  1. Jr is out this year. I did not play two teams last year but I would be this year after the draft.
  2. The only time I've ever been in Pinball's in EL was to get to the secret entrance of the Riv. I do believe it is still there. Did you ever make it to EL? Sounds like good times were had by all. Would love to hear impressions about Detroit from those who stayed downtown. Kind of jonesing to get to to MSU for a game after looking at all of the pictures and reading the threads this past weekend. Sadly it looks like my only chance this year will be on the 28th against OSU and that's a hell to the nope.
  3. Yeah that's a big thumbs up. I was thinking more that there was some chatter about the keeper rules and I'm fine with them. Or changing them. Looking forward to NBA!
  4. Gus's is a chain, no? I mean it's good and all but you could have gone to the one on Woodward before you left. I saw one in Mesa a couple of weeks ago.
  5. Are we running this back? I'm fine with changes or no changes.
  6. Assholes made me order Buddy's for lunch. So much for the gym off day.
  7. I've done that drive a few times. It sucks. I saw the world's biggest cuckoo clock in Ohio. It appears to have moved from 20 years ago. https://visitsugarcreek.com/visit-the-worlds-largest-cuckoo-clock.html
  8. Why does the Arizona coach have a necklace of palm leaves?
  9. Unc, Midwest girls love to get the kitty licked. They also appreciate dudes who are up front with them.
  10. Any of you all staying downtown, if you're celebrating and alcohol is involved, I highly encourage you to stop in Lafayette Coney for late night eats and shenanigans.
  11. Hook em If you are the gambling type and in for the game Fan Duel has a 50% profit boost on any wager -200 or worse on the Texas game, max $50. You could cook up a pretty nice parlay if you wanted to do something a bit more risky.
  12. I read some FF nerds thread on Twitter today who rewatched every Andrew's snap that KC chose to bracket him all game and it will not be the norm fwiw
  13. The weather is going to suck for you guys. I was really hoping you would get some beautiful early fall football weather. Cold front coming in on Friday and bringing rain. Probably going to be grey, cold and rainy on Saturday.
  14. Ain't nobody got time to lose 40 lbs when you have little kids.
  15. Sweet! You know I'm going to have some unsolicited advice for you. Tomorrow is the annual bridge walk on the Mac bridge. I'm not sure what your schedule is like but I would try to avoid it, it will be a disaster. Check out Castle Rock on St. Ignace on the UP side of the bridge. It's a hokey tourist trap but your boy will probably dig taking a picture with the giant Paul Bunyan and climbing up to the lookout. The local delicacy is a pasty. It's just a meat pie with gravy and vegetables but people love them up there for some reason. Avoid Mackinaw City. The island is pretty touristy and not my favorite thing and Mac City is like a cheaper more touristy version but without horses. The best part of the State imo is the Northern lower in the summer. Petoskey, Chalevoix, Traverse City, Torch Lake, Harbor Springs, Glen Arbor all beautiful. Stuff for kids to do in most of the above. Shorts brewery is in Bellaire on Torch Lake. Dockside is a burger bar with a nice patio on the lake and fun to watch the boats pull up and go by. There is an indoor water park and new giant Sky bridge with a view at Boyne Mountain. You might already see some fall colors this time of year. If you only have time to do one stop I would do Traverse City or Petoskey. Both great towns with plenty to do. Traverse City has a better beach and beach facilities. There is also a strip in Acme on your way into TC that has hokey shit for the kids. Pirate's Cove Adventure golf, zip lines etc. Don's drive inn for burgers and milkshakes. Oh and Sleeping Bear dunes. You will be shocked that Michigan has scenery that looks like that. Have fun!
  16. Spread opens up at Texas -3.5/-4
  17. Definitely Ricks. Make sure you order the shrimp. Kidding I have no idea these days. @choripan should be able to help.
  18. Nice. I found another league to join but if there's interest here and we can get 8 or 10 more I'll do this one, too.
  19. I don't expect there to be much interest, the last one we did died. But I was thinking I would like to be in another league so I figured I would throw it out there. $100 PPR? Post if you're interested. We could go to $50 if it were preferable.
  20. The Whitney is haunted, too. Very cool place. https://www.audacy.com/wwjnewsradio/news/local/the-hauntings-of-the-whitney-detroits-spookiest-restaurant
