It's another Mid August Tuesday, bitches! And yooooouuu know what that meeeeeeans: Fuck All. It means Nothing. Not "nothing" in terms of relative unimportance or lack of distinguishing characteristics. Capital-N Nothing, as in a sheer and utter existential vacuum. An area of spacetime so flat and featureless as to somehow have inverse

Chainmail and Chucklef**ks: 2021 San Francisco 49ers Preview

The Right Reverend Electric Mayhem - August 16, 2021August 16, 2021

Well that didn't take long. Last year's preview was basically one long mea culpa about how wrong I had been to predict that the 2019 49ers would go 6-10, when they actually went to the Super Bowl. The 2020 Niners promptly went...6-10. I wasn't wrong, just early. This year's team does not hold a whole

Hey, remember that big long screed I went on last week about how at least the Olympics were good to save us from the Summer Sports Doldrums? Yeah, now we don't even have. It's a bitter wasteland of both the eyes and the soul, where we must choose between godawful Trudge Time

Listen all! This is the truth of it. Fighting leads to killing, and killing gets to warring. And that was damn near the death of us all. Look at us now! Busted up, and everyone talking about COVID Variants! But we've learned, by the dust of them all... DFO learned.

Nature Abhors a Vacuum: Tuesday Evening Open Thread Edition

The Right Reverend Electric Mayhem - August 3, 2021August 3, 2021

Tuesdays suck. Summer Tuesdays suck more, because it stays light out FOREVER, making Wednesday seem all the more distant. But God forbid you do something fun, because you have three more days of adulting you have to get through. Going to a 4 weekday-3 weekend system would boost the GDP

(a.k.a. - the Tuesday Evening Open Thread - Beerguyrob) Hello, friends. I notice that the National Football League, sometimes known as the "NFL," is hosting their annual player selection this week, and yours truly has some thoughts.

Larry King Not Live: A [DFO] Hate Week Special

The Right Reverend Electric Mayhem - February 3, 2021

Hello, friends, just a few random thoughts from yours truly. Yes, I have been dead more than 10 days. But I was a rich old white man in America, so my every opinion, musing and whim will continue to be centrally important until the heat death of the Universe. Also, my

You know what I love about the post-January 20 news cycle? How comparatively banal it is. Yes, Smirkin' Joe is signing executive orders left and right, but 99% of that is just trying to undo damage done over the last 4 years. Yes, COVID still rages, but we are largely

Huh. Well that went a different direction than expected... I'm not surprised to be writing a followup Coaches Gettin' ShitCanned post this week. In a historically weak NFC, the Bearistocrats! still needed the Super Bonus Charity Wild Card to qualify for the playoffs. Listening to Chicago sports radio (having spent part

The Right Reverend Electric Mayhem - January 4, 2021

It's the Monday after the regular season closes- traditionally the day that the NFL Villagers lead a group of trussed-up coaches to the mouth of the volcano and sacrifice them to Has'Lam, God of Doing Something for the Sake of Doing Something. This year continues the trend of Relatively Boring Bloodletting.
