Fried pickle chips are as good as fried pickle spears are bad. The lazy fool who came up with frying spears deserves to be kicked in the taint.

And as an interesting aside, SBN is where a lot of people first heard of PFT Commenter

Who?

I just remember PFT from the MMBM on SBN and never really associated him with the barstool brand (outside of being a satirical version of it).

If Bomani Jones’ radio audience is any indication, ESPN viewers aren’t gonna get the satire. Bomani’s timeline after having PFT on is pretty amazing/sad/awful.

Mmpf

I think we have different definitions of great...

Who would you hang up on faster if they offered a trade: Presti or Belichick?

They said Oklahoma, not Texas. More like $8B worth of fast food.

You’re right that Soil health is a problem for conventional cropping systems. There are some fairly easy things that can be done to improve soil and assist with building better topsoil. Things like cover crops, crop rotations, mulching, and no till/reduced tillage (all things that have been researched and taught at…

Natural doesn’t necessarily mean safe. I’ll take my chances with the synthetic stuff that has a two week half-life and no effect on humans.

It’s not really a new way of approaching things. It’s just abandoning the technology that we’ve been reliant on for the past few generations. It’s avoiding the things that allowed us to have cheap abundant produce. There’s a big difference in being a gardener and a farmer. Sure, it’s possible to grow plenty of things…

This usually has more to do with the types of apples and other crops grown and sold in the US than any chemicals added. Varieties that don’t bruise and last longer on the shelves tend to be a little more bland and less aromatic. We have perfect looking (not what I’d call perfect, but round, uniformly sized, symmetric)…

We did the same in the 1980s in parts of the US. I don’t ever remember hearing about Zika, Dengue, or West Nile in the US back then.

It depends on the crop, but generally the larger the field the more likely pests will find it. Sure you can grow some great produce in your garden with no pesticides, but once you’re looking at the scale needed to feed a city it just doesn’t work.

Kamel was likeable but really bad at radio. Just kind of bland. The most popular eson guys are pretty polarizing. Rusillo is unlikeable and still has a job.

or something similar to the annoying sensors that set off the annoying sounds when someone doesn’t have the seat belt buckled (or if you set a bag of groceries in the passenger seat). If the kid is strapped in, it beeps when the car is turned off. Of course after the third time it wakes up the baby, everyone would…

That’s nobody’s business but the Turks

The fact that all these fake trades keep getting so hyped means that people are not acknowledging it. Ainge and co are selling hope, and it’s working. All their fans believe that they’re this close and “if we can get one guy then this year is our year.” Somewhere, Sam Hinke is watching all this, and he’s pissed.

It’s basically a better version of “the process”, but without full on tanking. They’re collecting assets and selling hope to the fans because they know they can’t beat LeBron or Golden State.
