Always bemused to see people dunking on packers stock for not providing equity or paying out a dividend, as though these things were not among the most sinister inventions of modernity

The Packers' ownership system has one job, which is to keep the team in Green Bay. It does that pretty well so far as I can tell

The Stock thing is great, smart way to generate revenue without stealing more money from potentially unwilling taxpayers.

I had a teacher repeatedly in high school who would bring in a wwii vet who had participated in d day, battle of the bulge, liberation of Buchenwald, bunch of stuff, and later became the first Jewish mayor of a bougie north shore suburb. The teacher was giving an introduction before he had arrived and mentioned how he boycotts German products to this day, “so he won’t buy BMWs or Bayer…” and a girl interrupts and exclaims “BRATS?!” and the teacher walks her off the ledge explaining brats are made in America too. It’s one of my peak midwest moments and I will think about it every time brats come up til the day I die.

As it's the off-season for our well respected franchises (and the Vikings), Minnesota brings the least to the table culinary-and-booze-wise, right?

Minnesota has given us Hamm's - which personally I love - but also Grain Belt (meh) and hot dish (respectable).

The good booze doesn't get shipped out of state, I think. North shore breweries consistently produce amazing beer, we have the best cider, and there are some great distilleries. No defending the native foods but I don't really see how it's any different from Wisconsin in that regard.

E: Cedar Gin is an amazing invention and I don't know if you can get it out of state

What I said was...
"Give me all the 3ggs_n_b4con you have"

Goff with a clean pocket, working play action and options in the middle of the field is absolutely lethal.

You get pressure in his face or take away the middle of the field and force him to the outside and he's meh.

Surly Darkness is my all time favorite imperial stout. But yeah other than that I can't think of anything I like to eat from Minnesota.

Detroit wise we just got a sweet rear end Detroit style pizza pan and the pizzas we have made in it have been killer. The best part is the pepperoni that gets all nice and crusty on the top, and, being in Wisconsin, there are a ton of yummy brick cheese options to choose from.

I loath the Bears and Cubs but holy poo poo is Chicago one of the best places for food in the world. My wife and I will head down there a couple of times a winter just to hit up some places to eat (Smoque is the poo poo, for example). Make a lot of Chicago food at home too - Italian beef, chicken vesuvio, Chicago pizza is good a couple times a year, etc... Beer wise they have some great places too - Maplewood, Half Acre, 18th Street isn't exactly Chicago but they have some really great poo poo, Revolution used to be really good although I had anything of theirs in awhile.
