  1. For those of you who like social deduction games (Secret Hitler, The Resistance, Avalon, Mafia/Werewolf), Scape Goat is an excellent low player social deduction game that flips the normal hidden role mechanic on its head. It plays extremely well at low player counts that other social deduction games fall apart at, too. And it's like $15-$20. Definite recommendation.

    Still funny to me that Saban has Mike Stoops as an analyst at Bama -- does Bobby have pics/dirt on Saban??

    😋

    Per multiple sources, Mike knows a lot about defense. If you lock him in a room and tell him to watch film and help with game planning, he's probably got some use other than eating any leftover bags of dicks you have around. He's also a huge bully/coward, so I suspect his raging asshole tendencies tend to come out less around people he considers his peers, and he's got Saban as a moderating influence. In that vacuum, hiring him probably does make a lot of sense to Sark.

    Unfortunately, Mike is spectacularly bad at literally every other aspect of being a coach, and it doesn't speak super well of Sark that he doesn't realize "knows football" and "good coach" are two different things.

    I love you, ctj, but this seems a tab bit excessive. He's hired great at every single position so far. I don't think trying to bring in Stoops is some black mark that should forever be held against him. I'd imagine some thought exactly the same way about Sark as we do about Stoops at some of the stops he was brought into after USC. 

    There's a huge difference between bringing Sark - considered a good coach and possibly sober alcoholic - into Bama's established halfway house for wayward coaches as analyst and bringing Stoops - a raging asshole and shitty coach - into a place you're trying to get started off on the right foot as an actual coach.

    It's particularly troubling if you take into account that he/CDC were told, "Not just no, but fuck no," and tried to do it anyway.

  4. Learn your zip code and quarterback's full name. You never know when you might need them.

    Explain to your wife that airplane doors should always remained closed during flight.

    If a player is shitty at football, it's okay not to play them, even if they're in the schematically appropriate position and seem nice and have tried really hard during practice and are older than their potential replacements.

    Welp since we’re saddled with Mensa next year and we all know how to smoke and correctly slice a brisket could I get thoughts on the best methods for cooking Brussels sprouts? Had some at Longhorn Steakhouse a year or so ago that really turned me on and have been feverishly attempting to replicate something similar. Thanks in advance for serious replies.

    Fry them.

    Or if you're looking for something a little less labor intensive and brassica-newbie friendly, I suggest these oven roasted sprouts.

    This isn’t fucking food. Not unless you made extremely poor life choices in life and were served this in prison. 

    This is such a remarkably shitty take I assume you just forgot to log into your futureman account.

    I am the only member of my family who does not reside in Texas. I wanted to visit them this year, but it is not looking likely because of COVID. I usually decorate early for the holidays, but I started earlier this year (A month ago) because 2020 has just had so much sad news that I wanted to be able to pour some energy into something positive. I have been somewhat deliberate and have taken my time putting up decorations in my apartment, but I am to the point where it is time to get some lights and garland put up around the ceiling and then add the tree the day after Thanksgiving. The kitchen and bathroom are almost done as far as decorations go. A Christmas shower curtain should be arriving this afternoon. I would love for my mom to be here in East Harlem to celebrate the holidays, but it is not safe for her at all to get out and be around people. She lives outside the small town I grew up in and has my brother, his girlfriend and her first granddaughter there with her so she will have a good holiday season with them, which is great.

    To those of you who can use COVID as a valid excuse this year to not visit relatives you do not want spoiling your holidays, awesome. To those who are going to somehow be forced to see some of them anyhow, well, good luck with all that and be nice to your drunk, crazy uncle and his lizard people conspiracy! 

    This is a very wholesome post for something that made me think, "Wait, did I click on the Wives and the Stupid Shit They Say/Do thread?"

    We have a billion WRs even without them, 4 TEs, and 3 RBs.   It’s beyond fucking retarded to play a 150 pound non-threat walk on at any of our skill positions.  This is even dumber than when he blew a Maryland game by making Garrett Gray our go to receiving target.

    I dunno. That was pretty fucking dumb.

  9. I opened this thread over 20 minutes after it was posted, and no one had replied. No one had questioned OP's taste in food, life choices, or reasons for living in the middle of fucking no where, PA.

    No one had even fucked his mom.

    On behalf of lurkers everywhere, I am extremely disappointed.

    I think this is the right call for all three. Mehringer is useless, but the other two potentially have value in reduced roles. Hoping we see something still on Warehime.

    They're locking all the restrooms in Bellmont before they let him know the news.
