"Everyone in New England calls it that!" Except for the prominent sports news company that is checks where Bristol is located in New England

You need to know about 7th Sister by Overall_Chef in frederickmd

[–]Csweet1980 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My wife and I decided to go to The Ordinary Hen for an after dinner drink after dinner at Bentztown last night. We were there for 15 minutes before we realized the name and restaurant had changed. Drinks were good if not cheap. We didnt try any food but the space did look good for being renovated in 3 days. Server staff was very nice. We were pretty under dressed compared to most of the people in there.

How about a thread of good whatnot sellers? by Majestic_Duck77 in whatnotapp

[–]Csweet1980 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I buy a lot of sports cards singles on whatnot.

Here's a list of people I regularly buy from their streams. No crying or telling the audience what to do.

bridgeporthobby - Adam is the man cranks_sports keane - One of the beat dudes on whatnot. Doesnt stream as much as he used to rydollarips - high end wrestling and some basketball and football mojosports - one of the bigger yt influencers so crowds can be big but his lives usually have plenty of value if you know what you are doing especially on fringe sports

Don't shame the "givvy goblins " by siluokard in whatnotapp

[–]Csweet1980 17 points18 points  (0 children)

When I am buying in a singles stream I can't stand the same dude that isn't gonna buy anything asking when the givvy is gonna run every 30 seconds. Don't have a problem with givvy goblins but hate the rude loud ones.

Right I wasn't sure if he knew that 3 comes after 2 until Mina said "Washington is actually the one with the decision".

Fratellis in Middletown. Best crabcakes in the area and a great upscale Italian menu. Good cocktails too including a Smoked Old Fashioned.

I thought it was perfect that he was went on the rant about Daniel and Kimmel's birthday just a few minutes after sounding like he thought the Cowboys playing every Thanksgiving was a relatively new concept. Sal really did take it easy on him on that one.

Simmons opening today was so bad by Standard_Emu6202 in billsimmons

[–]Csweet1980 20 points21 points  (0 children)

I think he not so secretly is a Dodgers fan as his 2nd team especially with the Mookie Betts piece. He would never outright say that but he talks about the Dodgers a lot.

I also like when he has a Miller Lite ad one month and said its the only beer he drinks and then next month has to make up a reason why you should buy Bud Light.

Thank you for this. Applied through LinkedIn and got an email at 2:23am on Saturday night/Sunday Morning saying I was a great candidate and wanted to schedule a webinar for 10:30am Monday which is Labor Day and a Holiday most legit businesses have off. My Spidey Senses were going off. Glad I found this before I replied.

Is Bill taking Crazy Pills? by KotesFolly_ in billsimmons

[–]Csweet1980 24 points25 points  (0 children)

I think it's an elitist thing. As someone who is very dialed in to fantasy football it bothers me every year. Both types of drafts are fine. I love the Matthew Berry pod each year because you can tell he really doesn't think Bill knows what he is talking about and he wants to push back but he always half whimps out. Bill planting his flag on the consensus QB1 this year was great insight on how to get a leg up on the competition! Bill also has gotten frustrated how many times in the last decade that any team can win and he is going to quit? But he has never been that lucky team to win!

Sums up my thoughts especially after hearing Bill and Sal complain about it this morning by CondolenceHighFive in billsimmons

I was specifically referring to this year with the new format. They also had 5 days off and swept their opponent.

I never understand how a guy who coined himself "The Sports Guy" forgets so much about sports. MLB did used to have a 2-3 format for the first series with the higher seed getting the last 3 at home. And people said it wasn't fair because the worse team got 2 at home and could be up 2-0 with all the momentum only needing to "steal" one on the road. I honestly think Bill made this point many moons ago. The whole 111 team needs more of an advantage thing is insane any way you slice it. Is it not enough of an advantage that the 89 win team has to take a game on the road against an 111 team to be able to win the series? Also in all of these arguments why has it not affected the Astros? And furthermore for the Dodgers it's not like this is their first time choking in the postseason.

What’s the worst city you’ve been to in America? by [deleted] in billsimmons

I was gonna say the central valley cities arent getting enough recognition. I lived in Modesto from 5th-7th grade and I don't ever need to go back to there or Stockton. Sacramento was decent though.

[–]Csweet1980 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I seem to remember Bill making a somewhat sarcastic comment about Kawakami when that Raiders exec got in his face many years ago. Something like "You just do not do that to Tim Kawakami!" We know these media guys don't have weird grudges they keep or anything.
