- No sporting events I can find tonight, and I'm sure everyone can figure out what's on the the Network tonight if you have it. Science Channel is showing every episode of Mythbusters in order if that's your thing, outside of that it seems to be the usual holiday fare. Talk about whatever the hell you want, unlike Princess I want to to keep things as dirty and nasty as possible. You know how how I roll...
- Merry Christmas, and stay safe out there.
Get out of the fireplace you damn cat!
ReplyDeleteMy cat insists on trying to take off out the door as soon as I come in. She needs to just give up, she ain't getting out there.
ReplyDeleteI just realized today Sting is a Batman fan. He went from Joker Sting in TNA to Vigilante Sting. Discuss.
ReplyDeleteWho else has no family and this is just a normal day? :(
ReplyDeleteHey guy :)
ReplyDeleteYou'll always have Jesus. Did you know it's his birthday tomorrow?
ReplyDeleteCarlito's former bodyguard?
ReplyDeleteIf you ever open an Indian restaurant, you can call it Curry In A Hurry.
ReplyDeleteHe's just excited for Santa!
ReplyDeleteBingo. With you on that. Ain't celebrated Christmas in like 10 years.
ReplyDeleteMe, hence me posting this thread. I got a brother I don't get along with, and I'll see my mom for a little while tomorrow, but this is just really a day of rest for me, and one I really need. I spent today just lying down healing my back up.
ReplyDeleteHe has good taste. Batman is the GOAT.
ReplyDeleteBuffet at my familys and ate like a pig. Ugh
ReplyDeleteSort of the same with me. I have a sister who I refuse to see (asshole bigot husband), seeing mom on friday and other relatives this weekend. Also, family is jewish so no big deal today.
ReplyDeleteI'd call it Curry Powder, that was my nickname as a kid. Fucking Indians...
ReplyDeleteHappy Hannukah!
ReplyDeleteI have family, I just don't feel like spending it with them.
ReplyDeleteTomorrow can't come fast enough with all the games.
Reminds me how Willem Dafoe played Jesus and the devil.
ReplyDeleteThanks.
ReplyDeleteHowever, I haven't celebrated hanukkah in years.
Spent most of this day at the ER with Mrs. Stranger. All is well, but nothing got done.
ReplyDeleteNow I need to wrap her gifts, with gift-wrapping skills that are on a fourth-grade skill level.
I thought some of you might enjoy this. I recorded it last year.

Oye.
ReplyDeleteYou're Hot! You're Spicy!
ReplyDeleteI'm more of a festivus type of person. I have never really been a holiday person.
ReplyDeleteSo Hoss is really the All State guy.
ReplyDeleteI have shit for motor skills so everything I try to do with my hands ends up a complete failure.
ReplyDeleteI just need 24 hours where I don't need to lift anything. I can cook shit and stock all the beer separately. I shouldn't have to do both.
ReplyDeleteThat's why I have a desk job. Manual labor just isn't for me.
ReplyDeleteSet your ass on fire, son!
ReplyDeleteI wish I still had a weed connect, alcohol tastes like shit and is a poor substitute.
ReplyDeleteI gotcha, but we would probably have to ship it...
ReplyDeleteDo any of you watch the minor bowl games? I only watch them if my university is in them or if I have a bet on them.
ReplyDeleteI'd take that gig.
ReplyDeleteYou being serious?
ReplyDeleteNo no, the Bowler.
ReplyDeleteYou got a date Thursday, baby! Liam and me...we gonna fuck you up.
Not jacking the thread because I posted it, but I'm working in a Italian place, and I feel out of place there, because I'm 100% full blooded Irish. They have done they're best, but I still feel like I don't I don't belong and it sucks. Money is money though.
ReplyDeleteLooked on Yahoo sports and didn't see any, but didn't look to hard. NCAA isn't really my thing.
ReplyDeletewasn't Henry Hill and Jimmy Conway from Goodfellas Irish?
ReplyDeleteI think my roots go back to Germany but I'm not too sure. Every day I'm tempted to give ancestory. com some of my money to explore more of my heritage.
ReplyDeleteI would.definitely mail you a sack, but we probably shouldn't discuss this here. People are watching...
ReplyDeleteI'm spending the holidays alone drinking and eating frozen pizza. What has my life become?
ReplyDeleteYeah, but I ain't been there long enough yet. And I just wanna cook.
ReplyDeleteDad's side died in Holocaust with only 3 surviving. They were from Poland and Germany and most records were destroyed long ago.
ReplyDeleteMom's side I'm a euro mutt with relatives from england, spain, poland and russia. However, they don't like to say much about their past.
Jobber!
ReplyDeleteDidn't you say you were a house wife?
ReplyDeleteI'm kinda jealous. That sounds fun compared to my holiday.
ReplyDeletesharing your time with us on the BoD
ReplyDeletewhat's your holiday
ReplyDeleteI'm not eating anything, talking to you guys and playing NASCAR on the 360.
ReplyDeleteChristmas. It's just so much doing stuff out of being polite to everyone and not much in the way of fun.
ReplyDeleteI watch some because they're fun. A lot of times, it's guys playing the only meaningful game they'll even play in and they go all out.
ReplyDeleteI can totally understand. When I was with my ex, we would see her relatives. Only about 1/3 she actually liked to hang with and 2/3 were ones that if she could, she would never see again.
ReplyDeleteMine does that too. Aint nothing important outside.
ReplyDeleteI have family, they just don't give a shit. I'm watching Elementary with my dad right now because I'm visiting and he doesn't want to watch anything entertaining. We had leftovers for dinner.
ReplyDeleteYou guys are so getting busted for wellness.
ReplyDelete"Before the show, I saw Vince and Dennis talking at length, and later on, Miller was wandering around the arena, hair tousled and eyes tired, so I asked him how he was doing.
ReplyDelete“I’m doing great,” he said, his voice dripping with sarcasm. “I spent all day getting comedy advice from Vince McMahon. My life is complete.”
Classic Vince. He would’ve told Wayne Gretzky how to score a goal."
Rude: would you like a hall's?
ReplyDeleteHenning: no.
Rude: why not?
Hennig: *strings out his front bang to look like Scott Hall* because they're just too sweet.
The fuck was that exchange about?
Stupid fucking cat... dodged her and smacked my fucking head on the door frame. Next time I'm just going to step on her.
ReplyDeleteI've been there. My ex's relatives were the worst people I ever met. I was always on time, well dressed, didn't drink, tried talking to everyone and they'd all ignore me or walk away while I was asking them a question. Oh, and I'd get an earful because I "wasn't Indian enough" and catch Hell because I offended them by getting up from the table the wrong way or whatever.
ReplyDeleteBetter movie - Boyz N Da Hood or Menace II Society
ReplyDeleteTry being in a relationship with one. Worst mistake of my life.
ReplyDeleteAs long as it's not a blood test I'm good, I've done it before.
ReplyDeleteI liked Boyz.
ReplyDeleteMenace.
ReplyDeleteBoyz N Da Hood actually had something to say and was a little realistic.
ReplyDeleteMenace II Society is pretty entertaining, though.
Menace. Boyz is a little too campy and heavy handed. Menace II Society feels more raw and realistic.
ReplyDeleteI'm at like .5 Muta. Fucking cats...
ReplyDeleteSamuel L. Jackson was only in the movie for two minutes and I thought he was the baddest one in that movie. I could almost make a justification for every person dying in that movie.
ReplyDeleteMost of her extended family were drunks, stuck-up snobs, or downright just rude people. Her immediate family was cool though and we got along great.
ReplyDeleteWere they fighting? You don't try to interrupt a cwt fight.
ReplyDeleteDon't Be a Menace to South Central While Drinking Your Juice in the Hood
ReplyDeleteI always felt that coaches should get five years before getting fired; 3 years would be the bare minimum and that's only special cases like Lane Kiffin or Greg Schiano.
ReplyDeleteIt takes time to build a successful program, people no longer have patience.
ReplyDeleteNo, she's just an asshole and I smacked my head on the door frame and I'm bleeding all over. I'm trying to hold a rag with one hand, a smoke with the other, and trying to type.
ReplyDeleteTruly embarrassing.
ReplyDeleteBoyz is pretty good, but a bit dated.
ReplyDeleteHaven't seen Menace
Kinda is, yeah.
ReplyDeleteexactly. For example, John Wooden didn't win his first national title until about 15 years on the job. Bill Cowher didn't get his first title until about year 9.
ReplyDeleteI definitely feel like that's the Browns' biggest problem. They go through coaches and QBs so quickly and no one can ever figure out what's going on.
ReplyDeleteNormally I am with family, but I just didn't feel like driving this year.
ReplyDeleteThere is like nothing on TV. I was watching animals be cute on Christmas sound track. So I went to do dishes. Finished. Still nothing on.
That honestly is my favorite comedy of all time. I know it shouldn't be, but it's just so funny to me. And I give people shit for liking Seth Rogen...I suck.
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to some good basketball tomorrow.
ReplyDeleteMenace all day!
ReplyDeleteRude and Hennig were in their own world.
ReplyDeleteI loved the part where they were implying Goldberg caused Hennig to miss a PPV or Nitro because Goldberg was scared.
You don't know desperation until you decide to watch 45 minutes of "Kitten Party" on Netflix while stone cold sober.
ReplyDeleteHey, Wayans spoofs back in the day can be pretty funny. Not like the dudes who do date movie and epic movie and shit like that.
ReplyDeleteThat would haven been awesome, but I'm following my normal routine during the holidays if I have no plans.
ReplyDeleteCasinos.
Oh wow. That really sucks. Drunks and stuck-up snobs are the worst. You deserve a medal.
ReplyDeleteAnd ill never have to. Like, dafuq?
ReplyDeletewhich ones?
ReplyDeleteI was just in Vegas for a friend's birthday so don't need to go again.
Went to vegas for xmas 2 years ago and it was nice.
they also draft horrible qbs
ReplyDeleteI liked the really ridiculous stuff like the guy's dad being younger than he was. And the Higher Learning joke was great because they got all the original actors and perfectly made fun of that movie.
ReplyDeleteDelaware and Baltimore. If AC didn't suck so much, I'd be up there.
ReplyDeleteRegular wcw television would constantly be interrupted to plug NASCAR and monster trucks. They sure did know their audience.
ReplyDeleteWell, Miller needs advice from somebody.
ReplyDeleteAll bad teams do the same things. Draft bad, hire the wrong coach, fire the coach early, locker room issues, etc.
ReplyDeleteDude. I know.... I'm hoping if a GM and coach can stick around for a few years, they might try developing someone rather than drafting a QB out of desperation like Weeden or Manziel.
ReplyDeleteWait, it's an Italian place actually run by Italians? No Latino staff?
ReplyDeleteI did just some grocery shopping earlier...but I really want a Big Mac all of a sudden...
ReplyDeleteCan I count on McDonald's on being an evil company that still stays open at 9 PM?
Let's find out!
I wish that someone (like 538) would track the relationship between horrible owners and bad teams.
ReplyDeleteAlso, the relationship between how much time a new coach gets vs how good their teams are. Like if a team sticks with a coach who does badly in year 2/3, do they get better in year 3/4 or get worse.
I dunno. It's just someone who set up their GoPro and filmed kittens playing for an hour and a half. At first, I watched it because I couldn't believe they actually got it on Netflix. Then I convinced myself it was going to pay off in some elaborate joke Tim & Eric style. Then I realized I had fooled myself and just gave up. I was also playing a game on my 3DS for most of it.
ReplyDeletemcdonald's would not be evil if they are open on xmas or xmas eve night. I can't tell you how many times I have gone to fast food places on holidays.
ReplyDeleteYes! Yes you can.
ReplyDeletehow is mcdonald's being evil for being open on xmas eve night but movie theaters are not evil for being open?
ReplyDeleteOrganizations just don't have the patience they used to. Not every coach is going to be Vince Lombardi or John Madden that wins immediately after getting the job.
ReplyDeleteWhat places are open tomorrow?
ReplyDeleteThe Browns never should have fired Belichick.
ReplyDeleteGranted, that's the same organization that's now the Ravens, so I guess that doesn't really apply.
ReplyDeletehttp://www.huffingtonpost.com/2014/12/24/restaurants-open-christmas_n_6377420.html
ReplyDeletedepends on the franchisee many times. Article says mcdonalds, kfc, hooters, applebees, pf changs, starbucks, ihop
Tammy Sytch's legs?
ReplyDeleteI've been surprised with the Bengals patience with Marvin Lewis. He had a few rough years in between winning the division with Palmer in 2005-2006. Granted, the awfulness of the Bengals in the 1990s probably helps him a lot.
ReplyDeleteI was angry when the Reds fired Dusty Baker.
This pizza is kinda undercooked, but fuck it.
ReplyDeleteThat is an excellent idea.
ReplyDeleteI'd work on christmas day if I had to. How busy could you be? Plus holiday pay.
ReplyDeleteI will always choose hanging out and eating pizza.
ReplyDeletemy sister worked at a movie theater for years on xmas. She always said it was super busy.
ReplyDeletehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tfxuAI7SAMk
ReplyDeleteLike wrestling bookers. When TNA or WWE hires creative they want results immediately whereas realistically it would take a few years of solid booking to get business to improve again.
ReplyDeleteGerman and Polish on mum's side, Irish and Croat on dad's.
ReplyDeleteLotta losers like me out there I guess.
ReplyDeleteI lived in Cincinnati for a long time. I can understand why Lewis is still there. It was really bad for a long while.
ReplyDeleteFiring Dusty Baker was bullshit.
I miss Cinci.
How much money did they spend to drop sting off in the ring from a helicopter? Geez.
ReplyDeleteAlso Jewish people, Muslims, atheists...really, there are a lot of options.
ReplyDeletejust emailed nate silver of 538 with it
ReplyDeleteYour Network dollars hard at work.
ReplyDeleteGood! Hopefully he gets back to you. That's a really good idea.
ReplyDeleteBoyz and it's not even close
ReplyDeletesame with wrestlers. Austin didn't improve ratings until at least 6 months after fighting bret at survivor series.
ReplyDeleteIf only they did that stuff today,
ReplyDeleteMy dad is now making us watch Guy Fierri. I'm going to start watching the Network on my iPad soon....
ReplyDeleteAw come on, give Diners Drive Ins and Dives some love.
ReplyDeletea lot of people are like, "we opened gifts, let's play with them for a few hours. ok now it is noon, let's go to a movie." Or they go to the movies after having dinner with family at 3.
ReplyDeleteAnother one is that a lot of new movies come out tomorrow too.
Diners drive ins and dives is an amazing show.
ReplyDeletethanks. I just emailed the one with the coaches.
ReplyDeleteI didn't do the first one because what is a horrible owner? Is it one whose teams always stink, spend the least money, fire their coaches too quickly?
Just had Filet Mignon for dinner, then a movie later and off to bed. So I can get up early with the wife and kid for Christmas.
ReplyDeleteJesus... Listen to this guy and his lottery jackpot life.
ReplyDeleteYeah but you had to post on a wrestling blog before going to bed. Evening negated.
ReplyDeleteMcDonald's run successful.
ReplyDeleteBonus, they brought back the triple cheese burger. This does not make up the fact I didn't get a McRib this year.
Did you know? 10 piece nuggets are 4.29. 20 piece nuggets are 5.00. Never order the 10. I will never do so again.
yep. Blockbuster was the same. Once noonish roll around, we started seeing some folks. Then into the evening it got busy. I always had a fantasy that I never did (because I wanted my job). Customers always said "oh it sucks you have to work on Xmas." "Well I wouldn't have to you weren't here." The 2nd part would be to set up a christmas tree in the middle of the store with a wife and kid and presents. Every time a customer comes in, announce loudly that christmas is on pause because someone needs a movie. Of course once I actually had a kid I always scheduled myself to work thanksgiving and take Christmas off (never lacked for volunteers with time and a half either).
ReplyDeleteFound a 20 minute highlight video on youtube of the 1983 NFL season. I'm going to have a go at liveblogging it here because why not.
ReplyDeleteDomed stadiums seemed a lot darker back then. Also I love the bombastic music they used for nfl films in the 80s
ReplyDeleteRookie John Elway had a sweet bowl cut.
ReplyDeleteHow stupid is CMU coach going for two???
ReplyDeleteOwners can be hard to rank.
ReplyDeleteLet's take Synder. From a football perceptive, he hasn't made any major misfires in a while. He doesn't speak out in the media anymore, he doesn't interfere with the team according to all players and coaches out there other than coddle RG3 with things like team plane for surgery and that type of stuff.
If we are counting karma, he's done a lot of bad things outside of football.
Just saw boxscore:
ReplyDeletehe had the momentum of scoring 5 touchdowns in less than 12 minutes including 3 in the last 3 minutes; other team was on the ropes; just end it now.
No.
ReplyDeleteYour offense is shredding them apart. Why let the game be decided on the coin flip that is a two point conversion?
Take it to OT and outscore the mother fuckers.
Too bad Marv isn't in a different business. He could do this if his business had face to face contact with customers.
ReplyDeleteBusy thread so far. Must be Christmas Eve or something...
ReplyDeleteDanny White was an underrated QB.
ReplyDeleteThe girlfriend and her mom are huge Christmas fans for a couple of nonbelievers. They spoil the bejesus out of me with food and it's just tremendous.
ReplyDeleteI cannot stand him. Maybe it's just me?
ReplyDeleteNearly all the footage from this doc ended up in the best of the 80's show that I watched the shit out of as a kid.
ReplyDeleteI wish they'd go back to starting the super bowl when it was still light outside. It adds to the drama as the game goes on.
ReplyDelete2 weeks from today, Daniel Bryan walks into Vince's office and says "I'm ready to come back, and I'm healed enough to compete in the Rumble."
ReplyDeleteYou are Vince McMahon.
Book it, BOD. I'm curious.
What's up?
ReplyDeleteThat was not as interesting as I'd hoped it would be.
ReplyDeleteBryan enters #30 to a loud roar. Dispatches whatever Authority guys were left. Reaches a final showdown with RUSEV and gets his comeuppance for harassing the lovely Russians. Show ends with LANA locking the Accolade on Bryan with the Russian flag proudly waving. Roman Reigns beats Kane in the preshow or something.
ReplyDeleteIn our family we just give money. Sometimes you just break even, so the holiday is really just about unnecessary ATM fees
ReplyDeleteBut college OT is a coin flip too. I think the odds are better playing for OT, whereas getting 2 is less than 50/50.
ReplyDeleteTry being a Ukrainian growing up in South Buffalo. Not fun, bro.
ReplyDeleteYes. But I have only have an aunt left on my side that I'm on good terms with, and she's not in the best health to do much. And the hubby's side is weird with having wives and such... they're nice, but I can tell they can't stand me.
ReplyDeleteI ordered some New Japan merch from Yottsume last month. It finally got here today! Dumb mailmen took the shit back to the post office because I wasn't at my apartment so now I get to go pick it up from the post office first thing on Friday!
ReplyDeleteI think gift cards are perfectly acceptable gifts. Why risk buying something for someone they may not like when they can just go and get exactly what they want whenever they feel like it? The whole "lack of thought or effort" bullshit never flies with me.
ReplyDeleteI'd prefer money over cards, why limit where they can shop?
ReplyDeleteGeneric visa cards work anywhere.
ReplyDeleteDrinking some random beers and listening to some howling cat in our backyard that my wife has decided to "rescue". Ho ho, ho.
ReplyDeleteGo get that shit spayed or neutered first thing you can if you plan on keeping it.
ReplyDeletetry finding a hooker that takes visa on Christmas morning
ReplyDeleteI'm Vince McMahon? Well then, Daniel Bryan draws #17, lasts about 10 minutes and is eliminated by......Roman Reigns.
ReplyDeleteNon-starter. Allergies and apathy rule this household. We're pretty sure it belongs to someone in the neighborhood. It ain't feral, at least.
ReplyDeletethe cat too
ReplyDeleteThe high-class ones do, and those are the ones you want. Can scan that shit right on their phones.
ReplyDeleteI laughed, despite our historical infertility issues over here. +1, sir.
ReplyDeleteI had forgotten that Kung Fu Panda is a good movie again.
ReplyDeleteWhos this midget and why is he in my office?
ReplyDeleteSkadoosh!
ReplyDeleteJack Black is definitely the worse part of the movie, but I do understand his purpose.
ReplyDeleteThe Gambler wasn't very good.
ReplyDeleteGood night everyone. Don't pull an OfficerFarva.
ReplyDeleteYOU'RE FIRE!
ReplyDeleteThe singer? The wrestler? The baseball player?
ReplyDeleteThe movie
ReplyDeleteI didn't care about him, but what happened was fucked up. Truly a random occurrence.
ReplyDeleteWatching Prime Time from 12 May 86. The ring looks TINY. Also, I'm betting that Neidhart v Steele is not going to be a catch-as-catch can classic.
ReplyDeleteI wonder if DrPepper and vodka tastes like shit.
ReplyDeleteDon't randomly walk along a dangerous highway?
ReplyDeleteI have an irrational dislike of Marky Mark. Shame for Goodman though.
ReplyDeleteEh, there was at least a 30% chance it wasn't random
ReplyDeleteI have a very strong like for Brie Larson. And she does nothing.
ReplyDelete"Bryan, I hear everything you're saying, but let's talk this over some more by my pool. No, stand close the edge"
ReplyDeleteIt's probably pretty good. Vodka mixes well with most sodas.
ReplyDeleteI enjoy po's relationship with his goose father. Especially in the second movie.
ReplyDeletewas he drunk, or what?
ReplyDeleteRandom ad madness: The discover campaign "We treat you, like you treat you" is supposed to be a doppelganger/clone thing, no? So why do they negate that with the indian chicks one where they're apparently twin sisters calling each other yet one twin doesn't know the other's a call center drone?
ReplyDeleteAnd being twin sisters, wouldn't they IMMEDIATELY recognize each other's voices?
ReplyDeleteDo animals ever get accents? Is there such a thing as a "southern bark"? If not, why not?
ReplyDeleteI know it goes well with coke, DP is a different breed of soda.
ReplyDeletei thought the point of vodka was that it didn't taste like much of anything, so you can mix it with whatever
ReplyDeleteIt definitely has a taste for me, or I just don't like the bitterness of alcohol.
ReplyDeleteI need a beer.
ReplyDelete
