Shameless plug here. We'll be live on the LockerRoomApp at 515 PT to talk about the coaching changes and other things. Also let's any of our listeners tuning in to "call-in" so jump in if you want to talk! Just follow me @bobbysworlds on the app and it'll let you know when the room goes live

it would annoy the shit out of the Aussie if I came home with a pair of knockoff Uggs. he still can't get over people wearing them outdoors in public. growing up in queensland i don't think his feet were ever cold, he went to class barefoot every day of his 2nd year at uni.

I have to admit I did the Top Siders no socks in the winter for a little bit. /hangheadinshame

Not usually in the winter, but I still regularly do Top Siders (both classic leather and canvas ones) with no socks. But that is actually acceptable and practical work attire for me

Like you said, you're on a boat (but probably not with T-Pain). I was a kid in Moraga. No 1 also had Top Siders in HS but had socks.

CDC directly addresses state mask mandate relaxations with a new report. To paraphrase, "hey dipshits, masks work and people will die because you want taxes/votes from the Cheesecake Factory crowds"

lockdown relaxations only make sense if you keep the mask mandate. Have these people not been paying attention for the past year or so???
