<CTRL-F> “pool Boys”.

As soon as I read that, I just lost whatever interest I had in reading the rest of this. Jeez.

OP didn’t mention what their addiction was to, though.

Is it time to ban helmets? I don't think these hits happen if no one is wearing them. The supposed 'safety' provided by the helmets looks like is making players use their Head as a weapon. 

As a middle aged, first generation, Desi guy; this was eye opening. My condolences to you and your family. I am sorry for your loss. I want to write more, but I will refrain. I am going to reread this again as I have nephews, nieces and sons and daughters of friends that feel this sense of alienation.

The Bernoulli effect explanation is only a partial one. Its a lot more complicated that that to determine aerodynamic lift.

Plus he has never had players bad mouthing him. I remember reading how when Rickey Henderson played for him in SD towards the end of his storied career; he called a clubhouse meeting specifically to tell all the younger guys that they are not going to play for a better manager. When someone like Rickey; who can’t be…

+240. I came here to make the same exact ‘joke’. 

It’s really weird. I live in a large city but it is kinda difficult to find people, not just women, who like some of the things I do. Now granted I am into stuff that is all niche; but still I would think that finding someone to enjoy a few of such activities would be easy. Nope. I just have started going to things…

You should definitely look into the Amazon reviews for Haribo Sugar Free Gummi Bears.

I just wanted to let you know there’s ... like ... dozens of us. Don’t give up.

Thanks for your reply. I am a recovering alcoholic; but I never did drugs. Not because I am holier-than-thou; but because as a immigrant brown man I did not know how to get them and also did not want to jeopardize my status! :-) So I have less knowledge of opiate addiction. That Atlantic article was a good pointer for…

Does MLB test for these, or only PED’s? Also, aren’t these pain meds? And, did he get addicted to these from previous prescription meds for recovery from surgery? The indiscriminate prescription of pain meds is a proximate cause for a lot of the opioid crisis, right? Is MLB monitoring this? Is the Union? Are players…

I remember it as “Random violence followed by Committee meetings”.

I use it all the time too; George Will said that to Sam Donaldson on the Sunday morning Chatfest they were a part of.

I found that weird too. Write the damn date on it.

Another vegetable to never refrigerate is Potato. They start converting starch to sugar when they get cold; but this could be a good way to make sweet potatoes out of regular potatoes!! Onions and garlic should not be refrigerated either. Basically, if the grocery store does not keep it refrigerated; you should not. 

Coffeeshop in my area provides NO electrical outlets. Allows yo to stay for a while, but prevents squatters. 

I get that. I was just commenting that Looking at the match as just a 3-1 defeat doesn’t tell you how close it actually was. That’s all.

The Coutinho thing was wishful thinking on my part, I agree. The rest of your reply about the Barca needs are on point. Which is why I am underwhelmed with this signing of Griezmann. It is a year too late. Barca needed to address Midfield (especially Busquets), rightback (Sergi is a midfielder playing out of position…
