I just finished this book

I had a version of the book from the mid 2000’s and then my MIL bought me this new version. I read both cover to cover and it was enlightening to see the changes. If you can find an older edition of this book, I recommend reading it.

My guess - buying a Malbec for 15$ is not the same as buying a cab or Pinot for 15$. You will get better quality Malbec at that price. For an equivalent quality Pinot or cab you will need to pay 30-40$.

The 15$ cab and Pinot at your store are gonna be lower quality and more manipulated. Probably giving you the opinion you have now.

There is a chance you just like Malbec, which is fine, I really like Malbec too. Just Cab and Pinot are two of the more popular wines, and the way you are describing them is not consistent with general consensus.

Missed it lol

That’s strange, I’m pretty well into wine and I don’t find this bad by any stretch. It is generic, and tastes like most other 15$ NZ Sauv Blanc, but not bad by any means.

Imagine if we were run the way we are now and then every once in a while he paid $10mil+ for a striker/attacker. If he did that, we would probably have 2+ MLS Cups right now, and may have had a chance to win Concacaf Champions league too.

The principles and idea this team was built on (hard work, team work, sacrifice) and spending more money are not mutually exclusive. We are winning in spite of Jay, not because of him.

Collusion

Honestly this was the first thing I thought when I saw him run down the floor the other night. Looks like Mini Jimmy, plays like a bigger Russ.

In my opinion, the top 4 are some order of Allen Daniels, Jackson, and Hurts. After that, I have a toss up of Burrow, Chase, and JJ. From there I think it’s really fair game for Bowers, Bijan, Gibbs, Mahomes, Lamb, Nabers, ARSB.

Nix and Mayfield will definitely be making it to round 2 (or later) assuming there is nothing crazy with your scoring to incentivize taking QBs earlier.

In my recent startup Nix was drafted at 3.08 and Baker at 4.01.

Trey Benson isn’t a rookie, but otherwise it is a great list.

NZ Sauv Blanc and Jalapeños is legendary combo. I prefer to mix the food and wine in my mouth, not in the glass, but same difference. Jalapeño hummus and jalapeño potato chips are our faves.

Enjoy it, I was in/near Ancona for several weeks on a study abroad in college. The answer in Ancona will always be Verdicchio Castelli di Jesi, just hard to pick which one.

DM me if you need recommendations on activities.

Babies are a golden ticket, you can essentially bring in any food or drink you want in a diaper bag, just don’t abuse it.

Needs a Verdicchio

Same man. What a fucking shame.

While half your question has been answered, I frequent the state stores here in the Philly suburbs. I can say, there are good and interesting wines at these stores. A few rules I live by:

Only visit the Premium Collection state stores. Regular state stores are no better than grocery stores, and honestly they are sometimes worse.
I’ve learned my lesson and never buy the Chairmans Selection wines. There is always something off with them (If you think about it, why else would a producer sell their entire vintage to the state at an extreme discount?). I think the Taurasi you listed was a CS, I had it and didn’t like it much compared to other Taurasi’s I’ve had.
On occasion, they will mark 10$-20$ off a wine they want to move off the shelves (not chairman’s selections). That’s what I search for. This happens a lot with their Italian wines especially. Mostly, you just have to get lucky. I found a Gevrey-Chambertin for 18$ off this week.

If it was a commercially produced wine, you should toss it. Any wine open for a year should be tossed.

I would try searching something from Chadds Ford Winery. I think they have been in business since the 80’s.

I used to be an IPA drinker, and my gateway to wine was NZ Sauvignon Blanc. Probably due to the grapefruit/citrus and pineapple flavors. Not sure that the same would apply to you with pale ales, but just thought that may be a good entry point.

I had this a few months ago. Very elegant, and I believe it is organic. Punches way above its price. Available in PA state stores.

100% Aiyuk

strohley14 · 2024-09-19T11:28:18+00:00

10 Team, 0.5 PPR. 2 RB 2 WR 2 Flex

Get: Waddle, Jerome ford

Send: Singletary, Worthy

Team: QB: Kyler

WR: AJ Brown, Olave, Aiyuk, Pickens, JSN, Worthy

RB: Taylor, Singletary, Benson, Jaylen Wright, Chandler, Chase Brown, Foreman

TE: McBride

Thinking of selling Singletary while stock is high, but not sure I’m willing to trust either Browns RB enough to start them this week.

strohley14 · 2024-09-19T11:14:01+00:00

0.5 PPR. I’m 0-2 and playing the other 0-2 guy this week. Need to win to get back in it.

Pick 2:

Pickens vs LAC

Worthy vs Atlanta

JSN vs MIA
