Your Week 6 NFL Thursday Night Football Open Thread

Welcome back, ball washers! Ball watchers! Sorry.

PSA Alert! There is another London game this Sunday morning. As always, it is Man- and Womandatory! And Gumbygirl, it makes no matter if it disturbs your Cyrillic rhythms! You must please the gods! There. Done.

Newsy Notes:

-Speaking of the overseas game, one of the advantages of sailing over there is that you get a bye the following week. (notice the Jets and Falcons are off) Well, unless you’re Miami and the league/schedulemakers don’t give a rat’s ass about you. The Jags will be resting but the Fins are playing. So, if you want to use Atlanta in Survivor at some point, your chance comes next week.

-Derek Carr suggested that every team should have it’s internal correspondence looked at. She’ll never happen but it would be nice to scrub the league of some of the neanderthal jarheads that no doubt make work environments hell. I’d set the O/U at about 32, one per team, and hammer the over. You’d likely hit that number with just the strength coaches and training staffs alone.

-Woozy Danny Dimes has not yet been ruled out for this Sunday. Some of those kids bounce right back from having their grey matter tossed around in the cabeza.

-Hey, the Senators open the season tonight and as was predicted by myself an a member of the office staff at work, holdout Brady Tkachuk was signed mere hours before the puckdrop.

To The Game!

Bucs/Eagles:

-Tampa’s #1 passing O is gonna be tangling with Philly’s #3 passing D. On paper, an interesting battle but we know what’s going to happen. You see, the goatiest of all the goats that has ever goated is on a pace right now for 51 TD’s and he’ll make things go his way.

-I myself will be playing rook wr Devonta in the hopes that garbage points will be acquired which I’m sure they shall.

-I’m also a wee bit curious about how Hurts attacks this Bucs D that no one can run on. That D has given up a whopping 13 yards to all qb’s so far. Impressive huh? Well, no. Matt Ryan, Goff, Maccaroon Jones and Brissett are included in that non-star-studded lineup.

-That said, I would take the under on Miles Sanders’ 33.5 yards rushed betting prop.

Unwatchable baseball? No problem! LETS GO RAIN-JUHS!!

[checks NHL standings]

Oh for chrissakes…

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

In case you want to relive that nonsense call again and again…

https://streamable.com/ylr1mf

yeah right

That was not a strike. He checked his swing and the ball was off the plate.

TheRevanchist

This is a devious ploy to get at me.

I couldn’t be more proud of you.

Fronkenshteen

Who were the umps at home & first?

Mr. Ayo

Holy shit. I’m literally out of vodka.

Can’t believe I’m googling the opening hours of my liquor store. Ok, 9am is doable.

Dunstan

So I watched Spectre tonight because I was thinking I hadn’t seen it and wanted to be ready for No Time To Die.

Turns out, I had seen Spectre before, but had forgotten large parts of it. It is quite forgettable, and makes no fucking sense. I mean, even for a Bond film.

Gumbygirl

Well, my darling dears, I’m going to go read. Go Dodgers, I guess?

TheRevanchist

No. Root for sure very team against them, even if it is a team of Joe Bucks coached by Hitler. You still need to do the right thing and root against the Dodgers.

TheRevanchist

This isn’t helping dull the pain. Better drink some more.

Lookit Andre The Giant here with that normal size Fireball bottle.

Gumbygirl

There’s a big basket of those by the checkouts at Von’s. I’ve seen people sucking them down in the parking lot.

TheRevanchist

You can often find me sucking down in a parking lot, as well.

SonOfSpam

Kopitar hat trick, 5 points total, Kings up on Vegas 6-1.

BRB going to bet on the Kings to win the Cup. 80-1 right now give or take.

Mr. Ayo

Not allowed to bet in my state. Put the same on the Kraken for me.

I’m totally good for it.

Senor Weaselo

God, umpires suck sometimes. Oftentimes.

King Hippo

Coverage of the drunken parking lot brawls, LIVE on CNN+

SonOfSpam

Ok, see, I’d pay like five a month for that.

Mr. Ayo

I haven’t seen a worse call since TOUCHDOWN SEAHAWKS!

TheRevanchist

These umpires must have got lots of blowies from the Dodgers. You know what they say: Dodger blue, because he needed the money.

Mr. Ayo

I haven’t seen a Wade go down like that since Roe filed a lawsuit!

Mr. Ayo

Nevermind, dirt BLEEERGH exists.

SonOfSpam

Neat. Scherzer is the chlozer.

SonOfSpam

It’ll be more interesting to see who wins the post-game fan fights.

Giants have the numbers and home field advantage, but Dodgers fans are willing to attack you from behind in a parking lot and ruin your life. They just want it more.

litre_cola

And time for bed. fuck

Sharkbait

Usually thats a good thing?

SonOfSpam

I like a good bed fuck too, especially if it’s a sexy twin bed.

Mr. Ayo

I haven’t been this anxious about a tie since David Carradine!

litre_cola

We also would have accepted the INXS guy

TheRevanchist

Banner for CNN+ in the background behind home plate. Who the fuck is going to pay for that?

Sharkbait

Morons?

TheRevanchist

Yes. That would be the correct answer. No one likes news that much.

Might as well have C-SPAN +

litre_cola

G’devenin

TheRevanchist

Not with this umpire. Dude has been calling shit outside the strike zone all damn night.

litre_cola

That last Posey at bat was something.

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

No snark here – spectacular performance by Logan Webb.

Mr. Ayo

Great job given the situation.

SonOfSpam

Like R. Kelly at a slumber party, the Kings are up after the first period.

SonOfSpam

Eagles cover!

I don’t care, but maybe someone does.

SonOfSpam

Officials did everything they could, but the Bucs still didn’t cover. Sad.

Gatoraids

Everybody covers…sometiiiiimes

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

“Aquaman cover!” – Eli, showing off his new comforter

King Hippo

Nope, now they run the clock out. IGGLES COVER!

King Hippo

I am Horny for a rushing TD here.

Mr. Ayo

Wait! They’re don’t have to kick a FG!

FUCK, Iggles covered.

WCS

VARY SMRT FITBAWLL

Gatoraids

Obligatory before its too late

Senor Weaselo

Fucktomb? Is that where death by snu-snu occurs?

Doktor Zymm

Everybody Hurts sometimes?

Sharkbait

So this is a thing for the NFL now.

https://twitter.com/nytimes/status/1448830351242051584

Mr. Ayo

I am shocked. Shocked I tell you.

WCS

Well, not that shocked.

Sharkbait

No wonder the WFT dropped the Sean Taylor retirement ceremony with 72 hours notice

Anthony In TX

Yeah, that was one of those “we ALL know what you’re doing here, jackasses” moments.

Gatoraids

Jeff Pash owned a tree removal company too probably

King Hippo

I mean, it still won’t matter. But…hubris much, Arians? Go blow up an airplane for Allah, already.

King Hippo

Though we could have backdoor cover?

Mr. Ayo

Noooooooooooo.

King Hippo

I am fading the MRSA placement man, so I’m guessing we’ll finish 31-22

King Hippo

See, Herr Hippo is always RITE

Mr. Ayo

I’m surprised you’re not better at GAMBLOR with your crystal ball.

King Hippo

wut are yew, a cop???

Mr. Ayo

I’m not allowed to answer that.

I mean, no. Haha! Of course not! Just your friendly fake internet friend!

Fronkenshteen

Can Hurts….SEE the men in the white shirts?

WCS

Starting SEEING Ben Murphy!

(No one will get this reference)

Mr. Ayo

If we’ve learned anything from the last week, nobody in the NFL sees color.

BANNER??

litre_cola

Seconded.

Mr. Ayo

Piss Off!

litre_cola

I am an editor and drive a Honda! You will respect my opinion.

Mr. Ayo

*kisses liter’s boot*

Don’t ban me!

King Hippo

at least Litre’s Cavs (and my bet) have now nosed ahead!

King Hippo

Good news – this has set the bar SO LOW for Sunday’s MANDATORY Jaguras/LOLfins tilt

Gatoraids

Bad news not low enough

Gatoraids

going to challenge her

King Hippo

EXTRA mandatory for LOLfin supporters (and that one dude who likes Jaguras??) to be in the Clubhouse to apologize to the normies.

Gatoraids

we might wake up in time for the 4th quarter

LemonJello

I apologize for nothing.

Doktor Zymm

The Turquoise Bowl!

King Hippo

THEY SHOULD BOTH COLOUR RUSH IT!!

WCS

SHANK’LOR BEGINS HER FEAST

Sharkbait

Nailed it!

Mr. Ayo

Nailed It!

July in the Shenandoah Valley was so hot and dry, the lawns were totally browned out and crispy, and the gardens dried up and died. But since then it’s been so warm, rainy, and…life-supporting I guess (?) that everything has rebounded like crazy. The flowers are gorgeous. We even had hummingbirds zooming around! Our “who cares?” pumpkin plants in the front box have nice looking fruit growing on them. White pumpkins! I’ll be damned! Don’t get me wrong, I can’t wait for the sweet, sweet release of winter’s death, but a pleasant green autumn is a helluva nice thing on the east coast.
Oh! If anyone knows anything about birds: I saw a group of three downy woodpeckers in front of my house. One even pecked at the screen door for a second. Is it unusual for woodpeckers to hang out together? I thought they were a pretty solitary species.

5chan, at it again.

Gumbygirl

Who draws those cartoons? Turrible.

Game Time Decision

OF COURSE Troy and Joe love the meatballs

Gumbygirl

Not that there’s anything wrong with that.

Mr. Ayo

Love that this Bucs offense is so great they don’t even need Evans.

Gatoraids

Haven’t missed an Evans at the end since the Avengers

Fronkenshteen

Fuckin gloree boi

Brocky

Does anyone else have a really spotty signal right now?

Gumbygirl

It’s been shitty the whole game. For a little while I was convinced I was having a stroke.

Gatoraids

I think the Philly fans will handle this loss well.

In related news, the Hurts family has contracted with ADT home security

WCS

They always do.
