Going to order a pizza or two and watch the game with my kids, wife is at school tonight.
I've got about 6 different selections of soda in my dorm room and a big old bucket of Pub Mix. Has anyone ever had that before? They sell them at Target, and they're AMAZING.
Going by their last preseason games and the fact that we have two good offense with two of the better QB in the NFL right now going up against at best two weak defenses. So are we going to have more TDs or incomplete passes in this game.

I found it at the end of the candy aisle. There's a bunch of different mixes, but the Pub mix is a big plastic can that's about a foot high. It has pretzels and crackers galore!
