#Dom’s mailbag

[domono08]

Hold up one second, if you're really taking requests atm, then are there any actual rules or conditions that we should be aware of? Do they have to involve certain fandoms and such? And are crossovers also allowed?

It has to be fandoms that I know like Nintendo (Mario, Zelda, animal crossing, etc)

Cartoons I draw

(Tiny toons, looney tunes, loonatics, dc comics, clone high, etc )

But any toon is fine.

Any OC is fine

If you ask me to do NITW, deltarune/undertale, psueedoregalia, or other indie games or hell even Sonic! I will draw so I can have an excuse to.

Your OCs I will do.

No sexual

No fetishes

And that’s it.

Also, any animal you have I can do it too!

SLAPSHOT #2: AND THERE WAS ONLY ONE TRENCH

SLAPSHOTS are part mailbag, part whatever else happens to be rattling around in our brains that week. In these semi-regular mini-episodes, we'll discuss hockey current events, answer listener questions, and tackle short-form fandom topics using a looser, less structured approach than the main episodes.

This week, your hosts say ENOUGH of this "real" hockey nonsense—let's talk about TROPES, baby! In the absence of our beloved Kit, Jes and Bec answer a slew of listener questions about tropes and trends in hockey fic. Join us for a fun romp through topics like D/S AUs, tinhatting and fanservice in hockey vs. boy band fandoms, the significance of ~alternative domestic spaces~ in hockey fic, and whether sports columnists are really just writing (paid) RPF. And if you want access to Bec's secret knowledge about Sidney Crosby, well—you'll just have to meet us down at the casino.

Runtime: 58 minutes || Recorded 2.20.23

0:00-18:40 dom/sub AUs vs. A/B/O

18:40-31:28 fan service & fandom dynamics in boy band vs. hockey fandoms

31:30-39:30 public and private spaces in real person fiction (or: what happens in the hotel stays in the hotel)

40:00-48:45 whither all the trope fics?

48:45-58:00 entertainment journalism & hockey RPF

The Boondocks #25: “Home Alone” | December 17, 2007 - 11:30PM | S02E10

This is another fun, pretty typical sitcom style episode. In this one, Tom convinces Granddad to go on a sex-having vacation to escape the stress of having to rear his two awful boys.

This will require hiring a sitter. Huey and Riley have a storied past when it comes to being sat. They are on a “do not sit” list, just like Bart Simpson before them. Eventually Granddad settles on Uncle Ruckus for sitter, but even he can’t stand up to their terror. He eventually flees, leaving the kids to their own devices.

Riley takes the stash of money Granddad has tucked away and buys some fancy clothes. Huey, pragmatically concerned with their newfound inability to buy food for themselves, grounds Riley and eventually becomes a fascist, treating Huey like a literal prisoner. Meanwhile Tom feels ditched by Granddad who feigned interest in bringing Tom with him, and Granddad fails to come anywhere close to achieving his dreams of having women do kisses on him while smiling big. 

This one is all about character-driven gags. It’s also all about the boys calling each other a word that rhymes with gag. Well, it rhymes with gaggy, specifically. I am sorry, everyone, I enjoy hearing mean words on comedy programs. Even that one word that the characters on the show are allowed to say and I am not.

There’s a number of cultural references, such as the then-current discussion of Jay-Z calling for a boycott on Cristal. The guy under fire, managing director Frédéric Rouzaud, was asked if he felt that Cristal’s association with rap could hurt the brand. All he had to do was say “no, of course not” but instead he said this: “that’s a good question, but what can we do? We can’t forbid people from buying it. I’m sure Dom Pérignon or Krug would be delighted to have their business.” Not great, but it’s a far cry from what Uncle Ruckus claims he said. Uncle Ruckus’ false recollection of the quote is insanely funny and very rude. 

Other bits worth mentioning: Granddad’s frustration with post-9/11 airport security. This scene is very funny, and includes some great lines on the overhead address system. There’s also a moment during Riley’s grounding where they use the music from Platoon. I have only seen Platoon once and I didn’t really like it all that much, but I have heard this music in about a billion different comedies and always have to rack my brain to remember what it was from. I think they used it in Salute Your Shorts once. Okay, that’s how we’re ending this post, sorry.

MAIL BAG

Programming note: probably not gonna post on Tuesday for purely tactical reasons. Please update your expectations accordingly.

Do you make up these mailbags as little jokes to yourself or are people actually sending them in?

That’s an amazing question. The truth is I do all the voices of the people who call in. No, just kidding. I would say the make-up is this: 40% a guy I know. 30% another guy I know. 20% another guy I know. 7% a few guys I know. 3% actual people who happened to find this blog on tumblr and care enough about it to write in and ask stuff. 0% girls :(

My favorite shot in the Petite Feet sketch is the one of Tim leaning on the dartboard that someone is actively playing on. Very lame in a Huey Lewis - Sports kind of way. I love it.

The staging in this sketch is unreal. The boys look great. The song sounds great. What more could you ask for?

[marcomardon]

Imagine a black screen... Now imagine a slit in the screen the height of a wooden ruler lying flat... Now hang fake fur over it... Now look through the hole... There's Dom! Or is it Franz? Who can tell? Wait for them to say something. Then you'll know for sure.

Wentworth Mlller, Mailbag 9.1: “I guess I've wanted to know could you see much out of the 'new' (ie most recent) Captain Cold glasses ?”

Origens em Harry Potter: Nomes e Sobrenomes

Olá pessoal! Hoje o Wickred veio contar algumas curiosidades sobre os nomes de alguns dos personagens da saga Harry Potter. Nossa amada J.K. Rowling aparentemente tem uma queda por mitologia grega, uma vez que muitos nomes vêm de palavras ou personagens dessa antiga cultura. Sem mais delongas, vamos às curiosidades! Ah, as fontes estarão no final do post!

LUMOS!

1. Começamos com o nome de guerra do nosso querido Lord Voldemort. Esse nome pode ser desmembrado na expressão francesa “vol de mort”, que pode ser traduzida mais ou menos como “vôo da morte”, em referência à busca de Voldemort pela imortalidade.

2. Outra expressão francesa encontrada nos livros está no nome da casa da Grifinória (em inglês, Gryffindor). Em francês, Griffon d’Or (pronunciado exatamente como Gryffindor) é uma expressão que significa “grifo dourado”. O simbolo da Grifinória é, de fato, um grifo dourado; aliás, a porta do escritório de Dumbledore tem um batedor de ouro com o formato de um grifo. Boa, J.K.

3. Filch, o estranhíssimo e detestável zelador de Hogwarts, tem um nome que vem de uma uma antiga palavra inglesa que significa “roubar algo, geralmente de pouco valor”. Falando de Filch, um dos significados da palavra “squib” (original para “aborto” nos livros) é “fogo de artifício estragado”, que queima, mas não explode. Ah, e a querida Madame Norra remete a uma personagem desagradável do romance Mansfield Park, de Jane Austen.

4. J.K. Rowling adora um trocadilho, sabiam? O nome em inglês Diagon Alley (Beco Diagonal) é um trocadilho com a palavra “diagonally” (“na diagonal”), ao passo que Knockturn Alley (Travessa do Tranco) é um trocadilho com a palavra “nocturnally” (“noturno”).

5. A casa da Sonserina tem um nome bem estranho à primeira vista. O sobrenome do fundador, Salazar Slytherin pode ser um trocadilho com “sly therein”. A astúcia (“slyness”, em inglês) é uma das qualidades mais notáveis dos membros da casa Sonserina. Aliás, o primeiro nome de Slytherin é igual ao do notável ditador português Salazar, conhecido por apoiar regimes totalitários e altamente racistas.

6. A língua latina também está presente no universo de Harry Potter, encontrada na raiz de muitos dos feitiços. Por exemplo, crucio é o verbo “torturar”, accio é o verbo “convocar” e protego é o verbo “proteger”, todos em latim. Muitos outros feitiços derivam do latim, provavelmente por ser uma língua muito antiga que influenciou fortemente as demais línguas européias.

7. Logo começo de A Pedra Filosofal conhecemos o professor Quirino Quirrel. O primeiro nome do professor de Defesa Contra Artes das Trevas vem de um deus da mitologia romana, Jano Quirino. Curiosamente, esse deus tinha duas cabeças… soa familiar?

8. O professor, auror e lobisomem Remo Lupin também têm seu nome originado na mitologia romana, mais precisamente na antiga lenda sobre fundação de Roma: os irmãos Rômulo e Remo foram os gêmeos abandonados pelos pais, encontrados e criados por uma loba. E o sobrenome de Remo, Lupin, vem da palavra latina “lupinus”, que significa “de um lobo”. Tudo fez sentido agora, não é?

9. Falando em lobos, o nome do terrível lobisomem Fenrir “Lobo” Greyback vem de uma criatura da mitologia nordica, Fenrir, que tinha a forma de um lobo gigante e feroz. Depois de se libertar dos deuses, Fenrir vagueou pelo mundo, “devorando tudo em seu caminho”. Bem a cara de Greyback.

10. O nome da escola de magia de Durmstrang, possivelmente localizada em algum lugar bem ao norte (como nos disse Hermione), é derivado do movimento literário alemão “Sturm und Drang”, que é traduzido como “tempestade e ímpeto”.

11. A família Black é uma das famílias mais controversas da saga, na minha opinião. Quase todos dessa família têm nomes de estrelas ou constelações.. Bellatrix (Belatrix) é a terceira estrela mais brilhante na constelação de Órion; Andrômeda é o nome da galáxia mais próxima da Terra; Régulo é a estrela mais brilhante na constelação de Leão e Arcturus é a quarta estrela mais brilhante no céu. Se pensarmos bem, poderiam existir ligações entre as características dessas estrelas/constelações e seus personagens? Talvez…

12. O nome do excêntrico pai de Luna Lovegood é Xenofílio. Em conformidade com a atitude da família Lovegood, xenofilia é um amor ou afeição por estranhos e desconhecidos. Muito certeiro para um personagem tão… diferentão.

13. Nicolas Flamel – amigo de Dumbledore e criador da Pedra Filosofal – foi uma pessoa real. Ele era um escrivão francês, casado com uma mulher chamada Perenelle, e só ganhou sua reputação como alquimista centenas de anos após sua morte.

14. O nome da fênix Fawkes pode ser uma referência a outra pessoa real: Guy Fawkes. Fawkes foi um homem inglês que conspirou (com mais treze pessoas) para matar o Rei Jaime I, com uma tentativa de explodir o Parlamento Inglês em 1605. O evento é comemorado todo ano com fogueiras e fogos de artifício. Ótimo nome para um pet que ocasionalmente pega fogo quando está se sentindo meio velho, certo?

15. Outro pet que tem um nome derivado de uma pessoal real é a nossa amada Edwiges! A grande coruja das neves de Harry tem o mesmo nome que Santa Edviges da Silésia, padroeira das Irmãs de Santa Edviges, cujo principal objetivo é a educação de crianças abandonadas e órfãs.

Já cansaram de ler? Tomara que não! Separei aqui com carinho alguns nomes derivados da mitologia grega e sempre me pego pensando se os personagens mitológicos teriam emprestado algumas de suas características para os seus homônimos da saga. O que acham?

16. Começamos com uma personagem que divide opiniões: Narcisa Malfoy. Na mitologia grega, Narciso era um homem conhecido por sua beleza que morreu depois de passar muito tempo olhando para o próprio reflexo. Narcisa aparece em alguns momentos como alguém muito orgulhoso e egoísta, embora tenha seus lados mais… maternais.

17. Já falamos do zelador Filch lá em cima, mas aqui vai uma curiosidade sobre seu primeiro nome: Argos. Na mitologia grega, Argos era um gigante com cem olhos. Seu sobrenome, Panoptes, significa “aquele que tudo vê”. Faz todo sentido ter um zelador com esse nome, certo?

18. O nome de Ariana Dumbledore vem da personagem Ariadne, que na mitologia grega guiou Teseu para fugir do labirinto do Minotauro, depois do herói ter matado a besta. O quadro de Ariana de fato guiou o trio até Hogwarts para sua batalha final.

17. Alastor, o primeiro nome do veterano “Olho-Tonto” Moody, é a palavra grega para “vingador”. Zeus, o rei dos deuses do Olimpo, foi chamado de Zeus Alastor quando assumiu uma forma vingativa. Alastor Moody realmente nos traz essa imagem de uma força vingativa e enérgica, na minha opinião.

18. O primeiro nome da Professora Minerva McGonagall é uma referência a Minerva, deusa romana da sabedoria e da justiça. Todos sabemos que a diretora da Grifinória é uma das personagens mais sábias e justas da saga, não é?

19. Descobrimos ao longo da saga que o nome da avó da Professora Trelawney era Cassandra. Na mitologia grega, Cassandra foi uma mulher que recebeu o dom da profecia do deus Apolo. Depois que ela se recusou a se casar com ele, ele a amaldiçoou para que ninguém nunca acreditasse em suas profecias. Aliás, o primeiro nome da professora Sibila Trelawney também vem da grécia e significa “profetisa”.

20. Cães com três cabeças – como o Fofo da Pedra Filosofal – eram muito comuns na mitologia grega. O mais famoso é Cérbero, que guarda os portões do inferno. No livro, Hagrid diz ter comprado Fofo de “um camarada grego” que ele conheceu no pub.

21. E o nome da coruja de Percy Weasley vem do deus grego Hermes, o mensageiro dos deuses. Essa foi fácil, J.K.

Ufa! É nome que não acaba mais! E isso que falamos apenas de alguns personagens, mas tem muito mais coisa escondida nos nomes e sobrenomes na saga. Nós do Wickred gostamos muito de pesquisar sobre as origens dos nomes dos lugares, pessoas, objetos e animais da saga de Harry Potter. Já descobriu algum que não está na lista? Conta pra gente nos comentários! Aproveita e segue a gente nas redes sociais pra ver mais conteudos legais!

Beijos e bolos de caldeirão pra vocês!

NOX!

Fantasy form watch: Gun Bomber fails to launch

Zach Merrett has damaged his Pig chances after a disappointing showing against Brisbane

IT WAS a huge round. A whopping 22 players stepped up to score over 120! Unfortunately, a certain little Piglet, and popular captain selection didn’t get the memo. We will discuss that in more detail in a moment. On a positive note, in a season starved for good downgrade options, we suddenly have a handful of young guns putting their best foot forward as we strive to complete our teams.

Fantasy pig

Bryce Gibbs is in rare form, backing up his thumping score a couple of weeks ago with a round high 160 from 30 touches, two goals and 15 tackles. He is an absolute beast and is currently only being enjoyed by less than six per cent of the competition. Unfortunately for everyone else, you snooze, you lose… He is now over $700k.

• Nine things we learned from round 15

Honourable mention: Luke Parker looks like he might be back! And at his current price, it is hard to resist. He was a dominant force against the Demons with 38 touches, six marks, six tackles and a goal while looking as fit and comfortable as I have seen him all year.

Rage trades 

Zach Merrett will have to wait for his pending Pig status after a disappointing effort in a favourable matchup at home to the Lions who have been giving up big scores at will. Coming off 10 straight 100s, Merrett had a horrible first half by his standards, eventually scoring 78 from 19 touches, well short of his 32-possession average. He hurt the 12 per cent of coaches that game him captain responsibility.

Honourable mention: Caleb Marchbank has had a sensational season, but his scores are moving in the wrong direction and it’s time for the rookie of the year contender to go. His marks and tackles were down this week, recording just thee and zero respectively for a score of 44.

Piglet

There were a heap of boys stepping up over the weekend and they are all viable options, despite their inflated prices following fine performances. Declan Mountford (90), Alex Witherden (96), Sean Darcy (114), Luke Ryan (77) and Malcolm Karpany (95) all stepped up for their coaches and are now on the radar as downgrade or patch up job options.

• Around the state leagues: Who starred in your club’s twos?

The top five 

Bryce Gibbs: 160

Luke Parker: 148

He is a gun, keep him!

Risk it to get the biscuit!

As a luxury trade, and yes.

It’s tempting, but Stef scores well at home and he has a good match up this week.

Not something you need to worry about, I hear your players called a crisis meeting tonight #pushed

Scouting the Cowboys/Packers Divisional Round Matchup

When these two teams met in October, It was the Cowboys’ second to none ground attack (Ezekiel Elliott ran for 157 yards) – Dak Prescott’s proficient passing (threw for 247 yards and three touchdown passes) – and defense that got the best of what was at the time (a dysfunctional Packers’ offense) by coming away with four takeaways in the Cowboys’ 30-16 win at historic Lambeau Field. Dysfunction has turned over to rhythm and cohesion with Aaron Rodgers (the games best improviser and deadliest passer) stifling defenses in route to the Packers’ seven-game win streak – including last week’s 38-13 thumping win over the Giants in the Wild Card round.

With that in mind, it’s time to delve into the five keys of this intriguing divisional round matchup that has the makeup for an exciting extravaganza at AT&T Stadium.

Rod Marinelli is a fan of the Cowboys’ decision to draft Ezekiel Elliott.

1:  Dime package is becoming Marinelli’s go to method

Look for Cowboys’ DC Rod Marinelli’s to employ what’s been working masterfully – the 3-2-6 dime package. Marinelli utilized this look to thwart Rodgers in their Week 6 matchup by dropping seven to eight guys back with man coverage (obstructing Rodgers’ throwing lanes to keep him out of sync). The kicker here is…defensive coordinators evade blitzing against Rodgers due to the fact that he can escape a swarm of rushers to extend the play with his exceptional mobility. The more defenders Marinelli employs in coverage – the merrier the chances for the Cowboys’ defense to neutralize the Packers’ high-octane aerial attack.

2: The return of Mo

Morris Claiborne returns from a groin injury he suffered against the Eagles in Week 8. With Claiborne back to team up with his compadres Brandon Carr, Anthony Brown and Orlando Scandrick to man Rodgers’s outlets – the Cowboys’ secondary will be at full strength with a wealth of depth. The Packers will be without Rodgers’ bread and butter target Jordy Nelson (ribs), opening up the door for Geronimo Allison and Jeff Janis (two receivers that aren’t nuanced route runners but can high point and make contested catches).

Containing DaVante Adams (a physical receiver Rodgers can get the ball to on fades and slants like he infamously has with Nelson) and Randall Cobb (a nifty man beater) will be paramount, but pending on if Packers’ HC Mike McCarthy plans to utilize them frequently in the slot – Orlando Scandrick or Anthony Brown may see a good amount of matchups against Rodgers’ best receivers that could decipher how the Cowboys’ secondary fares. The better than advertised matchup will be Cowboys’ safety Byron Jones (one of the best in the league at manning tight ends) on Packers’ TE Jared Cook (who can run the seams and work outside the numbers). With Cook’s athleticism and size used on the boundary, Nelson and Adams have been given the luxury to matchup against nickel DBs in the slot to their advantage, but without Nelson, Adams, Allison and Janis may see more snaps on the perimeter against Claiborne or Carr.

3: Will the Packers turn to the ground game?

Without Eddie Lacy (ankle), the Packers have lost their violent-bruising runner to put exhausting physical tolls on defenders and have them commit up to crowd the box. Converted receiver Ty Montgomery (a versatile weapon) and Christine Michael (a non-patient but aggressive style of runner) has given the Packers some semblance of a running game. McCarthy has used the multifaceted Montgomery out of the backfield on swing passes and to tote the rock when the Packers are in their spread three-receiver sets.

This keeps defenses guessing – but I’m wondering if McCarthy elects to run the ball more, using fullback Aaron Ripkowski (who has the aptitude to lead block and create running lanes) and some 7 man O-lines (12 personnel two tight end sets) with Michael and Montgomery to get the Cowboys’ defense to cheat up and respect the run. In spite of the fact that Rodgers doesn’t necessarily need the ground game to have a stellar performance – an effective game on the ground will keep Rodgers in high percentage passing downs and amplify their opportunities of getting the play-action pass going to potentially strike a fundamentally sound Cowboys’ secondary over the top. This was an effective tactic when Lacy was their healthy featured runner.

4: Controlling the interior and why Beasley should get lots of singled up looks

Led by three All-Pro O-lineman (LT Tyron Smith, Center Travis Frederick, G Zack Martin), the Cowboys’ maulers are deservedly marveled for their masterful blocking. Packers’ 322-pound nose tackle Letroy Guion and 310-pound defensive tackle Mike Daniels are the inside trenches of Packers’ DC Dom Capers’ unit that will be imperative for the Packers on trying to mitigate Elliott from gashing them. Without successful penetration from Guion and Daniels, the Cowboys’ road graders will be able to execute their superb zone blocking to create cutback lanes for Elliott to get the second level.

Does Capers trust his subpar inside linebackers Jake Ryan and Blake Martinez to hunt down the prodigious Elliott without extra help to stack the box or does he opt to keep his safeties deep with 2 man looks? The Packers don’t possess a lockdown corner trustworthy of manning up against a boundary threat receiver like Dez Bryant. Second-year corner Ladarius Gunter, who has the biggest frame, should be matched up on Bryant with safety help while Damarious Randall will likely be on Terrance Williams on the opposite side. With odds favoring Bryant and tight end Jason Witten (ace option route runner) to be doubled – look for Cole Beasley to be singled up with Packers’ nickel corner Micah Hyde. Hyde is competent inside, but Beasley’s quickness breaking in and out of his routes will be a tough task for Hyde on defending Prescott’s fabulous underneath slot threat.

  Oct 30, 2016; Atlanta, GA, USA; Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers (12) reacts after scoring a two point conversion against the Atlanta Falcons during the fourth quarter at the Georgia Dome. The Falcons defeated the Packers 33-32.

5: Containing Rodgers from beating you with his legs

Ditching play structures in sandlot mode isn’t the only factor helping Rodgers mask his receivers’ inconsistencies on getting separation – the Packers’ offensive line’s adroit pass protection, also buys the two-time league MVP lots of duration for his outlets to get free from defenders. Whether Marinelli employs three-man or four-man rushes – containing Rodgers with a spy (probably with a linebacker shadowing him) could be part of the mix along with exclusively having his down-lineman stunt and twist – striving to force Rodgers to make contested throws and keep him at bay to limit Mr. Discount Double Check himself from scrambling to move the chains.
