Thorsday Open Thread
Good Morning!
I start my seven days on service today, Gone Fishin is going to help me out and take tomorrow’s thread, the weekend thread will post as usual. If you’re in the part of the country getting hit with winter storms stay safe and be warm. We’re slowly reaching the start of the new league year with free agency pending right around the corner followed by the draft. Time to carry on with our news and links open thread full of beer recommendations, nap strategies, crock pot and smoker recipes. Fire up the mock drafts and drop by for some fan wisdom, snark and have another cup of Abuelita.

(by request of Supavike1)
Again, we all know the rules, but in case someone is new:
-No discussion of politics or religion
-No feeding of the trolls
-This isn’t a male version of The View, so leave the gender hatred at the door
-Keep the bad language to a minimum (using the spoiler tags, if you must)
-Speaking of which, if discussing a newer show or movie, please use spoiler tags
-No pictures that could get someone fired or in serious trouble with their employer
-If you can’t disagree in a civil manner, feel free to go away
-While navigating the open thread, just assume it’s sarcasm.
With that, the beer light is on and the bar is open. Belly up & tie one on. Don’t forget to tip your waitress, try the popcorn and beef jerky and as always, Welcome Aboard!
