Same. I don't like to eat meats still attached to their bone.

I’m even more confused now — are you saying that a coach can only be considered as part of a coaching tree by virtue of where his first coaching job was? You should know exactly what I'm saying with your wealth of knowledge. Thanks for the comments as always. unfortunately, my genius doesn't extend...

I loved Chinatown, but I always felt way out of place, finally found a restaurant near the DMV where I at least had an inkling of what I was ordering.

I still think Vrabel is a good coach; good coaches get fired. He's had some bad QBs which will make any coach look bad, as I'm unfortunately learning now. He's also had a transcendental RB, I'm not as set on him being that great of a coach. Belechick needs some GM checking but otherwise is still be...

odd argument aside, trying to claim that a guy who got his first major head coaching job directly after spending five seasons in New England and working his way up the offensive staff *isn't* part of the New England/Belichick coaching tree is quite the reach He was OC at a major program, he would h...

Vrabel Another win for the Belichick tree! He never coached under Bill, only played. He's part of the Bill 0'Brian (NFL) or Urban Meyer (OSU) trees. Isn't that like saying your grandfather isn't a part of your family tree because he wasn't your father? So by your logic, Ryans is off the Kubiack tre...

Take the T. There's a weird thing with uber and it's a pain to find your driver and phones don't work, etc. If you're staying around Copley it's easy enough to take the silver/blue line from Logan and then the green line to Copely. I'd check out the MFA/Gardner Museums (further down the green line) ...

That's sad, those were my jam al through HS and into college.

Supposedly Winston and the team went rouge. It was supposed to be a kneel-down.

I use Google Maps any time I’m driving more than 15 minutes. Traffic can be unpredictable here. My daughter used to make fun of me, accusing me of not knowing how to get to her field despite driving it 3 days a week. Until the day it took me a different route and a couple of her teammates got stuck...

Almost went with "darts" but the original was about announcers and I have a soft spot for Mitchell & Webb.

Two cars are exact copies of ours that seem to shop at the same time as we do. Moving on to the third hand counting the times I've gone toward the wrong 4 Runner even if I do know where I parked..

I thought that the PA announcer's voice gave out a couple of years ago. He sounds like he's spitting out blood with each call.

Maple old fashioned. Rye, maple syrup, and muddled orange slice and luxardo cherries.

I want to add to take some time if they do call. A good friend called me and I was busy doing this or that so I paid half attention and then cut the call short and he died a week later (he had been a really heavy drinker and had liver and other problems.)
