Pre-Draft Saturday Meanderings

King Hippo

, ,

As Horatio mentioned earlier this week, I too have pretty much no thoughts on the 2025 Draft.  Is it because the QBs are so shite, at least in top-end potential (it is, however, a GREAT market for those seeking cheap QB2s)?  Is it the oppressive gloom of liberal democracy’s death throes?  Is it gas??

Fuck if I know..  As always, I will hope for a solid, developmental LT prospect – and not get one.  Fatty Payton just doesn’t draft or roster build like I prefer.  It is what it is.

Everton get TV coverage again, at least in the Colonies.  City of Men visit the Old Lady (Goodison Park) one last time (10:00, USA).  Villa and Geordie Arabia get the Spotlight Dance treatment, as they jostle for Top 5 positioning (which will be good enough for Shempions next season, per the weird new rules).

Enjoy the Easter bunny resurrection, for all those who celebrate.

arguably the two best goalies, the two starters in the 4 nations for usa/canada, are on pace for a 6-6 game

Yes! Have to appreciate anyone who wants to continue living in Winnipeg for longer than their 1st contract.

This is an oblique The Weakerthans reference and I’ll hear no different.

Listen, The Weakerthans are a very fine band but please do not make me think about them at a time when I am worried about my cat’s health.

Litre just turned off the women’s NCAA gymnastics finals for a hockey game. He is wrong for doing that.

I started to mock him for the Flamers not even making the Ice Playoffs, but then I remembered he prefers the Ice Blue Bombers

I stand by my decision. Until it’s 3-0 Blues then a rage walk will happen.

It’s very strange to see bitcoin advertised on television. Like, you don’t see the Swedish government buying ad time to encourage people to purchase and hoard krona.

Did I just buy this book primarily to make jokes about Duke WCS taking his rightful place as the ruler of Mexican and Texas?

I mean, it’s not like he’s going to do any worse than at least the current guy in Texas.

Every time I hear them (as I did minutes ago), I remember how really fucking good INXS were. Too bad that guy had to kill himself whilst masturbating.

This tune doesn’t get played nearly enough these days. A residue of the fact that it was banned from many American radio stations because it dared to reference inter-racial relationships.

Clarence and Ginny Thomas are working on getting it banned from youtube, too.

I don’t recall this one being verbotten on Cakalaky radio, but the Charlotte station that carried the Top 40 countdown wouldn’t play George Michael’s “I Want Your Sex”

Happened in Huntington WV too.

which is why there ain’t no premarital sex in Cakalaky or West By God, amirite??

You could always check out the airport on one of those motorized carts.

Or maybe another way…

/watching the women’s hockey World Champeenships

Was just gonna say that the Finnish goalie’s technique seems a bit wonky and then Canada scored.

/crowd attendance record was broken easily before either of the semifinals were played

“It being Staten Island, nothing of value was lost.”

In fact, the property was assessed at a higher value.

Is there a west ciast equivalent of like these comicly-bad places in the northeast? What part of LA is New Jersey? Or Staten Island? Am I a two hour flight from my very own Quiznee (Tommy from)?

1
scotchnaut

My spotty recollection of Staten Island’s bad reputation was that it was populated (starting in the 60’s) by made Mafia men, corrupt union figures and street cops that took bribes. I’ve no idea if there’s a similar spot out on the West Coast.

1
ballsofsteelandfury

If you’re looking for a town populated by cops, run by cops, and that actively discourages anyone not associated with law enforcement to live there, you can’t go wrong with either Covina (the OG, not WEST Covina) or Glendora.

1
Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

In the LA area? Probably Chino. In broader California? I’d say Stockton.

Pretty much the whole IE. I mean, there’s a reason they call it Fontucky

Senor Weaselo

The barista at the place I go to to get Senorita an almond milk latte at work finally asked if we were engaged. Not currently, the rings she recently got were at a Tibetan place on St. Mark’s and the grounding and jade rings spoke to her.

In UFL “football” action, Street Louis quarterback Manny Wilkins’ knee wen asplodey by itself. It was completely non-contact, he crumpled immediately, and needed carted off. That was possibly Teddy Bridgewater-esque.

From what I have gathered over the past few years, some in the Clubhouse may relate to this.

Other accessories include a cardboard Stanley Cup wrapped in tin foil-to be paraded around by said delusional fans.

Beautiful track. I’ve got a good friend who works for the Daily Racing Form and lives in Lexington. That’s where he goes for live racing in his free time. We bonded over the Rodney Dangerfield film “Easy Money”. Dumb fun for big dopes. We still call each other Monty and Nicky because of that film. Pick some winners, kid!🤓🐴

Marika is hoping for a Napoli win today and an Inter loss tomorrow which would tie them on top of the table.
