Happy 22, 16! Open Thread
You snooze you lose. I will now bask in the warm glow of being the Creator of the Open Thread, and cordially accept all the benefits that come with said position.
B1G Games:
UAB at (16) Ohio State
CMU at Iowa
UTEP at Wisconsin
Games of Interest:
Virginia at (17) TCU
Maryland at (8) WVU
Not the biggest smorgasbord of early games, but I'd do anything for a few primers until 8pm...

...commence basking. Why not go ahead and start the one for next week, too? Super bowl?
September 22nd, 2012 at 9:33 AM ^
Your vitriol is spilling over this week, ND Sux. As you request:
Super Bowl XLXI -
February 5, 2017
Los Angeles Browns at New England Patriots
Key storylines:
Brady attempting to get his 8th Super Bowl ring.
Browns seemingly have advantage due to new 'two hand touch' player safety rule which was implemented at the beginning of the season.
. Commence .
September 22nd, 2012 at 9:55 AM ^
LA Browns made me giggle.

By that time, Zoltan has purchased the franchise and moved them to the moon. That was a typo. It's supposed to be New New England Patriots. Also, due to the lower gravity, Zoltan is no longer eligible to punt for any NFL team, as they lose too many footballs.
September 22nd, 2012 at 10:39 AM ^
Did the Browns move to the NFC?
(I want more of this elaborate story)

In his old age, Jerry Jones channeled his inner Al "Plastic Pants" Davis and demanded to be in the Amurican Footbaw Conference, since he still bought into the fact that they were America's Team.
Cleveland Browns owner, (and former minority owner of the Steelers) Jimmy Haslam, took this as an opportunity to troll the Browns fans, and moved the team to LA. His rationale was "Who in their right mind would stay in Cleveland?"
That's pretty much it.

I will chain myself to their stadium and go on a hunger strike until the deal is cancelled or I die from exposure.

A sign supposedly seen in the GameDay crowd already forming in Tallahassee: "Not Sure If Serious Or Just Clemson Football". Nice. I hope to see this one live later, if they show it.
September 22nd, 2012 at 9:28 AM ^
I saw that sign when SportsCenter had Kirk on for a few questions. They used the Fry from Futurama meme. Pretty funny.
September 22nd, 2012 at 10:40 AM ^
You mean this?
So great.
September 22nd, 2012 at 9:24 AM ^
You've earned many valuable Soviet era bank notes.

...to the west coast.
To the OP: I graciously allowed you to start the early games open thread. No need to send a thank-you card; your glowing admiration is enough for me
September 22nd, 2012 at 9:29 AM ^
It does, if you live on west coast. I'd strongly consider moving.

This thread will never be irrelevant, so long as everyone involved is honest with themselves and open with their true feelings on this cold Saturday morning. It feels, to me at least, that you are holding back. This is a place of healing. Do not be afraid to share.

I have never heard him say anything other than negative things about Michigan, which seems a bit odd since he's a Georgia guy.

Surely you are mistaken. I know not what you mean.

and loves to watch ND. She hates them as I do, but she's hoping to bear witness to the inevitable head explosion.
Lady ND Sux = awesomeness
September 22nd, 2012 at 10:34 AM ^
tell her to swing by my place and I will give her an inevitable head explosion.
booyah!
September 22nd, 2012 at 10:57 AM ^
wow that's clever
September 22nd, 2012 at 10:13 AM ^
Hey OP, why don't you start a Happy Birthday Denard thread?
September 22nd, 2012 at 10:19 AM ^
Umm... I already did. That's the name of this thread.
September 22nd, 2012 at 10:35 AM ^
He's only little older than me. Puts things in perspective.
September 22nd, 2012 at 10:48 AM ^
I'll be 28 for the Nebraska game. You shut your dirty mouth, you haven't even been able to drink at bars for a full year. Thanks for making me add Metamucil to my wife's shopping list.
September 22nd, 2012 at 11:51 AM ^
You are definately on a roll this morning.
September 22nd, 2012 at 10:48 AM ^

I find it a little ridiculous that Florida State hasn't sold out a game since they played Oklahoma last year.
September 22nd, 2012 at 11:04 AM ^
Happy Birthday Denard!

It's Denard's birthday and nobody has posted this yet?

"The only good player"
Fuck you Corso
September 22nd, 2012 at 11:35 AM ^
get put into a home sometime soon? I know this is something idiots often say, but kids from California, Texas and the south are not faster.
Using this logic, we should only recruit tall, skinny Jamacian nationals. Then we could totally run on everyone!
