hahah, i feel you man
i know we have all space it now and then but it sucks when you are cooking
/sometimes the timer on your phone is your friend
did you have a lid on the pna? i might have to try this out to hold in some of the moisture, but i would turn the fire down super low
its been freaking hawt here so i dont want to fire up the stove but i would like a good roll of meat! that look like an old german lady

If Deshaun is smart he’ll settle down and make an honest woman of his girlfriend, like rapelisberger did after his ‘incident’.
Jameson williams, the Lions WR, is going to be suspended for 6 games because of his gambling, so that’s another damper on the lions prospects. But they seem to have plenty of weapons and should be ok until he gets back.

Yeah 9-8 is a pretty reasonable record for the browns if they suffer some key injuries during the season, like most teams do, or if that defense isnt at least league average for some reason. Im going to hold off on laying some $ on them, maybe if they start off slow and the odds get better I’ll put a bet down. Plus like Pops and Buckeye said, the AFC north doesnt have a bad team so only going .500 in divisional games puts a damper on the browns' win total. But im glad buckeye is contributing, it will definitely be interesting to see how they do with a fully engaged Watson at QB.

Is this ur knife, Pops? Pretty sweet looking blade, I like the cutouts in the handle for less weight, and the little knob to help flip it open. And less than $50? All around good deal. And a well made knife will last basically forever if you take care of it.

Makes sense to hydrate thoroughly before a hike so u can carry less water. I’d be worried about needing to go pee during a walk but I guess if youre working up a sweat enough u wont have to piss as much.

Sorry to hear u burned the meat, Hawk. Yeah, walking away and drinking and talking on the phone will distract you from the stove. Well, at least it was edible, and like Hawk said a good amount of char on meat isnt a bad thing. Even if it’s too blackened it’s simple enough to scrape the excess off. You have more pork belly and everything looked good up to a point so I think you have to redeem yourself. Is this ur first time cooking rouladen?

How do you reverse sear without an oven, Hawk? You seem to make do without an oven but i guess you could do even better if u had a working one. I think back in the day ovens weren't really a thing, like with wood burning stoves and such, you could cook stuff on top but not inside. Or cowboy cooking, where all u have is a campfire to cook over. You just have to get a little creative without the benefit of an oven.

I think rookies have already reported to some nfl training camps, and then veterans will start reporting next week, and then we’ll get some preseason games next month. Should be interesting to see how the new QBs do if they get preseason reps, rodgers in NY, Carr in NO, Baker in TB, the rookies in carolina and houston, jordan love in GB…

pops is the pee machine! on the trails i dgaf and will slide to the side and water the bushes np
i will drink a big glass of water before bed and then another in the morning to hydrate
add a couple shots and im good to goman
/ you gotta have the juice! for you hawk


yeah man1 thats the knife for the most part, mine might be last years model but its basically the same design
/my blade has the teeth at the base and the frame looks a little different, plus the liner lock runs the length of the handle but other wise the same
notice how it also has that protrusion on the back, thats the finger flipper; some knifes only have one or the other
/thumb stud or finger flipper
not totally sold on the afc.n beyond wkrp, but maybe we can do the math
you get your div winners and then the three best teams earn a wild card:
chargers, fins...???
moar nfl taeks to come!

Yeah first time cooking rouladen.did everything right.just wasn't paying attention.no big deal except its gonna be a pain in the ass to clean pan.
I can reverse sear if I got something that fits in my airfryer.pans won't fit.
Gonna post some some Chinese food to redeem myself.even though I didn't cook it.

Honestly it looked a bit better than it was.it was called the happy family.about 14$ for that.chicken,shrimp,beef,pork,and scallops.it was ok.didnt care for the crab Rangoon and fried scallops witch was extra.it was OK but I have made better Rangoon than that.i haven't had takeout Chinese in like 10 years so it was alright..lots of of Thai places around here but not a huge fan.dont care for pad Tai and pho.love me some satay though.
Yeah the round things were scallops.i was dissatisfied with those

oh shit man! i was going to say scallops but real scallops are hella expensive and you dont ge thtem at the chineese point point joint that size
i agree with you 100% that you could make a better won ton for half the price!
the chicken looks good and would be easy to make youself as well
the left over grilled chick from the other night plus a bunch of veggies, throw in some soy sauce
and oyster sauce, mix that with garlic, onions( im not inot the heat so i omit the spicy) and some vinegar to taste
you could also just go with the terriaki sauce which is grinding too

I too like to get well hydrated before sleep but the downside is getting up in the middle of the night to use the pissah. Ah well.
That’s a good point, with only 3 wild cards between the chargers, ravens, browns, jets, and dolphins (assuming chiefs bengals bills win their divisions) then who gets the WC spots? If you had to pick 3 of the 5, which would it be?

Im surprised you didn’t use a cast iron skillet to cook the rouladen, Hawk. I thought you did most of your steak cooking on skillets? Is it a non stick pan u used, or stainless steel? I find heating up the pan some helps the burn residue to loosen up before cleaning.

You havent had chinese takout in 10 yrs, Hawk? That’s impressive, I don’t eat it often but I do have it like once a month on average, maybe 10x a year. Is that a lot?

Im not a big fan of scallops myself, something about it that I don’t like, maybe it’s the texture. Never had battered and deep fried scallops though, everything is better when it’s battered and fried. Did it come with a dipping sauce at least?
Like pop said were they pricey? If not then they were probably fake scallops, like that imitation crab meat they can fake it. I didn’t know that before, maybe that explains why I don’t like it, most the ones ive had were probably fake?
Also the rangoons look like they hardly have any filling, and ur right any filling they have it devoid of actual crab meat. At least it’s a fried crispy wonton wrapped around cream cheese so it’s not all bad…

Buckeye, can you go over the brown’s schedule this season and give me ur take on which ones they win and which they lose? I know we’re all homers here but try to be as realistic as u can. Browns actually play the bengals tough so likely they’ll split their 2 games this season, even going 2-0 vs the bengals wouldnt be an outrageous take...

man hawk we need to get you some wheels, or at least a cool bicycle or some roller skates so you can get around town
i can dig your moms position, my mom would not give me a ride to a bar and she would be the last person i would want to ask to come pick me up unless it was an emergency
/i would rather walk home than have to face her after drinking myself silly
we go out to eat all the time but she would not be a fun drinking buddy
i notice that you dident pencil in an afc.s team but i dont see a lot of heat coming from the south this year
the div winner get in and then the rest get to talk of rebuilding
otherwise i like the fins, b'more* and the chargers
/did i just throw up a little
#f'spanos
/we will see how nyj and ne do with their new d.jones do
can the titans pull of 10 wins?
this is the fun part and i cant wait for the action to start
real scallops arent cheap and cheap scallops arent real/unless they are those quarter sized things you see in some places, let them grow man
its such a delicate meat that you dont reall need to cook it that much
a little butter and garlic in a pan for a could min a side just to get the sear should do it
fried scallops are usually that emo'tation stuff
but it looks like you are eating good hawk

*this one can be swapped out for a few teams

Did you ever make it to the bar, Hawk? Hopefully everything went well, and u were friendly drunk instead of a-hole drunk. Ah who am i kidding i know who im talking to. You were a lil bit of column a, a lil bit of column b.

Seems like every year we say the chargers look like a 12 win team on paper but it hits like 15% of the time. They do got a QB tho, ill give them that.
There was an interesting article i read recently, how would the rams have done last year if they had traded for christian mccaffrey instead of the 49ers? The author said at most they would have finished with 6-7 wins (they won 5 games last yr?). But with mccaffrey on this year's team, and he and stafford and kupp are healthy all year? Are they averaging 28pts a game?

Do you like the imitation crab meat, Pops? Im ok with it, but u sometimes dont like fish...

i dont mind the emo cwabb meat, it is ok in certain things where its just there for texture and added protein like a seafood salad or those california sushi rolls
my favorite is crab in the shell but that can be a pita to eat
its a wine bar baba so it would take a lot for hawk to get shitty there, but if anyone can do it it would be him
i think he just wants to hob knob with fat cats and taste some of the good life
i hope he gets out there and can give us the run down of what its like
whoah babs! you just set my hat to spinning
runCMC on the rams
would this have happened when c.akers was crying about not wanting to play?
i dont know if the rams could handle the cap hit and i feel like $tafford might be on his way out
even if he puts up decent numbers this year, he comes at a co$$t to the rams
/i hear they wanted to rework his deal but he wasnt having it
but i dont think the expenditure would be worth the extra few games we could have won if he was a ram and we have a long road to a rebuild
how about in CHi? would hehave been able to move the needle for the bears?
could this have been your dream of a run strong offense with a mobile qb and runCMC...
add ina power back and you got yourself a party
the more i think if that the more it seems to make sence

Isn’t brandy just like a really strong wine? Hawk could be drinking brandy out of a wineglass and pretend to fit in.
Sounds like Hawk had a good time regardless, if he needs to step back for a few days. Don’t keep us in suspense give us all the juicy details. Plus u need to redeem yourself on the remoulade. I stg if hawk had a youtube cooking channel i would watch it. He could call it Drunk Ass Cooking or something. Or TPB Cooking. It could be half comedy, half serious, and all entertainment. Or i would settle for a tiktok at least. You dont need to show ur face, but u could show ur dog, maybe give him a little of the food.

This is all the cooking I did for this week: got an impossible whopper from BK. It’s not bad, hard to tell the difference from real meat. This one seemed a bit dry though, maybe it was sitting for a while before being served.

Yeah, neither the rams or bears needed RB help as much as they needed Off line help and overall defensive improvement. Bears probably had the better RBs with david montgomery (now with the lions) and khalil herbert last year, but not by much. I was just wondering what it would take to get the 2018-2019 rams offense back, with gurley as the best RB in the league, able to dice u up receiving or running. Cmc is the closest we come to that but gurley was on another level those years.

i was a big fan of gurley until he fell off the cliff
a classic tale of the hot shit rb who ran out of gas
i hope he is living his best life and maybe if hawk can hit up that fancy shancy wine bar we might run into him
the rams have no mobility at qb so a solid o'line is a must, but i thnk the bears could get by with a heavy load of rpo plays if they had run CMC and at least a decent receiver down field to keep a defense honest
ive had that impossible meat before and it wasnt bad, did you get the onion rings with it?
we made them our self at home and it was ok as long as you dressed the burger up
im not big on the bk near my house right now
the last couple times i went it was somewhere between ok and sucky
so the other day i hit up the vons and they had a 2x meat lasagne for a decent price (i think it was like $11 for the family size)
it wasnt that bad and i thought it was a great deal
is the frozen food section of the store my new food hang out? they also have prepared food in the deli if you dont want to take it home and cook
they have this $5 fridays deal where they have fried chicken and stuff on sale, all for $5
i might have hit up and see what they have later

Yeah for sure, gurley signed a big contract and within 2 years had to be cut because of his balky knee. He did make about 50M with the rams tho so he should be doing alright, who knows maybe he opened up a wine bar himself…
After stafford went down last year, the backups that played were way more mobile but the offense wasn’t any better, they couldn’t pass the ball with kupp gone, akers picked it up the last month of the season but still struggled to score points. We’ll see how they do week 1, but in the preseason we should get a long look at the backups, see if there’s any hope if the stars get injured again.

No just the burger, I like BK fries well enough but didn’t get any, and BK onion rings are kind of heavily processed and gross unless theyre fresh out of the frier.

Costco has a big lasagna for like $15 or less, theyre good only downside is you have to cook it from frozen in the oven for like 1.5 hrs.

So the commanders were sold to a new owner, I think washington fans are very happy about that, but not they’re talking about another name change. Havent they been the commanders for only 1-2 yrs? Would they have to refund people who bought commanders jerseys?
What do u think about that situation, buckeye? Also lane kiffin said the new NIL and transfer portal rules in college football is ruining the sport, it's like free agency on steroids, whatchu think?

man, i cant wait for the preseason to start
some rbs can get hurt and bounce back and still have a few solid years in them
others get hurt that one time and its done
/lt in sd comes to mind, he was never the same after his injury
if gurley was smart he will live a great life of that paycheck
i agree about how bk rings are gross unless they are fresh, but i feel that way about most fast food places now
in n out makes a great burger but their fries are just pretty good at best and =sux if you dont eat them fresh
vons had that big lasagne for sale but i chose a smaller sized one
it wsa little cheaper but i just dont like messing with the leftovers
i was actually there to get some taco shells because im craving beef tacos but got distracted by all the good easy to eat foods they had in the freezer section
maybe the commander jerseys will become collectors items, like if you had an old huston oilers jersey
earl campbell would be sweet
but im not a fan of washinton or any of the hogs
what would be a good new team name? boaty mcboatface ftw

Yeah, an acl tear is normally pretty recoverable by most RBs, even if it usually takes them 2 yrs to get back fully. Saquon tore his acl, was ok his 1st year back (also had some ankle injuries that 1st yr) but looked really good his 2nd yr after the acl. Gurley had his acl tear in college and it was the resulting arthritis that got him a few years later.
LT never tore his acl but he did have an MCL injury that hindered him in the playoffs, then toe, groin and ankle injuries in the years afterwards, and by then he was 30 and was retired by 31. Once he started getting old and injured and lost that burst he wasn’t the same, like u said.

What would be a good name for the washington team? That’s a good question, I guess anything native american related would not be politically correct. Probably some animal name I guess? Or something to do with the military?

Former chargers and broncos RB melvin gordon III signed a 1yr 3M deal with the ravens. He had some fumbling problems with the broncos last year and javonte williams became the feature back so I guess this deal is probably his last real payday, and they might cut him during the season if he falls out of the rotation.
