Ballsy’s Mock Draft for 2024

ballsofsteelandfury - February 6, 2024February 5, 202425

Do not worry. I am not treading on Horatio's turf. I do enough of that with my AVN Awards prediction post. You will get no insights into which player each team is picking beyond me telling you that the Commanders are getting yet another disappointing USC QB and the Steelers will

scotchnaut - February 4, 202482

It's a Sunday without real football for the first time since forever. How are you going to cope? I might go see my nephew play hockey in the rockin' metropolis of Blind River! (mentioned in at least one Neil Young song and in a few novels I've read) Unless I

Premiership and Afrika – Togetherness Saturday

King Hippo - February 3, 2024February 2, 2024237

There being no NFL whatsoever, a man is grateful for a full EPL slate, along with the conclusion of the Afrikan Euros' Flacco Eight. Details? Here are a sparse few. Everton is your wake and bake, home to Spurs (7:30, USA). Richarlison returns to Goodison again, he will get a nice

TGIF! I was going to do a Groundhog Day spoof and just reuse last week's post with a new title and intro, but it's already been done. Survival - Personal Edition Today, we're going to learn how make a bow and some arrows. Why buy when you're surrounded by free wood? We're

The Carol of the Bowls

DFOing Good

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly - February 2, 2024January 31, 202417

Dry January has come to an end, and with it, the sobriety of many. I always thought that Dry January was silly; this year I came up with what I thought would be a more productive alternative: try to stay sober for at least one seven-day stretch per month. But

Sharkbait’s cocktail of the Week: Farewell to the Bar

Sharkbait - February 2, 2024February 1, 202441

Before we begin, don't worry. This "bar" isn't going anywhere. This is a tribute of sorts to a great bar that is no longer. Up until late last month, there was a bar in the Seaport area of Boston that was called Drink. What made it great was that it

Senor Weaselo - January 31, 2024January 31, 202491

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=abdAMwgMWPo&themeRefresh=1 I do a lot of driving. Like, a lot. Like, due for a 5,000 mile oil change, and I got the car at the end of October. Like, over 1800 miles in January. Such is the life of a freelance musician, who is also in a medium-distance relationship, and is

DFO does 1957

Game Time Decision - January 31, 2024January 31, 202457

From the game thread on Sunday between the 49'ers and the Lions, many, many jokes and/or comments were made about how long it's been since the Lions had won a road playoff game, mainly lead by our esteemed Dok. So instead of putting them into a massive comments post, I've
