When talking about Sam Howell's projected season total passing yards for 2023 (about 4700), I tried to research in real time what the franchise record was, and erroneously came up with Jay Schroeder's 4109 in 1996. Bob knew that was wrong the minute I said it (as I should have), and kindly didn't call me out too harshly because he's a mensch. It didn't take long for us to correct the mistake (Kirk has the record with 4917 in 2016) with a little bit deeper and better targeted google dive.
The reason I came up with the Schroeder thing? A google search for "Washington single season passing record" and quick scroll down to this link on the team's official site:
Sheesh.

Last night's libation, because it matters:
Minglewood Distilling Company in Wooster Ohio just opened a few years ago. An interesting place built in an old building from the 1880s that once housed the Minglewood Coal & Ice supply business. Had a nice time there last year with some dear friends, did the tasting thing, etc. A good overall experience I can recommend. The spirit of choice last night was their straight bourbon (they have a lot of rather interesting flavored whiskeys and other spirits as well, including, at least when we were there, a Dill Pickle flavored whiskey. I kid you not. That was something to try ... once). Brought home a bottle of their straight bourbon, which, in their description, is a "High Rye Bourbon." Honest opinion? A gateway rye I might suggest for folks still getting into the bourbon world. Some nice bite, yes, and pleasant enough, but light, both in body and color.
That is all. Sláinte.
