Slowly starting to enjoy RDR2. I was about to give up to be honest, but stuck with it and am starting to like it. No clue how far in I am, but I’m invested at this point. Will finish the storyline at least. Where's your current camp location for the gang? The story itself is good, especially when y...

Eagles - 6 days - Ravens - 4 days - Chiefs GTFOH https://media.tenor.com/Dmo7O6hdQ-IAAAAM/wtf-is-this-john.gif 6 of your last 8 are division games...with Philly and KC as the 2 non-division. And 3 games in 11 days is borderline dangerous, especially that late in the year. That's effing ridiculous. ...

all I want for my birthday is for this thread to be about football How is the QB situation looking in mile high? I’m excited but we’ll see. There were a lot of stories about Payton being excited for Nix. Maybe not ideal value at 12 but I guess Payton wanted to get his guy this is the highest the Br...

I have a general rule that there’s in an inverse relationship between “economic value” and memorable fun. Hobbies weddings kids all fun. All terrible in terms of cost/benefit. My goodness is this true. I think some of it's mental, like if we're spending a ton I develop unrealistic expectations of w...

Goff deal is bananas. I had to look it up... 4 years, $212MM with $170MM guaranteed. Second highest paid player behind Joe Burrow. I mean, I think he's a good fit in Detroit and has been really good there the last 2 years...and really good QBs are hard to find. The $170MM guaranteed is kinda banana...

As others have said, take solace in the fact that you are making the best decision for her, RF. It's devastating for you and yours, but she will be at peace. Sounds like she fought with everything she had, and all you could give her. That speaks volumes of her...and you. Take care.

Watching some interviews of the 3 OL linemen from this year's draft at minicamp. My goodness do they seem put together, mature for their ages, and ready to work.

The EA sports games could obviously integrate ads in pretty seamlessly, even making them part of the overall presentation and immersion. They'd be annoying, yes, but I don't really think they'd 'break' anything. The action games...yeah, not sure how they do that except on loading screens, and paying...

Schultz addressed it on his podcast. Brady kissing his kids and Kraft were the 2 off-limit topics. Ross went right out and fired a shot, and Brady shut it down. Schultz didn't think it was scripted at all, and actually sounded like he respected Brady for basically putting an end to it. Thought being...

I mean...there are varieties of white rice other than boil-a-bag. Jasmine. Arborio. Different textures and flavors. Brown rice is...not good. To me it's a worse texture and flavor than boil-a-bag white rice. It's at least edible when it's with wild rice. Wheat bread is awesome, but honestly all brea...

Still very excited to see Skenes come up and start his career in the Majors. He's one of those pitching prospects that has the potential to be an entire rotation changer. A legit 1A Ace that allows dominoes to fall behind him. If Jones is a legit 2-3, and Keller remains a solid 1-2, this rotation ca...

I'm sure this will go over well. A new version of The Office has been picked up at Peacock, though will not be a direct spinoff or reboot of the original series. Instead, it's described as being "set in the same universe" and follows "the documentary crew that immortalized Dunder Mifflin's Scranton...

Twisters is centered on Kate Cooper (Daisy Edgar-Jones), a young woman with a vertiginous history with a cataclysmic twister she faced when she was in college, and she’s been haunted by the experience ever since. :lol: I'm imagining Quint's speech about the USS Indianapolis in this context. ,,, som...

Ghostbusters Afterlife had a lot of fun stuff. It also had a lot of eye rolling stuff but luckily the fun outweighed the bad for me. I have some issues and maybe I'll get into those if anybody else has seen it but overall I had a good time watching it. It's infinitely better than 2016's version and...

This seems pretty obvious...I think one of the reasons why RB has become a devalued position isn't that there are less talented backs, it's that teams don't build their offensive core around running the ball. In fact, most teams view the run as a way to set up the pass, not necessarily as a producti...

Little over 100 hours into Dragon's Dogma 2 and finally decided to wrap up the main questline, which was extremely anticlimactic. Basically you fight the big baddie, kill him, and...cutscene to credits. Was very disappointed, but then noticed that I was still controlling my character even with the c...

That's not traditionally what is meant by 'surf-n-turf', but the times are changing.

Deion's an interesting case study for the modern CFB landscape with NIL and open transfer portals running amok. He's objectively not a good coach, but he's a big personality that has juice with young players. Style over substance, but in this environment there's a lot of 'value' there. It could real...

Interested to see what they do. They don't restructure Highsmith just for the hell of it, so something is coming. Would think with the draft over it will have to involve moving a player...maybe Moore? Maybe given Fautanu's flexibility and picking up McCormick do they move one of the Guards? Daniels...
