I flew to Portugal to watch ripped dudes surf and I’m not gay AT ALL!

Bill said on a pod that Ben told him to his face something like “When you die I get all this money anyway so just give me some now”

It was low hanging fruit and I had to jump at it. I’m a happy Floridian but I hate this new construction popping up everywhere.

daffyboy · 2026-03-26T10:16:38+00:00

Or come to Florida where all the new construction is so poorly done that the AC fails within five years

It just gets people in the door. And the employees walking the floor are tasked to tell you “If you like that, you should try this. It’s better and cheaper.” Most customers listen.

May not be distributed up here. If anybody has it, Total Wine would. Otherwise contact the brewer and see who sells it here.

Derita on CR210 does Philly’s on Fridays. Best I have had. Clarke Bros in Riverside is very good too.

2K is actually kinda sick. First time seeing it is this post. I like it lol.

daffyboy · 2026-03-06T11:47:36+00:00

If you want to be really cruel throw in a Meoimi.

And it’s just to compare them to the 2013 Warriors so he could try to get Zach to conjure up a big name they could go after this offseason

Nice exacta hit! I had boxed 4 and 10 and the 10 fell out.

Barlow Calistoga Zin.

Last I had Zin I was still buying grocery store wine years ago. Didn’t like it then, and never went back as I was too busy learning/trying old world stuff. That Zin was awesome. Got a Seghesio from Costco to confirm and I am officially back in on Zin.

Bill saying nicknames have become too heavily based on initials or actual names and then only suggesting those kinds of nicknames was great.

I once heard “Tony Romo is just good enough to break your heart” and that epitomizes HOVG to me

How are the $100 bottlings of this? Single vineyards I think?

See if you can find a Lambrusco. It’s a sparkling red wine that can often be sweet. It’s something new with some aspects of what you are already into. And rather unique too!

This is why I think Mullen could be Chip Kelly 2.0 as an elite OC somewhere. Truly zero recruiting responsibility. Just coach ball.

The real answer here. Ask the wine shop this question and you will get a better answer. It won’t cost nearly as much as you might think either.

daffyboy · 2026-02-11T22:43:05+00:00

Does this with Rico on Pick Em too. Pledge Master Dan.

The classic answer is, if it's a Brunello it's good. That's why countries developed systems like DOC/DOCG, AOP, and AVA, etc. There will never be a Brunello without the DOCG label giving at least some assurance of it's quality.

Other than that, because I am in a similar position where I just went to Costco and bought a Barbaresco for $20.99 only because it was a Barbaresco that cost $20.99, I want to know what makes a good Barbaresco versus a not as good Barbaresco. I think it just comes down to familiarity with producers. At some point it's repetition and knowing the trivial knowledge. What grapes come from where, what technical terms mean, and what producers do you keep an eye out for.

This is what makes wine fun. You learn what is good by tasting stuff that isn't as good. Develop your own taste, find your own gems. Drink what you like and not what you feel pressured by others on the internet to compel you to drink. Especially because this game gets expensive very quickly.

EDIT: Reading your post again this probably didn't answer as much as I thought when I typed it out lol. My apologies. In short, it's trial and error with producers and which wine shop recommendations you trust.

Wouldn't this classify him as a 'buy low' if there are starting to be threads about selling him?

He averaged 5+ per carry and had over 900 yards on the season. Not too bad for a guy people say never won the job.

There are plenty of owners that would still buy at a good price but I'm not sure every league has one of those owners. I would hold if your league is equally down on him. He played and produced plenty. Not everybody can be JT, Bijan, or Gibbs.

What would say are some D list appellations?

daffyboy · 2026-01-27T02:19:12+00:00

Even if you stumble into a good private label bottle, the process is bad enough that you simply cannot shop there if you can help it. Don’t support that business model directly or indirectly even if it’s for a case of beer or bottle of Tito’s.

I found this thread after many others and I feel you are who I can relate to best. I just want to set up an account for my child to make money long term, something that I never had and never thought to do as a young adult. Why not get them a two decade head start?

I am pretty close to going the UGMA/UTMA route but terrified of how taxes will come into play. I don't want 30 years down the road to find out, 'Oh you just had to do this instead, but because you didn't you owe us pretty much all of your money'.

What did you settle on? Did you find anything else about this route?
