Thorsday Open Thread
Good Morning!
I’m starting my seven off today, quite frankly I’m exhausted as Influenza A continues to rage in our area and I’ve admitted a lot of people for the flu. The combine starts soon so we’ll have something else to talk about for a while besides the usual. I’ve been thinking about doing a “live” 3 round mock draft on the weekend thread, I’ll have to give it some more thought on how to work it out logistically so anyone who wants to participate has the opportunity. 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 try the Cafe Con Leche Stout.

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 shrimp and grits and as always, Welcome Aboard!
