    OT: RIP Diego Maradona

    RIP. There are few if any athletes that meant as much to their country as Maradona meant to Argentina. I will always fondly remember him for delivering one of the best knee kicks I've ever seen outside of an MMA match. Edit: video is age restricted so I can't post with timestamp, but jump...

    Premier League is back. Who you got?

    Yeah, fingers crossed for both Toby and Vic. It would be a huge boon to the defense to have those two back. Given that Poch makes Ash look like a gossip when it comes to disclosing injury details, I've been taking all positive news on the injury front with a grain of salt, especially after the...

    Premier League is back. Who you got?

    Spurs have historically had quiet January transfer windows. Not sure if the deeper CL push combined with the tight competition for 2nd to 4th/5th will buck that trend. More depth never hurts, especially considering the gauntlet leading up to the first leg of the RO16: 1/31 vs. Man United; 2/4...

    OT: I think we just had an earthquake

    Felt it over in Princeton (or at least my secretary did, I was oblivious).

    Premier League is back. Who you got?

    Agreed on Dier -- love him as a defensive mid but he seems to get caught out of position too often when he is slotted in at CB. Also, that stat is crazy. I would've never guessed Trips over Eriksen, but the man knows how to put in a cross. Luckily Vorm is one of the best backup keepers in the...

    Premier League is back. Who you got?

    No comments on Spurs' CL win over RMA?! Incredible performance to qualify for the round of 16 and end RMA's 30 game CL group stage unbeaten streak. Hopefully Toby isn't out too long with the hammy. Also, **** Casemiro. I don't know how he gets away with his theatrics game after game, let alone...

    Premier League is back. Who you got?

    Yesterday was an incredible result for Spurs, especially considering that in RMA's last 24 UCL group stage games played at the Bernabeu, they have now won 21, drawn 3 and lost none. Loved the way Aurier and Sissoko were playing off each other. Winks, Sanchez and Alderweireld were all great, and...

    Premier League is back. Who you got?

    Another Spurs fan checking in. Thought they looked okay yesterday but lacking a little pace on the attacking side. Wife is a Chelsea fan so this first weekend was wonderful and I'm just hoping that they don't bottle it next weekend. I know I'm not really going out on a limb with these...

    OT - Anyone ever see Clapton live in concert?

    Saw Clapton at MSG two years ago and he was fantastic. I'm usually not into shows at large arenas, but as mentioned above, the sound system was impressive.

    OT: Sony PS Vue

    As long as you are in a major market area, the local channels will be live. I believe you can check on the sony vue website which market you would be in based on your zip code which determines which local channels you would get. In East Windsor I get the New York local channels. The sports...

    OT: Becoming a partner in a business

    What type of business entity are we talking about? You are getting some good information in this thread, but some of it pertains more to partnerships than corporations. Assuming it is a corporation since you mentioned it is incorporated in California, your equity comp possibilities will depend...

    Jury Duty

    Some of my fondest memories from my clerkship were listening to the courtroom feed during jury selection and hearing the judge I clerked for ruthlessly skewer people who were trying to make up excuses to get out of serving.

    OT: btn network cutting cord

    I have fios 50/50 and haven't had any problems or hiccups using Playstation Vue. I have my playstation connected via ethernet directly to my LAN, so I can't comment on the quality of the wireless streaming, but that will be largely dependent on your internet speed, router, distance from router...
