    OT. City Steam Closing

    I lived in the Richardson apartments above Brown Thompson's right out of college in the late eighties. They had a pretty good happy hour spread that I think was my dinner every night the first year. I stopped going to City Steam when they got rid of the cheddar chicken sandwhich, a BT staple...

    Download the metro north app and you can see schudules and buy tickets using your phone, when you select your destinations it gives you the train times. I made the trip for work this week. Depending on the train it is about 2 hours from New Haven. Peak is about $24 one way, nonpeak is about...

    Champions DNA Tshirt

    Last year someone very quickly created an Arrogant and Spoiled TShirt after the Cooley press conference. I think part of the proceeds went to an NIL fund. Is anybody doing the same thing with Huley's Championship DNA quote?

    Yeah, the New Yorker is usually my go to for MSG games, it is $200 for Monday night 12/4 but jumps up over $500 for the 5th and 6th. It can't be just the game, something else must be going on in the City

    NYC Hotel for Jimmy V Classic

    Anybody find some decent hotel rates in NYC for the NC game on December 5th? There must be something else going on as all the hotels jump up in price over $500 on the 5th and 6th. I used to like training it back to Bridgeport and staying at the Holiday Inn, but that is no longer an option as...

    Holy Hell I forgot what it was like getting out of a large crowd game

    Sheesh, I forgot what it was like getting out ot a game with 20k+ but really it was like bumper cars out there. I was in the east end of the blue lot and used to have a nice route out but couldn't do that tonight. Lots of agressive moves by people, it was almos like bumper cars. Just when I...

    Spring Showcase. Saturday, April 22 @ Morrone Stadium @1:30p (Streamed on UConn+)

    I thank UConn for doing this but here is a couple or take aways. I miss the old full game scrimmages, but if they are going to do this explain it more than just on the video board, what exactly are these drills? I may be old but the loud rap music the entire time was annoying and wish there...

    Haven't worn this in a while.

    Was it the Dream Season when you made a t-shirt from the iron on patches the Courant was giving away? What ever happened to that shirt?

    UConn vs Miami Final Four

    We need to avenge one of our worst losses when they beat us back I think in 2003 when they stole an inbound pass to win the game when we clearly had the game one. A loss that still stings.

    Food suggestions before XL Center game

    I work downtown Hartford. Most of the Insurance companies are still hybrid remote, workers only have to come in 2 or 3 days a week. Some days my garage is empty, sometimes I have a tough time finding a spot.

    Food suggestions before XL Center game

    Yes they do, it is small about a dozen or so tables, plus a standing counter. You can order ahead from their website or the Slice app as you are parking and it will be ready when you get there.

    Food suggestions before XL Center game

    Pietro's Pizza on Main Street, near the Old G Fox. Order ahead so your food is ready when you get there and they serve beer. They make a killer chicken parm. Four Dad's is great but it will be mobbed.

    Best place to get Bowl game tickets???

    I went through the Uconn site and the ticket selection of seats left is not that great, but if I just go through the Bowl site there are plenty of great seats. How can that be? I guess I will call the ticket office in the morning.

    Best golf course in each state

    My wife is a writer, there are a lot of desperate writers out there. There are message boards with specs for articles and they go to the lowest bidder to write, no qualifications needed. Too many sites looking for cheap content.
