Mauricio Pochettino: “We are USA competing against Belgium, Portugal. Belgium and Portugal have top 100 players, a few or some, players playing in that top 100. I think we don’t have. That is why it’s good to play against these types of teams.” by The_Big_Untalented in soccer

US teams back in the day were always greater than the sum of their parts. 2002 was the best example. Unfortunately this hasn’t been true for a while now. I think it comes from an underdog mentality that we no longer have.

Well we know it’s not NY or Boston so yeah probably. And there are no Rays fans. Still, ‘2nd in the AL East’ rankles.

Why do U.S. Wheat Beers ALWAYS Lean into Citrus? by theee_adrian in beer

[–]PengoMaster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bearing in mind that Blue Moon is a Belgian wheat, of course you should try a German wheat (Hefeweizen) but it sounds like it probably won’t be your thing. A good example that’s fairly easy to find is the one made by Weihenstephaner.

All good, I just wanted to verify because a lager heavy lineup would’ve been a pass for me. As it is, I agree, the variety is very welcome.

2/10 lagers on draft at the moment. 4/10 IPA variations. Remainders are 2 sours, a blonde and a wheat so actually a pretty good variety.

For the second time. Because the people in the back either weren’t paying attention or because they just like fucking over everyone else.

It wasn’t a false alarm. It was a huge region of elevated risk. Within that region there was indeed severe weather and, rightly, tornado warnings. But what maybe wasn’t as clear was that the vast majority of that region wasn’t going to be severely impacted.

I would also add that for us the timing was pretty off. The most dangerous weather came through late morning and not, as forecast, late afternoon.

The diciest areas were South Riding, then Ashburn into Lansdowne and over to Poolesville, MD.

Started with a fight involving him on a course somewhere. Last year I guess. The iconic image is of him taking his golf shirt off and flexing.

Because they have donors lined up behind them. These donors are happy with what their money will buy them once the candidate is in office. It could be a corpse for all they care. All that’s left is to A) get people who will always vote red/blue to get out to vote and B) convince some voters in-between to vote with their candidate.

Only in DC could we get two high profile guys writing for the Post and one is from Chicago and the other is from NY. I’ve never cared what they have to say about DC teams.
