I’d go for the black IPA on Sunday.

I can’t make the 9AM match but I can still influence the fun.

@mocospurs.com @iain.coys.social I’m heading to the pub on a non-match day to try my favorite style beer, a black IPA.

Saints Row always wins.

In terms of US politics, Bush v. Gore is the defining event of the century. It set the template: a ruthless right that instinctively seeks power & doesn't give a shit about rule of law...and a bunch of hapless, feckless octogenarian Dems worried about the good opinion of centrist opinion columnists.

I can’t tell you where I was during the final.

Top secret location.

At the start of this term, my wife thought I was being ridiculous because I had a completely no MAGA policy.

She now thinks I’m a genius for it.

You don’t have to tolerate shit.

I use a loose definition of Christmas movie: if there’s a Christmas tree, a Santa hat, or some candy canes…fuck it, it’s Christmas.

I'm a sucker for all the cheesy movies, especially ones where Bruce Willis blows up stuff.

Once they are broken in, as comfortable as any sneakers.

Before…not so much.

I like this as well.

Makes you have to pay attention to the polling afterward as well.

Just changes the engagement and interest since you won’t know who is leading or losing.

How to Leave the U.S.A. In the wake of President Trump’s reëlection, the number of aggrieved Americans seeking a new life abroad appears to be rising. The Netherlands offers one way out.

Never thought about the Netherlands, but I don't know...it might be a fun place to live.

Well, that’s a different story.

I don’t think Frank is better than Ange. And, I wouldn’t have made that change.

I’ll admit that I was decidedly Frank Out as much as two weeks ago.

I don’t know if he is the solution. But hearing him discuss how you can’t know how hard doing a job like this is until you are in it and changing his approach, gives me a bit more patience.

He may still be a bad fit.

I’m not big on chopping and changing managers.

We don’t know that Xabi is better than Frank.

Only different.

Since Frank does seem to be learning and adjusting, I’m happy to stand behind him and hope he continues to grow into the role of Tottenham manager.

To me it’s not like he’s in on the joke and is taking the money.

He doesn’t realize he is the joke.

I wasn’t expecting it either.

But I got the goosebumps all over again.

She's also right that he doesn't realize that he's a useful idiot to these folks.

He thinks he is part of the club.
