caught up on college or pro basketball. Or not. The game doesn’t remotely resemble the stuff I watched just 15 years ago and it’s lost its appeal.

Let’s do that usual Monday thing-

Fallout:

-Jayden Daniels had a great run and now his name is attached to postseason rook records like most yards passing, most yards rushing, most combined TD’s, highest completion percentage and so on. A sporty guy noted that this is probably the ‘worst’ team he’ll play on in the foreseeable future because the team has the third-most cap space and Adam Peters is in place. Look for the Commies to sign/draft an impact wr to pair with McLaurin, an edge and some upgrade or two on the offensive line.

-Is Spags the best big game DC in  recent history? It would seem so.

-Hurts gets all kinds of grief from Philly fans, smh. Somebody should tell them that this running QB was 18-20 from inside the pocket yesterday.

-If Aaron Rodgers wanted some sort of assurance that he continues to be the special-ist boy that ever was he must be sorely disappointed. New coach Aaron Glenn says he’s under the microscope just like everyone else on the roster and Woody The MAGA has backed off. Hopefully this assessment process takes so long that other teams that need a QB will have things in place so that Qaron ends up retired or playing for the Raiders. (sorry Rikki, but we need the laughs)

-I’d have thought that Dan Campbell would have hired within for the OC job given that he was lucky to have Ben Johnson in 2024 in the first place. Turns out he kinda did, tapping John Morton, Denver’s passing game coordinator who was on the Lions staff back in 2022.

-The Opening Lines: Chiefs by 1.5 and the O/U is 48.5.

Per the Gulf of Mexico chatter below, where are the Cartographers for Social Equality when you need them?

Okay, so I’m not all that drunk. Off to bed, can’t wait to see what tomorrow holds!

Reminder: Anyone who uses “CCP” instead of “CPC” is objectively wrong about whatever they are saying.

There is no social credit score, because America’s credit score system is more than evil enough, Trump is not pro-Russia and anyone who says he is doesn’t know shit about fuck, and the diminutive of Vladimir is fucking VOLODYA or VOVA.

I can honestly say I have no idea what you are talking about.

Dude’s a cold-blooded murderer. He probably thought Hayek was actually into him and that he could one day wear her skin.

It’s DHL and I think the driver was running behind because it’s just been reported as undeliverable despite no delivery attempt being made

Unsurprised

That’s just because DHL sucks shit

All the delivery companies do. I’ve found USPS to be the best

Just realized this is the first true LATE NIGHT HAWKEY I’ve got since I started here. Ice Stillers losing is much more enjoyable with the backdrop of geriatric falls, gas leaks, and domestics!

Holy cow. We have a KFC here over at a mall near where Wifey works. I must investigate.

ballsofsteelandfury

I think for his next trick, Trump should rename New Mexico and deem it to be New America.

WCS

See below.

ballsofsteelandfury

Which one?

WCS

Doesn’t matter. It was a lame attempt at humor.

As a kid I have had many baths in a sink just like that.

How is it that this country took the labor in those coal mines that children so enjoy and outlawed it?

First night I’ve been home alone this year and no football on?

I’m feeling a certain sense of abandon this evening that may end with me passing out on the couch (and hopefully not pissing out on the couch).

I checked and this whole “Gulf of America” thing actually ended up making eggs more expensive.

Well, as long as trans swimmers don’t win Ivy League races.

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

To my understanding the only Ivy League races anymore are Asian and WASP.

Should have just named it “Giant Basin of Bird Flu”

Hurricane Stew

BeefReeferLives

Now there’s a great name for a Zydeco band.

litre_cola

Or male stripper.

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

In that case it would be Hurricane Stu. But otherwise I agree.

Senor Weaselo

Didn’t he do this originally like, a couple years ago?

You would appear to be correct, based on the comments.

Google will change The Gulf of Mexico to the Gulf of America on Google Maps.

God damnit. Of course

We have always been at war with NATO and allied with Russia!

ballsofsteelandfury

As a Mexican, I will say that it never made sense to me that it was the Gulf of Mexico since the coastlines are roughly even.

Mexican/US Gulf doesn’t really roll off the tongue.

Probably was named back when Mexico was bigger

ballsofsteelandfury

Probably when Spain owned Mexico and the American side was empty.

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

Wasn’t it all Mexico up until Houston or so?

ballsofsteelandfury

I believe you are correct, sir

Horatio Cornblower

Google does that for all countries that have name disputes, like India and Pakistan, places like that.

The US doesn’t get an exception just because the majority of us got together and decided to let a dipshit run the country for 4 years.

“Hurts gets all kinds of grief from Philly fans, smh. Somebody should tell them that this running QB was 18-20 from inside the pocket yesterday.”

THIS. He made some absolutely beautiful touch passes yesterday. People seem to be anointing KC as “The Team of Destiny”, but Jalen & Philly’s D might have something to say about that.

And forgets where they confined her.

I would love to watch that one actually.

I would have thought society would have accomplished more before entering the next Dark Age. But nope, one Black President and “dudes can marry each other” was as far as humanity could get.

Horatio Cornblower

Hey now, chicks can also marry each other. That’s like double the progress!

King Hippo

HAWT progress!

WCS

When I tell Lil’ and Lil’er WCS I was mislead with overall progress we were taking has been stifled yet again, I’m not lying.

Jimbo

It was that dam tan suit. Thanks Obummer.

WCS

Don’t forget the Mustard Incident, and Bowling Green Massacre!

Jimbo

Yeah ppl forget that, I am one of those people. I had to google it. Dijon! why I never.

Africa has had black presidents for decades. Society accomplished that a long time ago.

They’re totes getting married. She’s becoming Godmother to Jason Kelce’s next child.

Does that make Jason Carlo, Fredo, or… not Tom Hagen or Sonny…

I think I got myself lost in my own metaphor.

What will she write songs about if they don’t break up!?

How her kids are disappointments and don’t love her like they should.

There’s a large obelisk under the pitchers mound.

Also, baseball is a stupid game. It’s not even a sport.

More legit than football nowadays. Baseball only fixes their games by market inequality. Football just rigs their games outright.

ballsofsteelandfury

The only legit sport is hockey

King Hippo

No, because Finns are good at it. Only beach volleyball.

litre_cola

Until the Leafs win the cup.

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

Tennis.

Jimbo

Baseball is fine, they need to do something about the umpires and their different strike zones.

ballsofsteelandfury

That would be pretty damn awesome!

Fans are only allowed to buy seats in the state they reside in. Locals only.

I saw this too! It doesn’t bisect the basepaths quite enough and you can’t hit a homer to New Mexico.

Just turn the field clockwise.

And play every game at dusk. I want pitchers throwing blind as bats.

Hate to see how they figure state taxes for the players.
