Any good systems or process for ranking players expected to miss games?
Gepetto replied to cmh6476's topic in FFToday Board
I may consider drafting after my starters are drafted, even then, preferably a 2nd bench player at their position. -

Exceptions and limitations to having a court hearing Expedited removal: Immigrants who are apprehended within 100 miles of a U.S. border and have been in the country for less than two years may be subject to expedited removal. This process allows the government to deport people without a full hearing before an immigration judge. An exception is made if the person claims a credible fear of persecution or torture in their home country. In that event, they receive a hearing to determine if they qualify for asylum. -

We're leaving wokesters, liberals and communists behind. No more criminals. No supporters of criminals. If you don't agree with where the country is going, go to Canada, Europe, or Mexico or the Middle East (hahaha). -
https://www.cnn.com/2025/08/23/europe/ukraine-russia-energy-attacks-intl A dramatic rise in Ukrainian attacks on Russian oil refineries has sent gasoline prices in Russia to record highs, despite the government banning petrol exports to cope with the crunch. Ukraine is focusing drone attacks on refineries, pumping stations and fuel trains in an effort to hurt the Russian war machine - but also to disrupt daily life in Russia. Summer sees peak demand among Russia’s drivers and farmers for petrol. Ukrainian drones have struck at least ten key Russian energy facilities this month alone, according to a CNN tally of attacks. The latest, on Sunday, targeted a complex near St. Petersburg, setting off an extensive fire, according to geolocated video. The regional governor, Alexander Drozdenko, said fuel tanks at a port nearby had not been affected. The strategy seems to be working. The refineries struck account for more than 44 million tons of products annually – more than 10% of Russia’s capacity - according to Ukraine’s intelligence service. Among the targets - the giant Lukoil refinery in Volgograd, the largest in southern Russia. CNN geolocated clouds of smoke billowing from the plant, which was struck in the early hours of August 14. The Russian defense ministry acknowledged damage to the plant, which was attacked again on August 19. A large refinery in Saratov, also in southern Russia, was attacked earlier this month. And fires continued to burn Saturday at another refinery – in Rostov region – more than two days after it was hit, according to Robert Brovdi, Commander of Ukraine’s Unmanned Systems. Gasoline shortages are reported in several Russian regions and in annexed Crimea. Its Russia-appointed governor, Sergey Aksyonov attributed gasoline shortages to “logistics issues,” and said the government was “taking all possible measures to purchase the necessary volumes of fuel and stabilize prices.” An activist with a pro-Ukrainian group in Crimea, – Yellow Ribbon, - said on Telegram that the most popular grade of petrol had disappeared, and “the understanding that this is the result of the good drones work on the Russian economy does not allow me to be sad.” Despite government subsidies, Russian consumers are paying more at the pump. Wholesale petrol prices on the St Petersburg exchange have risen by nearly 10% this month alone, and by about 50% since the beginning of the year. Much of that increase is being passed on to consumers, with the Russian far east especially impacted. Analysts expect no relief for at least a month, even though the Russian government imposed a ban on exporting petrol in late July - which in turn contributed to a rise in exports of crude oil instead. “Unfortunately, our forecast is unfavorable for now — we will most likely have to wait at least another month for prices to fall,” Sergey Frolov, managing partner at NEFT Research, told the Russian newspaper Kommersant. Kommersant said that the surge in prices this month was “due to accidents at oil refineries.” The military is less affected because its demand is mainly for diesel, supplies of which are less impacted.

Pay To Watch A Condensed Replay Of A NFL Preseason Game ?
Gepetto replied to easilyscan's topic in The Geek Club
Would be nice, except Cam Ward threw 4 passes and JJ McCarthy didn't play, so I'm not going to bother with that specific game. The preseason has gotten worse. Use to be able to watch the 1st quarter of the 3rd preseason game to at least see how the offensive starters move the ball or don't. I saw Mahomes looks good at least. These teams severly limiting their starting QB in the preseason I feel may get off to a slow start and have lots of penalties. Not all teams, but some. -

Newsflash: the Restaurant industry is lesser food. Home cooked meals are better, if you know how to cook. Sadly, the last couple of generations the vast majority can't and don't cook at home. I blame women in the workforce. Cook, clean, make me a sandwich and get me a beer, and have dinner ready when I'm done with work. This is the way.

I grilled filet mignons and lobster tails tonight. Melted butter for both, and A-1 mixed with ketchup for the mignons. The flavor of mignon is just not my favorite if not sauced up.

Pathetic bringing this thread current for such a stupid reason.

I tried it and it was ok to me, probably won't get it again. My cousin and uncle get Filet Mignon w/ Oscar topping every time.

Not on a roll. Just add either melted Parmesan or melted Monterey Jack cheese and grilled shrimp on top.

I want it covered with melted butter. I actually like to mix A-1 with Ketchup. Melted cheese and grilled shrimp on top is really good (no sauce for that).
