Sharkbait’s Cocktail of the Week: Annual Cider Experiment

Sharkbait - October 18, 2024October 18, 202472

Hooray for Friday! I had an idea to do some experimenting and make my own drink this week involving apple cider because why not? Checking my master spreadsheet where I track all of these posts, I see that I've been doing cider cocktail experiments around this time of year before.

Bub Means Represent! Your Broncos/Saints Thursday Night Football Open Thread

scotchnaut - October 17, 2024163

It's week 7 already and no, I won't be talking about Payton going back to Who Dat? Land or whatever they call it-you'll hear far too much of that. Why yes, I did pick up Bub Means in Math Hard! because I love playing three-dimensional chess (snorts) and I don't want anyone

CFL Beat: Week 20

The Maestro - October 17, 2024October 16, 202428

A quiet week for general CFL stories to share. We'll cut right to the chase and jump straight into it, I think. In league news this week: It looks like Ottawa may have starting QB Dru Brown back this week against Toronto; he suffered what's believed to be an ankle injury

Wumbo Wednesday With Weaselo: Fun Violinist Stories!

Senor Weaselo - October 16, 2024October 16, 202482

So, unfortunately, Senorita Weaselo was sick this weekend, meaning we couldn't go see Gil Shaham play Mendelssohn with the Phil. Which sucks. Because he's fantastic. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VQgjmMVqUPw Fun story! Actually two. Story 1: When I was a lad my youth orchestra went to go see him play I don't remember what. Anyway, we

DFOing Good

yeah right - October 16, 2024October 16, 202433

Good morning all. Due to a lack of regular Wednesday AM postage, I am here to step into the empty void and bring you a little bit of...absolutely nothing. If you're interested in being featured in a regular Wednesday post please feel free to let us know in the comments. So. In the

HAWT STOVE ACTION!: Tuesday Open Thread

The Right Reverend Electric Mayhem - October 15, 2024October 15, 202499

It's all coming together, bitches. Self-delusion isn't a mental illness in the NFL- it's a core value and bona fide occupational qualification. (Most) players and coaches intellectually know that the NFL is a closed system, a zero-sum game. All teams have real talent, all teams do a great deal of prep,

Subsequent GTD reflections

Game Time Decision - October 15, 2024October 14, 202437

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:Life is about choices.

Your Monday Night NFL Football Open Thread

scotchnaut - October 14, 2024October 14, 2024272

Hey, welcome back! If you liked uncompetitive games yesterday was your day! Of the 12 games played, 7 were decided by 18 or more points. Teams and players racking up points might be good for your fantasy teams but it didn't make for good watching though. Ah well, we soldier

Instant Hippo Thoughts – Week 6, 2024 Season

Reflections

King Hippo - October 14, 2024October 13, 202477

Some days, one just feels like monkeyshit. I wasn't hungover, I don't think actually sick, I DID remember to take my anti-crazy pills in the morning...so, who knows. Maybe just the pressure of living in this fucking Darkest Timeline. But STILL, I was up in time for MANDATORY WATCH DUTIES. What did we

Your Sunday Night NFL Football Open Thread

[Barry Manilow's "Looks Like We Made It" plays softly in the background] We got here you and I. Our eyes and butts are sore but it was worth it. Also, it would appear that the Bears, at long, long last, have a QB on their hands. The question remains, "How

This Train Keeps Rollin’-Your Afternoon NFL Slate of Games

scotchnaut - October 13, 2024October 13, 2024271

Surprisingly, not a lot of action on the west coast for this window but we'll be entertained nontheless. To The Games! Chargers/Broncos: Dobbins got out of the gate strong with 266 yards in the first two games but has only accrued 76 in his last two outings. Does he have a nagging injury
