All Hallows Eve Eve Open Thread

FUCK, do I ever hate Halloween.  I know, I know.  But Hippo, you hate EVERYTHING.

Larnin’ of the day:

  1. Lookit you, Sparty!  Have that Sparty Party after all.
  2. Ole – not ded yet.  Nuno…not great, Bob!
  3. Vile Redshite drop points to Trash Birds, despite being spotted a 2-nil lead.  At home.
  4. You can bury Texas for another year.  GOOD JERB, BayBay.
  5. It is patently unfair that JV WKRP gets “style points” hassle, but Steerfuckers North can shit their pants all they want.
  6. We really need a 12-team playoff, and right soon.
  7. It’s becoming more than a bit uncomfortable, the increasing level of in-game confusion of CBS’ geriatric broadcasting team.
  8. Maybe not as uncomfortable as the Dan Mullen hot seat, though.
  9. The 3:30 window, contrary to my “can’t fall off the floor” expectations – was no improvement.
  10. Mikel Arteta remains a very handsome man.

Ole Miss (+3) at Auburn (7:00, ESPN)

This week at DFO, we learned that JJ Fozz is a War Damn Eagle supporter.  Things Hippo NEVAR would have guessed for $400, Alex?

Kenfucky (+1) at Mississippi State (7:00, SECN)

We shall see if Blue Moons of Kenfucky is legitimate tonight.  Win or lose, there will be incessant cowbellery.

Paedo State (+19.5) at (theeeeee) Ohio State (7:30, ABC)

That home loss to Illinois.  Woof.  Still, this is way too many points, even in The Sportsball Year of Redshirt.

UCLA (+6) at Utah (10:00, ESPN)

This is awfully late for a student body that’s like, 70% caffeine free.  But this will be one of THREE solid tweaker fixtures this week.  Secular Big Love and Westwood Klavern both need this one.  Bad.

Virginia (+2.5) at BYU (10:15, ESPN2)

This is awfully late for a student body that’s like, 99.9% caffeine free (surely one or two apostates exist).  Bronco Mendenhall homecoming/revenge game, so consider me mildly intrigued?

Fresno State (-2) at San Diego State (10:30, CBSSN)

Those JV Boltmen! really do that “no style points” thingy, but undefeated they remain.  Fresno will be a stern test, even if they’s all out of Emo Carrs.

Reclusive, vulgar Broncos fan. Also a proud fookin' Evertonian. Likely dropped on my head repeatedly as a small child. [Insert George Carlin quote followed by thoughtful nod.]

Thank God there’s no video of Kyle Beach’s assault, because Bill Wirtz would make you pay $19.99 to watch it on HawkVision

I know. You are all still too hyped up front the Fresno State win to sleep. I just had a whiskey sour to help with that same problem. So I am about to start my journey to sleepy time. Good night, you fabulous peeps.

Mr. Moderna has kicked my ass. Goodnight peeps. Sweet dreams!

Mr. Ayo

That fleshlight was not lightly used.

This Wahoo-Mormon match-up is going to set BANANACAKES records.

/game finishes with the same score

Virginia was down 28-7 at BYU, just took a 35-31 lead. Not quite halftime.

On ESPN2 if you’re looking for something to watch where no Trumps are in attendance.

SonOfSpam

And BYU just went back ahead 38-35. Still 1:27 before halftime.

SonOfSpam

UVA back up 42-38. 22 seconds before halftime.

Mr. Ayo

Tweaker Plaid.

Mr. Ayo

Anyone that bet the under on this contest should be banned from betting.

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

I’m sorry but I refuse to disparage anyone who bet that a bunch of Mormons weren’t going to score.

WCS

Is blowing a 3-1 lead the new 28-3? WE CAN HOPE.

Mr. Ayo

Isn’t that GSW lore already?

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

Oh man if it were anyone but the Asterisks I’d be all over that.

Horatio Cornblower

Whoever has that police whistle in Atlanta needs to be taken out and shot.

SonOfSpam

That would mean you’re all for shooting Atlanta cops, which…

Nvm all good

Fronkenshteen

Atlanta radio guys are alright. Just enough homerism to let you know who you’re listening to. Play by play guy sounds like a pack of Chesterfields come to life. Baseball on the radio will be what I’m listening to when I die.
