    Same side sitters

    Huh, I guess not many wives/girlfriends of folks on here like to wear skirts or short-ish shorts. Side-by-side is definitely the better option.

    Friday night (weekend) beer thread

    Drinking some home brewed Oktoberfest. Might switch to a home brewed Porter as the evening goes along.

    What are you drinking Thursday?

    Finally someone who knows what they are talking about, other than the homebrewers in the crowd, of course. I'll be drinking some homebrewed pale, and if that runs out, I'll switch to my collection of Midwest craft brews that I picked up last time I was in Iowa.

    They have a nice paragraph about Brackins on Hornets247.com, which is the Hornets entry into the ESPN TrueHoop network. Nice banner pic, as well. The Warriors beat the Hornets - Hornets247.com

    Remember Cincy ?

    I remember it fondly. We got a carload of guys together to go, figuring we'd be back the day after the UCONN game. Silly us. Also had this conversation with our group, while dining at Skyline: Consensus of the table: Our server is hot, One buddy: Sometimes I wish this were the caveman days...

    Regarding Brackins

    I thought this, too, until I looked at the projected draft order this year, after taking trades into account: 24 - Minnesota 25 - Atlanta 26 - Memphis 27 - New Jersey 28 - Orlando 29 - Memphis 30 - Washington

    Brackins and Gilstrap: NBA

    In the Bill Simmons podcast (last week, maybe?) with the Houston Rockets GM, they talked about this a little bit. The Houston GM mentioned the other end of this and how strong the 2012 draft could be, as all of the "one-and-done" guys who will be freshman next year may stay for a second year...

    Duke Fans Nervous?

    Not sure how nervous most of their fans are. I work in Raleigh and have several coworkers who regularly attend Duke games. Whenever I tried to start any trash talk over the previous couple of weeks, I got blank stares. Most of them had forgotten that they were playing Iowa State. All they cared...

    Wherre to watch the bowl game in Wake Forest N.C. area?

    Re: Where to watch the bowl game in Wake Forest N.C. area? This is a down year for them, but normally, the home game atmosphere is pretty impressive. Making a couple of Stanley Cup finals and winning one sure helps, as does being the only pro team in town. College basketball may be king in...

    Wherre to watch the bowl game in Wake Forest N.C. area?

    Re: Where to watch the bowl game in Wake Forest N.C. area? I'm in Raleigh and was wondering the same thing. There is a home Hurricane's game, but not until 8 pm ET, so I would guess that with a 6 pm start time, the Ale Houses would be a good place to watch. That would probably be your best...

    Been too long since the last beer thread

    I'm all over the map tonight. Had a Corona with some fajitas earlier, now working my way through a Bell's Two-Hearted, and will probably switch over to some homebrewed Chocolate Dunkel for "dessert." Someone made mention of DFH 120-minute earlier. I've had a bottle sitting in my pantry for...

    Whats in your carboy?

    I've only dry hopped a couple of times, but each time I used one ounce of Cascade, and that seemed to work well for me. The AA of the hop shouldn't matter, as you aren't boiling them. Of course, my choice to do one ounce was based on economics. I bought a two-ounce packet of leaf hops and...

    Almost empty keg: Jalepeno Golden Just kegged: Chocolate Dunkel Currently boiling: Summer Pale (slightly lighter-colored, lighter-hopped, but not enough to be a golden)

    Has anyone purchased MLB.TV?

    I got MLBTV the second half of last season and I wished I'd have gotten it the entire season. Very much worth it, if you're out of your team's market.

    Raleigh Game Watch?

    Hmm, looks like no game watch. At home, it is.
