"You know, Harrison. He was in a couple of those space movies about robots and laser beams. Also, he was the dude who played a cowboy fighting Nazis in that other movie."

You'd need all new accessories anyway with a complete redesign.

I've bought every Nintendo console up until the Wii U. Since they abandoned that early, I decided to skip the Switch. I'll likely pick this up. If this doesn't do well and gets abandoned early again, I'll at least get to play all the games I've missed over the years due to backwards compatibility.

I do think that aging is something we can overcome. It'll take some exponential jumps in research/technology for it to happen in our lifetime though. What worries me is the ultra wealthy hoarding that discovery for themselves.

They almost had a shot to move to L.A. with someone even making a plan for a stadium. That said, Vikings have had some memorable games throughout the years, some games more exciting than some Super Bowl games. Teams/cities can go through a drought, but I think we're getting closer.

The Darnold experiment has concluded. Unless you're willing to spend on an elite O-Line, it's best to use a quarterback who doesn't take four seconds to decide what to do or not do.

The Vikings should move on from Darnold and go with their rookie who can run and handle pressures. JJ McCarthy might not be their guy either, but I'd hate for the Vikings to trade him away and he then becomes a star somewhere else.

You know, I always preferred Faith Hill's version of the Sunday Night Football theme song. Now, I prefer it even more.

The Rock can't be in every movie... though he tries.

"Would it help if I got out and pushed?"

When I go out, I usually tip well. My sister used to be a bartender and waitress and she relied on tips.

That said, tipping is really screwed up now. I went to a stadium for a game once and the employee said that they don't receive the tips when you tip for buying a beer or whatever unless it's cash. That's messed up if true.

I used to think Mr. Pink was an asshole, but he was on to something. I wish tipping was eliminated completely.

They have a combined 12 wins this season. Are they trying to make the NFL look bad overseas?

That's like $2 million less than a 30-second advertising spot during the Super Bowl.

$5 million is marketing for them to try to make them look good, and a tax write off.

I blame MAGA for being morons.
