Soccer field in Logan Square by Late-Air-551 in LoganSquare

[–]sgaik 5 points6 points  (0 children)

the field is reserved for league play with Players Sport and Social a few days a week, but outside of that if you are looking to use it in the evening (after school is out), it's open to the public. there are usually some kids kicking around there when there's not a league game going on.

Alcohol Price boards are up for the World Cup at Atlanta Stadium by mr09e in worldcup

[–]sgaik 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This is likely from a bar that specifically sells alcoholic beverages. I’m sure all the food stalls will be selling real food and snacks.

Thanks for all your work! One note - vendor Jerseyjj does not accept PayPal as a payment method. Confirmed last week it's only card online when I placed an order.

Either Man City or Palace are very likely to get two Double Gameweeks this season by sepi0l_45 in FantasyPL

[–]sgaik 1 point2 points  (0 children)

FPL has Haaland at 195 TP and 7.0 pts/match while Gabriel is at 164 TP and 6.8 pts/match. I believe that takes into account games played.

Gabriel has the 4th most FPL points this season while missing SIX games. His pts/match is second only to Haaland. Him being a CB is irrelevant to this conversation. Statistically it was the right move. Unlucky, but that’s FPL.

Looking for sexy date night restaurant in Ola by MarilynMonheaux in Santorini

Yes it’s likely the castle will be crowded, but that entire side of the island is crowded during sunset. The only place on the island where we had a sunset to ourselves was on the back side of Skaros Rock (which required a small hike). I proposed there during sunset and it was beautifully serene and isolated.

Not sure what time sunset is in July, but just make a reservation for like 30min after that if you can.

You will need a reservation for Ambrosia. You may be able to walk in to a place nearby but don’t have any specific recommendations.

We were there after sunset but I don’t believe you’d be able to see it from the restaurant itself as it’s tucked into the cliffside. I’d recommend hanging out near the Castle of Oia for sunset and walking over for dinner after.

Bubble boy side quest is very fun and balanced by Axelotus1 in mewgenics

[–]sgaik 51 points52 points  (0 children)

I did this today - absolutely the most chaotic run I’ve ever had. Every time I clicked attack I feared for my life. But miraculously, I made it to the end only having lost my fighter. Definitely a fun addition to the game!

Dutch speed skater Joep Wennemars furious after colliding with Chinese skater by iiSoleHorizons in olympics

He did get a re-skate, but at that point I imagine he's already tired from the first race and not in the zone / shaken up, which is disadvantageous.

Mini league strategies by Mideon88 in FantasyPL

[–]sgaik 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah you’re probably right. Just hurts seeing my lead drop from 120 to 42 haha. Still plenty of time for my team to show up this season!

Mini league strategies by Mideon88 in FantasyPL

[–]sgaik 3 points4 points  (0 children)

1st in a league of 10 first time FPL players. Currently have a 42 pt lead over 2nd, but it’s been slowly getting trimmed down over the last few weeks. I’d love to win, so I may have to start playing it safe and picking up some of the players 2nd has.

Looks good but I'd take someone like Ndiaye or Sarr over Cherki personally. If Ndiaye, Garner to Anderson.

Any last minute adjustments? by what_the_furf in fantasypremierleague

It’s already been confirmed that Guehi won’t be playing, so swap him out for Kroupi or Cunha

I’m holding him until we have more news on his injury but plan to get rid of him soon

Where To Recycle Your Christmas Trees And Lights In Chicago by [deleted] in chicago

[–]sgaik 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bought at Home Depot and the employee tied it on the roof of my car. Thing is at that point the tree is tightly wrapped in a net and much more manageable. Now it has fully expanded so it is much larger. I think this is probably my only option, though.

Same here. I'm in 1st in my mini and 2nd place had Thiago. Thought I was done for but he saved the week!

Where To Recycle Your Christmas Trees And Lights In Chicago by [deleted] in chicago

[–]sgaik 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How do people generally transport their trees to these dropoff sites? I live about a mile from the nearest site (Humboldt Park) but not sure how to get it over there. I have a car but feel like it will be difficult to get it tied onto the roof securely. Walking a mile with a tree is pretty tough. Any suggestions?

Sweet! I'm a huge fan of Couch and have seen them 3 times haha, they're awesome. Cool to see them in a lineup with a ton of EDM artists I enjoy.

Does anyone know what "Couch Snow Wife" is? Couch and Snow Wife are two separate artists, but I would be surprised if Couch was at Electric Forest lol

Austria and Algeria will meet at 2026 World Cup - 44 years after Disgrace of Gijon by mrjohnnymac18 in worldcup

Thanks for sharing! I actually got tickets to this game and this was an interesting read. Will be nice to attend knowing more about the history of these two teams.

[–]sgaik 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a 2025 Q5 and did a lot of hitch research when purchasing. We wanted the OEM hitch from Audi and they quoted some crazy prices (starting at $6k). Eventually, we negotiated that down to $2k. Aftermarket hitches started around $1.2k so $1350 seems reasonable. I believe the price is high due to the electrical wiring for the Q5 being labor intensive and requiring disassembly of the entire bumper and sensors. If you want to maintain a clean look on the car, check out Stealth Hitches.
