Re: NFL Swampcrash 2023 - SWAMPER BOWL LET'S SAY VIII

I'll wait for someone to acknowledge that we didn't see any of this controversy in the Mother Humping Pro Bowl. Excellent point. JLo can run a full season next year. As difficult a decision to swap champions, I have to say, Ryan has given me (and presumably all of us) leeway or clarifications and c...

For some reason I had the Hawaiian Punch board game. The only thing I remember is that it came with playdough and a mold of a pineapple and a plastic Hawaiian Punch guy. When something happened, you got to use the plastic guy to smash your opponents playdough pineapple.
