Today is all about (the) Future

You could say that about most days. Most of our days are spent setting things up for the future. This is certainly the case when the day in question features the NFL Draft. Wait, no, I'm not talking about THE future. I'm talking about Future aka Nadayvius D. Wilburn, the Atlanta based rapper.  I'd be shocked if most of our G:TB regulars have heard or or heard from Future. In fact, I'm betting most conversations about Future would look something like this:


That all changes today though. Future dropped a new album recently and while I'm not a huge fan of his music, the lead single is top notch. It's catchy, has a great track and features a cameo from none other than Andre 3000. Not surprisingly, 3000 kills it on his cameo and nearly makes you forget about Future altogether. I think you'll fin this puts a hop in your step on this Friday morning. Enjoy.

Music from the Future? My God, it had better be smooth.

rob said...

can't imagine it's a good thing when 'chortles' is a perfect rhyme with your quarterback's name.

Dave said...

is "future music" when you're going to have to face the music sometime in the future? or is it electronica?

rob said...

again, fuck if i know. the brits talk funny. they'll say, 'that's not in my remit', when they mean, 'that's not my job'. or, 'he's got strong commerciality', when they mean, 'he's a good businessman'. or, 'cheers', even when they're not talking about sam malone. weirdos, man.

Greg said...

And to the brits, everything is "brilliant" (or "bru-yent" in the north).

Wanna get a beer? ---Brilliant.

I'm going to work---Brilliant.

The cancer is terminal---Brilliant

zman said...

Maybe future music is the music they play right before a "flash-forward" scene in a movie?

zman said...

Whilst in London earlier this week, I rode in various estates and saloons that burned diesel, not petrol. I got my wife a jumper.

Greg said...

That's brilliant Zed-Man

Greg said...

if blake bortles is ever busted for a DUI, the headline could read "BLAKE BOTTLES"

Mark said...

But did you have a fag on the lift?

By the way, I'm on holiday today.

Mark said...

And if he wins a Super Bowl, the headline can read "Popping Bortles".

I'll never forget when Jerry showed me the business card of one "Peter A. Bortz" for the first time.

Danimal said...

My session at tpc has commenced. Lovely

Mark said...

Danimal is getting high on the course? Ballsy.

Shlara said...

The Skins sent a "cease & desist" to LaVar Arrington?

Worst-run organization ever

Mark said...

That Saturday I worked the Indian Doctor event is paying off today. Just went surfing for an hour. Now having a beer and shrimp tacos at a beachside bar.

Mark said...

It appears Danimal met Artis Gilmore at the TPC. Their selfie turned out as you'd expect in that Danimal was barely included.

99 BORTLES OF BEER ON THE WALL, 99 BORTLES OF BEER...

mayhugh said...

My son is also named Bort.

Anyone else kind of excited to watch Cleveland football this fall? Already had a terrifying defense and who knows what shenanigoats they can cobble together on offense.

zman said...

Stevie Johnson is a 49er. Boldin/Crabtree/Stevie/Davis is an impressive group of receivers.

mayhugh said...

From someone who is not the biggest LA fan, I thought some of Lavar's tweets about it were pretty entertaining.

zman said...

I think Cleveland will be fun to watch until Terrell Suggs obliterates Johnny Manziel in week 3.

Mark said...

If Cleveland can grab another quality WR and it seems like they should be able to with so many WRs still available and Manziel is decent early they have a pretty nice group of offensive skill guys.

I love the Stevie Johnson pickup for the 49ers. He's different from their other WRs. Will help them stretch the field and further open up underneath routes for Crabtree and Boldin.

Gorgui Dieng welcoming Teddy Bridgewater to Minneosta and telling him to bring warm clothes via tweet is why I love twitter

rob said...

re: the deaths at james blake's house, looks like a father kshot his teenage kids and wife, then killed himself. impossibly fucked up and sad.

Mark said...

Josh Gordon failed a drug test...again? This is his second in the NFL after at least 3 at Baylor. He's looking at a full year suspension. Stop. Smoking. Weed.

zman said...

I'm in the market for a vasectomy. anyone have advice/tips/things to watch out for?

Danimal said...

Z...yes. In the meantime...give me some Lee from USC.

Danimal said...

To Z....
1. Ask your buddies in your hood....get someone that has successfully snipped 'em. Defined by days out od commission, and more importantly bruising, swelling, and the like.
2. Schedule it on a Thursday or Friday of a wkd that would be nice to lay around...NFL opening wkd for example.
Give me some Marqise Lee bitches!
3. Don't do shit no matter how good you might feel for at least 72 hours..especially picking up zbabies.

Mark said...

Rams a killing this draft.

Mark said...

I love Jordan Mathews. He should be great in Philly's offense.

zman said...

I might wait and try for another boy so I can name him Ra'Shede.

rob said...

what the hell is john wall doing? this game is dreadful.

mayhugh said...

There are two Wiz fans behind the Indiana bench that are killing me. They have only been shown a couple of times, but the taller one looks to be about 5'6" and neither looks like they have ever played basketball recreationally, but they are heckling the shit out of West and Scola.

The 49ers have added Stevie Johnson and Carlos Hyde to their offense today. NFC West is ridiculous.

mayhugh said...

This game is making me physically ill.

zman said...

Aaron Murray gets his.

rob said...

this game's over. this is unwatchable.

Clarence said...

Arial is a free font?? Awesome! I love printing things that reek of 1996! No more dot matrix here, people. Arial! For free! Times New Roman and Courier New available for a fee.

zman said...

Gheorghe: The Font.

zman said...

The Texans got Clowney AND Nix? Reliant Stadium is now the Bummingdome. They play Schaub, Manuel, Locker twice, Bortles twice, and Manziel. As well as the withered husks of RGIII, Romo, and Roethlisberger. They could win 8-9 games with the defense alone. Without ever sending an offense on the field.

rob said...

we need our own font. right after we get t-shirts.

rob said...

mark, how many times have you listened to spottieottiedopaliscious while electing the pope? it seems perfectly suited to the task.

T.J. said...

will be hosting The Marls at Casa de Teej Bacon this afternoon

meats, cheeses, and booze will be consumed

Mark said...

Many, many times. It was also the walk in music for my wife and I at our wedding reception. I wasn't electing the pope at that time though.

Outkast have an instrumental song on each of their albums. All are good for this pope related activities. Funky Ride is a personal favorite.

Mark said...

The 49ers seem to be really good at this draft thing. Bruce Ellington will be a good slot WR. I think.

Mark said...

Sammy Watkins older brother was the first pick of the 4th round. He's the smaller, less athletic Watkins brother. In that family less athletic means you're a 6 FT CB who runs a 4.4 40 and benches 225 25 times. Damn my gene pool.

rob said...

de'anthony thomas the next in a long line of gamebreaking chiefs speedsters. can't wait to watch that kid play in the nfl.

Mark said...

Will be interesting to see how Thomas is used in KC. McCluster is a similar type of player. I think Thomas' best future scenario is a Sproles type player that contributes on special teams and as a receiving threat out of the backfield.

Mark said...

Jalen Saunders was a nice pickup for the Jets. Should be able to contribute as a slot WR and punt return guy.

rob said...

there are some pictures of clarence circulating on the facebook. he's a dead ringer for walt whitman.
