I searched for this (Unis thread, NFL offseason thread, this one) and couldn't find anything. Apparently Eric Dickerson tried to get them to change it but was unsuccessful. https://nypost.com/2020/04/06/eric-dickerson-fails-in-quest-to-change-rams-new-penis-logo/ https://scontent.fphl2-4.fna.fbcdn.n...

Marlowe Stoudamire, 43. Nice little article on him in The Athletic for those who have it, but for those who don't, from NHL.com: https://www.nhl.com/news/detroit-mourns ... -316418532

Maybe worthy of his own thread, but I won't start one, but Hank Steinbrenner, co-owner of the Yanks, 63.

I think its either Harris or someone "unknown", as in probably never mentioned in this thread or the swamp at all. I've seen Marcia Fudge's name out there but 45 seconds on her wiki page says that one is impossible. I’d be surprised if it’s anyone other than Klobuchar, Harris or Whitmer. ...

2006? That seems like my heyday of Swamp death announcements. Yet I don't remember that either.

My first name was always too popular and my last name would either be preceded by "grass", used as a euphemism for toilet, or I'd get asked if I was related to Dennis. So I often would make up names for myself, with the main ones I remember being Arthur Lovett and Thaddeus Covington. I've ...

Carol Channing..97...pretty good run Back when I was a kid, she was one of those celebrities who were ubiquitous. Talk shows, game shows, variety shows, tours of musicals...

On the old board years ago, yes, I was jhiphop. I changed it on this Board because something got messed up when I signed up. Plus, I always thought it was too close to the legendary JPops.

I know this is not a new song, but does it drive anybody else crazy that Hamilton Leithauser + Rostam's album/song last year was "A 1000 Times" instead of "A Thousand Times" or "1000 Times"? (I can't imagine this was brought up upthread, but I did not go through 32 page...

I always used to blast Offspring's Bad Habit before games to pump me up, but not sure a song that ends with "You stupid, dumb shit, god damn motherfucker" would be appropriate in a stadium.

So who's supposed to join, HDO or ljam?

Oh, and I'll probably be there for the draft now. Should be winding down the weekend by then.

Reaper

I know I pretty much never post anymore, but glad to be back. I would not be adverse to a draft date change since the 29th doesn't work for me either, but I'll set up for auto draft if it stays. Never been in a 20-team league before. Should be interesting.

Sorry, brian. The other guy is getting on my nerves, so I'm trying to take down his bully status. I'm just hoping you didn't have Aces beat. If you had jammed earlier, I probably would've folded, but I didn't think you were strong because you didn't.

Reaper

Brian now at my table. I had a slow two or three weeks, but then had a run of strong hands, knocked out two more people (7 total now), and am back up to 2nd out of exactly 300 people as I type this.

For many years, by multiple individuals in various groups, somebody would inevitably call me Egon, commenting that I looked like him. I never liked it. I'm not exactly sure why; whether I disliked the name itself, I thought of Egon as ugly, or I just didn't see the resemblance, I don't know. I just ...

Ah, dammit. Scottie's right. I misremembered this the same way twice in the last 4 months now.

I'm now up to 2nd place in the tourney after calling a bluff on one hand (with only a pair of 5s myself), and then a double knockout with pocket Aces that held up.

There are some challenges for this show to meet. I can't think of a successful cop comedy outside of Barney Miller Police Squad . Not successful, but should've been. This is the best cop show I remember from my generation: The Job http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0272980/" onclick="window.open...

I own two suits, with three of those that I consider my good suits that were actually tailored, one of them from Men's Wearhouse. I don't plan on over spending a "high-end" suit until I start seeing the majority of the attorneys that I do work for actually care about what they wear. As it ...

Got Hamels v. Strasburg down in D.C. today, and got pretty much what I expected, Cole still not getting a lead since the beginning of April. Though going to games with an 18-month old means I'm missing a lot of the game. I rarely get up more than once during a game, but I pretty much missed innings ...

Finally paid up, keg, on both fronts. Staying for the Brew Crew.
