Re: Food thread - All things food-related

I am a steamer myself, but my wife roasts them covered in the oven.
They are much better roasted, but I wear out the steel wool cleaning it up.

Re: Annoying Trendy Sayings

Interesting how you look at things differently when you get older. One of my favorite Carlin routines was "stuff". Obviously the language was not the same, but is the substance all that different from a lecture you might have received from the nuns about materialism in the old days? His mo...

Re: Conference Champion Picks

Ivy - I think Princeton is fully back to their “pre-covid” dominance. What now? I couldve worded that better. That 2020 Princeton team was 5-0 when covid hit and was on a war path led by Michael Sowers, Chris Brown, and Connor McCarthy. Mind you Sam English and Jake Stevens were second line/rotatio...

Re: Syracuse 2024

What is the worst I read about him? He is more Stanwick, than Shellenberger. If another Stanwick were available, I would hope the Jays go all-in. So I get the slow afoot/top poles can handle him thing, but as of now he's 2nd team all-american which is about as good as it gets for a sophomore. He do...

Re: 2024 top 20

The Jays used to schedule Princeton regularly.
I think PSU / UPenn would be a good match-up. I think UPenn already plays Villanova and St. Joe's. If they add Drexel, it could be a Big 5 tournament for Commonweath bragging rights.

Re: NIL and Lacrosse

-Regarding NIL -- Pete said that he believes that schools will very soon be managing NIL programs 'in-house' rather than through programs/boosters. ND is already preparing a team to manage NIL directly so that there is a smooth transition and no unnecessary lag or prep time for when that happens. h...

Re: Johns Hopkins 2024

That call on Kilrain was nonsense. They never call guys who blow up picks. And they’ve been letting them play all day. Letting Hopkins play all game Letting both sides play. And that call was soft. No worse than the push call on Beohm The key to making sure the ref notices the push is how you sell ...

Re: 2024 top 20

Personally, I like the Power Rankings . I might like it even more if, instead of an arbitrary 10-goal cutoff, they used some kind of log function or Fibonacci sequence. It incorporates margin of victory and home field advantage, but does not trend. That is, an outcome in February is as significant a...

Re: Notre Dame 2024

I have no inside information, but I read that as soon as Jordan Faison played a single down last fall, his (I assume partial) lax scholarship was terminated and he was given a full-ride football scholarship.

Re: TV Broadcasts/Announcers/Production

There was a discussion on antother thread about announcing, and yesterday I watched UMD/Rutgers WLax. The male PBP announcer said Player Advantage while the female color said man-up. She also said man-to-man defense, when it was clear that the PBP was avoiding that term. As the game wore on it becam...

Re: Big Ten 2024

And he did come through with a couple of goals right after I posted. Look, I want players to say, "Put me in, coach, I can still do it." But I want the coach to know what is best for the program and the player long-term. I remember cringing as I watched Joey hobbling in that first Loyola g...

Re: Johns Hopkins 2024

Because we won face-offs against their back-ups.
That said, while the Jays do not have a single ace, in the heat of May it is nice to have two decent options.

Re: Food thread - All things food-related

I grew up with "sauce". Moved to Philadelphia, and "gravy" is a class marker here, indicating origins in South Philly. No high-end Italian restaurant will call it gravy.
