    Event The English Premier League

    No mention yet of an american getting the #10 shirt at Chelsea? That said, anyone know how much NBCs EPL package is? Got rid of YouTube TV after this summer's price hike, but will need to get my soccer fix somehow.

    OT Seattle is Dying

    Can't say I actually saw it. But most of what I've heard is that it is pretty worthless. Not surprising, given the channel. https://crosscut.com/2019/03/man-used-proof-seattle-dying-tells-his-story

    Digital SLR

    I'll also add that while I normally shoot in raw, the jpegs that come out of the Fuji's are really really good. On the flip side, Lightroom and other software have issues with the raw files in certain situations. It's never been an issue to me, but Google "watercolor effect Fuji Xtrans" to check...

    Digital SLR

    Those are VERY different choices. Size, weight, price, full frame vs crop. What are you going to be shooting? I loved my xpro1, but honestly, the AF wasn't that great. Last Christmas I upgraded to the XT-2. It's a huge upgrade, though you lose the rangefinder style and optical view finder. I...

    OT Classy way for Ichiro to retire.

    I think you meant to say "including postseason". I mean, it is the M's

    Game Thread 2018-2019 College Basketball Thread

    I just looked at the score. This is ugly. There's no way UW doesn't get in... Is there?

    Rumor Nagbe Likely Leaving Timbers

    Short answer is yes, the cap space goes up. I'll let someone else explain the details. Other than generalities, I have no clue how the MLS salary cap works.

    Rumor Nagbe Likely Leaving Timbers

    According to an ESPN article I read yesterday, some of that is incentives based for things like nagbe winning the MVP, getting 12 or more goals, etc, so not all that likely. It's going to be weird watching the timbers next year

    Rumor Nagbe Likely Leaving Timbers

    Plus, it sounds like the timbers are getting a good price. I can never keep all the funny money salary cap straight. General allocation, targeted allocation, other compensation, DP, international slots. MLS is so unnecessarily complicated

    Rumor Nagbe Likely Leaving Timbers

    As a timbers fan, this sucks. As a USMNT fan, this is good. I'd rather he go abroad, but at least in ATL he's getting top notch coaching that'll hopefully get him to the next level. He spent way too long under Porter.

    Tech 2017 Apple Event

    Yeah, I got the small one. Had the 6P before, which had a great camera, but was slooow. It's night and day how quick the camera on the pixel 2 is. I've only used lens a couple of times with mixed results. But assistant was the same way when it launched, so it should get better. But fit right...

    Tech 2017 Apple Event

    Yeah, you really can't go wrong with the note/Galaxy, iPhone or pixel right now. I'm loving my pixel 2.

    OT RIP Charles Bradley

    Charles Bradley : Soul of America. At one point it was on Netflix. Not sure about now though.

    OT RIP Charles Bradley

    I highly recommend the documentary on him from a few years back. Hard not to root for him after watching it. I had the pleasure of seeing him live a few years ago. Brilliant performer. Losing both Charles Bradley and Sharon Jones in the past year is a huge loss

    OT What is your top ten cds/records/albulms to listen to?

    Now I'm listening to Float and remembering how good it is, so thanks for that, but None Shall Pass over Labor Days? For me, Aesop + Blockhead is better than Aesop alone. I'll give it another listen next.
