Last Call is kind of like Blogkakke only on LSD, PCP and ludes. Fucking ludes man. Instead of just being a random link dump its a place to come hang out with like minded sports fans, alcoholics and amateur comedians. Stop by and tell us a joke, bitch about your local sports team, or just spout off about your time as a back alley abortionist in The Vatican.
Hey look at this. We’re doing this a second night in a row. Weed’s on vacation so the opportunity was passed on to us. Mind the ficus, gimp has gotten even more territorial lately.
Musical Interlude:
Linkage:
The Phoenix Pub: A look back at the year of deconstruction.
Purple Jesus Diaries: PJD presents his recap of the week 16 game. As always, it’s a great read.
KSK: The NFL’s playoff scenarios are complex and unkowable to all but the brilliant minds at KSK.
With Leather: Punter thinks that the NFL should fine the Colts. As a Colts fan I think they should go a step further and take away a draft pick. Good read anyways.
Midwest Sports Fans: The guys at MSF think the Colts fans are assholes and should shut the fuck up because we don’t cheer for the Browns. If you need me, I’ll be in the corner crying. Or masterbating.
Dr. Saturday: Holly previews the Miami Wisconsin game. Holly is rapidly rising in my internal blogger rankings if that means anythinbg to you.

I am always territorial!!!
good thing I didn’t put the chowdah out
What is this? I fear change.
You’re a pirate, you fear nothing. Well except maybe taking showers and going to the dentist.
Yarr tis a flesh wound. The good lord blessed me with two! Wharrs the rum matey, there’s some rapin’ to be done!
Ewwww, GIMP! At least have the decency to AIM, okay? There’s a big wet spot on the floor next to the Ficus. Gally, move the damn thing away from the door, would ya? And pass the papertowels.
Oh, I thought the ficus would soak all that stuff up. Isn’t that how osmosis works?? I’m going to go back to turning off my brain and working on my 20lb Christmas weight gain.
Hello darlings. How’s everyone’s balls tonight?
If I had any they’d have frozen off by now. Judas Priest, it’s fucking COLD out there.
Indeed it is. Witches tits and all that rot.
freshly showered thank you very much.
Okay, since that didn’t work…click HERE to find out the status of my balls and laugh hysterically.
You now owe me another beer. Fortunately, the laptop is fine.
God damn, I don’t understand why youse folks cant embed videos. All it should take is pasting in the youtube embed code…..
Which is what I did. I dunno brother, as long as my genius can be shared with everyone somehow, it’ll be okay.
So many retorts…
my mindgears have seized…
system overload…
out of cheese error + + +
one day I’ll figure out these internets
Oh good CHRIST, look at Craig Sager! Yipes!
I think I hear Fuse crying…
Mike Leach’s attorney may want to consider a non-attorney actor spokesperson. Good lord.
sounds, uh, hilarious and mockery-worthy. what’d he say?
I’m not sure I understood much of it. I think he tried to tell me that Mike Leach is actually a Saint in football coaches clothing. It was mostly incomprehensible, though.
Ah. Meaning that even had the Tower of Babel not fallen, we’d STILL not understand him?
That’s absolutely the case.
John Wall is..pretty good.
I went to the bank yesterday to deposit a check. While in line, I noticed the teller seemed attractive. She had a decent figure on her, along with the kind of stylish glasses and all that. Imagine my dismay when I got to the window and she had the worst crossed eye you’ve ever seen. Jesus Christ, she said hello to me and I thought she was talking to the guy next to me.
Still…you know…
two (compound) words for you: “eye patch” and “pirate sex”"
Oh, I know. Were I a single man, I would have made a substantial deposit in her vault.
I’d also have banged that eye straight.
well, there’s penalties for early withdrawal, but i’m wondering about her T-Bills, and more importantly, the status of her Bonds.
Luckily for her, I’m 31. She needn’t worry about me wanting to make more than three transactions at a time. Much like John Wall, I’m one and done these days.
As long as it’s in a Safety Deposit Box…we don’t need teeny tellers running about.
Please just watch out for the damn dye pack.
If it’s black dye, is that considered a kind of PED?
So… anything good on TV tonight.
/changed all my “Fuck the Bears” signs into “Fuck the Canes” signs just like that!
Nice to see Jacory Harris is up to his old tricks. Fuck.
Damn, all this Christmas eating is getting to me…
Just catching up on the whole Leach brew-ha-ha. I could totally see Craig James as a little league dad.
YAR!!!
Is that a roll of half dollars in yo pocket, or are you happy ta see me?
Oh, I know this one! Ahem…
“Is it twoo what zey say about you people? Zat you’re…gifted?”
ZIP…
“Oh, it’s twoo, it’s twoo!”
Please baby, 15 schnitzengruben is my limit!
Next time you’re up for a contract, you need to somehow work in “‘Scuse me while I whip this out…”
have to add: O Lord, do we have the strength to carry off this mighty task in one night? Or are we just jerking off?
I like how the ESPN story says that Leach anticipates that Tech will “try” to fire him.
Tech AD: Coach, you’re fired.
Leach: I don’t think so!!! YAR!!!
YAR!! I be the captain of this ship and I’ll be having no mutiny.
PJD sure had a rough night it looks like. That was quite the post.
haha, yeah quite the epic I’m at work and I’m going to vent now instead of doing real work type deal.
There is a good chance that Miami may come back and win this game. There’s the disclaimer.
But I am NOT impressed at all by this Hurricanes team, nor Randy Shannon.
I never realized that Randy Shannon was the dude who delivered the cheques to the Miami players until I watched the ‘U’… here I thought that he was a good dude – especially after Musberger’s story about all the bad shit that has happened to people around him and the current lack of arrests on the Miami team and his stance on what would happen to players who did get into trouble.
I guess if you’re trying to rise in college football, however, you do what you’re told.
Yes it’s the U, but instead of being talented and undisciplined, they’re just wild and undisciplined.
I’d forgotten the Shannon part on “The U”… I guess that’s important to remember too, when looking at this team.
well I’m not sure, I only was half paying attention, but it was near the end and I heard Randy Shannon and something about delivering the money.
I actually wish him well – it’d be cool to see him show that black coaches can win too.
But not in this game. I’m cheering for the Big eleven all the way – expecting a bowl turn around this season from last year’s disaster (although if Ohio State had not been selected for the Fiesta Bowl (and BSU was instead), then I would have expected the conference as a whole to have won much more games since they would have more favourable match-ups down the line.
It was Shannon. I had forgotten that part until you mentioned it above.
Blackledge with a GREAT point RE: The Weather in Orlando bothering Miami and not the Badgers. 50 degrees would be a freaking GODSEND right now in Madison.
Kabul 1969 via. Roger Ebert
Same image, 2009.
Well, the before picture is MIA. But either way, it doesn’t thrill me – a friend just got deployed to Kabul (and I didn’t know he was still active military – I thought he’d gotten his papers and joined us civvies.
Follow Roger Ebert on Twitter. You will NOT be disappointed.
Duly stalked.
So… I kinda killed a kitten on Christmas morning.
I turned on a piece of machinery, not realizing that the kitten was playing in the gears, and the result was smushed kitten.
Hoping for a better 2010 (crosses fingers)
Meh, they’re like bugs. Nature always makes more.
You do realize I’m kidding, right?
I didn’t realize that. My brother was making kitten killer jokes all morning.
As he should. He’s your brother.
Whose kitten was it?
It was a barn kitten. There were four in that litter. There are 4 or 5 from the earlier litter. Some of them have names.
Oof. Sorry to hear that. Anybody scream/cry when it happened?
Well it was at the barn. My dad was just sad it happened on Christmas morning. At least this one was killed outright. I hardly ever turn on the machine (we run it every day), but I killed one in it last year as well (and I finished the job on that one).
@Sculptor!?! – By not realizing that you’re kidding, I thought that you were making a serious ‘meh’ because nature always does make more.
I have no emotional attachment to the kittens, but I do give them bits of milk or make sure that they aren’t left in the top of the barn when we close the doors to keep the heat in (as in I’m not trying to harm them).
Of course, love – I’d never purposely harm a critter (bugs aside). And i realize that droll humour doesn’t necessarily translate across teh intarwebs.
but next time run some birds through it. then you can have shredded tweet.
Watching 20/20′s “The Real Blind Side” – is Collins Tuohy the type of girl I missed seeing in large numbers by failing to go to college down South?
If SEC cheerleaders are any indication then… yes.
I think Collins actually was an Ole Miss cheerleader.
Maybe. I’m sure she’s destined to marry a cousin or something, so… yeah….
I dunno. I’m watching Ferris Bueller for about the 200th time.
It’s Time for Citrus Bowl Trivia!!!
I’ve been drunk as FUCK, MANY TIMES, at the Citrus Bowl.
That Was Citrus Bowl Trivia!!!
I miss the Citrus, Tangerine, & Peach bowls. I liked my bowl games in various Lifesaver flavours.
This Tolzein really seems to be the anti-Rivers with his passes. He certainly likes the frozen ropes.
He is the ultimate “Won’t Kill You” QB… he doesn’t have that god awful, but loveable delivery that Rivers has… maybe more of what Cooper Manning would have been at QB?
Too easy. Too damn easy
I agree. And I actually meant the stadium itself, it’s called the Citrus Bowl.
PS.
For a supposedly talented team, Miami plays like a bunch of pussies.
I never knew that. I remember the Peach bowl from before I followed CFB. Is that now the chick-fil-a? They should keep the old fruit flavours – kinda like whatever field @ mile high.
Oh man… there was the Tangerine, Peach, Citrus, Orange… then of course the Hall of Fame Bowl, Copper Bowl, Blue Bonnett Bowl…
It was awesome. And like 10 games on New Year’s Day. Those were teh days.
Yeah, the name of the stadium in Orlando is the Citrus Bowl. The bowl games held there used to be named the Citrus Bowl and Tangerine Bowl. They’re now the Capital One Bowl and Champ Sports Bowl.
The Peach Bowl became the Chick Fil-A Peach Bowl and then the Chick Fil-A Bowl. It used to be held at Atlanta Fulton County Stadium and moved to the Georgia Dome when that opened.
Outback Bowl was the Hall of Fame Bowl, right?
You all forgot Ty-D Bowl. Did that little dude ever escape?
Tolzein’s carving them up.
Okay, so I’m watching a hockey game online at the moment…Syracuse vs. Texas, in Texas. Should someone inform the Texas organization that an on-ice ad for a company called HEB might be considered anti-semetic in some circles?
Hockey in Texas? That’s blasphemy I tells ya.
That cheapass fucking goal Texas just scored should be sponsored by HEB, whatever it is that they do or make. Fuck.
Jump Around? Ok. Jump Around.
There’s a case of trying to do too much.
Just can’t put them away.

Thanks. That stuff is good to know. Now I can be that guy who refuses to change with the times and insists on calling things by their proper names. Like the Skydome (now called the ‘Rogers Centre’ after one of our 3 cable TV providers).
apparently I failed at quoting two different conversations.
Also, I never realized that A & M lost so badly last night. I was kinda hoping that their defence would continue to play lights out.
I do that all the time, Still refer to Citrus and Peach Bowl(s), anyway. Also, for whatever reason, it’s still the USF&G Sugar Bowl…
I don’t know.
I <3 Chris Borland.
@ Sculptor!?! – We just put some big fans in the barn. Hopefully we don’t have too much shredded tweet once we start using them in the summer.
And I suppose I took it as more of a black humour rather than droll. So I think we’re on the same page from that.
or perhaps reading from the same book is more apt.
Heh, yeah, the one with lots of pages stuck together. Ahem.
Yeah sorry about that. I become excited easily.
Hahaha, you haven’t seen my copy. Just sayin’.
haha, wow
I wish I got some of that football up here. I don’t get any until the BCS type games….
A few days I complained about the World Junior Hockey Championships. Case in point: Canada’s wins have been 16-0 (Latvia), 6-0 (Switzerland), 8-2 (Slovakia). If one team dominates others by that much, I have trouble thinking that the tournament is legitimate. It’s probably worse than high-school football for competitive balance.
Yeah, well the games against Russia, Sweeden and the US will be different. Those games will be lot closer. Plus Canada’s players and coaching are as strong or stronger than they ever been.
Yeah Rob, we’re talking Canadian Hockey here. We may or may not even bee wearing Canadian Tuxedos…
I enjoy hockey.
I hate Candians. (Except Skeets. But he’s from Toronto, so…)
But, really, junior hockey? That’s so cute.
//watches College Football
I saw Skeets on our third sports channel a couple days ago, which is cool because it’s actually my favourite of the bunch. The channel is like “Sports Night” because the people are legitimately funny and can say almost whatever they want since so few people watch.
what show is that? Perhaps I get it but don’t know bout it.
I’m going to guess Score Tonight with Sid and Tim. Do I win a prize?
haha. By the way, Toronto sucks…
/sorry Semper
I’m actually from just outside of the GTA (so our taxes are way lower for that reason, although they’re shooting up of late). I hardly ever go to the city and have very little love for it.
I really need to keep track of all the Habs.
There’s Bucholtz in Vancuver, right?
Skeets in Toronto
Gally in ???
Who else in the community?
Spud too.
GTA = Greater Toronto Area.
I think Marley Jayhawk’s going to uni near Toronto, but I’m not sure.
I’ll let Jayhawk know you associate him with TO. I expect either tear-inducing laughter or multiple f-bombs. Or both.
I’m Edmonton, Jayhawk and Bucholtz is Vancouver, Skeets and Food Court Lunch are all Toronto. Danny Heatly Speedwagon is Ottawa? and there’s a few more of us, but I’m not sure.
Bucholtz is from Vancouver but goes to Queen’s as I recall. That means I can say he fucks sheep, right?
yeah that is correct. Where bouts you reside?
Van City, though I’m originally from (just outside) the centre of the universe. There’s nothing more fun than wearing an Argos jersey to a CFL game in western Canada.
So you’re saying you don’t buy into the “goal-differential matters” argument?
Go for it, and drive the Ray Lewis Memorial Dagger into the Canes.
I’m not a doctor, but how different is 17-7 from 20-7? I guess it’s two touchdowns vs. touchdown & fieldgoal, but 2 touchdowns and you lose.
Well, the 2 TDs is the key. Makes the team have to drive the length of the field 2x.
But, going for it and making it there would have been huge, and even NOT making it leaves Miami in poor field position.
I guess that’s what I was thinking – you make it and you kill the game.
I guess he’s careful about the field position – both times they were pinned deep they had big breakout plays, effectively negating the excellent punts.
Good point.
Ok… getting a bit nervous again.
Not anymore, right?
No, though I did have some cross words for Jay Valai when he didn’t make that INT. But we made up.
God, fucking, dammit that was a good game (not really).
But man, I enjoyed it anyway.
Alright, I’m calling it for the evening. I’ll probably be back on New Year’s Eve. There are transportation issues (not enough vehicles) & driving on New Year’s Eve isn’t the safest thing & I’m working early New Year’s day that are leading me towards at least 3 years sitting at home on New Year’s.
Don’t feel bad. I hate going out on New Year’s Eve now. I’d much rather get to bed early and get the sleep I missed the rest of the week.
I don’t go out either. Too many drunks on the road in NJ. I can stay at home where it’s warm and dry, and drink for a fraction of the cost of some of those “parties”.
Hey – at least the Big Ten won’t fall completely on its face, right?
Glad that you got the triple of Packers win, Vikings loss, and a bowl win.
It was just a short on The Score (I think). I don’t know what the show was, but they had Skeets and one of Skeets’s buddies doing something. I wasn’t really paying attention since it was basketball. Could have been a comical interview. That station likes having its people do that.
It was actually a ‘real’ Christmas show that Skeets had. His blog has the link to it.
Yeah, Skeets also works for the Score now, and they play some of the podcasts online and link to him on the website
uum, maybe Skeets has his own show now.

The first link is the channel’s link. Skeets’s website says tell the network you want to see more of him.
