Senor Weaselo - July 27, 2022July 25, 2022

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P1O_cR8WUYA Yes, yes, welcome to Wumbo Wednesday (image courtesy of Know Your Meme), and keep your applause until—well that ended quickly! Jerks. Anyway, I’m taking this vessel over as my own damn soapbox. What can I ramble about? I don’t know, then it wouldn’t be a ramble. Sometimes I may use this

Got No Gas: Your Jets At/After the Bye Post

Senor Weaselo - October 20, 2021October 20, 2021

Well, time for that time again. The part where we either laugh at dumbasses for being way too high on their team, scowl at jackasses for being pleasantly surprised at their team, or grimace at smartasses for being perfectly right about their team. That's right, it's time for the DFO

Man, that was good stuff! (is typing at 12:15 EST) Dimes throwing it around like crazy, that bananacakes last-second upset and that leg fracture. Ouch! Hopefully the second half of games can keep up the pace! To The Games! Jets/Broncos: This is my Survivor pick-don't let me down Hippo! Look for both Williams

Angel’s Share, East Village. 2:47 am, August 30th, 2021 The taxi pulling up exactly on time, a lone passenger tilts his head to see the upper floors of the surrounding high rises before daring to even reach for the door handle. Just another Sunday night, no different than those before where

Well, Back Up the Hill We Go: Your New York Jets Preview

Senor Weaselo - August 17, 2021August 16, 2021

Hey, nice of us to pop back in the Greek underworld for a bit! Senor Weaselo and Hades are currently mid-bottle of wine (white, Senor can't drink red) and mid-conversation about… something. Senor Weaselo: Anyway, I'm saying you might be able to capitalize on this. Hades, lord of the Greek underworld: Senor,

Your Jets at the Bye Rant

Senor Weaselo - November 16, 2020November 16, 2020

The minimum word count's still broke, so let's do this: Let's put 5 minutes on the clock and see what I can type out. Ready? Go. The New York Jets are BAD. Forget winless bad, a lot of teams can do that. I'm talking great works of badness in history. I'm

I quote from a synopsis of Oedipus Rex, "His self-punishment (blinding himself) reveals that he believes his suffering is deserved". That sounds about right, doesn't it? Perhaps that's a bit dark and melodramatic but on the other hand I might be preaching to the choir. (snorts) Well, this is where

[turns BEST BRA EVER! admercial off] It's almost too much football, isn't it? Kidding! No, it is not. TO THE GAMES!!! Jets/Bills: Did the Vikes front office giggle a bit when they traded the league's best downfield wr (% of passes caught 20+ yards from LOS) to the Bills so that he could

Oh Yeah, It’s Time for a Jets Preview (or, Quarantine in the Underworld)

Senor Weaselo - August 18, 2020August 17, 2020

Scene: The underworld! Hades, the god of the Greek underworld, and Persephone, his wife and the goddess of both the underworld and vegetation, are at home watching the Marble League, because of course they are. Persephone is wearing a Raspberry Racers shirt, while Hades is wearing, out of all teams,

Horatio’s ‘Let’s Try To Get 5 Out Of 32 This Year, Dumbass’ Mock Draft

Horatio Cornblower - April 6, 2020April 5, 2020

This year's NFL draft runs from April 23-25 and will be a somewhat more subdued ceremony than in recent years, in that teams will be drafting remotely. It'll still be on TV, (I assume; I mean ESPN has got to show something besides old Michael Jordan games, right?), and we'll

Shall we get right at it? We shall. TO THE GAMES! Jets/Bills: [shakes head] The Jets won 6 games? How? Anyhow, it's not a far reach to posit that as a kid, Josh Allen must have thrived during 'unstructured playtime'. Browns/Bengals: Much like Sex Panther, this game smells like Bigfoot's dick. One must give Cincy

Another Jets Preview in the Underworld, 2019 Edition

Senor Weaselo - August 13, 2019August 13, 2019

Right, this. Uh, shit. I haven't been down in a while, being busy and all. Eh, let's start this and I imagine someone will call and yell at me. So! Another year, another Jets preview. Oh, another coach, this time replacing Todd "Not Sally" Bowles https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uhIt69v0yzY (I've wanted to use that for a
