Open Thread: What are you watching?

Alright, folks. It’s been a crazy three or so weeks at Real Salt Lake, so let’s take a step back. It’s time for another open thread, and this week, I want to know what you’re watching.

Whether that’s on TV, sports, movies — whatever’s on your mind, let’s hear it. I’ll start, as usual.

Me? I’ve been grinding my way through Star Trek: The Next Generation, which is sort of an annual ritual. I don’t know if that’s healthy, but I’d be lying if I said I hadn’t thought about an Enterprise D-specific football club. (I’m not much for Parrisses Squares, personally.)

NCC-1701-D FC Lineup (4-4-2)
