Oh I was thinking you were going to say you were going to go. But I guess SA is the home team. I think No 1 told me game 3 is on Monday when I fly back.
The provided lunch has sucked. We're going to find a pizza place near by. There also is a Lebanese place near by but we may save that for dinner so we can eat more things.
Dinner last night was a place we walked around randomly because the place someone looked for was closed due to the Italy Republic Day and lots of places were closed. I had a potato wrapped sea bass which was amazing. Sea Bass wrapped in thinly cut white or Yukon potatoes, breaded and pan fried. Amazingly good. And burrata, stuffed squid, and bruschetta.
That's the continent I know the least about. I know maybe half the country names, many of which aren't at the top of my tongue. And have no idea where most of them are. Hoping playing these games gives me a better idea of the general geography of the area. Similar to the stans and some of the old Russian countries.
I've been playing Worldle for a couple years and it's helped my improve my geography knowledge. I'm still not great with Africa, but I'm better. What's helped me is checking Google Maps after my failed attempts to see where my memory is weak. I'm new to Travle, but I figure the same holds.
The Golden State Valkyries set a franchise record with 18 made 3-pointers in their 95-77 Commissioner's Cup victory over the Portland Fire at Chase Center on Tuesday. Kayla Thornton rained in a team-best five 3-pointers leading the charge as eight different Valkyries made at least one triple. Thornton tied a season-high with 19 points, while Janelle Salaün added 18 points and three 3-pointers. Twelve of the Valkyries' 3-pointers came in the first half as they built up a lead as large as 22 points. However, the Fire would make the game competitive by beginning the fourth quarter on an 11-1 run and pulling within eight points. Golden State would have an answer though, doubling up Portland 20-10 the rest of the way to seal the win. The Valkyries doubled up the Fire's 3-point total, 18-9, meaning they had a 27-point advantage from behind the arc.
Vegas Golden Knights take game 1 of the Stanley Cup Finals over the Carolina Hurricane. The reason I posted this is because ex-Sharks Teenage Mutant Ninja Hertl (Tomas) got the game winning goal for the VGK. Good for him, VGK sucks.
When the San Francisco Giants cut bait on top pitching prospect Kyle Harrison last season in the Rafael Devers trade, they knew there was a chance that the then 23-year-old would come back to haunt them. Just under a year after the trade, that possibility became a reality.
That Devers for Kyle Harrison and James Tibbs III trade (and others) is haunting the Giants. Kyle Harrison figured it out with the Brewers and James Tibbs III is killing it with the Dodgers in the minors. Tibbs got traded to the Dodgers for Dustin May and Kyle Harrison got dealt to the Brewers in a 6 person trade to get Durbin and others.
The Dodgers peppered their offense throughout Tuesday’s game, then rode the high wire as the bullpen recorded the final 13 outs of a 6-5 win over the Arizona Diamondbacks at Chase Field in Phoenix.
After a night with minimal scoring chances, the Dodgers offense wasted no time on Tuesday, with Shohei Ohtani in the middle of everything in what has historically been the best month of his career.
California women's tennis co-captain Berta Passola Folch capped an amazing career when she was named to the College Sports Communicators Academic All-America First Team, the CSC announced Tuesday. This is the first CSC Academic All-America honor for the Spaniard, who completed a stellar Cal tenure in early May when she led Golden Bears to the second round of the NCAA Championship.
DBD Lunch
Leftovers. Chicken piccatta topped with pickled fresh strawberries and chives from my garden + roasted broccoli (roasting brassicas above 350F dectivates some of the sulfur compounds)
I am guessing our catered lunch will be mediocre again
Tonight's fun team building activity is beer and pizza and bowling at Chelsea Piers.
I figure I'll find a local bar afterwards for the Knicks vs SA game
Oh I was thinking you were going to say you were going to go. But I guess SA is the home team. I think No 1 told me game 3 is on Monday when I fly back.
Maybe I'll meet up with him in the city rather than waiting 3 hours for the Amtrak

There are two larger countries in eastern Africa that will get you most of the way there...

My siblings and I would fight over who would be the 1930s era roadster.
Sounds familiar.
I was the hat or the ship usually.
Strangely I still remembered many many details from this game, like how much it would cost if you landed on The Ventnor with 3 houses.

I think maybe I put the Hat on the Ship.
