Yeah I bought into the FF nerd hype last week and started him since 'Surtain would be on Myers' or whatever. Didn't work out well. What about Wandale or Slayton? Nabers is out again.

Finding life kind of challenging right now. I wanted to get a dog after our remodel finished. My kids had been begging for one, and we never re upped after my last dog passed in 2017. Got a puppy. I knew everything would be on me and i was and still am cool with that. But holy shit. It's like I have 3 kids rather than a spouse and 2 kids. I ask for a modicum of help so I can perform some sort of essential task, i.e. can you make sure the puppy doesn't eat the couch and choke on the fabric so I can take a shower and I get out of the shower and the puppy is by herself in the blocked off family room with a mouthful of string in her mouth. That was last week. Tonight I came upstairs from my shower to find the dog on the couch and my 11 yo hurriedly shooing her off the couch when she realized it was me. Wife sitting next to her. Wtf you guys, I'm paying a lot of money for obedience classes so that she doesn't do shit like this. Maybe we'll allow it one day but not now. I've been clear about that. I had to explain that I was not upset with the dog or my daughter, but the adult in the room who knows better An hour later I'm told that we took the dog out but we let a hornet in the house and we don't know where it is or what to do. Cue the Benny Hill music. Sure enough, it's 50 degrees out and raining but somehow they found a hornet and escorted it into the house at 11 fucking 30 at night. He's dead now thanks to my Oofos slide but what the hell man, I just wanted to watch football.

Holy shit Ariana Grande looks fucking terrible. Like an alien with an eating disorder. Last I remember she was hot.

I vote $100

Yes. Literal goosebumps. As a "Detroiter" (burbs), that little barb he threw definitely hurt some people in my generation. With few exceptions regardless of political affiliation, we rep Detroit and are very proud of it. It pissed me off - would have pissed me off if anyone said it - but at the same time it kinda delights me to think about the uncomfortable internal dilemma it's giving to dudes in Shelby Township (Macomb County R stronghold) with an old English D tatted on one forearm and 313 tatted on the other. Not going to change anyone's vote, but I guarantee you those dudes - and there are a lot of those dudes across the area - did not like that comment one bit.

I would start Kirko. I picked up Minnesota's D a few weeks ago in one of my leagues. I need a replacement, as well. The problem is I drafted a bunch of Dolphins and don't have anyone to drop to pick up a D. Drop Vikings D and hope to pick them up on Waivers? I'm 6th in priority and at least 3 in front of me are streaming Ds this week. Tyreek Waddle Mostert Davante Adams Kareem Hunt Or just start a dead D? My RBs are terrible and thin so it would not be wise to drop either Mostert or Hunt.

If we can get Derka's new guy and get @BallamaticBevo to check in and confirm we're at a nice round 10 teams.

You're in!

Detroit vs Everybody Well at least vs "those people"

@RexWilson - out @BallamaticBevo said let's run it back at the end of last year but hasn't confirmed participation this year @Dutchrudder - gung ho and in @ztejas - out Confirmed: Derka, his buddies, @Capn81, @BigOrange1, @ITHorn, Dutchrudder, me

If I'm looking at that thing right without going to Google maps, that's right where my old offices were. Westshore and Kennedy.

My entire work team lives in Tampa. 90% overall of my work colleagues are in the area as that was our HQ until we got bought out by big corp a couple of years ago. On my direct team I oversee, 3 of 4 are evacuating. It took one guy and his family 4 hours to get to Ocala this morning. As for the guy that is staying, I'm not getting much info out of him as to why. I'm not sure if he's in an evacuation zone or not. One of the guys who is leaving is in zone B and he said as of this morning A, B and C were mandatory evac zones.

Wife and I have it and love it for when we fly as a family with two kids. Definitely has saved us some time.

Now this pac is sending out mailers. These arrived today. I'm not that clever but when I explained this to my wife and 15 year old their heads exploded. At least one of those people has a Masters degree. Think about how easily their propaganda crap works on Trailer Nation.

Wrong actress. You're talking about Dr. Angelface. That's Pand.

This season is very weird. Odd dialogues and exchanges that seem out of place. The whole Jelly Roll scene as some kind of misguided prank on Dwight for example. And I still resent them trying to make the bar owner guy the next Elvis.

Every time I've counted on a 1-3 deck shoe, I get unlucky and still lose my bets when I press and the count is high. And I usually didn't have enough bankroll to let the statistics self correct my chip stack over time. The martingale system is hilarious, though. Back in the day, I was over my number and I told my bookie I was just going to keep doubling my bet until I won. He said ok your new limit is $1k. Doh.

This is incorrect. He died because he was the wrong guy in the wrong place at the wrong time.

@chainsaw Found the pac when the same ad started littering my Twitter feed. As I suspected, it's a fake Pro Kamala ad. Turns out they are running similar ads that paint her as Pro Palestinian in areas with high populations of Jewish people. https://jewishinsider.com/2024/09/future-coalition-pac-kamala-harris-microtargeting-muslim-jewish-voters/ Michigan does have a bit of an Arab problem. On the Christian side they are all Pro Cheeto because they have long been single issue voters tied to the abortion issue. On the Muslim side they are pissed at Biden about Israel and for some reason think that Trump is going to be less Pro Netanyahu, which I cannot understand. I still think we will be firmly blue come November but stuff like the Mayor of Hamtramck publicly endorsing Trump continues to amaze me. https://www.wxyz.com/news/voices/hamtramck-residents-react-to-mayor-amer-ghalib-endorsing-donald-trump

Is anyone else seeing the Kamala changes her mind a lot, but one thing she hasn't and won't change her mind on is Israel commercial during football? It is playing itself as a Pro Harris ad but seems very back handed with the "compliments" if not subtle insults. Then it dawned on me that there is a large contingent of Arabs in my metro area. Interesting. I looked for the ad on YT but couldn't find it.

Someone hasn't been watching First Take. That's Caitlin Clark.

Yeah when he opens the freezer it cracks me up. On the other side of the coin are the Kevin Hart Draft Kings spots. I'm not even a Kevin Hart hater but man. Just shut up already.

That Skyrizi commercial with the dude grinning from ear to ear while flying a kite with his kid in a patch of grass located within a mountainous paradise is the weirdest shit I've ever seen. I felt like I must have been high watching it.

My grandpa used to let me finish his Miller Lites when I would visit them in Florida when I was like 4 or 5. I liked the taste of it. One time back home I discovered a can of Miller Lite in the garage that had liquid in the bottom and took a big swig. Gasoline. Some might say that this explains a thing or two.

As Briscoe would say, I just had a pifane about why I'm digging the W so much this season.
