hi8is Posted September 22, 2021 Share Posted September 22, 2021 Here’s a random topic for anything under the sun. I’ll start: Chris Basset is set for a return tomorrow after suffering that line drive to his head against us a few weeks ago. Good story. https://news.google.com/articles/CBMiSmh0dHBzOi8vd3d3Lm1sYi5jb20vbmV3cy9jaHJpcy1iYXNzaXR0LXRvLXJldHVybi1mb3ItYXRobGV0aWNzLW9uLXRodXJzZGF50gFTaHR0cHM6Ly93d3cubWxiLmNvbS9hbXAvbmV3cy9jaHJpcy1iYXNzaXR0LXRvLXJldHVybi1mb3ItYXRobGV0aWNzLW9uLXRodXJzZGF5Lmh0bWw?hl=en-US&gl=US&ceid=US%3Aen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wegner Posted September 22, 2021 Share Posted September 22, 2021 Hey is anything allowed on this off day talk? I'm going a game next week and thought I would try the Rock Island to the game. The last time I drove and it took forever to get out of the lot after the game. I figured it would also allow me to enjoy some gumballheads at the game. Anyone here have a positive or negative experience riding the Rock Island to 35th?? Thanks in advance,,,,I'll hang up and listen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had my first one in a long time a couple of weeks ago before for a Cubs game, still excellent after all these years. Had several Oberon pours in the skybox, likely my last of the season.

I primarily use Beer Advocate for my beer ratings and conversation, and don't have an untappd ID, but the site gets a lot more activity in terms of bars paying to publish their tap lists. You don't need a sign in to find bars which offer a particular beer, I posted the link below to Gumballhead (just need to update your address). https://untappd.com/b/3-floyds-brewing-company-gumballhead/9954/nearby I used to buy a couple cases of FFF beer at least once a year leaving from a visit to their taproom, but haven't been back since they closed their taproom (to go still open). Still have their beers on draft when I come across, and sometimes pick up a single to try something new when it sounds interesting. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was the type of guy who would buy a bottle of scotch at a liquor store to bring onto the train… then the next thing I know it would be 8 hours later and I’d still be on the train with soiled pants.

Thanks in advance,,,,I'll hang up and listen. Ive taken it to the game a number of times this year. Its convenient. They don’t time the trains to the end of the game though, so if you miss it you might hVe to wait up to two hours for the next train. Get the app and buy your ticket there its only like 3.50 one way. plus, you can drink on the train!

Baseball players are very superstitious. They wore them for weekend series and won all 3. So kept going and won 2 more. Maybe they will keep going with upcoming Yankee series. Boston looks like they are headed for a WC slot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It wasn’t so much the look of the jerseys. Wasn’t it the material and how they felt when he was trying to pitch with them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
