    NFL 2018 - 2019 -- Watch America's favorite sport wither away and die

    This season sucks. AJ comes back and immediately gets hurt on a non contact injury. Fuck everything.

    I'd put Derek Trucks above him. Ian Thornley too. But y'know, they got a few decades on Duane.

    Yeah they definitely don't cater to the metal guitars. I don't even know if I saw an Ibanez. Then again, are vintage Ibanezes even a thing? It was definitely my kinda jam though.

    While in Nashville for business I stopped by Carter Vintage Guitars. What a guitar shop! Probably the best I've ever been to. Little soundproof jam rooms with vintage amps stacked to the ceiling so you can really test the gear and an amazing selection. Found a Taylor 714 I loved. Always...

    Went to Wendy's at the Nashville airport and tried the Bacon Maple Chicken. When I ordered it the large black woman asked me if I wanted original, spicy, or grilled chicken. I of course opt for spicy. After the order was entered someone from the kitchen said that the sandwich is only supposed to...

    We also know outlier performances when we see them. Even our shit tier franchises look good every once in a while.

    Cowboys need to score more than 13 points reliably. Dak is not good. He won't get Dilfer'ed with this team.

    Vietnamese is lame compared all the other southeast Asian cuisines. I also happen to be in Nashville right now. Went to this joint called The Stillery tonight and tried their Nashville hot chicken. That didn't fuck around! I was crying and sweating but I enjoyed every minute of it...

    Though this is generally true the hottest Thai food I've ever had was a yellow curry. I had to use so many napkins to wipe sweat off my forehead and dry my tears.

    Are those two different proposals? The Coliseum one looks terrible. Definitely onboard with the plan by Alameda.

    Bengals are fucking sad. How have they won five games? Season started out looking so promising but an AJ-less offense can't keep up with our shitastic defense. I'm going to see a slaughter in LA in two weeks.

    2018-2019 NBA Thread

    Warriors are a 6-seed at best without Curry and Green. This has been some lackluster basketball these past few games. It's amazing how much more of a difference Curry makes to the team. Warriors without Durant are still easily the best team. Warriors without Curry fall quite a few spots.

    Bioware's "Anthem"

    You think this is true for all games? Because I think many of the best games I've ever played have come out on the latest generation. Witcher 3, Horizon Zero Dawn, God of War. And RDR2 hasn't been too shabby either.

    I'm not surprised. Ever watch Silicon Valley? That show is barely satire. People get fucking hung up on shit like tabs vs spaces. It's a field full of aspies.

    I discovered this gin in Iceland and it's some of the best shit I've ever had. I drink it on the rocks it's so good. Don't mix it at all. Bought two bottles from the duty free shop at the airport and I'm already out of one bottle. I'll definitely be seeking this one out on Whisky Exchange...

    I can dig a White Russian time to time. Just got back from a vacation in Iceland and we went to this bar in Reykjavik called Lebowski Bar. Had a full blown White Russian menu. We had to try a few.

    Waited way too late to buy tickets to the Bengals-Chargers game. Should have bought them at the beginning of the season before people thought the Chargers were good. Oh well, we're front row near an end zone. Will be cool to see an NFL game in such a small stadium.

    You get any good photos of the lights, @Hex? I have a decent camera but knew nothing about how to best capture the lights until too late. After seeing how great my pics came out for the lame display on Saturday night I'm bummed I didn't know the same tactics earlier in the week. Because we...
