Instant Hippo Thoughts – Shitsmas 2016 Edition

Holy fuck, that was an intense Christmas Eve afternoon, eh? Makes me kinda wish cigarettes did anything for me, so I could have one and come down a little bit. A big Hippo Thanks! to Sam Bradford and Adam Thielen for patiently waiting their turns on my fantasy playoffs (locked)

Instant Hippo Thoughts – Week 15, 2016

Forgive me if I am curt with my analysis, my head hurts like it's on fire, and the WORST of the barometric pressure changes comes tomorrow. So...there's a good chance I will be dead by my own hand then. There will be no discussion of the Donks loss. It

Well, it certainly was lucky for Andy Fucking Reid, wasn't it? I mean, the Chefs DID technically win on a game-winning TD pass from Matt Ryan. In that "ppl forget that" category is that the 2-pointer when one is up 1 late in the game should not be

Christ, the Denver game sucked. Turns out you can't really play without a right tackle. Or sentient special teamers. You can only fuck yourself in the ass so many times without permanent damage. Eventually, even the Chefs will take advantage. The Ravens beat the ded Bungles today,

Instant Hippo Thoughts – Week 7, 2016

This weekend came and went. I didn't particularly enjoy it, and the Donks still can make things worse with a MNF shitshow. I am reticent. THANK FUCK for HillyBob's steadfast competence. Speaking of steadfast competence, that is all we had seen from the Vikings and Sam Bradford.

And then, there was one. HAI, Minny!! Well, I guess we could awkwardly wave to Factory too, but...let's not and say we did? I am a bad person. Some frauds got found out this week, and definitely count YOOOOUUUUUSTON amongst them. But give the Vikes credit - they absolutely
