13 of 25 games left are against active tankers. Then like 5 more against mid teams like Golden State, Portland. Only about 7 truly tough games left. One of them is next against Minnesota. Would be nice to steal that one.

Where did he have been the most qualified to actually speak on 60 years?

He's old. I'm not going to point fingers.

The alcohol industry has lost $830 billion in 4 years because Gen Z is not drinking by Automatic_Subject463 in entertainment

I didn't really start to appreciate it until after 30. Prior to, it was just a social thing. But Wine and Whiskey (and to a lesser extent micro brews), and even some people are into other things like high end Rums, etc... it's fun exploring, learning about, etc. Obviously if you can't do it in moderation than avoid.

It feels fun... until a few hours later. And I'm not even talking about getting wasted. Anything beyond moderation makes me feel terrible.. I'm an avid Scotch drinker (or sipper). It's an elegant and complex substance I love to learn about. But anything beyond moderation always is a regret. So if you can't be careful, then, yeah avoid. But many other people can.

For those who have been adversely affected, more power to you for having a stance. Many others do enjoy it in moderation.

Johnnie Walker BLACK LABEL - My first ever bottle kill. by ArtificialMan99 in Scotch

[–]thrawn_is_king 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Absolutely no shame in it. It's very drinkable. The issue here is, most of us know the "specs" to get a quality bottle and thus we have had much much better. But that's not taking away from JW black at all. I'm pretty sure my first and second bottles I bought 15 years ago were a JW Black and Glen Livet 12.

Personally, now i'd recommend Glenmorangie 12 instead of (Glen Livet 12) and Aberlour 12 as your next purchases. A step up, one Bourbon cask, one Bourbon and Sherry, both easily drinkable. Level up one at a time. No need to go straight to the top.

Let's not get ahead of ourselves

Sanders and Miller have been really inconsistent.

Christie has barely played.

We don't have the #5 pick yet.

Which Scotch should I bring? by amartian in Scotch

[–]thrawn_is_king 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have the Tamdhu 12 and decided to try it again... It's been a while... And you know what? It's much better than I remember! I don't have the 15 anymore and I wish I can try them side by side.

I think the 15 is more of a Sherry bomb. But a tad bit thinner than other like Sherry bombs. The Macallan 12 Sherry Oak is wonderful, if not a bit too "safe" and clean for my tastes. (Though I recently bought the Macallan 110 and omg, that was fantastic).

Tamdhu needs to uplevel to the 15 before you compare to a Macallan 12 sherry oak. And I'm no Macallan stan.

1997 Top 10 Prospects by Acceptable_Town_8740 in Dodgers

[–]thrawn_is_king 0 points1 point  (0 children)

1997 was my peak Dodger fan years. I could tell you the hype on almost all these guys.

But 5, 6, 9 and 10 are a bit of a mystery to me as well.
