Sad, sad, sad.
Once-upon-a-time players used to compete hard in those games.
Now they are clown shows.
The NBA All-Star Game sunk to a new low this past weekend.
Players literally standing like mannequins in the lane while opposing players dribbled in and made half-assed lay-ups, or Harlem Globetrotter trick shots.
Seeing we've loads of English football fans on the board, this is good.
It's the Atherstone Ball Game, the oldest ball game in the world dating back to 1199. Fans from different counties compete after the match to possess an oversized football and whoever has possession at 5:00 PM wins. Originally the game was played for a small bag of gold.
This year Atherstone got the ball, retreated into the doorway of a William Hill shop while Leicestershire fans laid siege. The police look on and all have a pint afterwards.

That's good stuff. I don't see any gender studies majors lisping about their right to possess the ball equitably. Just men being men and observing gentlemanly rules of combat. When the timer expires, everyone goes their separate ways. The world needs more of this, not less.

In prison, full moon nights have a kind of brutal sodomy that can't fully be described with mere words.
Brits beating the shit out of each other is always good.

You are truly one of the worst pieces of shit to ever post on this board. Start giving up your paycheck for reparations now and then you can shut the fuck up about your racist blasts.
I had always assumed most posters in here had either participated in sports or were at the least sports fans. I’ve now learned otherwise. And that’s fine, but I’d suggest not commenting on a post if you don’t know WTF you’re talking about. Preseason MLB just started, Diego. College baseball and softball are cranked up. Catch a game sometime.
A play that clears the bases without clearing the bases. What’s next? A scoring play where there is no scoring? That’s like saying you got laid when you didn’t. Something I’m sure you are quite familiar with.
I'm with Spray. The concept of "clearing the bases" as a batter is when you have the bases loaded during your at bat, and you drive them all in. Yes, you can clear the bases with a single if it drives all three baserunners home.
Hope that helps.

Oh I know that is what meat headed “sports” guys call it. I was speaking from the perspective of using English and not butt fucking your own language in the mouth.

Perhaps Python will be the only one who might try this, but wow is this a phenomenal recipe. Yes this works with shrimp as well.
Marty J’s (Chabert) Ètouffèe
3 lbs of onions (white or Yellow)
Diced... I use white
3 containers of Guidry seasoning mix (onions,bell peppers Garlic etc)
6 lbs of Peeled Crawfish
1/4 cup of paprika
Cayenne pepper to taste 1/2 teaspoon at a time
Tony's seasoning to taste 1 tablespoon at a time
4 sticks of sweat cream unsalted butter (NOT Margarine)
1 cup of flour
1/4 cup chopped green onions
In large oval aluminum pot
Melt 3 sticks of butter
Add onions and Guidry's
Sauté down until clear or transparent (tender)
Add 1/8 cup of the paprika
Add couple tablespoons Tony's seasoning
Add couple of teaspoons of cayenne(if you choose too)
Add 3lbs crawfish and sauté for another 20 minutes
Butter Roux
In separate pan melt stick of butter then add 1cup of flour
Stirring roux constantly until a creamy consistency and a peanut butter color
Add roux to onions and crawfish mixture sauté for 15-20 minutes add remaining crawfish until crawfish mixture comes to a simmer (slightly bubbling stirring to make sure doesn't stick to bottom of pot)
Add rest of paprika and Tony's and cayenne as needed for taste
If etoufee' is too thin add tablespoon of corn starch to 1/4 cup of cold water stir then add until thickness desired
If too thick add chicken stock or seafood stock or plain water until consistency desired.
Serve over rice
add a pinch of fresh chopped green onions
Enjoy!
I wouldn’t ever try that recipe.
Guidry seasoning mix ?? Really?
Tony’s seasoning?
If too thin just add corn starch? Why bother making the butter roux?

What's wrong with Stouffers salisbury steak? It's a roasted beef patty with real onion and gravy that looks like it was made with a proper roux.
Jsc, that recipe sounds similar to one I make with crab and shrimp but it does not use spice mixes and mine has celery.
You probably put ketchup on everything...

Another confirmed non sports person. And that’s okay. Not everyone played baseball.

I have not made that exact recipe, and even though it is easier to use Guidry's (which has celery), I prefer to chop up all the veggies myself. Tony's seasoning is good, a classic really, but I prefer Chef Paul Prudhomme's Seafood Magic.
Marty used to run a restaurant, the guy knows his food.
So the recipe you post is not the recipe you use?
What is one to make of your posts? Integrity??
Instead you spin to some bs name drop.
JSC, why didn’t you just start with your name drop? So much self importance?

I was talking about the bastardization of words, not if you meatheads call it clearing the bases when they are not clear. Can you fucking read you fat retard?

It’s been baseball terminology since the first game ever played.
Do you and Diego confront every game’s announcers to gripe about baseball lingo?
Are you an announcer? That’s what I thought. And yes I have had many a douche bag on the stand and grilled them for saying cocaine is a narcotic or any number of other linguistic nightmares.
