FULL CIRCLE FRIDAY-RED NATION

All the stories you know, and ones you don’t, but should. Welcome to FULL CIRCLE FRIDAY.

MONDAY
-The talk of the day was the National Championship game as Ohio State (fuck) throttled Oregon 42-20 in Arlington, Texas.

The loss didn't stop Ducks mascot Puddles from displaying the most offensive thing Oregon had going all night...

Duck breasts?  Who finds that sexy...I don't now any-

Oh....never mind.

-Meanwhile, in Columbus, students flooded the streets of Ohio State's campus only to have the celebrations broken up camouflage-clad police with tear gas and pepper spray because who doesn't want to gas Buckeye fans?

Guess it didn't have the desired effect on everyone.   This bro looks like he's ready for another hit of the dank shit.

TUESDAY
-The Denver Broncos and Coach John Fox mutually parted ways (fired) and afterwards, team vice-president/GM John Elway took the opportunity to thank himself...

"YEAH, I WANNA TAKE A MOMENT TO THANK MYSELF BECAUSE I PUT THIS SHIT TOGETHER!  ME!  NOT JOHN FOX!  ME!  IN FACT, CALL ME MOZILLA BECAUSE I JUST HAD TO FIRE FOX!  YOU SEE DEMARCUS WARE THIS YEAR?!  I DID THAT! JOHN ELWAY GOT BALLS LIKE AN EQUIPMENT CLOSET BABY!

-Mitchell Skiba is a defenseman for the Midwest Junior Hockey League's Apena Flyers.  Following an ejection for spearing an opponent, he decided to try to keep it a little too real on his way out and paid dearly for it...

Checked himself.  Wrecked himself.

WEDNESDAY

-The hell is wrong with Fish sticks?

I had no idea they had a negative connotation. I haven't had any since I was a kid but still!  Fish sticks are a staple of the American nine year-old's diet!  This slander is unacceptable.

-NASCAR or Tricycle, Jeff Gordon shows no mercy.

I think I got a challenger who will dust his ass though...

THURSDAY

-Kobe and LeBron took a night off from hating everyone and everything about their current teams to have fun playing Basketball and being old...

Twitter had some fun with it, fucking savages that they are...

But fuck all that shit right now...

But wait, there's more...

I love conference championship weekend man.  It's my last chance of the season to give a damn about  Football.

All I want to do Sunday is watch these games comfortably and yell at my TV while giving it the finger anytime a Papa John's commercial comes on.

Or when they show some enthusiastic fan geeked because their team is going to big game.  Fuck your happiness. 

Besides, the Super Bowl blows.

That's right, I said it, Super Bowl Sunday is awful.  It's a sideshow.

It's as much as about what's on the giant party sub you're buying as it is the game.

It's as much about critiquing Katy Perry's halftime performance outfit as it is Russell Wilson's passer rating.

It's as much about wishing you were home watching the game solo instead of cramped on a couch with 20 jagoffs as it is the final score.

I'm looking forward to all of it.

FRIDAY

-The NHL is breaking out these jerseys for their All-Star game in Columbus, Ohio next weekend...

Seriously, you gotta wonder if commissioner Gary Bettman  really wants people to watch his product?  Your all-star game is in fucking Ohio and now this?

WEEKEND WATCH!

What you should be doing this weekend if you know, you’re not drunk or doing something better…

WATCH THE CONFERENCE CHAMPIONSHIPS!
Seahawks-Patriots is going to happen.  It is written.  Don't try to fight it.

SEE AMERICAN SNIPER!
Chris Kyle is probably a fraud (yeah get angry) but hey, the movie should be good!

SEE BLACKHAT!
In a matter of weeks, this movie starting Thor went from slick, dramatic Michael Mann-directed thriller to action flick with a hip-hop laced trailer. Boo to them on that!

FRIDAY SHOUT-OUT!

Recognizing whomever the hell I want!

\

Shout-out to Orlando Magic Center Nikola Vucevic!  You can't do that to Pau Gasol man!  He's a legend!  Put him on the ground and shit.

Enjoy the games this weekend, eat some brunch or something.  Brunch is good!  My mama wanted people to show me some respect.
