I was thinking that just the other day. But you know what? Camp starts this week then preseason games, fantasy football and BOOM!!! Footballs back baby!

...at wearing bras.

....at shitting his pants.

Everything in football seems to start at the line. I think the saints improved their OL markedly. You give Drew Brees time he still has the talent to hit his receiver regardless of whether he has Jimmy Graham or not. CJ Spiller is a really good back IF he stays healthy, which he hasn't been able to do. I think they still have enough to compete for the division. I don't think their D has the ability to shut teams out, but I think they'll be able to score points. Regardless, F the Saints in the A.

So we get a big guy who can't play defense for a defense first team who just got rid of a big guy because he can't play defense. Charlotte is gonna Charlotte.

Good breakdown on the different coverage schemes. When I look at the defense I usually just see a bunch of dudes rolling around. I think gettleman has been practicing some forward thinking with his drafts. He's seeing how the league is evolving and is adapting to it (or at least that's how I feel). Were you able to check out the son doong cave ? Think it's in Vietnam near the Laosian border. One of the biggest caves in the world!

Who the hell is ready for some football?! I'm so happy we finally have a franchise QB for the next 5 years. I thought we made a terrible mistake when we drafted cam, but I am so happy I was made to look like a fool! Go panthas!

I'm 38 and I was a saints fan when I was younger. I loved Bobby Herbert, Sam mills, pat swilling, Jackson, and ironhead. Now I can't stand them and hope they die.

I'd be ok with a public caning.

Cowboys line keeps getting stronger. Might have to draft McFadden in fantasy this year.

Boner alert!

Cam + Olsen + KB + Funchess = Four Horsemen

Takin' care of Benjness

Done. Threads complete.

I see what you did there Gettleman 1430600907638.jpg

Nipplepants?

Ifo's knee must be really f'd up if he didn't get drafted.

Any Texas State die hards willing to give us some insight? LOL

It's like Dave gives one selection a year to his neighbors retarded 11 year old son just to bring a smile to that little door knob licker.

Maybe. For me, It's just nice to have confidence in the GM. It feels like he really has a plan and sticks to it and to hell with what everyone thinks.

Tons of wr left in the middle rounds that can come in and start. Dont be reactionary.

Boner time

On tha clock!!

I have the biggest draft boner right now.

Hicks died in Alien 3.

Game over, man!

So here's the thing with Pliny The Elder, and this is going to be a very long post, so if you aren't interested, move the fug along nothing to see here; it's difficult to get because the people at Russian River are (from what I hear) somewhat difficult to work with. The best comparison I've heard is like a Steve Jobs. He was very particular and if you didn't do things the way he wanted, you're fuged.

For example, the liquor store I buy most of my craft brew at here in Livermore is called Perry's and is owned by a guy that also owns a craft beer bar downtown called The Beer Baron. He had a distribution arrangement setup with Russian River (which is hard enough to get as it is, they intentionally short the market to keep demand high) to be able to sell their 750mL bottles in his store (yes, 750mL bottles, because RR refuses to do 22oz. bombers like everyone else on the planet, fugers).

Well, he decided to sell the Pliny in his other establishment as well, and they basically Vegas-Al-Capone-style blacklisted him for life.

Another one is that a pizza place I used to go to all the time in Fremont has 32 micro brews on tap rotating. The guy there told me RR won't distribute to them, because years ago the City of Fremont denied permits to RR for like a brewpub location and so now RR won't distribute to anyone in that city.

BevMo is a huge chain liquor store here in Cali, and RR won't even distribute to them (which is a godsend contract if you make craft beer) because BevMo wouldn't guarantee cooler space, just space on the shelf like everyone else. Russian River didn't want someone to pickup a beer and drink it warm and god forbid not like it, so they declined.

That being said, they deserve to have their beer experienced under their terms, because it is widely considered throughout the beer world as exceptional, and it is. So they are very careful about who they distribute to, and again, they intentionally short the market to keep a cult-like status.

Anyway, enough of my rambling. Yes, I get Pliny all the time. I live a couple of hours drive from the brewery, so my wife and I will take a trip out that way every few months and I'll buy a couple cases of Pliny as well as Blind Pig (which I actually like better than Pliny, but both are great beers). While out there, we typically stop at Bear Republic in Healdsburg (of Racer 5 fame) and Lagunitas in Petaluma.

I don't know what the laws are for shipping alcohol, but so long as we aren't breaking any rules I'd be happy to buy you a case and ship it to you. Just pay me for the cost of the beer and shipping, I certainly won't mark it up or anything. I'll PM you next time I go out there, which will hopefully be soon because I'm out of BP and only have two Pliny's left that I've been saving for Warriors playoff basketball. :cheers:

That's cool, I actually like knowing the backstory. Sounds a lot like the soup nazi. It's crazy, because actually 2 buddies of mine have elevated PTE into cult status. I have to try it before I die.

I'm not sure if shipping alcohol across state lines is legal, I've been looking but can't find a definitive answer. I'd most def give you something, you know, for the effort.

Regardless, I hope you get to crack open those pliny's celebrating a warriors championship. If you don't mind, can you at least ship us Stephan curry? Or Thompson? Or David Lee? Hell, I'd settle for mareese speights.

Monsta, a buddy of mine was telling me about Pliny the elder and how it's impossible to get. I remember from a different thread you mentioned said beer. Can you get it? If so, what can I give you in trade ?
