Fit of the Week: Jeremiah Owusu-Koramoah (Cleveland Browns)

Hoss or Toss: Airport Beers

They might try to take me out for even suggesting that this one is controversial, but here it goes:

Hoss: Relieves some of the stress of traveling, plus a good way to kickstart a trip.

Toss: Why get a buzz just to sober up like 30min later and feel lethargic? A bit short-sighted thinking.

Lock of the Week: 

-Buccaneers ML

The wheels have quickly come off the once-feared Eagles bus. They’ve lost their last 2 games of the season, to the Cardinals and the Giants might I add, and AJ Brown is officially out for the game. And not only is he out, but he’s unhappy with the team, deleting all Eagles posts from his IG. Trouble in paradise.

-Lions ML

This is definitely the toughest of the 3, as the Lions play has been rather inconsistent this year. When they’re hot they’re hot though, and I don’t see them dropping one against an inferior Rams team.

-Bills ML

Take an old friend to lunch, catch up on some work, close your eyes for a bit, and then circle back on this score. You won’t be missing anything. 🔒️

Watch of the Week: Jack Ryan

Key Players:
John Krasinksi
Wendell Pierce
Abbie Cornish

Genre: Political Action Thriller

Where to Watch: Amazon Prime

Please enjoy a spoiler-free review from The Yellow King:

“For those who were fans of The Office, especially Jim Halpert, tune in to Jack Ryan to get a glimpse of John Krasinski in a completely different light. Jack Ryan, is an up and coming CIA analyst who is thrown into dangerous missions across the world to thwart terrorism on a global scale. The show does a great job portraying geopolitical tensions that feel all too real but also mixes in some humor to provide some balance along the way. Jack Ryan is mentored by the witty, daring, and humorous CIA analyst, Jim Greer, who is played by the Wendell Piece, well known for his role in The Wire. Between Ryan and Greer, and the entire supporting cast, this show offers views a glimpse into the conflicts and challenges of high-ranking CIA officials on a global scale.”

Song of the Week: Woke Up This Morning by A3

Wellness Tip of the Week: Catch a nap with your pup

According to The North American Veterinary Community, sharing a nap with your pet can stimulate the release of positive neurotransmitters like dopamine and oxytocin. This can be especially advantageous for individuals dealing with anxiety or depression. Additionally, co-sleeping has the potential to strengthen the bond between pets and their human companions.

Fan Question of the Week: 

What is the favorite article of clothing you have ever owned (or something that you have worn until its last thread)

My Timbs

This was an extremely tough q, and a good one at that. I am an extremely sentimental guy and have retired multiple articles of clothing that I’ll never wear again- whether they be worn out, out of style, outgrown, whatever- but none possess as potent a feeling as my timbs.

Caked in beer, mud from day parties, and [NAME REDACTED]’s blood, the mere sound of these things clunking on the ground brings me right back to college (not to mention the smell).
