  1. The pyramid is unquestionably inverting and doing so more rapidly than I expected 5-10 years ago.  I have said it before but free academies at MLS and USL is about the best we can hope for.  The economics of elite club soccer just don't support pyramid inversion below the professional level so depth will always be a challenge.

    Got the first Pfizer today at a drive-through site. Was very efficient, like being inside a Swiss clock. My only moment of apprehension was when I was in the approach lanes of traffic, and "Major Tom" came on the radio.

    Better than Only the Good Die Young which came on as I was turning into the parking lot of my shot location.

    Really? If you say so. I guess.

    That which is asserted without evidence can be dismissed without evidence.

    Have you taught me anything? No. No you have not. 

    You have taught all of us that post on this thread and now the jazz thread that you are either an unredeemable cunt or afflicted with Asperbger's.  Either way, seek professional treatment.

    Is there seriously a debate on the least jammy show going on right now?  They play different kinds of sets all the time, that's kinda the fucking point.  

    5/26/77 is a solid Spring 77 show, particularly set 2.  I agree with fucknut that the the first set is noticeably "unjammy" after the strong Music, Sugaree start until the hot Bertha closer, but the second set is typically excellent May 77 dead.

    It's very interesting to see the fan fic bois ascribed a certain level of evil to an entire organization that while known for continently making stupid decisions have never been involved in anything sinister compared to writing off the possibility that Watson is entirely at fault for being a sexual predator.

    Given what we have seen in America the past few years, the most likely scenario is that Watson likes butt stuff with strangers and thought because of his wealth, power, and privilege all these encounters were 100% consensual. 

    The leap from making/approving bad football decisions and hires to coordinating sexual assault allegations against the most valuable asset of your business is dramatic.

    We talk about this on the pod with literally initial reactions without knowing any details at all except for some type of allegation. 

    All of us immediately thought fuckery was afoot. Now that there are 9, I am leaning towards this is definitely true, but the Texans are also behind it - people that think billionaires won't destroy people just because they can are really really naive. Especially when it has to do with disrespect. This is a clean way to ruin someone without legal ramification or moral ramification. 

    If it ever came to light that the Texans facilitated these claims in any way (regardless of their veracity), they would immediately become the ultimate pariah in professional sports and current ownership would be forced to sell the team at a discount.

    But they also have the improvisational side which they pioneered, fusing jazz with rock years before Miles Davis fused rock with jazz, and some of their songs are launching points into that other realm.

    In a Silent Way was recorded in February 1969 which is more or less contemporaneous with the recording of Live/Dead.

    We just had a President who very obviously suffered from dementia and nobody in the media gave a shit.

    Pence would have tanked their ratings.

    The 74 show at the Jai-Alai Fronton has some great jams.  I thought  the versions of To Lay Me Down and Ship of Fools are as good or better than any I’ve ever heard.

    Couldn't agree more.

  10. C lister who found a way to move to the A list and then realized the path she chose involved a bunch of shit she had no interest in.  She coordinated a way out and is now exactly where she wants to be.  Living the A list life in SoCal without any of the dreary day-to-day responsibilities of the royal family.  All she has to worry about now is Harry throwing himself off a cliff.

    Your loss. That disqualifies you from being able to comment intelligently on an acid rock band. THE acid rock band. (Probably goes for Pink Floyd too, right? They were Britain’s version of the Dead.)

    You are seriously ruining the thread.  You should consider taking some acid to clean out the pipes and come back with a better attitude.  Your dismissive and condescending tone is extremely bizarre for a freaking dead thread.

    Excuse me, sir, I chose City way way way before the money. @alincoln and other old timers will confirm. 

    Confirmed.  Huck supported City back in the Kevin Keegan days.
