Hello sports fans! I'm watching ESPN-MNF. I anticipate a lopsided game.

Hello sports fans! I'm watching ESPN-MNF. I anticipate a lopsided game.

Who's playing tonight? We record and then fast forward through the commercials.

teh bears... and the vikings.

Go team, yay sports!

 

[The New Holliday]

Oh, allow me to crow - My NovaCats are in at #18 (with a bullet) in the new AP rankings.
..plus - Giantards win second straight - WHOA !.

..and further to that, my Lucy is leading LadyCats to a 4-1 record so far. One of the nation's top scorers,
but I think she may have a gf and not be available at the moment.

With a dvr you can just pause the feed for 10 or so minutes, then ff commercials, and be on only a slight time delay

I could do that, but I prefer watching live and use the commercial time to do other very important things. It's how this sports fan rolls. ;)

True. We tend to watch at our convenience now. Right now, I'm working on dinner and desert.

Of course when you're a Giants fan, the commercials are often the best part of the broadcast.

..like powder your muffin one imagines?

PS: I'm sorry - I didn't mean to write that.

If you must know, and I know you must, I have a premade meal to nuke that takes precisely 2min30secs and the beer is all lined up and cold. It's all meticulously planned.

On Turning her up in her Nest, with the Plough, November 1785.

Wee, sleeket, cowran, tim’rous beastie,
O, what a panic’s in thy breastie!
Thou need na start awa sae hasty,
Wi’ bickerin brattle!
I wad be laith to rin an’ chase thee
Wi’ murd’ring pattle!

I’m truly sorry Man’s dominion
Has broken Nature’s social union,
An’ justifies that ill opinion,
Which makes thee startle,
At me, thy poor, earth-born companion,
An’ fellow-mortal!

I doubt na, whyles, but thou may thieve;
What then? poor beastie, thou maun live!
A daimen-icker in a thrave
’S a sma’ request:
I’ll get a blessin wi’ the lave,
An’ never miss ’t!

Thy wee-bit housie, too, in ruin!
It’s silly wa’s the win’s are strewin!
An’ naething, now, to big a new ane,
O’ foggage green!
An’ bleak December’s winds ensuin,
Baith snell an’ keen!

Thou saw the fields laid bare an’ waste,
An’ weary Winter comin fast,
An’ cozie here, beneath the blast,
Thou thought to dwell,
Till crash! the cruel coulter past
Out thro’ thy cell.

That wee-bit heap o’ leaves an’ stibble
Has cost thee monie a weary nibble!
Now thou’s turn’d out, for a’ thy trouble,
But house or hald,
To thole the Winter’s sleety dribble,
An’ cranreuch cauld!

But Mousie, thou art no thy-lane,
In proving foresight may be vain:
The best laid schemes o’ Mice an’ Men
Gang aft agley,
An’ lea’e us nought but grief an’ pain,
For promis’d joy!

Still, thou art blest, compar’d wi’ me!
The present only toucheth thee:
But Och! I backward cast my e’e,
On prospects drear!
An’ forward tho’ I canna see,
I guess an’ fear!

What a dismal game that was. :,(

This is the way week 12 ends, not with a bang but a whimper.

Bit of a rough start.

I think the Vegas mob got to the running back room. Sadly.

That's okay - nowhere to go but up now.

Not looking to good for the Ducks.

Faith in god's plan restored, for now.
