Nobody likes beer the first time. I assume this is because the first sip of beer for 99% of Americans is Bud Light.

Maybe so. I just don't have a desire to try it again.

I think mine was Keystone 
If anyone drinks a tasty beer like a Sierra Nevada or Newcastle, I bet they'd like it. On the other hand, I don't really like any kind of scotch regardless of quality. I stick to beers or gin.
Does Ives pay his contributors?

So a little update for anyone interested. WSE and I were both accepted. We will each be covering a European league, MLS team and hex team. The gig is a lot more serious than I thought.

WSE gave him a few teams as preference and I told him to just assign me one. The MLS gig is going to be legit.

Bundesliga for me.

Nah, he's already got a Seattle writer. 
Suggested SKC, DCU, or Houston...but it's all up to him.
And he talked to me about Liga MX...but fingers crossed that won't happen. We talked about Serie A a bit.

I'm sure I'll need your help all of the time. Might grab your email address if that isn't a problem.

Not that bad to watch...the cleavage in the pre-game/halftime/post-game shows.
Also the football is okay, if you're just watching to see José Francisco Torres or Joe Benny Corona.

I'm sure that's what Ives wants me to watch and write for.
Torres and Corona, I mean.
That league on FSC?
