The Swamp

I don't know where it is in relation to anywhere, but we got a fantastic meal at this place called La Cosecha that was like an indoor upscale food court. Nice bars, several restaurants and you just bought from wherever you wanted and found a seat and it was all latin inspired - peruvian, el salcador...

Things like this are one of the many reasons I enjoy and for which I keep coming back to this message board.

After listening to way too many preview podcasts, I'm going with Portugal as my dark horse pick. Expecting big things from Diego Jota, with Ronaldo left fuming on the bench. I'll bet you one foot ferry ride from Bremerton that Ronaldo starts every match unless they're clear to advance by their last...

Giff would be well to remember that snitches get stitches.

I may have mentioned it before, but on one side of our floor has the C-suite offices. They always seem to have snacks and sodas even though we were cut off on this side of the door some time ago. No biggie, I can handle my own food, for all I know an individual buys it and brings it...I really don't...

Any other weekend I'd be there. And I'm still more likely to show up than Mister D.

IKR! And that should be in the wheelhouse for him.

This was a weird week.

Also, if you're more offended by the Power Ballad list, I think that's a reasonable thing to take issue with as well.

Not sure if we're talking the same thing, but I feel like he's becoming (or more outwardly being) more content to say "there's nothing I can do about this bad thing so I won't worry about it" which is very much not how my brain works. I believe he's acknowledged that that mindset can only...

I do enjoy some drew, but man he's had some strange takes lately.

How would you know if a game ran long?

There was a lot I didn't agree with in that post so I let it slide.

(LeBron won't play outside of a major market and I think it's LA or Phoenix. Bronny is not good enough for a draft pick, but if he was it would be because he'd be bringing his dad, aging or not.

I married my high school girlfriend. We go married when we were 26. Still quite young, but we knew that committing that fully (and legally) prior to that age was really problematic. Good luck to them, but their brains haven't fully wired... Way too young. This is the way. Everyone I knew who got ma...

I think it's the latter that caused the former. Good judges of character, dogs.

Yeah, there may be a meta joke somewhere I'm missing or they knew what they are doing but I think the second is more likely.

I wish this guys name was Nail or lenny dykstra was in the bullpen. This is an institute of high-ish learning! Mixing metaphors is gauche!

Two things: there's going to be a whole lot of guys getting popped for gambling and how do you lose all 25 bets you make on your team's games?

I love the one with the wood columns (moorings?) where it looks like one is leaning on the other and enjoying the view of the white building in a very anthropomorphic moment. #10 in your programs.

Then I got my mind right and went for either Golden Grahams, Cinnamon Toast Crunch, or Kix doused in sugar.

I bought a box of golden grahams for the first time in ages. Tasty.

Not for anything, fellas, but am I the only one here that sees a stink raised by a supporter of TFG and immediately assumes it's false? The boy who cried wolf situation playing out? No, you’re not the only one. I assume it’s bullshit or trivial until proven otherwise . New album name, called it.

I used to piss off a friend who inexplicably followed DePaul sports by always calling them the Blue Deacons. Drove him nuts. He was from southern Indiana, so I thought it was odd, but I guess indiana caresses Chicago.

And congrats! Let's (your kid) get (earn) that bread (diploma)!

No cap.

It’s a double dick move!

The "steers clear of trouble thing" doesn't make much sense. He's been charged in another state so by definition he's still in trouble with the law. However, they aren't going to put him in jail, and I don't think there will be an ankle monitor at all. It'd be funny, though. All that said,...

So I think Collins is right that it’s bad to have a politician run for office on a promise to take down the opposition leader. And that charges should only be brought where there is clear evidence of serious crimes. I’m on the fence as to whether falsifying business records qualifies. Well, 34 coun...

That is a pretty safe spot for most golfers.

Wouldn't you like to know weather boy.

Yup. The runner could only go back, it wasn't even inherently the SS ball. Just awful. They changed the rule in 2013. Runners can advance on an IF fly rule. It was the correct call. I thought that was always the rule. If you wanted to try to tag up, so be it. Batter's out, runners are on their own.
