Oh god damnit

 

According to Cris Carter Bradford accomplished more than Foles in his time in the NFL.

 

Financially this is true

In every other manner this is not

 

Actually financially it might not be true either depending on how much each doctors visit costs Bradford (not sure how that works, I know Hopkins/Foster said it gets really pricey)

 

Well let's just say he didn't mean financially.

 

After what sounded and looked like a phenomenal pro day (in the rain), I'm ready for Darnold to come to Cleveland. It's happening.

Jimmy Haslam, the owner of the Browns, was also at Darnold's dinner last night with GM Dorsey and Hue Jackson (ew).

 

Can't wait for them to fuck it all up and take Josh Allen

 

(I'm actually only trying to make myself feel better because that's what the Jets are going to do)

 

If the Browns take Allen at 1.......

 

More fuel to the flames...

 

Can he play guard at all? I know he was...not very good as a starter, but the Bills did need a backup C/LG to fill the role that Ryan Groy had last year now that he's going to be the starting center

 

Good Darnold interview.

 

he hasn't played Guard yet, so I'm not sure. He ends up on his back more often than not, it's pretty sad. One thing he is is durable, he's started every game all four years and was a day one starter.

 

Back to the beer convo....just got a PB&J beer. It’s dleicuous.

 

Always really intrigued by these, but I’ve never convinced myself to take the plunge before. Seems up my alley though.

 

Once I got into beer snobbery (via IPAs, etc) I used to hate the idea of that kind of stuff....lately, they are my favorite idea. Had a chocolate/raspberry sour over Xmas break that blew my mind...it was like the notes you'd get in a similar porter, but in a sour.

Trying to decide which beers my buddy is gonna brew for my wedding. One idea currently is a berlinner weisse that we'll flavor w/ raspberry, since its something both beer lovers and beer haters can agree on is delicious

 

Also, @Randall Mentzos, did you ever go to The Brewers Art when you were in Baltimore? Went there a while back and that place was amazing

 

Even their low ABV stuff (like even keel...hell, in Utah, thats the max ABV) is delicious. Hoping their opening a brewery on the east coast brings their prices down

 

Didn't know they were opening one on the east coast. I've been to their brewery (Miramar location) and it is awesome. Love me some sculpin ipa.

 

Yeah the Sculpin is awesome. Didn’t know they were opening up on the east coast either.

Also PB&J beer sounds whack

 

Ballast Point and Deschutes both opened up breweries near Roanoke, VA. I was at the Deschutes Tap Room, which was great...sadly Ballast Point wasnt open yet when I was there.

 

Yeah dude! That place is on the same block as the restaurant I used to work (Mount Vernon Stable & Saloon), less than 10 min walking distance from my old apt. North central Baltimore (Mount Vernon / Station North / Hampden) is my shit. Had a total blast seeing old friends and bar hopping when I went back through on tour last March.

Place definitely has that "tavern" aesthetic about it - brick walls, dark & only candle lit, low arches, loud as fuck inside. Like a speakeasy in an old cellar. I never ate at the upstairs restaurant but the bar / brewery was a regular hangout spot for sure.

My favorite thing there was that house brewed 10% ABV tripel ale, Sun Ra.

 

Yeah, Ive been there a couple of times, love the vibe. It reminds me of the beer cellars ive been to in Europe, and their beer was always great.

Need to make it to union craft one of these days as well
