Into the Offseason!: Tuesday Open Thread

Congratulations to the Seahawks for denying the Taaaawwwwmy crowd the climax they craved. Your service to America- nay, The World- will not be forgotten.

Now please go to hell.

NEWS:

-CrimeBeat! Returns, with a special investigation into whether electromagnetic waves from the Santa Clara power substation cause gunshot wounds.

Niners defensive lineman Keion White was found with a bullet mysteriously lodged in his ankle at 4 a.m. after the Super Bowl. Why not just say he was shot? Because White ain’t talkin’ to nobody about nothin’.

Artist’s Rendering

Now, according to a witness statement given to police, White was having a “private party” with a bunch of strippers when rapper Lil Baby and some associates tried to interrupt and Beef Ensued. Said witness was conveniently away reporting the confrontation when two shots rang out. White was then found with the additional hole.

First thought: “Who shoots a guy in the ankle? This sounds like a Plaxico Special where White’s gun slipped in his waistband”

Second thought: “Well, the other guy is named ‘Lil Baby’- of course a baby would shoot low”

Third thought: “Two shell casings of different calibers. One guy shoots into the ceiling as a warning, the other fires into the floor and it ricochets?”

Fourth thought: “Why would White refuse to identify the shooter though?”

Fifth thought: “Aqib Talib made up a whole big story about getting shot at a strip club to avoid admitting he shot himself.”

Sixth thought: “Yeah, but maybe he’s embarrassed about getting shot by a baby?”

Seventh thought: “Mr. Burns copped to it without hesitation.”

Eighth thought: “I miss golden age Simpsons”

Fin.

SITE HEALTH NOTE: Thank you all for your patience as we get these outages sorted. As we speak, a team of our finest neuronauts are jacked into their terminals, hooked into IVs of ayahuasca and the Spice Melange in order to better commune with the Machine Elves and figure out what borked the 3/8ths gripley.

You guys are getting IVs of Ayahuasca?

So, following up the story from earlier, the mayor of Portage, indiana is going to have a press conference tomorrow with his plan to build the stadium on unused land between the highway and the lake front

I can’t find the pictures now, but I don’t think you can build on sand dunes like that

Brocky

This is the site he wants to develop

As long as it doesn’t affect the Bass Pro Shops

Brocky

Fun fact, that bass pro is how I found out about the old site. Someone was wearing a sexy rexy shirt

But it’ll block their view of the Bass Pro Shop!

I wish the Portage bass pro looked this cool.

The one in Portage is almost an exact replica of the one in bolingbrook. Like it has the same blueprints

Gumbygirl

Isn’t that the Memphis one?

yeah right

Yes it is. Been outside it many times

Been inside exactly zero.

I thought Iowa had the soil that you can’t build on it, you cant’ grow anything in it…

Minions skater was great!

Nice writing Rev.

Now we all need to simply watch ourselves around low shooting babies, and everyone will be just fine.

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

The only thing that can stop a bad low shooting baby with a gun is…well, a jingling set of keys ought to distract them for long enough that you can grab the gun.

Did Lowratio get into the gun cabinet again?

Horatio Cornblower

Probably.

He naps there all the time.

Luge was great! Curling was great! Gonna watch some ski jumping now. It’s mixed team, so you know the women are shaved for aerodynamics. Not sure about the men…

Horatio Cornblower

Gonna ‘well actually’ you here: The larger your suit area the greater lift you can achieve, which equates to a longer time in the air and greater distance covered. So I would think that a larger bush would actually push the suit out and require a larger suit area.

And before you laugh at the idea of a female ski jumper growing her pubic hair out to incredible lengths just to pick up 2 meters on her jump, keep in mind that the men are injecting their genitals with some sort of acid for the same purpose.

NotShogunButShogun

As we were watching the mixed curling final, the gf and I had a debate which would be worse?
Double with your siblings or your spouse?

ballsofsteelandfury

At least you can yell at your sibling. There’s no coming back from yelling at your spouse.

The trick is to wait until they’re running the vacuum so they can’t hear you. Then you can yell anything you want!

Gumby, and I, and some of our friends in Birmingham wanted to start a curling team so we could instantly be Alabama state champions, but then we realized we’d have to get off our barstools.

You made the right call

Appopriately enough, the next video in the queue was Jordan Jensen talking to a dominatrix about feeding a man her shit and the man complaining that it was too salty and chewy. Fucking Gordon Ramsay of shit over here (Well, Gordon is English …).

Okay, um, how does this map make sense? The more I look at it, the worse it gets.

We get all of Ohio, but not northeast Ohio because the Cleveland territory, but we get all of northwest Ohio because Detroit’s claim ends at the state line, but we don’t get all of Indiana because of Chicago. I guess two teams gets you across a boundary. West Virginia is weirder. We get Charleston but not Parkersburg, which is not only closer but is literally touching Ohio. Don’t mess with the Pittsburgh Pirates Broadcasting Network!

We get all of Kentucky and Tennessee and western North Carolina because Atlanta put all their money in WTBS.

And Mississippi. We get northern Mississippi. We’re a goddamn small market ballclub that can’t afford to keep its supporters but our reach extends to a Gulf State?!

According to the analytics guys a lot of times going for the ankles is the smart play.

I have to be at the airport to pick up Mrs. Horatio at 11:33 pm, which is right about when the sleet storm should be at its height.

Because of course it is.

Unsurprised

Isn’t that why they created Uber?

I have no idea why when we travel together, Uber is fine, but I have to drop her off and pick her up.

Just wanted to go on record, and say that Hippo is quite vexed at how the Cherries ass-blasted Newly Disappointing Everton this aftermoon.

I wonder if there is a rapper named Wee Child? Or DJ Preemie? Their hit song could be “All Grown Up feat. Us”

Horatio Cornblower

I was wondering is Beef Ensued was another rapper involved in the ankle shooting.
