If I react poorly to the coach of the women’s dek hockey team at Temple trolling me out of the blue (see the last few hours), then I apologize in advance. @shmenguin, and here you go. If you think this kind of stuff should be fair game, then by all means, let me know. This is not political discussi...

I'm joking around. Let's all take it easy. I need to go pull up a ridiculous LGBTQ story on Drudge to get things back on track here? Someone deleted this a few minutes ago. Why?.... Agreed.

I did. it's ok. had a greasier, gamey flavor. You have to really season it for it to taste good.
At least you manned up, unlike most bear killers.

2017-18 College Hoops Thread

@MikeLupica
The NCAA basketball tournament began to become what it is now in 1979, with Bird and Magic. Since then, Loyola is as good a Final Four story as we have had. Including Butler. Twice.
I watched the 79 playoff; the first I recall.

Best ever.

County government can handle roads, schools, zoning etc.

My experience is that:

City government < county government < state government < federal government

I’m willing to limit it to county and federal.
