@BeeTEE15 The entire NHL is a glorified beer league An 8:00 start getting pushed back til 8:30 because the game before it is on the same network and went to OT is the most beer league shit ive ever seen

The Buffalo Sabres and Montreal Canadians are straight up playing an 11:10pm beer league game right now

Jon Taffer has kept 141 bars alive. Gordon Ramsay has kept 18 restaurants alive. The success rate gap is 51% vs 21%, and the reason has nothing to do with who yells louder. A bar's profit center is alcohol. Gross margins on spirits run 75-85%. On draft beer, 80%. The average pour cost sits around 20%, meaning for every $10 a customer spends at the bar, $8 is gross profit. When a bar is failing, the core product still prints money. The problem is almost always operational: theft, over-pouring, neglected kitchens, bad branding. Fix the systems and the margins do the rest. A restaurant's profit center is food. Average net margin for full service: 3-5%. The product itself has to be excellent because there's zero cushion. When Ramsay walks into a failing restaurant and the food is terrible, he has to fix the chef, the menu, the sourcing, the kitchen workflow, the plating, and the service simultaneously. He's rebuilding the engine while Taffer is changing the oil in a Ferrari. That's also why Bar Rescue health violations look like they're from a different planet. When 80% of your revenue comes from liquor, the kitchen is the last thing anyone invests in. Every dollar going to the fryer is a dollar away from the profit center. The food exists to keep people drinking. Walk-in coolers rot because nobody checks them. Grease traps overflow because nobody cares. The kitchen is an afterthought maintained with afterthought-level attention. Taffer figured out the highest-leverage consulting niche in hospitality. High-margin product, operational problems with operational fixes, and owners desperate enough to listen. Ramsay picked the game where the economics work against you from the jump. Both are elite at what they do. Taffer's success rate is 2.4x higher because the math was always on his side.

@Kevin_Kinkead @CrossingBroad The camden riversharks were more of a philly team than the union have ever been

as a thought experiment, please answer this series of questions: Villanova is a Philly school: yes/no Aronimink is a Philly golf course: yes/no the Union are a Philly team: yes/no

Might be time to stop hating mitch marner. This was absurd

@dhwanisaraiya_ Immaculate. Where do u even find a chair like that. Need one for my studio

@cbyrne03 Trash can is in your username for a reason clearly

Once again the flyers lose a playoff game with Michkov as a healthy scratch. Maybe 39 aint the fuckin problem

@_piccone I did the same thing with Miracle at the Meadowlands II when it was 31-10 , felt great

Some outlet (I forget which one, the video was on a website for a while after but I never saved it) asked me my prediction for the rest of the series outside of Chickie’s and Pete’s and I said Flyers in 7 It was the coolest prediction I ever made, even if it was tongue-in-cheek

People who hate RHCP because of Kiedis annoy me because there is not a single band where you oughta listen beyond the vocals more than them. I'm a lyrics guy and even i can't tell you the words to most of my favorite RHCP songs. Their instrumentation is downright wicked

I triple dog dare @espn to switch up the Free Bird before commerical with some Green Grass and High Tides

@JimIkeHW I also think on some level we are seeing the difference in chemistry between a team that has gone on many playoff runs together and a team where half the forwards joined the team this season, some of whom didn't even arrive until March. Great oppurtunity to develop the nucleus

Moving forward I think Flyers are realizing things don’t get easier as they advance, quite the opposite. They’ll have to play even faster and physical just to hang in games. Carolina is the best team for them to play right now as they have the most playoff experience. They know what playoff hockey is. Flyers are no doubt taking notes for future.

This is the type of game that people who complain about playoff hockey officiating want more of, and it stinks

@_iamlougotti The Stones put out good stuff with Ronnie but never peaked with him the way they did with Mick Taylor. The Pogues tried to continue without Shane MacGowan and it just didn't work. Guns N Roses fell apart without Izzy Stradlin.

Name a band or group that was never the same after losing a member

What an exceptionally stylish man he was. RIP Charlie.x

@BearjSpeaks @GMurphPhils 100%. It sounds fine on its own and tells you exactly what it is. No need to fix what isn't broken.

@GMurphPhils Call it a 3 pitch inning. Why complicate it? The rest is understood and therefore unnecessary.

Settle the debate. What should a 3 pitch 3 out inning be called? Immaculate inning is taken. What do we think.

@LOLstrtJournal @BeeTEE15 Bro just discovered playing off wing 😂

honestly the second half of that period was much much better. this team is so young, experiencing this all for the first time. on 2 days rest in a loud building against a top team in the league.

@TerryFranconia Was it good?

The 2 craziest cameos in Devil Wears Prada 2 were Karl-Anthony Towns and Rory McIlroy
