LC Thread 2020: What the PUNK? ROCK.

Any free way to watch this shit in the US?

At this point I basically just assume any famous comic from the 90’s is now a snowflake who whines about safe spaces because college students don’t them funny anymore. With Larry The Cable Guy and Jeff Foxworthy and the rest of the faux rednecks, you know they’re almost a lock to be MAGA chuds.As someone who grew up watching Comedy Central in the 90’s, this is a bit depressing for me. At least the MST3k guys haven’t turned.

Man, it’s not even just the 90’s comedians, look at how Ricky Gervais and Louie C.K. turned out to be epic shitlords.

It was on FS1/FS2 for a while as US sports wound down.

No idea. I know there are channels carry it but idk about free, they’re cable I assume?

You can get a month of WatchAFL for $US 27, it’s like NFL Gamepass, every game streamed live or on demand.

I haven’t watched any of it yet but they’re piping in fake crowd noise apparently. The games are either in front of no crowds or very limited crowds. What do you guys call a “local derby”, you know, like Giants v Jets or Chargers v Rams? Anyway, we have one of those here in Adelaide tomorrow, they’re usually very easy sellouts, and there were 2,000 tickets on sale for a 53,000 seat stadium.

Damn I love AFL. Might get the app and start waking up early.

Rowan Atkinson and John Cleese hardly covering themselves in glory either. Comedy arseholes are multi-generational.

Not really much of anything. Both of those examples are teams in different conferences, so they only play each other once every 4 years.

The closest thing you’re describing would be in college football and would be called a “rivalry”, usually with some special name or trophy attached to it, like The Iron Bowl (Alabama-Auburn) or The Apple Cup (Washington-Washington State). These are usually, but not necessarily, geographically close schools.

A DJ and MC from the glory days of clubbing in Adelaide are doing a live stream. Takes me back.

In baseball you’ve got the “subway series” with Yankees/Mets but that’s not really a rivalry because lolMets.

Anyone know for sure about Jeff Foxworthy? I always kind of liked that guy and hope he’s not a full on deplorable.

All wiki says about his political positions is that he endorsed Romney in 2012. Also, some redneck. Born in Atlanta and his dad was an IBM executive.

When I first saw that truck I thought he just tossed the BLM cardboard up so he wouldn’t get his car flipped over.

Here in the States we refer to these derbies as “crosstown rivalries.”

With all the great Aussie nicknames and slang, it’s rather disappointing that this is the best they could come up with.

It’s Brit, not Aussie, might explain it.

And we pronounce it “Darby”

If it helps, in the A-League (soccer) the original Melbourne and Sydney teams both wear blue uniforms (dark blue and sky blue respectively) and the periodic match between them is referred to as “the Big Blue”.
