I would assume that during a Palace match, liquid is abundant.

That sure looked like a proper soccerflop

ehhh…on replay he did bang into his knee pretty well, whatever

Don’t know about at the stadium, but not in Chez Limey during lunchtime on a workday.

Dumb red card earned by Sosa.

First yellow was totally unnecessary. Second yellow was for a lazy effort at a tackle.

No complaints here. I hate that referees let off players who have just been carded because they’ve just been carded. It should be the opposite: you’ve been warned, no more chances.

As I said in my edit above, the 2nd was much more clear on the replay they eventually showed. I missed his 1st yellow.

First yellow was well-deserved. Cleaned out a Kiev player up their end near the touchline. Completely unnecessary.

I have witnessed you consuming adult beverages at lunchtime on a workday. Granted, that was a long time ago and perhaps you have been reformed.

I can’t for the life of me remember what the hell that restaurant was called. It was pretty good, though, I like those sorts of places. They never seem to stick around for very long. El Tiempo Cantina, on the other hand, will still be around after the cockroaches have disappeared.

Oh, I can be seen imbibing at breakfast when I go out to watch weekend games. Just some self-imposed discipline when working from home.

Do you remember the name of that place? I can’t imagine the building is still standing. When I say building, I mean house.

No idea. Sorry.

The Hobbit?

Good memory. I’d long forgotten about that place.

I don’t remember what I ever ordered, but it was always really good. The building of course is not still standing.

That place you and I visited down the street from there was great, too. Also not around anymore, of course.

My dad had great stories about the banking business in Houston from the mid 70’s-on. The rule was if you’re at lunch with a customer, if they’re drinking, you drink. The tongue in cheek rule was never drink vodka, only whisky or beer, that way when you get back to the office a couple of hours later anyone that smells you will know that you’re drunk and not incompetent

Three courses for $17.95. Today you can’t get a Chipotle burrito for that. Thanks, Obama.

My Chipotle burrito is always less than $17.95, its the drink that pushes me over.
