Dirk


Did his reputation get better?? Used to only hear horror stories about him.


Never heard these horror stories. Met Dirk in a bar once after a game. He signed my game ticket and was nice enough. He seemed shy if anything.

Charles Barkley. Really personable and polite.

Seahawks one sack against a 44-year old grandpaw who was watching games on his couch last week and also losing the game! WTF?

Wow. That's pretty sad. Brisset's not available? Assuming that's a no, I'd go with Bryce.

Wow. Good for you! So many Thursday night games are fantasy duds. You really lucked out.

The lowest my oven will go is 170°. I kept the food in there while I was finishing everything up and some of it started to get soggy.


Would not use paper towels for this.

For fish, I lay a large brown paper sack (like from the grocery store) on it's side and put the fish on it then into the oven until it's time to eat.

For chicken, I just leave it on the plate--no paper towel, no brown paper sack. Fried chicken is good without keeping it warm.

Hush puppies--same as chicken, but also okay to thrown onto the sack in the oven with the fish.

For pickles, would serve as an appetizer when they are fresh out of the grease.

For fries, time them to be the last thing done and put them on the table right out of the grease.

Tony Pollard wasting away on my bench all season. Goes off today, but I didn't start him. :wah:

I need 50 out of Puka to have a chance at the playoffs.

Hope he gets all the catches because I'm going against Christian Watson this week.

Charbonet is a terrible running back. Seahawks go up, sit KWIII and Charb gets the garbage time TD. Terrible.

Just in case you get a commission, I bought one. Discount with Black Friday code.

Hope he likes it. Also, do you have any peppercorns you recommend? Are they all the same?

Thanks for the idea.

Quarterback Max Brosmer starting for Vikings this week. Per ESPN,

quote:

The Minnesota Vikings will start quarterback Max Brosmer in Sunday's game at the Seattle Seahawks, coach Kevin O'Connell confirmed Friday, as J.J. McCarthy remains in the concussion protocol.

Brosmer, an undrafted rookie who spent his final college season at the University of Minnesota, opened training camp as the Vikings' No. 4 quarterback. At 24, he is two years older and has twice as much college experience as McCarthy. The Vikings were impressed with Brosmer's quick processing skills during training camp, and he beat out veteran Brett Rypien for the No. 3 job.

Glad I'm not playing against that Mahomes-Rice stack. Yikes!

Seeing the same with Athletic reporting that Jones did not look as fluid as normal in practice.

This blows. I was planning to play Pierce this week, but this report makes me uncomfortable, especially facing the Texans D.

Sorry to all the Mayfield owners. I was the idiot who sat the Rams and played the Seahawks v. Titans instead. SMH.

This is just great. My fantasy season could not get more unlucky at this point.

Do better, Ja'Marr. Seriously, do better.
