[arrives home late from work, runs to computer] No time for a little story, guys. TO THE GAME!
NO/Car-The last time the 4-5 Saints met the 3-6 Panthers the final score was a very fantasy-friendly 41-38. Brees went bananas and pulled out the win and that was without his full complement of wr’s-this time around Willie Snead will play. Carolina counters with cb’s Bradberry and Johnson being healthy. I think Cam will look in the direction of wr Benjamin quite a bit because he’ll be matched up against a banged-up Breaux or some player that’s even worse. All in all, this looks like another high-scoring and entertaining tilt.
Also, don’t forget to check out Freeballin’ Football’s latest podcast down below. Will the circular scar around Bill’s nipple heal before his wife notices? When will the voices in Nick’s fridge stop telling him to ‘kill all the hobos’ every time he reaches for the mayo? What prompted that cop to arrest Josh for ‘Molesting Church Property’? Will someone finally tell Tim that the Santa Tooth Fairy Rabbit isn’t a real thing? For the answers to these questions and some blather about “The Football”, be sure to tune in. By the way, if you’re a fan of matching voices to avatars, the incredibly tolerable Darkest Timeline Zack Morris is a guest squawker this week. Will his infinite wisdom change the economic course of several nations? There’s only one way to find out…
I’m done-LET’S GET GOING!!!
MORNING TRIVIA! (that no one will read!)
The Raiders (O.Co Stadium – elevation 43 ft.) will play the Texans (Reliant Stadium – elevation 49 ft.) at Estadio Azteca – elevation 7,349 ft. If the two NFL teams with stadiums with the highest elevations played in Mexico City, what would the matchup be?
Answer below.
Broncos (5280 ft.) vs Cardinals (1070 ft.)
So I just looked it up and the consensus among the mouth-breathers who interpret dreams, apparently my nightmare(s) portend fear of some sort of catastrophic change or transition, which is weird since I went to bed genuinely excited for the first time in forever about applying for a legal job.
Maybe it’s because this is all I have in my life: applying mostly for jobs I don’t actually want and bitching about shit I don’t and shouldn’t care about with you all and then going to twitter and wanting to go insane reading more about stupid politics. I have no friends, family, hobbies, job, volunteering, or anything else in my life. It’s stupid to volunteer when I have nothing to volunteer except all the time I do have when I’m not applying for jobs because I am also procrastinating due in no small part to 99% of this shit having nothing to do with going through law school twice and taking the bar exam twice over a year and a half. I didn’t do all of that not to be a fucking lawyer, and until yesterday I didn’t even know what kind of lawyer I wanted to be, and now that I do I’m still fucking it up and I am so fucking angry and upset about this I don’t know what to do with myself (and punching a heavy bag doesn’t help because I can’t focus my anger towards it without almost hurting myself because boxing isn’t a joke).
What kind of law are you leaning towards? And until you’re experienced, keep your wrists tight. You’ll punch a lot slower but you won’t end up in a cast.
You are older than the kids I work with, but if you were one of mine I’d say, “What kind of _____ do you want to be, since there different kinds of _____?” Then I’d help them find a practical path toward that goal.
My brother went and spent a year studying environmental science before deciding to become a corporate lawyer, because he needed to get that out of his system.
The only advice I can rationally offer right now is to give up twitter and find a local cause you’d like to devote time to this winter season. Directing some of that energy into a cause might help to clear your mind, and could help you find a different career path for your schooling. I ring bells for the Sally Ann every year, and it helps give me my perspective on working with street kids.
Beyond that, you’ve got friends here that can offer other suggestions.
Volunteering also occupies some of the time that you would otherwise be swimming around in your own head getting angrier. Also gets you around other people and potential friends.
The schadenfreude of a team named the Braves displacing 31 white families is making me tumescent.

This reminds me – can one go to one’s local Black Panthers office to let folk know that once the race war starts…we want on their side?? Or can one not do that in a race war?
There aren’t any to tell that to. You’re just fucked.
But seriously, there are six times as many whites as blacks. I think you’re safe.
well, technically, it will be “everybody Steve Bannon doesn’t consider white” and there will be considerable StormFront input, I’d imagine. So, the numbers will get whittled down. Plus…fuck those guys, man.
Let tonight remind you – we’re all gonna die soon, but perhaps we can at least get the Divisional Round in first!!
