The Cellar is for a Hot Italian or a Mad Greek and several luck of the draw's. Never had a burger there
yes but only one of those was el rods when I was there, the other was some other name, and there was the tequila bar.
Fair point.
I guess Mexican had the biggest competition.

# | USA's Alex Freeman, Son of Hokie Legend Antonio Freeman, Scores His First World Cup Goal what's the story behind getting it?
I will replicate this for 4 July weekend. I will report back.
Speaking of Jack Brown's I did some internet searching and have legitimate #sauces for this one.
If anyone actually wants to replicate this:
1. I'd recommend scaling it back for home use.
2. Mae Ploy is Mae Ploy Sweet chili sauce, and the specific mustard used is Gulden's spicy brown mustard.
England are fortunate Croatia wins 1-0. With that result England will advance. A win over Panama secures top spot. A draw could too, provided Croatia and Ghana also draw. If England lose to Panama they could be jumped by one of Croatia and Ghana but not both. I expect Panama to play a more open style than Ghana against England. They'll need to if they want to win and get some points. That will suit England's style more and will lend itself to more clear cut chances that England will surely put in the net.

They've had separate international pathways and whatnot in the past (I know Washington had some TE from Chile who never did anything that came in as an international prospect), but I assume this is pretty ironclad in the CBA. It's a pathway that is absolutely rife with possibility for abuse if it isn't. The folks writing these aren't dummies. They don't want draft eligible folks being able to dodge the draft. Breaks their whole business model.
The guy with the beard and the middle fingers does look quite a bit like me.
Yeap. The nfl leadership cares too much about their brand to let in someone with a gambling issue. If it were any other crime/accusation that didn't involve jail time, and he was actually good enough to play, he would've been given a shot.

# | Virginia Tech Officially Announces Brian White as the New VP and AD It's like when I was explaining baseball to a postdoc in my old lab who was from Italy. I say to her. There's 2 teams, and there's a ball, and th object is to score more than the other team. It's just like soccer.
One of the lab techs (from the US) countered it was nothing like soccer.
I am enjoying Sorsbys legal team threatening a suit on the NFL to put the cherry on top after this ruling. Billable hours stay undefeated and to try and go up against one of the richest sporting institutions that will have far superior legal power and lawyers to anything the NCAA could even sniff at makes me laugh. Id almost consider letting them have a supplemental draft just for him to go unpicked so he can try and sue for collusion.
I mean, a ball's a ball's a ball, amirite?
Disappointing result for England. Credit Ghana for playing a very defensive low block to frustrate England. England made changes to unlock the low block but it was far too late. They created more chances in the second half but failed to net one. Still lead the group but will need to win their final match to secure the top spot. Nightmare scenario is Panama beats Croatia tonight, making that match very dangerous for England. A loss there paired with Ghana winning over Croatia could knock them down to 3rd. You had better believe England are pulling hard for Croatia
TL;DR Translation:
1) The NFL will not hold a supplemental draft for Sorsby.
2) The NFL has sole right of determining whether a supplemental draft exists. It's an extreme rarity for the NFL to have a supplemental draft.
3) Sorsby's petition did not meet the NFL's expectations. It is incomplete and lacks the information for the NFL to make an informed decision, including the reasons why the NCAA has declared Sorsby is ineligible.
4) It is publicly known that gambling was the reason for Sorsby's dismissal from the NCAA. The petition does not address this issue or how Sorsby intends to abide by the NFL's policies governing integrity of competition.
5) It is clear that Sorsby is attempting to skirt the rules and accountability.
6) Sorsby can participate in the 2027 draft.
Then we need to schedule the Citadel mid to late season.
Don't all sports sport the same? /s
For sure, all of the major Sports Leagues are talking out of both sides of their mouths on this one.
But the rules are also very, very clear among each organization. And those players that have been implicated previously--Pete Rose and more recently Jontay Porter and Terry Rozier have been dealt with decisively and severely.
I don't see how the NFL maintains credible authority with the players by letting a Rookie QB come into the league who has clearly broken those standards. Sorsby is IMHO a low-level Starter or Back-up talent to start with.
I suspect the NFL continues to make it very difficult for him to gain entry, he likely never takes a meaningful snap in the NFL and probably is headed to a UFL team near you...
Houston Gamblers seems like a natural fit...

# | Virginia Tech Officially Announces Brian White as the New VP and AD If the basketball coach was talented enough to bolt to the NFL then it really was one hell of a hire!
Actually Strike One was for Brian White for hiring Loeffler.

Although this is technically correct, the only way England won't advance will be if Panama beats them by 2 goals or more AND Croatia beat Ghana. Otherwise, England are in the top 2. Supposing England loses, there's really only one scenario that might happen in the other match to knock them down to 3rd. If Ghana and Croatia draw, Ghana will take the top spot on 5 points and England would be ahead of Croatia on 4 points each due to the h2h tie-breaker. If Ghana wins, England will be in 2nd on 4 points ahead of Croatia and Panama each on 3. If Croatia wins, they jump up to 1st but what happens with Ghana and England will depend on the score differences in the two matches. If Ghana loses, their GD will get worse (right now they are 1 goal behind England) so England will need to lose by 2 more goals than Ghana loses by for Ghana to take the second spot. If, at the end of it all, Ghana and England have the same GD, England will win on GF, as they have scored 3 more goals than Ghana (unless something crazy happens and Croatia beats Ghana 5-4 and England lose to Panama 2-0). Even if that happens, England would likely be one of the top 8 3rd place teams with 4 points. I think it's safe to say England and Ghana each have at least 2 more games left because I think if either falls to 3rd they'll get through on 4 points. Croatia is kind of the wildcard. They could win the group, or they could end up being one of the third place teams in the uncomfortable position of having just 3 points and may need other tie-breakers, like discipline metrics, to get through to the r32.
