Dallas Cowboys 2025 season thread: 8-9 and divine. The world according to Jerry
Somebody won a 5 week progressive on our pub's Dallas blackout square board last week. So the finale today w/ all squares full is only a hundred bucks. Can't remember a season when there's been less interest in the final game.

Justin Jefferson hot out the box as they work to get him to 1,000 yards. Dumbass McCarthy picks up the 1st down on the scramble then gets a taunting flag [emoji2959]

Things Not Going Well in Venezuela, 2.0
You mean the administration full of sycophants, grifters, Fox News castoffs & pedophile enablers doesn't give you confidence in their ability to rebuild the government & economy of a poor, fractured country? Do you even MAGA, bro?

I'm still amazed SF built such a derpy stadium. It looks like a 12 YO's first go at an erector set.

Fowler just said there's "SERIOUS urgency" now for Carolina. Is that like strenuously objecting?

The zebras sure as shit ain't doing Carolina any favors here. Very questionable OPI call just as they were getting some momentum.

"We're gonna be running it (Venezuela) as a group. We're gonna run it properly. We're gonna invest billions in the oil infrastructure." "We're not afraid of boots on the ground, we don't mind saying it. We're not afraid of running it properly." Just a word salad of bullshit.

This presser is unreal. "In the middle of the night. It was dark. The lights were turned off due to a certain expertise we have. It was dark." Dotard is slurring and snorting throughout this thing & can barely follow what's written down in front of him.

I'm Chevy Chase, And You're Not (documentary)
Good interview w/ the director Marina Zenovich. She's no lightweight, having done docs on Pryor, Robin Williams, Roman Polanski and mega-asshole Lance Armstrong. Here's a telling exchange from early on in the doc that really has my interest piqued: Now THAT'S the kind of intro that pulls you into a documentary. And I'm quite intrigued by how Chevy's mind must work. At 82, he knows he's sitting down to be interviewed about his life and the ups and downs of his career. The director is going to ask him about the events that shaped him & made his success possible. And his immediate response is to go into self-protection, lash out, insult, and not let anyone inside. He describes himself as an 'angry child' in an old man's body. The dude's carrying some heavy baggage. This is going to be quite the contrast to the recent doc "John Candy: I Like Me."

I'm Chevy Chase, And You're Not (documentary)
Bill Murray's career has eclipsed Chevy's by a wide margin. But if you're limiting their impact while at SNL then sure, Chevy as a key face during the birth of a cultural phenomenon certainly had a super nova effect during his brief stint. I'm looking forward to the doc. Chevy had talent, but his addictions & demons certainly sidetracked what should have been a longer lasting, more impacting career.

Karen of the Year
Karen claimed she had "lots" of houses, presumably paid for by all of her followers on TikTok. She's gotta have an OnlyFans account where she's showing pictures of her butthole (with and without Sharpies inserted). I expect by Monday we'll hear she's been let go from the Realty company she works for.

I'm Chevy Chase, And You're Not (documentary)
I never saw it--and it only aired once on Comedy Central--but the Friar's Club Roast of him in 2002 was apparently so brutal with the roasters going at him so viciously and personally they changed the format later. They tried to get friends and former co-stars to attend, but almost none of them did. Steve Martin and Martin Short sent video tributes (where they joked they couldn't be there because they were filming a sequel to the Three Amigos...without him). Al Franken and Laraine Newman did attend and went heavy on his drug addiction and anti-semitism. Franken: Newman: Stephen Colbert went off the top rope with this summary during the proceedings: Chevy was visibly upset & uncomfortable throughout the event, and reportedly broke down into a sobbing mess in the bar afterwards w/ Paul Shaffer.
