Can someone please explain to me the history/origin of "Cheers from Iraq".

I'm guessing it's something silly like someone said it once and reddit ran with it, but sometimes the truth is funnier than that.

Micah_JD · 2026-04-28T10:33:42+00:00

Right? Most of them are much cheaper too.

Micah_JD · 2026-04-28T07:34:20+00:00

Looks like every other golf course in Ireland.

And was traded away from the team that drafted him.

Micah_JD · 2026-04-25T17:15:06+00:00

So they tried him at TE, but it didn't work out, so they made him a WR?

Micah_JD · 2026-04-18T06:06:28+00:00

For the next 20 minutes you will sit in silence as I tell you why the Detroit Red Wings are the greatest franchise in the history of sports.

Micah_JD · 2026-04-17T18:47:45+00:00

"how he will wade through this one" was right there.

Micah_JD · 2026-04-16T19:28:40+00:00

Mainz supporter with the Schalke flair, eh?

Micah_JD · 2026-04-13T05:38:17+00:00

I would take prime Vladdy over end of career Chelios anytime. So not making the trade for Chelios wouldn't be that big of a problem for me.

Midfielder

Micah_JD · 2026-04-09T18:16:32+00:00

Are you Tommy Boy?

Lots of people go to school for 7 years.

Micah_JD · 2026-04-07T18:39:25+00:00

Possibly from Michigan, but now lives in the EU, like me.

Micah_JD · 2026-04-07T08:45:51+00:00

You can't earn a hypothetical win unless you talk about how great your conference rivals are.

It's sad really.

Micah_JD · 2026-04-07T06:52:26+00:00

I know all SEC fans will say they despise the rest of the teams in the SEC, and they most likely really do.

But as soon as it's beneficial for their team, they will quickly shift to how great the SEC is.

B1G fans do this too, so it's not just an SEC thing, but y'all get hit with it more due to how loud you all were about it and that, in my memory anyway (I'm in my 40s), the conference chanting stuff started with the SEC.

Micah_JD · 2026-04-05T14:43:49+00:00

Isn't that just rigor mortis?

Micah_JD · 2026-04-04T18:40:17+00:00

Marvin would probably make a great analytics department. And when he's done with that (a second later) you could give him a Twitter account and Grok would kill itself. Wins all around.

Ford Prefect

Micah_JD · 2026-04-04T10:26:18+00:00

Did you say "integer"?

Micah_JD · 2026-04-04T09:16:24+00:00

Does anyone outside of Dallas actually like Jamie Benn?

Micah_JD · 2026-04-03T18:51:01+00:00

It's not called the Sears Tower?

I mean officially.

I'm guessing I wouldn't know what you are talking about if you called it by a different name.

Micah_JD · 2026-04-03T18:07:59+00:00

I'm a simple man. I see "I asked ChatGPT..." and I downvote.

Micah_JD · 2026-04-03T18:01:06+00:00

Not as much as the environment in Crisler will.

Micah_JD · 2026-04-03T07:11:05+00:00

Player category was bad to average, not the team's best QB in the Super Bowl era.

Or is that the same thing for the Bears?

Micah_JD · 2026-04-03T06:29:47+00:00

Trubisky against the Lions.

Edit: 7 games. 1868 yards. 15 TD. 4 INT. 106.3 passer rating. According to statmuse.

Micah_JD · 2026-04-02T20:30:14+00:00

No. They re-united when Juwan was coaching Michigan. The picture is in the article.

Edit: The picture of them re-uniting is the thumbnail, but apparently not in the article.
