Tune in next week for ESPN 8 The OCHO (Jul 31-Aug 3, give or take) [always airs the first weekend of august, sorta. check local listings] Corgi races! Ax throwing! Red Bull Flutag! Slippery Stairs! Some goodyear blimp documentary?

I would love to have seen ESPN buy all of NFL Films. Surprised INSIDE THE NFL never moved to ESPN (it hasn't been the same since it left HBO for Showtime, and has floundered once they shifted from airing NFL Film recaps to more of a talking head commentary show

Frank Reich excited about Bryce Young’s resurgence after ‘terrible’ start to QB’s NFL career https://apnews.com/article/panthers-bryce-young-frank-reich-8aa35c1c3924d95b3e8253afb94b29d9

Can someone copy/paste the info shown in the Twitter embed, please?

nah, he just puts the one grill plate out, does up a few steaks. Don't need more than that

neighbor got a smokeless wood firepit with a grill insert. They're fancy (insert promotional photo here)

What I like about the Venom for the Weber vs something like the BILLOWS from Thermoworks (a fantastic company, get ALL their thermometers) is that I didn't want to drill any holes into the bottom bowl. The Venom just snaps in and can be removed/moved to a different grill if needed I think for the Green Egg, the Billows can attach directly to the lower port without modifications. So that's a better use case for that product I think

It's made charcoal grilling super easy for someone who doesn't want to deal with setting up the snake method

Check Walmart today/this week -- B&B charcoal for $10/bag

Cooked a 7+lb pork butt on the kettle with the Venom. Set it at 225, held temp all day long (it was a 14hour cook, the stall at 155 took hours to clear). The temp graph in the app showed a +/- 3 degree variation for hours on end. Other than constantly checking the phone because I felt like it, it was mainly hands-off Because I was using lump instead of briquettes (ugh, lump was NOT my choice, but the bag is almost done) I had to restock/reset the fuel after about 5 hours, which was fine. Finally pulled the pork once it got to 195 - I wasn't going to wait any longer for 200. (I didn't wrap it through the stall, which was probably another poor choice) Let it sit for 30m, then pulled it. Great bark, great flavor.

I know it's all in the editing, but the Camp Confidential clips suggest that the *team* believes in Bryce. THEY'RE drinking the kool-aid that Dan & Dave are putting out

'I believe what they say they're going to change around here" Good

For those with a classic 22" or 26" Weber Kettle, go and get yourselves two things: a) the VORTEX. It's basically a piece of heavy-duty sheet metal formed into a volcano/cone shape. Sit that in the middle of your kettle and pile in your charcoal. Crank the coals up to max temperature (open all the vents, you know the drill) and put chicken wings or thighs around the outside of the center ring. You've got yourself the best air fryer setup for some incredible super-crispy grilled wings. Lowes shows it at $40, but your local Walmart may have it for under $15, check the clearance rack https://www.lowes.com/pl/grills-outdoor-cooking/grilling-tools-accessories/vortex/4294610365-721174412814 b) Envious of all your friends with a wifi-enabled pellet grill? Add wifi control and accurate temp management to your Weber kettle with the SPIDER GRILL's VENOM controller. Get complete temp control for your kettle with this electronic add-on (no drilling holes required!).

Small Market? That would be Green Bay Market smaller than Charlotte? Then you're talking Kansas City, Baltimore, New Orleans, Indianapolis, Pittsburgh... Folks need to stop using "small market" when referring to the Panthers. It's not true when referring just to Charlotte. It's definitely not true when combining Charlotte with additional coverage areas like Greenville/Spartanburg/Asheville or Greensboro/High Point/Winston Salem

From ESPN this morning: Pablo Torre and Mike Florio did some digging into contract negotiations: The whole thing is... a lot. Expect to see more details and analysis of this today as folks dig into the arbitration ruling https://awfulannouncing.com/nfl/pablo-torre-mike-florio-uncover-evidence-collusion.html

anyone able to pull odds for a parlay of Bryce MVP + Dave as CotY ? Bryce as NFL comeback player of the year?

Bryce Young +7500 (per Fanduel. Other sites + vegas may be different) https://www.si.com/betting/nfl-mvp-odds-for-2025-season-lamar-jackson-favored-to-win-third-career-mvp-01jxgav6njkq

In the video, you can hear the Keep Pounding chant If they were trying to replace, they wouldn't have included that audio at all

I dont think they're replacing Keep Pounding. They already know the backlash they got last time they tried

Kinda like the metallic/matte finish that some teams have gone with recently on the other hand, while I like the 70's movie Rollerball, the number style from that film doesn't hold up for today. Hope we're not going down that path

Earlier conversation on the topic: https://www.carolinahuddle.com/topic/478207-will-history-repeat-itself-and-carolina-make-it-to-nfccg-this-year/

and leadership in the locker room (the players say he's a leader and believe in him)

thank you for the copy-n-paste from the twiterverse
