Re: 2024 NFL MOCK DRAFT EXTRAVAGANZA
Read an article by Yahoo (Frank Schwab, not Bronto) that opined that the attitude displayed in the documentary excerpted in this tweet may have sunk Spencer Rattler’s draft stock (he went on the 5th round - much lower than many expected). https://twitter.com/pff_college/status/1566857917629874176?s=...

Re: What?? Are you drinking?
Normally, for liquor I’m partial to bourbon or rye. But, it’s a nice spring day here, and we’re drinking Negronis. Decent change of pace.

2 parts Campari

Re: Random Thoughts About Thoughts Random
So, the wife had a frustrating hard day and wanted Chinese takeout for dinner. We order and I go pick it up (a big deal as I rarely drive, being blind in one eye and having a bum shoulder). After I return, she opens up the boxes of food. I start loading my plate but I see she is upset, saying “One o...

Re: Random Thoughts About Thoughts Random
One thing I like about watching English soccer is that if the game is scheduled to start at 5:00, it starts at 5:00. Sports in the US (and Canada) never actually start at the advertised time. I was again reminded of this watching the NFL draft. Advertised to start at 5:00 PDT, the first pick went do...

I'm sad to see they changed the recipe. Here's a wrapper from the olden days that I found on the innerwebs, with peanut butter as a listed ingredient.

Re: 2023-2024 NHL Season
I blame the Colorado GM for their loss. They’ve got as much high-end talent as any team, and they out-shot Winnipeg two to one. But they couldn’t overcome their lack of a goalie. Not a new problem - it’s been there for a couple seasons, now. Management should have found a decent replacement by now.

The white-out thing they do in Winnipeg looks pretty cool on camera.
I think Anaheim does that in the playoffs, too. But it’s been a minute since the Ducks made the playoffs.
