Chicago Away - 8/9

Is anyone going to this match? If so, where are Bay fans sitting? Thought I’d check before ordering tickets.

Favorite Restaurant with house-made pasta?

What is your favorite St. Louis restaurant that makes their own pasta?

Years ago, there was a great place just a few doors from Biggies, but I cannot remember the name.

Dzeko

I know he's 40.

I know he's not what he once was.

He's making roughly $700,000 for Schalke

If he can go 65+ for Bosnia, he could go that for us and then let Becker pull his asshattery.

It would be fantastic for drawing more Bosnians, and I think he'd like St. Louis.

He doesn't answer our questions long-term, but he's better than Becker starting.

Looking to stay in Evanston.

We are going to a Stars' game.

Staying in Evanston is much cheaper.

Thinking we'd head into the city on Saturday and then Evanston Saturday night and Sunday. Game Sunday night.

Where do you recommend staying?

How's the Hilton Garden Inn area? We might hit the farmers' market before going downtown.

What is there to do in Evanston on Sunday?

Thanks

St. Louisans on the USMNT

Currently, Tim Ream is playing for the USMNT in the World Cup.

All-time, St. Louis has had 76 players on the USMNT.

This is 3rd overall - behind NYC & LA - both have substantially greater populations than St. Louis.

In fact, 10% of all USMNT players have come from St. Louis.

Truly, The Soccer Capital of the US.

Which side do the players sit on?

Hi all, coming in from out of town to the Stars:Bay FC game. I want to sit close to the Bay bench (I know one of the players). Which side do the players sit on (East or West)?

Which section is closest to the visitor bench?

Also, making a weekend of it. Should I stay downtown or in Evanston?

TIA

English Names for Geogrphical Places

Cape Town (South Africa) - English is an official language of SA, and we refer to the city as "Cape" in English.

Cabo San Lucas (Mexico) - Spanish is the official language of Mexico, and we refer to the city as "Cabo" in English.

Cabo Frio (Brazil) - Portuguese is an official language of Brazil, and we refer to the city as "Cabo" in English

Makes sense.

Yet, Cabo Verde (Africa) - Portuguese is the official language of Cabo Verde, and we refer to the city as "Cape" in English.

Similarly, Cabo de Hornos (Chile) - Spanish is the official language of Chile, and we refer to the city as "Cape" in English.

What determines if we call something "Cape" or "Cabo?" There seems to be no consistency.

New Audio Room: Blue in Green

Made a new audio room in my house that I'm calling "Blue in Green."

Allied 495 (rebranded Pioneer SX-1500TD) - I made a bamboo case for it to match the turntable.

Fluance RT85 in bamboo

B&W 602s (S1)

I built the cabinet, the record shelves, and the speaker stands

Do you tip less than you used to?

I've been so turned off by the constant barrage of tip requests that I find I myself tipping less than I used to.

Currently,

Dives & Diners - 30%

Restaurants with waiters - 20-25%

Walk up, order, waiter brings food - 10-15%

Walk up, order, get food or take out - no tip.

Is this being unreasonable for St. Louis?

Anyone go to the Punk Rock Flea Market?

I attempted to but the traffic/ parking was insane so I bailer for a different event.

Having it at the same time and location as the farmers market was a really poor decision.

Post-Match Interviews

After every match, we should have 5 randomly chosen STH that get to ask questions of the coach at the post-match interview. We don’t have any local reporters with the balls to ask legit questions.

“Wallem has cost goals at both ends of the pitch, he has given up multiple game-winning PKs and he has 2 red cards. Why are you still playing him?”

It is not difficult.

Let’s see how good he really is!

Pep Guardiola is leaving Manchester City. If he is as good as he is held out to be, let’s see him win with the real CITY. Skip going to another huge club. Come to MLS and show us how talented you really are. He needs to come to St. Louis.

I am so sorry to have to post this here, but there are the remains of a dog on Westbound Highway 255 between Telegraph and Lindbergh against the median. It appears to be a >!gray and white pit or boxer mix.!<

I am so sorry, but if I were looking for a lost dog, I would want to know.
