    I can understand missing in a sloppy snow game, but he has missed some "normal" ones this year too. Given how easily they moved down the field, maybe they should be going for 2 each time.

    He is our fourth H-back of the season. He was promoted when Lovette went on the IR about 4 weeks ago. He's played the last few weeks.

    Interesting that Patrick is the odd man out on the OL this week.

    Best kickoff return yet!

    You know, if one of you paid for cable and then shared your login for a nominal fee to the others...that'd be terribly illegal and certainly something you shouldn't do!

    It's still funny that there are more Koreans in the Pro Bowl than Dallas Cowboys.

    Sounds like it probably will be snowing. Was just reading a Titans board and they sound just like us when talking about their D. Statistically they are worse than the Packers D which by some miracle is 8th in the league in yardage. When you have a highly rated passing defense in a passing league, that will happen. Rush defense has been our Achilles heel, but that has been improving lately. I guess we will see if it has improved enough to stop Henry.

    I was just looking at my HSA investment account today, where I have a 5-10 year investment risk profile. So they put me in a mutual fund from Vanguard that has historically (over 10 years) gained 2 percent. Since they are Bonds, the risk is very minimal. This is one bond index fund. There are others to investigate: https://investor.vanguard.com/mutual-funds/profile/VBITX Hope that helps.

    So, I've been pretty anti-Disney+ for a few reasons (mainly how horrible Star Wars episodes 7-9 were). But we decided to join for a month and binge-watch Mandalorian (plus, my daughter wanted to watch Mulan the live-action movie). What I didn't expect was the number of movies and shows Disney has in audio-descript. I have one daughter (3 daughters total) that is completely blind and is generally lost while "watching" TV. Hulu has a couple of shows with audio-descript (an audio channel like SAP where someone describes the actions going on), but nearly all of Disney's shows have it (only 1 out of 8-10 sampled didn't). My daughter watched The Santa Clause plus a couple of Mickey Mouse Christmas cartoons with audio descript. Listening to her laugh at the jokes and physical comedy was priceless. Normally, she will fall asleep around 8:30 if we are watching TV, but on Christmas Eve, she was up until 11PM watching TV. I still hate what they did to Star Wars, but I have to applaud their focus here. Looks like I'll be eating my words and keeping Disney+...

    In MN, there was massive optimism going into this year. I was highly dubious as they did lose a LOT of players - plus Hunter's neck issue (which wasn't apparent until the regular season) and that DT who opted out of the season. But I'm still shocked they weren't more competitive; especially with Jefferson coming on like he did. I really think the locker room is blowing up and Diggs looks smart now. Generally, those are signs of the coach losing the team...then losing his job.

    Frankly, I'm amazed that Zimmer has lasted this long. Good defensive coaches really don't make good HC in this day and age. This era is all about the offense and Zimmer's staff has been a joke on the offensive side. Look at the job the Packers did to patch up their OL and still play compared to what the Vikings have done for years (our OL with Linsley out isn't far off the talent of the Vikings). Their OC turn-table has been hilarious to watch... they put together some games, but often fall on their face. Honestly, a MLF-type coach or OC would fit their QB-WR-TE-RB combo very well - but they chose to go with 1990's rehashed offense with Kubiak. Personally, I hope they keep Zimmer as I don't see them getting over the hump with him. But if they fire him, sign me up to bring him on as DC!

    Yes, I've made that mistake 2-3 times already. Lopez looks very passive today. Already had a couple of people drive on him for layups.

    Turner has actually been very good at RT this year. A step down from Bulaga, but not too far behind. I still don't like him at guard, though. I think Jenkins' future is at center, personally. Hard to know exactly how good he can be at tackle (since he hasn't played there much), but he looks like a Pro-Bowl C/G for a long time. Hard to move him out and risk him being "ok". I'd say the center has as much (or more) impact on the offense as the RT. The center calls the coverages and is critical to the run game.

    Family tradition - I go out and buy a new pillow to celebrate Jeff Suppan Signing Day!

    In years past, I've been a contributor on ultimateguitar.com (uploading my own tabbed songs), but it frustrated me at times when you spend time learning someone's song and find out it is "off". The rating help some, but it still takes some diligence to weed out the good from the bad. What exactly does the subscription gain? What sort of online assistance? Videos or a chat forum? I've noticed they added some features over the last year or so, but hadn't gone back to investigate.

    My favorite way to take in a game is listening to Uecker on the radio while I'm out doing something else. Now that I'm out of state, I often use the MLB app to stream the audio feed. Rarely do I watch a whole game on TV 1-9th innings. Often if I'm watching the game, I watch it late. The MLB app allows you to pick which half-inning you want to watch. I'll skip through to watch specific at-bats or innings pitched. And I'm not a millennial.

    McDs dropped their Bagel breakfast sandwiches some time ago and Kwik Trip started serving them - no coincidence I'm sure. That is my sandwich of choice - over all restaurants.

    Hard pass. No desire to help a division rival out by dumping a bad contract (especially the back half of a contract for a 30+year old player) and giving them prospects. No desire to take on an old pitcher at $20M/year. Many better options out there than this.

    I watch the Packers from my owner's box every week!

    Back when the trade was falling apart, I was digging into this and they weren't that far apart. DD was behind, but mainly by 3pt shooting. If he can pick that up, I don't think we will miss that trade.

    And Kobe King is off to play in Canada...

    Kwik Trip is more of a food store that sells gas. My wife drove 2 hours yesterday and joked that the one time she gets out, she eats at Kwik Trip (and she had other options where she picked Kwik Trip). Their burger and rib sandwiches are decent (I prefer them to McDs, but not Culvers), their chicken is excellent, I love the breakfast sandwiches, and of course the donuts and frozen pizza (BBQ chicken is a family favorite).
  23. CheezWizHed
    Kwik trip has a mock McRib sandwich. Basically tastes the same, but without the pickle and onion. If you catch it on special, you can buy it for a dollar.

    Well drat, my memory was bad. Looks like I'm getting 0.5% instead of 2-3%. But I don't have a ton of money there... I use it as my liquid savings account instead of the 0.001% you get from a bank, so I suppose I'm doing better anyway.
  25. CheezWizHed
    Let me double check when I get home. I know it was with DWS, but I don't remember the fund name. Hopefully, I linked the wrong spot and not overstating the return. I know it will fluctuate with the market, but doesn't ever lose value.
