Who should we blame for Bro Country?
I think this pile of shit is the laziest songwriting I've ever seen. Like, if you want to cover a song, just cover it. Even if you are crediting the original writers and they're getting their cut, why does this thing need to exist?

Hopefully it keeps Tech fans out of United Supermarket tomorrow.

Beer 2025: Merry Christmas Everyone, Including the Haters and Losers
I love pilsners. The hazy IPA recipes are pretty similar. The difference is all the varieties of hops. There are also quite a few different grain bills for other styles of IPAs. West Coast IPAs don’t really taste like hazy New England ones.

I'm not sure what you mean by "up north" but studded tires and chains are rarely used around here. Snow tires are common, but that's just a different tread profile.- Winter Weather 2025 - Arctic Blasts or Sweaty Ass?
The worst part of driving in snow is not being able to see the lanes or the edges of the road. Unless it's really wet and slushy, it doesn't toss the vehicle around much. You guys are lucky that the ditches never fill up enough to make it impossible to discern where the shoulder drops off.- 2025 Orange Bowl - Notre Dame vs. Penn State

100% where I'm at. 6-7 years ago I was trading TG for Russian River with @AnotherUTFan and going to beer releases or going out of my way to swing into beer bars, liquor stores, etc to find some kind of whale or gem. I pretty quickly and suddenly just lost interest in all of that shit. Plus I found a lot of the people who were super into that stuff to be relatively off putting. At least the ones that would descend on Decorah for big events. I get to my local breweries a couple times a month (if I'm lucky), drink the local beer when I'm traveling, but that's the extent of the effort I'm willing to go to.- Beer 2025: Merry Christmas Everyone, Including the Haters and Losers

From my vantage point, the downsizing of craft beer has almost exclusively eliminated breweries I wasn't interested in anyhow.- College Hoops 2024-25
I agree with that, but United Supermarkets is a fantastic home environment and a Saturday afternoon tip leaves some time for the crowd to do some day-drinkin'. Our true road games have been at Iowa, where 40% of the crowd was in cardinal and gold, and CU over their winter break. This will be on a whole different level.- College Hoops 2024-25
Saturday's going to be a fucking dog fight. The little bit of Tech I've seen this year suggests you guys can get on one of those rolls where nothing is missing and it doesn't matter how good the half court defense is.- New Orleans Food and Drink Thread
I figured that part of the itinerary went without saying.- New Orleans Food and Drink Thread
I'm an early riser (even when boozing) but NOLA is one of those cases where I'm ok with a line at a restaurant. We'd probably just grab to-gos from the liquor store next to our hotel and get the HOTD rolling on the commute. My days will start with getting up early (6AMish) and either running around the Garden District or hitting the eliptical/weights in the hotel workout room to sweat the hangover out. An old trick I learned growing up on a farm. Sweat profusely, coffee, shower, eye opener. Feel like a new man.- Albums with no bad songs

Is Ruby Slipper a quality breakfast spot, or is it an overdone chain? I see there's one in walking distance.- College Hoops 2024-25
This is probably the most complete ISU team of my life. Fizer/Tinsley squad might take them. Maybe. We blew a 20 point lead on Auburn in Maui. Would love to have that back.- New Orleans Food and Drink Thread
Liuzza getting a lot of love upthread too. Checked them out on Google. Looks legit. We fly in on Wednesday the 29th at 1:15 and the wife wants to do a haunted tour thing in the Quarter that night (think we're scheduled for 8). Seems like checking into the hotel and grabbing an uber up there for a late lunch before drinking in the Quarter prior to the tour would be a good plan to kick things off.- New Orleans Food and Drink Thread
Thanks! Guy's and Domilise's both came up in my Google exploring and looked legit.- New Orleans Food and Drink Thread
Poboy spots in Uptown or the Garden District? Going in a few weeks and staying around St Charles & Jackson. Plan to explore that area more than on my previous trip. I'd made a note to get to Parkway, but figured maybe there's something better more out of the way and less known on that side of town. EDIT: shit, any Uptown/Garden recs would work, really.- Beer 2025: Merry Christmas Everyone, Including the Haters and Losers
Meant to post it yesterday. Fuck the trend, imo.- Worst concert/live show that you attended
I've seen DBT 15-20 times and it was almost always fucking incredible. My worst show, I guess, was Red Hot Chili Peppers in early 2007 or so. It was a raging blizzard in Iowa, and they were obviously sick with some kind of flu. Just a complete lack of energy between the travel nightmare and their physical condition. I realize a lot of people can't stand them period, but I'd seen them several months prior and enjoyed the show immensely. This was a total let down by comparison. - Winter Weather 2025 - Arctic Blasts or Sweaty Ass?
