So if I don't watch the game today we'll win. Should I take one for the team?

You have to ask this question?

Player’s Union gets an undeserved free pass. Kept winning every legal battle and it made them cocky. To the point of not allowing any drug testing. Owners simply accepted they had no choice. Plead past use of amphetamines til the sun doesn’t shine...being really alert never made a player like Brady Anderson hit 50 home runs and it never made a certain type of superstar in Bonds own every HR record when he wasn’t that type of player 3 quarters into his career. It wasn’t fun...it was a travesty. Owners never earned my love, but being enable by Congress to clamp down on this crap didn’t earn any hate either. All that and the brain dead idiots could have avoided testing if an overwhelming majority passes a PREANNOUNCED anonymous test. They knew WHEN it was happening with plenty of time to cycle off...and still failed the test at a massive rate. Cry me a river.

I agree completely, players still culpable but I didn’t like the media angle. On the other hand, Football acted and did much better. There was always steroids, but it never quite got the attention because it was penalized.

Toast and tea...keep it away from meat.

You must not enjoy things like Indian or other Asian foods. It's also a fairly common ingredient in traditional Mexican sauces like mole'. Not saying TexMex chili is strictly Mexican (obviously), but suggesting cinnamon has no use in savory dishes is uncharacteristically limited for you.

Aight bet

 

[MrVolton]

Why do you say that? Because it uses cinnamon and other non-traditional spices?

No. My mamaw used to put Dr. Pepper in her chili, and it was still chili. Chili is almost universally defined as a kind of stew with chili pepper as an ingredient. Since most Cincinnati chili recipes call for at least some amount of “chili powder,” I guess it qualifies in part. However, a stew is defined as some combination of meat and vegetables cooked slowly in a liquid. Cincinnati “chili” has nothing in it that even resembles vegetables. It is meat, water, and a hodgepodge of spices and seasonings. Therefore, it is nothing more than a meat sauce.

My personal standard for chili also requires that it be chunky, which that Cincinnati mess is not. Any kind of flavor/seasoning can be added to a chili. For me, it’s not so much what’s in Cincinnati chili that disqualifies it as chili, but what’s not in it.

Married into two Hispanic families and my brother-in-law is El Paso proper. Never seen cinnamon jars in any of the laboratories. If it had ever been slipped into menudo, I would have tossed the batch. Wife hates Indian food and never detected it in Korean or Thai or any other Asian jams. I don’t feel a bit deprived.

Thankfully the young man was able to dodge your facial genes. Hopefully he embraced your sarcasm genes... sarcasm (both ability to express and understand) is an extremely important attribute.

Nope...the kid looks just like me at his age..I hope it doesn't stay that way

This chili thing is already wearing thin for me.

But can we get opinions on marijuana flavored chilli and if the CDC approves?

naw man, but if'n you got Venison or Elk chili, with fresh grown peppers, we can talk.

Go to Vegas. I’m sure you could find some stuff to inject into your chili or other foods.

There’s a place there that you can order food and they give you a syringe and the thc to inject into your meal.

This is a burden I have to beer

[Ulysees E. McGill]

Yep. Personal preference I guess, but I can’t stand it. I love giving folks from Cincy hell about it, they get emotional about it

Got introduced to it by my stepmom who is from Cinci back in the 80s...at first I was like "This ain't chili, it sucks" but over time I actually started liking it. I love her homemade three way chili now.

I like Skyline ok..but none of the chain restaurants make it as good as her.

Wish the announcers would stop talking Tony up. He’s not that great. He’s ugly too. Women hate him. Don’t even bother @lsu @TAMU

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

I think if they had called it something besides "chili" that people wouldn't hate it so bad. I mean..on first experience your brain is expecting one thing, but you get something that is completely different than you are expecting, so it is natural to hate it at first.

Yeah..as much as I disagree with you on it being fun or not, I wish it had never happened.
