For me it’s French press, half a cup of Don Francisco Colomia Supremo, hot water. Brew 4 minutes, serve with 2 teaspoons sugar. Done.

8 O’Clock is so good - gotta be best value for money.

I also think it’s a bit different if you’re buying coffee by the pound to make at home as opposed to getting a cup at a local coffee shop. I will splurge for fancy coffee to make at home because it’s still cheaper on a per-cup basis. But when I’m buying a cup to drink while waiting on the train, I head to 7-Eleven.

Yup. Good coffee is good; but you don’t need to pay a barista to fuss around a ceramic cone for it. Aeropress or french press at home, paired with any reasonable bean, will be delicious. For me, the grocery store cutoff is Dunkin’ Donuts or 8 o’clock. Both are pretty good, but you don’t want to go any cheaper.

I’m down with hating precious shit, but a pour over cup of non-over roasted beans is a revelation. Its nervy and fresh instead of making me want to take a dump.

Artisanal coffee is bullshit, but cheap coffee is ass. There’s a bell curve, with the top being good stuff you buy in a grocery store. Rule of thumb: if you’re paying more than a dollar an ounce, you’re buying bullshit; but if you’re paying less than $5 a pound, you’re buying ass.

Have you ever had a cappuccino from one of those coffee hipsters where they put the little heart on top of the foam so you know how much they love coffee? Tell me that shit’s not good.

How can the defense be this blowful when Clay Matthews has long hair and is on commercials.

My last season of playing rugby, I took a pretty normal tackle Saturday and still had a headache when I went to practice on Tuesday. I had had a number of concussions in the Army, and I figured I had just bruised something, because I didn’t any of the signs I was used to. I really didn’t like our new coach, but I was…

nah

Popovich: Makes a bunch of money off the backs of fairly compensated employees

Hillary’s still evolving on gay rights, she and Huma will probably just get a civil union.

Cross country produces some of the harrier situations in sports.

She didn’t tell anyone to step back though? The fact that she mentioned letting workers do their work implies that they should be allowed to continue building the pipeline and destroying tribal lands

Okay, but one side is praying, and the other side has untrained “security” with dogs, they have tanks and rubber bullets and guns, and they’re the ones committing violence and actively destroying the sacred sites. No consequences. What now?

In order for the workers to do their jobs, they have to remove the protesters. In order to remove the protesters, you have to disrespect their right to protest.

I actually don’t really watch football anymore but I read this just for the Schilling/Tomsula bits. I thought I would miss Emmitt more, but the Schilling piece is fantastic.

The worst part of The Ringer is that they have David Shoemaker on staff, but barely use him.

Players are getting pulled more often, and the players getting pulled are usually the ones playing the most high-profile positions (QB, RB, WR)
