If this game
ends after ‘Tim and Eric Awesome Show! Great Job’ ends, that’ll really be a shame.
Maybe in order to understand mankind, we have to look at the word itself: "Mankind". Basically, it's made up of two separate words—"mank" and "ind". What do these words mean? It's a mystery, and that's why so is mankind.

I kind of hated to do it on principle

I'm in downtown LA and somehow I didn't feel it
but my roommate in the next room did
it was really weirdly subtle.
like, i was sitting pretty still and i noticed it, but my wife in the shower didn’t. we have this suspended votive holder on one wall and i noticed it was swinging, and tha tthe hummingbirdfeeder outside was swinging and that iced it for me. but it was a really gentle rocking motion.

Sure he is.

except,
now, they obvy draft OL in 1st and 4th rounds. that’ll help.

Repeat after me
BEST. PLAYER. AVAILABLE.
Ozzie Newsome’s done pretty well drafting that way.

not the same as baseball
they need OL more than anything.
"I doubt he could reach [second base]...mostly cuz his fucking arm was in Aybar's nuts." – twistedlogic
Keep chasing need
and see how far that gets you.
Ravens draft BPA except for 2 times – Boller and Flacco. and that only worked 50% of the time.
"The moment you stop thinking you're the best, it's time for you to get out the game." -'King' Mo Lawal
Draft picks start!
You have to draft for need unless there’s an absolute stud that you’d be passing up.

You guys say that...
I’m just glad I’m a Ravens fan with a GM who knows how to draft.
"The moment you stop thinking you're the best, it's time for you to get out the game." -'King' Mo Lawal
I don't think there's a GM
in the league that doesn’t at least partially draft for need. The NFL is completely different than the MLB in that regard. Obviously if there’s a total stud at a position where you’re in good shape you draft him and figure it out later, but that’s not super common.
Rub some $100 bills on it, you sell-out. -duck
My team's had alot of sucess in the draft as well
And they draft for need somewhat often. Seems to work out well. I think it’s more about being a good talent evaluator than need vs best available. If they work out great, your team is better either way.
"You accept mediocrity and you get mediocrity." - Adam Jones, Son!
Football i'd go best available first
and then need is only a factor when you have two similarly rated guys. The bigger the need, the bigger gap in talent you may be willing to overlook.
But few rookies (and few football players in general) play 100% of plays either
You can get good production out of a rookie without having them being a full-time starter. Suh would look pretty nice in the Redskins D-line rotation, especially with as many plays as Haynesworth takes off.
Agree
football is different because draft pics have immediate impact.
Rub some $100 bills on it, you sell-out. -duck
yes.
Chris Samuels, for example.
And “best player available” is really not as easy to quantify in football as it is in baseball.
"I doubt he could reach [second base]...mostly cuz his fucking arm was in Aybar's nuts." – twistedlogic
I can see a lot of other options besides o-line.
One of the two top d-tackles could be fall, and eric berry will definitely be an option
i'd still go OL

Ever since they draft Kolb you could tell he and Reid have not been BFF.
And he took the draft-day booing too hard (it was a bunch of idiots, not the majority of fans).
But you have to admit
your typical eagles fan has not been as grateful for McNabb’s performance as they should be. And he takes a fucking beating in the media around there. If he looks like he’s having fun they say he doesn’t care, and then if he looks like he means business they say he’s brooding. The guy can’t win.

"I doubt he could reach [second base]...mostly cuz his fucking arm was in Aybar's nuts." – twistedlogic
For the right offer, i'd definitely pull the trigger
Guy’s inability to hit a curve ball prevents him from being untouchable

the fans he’s talking about don’t care about the right offer – they just don’t like Ryan Howard and want him gone. Same with mcnabb.

Sorry to be super OT
but a mouse just scuttled across my living room floor. I screamed, turned of the TV, and ran upstairs.
All my housemates are asleep. Camden Chat, WHAT DO I DO?
i have blacksnakes in my basement.
having mice means there are no snakes in your house.

Rub some $100 bills on it, you sell-out. -duck
I’ve had 3 bats, and I found them all while they were sleeping.
1 was hanging in my kitchen. I caught it in tupperware and tossed it oustide.
One was lying on the floor between the wall of the cat litterbox and the wall. I thought it was a stray cat turd. “Oh shit, it has a face.”
“Oh shit it’s a dead bat.”
“Oh shit, it’s alive.”
As it woke up, I ended up just grabbing it and tossing it out the window.
The third one was in a crevasse above my front door. I had the tupperware ready to trap it, but was ready to nail it with a tennis racket if it woke up and started flying in the house.
hahahaha
wait you grabbed the one with your hand???
“oh shit, it has a face.” that’s classic
Rub some $100 bills on it, you sell-out. -duck
I had my yardworking gloves on. On the (what I thought) off chance it was alive.
Later that same day I mowed my lawn and I found a snake outside the one corner of my house. I tried to move it away from the foundation with a rake and it ended up crawling up under the side corner of my siding, so i was grabbing its tail and trying to pull it out of my house.

There’s a wildlife control company that’s been working with me to “snake proof” my home.
They’ve missed spots where they’re getting in, and they feel bad about it so they’ve removed like the last 4 or 5 snakes for free, and they’re doing a bunch of work at no cost.
But there’s another guy right in town that I call if the one company can’t get out here soon enough. Last time he was here there was a snake in my basement up on one of the basement wall and he was just like “How attached are you this guy? You don’t mind if I pop a cap in him, do you?”
I don’t like the idea of shots being fired in my basement, so I asked if he’d try to remove it first, and was luckily successful.
how big are these snakes we're talking about?
a snake that you can actually shoot effectively seems like it would have to be kind of big no?

My dad shot a copperhead with a bb gun when I was 5 or so
he was a police marksman, but that was amazing
"You accept mediocrity and you get mediocrity." - Adam Jones, Son!
I’m terrified of them, so they’re all anacondas to me.
This particular one was enormous though. Like 7 feet.
I caught another one myself when my wildlife control guys were hours away. (This is my best snake story)
I was just taking some trash down to the cans in the basement and
about to empty the dehumidifiier when I saw this 5-ft blacksnake crawling up the corner wall of the basement. I knew if I didn’t get it then, it’d get away and my chances of catching it were not good but it would still be in my house. It was crawling around in the back corner of the “new” part of the basement (half my house is 100 years old) back by the water pump when I spotted, and I ran upstairs to get the phone and it was halfway up the wall, but stopped
moving when I returned. I called my pals at Wildlife Control Inc, and they wouldn’t be able to be out till 4 hrs later, but I was on the phone with the receptionist. Meanwhile, the snake is making very slow but visible progress up the corner of the wall, so i poke it with a broom handle. This makes it start climbing faster. I knock it off the wall, it
start climbing a pipe. I knock it off the pipe, it starts climbing an
electrical thing going down to a light switch. I knock it to the floor, and it, with slithery, evil, unimaginable speed, heads for the sump pump pipe. I can’t let it back in the wall to safety, I just can’t, so I wack it again, then it heads for the things it was climbing before. I wack it away from that. This thing is fast. Who will tire first, me or the snake? I had visions of having a heart attack and the snake eating my corpse.
So then I get a great idea. I wack it toward a long, empty box (from
the sump pump) that was in the basement. Miracle! it crawls in, and I was able to take it outside and dump it down the road.
holy fucking shit!
I thought you were going to say like 4 feet long and I was still going to be terrified. 7 feet long???? I don’t care how much money I’d lose on that house I’d sell that fucking place. I would never get a minute of sleep.
Rub some $100 bills on it, you sell-out. -duck
They’ve been in the basement and above the bedroom ceiling. Never in the living space of the house. That’s how I sleep at night.
I don’t sleep very well when I hear things slithering above at night.
A few years ago the brand new roof on the house was leaking and some tiles were missing and I came in the bedroom to find a blacksnake hanging from the ceiling.
absofuckinglutely.
In this market there’s a lot of work we’d have to do to make it more sell-able, and my wife likes the place a lot more than I do.
I had a mouse a couple years ago.
Found him sleeping off a food coma after eating a box of oatmeal. not hard to catch.
Also
late at night here at my GFs place, we can hear mice scuttling above us between the floorboards. They sound kind of cute.
Gaahhh no it was small and brown and at first I thought it was a bug
because it scuttled so fast… aahhhhhh
right after Spring Break
when I had spent a lot of time in the woods doing woodsy stuff, I came back to school. I was walking down the street and saw some animals and my thought process was like “ooh shrews..wait, too big…groundhogs…wait, I’m in baltimore. Hi there, giant rats!”

so, they're getting in somewhere,
probably from the outside into your basement. you need to find where they get from your basement to kitchen.
most likely, it’s in holes around the plumbing. look for droppings under the kitchen sink.
if you find ANY holes around the pipes, stuff them with steel wool. and set the traps as well.

one more thing
traps will get the live ones as long as you cut off other sources of food (look for the droppings to see where they go).
but traps won’t keep the new ones from coming in. so do a hard target search for where they’re getting into the house, and also how they’re getting upstairs. mouse poison in the basement/crawl space is a good idea because they’ll eat it before they come upstairs (although you’ll occasionally have to dispose of a dead smelly mouse from down there).

mice don't like people.
seriously. they’re just looking for food. make sure there’s nothing out in the kitchen. when you go to bed, if you’re paranid, stuff a towel under your door.
but it’s not really interested in your room, it’s interested in cereal and that kinda stuff.
tomorrow, get a cat.

This
I had a mouse problem for a little while, but after spending a little bit more time making sure i stored food better, it went away on its own. Though, it might help that i live in an apartment building and they probably had better options to move on to.
it can be pretty hard to keep them out of drawers in some houses.

I went to my kitchen once in the middle of the night to get a class of water and found a huge roach in my sink
Scared the shit out of me. Although it was right on the edge of the disposal, and i just flipped the switch. Of the two of us, i feel like it ended up the less happy about the encounter.
i dont know why, but that comment caused me to be overcome by a fit of laughter

start by drinking with ice and or water
move to drinking it neat after you’re used to it.

I've been drinking whiskeys for a while now, and i still prefer it with ice
Usually one ice cube per glass. I find the way the ice melts and slowly waters down the whiskey actually gives a much better sense of the flavors that are present.
I tried to be a liquor guy
Just not my thing, I guess. All liquors either taste greasy, oily, or like death (whiskey).

I woke up to puke a couple times next to my bed in high school and my mom had already seen it. I always said it was food poisoning. Also one time my junior year of high school I had way too much to drink and the next morning my mom made me pancakes in the morning and I had to run from the breakfast table to puke. Again I said food poisoning…

I on the other hand haven’t wet a bed since I stopped wearing diapers in the 6th grade.

I had a roommate in college who twice got up in a drunken stupor, picked up his laptop, placed it on his desk chair, peed on it, closed it, and put it back on his desk and went back to sleep. I thought it was hilarious. His parents weren’t too happy about buying him 3 laptops in the course of two years…

Thats my favorite part
It once took me 3 full matches to figure out how you score in Gaelic football
Scoring: 6 points for kicking it between the inner posts, 1 point for kicking between the outer posts
you can run with the ball, but you have to bounce it every 15 meters. Can also advance it by kicking it, or by hitting with your hand (open or closed fist, but no actual throws)
If you get tackled, you have to give up the ball.
I like gaelic football more, but australian rules would be a blast to play too
Then you watch international rules football, which is a combination of the two so Ireland and Australia can play each other, and get even more confused.
