Instant Hippo Thoughts – Week 6, 2018 Season

Reflections

King Hippo - October 15, 2018

Some weeks just shit all over you. This was one of them. Herein lies part of the week's tale. All season long, Yinzburgh has shown their asses about Le'Veon Bell, in the most unappreciative, unsolidarity, anti-labour, Company Man way. I am sure it has made the Ginger Hammer hard enough to

Fuck everything, another shitass International Break is upon us. And is JV NFL breaking out the good vintage bottles to ease our suffering? Fuck and No. Your platter of turds follows: Florida at Vanderbilt (Noon, ESPN) Some peoples would have you believe that the Gators have turned the corner and are now

King Hippo - October 8, 2018

Due to some general physical malaise, I am typing this in the morning. Que lastima. What a joy it is for the sad in life (hey, LIKE ME!!) to watch a placement kicker melt down in real time. Of all people, Green Bay's Mason Crosby had his turn in the barrel

Not that anyone would notice it in North Cakalaky, where it's been hotter this past week than July and August mashed together. Jeebus Tapdancing Christ. And of course, another noon kickoff for mah Shitty Wolves to suffer through. Ay yi yi... Our beloved Premiership is being lazy arseholes and not giving

Instant Hippo Thoughts – Week 4, 2018 Season

King Hippo - October 1, 2018September 30, 2018

Holy Bananacakes, Batman! That was (mostly) fun, eh? I say mostly because I swept my early afternoon #HAILGAMBLOR, with dominating $50 ATS wins by the P*ts (boo) and the Bearistocrats! (yay-ish), along with a thrilling $60 ML win by the Pylons that be Striped. But I also learned what it felt like to score

As the universe likes to do, the schedule is at its most interesante when my shitty wolves are playing. SIGH. Syracuse at Clemson (Noon, ABC) Laugh all you want, but Cuse is the kind of physical side that gives the Tiggers fits. Surely will at least bit the yuuuuuuuge 25.5-point spread (fingers

Bye Week Updates

King Hippo - September 27, 2018September 27, 2018

What can one really say after three weeks? I thought we might see a pretty ordinary bunch of Charlatans, and they have pretty much...held serve. A dull home win over the Cowpokes, followed by a road loss inside Megatron's Butthole (ewwwww), capped by a fairly decent home win against the

Los Angeles Rams. Kansas City Chefs. Miami LOLFins. One of these three is not like the other. Yet all advanced to 3-0 this week, while the Minnesota Vikings got blown out at home by the historically bad Buffalo Bills. I still don't know how to comprehend, nor describe how that happened. Captain

Every September, there is a weekly slate of games that is just refried ass. Welcome to said Saturday. Georgia at Missouri (Noon, ESPN) Both of these teams are undefeated, but only one is any good, and maybe not even one (thus the slight opportunity for a trap game). Notre Dame at Wake Forest

Instant Hippo Thoughts – Week Two, 2018

It's 17 September, 2018. Have you seen your placekicker's psyche lately? /also HAIL SHANK'LOR!!, Goddess Bless Two weeks in, two Draws on the board, as we got a 29-29 scorigami in fat-ass cheese land. Mason Crosby missed once (nice icing timeout, Mister Winkles!!), and rookie Daniel Carlson missed a few hundred times (including dead

The Noon window is filled with hot garbage, and deserves no preview. Let us resume drying out with midday, shall we? LSU at Auburn (3:30, CBS) I am still not sure exactly who Aubie is just yet (that U-Dub win was hardly convincing), and today will be quite demonstrative. 10 points is
