Tuesday Night Open Thread and 2021 GLORIOUS BUFFALO BILLS Bye Week Update

So, apparently they played football last weekend? The Big Bye (wherein nearly 20% of the league was idle) hit especially hard this year, because it included the guaranteed AFC Champion Buffalo Bills. Did I go there? Yes I did, you craven weirdos. GUARANTEED. AFC. CHAMPIONS. That noise you hear from Orchard Park?

Tuesday Night Open Thread and 2021 San Francisco 49ers Bye Week Update

So I missed the traditional Bye Week Update window for the Santa Clara 49ers (2-3, third in the NFC West by virtue of not having played) largely because I didn't realize until Sunday night that they were on a bye. And that is somewhat telling about the team so far: mediocre,

They’ve Got Us Surrounded, The Poor B*stards: 2021 Buffalo Bills Preview and Tuesday Open Thread

[Author's Note: Yes, this is the Tuesday Evening Open Thread.  Jack shit is going on tonight, and as of now the biggest NFL news is Tyrod Taylor being named the Texans starter.  Given that Jack Easterby has replaced the Texans medical staff with three faith healers and a televangelist, I

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

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

Are These the Worst Uniforms Ever? (Or, DFO Mocks the MLB All-Star Game Unis)

Yes, I'm sure that by the time this posts it'll be old news, but they dropped the uniforms for this year's All-Star Game (originally in Atlanta but moved to Denver because Georgia doesn't want to let those people vote, and by those people we mean people who normally vote Democratic

Going Down the Poop Shute: Your Germany European Lesser Footy 2020 (in 2021) Preview

Hello everyone, and welcome to Germany's European Lesser Footy's 2020 (in 2021) Preview. Seeing how Germany is one of the few countries North Americans have to learn about, I'll keep this section fairly brief. With the exception of Berlin, I've been to the major cities and areas of Germany. It's a really

The Gang Defecates on a Super Corpse

As y'all may have heard...we had Lesser Footy WWIII this past week.  Of course, there are still fixtures this morning (Hammers/Chelski being the highlight, spotlighted at 12:30 on Big Boy NBC)...but there's a turd in the punchbowl, over-powering the flavoUr.  DFO's crack(head) team of Lesser enthusiasts tackle the big issues!

Your The Super League is as dead as Prince Philip Open Thread

Today has been an interesting day. Somehow, someway, reason and logic have triumphed. Both in Europe and in Minnesota. The Super League is dead and the rats are fighting each other to get off the sinking ship. Manchester City was the first to declare their intention
