Theme Days

Recommended Posts

Back when I was a wee tot at age 4, going to preschool, we had things like Pajama Day, Western Day, Hat Day, etc.

So one day I decided to ask my teacher when we were having "Naked Day"

She told me that people are required to wear clothes. I told her that one day I would celebrate Naked Day.

Anyone else have a theme day they are dedicated to celebrate?

When I worked at Wachovia, I forced the department to approve a jersey day for the MNF game against the Dolphins

Wasnt just a Panthers jersey day, a bunch of people wore other teams jerseys

I put together a huge tailgate we had hotdogs, cookies, cakes, people brought it homemade stuff, chicken nuggets, it was AWESOOOME

Just another reason to not be working yayyy

At my new job there is only 8 of us in my branch and no one watches footballl, so I would probably be alone on that idea now.

hahahahaha omg I wish I could get drunk at work everyday that would be awesome.

the whole clothes off thing wouldn't go over too well considering my boss and 1 of my co workers is gay

(so if you do the math, I work with 4 guys, 50% of which are gay)

I don't think I could handle doublefisting beer AND tequila...that would be a definite challenge.

    • Going from the 32nd to 27th ranked QB is a huge achievement indeed.
    • I do expect the offense to fall back to earth next year if everything stays the same.  It is kinda like how the Panthers and even now the Chiefs won in the past.  Winning many close, coin flip games.  It never lasts from season to season usually. 
    • Biased is one way of putting it. The NFL is an entertainment product in the strictest legal sense. Although I might yell it out on game days, I do not believe the games are outright “rigged” meaning there is one team that is going to win no matter what happens. It’s impossible. There’s too much variance in the game that can prevent a truly rigged game from happening unless there was cooperation from many parties involved. What I am thoroughly convinced happens is that the NFL and referees “manage” the games towards certain outcomes. And that is done primarily through referee crew choice however I wouldn’t be surprised if there’s more going on behind the curtain.  The NFL uses the officials statistical tendencies to call penalties is to keep games close to drive user engagement. For example, If a crew tends to call more false start penalties, and there’s a game between a heavy pass offense where the NFL would like to manufacture a close game where it might have potential to be a blowout, then they’ll assign a crew that will slow that offense down and keep the game close.  There is an insane amount of marketing and now sports betting money that is married to the NFL economic ecosystem. To think this whole system is fair when the referee union has no outward accountability structure for poor performance is just naive. It’s closer to the WWE than outward appearances suggest, but it’s not a fully scripted outcome either. So for those who say “stop watching” if you don’t want to watch a “rigged” game, it’s an entertainment product. You can still be entertained by it, even if it’s not as fair as a truly merit based sporting event.
