    Movies currently in theaters - Worth going? Stay home? Rent later?

    I thought we had a thread for this at one time. :shrug: Anyway... I got free tickets to see an advanced screening of The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare last night. Generally I liked it. From the trailers it seems like it should be a action movie. But since it's a Guy Ritchie film it's...

    What should be the new Minnesota State flag?

    Minnesota has followed the usual "We did this by committee so there are no good options to choose from" process, so here we are. The upside is that it's replacing the existing Pawnee-esque flag. So which is your choice? Design 2100 - Blue with star on top, white separator, green below...

    D'Andre Swift - continues to miss significant practice time with a sore groin

    Word is that while he's suited up almost every day, he's rarely participated in 7-on7 or 11-on-11 work. I think Swift has been an easy avoid for quite some time - including rookie drafts last year He's not that big. He was injured his last year at Georgia. He got injured last year in Detroit -...

    18 game schedule, week 14 byes, and the effect on FFB playoffs

    With the added game this year, there are actually 18 weeks to the regular season schedule. The big monkey wrench occurs in week 14 - where there are four teams on byes.  IMO - In fairness, every team's players should have to have a bye week. Shouldn't the regular fantasy season be 14 weeks and...

    Bengals unveil new uniforms...I think.

    Pass or fail: Bengals unveil new uniforms, which look a lot like their old uniforms Queue up Vanilla Ice explaining the difference between Ice Ice Baby and Under Pressure.

    ***Music 1982 Top 100*** - Ranked by sum of artist output - TOP FIVE, HERE WE GO!!!: 5. Peter Gabriel, 4. Tom Petty, 3. John Mellencamp, 2. Toto, 1. I

    Disclaimer: My musical tastes were developed as a kid that grew up on a dirt road (no seriously, I did) on Rural Route One in Kragnes, Minnesota - which is ten miles north of Moorhead, which is itself the pimple on the butt of the non-descript city of Fargo, ND. So I can neither consider myself...

    Non-ppr Swift/Chase/#8/#14 or N. Harris/Higgins/McLaurin

    Trade on the table. I give Swift, 1.8, 2.2 and I get McLaurin and Tee Higgins. I have the 1.1 so the option under consideration is whether it's better to take Harris or Chase there. Forgetting about value for a second, which roster construction would you rather have? I'm leaning toward Set B...

    Fire Detectors/Alarms - Wired or Battery? Smart or dumb?

    Our alarms are a little older than 10 years. Okay, a lot. So it's probably time to replace them. Is there any real reason to get smart alarms other than everything seems to be made smart these days just because? Shouldn't I just get a 6-Pack of First Alert hardwired smoke alarms for $60 and be...

    Team reviews/previews - needs, schemes, player turnover, etc.

    NBC Sports Edge (the artist formerly known as Rotoworld) are doing an excellently written series of articles - 2021 Off-season Team Previews. I really recommend the read. They're going team by team highlighting the likely free agent turnover, scheme changes (if new coaching staff), draft needs...

    2021 Mock Draft 2nd attempt on 2/1 - WITH TRADES!!

    1. NY Jets - Trevor Lawrence QB Clemson - Jets should not trade out of this pick even for the proverbial "all the tea in China". 2. Jacksonville - Justin Fields QB Ohio St. - They could entertain a trade out if they get a haul, but probably shouldn't.  3. Cincinnati - Penei Sewell OT Oregon -...

    Dynasty philosophy: Why don't people "go for it"?

    I don't get why teams that are in the playoffs, and thus will have late 1st draft picks, don't use those picks more often to shore up the weak spots in their rosters for a run for the title. Here's a specific example: Guy headed for the playoffs will have something  like the 9th or 10th pick...

    Teams revealing new unis - TB and ATL. Indy tweaks their brand. Browns' are brown. SD holds the line. Rams get it right.

    TB got it mostly right. Atlanta failed. Those pewter jerseys are cool. And getting rid of the clock numbers was an obvious call. Atlanta failed in just about every way. A gradient jersey? WTH? https://www.ajc.com/sports/football/falcons-new-uniforms-released-today/N9awJXQFtfSHSZIuL3Ah3J/

    Shark Pool collective mock draft - complete. And any one of us are better than Ryan Pace!

    There isn't a large population in the Pool these days, so I suggest taking three teams each. If someone wants in after that I'm sure people wouldn't mind giving up a spot. We'll go two rounds do start and if he hasn't fizzled out by then, talk about going further. I don't care if it's what you...

    Two leagues, three top 10 picks each - what's the best sequence to go?

    Two different Zealots IDP leagues. Both in "start over" mode. I know things will change depending on landing spots, but generically speaking which way would be the best to go with the first two picks? League 1 NON-PPR - I'm in decent shape with the WR spot having Sutton, Chark, McLaren...

    Time wasters the NFL needs to end

    1. The on-air coin flip. Just do it off the field in a room somewhere. Have the team's elections written down or something. Enough of a) these silly controversies because of some mumble mouth or deaf ref and b) wasting the viewers' time with something so trivial. 2. Explanation of declined...

    M. Thomas for Kyler/Fournette

    My QB combo of Garoppolo/Rivers is making me nervous. Is it a fair offer of giving Thomas to get Kyler/Fournette? Depends on your feelings towards the latter, I suppose.

    Zealots IDP PPR - M Thomas for Bell/2020 1st

    Give: Michael Thomas Get: Le'Veon Bell/2020 1st The 1st would come from the worst team in the league last year. I was the highest scoring team in the league and suffered a narrow loss in the championship. My current RB core players are Davonta Freeman, David Johnson, Lindsay, Hopkins, Adams...
