Your “Now, Let’s Not Get Too Bitchy, Fellas” Wednesday Evening Open Thread

NFL Notes:

  • And it begins: Cowboys vice president of player personnel Will McClay gave his opinion on why the Cowboys released Dez Bryant, which will definitely never come back to haunt him:
    • “The (inability) to win one-on-one, to win downfield. There was inconsistency as well as some huge things in his play.”
      • “It’s a production-based business.”
    • Also a factor: he counted as $16 million against the cap for 2018 if he stayed on the roster.
      • Cutting him saved $12.5 million – his contract was pro-rated from the March bonus period.
      • Hauling water for someone, Adam Schefter ‘reports’ that many teams won’t even sign Dez for the League minimum.
  • Dreamboat says Gisele has given him permission to play for at least two more years.
    • He laments not being enough of a stay-at-home dad, which he could actually fucking be at any time if he just hung up the cleats.
  • Believing collusion is at hand, Eric Reid has initiated his own collusion case against the NFL.
    • He believes, like Colin Kaepernick, that owners are conspiring to prevent him from obtaining employment due to his political beliefs.
      • He has also contracted Kaep’s lawyer, Mark Geragos.
        • Geragos is most famous for representing Michael Jackson & Scott Peterson, and got Chris Brown probation for smacking Karrueche Tran.

   

  • The League is working on changes to the ejection language for targeted hits.
    • They are looking to add a replay review, but the owners have to approve it.
    • Examples used to highlight the rule change from the 2017 season are these plays from 2017:
      • Bears linebacker Danny Trevathan‘s on Packers receiver Davante Adams, and
      • Bengals safety George Iloka‘s hit on Steelers receiver Antonio Brown.

   


Tonight’s sports:

  • NHL:
    • Lightning at Bruins – 7:00PM | NBCSN / CBC (Game 3; series tied 1-1)
    • Vegas at Sharks – 10:00PM | NBCSN / Sportsnet (Game 4; Vegas leads 2-1)
  • NBA:
    • Jazz at Rockets – 8:00PM | TNT / TSN
  • MLB:
    • Yankees at Astros – 8:00PM | ESPN / TSN2

I wish I knew how the owners thought about all these allegations against them.

NOT GUILTY AT ALL!

So, uh … It turns out the Redacteds are even worse than I could imagine. That’s an impressive feat.

The Washington Slurs took their cheer squad to Costa Rica for a topless/nude photoshoot, confiscated their passports so they couldn't leave and INVITED A BUNCH OF MEN WHO HOLD BOXES AT FED-EX field to ogle without informing the women.

“So get back to your room and get ready,” the director told them. Several of them began to cry.

“They weren’t putting a gun to our heads, but it was mandatory for us to go,” one of the cheerleaders said. “We weren’t asked, we were told. Other girls were devastated because we knew exactly what she was doing.”

Their participation did not involve sex, the cheerleaders said, but they felt as if the arrangement amounted to “pimping us out.”

Burn it all down.

That article kept getting more depressing. On a related note, my money is on Jerral to be the first owner caught for pimping out the cheerleaders.

Brick, are these your shots?

If it’s an obvious no, forgive me, I’m literally feverish at the moment.

No, none of the shots i posted are mine. I was just sort of creating a gallery, I dunno. I was curating while stoned (actually just buzzed nicely).

These car photos here are from a guy on Flickr named Ron Pinkerton and he lives out in the Mojave and this picture technique is called light painting. He has some amazing images and I am in awe of his work. You should check out his site:
