    Interesting. Are these phone conversations being picked up by Siri/Google? I wonder what Fatbastard does to avoid these. I'll have to look for the same. I would like to go to the beaches in Croatia next summer.

    Let's all mess with AdChoices!

    I'd like to visit upper Mongolia soon.

    Maybe our resident LAFC fan and moderator @morrissey could shed some light into how this all works in the LA area.

    Thx,

    Jay!

    LAFC has a Spanish Language OTA broadcast that most of the bars use.

    If YouTube TV is the local carrier the the match will be blacked out on ESPN+.

    National TV matches are not affected.

    I hear that Agent Provocateur makes some fine lingerie.

    Don't forget to rep me for that.

    I think Agent Provocateur lingerie costs more, per ounce, than gold.

    And worth every penny.

    Man, those 2014 playoff highlights still boil my blood.

    Every every perfect meal ends up as a turd. He has his station in the scheme of things too
    Kind of like the shoot-out.

    I wonder where in Maryland Rooney is living. My guess is Potomac.

    Really good sports journalists do really good work, US Soccer needs writers of this caliber.

    "The SUV pulls into an underground garage. Rooney gets in a lift that takes us to the top of the 31-storey CEB Tower, the tallest building in Washington"
    Shoulda given the guy a map, The CEB Tower is on Wilson Blvd in Rosslyn VA not Washingon DC. I do stick with a great job comment at least he didn't say since Rooney decided to go to the Colonies
