Your “When You’ve Squandered All You’ve Earned” Saturday Evening Open Thread

So, I think I have the mood of the Commentists correct when I say that the only thing we hope for from today’s Conference title games is that Alabama gets kept out of the playoff, right? I forget who brought up Bamafreude last week & its relation to Patriots schadenfreude, but I agree with the general sentiment. It’s hard to say who’s more contemptible – Belichick or Saban. They’re both masters of fucking the rules, but Belichick at least has to worry about a capricious commissioner whereas Saban doesn’t have to worry about a salary cap.

I also kinda don’t want Wisconsin to get in, just so I don’t have to deal with a million cuts during the game to JJ Watt air-humping a Badger on the sideline. But that’s just me. However, if it came down to Alabama or Wisconsin then I say let JJ wreck another joint.

That is… a slate of games.

FOX EARLY

My guess is that I.C.E. is having this game shown along the Rio Grande in order to drive potential migrants away.

FOX LATE

█ Anchorage AK  |  █ Fairbanks AK
█ Honolulu HI

WHY THE FUCK would FOX punish St. Louis with the Rams game?
