Getting ready for the EURO Final. I see where @CPFC1905 is executing the plan. Trust @Eoin is primed as well.
Hoping for ET in this one. Time will tell.Louisville; Rolling smoke in the neighbourhood. Life is too short for light/lite beer! Seems I'm livin in a transitional period. CHEETO (aka Agent Orange) makes Nixon look like a saint. -
The lady works at the university here. She goes back to the office for the first time in a year and half tomorrow. Needless to say, I had a pretty big move today to get her place set back up.JohnInCarolina said:
I ended up going in. I brought everything into the office and set up shop again, and managed to get some work done. It all feels a little strange after not being in for more than a year.Legume said:

Thanks. I am in Canada. Definitely planning to go back to the UK at some point. I also have a cousin in Manchester and one of her daughters studying in London.CPFC1905 said:

Beautiful food, family and setting. Where in the UK are you located?Had a great, extended trip to Bourton-on-the-Water and London a few years back (mix of business and pleasure). Hope to get back your way soon.
We're in the Chilterns, which is an hour from Bourton, so the other side of Oxford & nearer to London. We hope to end up somewhere near Bourton, or maybe even further West.
Look out for Clarkson's Farm on Amazon, that will remind you even more of that area.
There's a handful of us Brits on here, so if you do plan another trip - you'll be amongst friends.Bourton was just beautiful. Great photos and memories of our time there. Drove throughout the trip, including in London. -
When you come to a sporting event here in the states you'll be a natural at "tailgating".CPFC1905 said:Got the eating out the way and started the drinking. One hour to go...
First go at home made smash burgers. Good crust from the plancha but meat was a little light on seasoning. Smoked streaky under the steak weight for the win.
Thanks to @Stormbringer for the pork chorizo recipe. Mine were no way as elegant - but a good option over the standard beef.

I'm sitting here wondering why I'm the only person who realizes that if England will sub on Jadon Sancho for Mason Mount, they will win.

I'm not saying that he is overall better - but that Sancho with fresh legs had a better shot at unlocking the Italian defense than Mount after 60+ minutes of running.XXL BGE, Karebecue, Klose BYC, Chargiller Akorn Kamado, Weber Smokey Mountain, Grand Turbo gasser, Weber Smoky Joe, and the wheelbarrow that my grandfather used to cook steaks from his cattle

I'm not saying that h8e is overall better - but that Sancho with fresh legs had a better shot at unlocking the Italian defense than Mount after 60+ minutes of running.
Yes, bringing on fresh legs earlier was what I expected and what should have happened. Too defensive a mindset. -
I can't bring myself to read the expert analysis yet. I don't think either side were demonstrably better or worse than the other.Eoin said:

Certainly we faded as the game went on and the impact substitutions just couldn't get in the game.
Noble or heroic failure just isn't the same as a grubby win though, is it?
This England team is so different to any I have watched before, I hope we go deep in the in World Cup and lay deep foundations for more regular last 4 finishes.
Other girls may try to take me away
But you know, it's by your side I will stay -

Absolutely. I can't believe Mount lasted into extra time - I thought he was really poor yesterday. I think he waited way too long for PK subs too, taking his kick was what, the 2nd time Rashford touched the ball yesterday?Eoin said:

England definitely has a lot of potential for Qatar, especially if Southgate can loosen the reins a bit. It will help the youth get another year of top flight competition, and hopefully getting through qualifying will help Southgate develop the confidence to let them push forward.
As an Arsenal fan, I definitely was happy to see how well Saka played at this level. Also think that Chiellini should have been given straight red.LBGE

A friend of mine texted me about that when it happened. When I first saw it, I thought the same. I have low tolerance for what I consider to be "behavioral" issues (as opposed to playing aggressively and maybe arriving late to a challenge). But given that it wasn't an obvious goal-scoring opportunity and that it didn't endanger life or limb (like a studs up lunge into a shin) I can see how a ref would only give a yellow.Acn said:

Damn fine looking food. If you can get it, Gloucester Old Spot pork is a good one to use to pair with chorizo for that burger. If you want to try something completely left field these are lovely:CPFC1905 said:Got the eating out the way and started the drinking. One hour to go...
