Hump Day Open Thread
Good Morning!
It’s Hump Day and my Friday, a fact I’m sure is only interesting to me. I’ll be looking for that email from Vikings.com today, I did send an email yesterday and got a canned “so you’re interested in season tickets” response. Training camp will be upon us soon which is sure to spark more spirited debates on who the 4th WR should be and “we need a backup long snapper.” Meanwhile, time to carry on with our news and links open thread full of beer recommendations, nap strategies, crock pot and smoker recipes. Drop by for some fan wisdom, snark and go ahead leave work early, it’s Hump Day.
Around the DN since our last open thread:

Again, we all know the rules, but in case someone is new:
-No discussion of politics or religion
-No feeding of the trolls
-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 waiter, try the monotony and Welcome Aboard!
