My Mom invited my family down for Xmas a couple of years ago and she cannot cook a lick so I was kind of surprised when I heard she was cooking a big 16 lb turkey and all the trimmings. She tries very hard but evidently my Mom did not get the "cooking" gene.

She remarried a few years ago and married a wealthy retired doctor so they have this gorgeous kitchen-commercial model on everything. Anyway, we arrived at 10 AM or so and I just casually asked my Mom what time she put the turkey in that morning. She said "well about an hour ago". I asked are we eating supper instead of lunch? Well that pissed her off....

So I just told her there is no way a turkey that size gets done in 3 hours. Well she decided that she would cut off the top of the breast meat and cook that so we could eat. She gets her husband in there and for some reason they decide to....

Stick 2 forks on either side of the turkey and lift it from the pan it is in and carry it over the kitchen to a nearby counter. I interjected "Why don't you just take it pan and all?" They act like do not hear me and proceed with this grand plan.

They pull it out and immediately blood and turkey fat and organs are all over the damn kitchen floor on its way over to the counter. My Step Dad is in his socks so now his socks look like something in a murder scene from a movie. I jump in and wade through this salmonella pool to help cut the turkey up. When I start to cut the breast top off it has ice crystals in it.

"When did you lay this out I asked?" "Yesterday" was the reply.

So that makes her madder when she sees me start laughing and asks my Step Dad to go get a mop. Well he does and when he hits the highly polished wood floor he BUSTS HIS A** and lands in the rest of the blood and guts. It covered him from head to toe.

We eventually got enough turkey off to cook a meal but her dressing was so dry you could blow it like sand off the top. True POO story...

      PFF ranks the 2025 starting QBs

      By Seltzer · Posted

      I personally think you are trying to talk yourself into circles here... It's ok to say Bryce played incredible the last 5 weeks... I know there are plenty of people on this board who desperately need the doom-and-gloom narrative, but I genuinely question how much NFL QB play some of these people really have watched when they still question him being the unquestioned starter for next year...  Again, that being said, no one is crowning him at all. I think Bryce is one of the best stories going into 2025 bc his season last year was so outlandishly unprecedented. It's totally fair to personally not believe in Bryce. Plenty of sports "journalists" need to write stories, and that's an easy narrative path... But I think that actual people in the know rank Bryce much higher. That's the fun thing about sports... we shall see!

      Regardless of how we got here, any rational fan should be excited by how well Bryce played down the stretch. Anyone not happy about that level of play either doesn't know what they're looking at, or they're still trying to drive tired narratives. Obviously, Cam had an all-time rookie season, and I'm not putting the two in the same basket yet, but as someone who has watched every snap of Panthers football since the start of the new millennium (Im old), Bryce was playing at a higher level at the end of 2024 than Cam was at the end of 2012 (his 2nd season). Cam continued to develop into MVP form, something Bryce has to prove, but as someone who watched both (and will stan for Cam always), Bryce was playing at a higher level to end year 2 than Cam did.  Go watch the film if you dont believe me. None of that means anything for the future. But the people who said BY9 couldnt play in this league are wrong.   That being said, the only thing that matters is this year. #20 is perfectly fair IMO going into the season. I mean think about it, how would you rank him??!  His in-season turnaround is one of the wildest things I've ever seen... how do you rank a guy who looked like a massive bust in September and by January was consistently playing at a top 10 level? My excitement level is pretty damn high heading into this season. There were throws from the Chiefs game onward where Bryce had Drew Brees levels of anticipation. Im excited to see what he can do with a full deck on offense, something we really never gave Cam. Really hope and expect Bryce to move up this list this season.

      Not really, the only QB's (other than Anthony Richardson) ranked below him are new to their teams as a placeholder starter or drafted in 2024 or 2025, not a lot of gymnastics to get there. It's not about how many that is, if it's 20, 12, or 2... It means there isn't a QB who's team has committed to them for the long term right now that they have ranked below Bryce. That's not a great thing.
