JV Saturday Thread teh Firstest

King Hippo - September 3, 2022September 3, 2022

There's a fuckton of action (AND narrative!!) later tonight, so that will get its own thread. But don't neglect the hors d'oeveres! NC State (-11.5) at East Carolina (Noon, ESPN) NC State should never, ever play these hillbilly Deliverance extras. ESPECIALLY in Satan's taint (aka Greenville, North Cakalaky). But, because our "leadership"

Is everybody ready for some NIL-fueled FITBAW?? I fuckin' thought so. West By God Virginia (+7.5) at Pittsburgh (7:00, ESPN) A great (read: hate-filled) rivalry gets re-ignited. Suffer along with WCS, not sure anyone in the Clubhouse has positive fee-fees for JV Yinzers? Anyway, this is way too many points. Fuckers du

27 November Nighty-Night JV Thread

King Hippo - November 27, 2021November 27, 2021

Things Hippo learned today: I jinxed Beep Beep! and feel bad about it. When deliberating "nap or power through" - always choose nap (high-fives my 2p self). Cheering for tOSU and the JV Massholes was as ineffective as it was gross. I am glad I didn't bet today...except for that

2021 Afrikan-American Friday Mini-Hippo Thoughts (and JV Preview)

King Hippo - November 26, 2021November 26, 2021

Congratulations on surviving another gluttinous holiday. We will speak softly out of respect for the massively hungover. The Shield paired the traditional No-Fuck Lions with the Bearistocrats! this season. You might expect hilarity to ensue, and the participants did NOT disappoint. The game was close throughout, a fact overshadowed by its

JV Ballin’ Night Thread

King Hippo - November 20, 2021November 18, 2021

As noted this morning, I won't be around much tonight. I will likely still read the comments, as long as my battery holds out. They picked a good weekend to schedule this opera, as this late slate is liquid shit. Cal (-1.5) at Stanford (7:00, Pac12) I always like this game, as

Sorry Coach Reid - I know you read that as Beloved Parm. Today will be interesting, as I leave my recluse lair around halftime of my Wolves du Merde (Derby with Scotchy's l'Orange) fixture (that's at 4:00 on ACCN, it deserves no preview). I am off to see oldest HippoSpawn do

Oy, I hope you didn't wake up early and console yourself with "hey, at least there will be Lesser Footy to keep me company." But just think, this time next year, we will all be enjoying The World Cup That Slave LaboUr Built! Michigan (-1.5) at Paedo State (Noon, ABC) Will the rough

Look, I have given up on human society. It just gets worse by the day. Retreat into the only consistently (well, mostly consistent) good thing in life, sportsball! I also heard the best cover ever on the radio this week, just edging out my previous shempion ("Mrs. Robinson" by The

How Will the Wolven Sort Set Things On Fire? Evening Open Thread

King Hippo - October 23, 2021October 23, 2021

What did we learn early? I'll tell yew wut! Everton is vile shite. Steerfuckers North is vile shite (but still won eventually). JV WKRP did not earn the style points they may need later. 2121-22 is a challenging season for Bernard Gilkey and the lads. Oh my, when City show

As you go about your daily activities, don't you get the feeling that your city, state/province, and/or neighboUrhood could use a pretty little fire? Especially a pretty little fire that grows into an impressive, towering, gorgeoUs inferno?? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FQUFBkYmc6U OK, maybe y'all Californians ought not try this. But we can all enjoy Lesser Footy! Is
