  1. I watched a Chiefs receiver drop an easy TD yesterday. I said, "Holy crap, how did he drop that?" and then I realized it was Kelvin Benjamin.
  2. Yeah, it wasn't pretty. I muted the sound and pretty much lost interest around the fourth time Cordarrelle Patterson gouged us on an end-around.
  3. Earth being flat makes Santa's job easier. He just starts at the center (the place that "globers" call "The North Pole") and spirals outward until he reaches the edge.
  4. Those are glamour photos, not mug shots. But your point is taken. Perhaps I should have said "rarely" instead of "never."
  5. A blast from the past.
  6. I would guess that the good-looking ones aren't the common streetwalkers who get busted during police stings. The attractive hookers are charging more money and servicing wealthy, powerful men. This keeps them shielded from the authorities, so we never see their mug shots.
  7. His future therapist can thank you for the upgrade to his/her boat. ?
  8. Greenbush, huh? I guess those are inexperienced prostitutes.
  9. Your grievance has been duly noted.
  10. Let's put the "Fest" back in Festivus!
  11. I think it was Gallagher who said, "Some people experiment with drugs. Not me - I'm into full-scale research!"
  12. Ah - another data point for the study, then.
  13. Assuming the survey passed the appropriate validity tests, did his IRB approve of using it on a football message board? Did you explicitly tell people that they could opt out of the survey with no repercussions? Who do they call if they feel that their participation has caused psychological damage ('cause, you know how paranoid potheads can be, right?) (Asking for a friend.)
  14. Hey, if you can ask for a friend, then I can answer for a friend. ?
  15. Also known as "Wake and Bake." (According to a friend...)
  16. I like using the word 'salsa.' I don't see anything wrong with calling a vet QB a mentor for a rookie. When I was new to my profession, the old-timers mentored me. As I aged, I became a mentor for the youngsters.
  17. Thanks, Ice. Right back atcha!
  18. An ugly wool sweater from a girl I was casually dating at the time. I think we went on one or two more dates and then never saw each other again. (Not because of the sweater.)
  19. I don't remember how old I was, but our son learned about "the act of mating" from watching Animal Planet when he was pretty young. One day, when he was about 9 or so, we were driving down the highway with him in the back seat. Out of the blue, he asked how a human egg was fertilized - specifically, how the sperm and egg got together. I said, "You've seen animals mating on TV; it's similar with humans, but without the growling, clawing, and biting." My wife's jaw dropped as she looked at me incredulously. Then I whispered, so only she could hear me, "Usually." ?
  20. Good to hear. He's a solid backup and a good mentor for Josh.
  21. Awwwww, watch the fox!
  22. Wow - there's an obscure rule that I never knew about. You're right, though. https://operations.nfl.com/the-rules/2018-nfl-rulebook/
  23. Whatever comes up in the rotation.
  24. Speaking of defense and substitutions, notice how a guy like Aaron Rodgers catches the D with 12 men on the field while one is furiously trying to get to the sidelines. But watch him run off the field - he's frequently traveling in a diagonal line, which is longer than if he ran parallel to the yard lines. It's only a few steps, but that's often the difference between making it on time and getting the penalty. I can't believe that in this age of analytics and All-22 film, no coach has noticed that and drilled it into the players to take the shortest route to the sideline.
