Nut cuttin' time is here, y'all.  Also, I apologize in advance for next week's stupid international break.  Don't forget to wave at the Clubhouse degenerates who have assembled in Las Vegas! Mighty Whitey (fresh off a midweek Caribou triumph) get reeling Men Untied (fresh off a home spanking by Geordie Arabia's B

Streaks broken, vengeance earned, bullshit luckiness collisions, ded footballers everywhere.  Let's dive right in! Death #1 came in the Meadowlands, where the "visiting" Jest collided with the Vertically Enhanced Persons foj Jersey supremacy.  Unsurprisingly, it was a prize that neither seemed to want.  But would they draw?  Noooooo.  Tyrod Taylor got

Has everyone had just the bestest day?  Since I'm the only (living) Wolven Sort around (paging Warthog!), I knew y'all would have.  Talk about el beisbol if you want, but know that I will be quietly judging you for doing so. Ballsy: And he will be not so quietly judging me for

Yes, indeed.  At least that's one pissed-offedness trigger that's on bye.  Huzzah, universe! Ballsy: It's a good thing my alma mater sucks at football and I don't like them because they rejected my niece. That way I can enjoy college football without any aggravation.

Because, goddamnit.  It's Derby Day, and as usual we have no fucking chance to even swindle a point out of those Redshite Motherfuckers. The game is on USA at 7:30 EST.  Which hopefully means I will sleep through it.  Poor little grandson Bronco doesn't yet know to give me a wide berth

Well, looky-loo.  We have waded one-third of the way through the regular season.  With one turd of a Week 6 slate. Closing out this year's London series, you had Ratbirds and Tits - seemingly a pretty interesting matchup.  You know, on paper.  In reality, Balmer ran out to an 18-3 halftime lead,
