1pm Open Thread: Stu Scott Shows How to Keep One Eye on the Game
Giants-Redskins highlights the early slate. Plaxico Burress was already out of the game with a hamstring injury, but expect lots of talk about his accidental shooting. Some have already started speculating about possible legal consequences for Plax if he is found to have possessed a handgun illegally. But knowing what a stickler for the rules Plax is, we aren’t too worried about it. Also, Brandon Jacobs will be back in the lineup this week, after screwing a million fantasy teams last Sunday when he was a last-minute scratch. (Not that I’m still bitter or anything.)
Tampa Bay and New Orleans is the only other sexy match up among the early games. Elsewhere, the Panthers bring their smoke-and-mirrors show to Green Bay. The Bills and 49ers will be playing to determine once and for all who has to claim OJ Simpson. The resurgent Colts will be tuning up the ass-kicking machine in Cleveland. Regional viewers will have to sit through the Dolphins-Rams and Ravens-Bengals. You have my sympathies.

He didn’t know it was loaded, but Amani Toomer did.

This is the first time we’ve ever had consecutive flubby posts. Did something happen to the others that you’re not telling us?

stuart scott has hoes in different area codes… old, haggard hoes…
also, @ futuremrs: no need to resist, something tells me he’s not pulling any punches.

Cheering for Giants and Steerers today. Hate the skins and pats…
Does that make me a bad fan or should I keep the Haterade flowing?
November 30th, 2008 at 1:39 pm
@j4b
That’s what I’m doing…partly because I’m a Steerers fan and partly because I want another shot at the Giants in SB43. Oh, and partly because I hope Matt Cassel gets disemboweled with a rusty butter knife after the game.
November 30th, 2008 at 1:39 pm
j4b, as a Pats fan, I say, keep the hate flowing. hate tears taste the sweetest.
and speaking of hate tears, Gary Brackett going off on the cart. that’s too bad.
November 30th, 2008 at 1:44 pm
j4b: Hate all four of those teams but my rooting interests run same as yours.
Haterade > nug nut (fucking MkDonolds)

Hot women aside, the Cadillac reindeer ad might the most annoying one going now.
Haterade flows like Victoria Falls today.

“Five dollar foot long’ aint no ‘Saved by Z…’ but it’s an anoying fucking tune!

Even as a Giants fan, I must ask this: Yes, Coughlin has a great challenge record, but is it really that significant? The only thing he doesn’t do is challenge completely retarded fucking plays like other coaches [eh hem Andy Reid on back to back plays circa 3 weeks ago].
/stop licking Coughlin’s balls Moose.

My favre meter was pegged while watching the Pack game…
GB fans miss the warrior.

Dear Winslow:
Your soldierdom is in question if you don’t get back in this game. Your 15 yards will not do.
November 30th, 2008 at 2:46 pm
Great job, Phil Dawson. Don’t you know we want the recently gloating Colts fans to be humbled?
November 30th, 2008 at 2:50 pm
Ape, I think 88 yards passing for Manning so far with an INT and a fumble is a nice start.
November 30th, 2008 at 2:52 pm
Can the Redskins’ corners get pass interference calls if they’re interfering with one another?
November 30th, 2008 at 2:58 pm
Now that’s the Jason David I remember. Seeing him not getting torched seemed so unnatural
November 30th, 2008 at 3:13 pm
Can we get a update on trent edwards, is he out?
November 30th, 2008 at 3:13 pm
Ape, your ongoing war with a certain lady Colts fan who frequents this site amuses me to no end. When will you kids just admit your feelings for each other?
I’m dying to drink this tasty winter brew I got. Start the game already!

Freeney will make the Pro Bowl on that play. Which might be his first positive play in weeks.

Why is Goose giving advice on which places are safe and which aren’t? Last time I checked, his favorite diner is a frequent mob hangout.

I see no problem with the blonde.
