Dutch Lion's 2022 Pro Football Spectacular

Despite the fact we're a little (a lot) late, our pro football predictions are finally revealed in this year's "2022 Pro Football Spectacular!"

Dutch Lion’s 2022 Pro Football Spectacular * I know we’re already four games into the ’22 NFL season, but it took us awhile ‘cuz we’ve been busy. Oh well, please gimme a break. * Like our recent 2022 College Football Spectacular, we’re a week (or four) late with our Pro Football Spectacular. Nonetheless, we’re happy to be back for another season on the gridiron. In last year’s Spectacular, we…

The reason I love the CFL is there is a game called the Banjo Bowl because a punter was making fun of a rival fanbase and called them a bunch of banjo picking inbreeds. Instead of him being fined or suspended, a silly trophy was made for the game and it’s been 18 years of the Banjo Bowl following up the Labour Day Weekend game.

If you're still on the fence about watching Canadian football, please tune into CBS Sports Network (or TSN if you're actually in Canada) and watch this Calgary-Winnipeg game. Thank me later.

It's Grey Cup weekend! The league championship for the CFL is being conested in my hometown, Hamilton, ON, between the Winnipeg Blue Bombers and the Montreal Alouettes! And also, Green Day is doing the halftime show! It's WAY better than the Super Bowl. Who do you think will win? My pick is the Bombers.

Boom Sacked, First Down

[prairiedaun]

I knew they had to stop being champions at some point, but did they have to lose like that. By one point. To fucking Toronto.

(I have no problem with Argos fans, it’s the rest of the Toronto sports bros who spent all their time shitting on the league because they’re convinced they’ll get an NFL team, who then turn around and rub it the Argos success in other fans faces. GTFO.)

Anyway. It’s hard to be too upset after dominating for three years, especially after decades of the team being run so poorly, and sometimes having success in spite of themselves only to have something cosmically bad happen to them. I trust them to still be good next year, too.

THIS DAY IN GAY HISTORY

based on: The White Crane Institute's 'Gay Wisdom', Gay Birthdays, Gay For Today, Famous GLBT, glbt-Gay Encylopedia, Today in Gay History, Wikipedia, and more …

September 6

1809 – English sailor Charles North receives 300 lashes and 2 years of solitary confinement for "indecent liberties" with a ship's boy.

1890 – Carl Maria Weber who also wrote under the pseudonym Olaf, was a German educator and writer born in Düsseldorf, Germany.(d.1953) Carl Maria Weber was the author of poems and essays . His early poems often deal with typically Expressionist themes such as the love of mankind and the call to action; his later work was strongly influenced by the youth movement and characterized by a vague sympathy for socialism.

Carl Maria Weber was the son of a teacher. He grew up in Düsseldorf. During his studies at the University of Bonn from 1912 to 1914, he made contacts with Thomas Mann and Kurt Hiller.

During the First World War, Weber became a pacifist. In 1919 he was a member of the Wandervogel movement. In 1920 he was appointed by Wilhelm Vershofen to the group of "Workers on House Nyland"; there he was in charge of lecturing. He published his texts in numerous expressionist Magazines.

From 1921 to 1926 he was a teacher of German and history at the Free School Community of Wickersdorf. After he passed his teacher exams in 1927, he worked as a teacher at various private schools in the province. In 1932 he withdrew from literary life after one of his stories was mutilated by the censors because of its anti-militarist tendencies.

From 1937 Weber worked as a teacher at the Marquartstein Landerziehungsheim . His unchanged pacifist attitude and his homosexuality made his work there increasingly difficult. After the nationalization of the home in 1942, Weber saw no other way out than to join the Nazi party, especially in order to avoid the threat of being called up for military service.

His Nazi party membership was his undoing after 1945. He was dismissed by the American occupiers; the attempt to be politically rehabilitated failed, so that Weber fell into deep poverty and finally died of a starvation-related heart attack.

1976 – Oladele Brendon Ayanbadejo is an American football linebacker and special teamer who played in Canadian Football League (CFL) and the National Football League (NFL) for thirteen seasons. He played college football for the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA). He was signed by the Atlanta Falcons as an undrafted free agent in 1999.

Ayanbadejo has been selected to the Pro Bowl three times as a special teams player. He also was named to the All-Pro team two times as special teams player by Pro Football Weekly/Pro Football Writers Association. He has also been a member of the Chicago Bears and Miami Dolphins of the NFL, the Amsterdam Admirals of NFL Europe, and the Winnipeg Blue Bombers, Toronto Argonauts and BC Lions of the CFL.

Ayanbadejo was born in Chicago to a Nigerian father and an American mother of Irish descent. He has one older brother, Obafemi Ayanbadejo, also a professional football player. Shortly after his birth the family moved to Nigeria, but after his parents separated he returned to the United States with his mother, settling in Chicago and then Santa Cruz, California.

Since 2009, Ayanbedejo has advocated for legalizing same-sex marriage. His advocacy rather suddenly became a cause célèbre in September 2012, after Maryland State Delegate Emmett C. Burns, Jr. wrote an August 29, 2012 letter to Baltimore Ravens owner Steve Bisciotti, on official Maryland State letterhead, demanding that Bisciotti "take the necessary action ... to inhibit such expressions from your employee." Burns' letter went on to state that, "I know of no other NFL player who has done what Mr. Ayanbadejo is doing. Burns' letter was widely criticized as an effort to infringe on Ayanbadejo's right to free speech. According to The Washington Post, the Ravens acknowledged receiving the letter but had no further comment.

Shortly after the Burns letter was delivered, Ayanbedejo publicly announced that, as the son of interracial parents whose own marriage would have been illegal in 16 states prior to the U.S. Supreme Court's landmark Loving v. Virginia decision in 1967, he had no intention of remaining silent on an issue of conscience and public importance. Ayanbadejo has since said that he has received widespread support in the world of football. Among others, Minnesota Vikings punter Chris Kluwe wrote a scathing response to Burns, while the Ravens also publicly sided with Ayanbadejo. In February 2013, Ayanbadejo and Kluwe filed a joint amicus brief with the Supreme Court in support of same-sex marriage, particularly in the case dealing with California Proposition 8.

1980 – Vikram Kolmannskog is an Indian-Norwegian writer, psychotherapist, and jurist.He was born and lives in Oslo, Norway. In 2008, as a legal adviser working with the Norwegian Refugee Council, Kolmannskog wrote Future Floods of Refugees: A Comment on Climate Change, Conflict, and Forced Migration. This became the starting point for the work that he and the Norwegian Refugee Council did to improve the rights of so-called climate refugees.

Kolmannskog has practiced as a gestalt therapist since 2012. In this field too he has been particularly concerned with research related to marginalised groups, including trans folks.

Kolmannskog writes fiction and poetry. Much of his work explores the intersections of queerness, sexuality, and spirituality. With Taste and See: A Queer Prayer, published in 2018, he became known as an author who 'reconciles religiosity, spirituality and being queer'. His work was described as 'a lyrical study of passion, both religious and carnal'.

Many of his poems and short stories have been written during, and as part of, the Indian LGBTQ mobilisation, and he has been a regular contributor to Indian LGBTQ magazines such as Gaylaxy. On 6 September 2019, on the one-year anniversary of the Indian decriminalisation of homosexuality, a collection of his short stories Lord of the Senses was published by queer-of-colour–centric press Team Angelica.

In March 2020, Lord of the Senses was announced as one of the Lambda Literary Award finalists in Oprah Magazine.

Jwan Yosef (L) and Ricky Martin

1984 – Jwan Yosef is a Syrian-born, Swedish painter and artist. He specializes in plastic arts and is based in London, England.

Yosef was born in Ras al-Ayn, Syria, to a Kurdish Muslim father and an Armenian Christian mother. His family immigrated to Sweden when he was two years old, and later he studied painting in Pernby School of Painting in Stockholm between 2004 and 2006, then moved to Konstfack University College of Arts, Crafts and Design, Stockholm.

Yosef has taken part in a great number of art fairs and group exhibitions. He held two solo exhibitions in 2013 titled Painting about Sex, Flesh and Violence, lol at the DIVUS Gallery in London and High Notes, at the Galleri Anna Thulin, Stockholm. He participated in the Threadneedle Prize exhibition in 2013 and the BEERS Contemporary Award for Emerging Art both in 2013. In 2015 he exhibited at Galleri Bon with group exhibition There and Back Again with fellow Konstfack graduates Josef Bull, Petr Davydtchenko and Natasja Loutchko. He is a founding member and studio holder at The Bomb Factory Art Foundation in Archway, North London.

Yosef is openly gay. In April 2016, during the amfAR, The Foundation for AIDS Research gala in São Paulo, Brazil, he publicly announced that he had been in a relationship with Puerto Rican singer Ricky Martin. The couple married in 2017. On December 31, 2018, Martin and Yosef announced, via Instagram, the birth of their daughter, Lucia Martin-Yosef. On October 29, 2019, Martin and Yosef announced the birth of their son, Renn Martin-Yosef.

2005 – The California legislature becomes the first to pass a bill allowing marriage between same-sex couples. Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger vetoes the bill. The same thing happens in 2007.

PEOPLE I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW BETTER

Thanks for the tag, @goldenseresinretriever 🥰

LAST SONG? “You’re So Vain by Carly Simon

FAVORITE COLOR? Blue!! I love all shades but am particularly fond of Winnipeg Jet Blue and Winnipeg Blue Bomber Blue. What can I say, I am a huge sports fan.

CURRENTLY WATCHING? SPORTS: Hockey baby!! My Jets lost to the Leafs 1-0 in OT tonight, so I’m a little bit sad.  Starting in June, I will be watching my Winnipeg Blue Bombers football team. I am a die-hard fan and season ticket holder.

LAST MOVIE? In the theatre, Anyone But You. At home, sitting on the couch? Saltburn(I need to scrub this movie from my mind)

SWEET/SPICY/SAVOURY? I love savory and sweet. It just depends on the day. I used to hate anything spicy. Like black pepper was too spicy. I have slowly re-introduced spicy into my diet and have found a few local hot sauces I love.

RELATIONSHIP STATUS? Painfully single. The lady who does my taxes each year asks me the same question: Still Single? It has become a running joke and it's actually hilarious.

CURRENT OBSESSIONS? Taylor Swift, TGM, Glen Powell and hockey LOL

LAST THING YOU GOOGLED? Recipe for waffles 🧇
