    GoFundMe Campaign For A Dearly Departed Friend's Funeral and Rememberance Services

    I've begun a fundraiser for my brother from another mother, Big Steve. One hell of an interesting man. He passed away last week of complications from having both of his legs amputated. He had no family to speak of so no services to pay our respects. He had lots of friends who he considered...

    Quick Question for Season Ticket Holders

    I have an opportunity to buy 5 tix to the Monday Night game against the Cheifs from someone who says they're a season ticket holder. How are the season tix delivered? Are they physical tix, online tix or both. And is there any color coding for sections? Here's a shot of one of the tickets...

    Don't know that this thread ends up being appropriate upstairs here on The Planet and no offense will be taken if it devolves and the choice is to move it down to our cellar. This topic fascinates me for many and varied reasons. I'll begin with a prompt of a philosophical nature and please...

    Wild Card Weekend Game Thread

    Is there any particular reason there was not a thread on this started yesterday? Why? Because the Pats aren't in Postseason? I still have a VHS of a doubleheader of playoff games from around 98 or 99. Jets under Parcells against the Broncos I believe was the early game. The Pats were not in...

    Hair Buns, Samarai, Subscriptions and a Very Special Offer

    You're welcome in advance. :) Facebook Memory from 7 years ago today: "Buns on women and men are an abomination." Absolutely unnecessary addendum to the memory. 😂 "I can probably nowadays make an exception for Samarai. Doesn't matter if it's for style or convenience, just freaking no...

    The Good, The Heroic, The Enjoyable, The Inspiring and the Beautiful in Man and Life Thread

    Given the general malevolent view of man many view the world through these days I'm not expecting much play in this thread. But who knows. I have little interest in being miserable so I look for and thoroughly enjoy things like these 2 books from 2 longtime friends. I enjoy movies of the same...

    Going to Something Which I Would Matters to All of Human Beings

    A couple of words first. These last few days have been insane but epically enlightening. Ya know, recently I got caught up in some piddly local bullshit. But ya know it's not piddly bullshit as it speaks a higher truth. Truths my soul will go the grave seeking. For all of us, because we are...

    Something to Remember Even In the Darkest Of Times, The Light of the 2004 Boston Red Sox

    While it was the 2001 Patriots Superbowl defeat of the Rams in full context of the shadow of 9/11 which was the centerpoint of the best day of my life for many reasons, this 2004 season in its entirety is what dreams are made of. Enjoy my friends!!! In 2004 the Boston Red Sox accomplished the...

    The Most Significant Superbowl Ever Played Was 20 Years Ago Today, February 3rd 2002

    As the Superbowl approaches I am reminded of the greatest game I've ever seen, Superbowl 36. The 14 point underdog Patriots vs the dominant St. Louis Rams. I bought the game on DVD off eBay as soon as I could. It was an ethical and legal gray purchase as the games are copyrighted but I threw...
