Weekend and Father’s Day Open Thread

Good Morning!

It’s a big weekend at my house with Father’s Day on Sunday and mrs_rob’s birthday on Monday (that we’ll celebrate on Sunday) We’re planning to grill Saturday and attempting to smoke some salmon Sunday (first attempt at smoking fish). Meanwhile we’ll carry on with our news and links full of crockpot recipes, nap strategies and beer recommendations; drop by for some fan wisdom, snark and it’s the weekend, you should get all your outdoor chores done early, fire up the smoker or grill, have a beer or two and have a great weekend.

Around the DN since our last open thread:

Consistent with the weekend thread, I’ll post league news in the comments section.

We come to today’s media selection: ACDC - Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap

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 wash your hands, be safe in your surroundings and Welcome Aboard!

Question of the Day: More and more college and professional athletes are reporting cases of Covid 19 after group workouts. Do you think there will be an NFL season and if so what form will it take? ie, shortened season, playing without fans etc.
