I’ve had sleep paralysis a LOT. It started in my early teens and I did not learn what it was until about 10 years later. So I spent a good part of my adolescence genuinely concerned that there might be an evil spirit trying to possess and take over my body. That is certainly what it vividly felt like. I’d wake up, or…

Let’s ask the people of India about the benefits of English benevolence or those of say Ireland, I mean surely they’re grateful.

So if a Nike subsidiary uses child labor today, it’s not on Nike because hey they would never pay a 10 year 25 cents an hour to sew shoes if that kid was in Eugene.

One of his first acts in office was to nominate right wing Republican Senator Judd Gregg of NH to be Secretary of Commerce. There was no need for that. There is no justification. The obstructionist Congress didn’t make him do it. Obama’s barely a liberal. It’s just that the Democratic Party has moved so far to the…

“Honey, tell me the truth. Are you going to be thinking of the President on our wedding night?”

Fwiw, at this point most MLS teams either own their own lower division team, or are affiliated with a usl team to whom they send developmental players. It’s in its infancy, but it’s the right idea.

I dunno, if the Buccaneers are any indication of pro sport medicine, seems like Tampa would be the most likely place for him to wind up with a stent.

On the other hand, the USMNT are a cobbled together mishmash of MLSers, fringe players in England, and Germans. The team has gotten results, but the process is missing. This is the ill Klinsmann came here to remedy, but you can’t expect him to come in and immediately graft on flair and style to a group of players…

HOT TAEK.

Anyone who had that much pressure put on them at such an absurdly young age I am a fan of. I honestly hope he finds some spark, something clicks, and he ends up closing his career out with a respectable MLS stent.

Neither was participating in “active play”. If they were, then it would have been offside.

I love sour beers. Or a good saison. Fuck IPAs.

I’ve had some pretty good goses, as well as some terrible and downright weird ones. I still want someone to brew a gose called “There Is A Light That Never Gose Out.”

Within five years, I guarantee IPA’s will be replaced as the trendy beer with Goses. A Gose is weird and unique enough that hipsters will flock to it. I’m sure it’s already happening, what with the mainstream popularity of IPA’s. I mean, Gose isn’t an unpleasant variety of beer, just...I don’t really ever want more…

100% with you. My dude is a brewer, so I go to Beer Events and talk with Beer People pretty often....I think the trend is waning with the people who actually make the beer, thank god, but I’m pretty fucking sick of XTREEME HOPTICAL RED PILL BITTER BOY IPA mania.

Can’t wait for my first trip to ATL later this month to experience this particular douchenozzlity firsthand. Funny enough, I don’t remember any of this from my trip to AL, but I think my overwhelming desire to shag my hostess (house, not restaurant) overshadowed my interest in local soft drink nomenclature.

It’s Ocotober, how could you exclude “random Pumkin’ IPA?

Hugs. There’s room for you at my “Friends of Oktoberfest” table.

Fuck IPA fever. I am so sick of wasting ten minutes per table explaining our vanilla espresso IPA, our 36,000,000-minute IPA, our Antidisestablishmentarianism IPA. Go hump a barrel of hops and GTFO of my face.
