Anyone have any special ingredients??

I use less beans and black beans because they’re not as strong
I add corn because there are fewer beans and I still want that satisfying carb feeling when you eat
I use a lot of meat
I use a lot of chopped onion, green pepper, Jalepenos, habeneros, celery.
The spices I use are salt, pepper, cumin, chili powder, coriander, cocoa, garlic powder

I put everything in the crockpot with tomato sauce, and canned diced tomatoes

I play around for 3 hours until it tasted right

Then the next day I put it back on the crock pot 3 hours before it’s time to eat. I add a second round of chopped veggies (no celery this time because it stays too hard if put in too late.) I like that late round of veggies because it adds a layer of a more fresh and less softened veggie crunch to the other flavors that are mixed throughout.

I sliced up some mangos this time in case people want a sweet and hot dynamic. It tasted pretty damn good to be honest and is a nice mix up from a traditional cheese and sour cream bowl!


Anyway, I freaking love chili and it’s so much fun to play around with! Anyone got any little special tips and tricks to your famous chili recipes. I try something a little different most of the time, just to see what works.

Sounds tasty.

Packers CB Jaire Alexander out here pregame cutting and backpedaling on that ankle he rolled in practice this week. A game time decision, the pregame work is a big part of deciding his availability

I can see us running the ball like all teams who beat Dallas tend to do.

Possessions will be at a premium and shockingly, Joe Barry’s top 10 scoring defense that relys on the bend over willingly and take most of it, but get shy at then end so they can’t finish but still got something out of it defense stands a real good chance at giving these studs blue balls.

If we can score 7 while they score 3, we win this game.

Turnovers are the other big factor.

But there are avenues that aren’t far fetched at all where we win this game.

Fuck. I've never bet on an NFL game and want to put a bet down on the Pack, that's how confident I am.

Any suggestions?

I bet on Aaron Jones.

Let's fucking do this. All that is relevant is the game at hand. Expectations and season play don't matter.

Dillon and Heath out. Jaire and Watson in.

18 WR Malik Heath
28 RB AJ Dillon
30 CB David Long Jr.
48 S Benny Sapp III
57 LB Brenton Cox Jr.
72 T Caleb Jones

This is a decent inactive list. Cant complain.

Watson and Alexander are active today!!!

This is sweet news!!

Youngest team in the league is a big handicap. First year starting QB is a handicap.

But who have we lost for the year besides Eric Stokes? There can’t be a healthier team in the league this year. Granted, we’ve missed guys all throughout the season and our report has been a mile long. But we have almost no injuries right now and have lost almost no one. That’s a huge edge. The guys had all year to jell and now it’s time to peak at the right time.

Exactly!! Went to the grocery store and talking to cowboys fans they are worried and feel Packers have nothing to lose. Niners fan seems to be rooting for Packers believing that is the easier opponent.

Tex there comes a time when a fan has to choose sides. Pick a winner man, today’s the day you HAVE to do it!

I’m glad AJ Dillon is out. He’s incredibly slow to get moving and is easily destroyed by smaller penetrating defenses. Having Dillon out forced us to feed Jones and he’s the matchup we want.

I would have liked the 1-2 punch.

I think you want to see Love under center today. Let Jones get moving downhill early so the penetration can’t stop him before the play begins.

Pregame show is only 30mins?

who the fuck is this emo honkey trying to hype up the game?

Thanks, RG. To be clear, I only took this job because MadTown asked me to - when the boss asks, it's kinda like an order hahahaha. Generally I don't do gameday posts - I'd rather sit and watch the game. So it's almost game time. I'll be signing off. Let's win this thing and do it again - 3 more times.
