Hey folks....didnt want to start a new thread on this....but Bleacher Report and Reddit are saying that Sam Rosen collapsed at his grandson's baseball game yesterday....havent seen anything on this in the news or anywhere else, so it could just be bullshit (although I cant fathom why anyone would want to make up a story like that).

Has anyone else seen or heard anything about this?

Sometimes some people realize things when they get older. When my wife is in a bad mood and wants to argue, fight, and yell, I go for a long walk, sit outside, or take a long nap with the door locked.

After my son's sophomore year of high school, we moved to ATL. There's no snow or ice in the winter to shovel or drive on. We bought a new five-bedroom house for a low price, it's doubled in value, the property taxes are 10% of what they were in the Great White North, and the state income taxes are low. My son got a GA four-year college scholarship, and I paid no tuition. He met his girlfriend in high school, her father bought a house in ATL, my son has lived with her there since his freshman year in college, and I paid $300 rent for him during college. After graduation he got a good job with a major global corporation and now, he pays the $300 rent. I like to pretend I'm smarter than the average bear. @Dr Pepper

Apparently the young whippersnapper is sometimes like the young grasshopper...
growing in wisdom.

Remember to always use this power for good, not evil, that you may be further blessed.

"To be, or not to be that is the question: Whether 'tis nobler in the mind
to suffer the slings and arrows of outrageous fortune" Shakespeare, Hamlet

I had to take an emergency poop in a store handicapped toilet with the door wide open because the lock was broken, and the door stays open.

 

[Dr Pepper]

Y'know, I bet Shakespeare wrote half of Hamlet whilst on the toilet.

Fitting.

Have you shared your website of all things bernmeister?

I have limited mention of it to avoid potential/actual appearance of conflict as to being commercial here at HFB.

To answer your ?, www.bernmeister.com is effectively bern central.

There you can find discussion of my academic work and entertainment projects. There you can also buy a copy of my 28 pg single spaced primer on my M Monetary System ("MMS").

How does everyone feel about the third jerseys? Originally I didnt care for then but my gf loved them. Ive since begun loving them- especially after hearing how they were designed to be “nyc nights”.


Ive always liked the dark blue too.

Thoughts?

I love both iterations of the Liberty jerseys. Wasn't a huge fan of the new design because of the thinner stripes/different sleeve design, but they grew on me real fast especially after seeing them on the ice. The OG version will always be the better one in my eyes though just for nostalgia.

My brain also definitely made up that the old version had some kind of striping on the bottom. But I found a fan made version that is exactly what I wish the Liberties looked like:
