Wakey, wakey, chucklefucks. I am reasonably burned out on Lesser Footy, but I did want to pat myself on the back (and fuck up my c-spine even worse) about this Shempions League DFO predicion: 2. Pick a Shock Result! King Hippo – Maccabi Haifa are going to beat somebody in the Holy Land – the

Your regular host asked for a fill-in, so he could sharpen his tools for the winter "harvesting." What did we learn early? We got an announcer boo-boo late in the Commies/Tits fixture! The name that shall not be named. Clippers du Merde and #ThePauls are the stupidest teams in the NFL, and

Arkansas (+2.5) v. Texas A&M at JerralWorld (7:00, ESPN) A specially scheduled game to serve one man's ego, in the temple to said ego.

Despite the calendar disruptions for the Slave LaboUr World Cup, Lesser Footy still works in a stupid window for international friendlies. BLECH. Hope y'all slept in.
