I had this idea in my head and I wanted to put it on paper before I forgot it. The rainy day turned out to be the one Saturday Night before the NFL starts playing games on Saturdays. As your favourite deejay used to say back in the day, I'll be

It's all the Democrats' fault, of course. Los Ángeles has been cruising along for over 80 years with nothing more than an atmospheric river every once in a while and then HILARY comes along and ruins everything. Wake up, sheeple! As of Saturday morning, Hurricane HILARY is a category 3 hurricane off

Scotchy kills hobos for our amusement on the football open threads. What would you like for me to do and relate to you? Because preseason football has started and we need something! I have some stories to tell but I know Hippo will judge me very very WASPily. See, the funny thing

As much as some of you liberals around here are glued to your phones reading about the latest indictment of Trump while masturbating furiously, I have been enthralled by the latest round of college football realignment. Many have decried it as a sign that greed ruins everything and tradition doesn't

It happened again. I'm sitting here enjoying a nice little Saturday, perusing Hippo's Morning Thread and I AGAIN think, "I wonder what our wonderful writers have cooked up for tonight's Open Thread." Then I realize AGAIN, "Oh fuck. I'M supposed to be writing it!" To my credit, I've been busy today. I

Fuck Me, I need a calendar. Or an alarm or something. Lately, every Saturday, I get to DFO in the afternoons after reading Hippo's Morning Thread and think, "I wonder what our wonderful writers have cooked up for tonight's Open Thread." Then I realize, "Oh fuck. I'M supposed to be writing

I know you are all anxiously awaiting the Grand Finale of the Gold Cup or, as Hippo calls it, the Golden Shower Tourno. The participants are a resurgent Mexican squad that seems to be rounding into shape after looking like shit in the last month going against a tough Panamá team

I am writing this only two hours before post time which I should be commended for. That's improvement, people! The reason I wanted to include the Spain preview in tonight's Open Thread is because: It helps with the word count. I don't know much about the Spanish Women's National Team. The Women's World Cup
