FIFA doesn’t give a fuck as long as they get paid. If they gave a fuck, they would have already done something about it.

I'm thinking I may buy an affordable on sale baitcasting reel and a two-piece rod to keep in the car/truck. I never used 2-piece casting rods but it's just more practical, and I don't want to risk my more vintage stuff getting busted or stolen. Any recommendations on a decent two-piece casting rod for portable pond jumping and spontaneous fishing when I'm out and about?
After a quick look at Dick’s/Academy/Bass Pro, other than a bunch of combos at BassPro (which are essentially a Bass Pro brand 2-piece rod with a decent Abu/Diawa/Lew’s/Shimano reel) this was the only combo that I saw with a 2-piece rod:
…and it’s currently on sale. I haven’t ever fished a Kast King, but my brother’s FIL has one and he seems to like his.
If you want to put together a combo on your own, an Ugly Stick is really the only 2-piece rod that I saw other than the Bass Pro rod mentioned above.
As for a reels to pair with it, Abu used to make a decent low-end reel (Black Max) but doesn’t look like they make it any longer. It looks like the replacement is the Abu Max X. It appears to have decent reviews. Lew’s makes a few sub-$100 reels (Speed Spool series) that I have heard good things about.

John wants to know as well... WHO??ESPN's fingerprints are all over TX & OU going to the SEC and the destruction of the current system of college football, but it appears that they aren't quite as good at playing god when it comes to European Football/ Fútbol / Calcio/ Fußball.
There is also that Reyna kid at Dortmund that I hear is pretty good.

So, are they not allowed to use burnt orange or are they not allowed to use whatever shade of orange the current jerseys are?

Ross is a caricature now, but once upon a time at the Courtney love roast, he asked Courtney how it’s possible she looks worse than Kurt.
The best Jeff Ross line is still: I wouldn’t fuck Bea Arthur with Bea Arthur’s dick.
Funny story about that. I can’t remember when that roast took place but it was early/mid-2000s. At that time, Kornheiser had a local DC radio show. It was part of the ESPN network, so he had a bunch of ESPN talking heads on the show. This was about the time when shows started streaming, his was one of the first to stream. Since the advertisers were only paying for radio time, they would leave the mics open on the stream during the commercial breaks and every once and a while there would be some good not-for-broadcast conversations that would go on. Anyhow, the week after the roast where Ross used the Bea Arthur line, Rich Eisen was on the show. He and Kornheiser were going over what they were going to talk about during the break before he went on. So after they are done with that, Kornheiser asks what he’s been up to and Eisen tells him he was at this roast and tells the Ross story. Everyone in the studio is losing it and Kornheiser asks his producer “Dennis, are we still streaming?” Dennis replies with, “Umm. Yeah.” Eisen was not amused that his story went out over the internets.

Herman (takes a long snort of an 8 inch line of coke on his desk then claps his hands together loudly): Okay boys, here's what I'm gonna do! We're going to hire a guy with no experience and no justification for being here, but Chris likes him! He's going to get along great with the kids these days though!
Staff (all wearing thousand yard stares): Uh, okaaay. Why not just hire a guy that's qualified and reduce the risk of failure?
Herman (face is beet red): SHUT THE FUCK UP!!
Staff (still in a state of shock that they're at this place, in this moment, with this guy leading them): Hypothetical here. Just hypothesizing, coach. What can we do to support this guy in case he's an utter and complete failure at a job for which he has no qualifications for having in the first place?
Herman (grinding his teeth and scrolling through his iphone): Yeah, yeah, whatever. We'll get him a thingamajig. Like a mentor or something. Some washed-out has-been looking for a gig. I know a bunch of them from Mack's old staffs. Daryl Drake or Dick Tomey or somebody.
Staff (skulking off out the door collectively): Sounds like a plan coach ...
Herman (looking for his energy drink, adderall, or more coke): Where is Horny?! Horny, get in here!!

Yep, makes all the sense in the world to go this route.
The best part of this is his short list for mentors is two dead dudes.

Alberto knot is easier than uni-uni. Seven turns up and seven turns down. Not sure what's so difficult to remember about that. Uni-uni you are essentially tying two knots. Alberto is only one.
FG is a great knot, but it is a pain in the ass to tie with lighter flouro. Alberto is much easier to tie and only slightly thicker.
