I apologize in advance for the litany of "Pickett's charge" memes we may be exposed to going forward. This isn't to say PICKETT'S GAHNTA SUPERBOWL all UrinatingTree style.

There's only two tilts today but thankfully the scheduling wizards didn't have them going at it at the same time. I like small victories. To The Games! Chefs/Saints: -Coach Allen maintains that most starters (minus Michael Thomas, natch) will make an appearance so that's nice. -So many folks slag on Derek Carr but his

TGIF! Football is back with almost a full schedule too! On a Friday! No doubt conditioning us for an almost full week of football from Thursday to Monday in the future. I, for one, will not fight this development. Survival - Personal Edition Unfortunately, that still leaves a few work days that

Sharkbait - August 11, 2023August 11, 2023

Hello and happy Friday once again. I'm still tinkering with the idea I put forth last week about going through the entire Gentleman's Companion. I haven't figured out how it would work yet, or if it's even a feasible idea. More research is clearly needed on the matter. In the

Welcome heroes and heroin! Before we dip our toes into the game intros let's scan the NFL news that is masquerading as a crimebeat report. -Henry Ruggs, people and dog murderer, was sentenced to between 3 to 10 years for his late night speeding escapade. Football talkers that lack perspective were

It is HOT AS BALLS in DC right meow (and as a general rule). And like a genius, I biked back from getting a haircut, which makes me a sweaty mess. HOWEVA, it also means I earned a drink. And wouldn't you know it, I have a fully stocked bar

TGIF! Football is back! Woah, sit down Pac-12, not you. But first, WWC has to wrap up starting Saturday. Since I have to bang this out one handed, and not in the fun way, let's get this over with. Survival - Personal Edition Alright, you've gotten yourself in a spot of trouble

Happy Friday once again! I've been thinking about this recurring column and how I can (pardon the pun) mix it up a little bit. Lately I've fallen back into the works of Charles H. Baker's Gentleman's Companion. A book about his experiences travelling the world and the drinks and stories that

Look, it's something approximating the football we all know and love and hate at varying times. One might think I put quite a bit of thought into my first game intro of the 23-24 season but y'all would be mistaken. Nope, the slapdashery shall continue unabated! I've not been fired yet
