Monday Morning Mock Draft: Looks Like I Won’t Be The Only Thing Not Aging Well This Week!

Greetings to you all, but this week especially to those of us of a certain age, specifically those of us who had our formative years in the '80's.  It was a strange time in America, one where Ronald Reagan had us on the road to the absolutely fantastic, 10/10, no

I don't know why the phrase, "Omigod you're going to make me watch Italian cinema!" pops into my head right now. God Bless You, 2Pack! And God bless those gorgeous Italian ladies... So, aside from insanely hot Europeans, what is there to talk about? Current Events This week culminated with Trump telling the Ukrainian

INT. RECORDING STUDIO – DAY Once again, all the lights are off in the studio, and it's completely silent.  The studio lights come on... ...and in the hallway that leads to the studio a series of frantic footsteps can be heard.  --- [DOOR FLIES OPEN] --- HUNTER RENFROW: [tossing his bike helmet and backpack

Golf Tales Volume 1 – Part 4

Balls stared out the window of his office in one of high-rise buildings in DTLA. It was mid-morning, and, for some reason, the marine layer was sticking around.  Normally, it receded to the beach communities until around noon when it went away completely, but it was thick in DTLA and

Substitute Teacher Bonus Cocktail Hour!

  Looks like the content mines are a little empty, so here's a turd I polished something I had in drafts that I finished up really quickly.  Good morning, boys and girls. Here at DFO, we don't recommend/encourage morning drinking, but we are happy to share creative ideas for those who wish

Wumbo Wednesday With Weaselo: Nothing As Fun This Week

Yeah, sorry. Not feeling it today. Nocturnes lost a heartbreaker last night (Claude Sellers went 7 2/3 shutout, then double-single-IBB, walk on a 16, shutout gone, Sellers out, Phillips in, walk, tie game. Bottom 9: single, walk-off homer, ballgame) and let's just say things going on that I hope are

Subsequent GTD reflections

Hello there fellow DFO'er.  Hope you're well today.  And thanks for coming back to see last weeks tl;dr of last week as decided by my brain.  There's no reason as to why some comments make it and others don't. Seriously. There isn't. This weeks cheesy motivational quote is:The influence of a

Monday Evening Open Thread – Trench Crusade the War of Heaven and Hell on Earth

Howdy everyone!  I will be attempting to fill the void that is Monday Night, the end of the worst day of the week. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h81Ojd3d2rY How apropo that the best song about Mondays is sung by such a degenerate as John Philips.  And I am well aware of which side he would be

Monday Morning Mock Drafts: One Hit Wonders

No, we're not doing musical one-hit numbers.  That's Request Line territory, and has probably already done.  Nope, today you're drafting athletic one-hit wonders.  Guys, or gals, who had that one (or no more than a couple) of really good seasons before fading into, as Mike Tyson would say, Bolivia. The reason

Another golf double-header for me this weekend. I played in a tournament today and I've got another one tomorrow. Today's tourney was a standard scoring type while tomorrow's is a unique format I've never played: A one-man scramble. Apparently, you get to hit every shot twice (except you can only
