The NFL is adopting the same failed safety precautions that MLB is choking on right now - for a full-contact sport, with many more players, during a time of the year when the virus spreads more easily, with fans. Owners and Goodell only care about money, so don’t they want the league to stay running?  I can’t for the…

We’ve settled on a handful of staples (bolognese, pad thai, enchiladas, etc.) but every Saturday I sit down with my massive pile of old Cook’s Illustrated and Milk Street magazines and find one recipe for the week that I’ve never made before.  I have rarely been disappointed.

Packing my own lunch every day and not having a communal donut box or cookie plate lingering around the conference room has been very beneficial to my paunch.

This is very true. I use more than that, but nowhere near 100lbs. Books like Flour, Water, Salt, Yeast by Ken Forkish would have you using 100lbs to feed your starter every year, and that’s because his recipes are huge, and he expects you to be baking almost every day (i.e. no refrigerating your starter).  

For the pussy-ass bitch in the white house:

You might be right, but just because someone isn’t convicted of 2nd degree murder doesn’t mean they walk free. 3rd degree murder certainly seems like a lesser included offense of 2nd degree murder. https://www.law.cornell.edu/wex/lesser_included_offense

Cutting off one’s nose to spite their face.  The antithesis of self-awareness.  Trump 2020.

Sour cream and onion Pringles. It was a complete impulse on my last pandemic grocery run, and I grabbed a few cans simply because I recognized them. They’re really good!

The tall boy of Coors Light is closed.  That is all I have to contribute here.

Love this list, but it needs to include cumin.  Whether you’re cooking Indian, Mexican, African, Middle Eastern, whatever - gotta have plenty on hand.

I brought a Hydro Flask full of wine to The Force Awakens on opening night. I was in the back of the theater and accidentally kicked the bottle over during a very quiet part of the movie. It loudly rolled the entire length of the theater floor until it hit the front.  My wife doesn’t let me take booze to movies…

You can get a good look at a Jedi by sticking your head up a Sith’s ass, but I’d rather take Abrams’ word for it.

Hot mother fucking toddys

Touching Meaty Surfaces was the name of my high school band!

Instead of jail time, judges should start sentencing defendants to watch the Bengals v. Dolphins game on December 22nd.

Kinda crazy how little pressure there seems to be on this team, even though they’re pretty damn good. The Western Conference playoffs are going to be great this year.

If the Orioles extend the nets, but there’s no one in attendance to be protected, does the foul ball make a sound?

Really hoping the Cubs come out and pummel the Cardinals this weekend, now that they’re out of it. Also, watching a beer-soaked Uecker dancing and being treated like a fellow player warms my heart.

“I have faith in our defense” is also a tried and true coaching excuse/scapegoat for punting the ball away while down multiple scores in the 4th quarter.

The Brewers have been fun to watch this season, but also disappointing at times, especially their pitching. Jimmy Nelson never came back, Corey Knebel tore his UCL right after opening day, and Woodruff strained his oblique in mid-July, after proving that he’s the team’s clear No. 1 starter.  Amazing they’re still…
