  1. So, any GoT people out there. Who should I bet on to sit on the Iron Throne at the end of season 8. It's up on my book.

      I don't have any idea but can you post the odds?

  2. Could someone with better board searching skills find the thread I started about games we have attended

  3. Anyone really familiar with KC?  My wife, kids (age 8) and I are staying at "The Plaza" area over New Years.  Is there anything to do besides shop and swim at the hotel, the weather is supposed to be cold!  Any ideas or suggestions?

      For BBQ on the plaza it's hard to go wrong with Jack Stack. KC people always argue about the best in town but Jack Stack is easily top 5 and it's a nice place. Union Station and Crown Center are a short drive straight North and have kid friendly activities. Science City, Lego land, ice skating, planetarium, and an aquarium that isn't worth the money to get in.

  4. Are you guys watching Nebraska on Saturday or UCF?

      I'll be watching to see if Saquon can top Melvin Gordon's record from a few years ago.

  6. Electric smoker, yea or nay?

      If you're going electric then one of the good Masterbuilts is the way to go. Brinkman makes a cheap one and it's a POS.

  7. Valentinos. Severely overrated.

  8. The refs are out to get us, just like espn, cbs, fox, and everyone one else! It's us against the world!!!!

      The refs don't make the dumb rules, they just enforce them.

  9. I've had my first ever puppy for about 24 hours now. Poop for days.

  10. And the best hot dog on the market is....?

      The dogs and sausages off the rollers at QuikTrip are pretty fantastic.

  11. So ...that was not great goalkeeping.

  12. Going down to the K tomorrow to watch my Red Sox take on the Champs. Do I need to get tix now or can I just wing it and get them at the ballpark? It's Game 2 of the doubleheader, btw.

      You shouldn't have trouble getting tickets on a week night.

  13. I watched The Martian the other night. I was bored out of my skull. Is that normal?

    1. Whistlebritches

      Whistlebritches

      It wasn't great. I wouldn't call it a bad movie and the visuals were pretty awesome but I don't think I'd recommend seeing it.

  14. For the love of God, if people are going to try to be cute by bastardizing the names of Eichorst, Riley, Langsdorf, Banke4, Pederson, Callahan, etc., could we at least agree to stick to one version? I've seen 4,000 too many failed attempts at being cute, clever, or funny. Just. Stop.

      It's not even the off-season yet and this place is barely worth visiting because of a few posters.

  15. What kind of record would Alabama have without Henry? Probably the same record it has now. What kind of record would Stanford have without McCaffrey? Last year, they were 8-5 - McCaffrey had just 42 carries.

    1. Whistlebritches

      Whistlebritches

      This is the first year in a while where Alabama's starting RB is clearly their best option at RB.

  16. Crap. Was anyone else hoping Alabama would get Oklahoma in the first round?

    1. Whistlebritches

      Whistlebritches

      That's the marquee matchup they want in the finals. Wasn't going to happen in the first round.

  17. just received the bowl ticket request form in the mail, does anyone have an idea what the different figures in the cost column are? is that for diffferent levels of seating? For example, the Armed Forces Bowl has $50, $0, $75, and $175.

    1. Whistlebritches

      Whistlebritches

      Unless it's really important for you to have certain seats you could definitely get away with not buying tickets in advance. Bowl games for 6-6 teams don't sell out and you should have no problem finding people practically giving away tickets near the day of the game.

  18. Okay...lets hear them! Plans for the Husker-Purdue game?

      Get score updates on my phone while I'm on the golf course. I'm done scheduling my Saturdays around when we play.

  19. Considering re-gripping my own golf clubs. Anyone done this before? Doesn't seem too hard but want to get some opinions before I do.

    1. Whistlebritches

      Whistlebritches

      I did it for the first time last season and it was really pretty easy after the first club. The only thing I had a hard time with was getting the grip lined up with a neutral club face. Watch a couple youtube videos and have at it.

  20. Ratings are in and the College Football Playoffs were a smashing success. Look for a six- or eight-team format by 2020.

      Lets see how the semis turn out next year when they're on New Years Eve.

  21. Wish they'd do that format more often where they have a panel of coaches commenting on a game. 1000% better than announcers. It's like a graduate level college course on college football. Awesome!

      You guys convinced me to give it a try. This is awesome.

  22. Cleaning out my parents basement to get ready for their move and I found a 1996 copy of Oregon Trail. Looks like I won't be productive for the rest of the day!
