re: Do you know why a hamburger is called a hamburger?

Invented by the Earl of Hamburger.
Sort of. The Earl of Hamburger invented hamburger steak (basically ground beef). Louie's Lunch in New Haven, CT is credited as the first place to put the ground beef patty between two pieces of bread to create what we now call a hamburger today.
quote:
According to the Library of Congress, “Louis’ Lunch in New Haven, Connecticut, is recognized as the birthplace of the hamburger sandwich.
In 1900, a hurried customer asked Louis Lassen for something he could eat on the go. Thinking fast, Louis placed his own blend of ground steak trimmings between two slices of toasted bread — creating the very first hamburger sandwich.”

If it is worth $160k and you are going to sell it for $35k, you zhould look at an auction houze. Something like Goldin or zomething.

re: Grill Talk: Can some of you share your recent experiences buying grills?

I had a monument, it lasted 2 years before the base completely rusted and collapsed. It was great otherwise.

Weber durability sucks, especially in salt air. Napoleon makes a superior gas grill. I have a Rogue Pro and love it after the first few months. The base is much sturdier than the Webers I have had.

Athleticism doesnt matter, meanwhile France is on the best run in their history over the last decade and coincidentally their team has gone from all pasty baguette eaters to entirely african immigrants.
re: Why do white American athletes not seem up to par compared to European counterparts?
Posted by Tiger in NY on 7/9/26 at 3:19 am to PrimeTime Money
The best white American athletes are playing football and baseball. Guys like George Kittle, Dylan Ctrews, and Bobby Witt Jr are just as good athletically as any white Euro.

I wish Fox would have found a graphic to display the salaries of the Americans. I think young kids seeing that Tillman and Mckennie make almost $6 million a year would help kids realize that there is a path in soccer.

re: Dan Wetzel blames "Travel Ball" for the lack of development of US Soccer
Posted by Tiger in NY on 7/8/26 at 11:39 am to real turf fan
He is mostly right.
Like baseball, the focus is on winning 13 "World Series" per year, rather than focusing on drilling and individual skill development.

Our best athletes arent going to play soccer because they wont get extremely wealthy playing soccer.

Wro g.
Top soccer players make top NFL qb money, and there are about 1000 soccer players in the world making over $1 million per year.
The top ~250 soccer players all make over $10 million per year.

But at every level of soccer I've watched or participated usually the best players were those who understand the game and processed what was happening better/faster than anyone else
Jesus Christ
Lol, and what happened when those same guys that were better at processing things were also better athletes. These numbnuts seem to think these 2 things have to be mutually exclusive.

If soccer was the main sport, we’d be producing guys who are both elite athletically in every way that makes up a great sportsman, while also being elite in the skills department. In every position on the field.
2. People mostly just talk about NFL and NBA players. Think of all of the thousands and thousands of very athletic and skilled players who may have made fantastic soccer players but either never made it to the NBA or NFL or washed out quickly because they were only 5’10” and 180 lbs. So many players out there never grew into the size required to play in the NFL or NBA yet would be been the perfect size for soccer.
Exactly this. Put every young baseball, football, and basketball athlete into a soccer bucket and see who rises to the top. The argument against is completely ludacris.

They are. They have no idea what America really is and what the makeup of our people are. They are fed lies and believe that we are all fat dumb rednecks.

Opinions, by their very nature, cannot be objective. They are always subjective, and the counter to them is as well.
