Pier House - great location & rooms. Not cheap but it is fantastic.
I vaguely remember a poster here who seemed to know a lot about the Keys. May have even lived there part time. Bartended? Captained a boat? Gay porn producer? Maybe someone else can remember more.
Yeah- was pretty cool. Eddie was very chatty and emotional. Think Jarrett Payton may have been the only black person at Wrigley lol
I asked my UC fan husband if he would kick Brian Kelly in the dick if he could and he said hell yes before I could finish asking the question. I always liked Miles and O LSU but with Kelly, nope.
Having said that, USC’s qb has one of the most punchable face/name combos I’ve seen in FB in a minute. He looks like a 80s hotshot Wall Street broker with a penchant for roofieing girls to make them listen to nonstop bragging about his portfolio.

Possibly heading down to Key West with a big group of friends in January. Hotels/B&Bs are very pricey. Just about everything there is at least $4-500/night, except for one place that is literally *half* the cost.
The all adult gay male resort.
Enjoy, Hank.

wcc got me all in the feels today. As a “Chicago guy” already and longtime Pearl Jam fan also…shewee.
Related note, one of my and lass’ regrets is also not going there to live a few years in our mid-late 20’s and pre-kids. We were such regulars at Murphy’s Bleachers, they knew us by face and name when we walked in, and Bridget (previous longtime bartender there) told us she could get lass a $1k job per night and an apt. for us right there a block or two away in Wrigleyville.
Dammit.

Terry Kath was a fantastic guitar player.
When I read the first sentence I thought it was going in a completely different direction. That said there was one at Paoli. Not sure which was worse the first time I went skiing, getting pulled up the slope with a rope or wiping out while trying to get off the lift.
- I don’t see how anyone can hate a team that’s deemed the lovable losers.
- On Mello drunken nights I’ll run through a good 10 songs of Pearl Jam. Easy to enjoy and happy for wcc that he could go to what would be a bucket list for many.
- Potential is there with this cats football team. Not disciplined which has been an issue, but it’s tough to get anything from a “cupcake” much less after a 3 hour weather delay.
- I want to hate Ole Miss and Kiffin, but really I’d like someone to just hire him away and they can drift back down to mediocrity where they belong. He should be in ACC already.
- Phillies might put a kink in my NYY/LAD World Series prediction, but I still like the dodgers.
- Went fishing this morning. Been too long and I’m looking forward to my kids genuinely being excited to fish too. I was too cool and in college when my dad got into fishing so I missed the opportunity, but spending that time with these kids is something I’m looking forward to.

-I've said it before... it's not the team, it is the basic (*****) cable fan base. Present company excluded, of course.
-love the City itself... assuming gunplay od out of the equation.

They’re no Franky Valli and the 4 seasons that’s for sure.
Was shot at 3x. Managed to shake it off and enjoy my day.
I'm pretty sure Jimi said Kath was the best he'd ever seen/heard.
And you are correct, Chad. Chicago is fantastic and FV&4Seasons kick the living **** out of Pearl Jam.

Look, hate on the Cubs all you want. I GET it.
But to hate on the actual city of Chicago? In the words of former poster “boat doctor bob:”
I mean…

Stanley Burrell himself won't even go to Chicago right now, and that's a guy that threatened to come to Newark and beat Redman into a coma, for talking about his Mom.
Fair enough.
“Chicago. At least we’re not NYC or Philly!”
Would make a nice bumper, actually.
Lol, that’s a lot of boots. Do all their centers have to wear a boot on their right foot or something?
-#14 on the front row looks like a Wish.com version of Antonio Reeves
-Calipari is going to lose his mind because of these new injury reports the SEC is starting

Yep....$1B budget deficit, crime and murders still an ongoing problem despite Beetlejuice leaving, CPD is 2000 officers short, massive illegal immigrant problem which is causing homelessness to increase, cost of living way above national average....to name a few. Sure, great bars and such, so fine for the intellectually challenged......but throw in the liberal ignorant and there you go.
“I live 7 hours away but I’m an expert on Chicago because I hear about it on Fox News.”
Scangarello staying around and brining in DJ U would have gotten Stoops fired.
-big cities have big city problems. Nothing under the sun is new.
- @VernHatton52 ... start thinking on where you want my $50 to go. Dirty old Reds.
-with the exception of the timeout on the 2nd play, that game felt like the "cleanest" stoops opener.
-the thing that irritated me about the delay: if it's safe enough for staff/cheerleaders to be on the field and for 50k in the stands... why can't the game be played?. Odd.
-defense is stout. ST looks very solid and the offense seems like it knows what it's doing. Optimistic.

Controversial Key West Take: The boomers have priced younger people out of that place and it’s basically a retirement village now. I was trying to set up a trip in November for one of my project teams. Before Covid we did this and would stay at Ocean Key which is ground zero Duval St for like $500 a night per room (hey, it was a business expense). Now, that hotel is like $1K per night. The crappy hotels by the airport now start at like $650 in peak season. No way you're getting people in the 20-40 year old range with that.
Just returned from Key West yesterday...quick little 3-nighter for Labor Day we booked on a whim 2 weeks ago. Made a list of about 30 places based on recs from several friends who are regulars + the worst poster in catpaw history, along with the obvious ones.... and we hit damn near every one of them. Good times
Place felt like a distant island relative of New Orleans in a weird way, w/ regards to having incredible food, endless bars/music, lots of history, it's own unique/weird culture, etc. We had a blast.
