Not universally, but yeah. One of my other close friends is ethnically Vietnamese, but Slovak-by-birth, and he can go toe to toe with a large Russian man when it's time to drink shots and not even look embarrassed. The Vietnamese can throw down.
One of my closest friends is Vietnamese. In college he'd drink 10 beers, but would be drunk after the first 3. Life of the party for sure.

Pretty sure they just have their hosts broadcasting Skype/Zoom meetings with each other + figured out a way to work in commercial breaks.

I love that Freezing Cold Takes Twitter account, just randomly resurfaced this gem of a tweet:
The Top 5 Worst Pittsburgh Penguins Acquisitions of All-Time
Kingerski doesn't even mention Markus Naslund for Alex Stojanov on the worst all time Penguin acquisitions. How is that even possible?

I mean he has Iginla on there. Which is hilarious considering he produced at nearly a PPG through the regular season and playoffs. Hell, even David Perron shouldn’t be on that list. If you’re talking about the worst trades in the modern era I’d go Poni and Reaves.

The idea that somehow Ponikarovsky was the answer for Geno's wing still gives me night terrors.

I guess the bigger issue was the fact there were like legitimate heavy weights like Kovalchuk, Lupul, etc on the market and the fact there were secondary options like Stempniak also.

Yeah that's what I mean. It's not like it wasn't at least an IDEA... were there no options. But Shero always did have some dumb (to me) ideas about how to support his two star players and breadwinners.

It’s Pomp’s birthday today, everyone loves Pomp. Happy Birthday, Pomp! #PompinAintEasy
Also MM spent one of his shows this week again talking about how James Connor and Boo Boo Shoester suck. MM uber alles! What would we do without him.

He’s all over the place, can’t even keep track anymore.
Funny stuff in the Pgh media lately with Mueller and Poni dying on the “Jameis to the Steelers was a thing/should’ve happened” hill, Madden continuing to being an even more insufferably miserable SOB (he basically threatened Bill Peduto if he was the reason his hockey doesn’t come back, cries about not being able to see Aerosmith and then calls pro athletes selfish for not wanting to return lol).
Pomp and Slick Richie Walsh are able to golf today though, yay!

If you're mad about not seeing Aerosmith, Peduto has nothing to do with that. They're old, unhealthy men who probably destroyed their lungs with cigarettes and crack cocaine. If they have lawyers or a business manager, they're not doing concerts for a while, regardless of who the mayor is.
If you're going to pick on Peduto, pick on him about something that actually is his fault, like the bicycle lanes.

I think the Peduto spin is more if he’s the reason the Penguins don’t play. But pretty much all MM cares about is Liverpool, the Penguins and washed 70s/80s hair bands.

You think that's bad, he's also a huge Poison and Motley Cru fan.
Why can't people listen to Hanoi Rocks as god intended?

As I said pages and pages ago, MM is a really striking insight into the culture of a certain generation of yinzer.
Just replace Liverpool with a local high school football team.

No, the two 2nd round picks were just...I think collectively, no one liked that trade in the fan base. Hell, I remember reading constantly about trying to make him sound cool because of a keg tap thing he invested/invented.
Otherwise, another largely wasted trade by Raymundo Shero.
