  1. Man I wish I could fish like Mac. I'm thinking of going in on kayak fishing in and around north Padre.
  2. I would assume part of the priced will be due to the high probability they will be in the championship next year
  3. The owner of the Las Vegas Golden Nights NHL team negotiating to buy Bournemouth. If it goes through; 50% of PL clubs will have American investors.
  4. Disagree. It looks very mustang next to a mustang
  5. First off. Lol at Austin with competent anything involving governance and leadership. That city is run like a one armed rower. But I will expand on the stupidity that people throw out that only people educated by your state universities can and do work in your state. Plenty of Texas educated people working all over the US and world. Plenty of Calif educated people working all over.
  6. My daughters team travels all over Texas and surrounding state for her league games. Don't get me started how insane this is. The club usually secures a hotel with a group block. For our Dallas trip they chose a Hilton in Lewisville which is perfect since I am a diamond member and will be able to pad my points and stays also will get upgraded. Bonus is that my ex and I split the hotel costs so my ex is helping me pad my hotel stats.
  7. Rather the kick in the balls come from a group stage. Agreed with Deep they needed a reality check.
  8. Unless you are going into a very specific career (ie Wall Street) I don't really think it matters a whole hell of a lot where you go to school these days. Education has turned into a P/L business and kids are playing into their hands.
  9. I see Conte is going with "fake it until you make it" with Son
  10. Kate with the long hair down...come to daddy
  11. Thank goodness for UCL with ENG shut down. COYS!
  12. Our hotels are about 8-10 walk from the Bun Cha place you recommended. Will plan to go there.
  13. We are staying there as well. And same as you we are split in Ha Noi due to a night out in Ha Long Bay First and second Ha Noi Hotels http://www.orientalsuiteshotel.com/ https://lasiestahotels.vn/hangbe/ Vientiane https://www.laseinehotels.com/ Siem Reap https://www.tripadvisor.com/Hotel_Review-g297390-d8055333-Reviews-La_Riviere_d_Angkor_Resort-Siem_Reap_Siem_Reap_Province.html Bangkok https://www.tripadvisor.com/Hotel_Review-g293916-d580606-Reviews-DoubleTree_by_Hilton_Bangkok_Ploenchit-Bangkok.html
  14. Agreed. I have every intention to return to Cafe Giang. Both of our hotels in Ha Noi are around the lake. Ill take a look at the food tour. Last time I did one in Bangkok I ended up eating cow brains for the first time which was fantastic of course
  15. https://twitter.com/CFC_Janty/status/1568287574384320514
  16. My daughters club clearly knows I'm a Spurs fan. I was not present at their media day so I was surprised to see this
  17. You'd think so but the sports world is littered with billionaires who buy teams that seem to have absolutely no plan in place at all and drive franchises and clubs into bankruptcy.
  18. They paid $2 mil for the club itself.
  19. Austins MLS stadium was $250mil. That new KOP they are doing is what $50 mil? That and further stadium upgrades to the racetrack are going to add up. I'm sure tiktok is good for several hundred mil Reynolds net worth is 150mil.
  20. Where is the haggis? Scotland breakfast and all. BTW. If you do take RBS notes to England they will look at it like its a ransom note but they are legal and accepted.
  21. I'd rather just play the damn schedule but at least Ill only need one screen tomorrow in the 11am slot
  22. I haven't dug much into the finances and all but I assume Deadpool and Rob are backed by some type of VC or silent investor. I also wonder if this is a flip. I'd like to think they are in it for the long haul because even though they are actors they seem to be really interested. I will say though I find it odd they haven't attended any matches as far as I can tell. Seems like a lot of this is being done by proxy. Not that half the owners in the PL hardly attend matches. Although I understand they both work but still if I can make it to ENG once a year for a match they can too. Perhaps in a few years they sell off the bulk of the club but maintain a small ownership. 1. Buy forgotten financial disaster club with history 2. Get massive exposure. Ramp revs up with merch sales etc. Spend on players. 3 Move up 2-3 leagues 4. ??? 5. Sell and profit. As much as I think in part big $$ is probably ruining club football, for a city and club like Wrexham it's a godsend. If this is successful and profitable I expect this could be a blueprint for more people to buy and refurbish a club. The thing they have though is that they are very funny and likeable dudes.
  23. And possibly next week as well. Next open date to make up matches is January Also
