Various happenings from our 2nd MANDATORIUM of the season. Let's roll through Sunday's even dozen offerings, eh? I like a 6/4 split. To me, that's perfect. I start flagging in the late window, so 4 is plenty to keep me engaged without being overwhelmed. You know what is overwhelming? Being the

4 Oct 2025 JV NFL Evening Thread
Much like the Timeline itself, this slate ain't getting no better. Guns Up!! (-11.5) at JV 500s (7:00, ESPN) Talent (the visitors) v. scheme (imaginary JV hosts), in a classically random Big Twalve battle. Guns Up!! seem to have spent very well, but Houston coach Fritz has his bunch "punching up" successfully
Lacklustre October Footy Thread
Instant Hippo Thoughts – Week 4, 2025 Season
Be thee warned in advance, I started a round of prednizone Sunday morning, so I am grumpy as fuck. Also...gesticulates at Wolven Sort. This will be less than half-arsed. We mandatorily got up and watched a shitshow from Ireland, Yinzburgh beating SKOL 24-21 (score deceptively close thanks to ample garbage time
27 Sept 2025 Night JV NFL Thread
Pop your TV-watching viagra, because the hits just keep on coming! Bear Down FOAR Midterms (+6.5) at Cornpone State (7:00, ESPN) Iowa State really doesn't have the explosive offense to really pull away, most weeks. Maybe the Fightin' Blax will stand their ground? Oregon (+3.5) at Paedo State (7:30, NBC) Ugh, Darkest Timeline. I
Autumn 2025 Begins In Earnest
Instant Hippo Thoughts – Week 3, 2025 Season
Man, some days, weekends, TIMELINES are just a giant pile of liquid shit. Why not join the party, Week 3? Soundtrack of the earlies: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mr_uHJPUlO8 But who would finish the JORB? Well, the P*ts, committing FIVE turnovers in a very dumb loss to Yinzburgh, 21-14. I shall say no MOAR. RRRRRRRRRRRRAM IT!!?? Yep. They
20 Sept 2025 – JV NFL Evening Machinations
I hope everyone enjoyed the early proceedings. And/or your midday nap. Here's what remains of the day: West By God Virginia (+13.5) at Kansas (6:00, FS1) Comebackery in the Backyard Brawl means WCS' Fuckers du Cousins have a pulse for this matchup. Still dunno what KS has got this season. South Cakalaky (+10.5) at Mizzou (7:00,
New Derby Fuel – Kashyap Patel is a Redsh*te
I learn so many interesting things from my trans-Atlantic imaginary frenemies (ie, NSNO - the Everton message board), but this is the tidbit that might have finally broken me beyond reason. Kashyap Patel is apparently a Redshite supporter. NOW, do you believe me about this...monstrosity masquerading as a football club being
Instant Hippo Thoughts – Week 2, 2025 Season
Some games/weeks are harder to summarize than others. Gesticulates wildly at Week 2, hides under bed. OK, I just turned the TV off (tablet still on Donks/Humps FULL, because I hate myself) after seeing Dallas win The Personhood Derby, 40-37 (OT). The lead changed hands eleventy-billion times in Q4. It seemed final when
