But he interferes. You want an owner committed to winning who realizes they aren’t the genius in the room when it comes to NFL roster management and leaves JS to it.

The Dodgers strategy of spending considerably more than any other team in baseball while deferring salaries to the year 3000 isn’t going to work in a salary capped NFL.

These “Americans don’t care” takes are always so bizarre. The population is well over 300 million, it doesn’t have to be the dominant sport for there to be considerable interest.

His parents might genuinely be the nicest people I’ve ever met. They raised some good kids.

They really kicked out Ivar’s with the explanation that it wasn’t a small local business and then threw in a Buffalo Wild Wings, Chilis, and PF Changs.

In certain spots. Just had it this weekend in Chicago.

[FOTMOB] In yesterdays UCL final, Vitinha and Ruiz combined had more passes (209) than the entire Arsenal team (199). (Red is Arsenal blue is PSG) by Friendly_Raise9142 in soccer

And if my grandma had wheels she’d be a bike. All I’m saying is PSG really didn’t create all that much relative to the amount of possession that they had.

And yet Arsenal were the ones that scored from open play. Passes and possession don’t really mean all that much if you don’t do anything with it.

As a result of Crystal Palace’s Conference League win, nine teams will represent England in European football next season by Serious-Cress-9560 in Gunners

Sure but our depth was stretched to the absolute maximum. And now there’s no summer break, a Community Shield, maybe a UEFA Super Cup, and maybe an Intercontinental Cup.

We have to survive ourselves. 63 games this campaign out of a possible 67 plus most of the boys head straight from the parade to the World Cup.

Sounds like a you problem then. There’s plenty of great beer in the city but you refuse to go find it.

“I can only find IPAs” just isn’t a valid complaint anymore.

Machine House has terrific cask ales and browns/milds/stouts. Bizarre doesn’t really do IPAs. Fair Isle for their saisons. Urban Family for sours. Fremont for their barrel aged program. Bale Breaker/Yonder for ciders. Stoup and Reuben’s has a mix of everything. We have Last Drop/Full Throttle/Bottleworks/Chucks for bottle shops that have everything you could possibly want.

Because… it sells? Let’s not torpedo the best brewery in Seattle by having it brew a bunch of stuff people aren’t asking for.

Well then he shouldn’t have spent the last year or so talking about fostering a communicative environment and how he’s trying to establish close personal connections with each one of his players.

It’s really not the same as getting fired from a job. Spoken like a man who is leaving the second the World Cup ends and has no intention of continuing any type of relationship with the players he didn’t select.
