  1. Good news everyone, summer officially begins tomorrow.
  2. $20 Electric Jellyfish or nothing.

    Are we? I don't think it's a given that either team is better than the other, but they have some really good talent that isn't in Suarez' generation in Darwin Nunez, Cesar Araujo, Rodrigo Bentancur, Federico Valverde, Facundo Pellistri, Matias Vina, and plenty of other players that are playing in the top 5 Europe/Brazil/etc.

    Oh yeah 3rd or 4th in Copa America isn't out of the question, but that would place us as the same as your Uruguay, Chile, Colombia, and Peru types which is where I think we are right now talent wise. I don't think expecting a semifinal appearance in 2026 is all that realistic but of course homefield matters as does the craziness that happens in every WC. I think the US will have something like the 8th or 9th best squad if the trajectory continues into 2026.
  5. Yeah, MLS Season Pass it is for this one. Frankly, it might be that way for a few weeks as the season goes down the shitter.

    I'm not sure I would go that far. Yes, we have some very nice players with skill that we've never had before which currently makes us the class of our region. However, outside of the MF we really don't have all that much depth and some of our stars are struggling to see playing time in Europe or are making moves to smaller leagues/teams to get more time. I absolutely love the talent/tenacity we have and the future is incredibly bright, but I don't see how we matchup with the truly stacked teams especially on defense. I think we'll be as talented and as good as we've ever been in 2026, but I also think we're setting ourselves up for disappointment if we expect to be one of the top 3 or 4 teams in the tournament without some major luck. I think Copa 2024 will give us a much needed reality check when a mid-level CONMEBOL team like Chile, Uruguay, or Colombia takes it to us.

    We have any streams floating around? I don't care in what language.
  8. I once missed a showing of Impressions de France when a lady in a scooter in the small waiting room hit the gas instead of the brakes and hit the wall at full speed. They canceled the next showing to get the paramedics in to make sure she was still able to still purchase food for next 3 hours.
  9. Those are two great reasons to go to WDW. People watching is fantastic.
  10. I had a good time at Botika tonight...
  11. We were meeting some friends at the George's in Hewitt and got into a big argument about dropping the wife off at the front as lightning that was in front of the storm was popping like crazy. Apparently my tone is horrible for suggesting she can't run in sandals and that me wanting her to avoid getting struck by lightning is ridiculous if it isn't raining yet. Of course she was proven right when she didn't die, but there's always hope for next time.
  12. It's fake. Googling Trump Truth Social takes about 2 seconds and you don't even have to give the site clicks to see what he's said.
  13. I really need to take the week off for the Starfield release. It'll probably be the only Bethesda RPG we get until 2030 so might as well soak it all in.
  14. Nah, this looks way better than Jedi Survivor which is really just a good looking Pitfall clone that crashes all the time.
  15. Ouch that's easily >$10,000 out of your bank account for less than a week of being miserable apparently. I like the place, but it ain't worth 5 figures.
  16. Meh, this week will be hot but oh well it's summer and it's hot. The meltdown happens sometime in mid to late August when it's been this way for over 2 months, and you start losing your mind a bit waiting on the first 89 degree high of late September.
  17. Lol are those people praying over Trump? Always hilarious to see.
  18. Simple ass cheese fries are great. Also prefer bacon and jalapeños over chili. Chili is great but it overpowers the taste of everything.
  19. 33:00-40:00 is my favorite breakdown. Obviously there are so many variables on the numbers.
  20. 18 hours worth of driving for that
  21. We took the elevator to the observation deck at the WW1 museum with Stuver's parents. They are super nice and really talked up how much Brad loves Austin.
  22. Trump admit fault in a high profile case ro the nation that makes him appear weak? He won't admit shit ever and he'll win the nomination.
  23. Once after this is going to be the cherry on top.
