Nothing brings excitement to the air like the anticipation of Arizona/Seattle national games!
The battle for mid-tier rights in a garbage division turns the dial all way up to seven tonight as Russell Wilson and his Duane Brown-reinforced invisible offensive line prepare for a shootout with Adrian Peterson and “The Quarterback Who Held Off BLAINE GABBERT”, Drew Stanton. Aging-but-solid backfields for both squad should provide explosive hits in novelty uniforms and adequate fodder for I HAVEN’T SEEN TWO UGLIES BUMP THIS HARD SINCE _____ takes. So slap on your Kangol and jam an entire Fruit By The Foot into your mouth (just like you jam that Loose Change DVD into your Xbox) and get ready for some football-on-3-days-rest!
This Gen Stat of the Game:
Combined record of 4 teams Cardinals beat: 5-21 All in last place in division.
Combined record of final 8 opponents: 34-30, 33-23 minus NYG.— Jody Oehler (@radiojody) November 7, 2017
Seahawks/Cardinals: Vegas has SEA -5.5 (O/U 41.5). A final score of 18 to 25 seems quite implausible in the modern NFL but it does kind of make sense for these two teams. The redbirds D is a competent matchup for the Seahawks while Arizona’s Drew Stanton-led offense appears (to this sports expert’s surprise) to be alright with focusing on just handing the ball to Adrian Peterson. Seattle (5-3) is a game behind RAMMIT after falling at home to the [*Redacted] s while the Cardinals (4-4) are a paper swan — with half their wins having come against SF –who need to, starting tonight, double-up on SEA and beat RAMMIT during DFO-con to have any real shot at a tie-breaker-based division title playoff birth.
Fantasy Notes: Eddie Lacy is out (groin/overactive chewing) so you’re gonna want to plug n play Thomas Rawls (or, not — ARI has a strong rush D). Dion Jordan is expected to make his first appearance for Seattle because, hey, it’s been a few years since Pete Carroll has gotten some production out of an injury-prone headcase. Only Arizona player worth starting is Peterson so, naturally, I have Fitz plugged in and expect JJ Nelson to record 75% of Drew Stanton 165 yards on the YACs of two passes.

This weather in Vancouver is just the worst. I’m just full of anxiety and generally in a bad mood these days. Had a really bad anxiety attack on Monday or Tuesday.
I noticed a lot of people at work today in an irritable mood.
Random advertisement observation: Flo from Progressive is right in my swim lane.
Seriously folks…you’ve no idea how dark some folk can get. See the light and embrace it. And know you might’ve saved someone from going horizontal instead of vertical. Cheers.
I will re-invest $119.83 of my $512 suck-out funds on VMI +22 in hoopsball tomorrow. Only had to pay +105 in vig, even!
/of course I was happy to get -105 for SEA at -6.0 instead of -115 for -5.5, and look how much money that fucked me out of LOL
I hated calculus in college, but what you describe seems just as complicated.
How many toes do you have left?
OK, back to work.
Your Friday spank material ain’t gonna post itself, ya know.
Night folks.
What’s your theme?
I’m honoring a request of beerguyrob’s as a sort of sendoff for him.
It’s a surprise.
VodkaSamm?
PUSH!!!!!
/better than nothing
That’s 100% a win
And Shankhor saves Hippo’s ass!
WHEW
/sadly, got my $$ in at -6 so tis just a push, but salvation is salvation
HIPPO EXHALES?
“He may be your dog but he puts his bone in my backyard”
TEE HEE
THIS IS VERY VERY BAD
Block help?
I guess now is not the best time to tell you that Carolina won?
I am cursed LMAO
Mama Dok, praise be…because I don’t wanna be, without ye, for long.

garbage time has not been my friend the last 10 days
Pete Carroll – wants Hippo ded
don’t be so damned soft, damn it

You really need to come to Vegas.
Sunday morning sportsbooking would never be the same.
I just booked my trip!…January 5-8th. Still counts right?
We’ll leave evidence, I’m sure.
No, this is bad enough.
Lucille Bogan is my new favorite Lucille

here comes the 5-point fucking fuck
Hippo me thinks you are in trouble here.
There was stuff in the 20’s that wouldn’t make a radio edit today….like…not even close
I have not seen much of this game, but I don’t think Drew Stanton is the world’s greatest quarterback.
Kaep would be better, but I didn’t say that as I do not want to lose my NFL watching privileges.
Only on the mug he got for his birthday one year
Niters all, hopefully Dad will have everything better by Sunday. He also said he wouldn’t miss my piccolo recital last Wednesday and he was no where to be seen. DO YOU HAVE TO WORK LATE EVERY NIGHT?!?!?
If it was a piccolo recital, he heard you. Hell, I think I heard you.
Piccolo recital? Is that what you kids are calling it nowadays? You really shouldn’t ask people to watch that.
Drew Stanton…is really not good.
Hooray for innuendo!
7-minute FG drive, c’mon!!
89 TD
also acceptable
/just get off where garbage time score in final minute costs me $512 (well, double that since I would get my bet back too).
Yes. Yes it is. And there is derpage.
Full Birdcano mode now.
Do kids make Birdcanos for science fairs now?
Douggie B td please Charmslinger, I will buy a case of nanobubbles.
Now, don’t fuck up and allow no backdoor cover action. U noe dat backdoor is sinful, RW!!
So…you’re saying “Put it right here (or keep it out of there)” ??
Is this thing still going on?
My girlfriend asks me that all the time.
Hippo takes it back, Charmslinger. Much wolven love!!
Where have I seen this movie before….
hey, a well-executed run play!
Moose : yay or nay image?
Which Mission Impossible movie does that scene come from?
I haven’t had that much to drink yet, but this has affected me more then it should have.
29-10 would feel much, much better guys
ok, even 25-10
So, Betty Boop was like, 1930’s porn?
I do love me some pinup girls. Classy sexy.
Might be 2017 porn depending on what other material I have available.
come on, pickerception
He would not be standing if he tore his achilles tendon.
srsly
Dudes can stand on one leg
I know you are an md but somehow I dont trust your logic here Dok!
Oh, I am not that kind of doktor
Good thing they call me the human tripod!
/no one has called me the human tripod.
That Blindspot abortion is still a thing?
Just give Russ some nanobubbles and some chastity and he will be fine.
It’s like SEA knows I bet on them, and are laying the fuck down.
You aren’t good at this sports betting lark yet, are you?
Don’t think about the teams, think about the other bettors.
Always bet against Notre Dame, even if you haven’t watched college football ever.
I just want to get back reasonably close to even, so I can stop now. It’s embarrassing how bad I am at it.
So, you know how bookies (legal or illegal) make money, right? It’s all off the vig. They don’t need to know who’s gonna win or lose, they only need to know how people are gonna bet. The key to making money is to identify situations where the wisdom of crowds doesn’t hold and there’s an overlay (basically meaning an educated gambler can assess realistic odds that don’t match the offered odds due to the bias of people placing bets.) There frequently won’t be an overlay, or it’ll be small. Or the overlay will still be low odds to come in (for example, a horse is 1:200, but the gambler thinks real odds are more like 1:100). Then you make lots of bets where you have the statistical advantage and over time you make money. It’s hard, but not impossible to avoid getting emotionally involved in individual wins and losses. Volume can help. This is an interesting read about the qualitative aspects : https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00G2KE5SK/ref=dp-kindle-redirect?_encoding=UTF8&btkr=1
I do consider teh maths but not quite at that levels (same with poker which I am pretty good at, which makes this money losing endeavour extra frustrate).
Yeah, doing it the real quant way is actually a huge amount of work and (imo) not worth it. It might actually be harder for football b/c we actually follow the sport and know/care about individual outcomes. Hope you’re having fun at least 😀
In a nutshell, the house always wins?
my thing was going like 1-8 in my first 9 football bets. That would be nigh impossible if one were tossing darts.
Christmas is shit, wrapped in debt toilet paper.
It’s better if you just think of it as the winter solstice celebration. HOORAY THE SUN RETURNS SORTA!
The NFL concussion protocol is such a fucking joke.
10 second self exams now on the sidelines….okay…
10 second self exams? Did they substitute breast cancer self checks for the concussion protocol?
I can say this much. After numerous thorough self-examinations, I can confidently report that my penis does not currently suffer from breast cancer.
I mean…you know you are supposed to look for unusually hard bits right?
Define unusually…
I wish there was a like button.
FINE! We’ll put him in the tent you fucks!
*10 seconds later*
SEE! He’s fine!
‘How many fingers am I holding up?”
“I’M A PIRATE!”
“Close enough, get back out there!”
Grammatical, correct use of punctuation, he’s BETTER THAN FINE!
Hot Taek to end all hot taeks:
Pat Tillman likely suffered from CTE
Went from working for the Bidwell family to working for the Bush family…yep, I’d say your theory checks out.
so….no more likes on the site? I know i haven’t been home lately but….oof
Is there some sort of portmanteau for CTE and PTSD? CTSD?
Also, damn, that’s a depressing Veteran’s Day type thought.
I was teammates with a guy who took his own life after getting out of the marines.
Pisses me off that everyone I’ve talked to about it seems to think that he had either 1 disorder or the other, no combination of the two
It does seem like it would be a brutal bitch of a combo. And considering the lack of research on both conditions individually, I doubt they’ve even gotten to considering them together.
OH THE PAGINATION!
So….
Pete Carroll asks random women, “Can jet fuel melt steel beams?” Regardless of the answer, he then puts an Alex Jones mask on them as cranks it furiously.
I mean, what woman wouldn’t consent to THAT?
Well how else are you going to start a Model T to make your escape?
