  1. You can easily stay the better part of an entire day in Arlington. One of my favorites.
  2. I'm not trying to stir the pot, but I'm curious what specific changes you would advocate. I assume you are referring to personnel, but not sure whom you mean.
  3. There is currently another thread for the Open Cup. http://bluegrasspreps.com/other-professional-sports/2017-us-open-347184.html btw ... I'll be there! FCC!!!
  4. The point is, if you are happy and content in life, you already have everything you need. That is what's significant.
  5. I generally believe Mack really enjoys his job, Xavier University, his life in Gr. Cincinnati, and is one of those guys who subscribes to the theory of "what can you buy for $3.5 million that you can't buy for $2 million?" Contentment, and being comfortable with who you are, doesn't contain a price tag. I admire that.
  6. I just finished reading the attached book. Very easy read, and you don't have to read the entire book to get the gist: the amount of added sugar in foods (often with misleading names such as fructose, sucrose, dextrose, maltose, barley malt, corn syrup, rice syrup, etc) that the public believes is "healthy" is quite staggering. As with everything, the truth lies somewhere in the middle (between deceptive marketing techniques and personal responsibility). But it's very easy for the uneducated to inadvertently "harm" themselves, every time they ingest something.

  7. Sparse, but ELECTRIC, crowd tonight at Nippert. Djiby gets a rebound off of a corner kick in the 48', and FCC holds off a good LouCity squad. Okoli (last year), Djiby and Mitch get all of the attention, but Harrison Delbridge is an absolute stud on the back line. STUD! Bring on the Crew!!
  8. FC Cincinnati hosts LouCity tonight at Nippert. Anyone going? LouCity has to be the favorite, but this will be the first game that Fall and Konig play together. Both up top? Does Dacres lose his spot? Who ya got?! Winner gets Columbus Crew.
  9. Academic reasons? I thought HHS was supposed to be a good school. Maybe the Emperor isn't wearing any clothes after all.
  10. Your first response was terse, so in reply, I reciprocated. Since you've thoughtfully elaborated, I will as well. When I said "uncomfortable", I wasn't meaning a physical discomfort (tho sitting in a hard pew or kneeling on an uncomfortable kneeler may be a mental notation of the physical sacrifices Jesus made). What I meant was the Church has asked us to do things that most feel uncomfortable (or uneasy) doing .... working with the poor, feeding the hungry, visiting the imprisoned, tithing, fasting. Some people (not all) think that going to a mega church, drinking coffee and listening to rock music for an hour is sufficient. I'm not a preacher or theologian, or pretend to be. But as a follower of Christ, I'm asked to evangelize on his behalf. And sometimes that is uncomfortable. That's all.
  11. That's funny! I tried that U-Scan feature once a few years ago, and thought it was a decent idea. Then I looked over at the checkout line, and saw all the teenagers (including some with disabilities) I was putting out of work, and never used it again.
  12. The book cat references to is a must-read. Unequivocally, the most thorough account I've read. Enough to convince me what the true cause of the fire was. The part about Keith Holliday took my breath away. And Chesley is revealed to be the scum of the earth.
  13. ^This A man had steel stakes driven through his hands and feet, a crown of thorns jammed on his head, a lance piercing his side, and died a cruel death as a result. Church, and your active participation, is not supposed to be easy. Or comfortable. Grow up kids.
  14. Prediction about Troyzan comes true. With the exception of finding/playing one idol, he basically stayed under the radar, DID NOTHING, and rode Brad to the end. Then got ZERO votes. I guess he got a free 39-day "vacation" in Fiji. In order to win the game, you have to actually play the game.
  15. Stirrups. Never understood them, but they were cool.
  16. Funny! I wonder how many people on here even know who Ronnie WooWoo is. Interestingly, that may be the origin of the wooo.
  17. A deathknell for the Lady Cru. Kim was ranked 1st, 1st and 2nd in three different events .... a potential 29 points. Best of luck for a speedy recovery, and a healthy/successful college career.
  18. Then wouldn't you want to flush it?? Seems Sarah had a better chance in the end against Michaela than just about anyone else.
  19. I guess I should have said "a crowd in Cincinnati bigger than what FC Cincinnati drew for Crystal Palace". Not intended to be a knock on Louisville.
  20. I'm still confused why Officer Sarah stole Tai's vote, then used two votes on Michaela. She had to know Tai would vote with Brad and Troyzan (for Michaela). She could have knocked Tai out, or if Tai used an idol (which I don't believe she knows about), Michaela still would have gone.
  21. Not sure what the turnout would be in Louisville for this (potential) match, but I predict a bigger crowd in Cincinnati than what they drew for Crystal Palace. It could be epic.
  22. Ready to Rock | The Players' Tribune If you read the young man's letter, it appears he made a sound, thoughtful decision that was best for him. I have no problem with it. And I'm an ardent UK fan. I wish him luck.
  23. $500 million sounds like a lot. Half a billion dollars sounds like a LOT more. When you put it in those terms, it is beyond ridiculous.
