Fortunately, the nighttime offerings from the JV gods are improved. Ballsy: Hippo, why no mention this morning of the traditional Big 10 Battle between USC and UCLA??? For shame! California (-6.5) at Stanford (6:30, PAC-12) And the band is on the field! Nothing is ever quite going to top THAT. The Golden Shower

Reflections on Redemption and Some JV NFL Previews
There is no Premiership action this morning. Hope you remembered to sleep in. This Autumn has been interesting for Hippo, to say the least. Denver started 1-5. Everton had one point at the first international break. NC State...was doing NC State things, losing at home twice (ND and Louisville), and getting

11/11 JV NVL Night Thread
Treasure these full sportsball days while we got 'em, y'all. Plenty of good shit, once again. Ballsy: Speaking of, I highly recommend Metamucil. Ole Miss (+10.5) at Georgia (7:00, ESPN) Jawja sure is living right. They have tough games on their schedule, just every one (except next week's trip to Knoxville) is between

Instant Hippo Thoughts – Week 9, 2023 Season
We'uns approximately 50% of the way through the NFL regular season. Week 9 brought pills, thrills, and bellyaches - just maybe not exactly where you expected to find them*. *Grandson Bronco REALLY likes to knock Precious Pill Bottle off the nightstand. Good thing the little maniac is cute (pay no attention

Mighty Whitey (fresh off a midweek Caribou triumph) get reeling Men Untied (fresh off a home spanking by Geordie Arabia's B
Instant Hippo Thoughts – Week 8, 2023 Season
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
