    Whither Caleb Wiley and Kevin Paredes?

    Steep Couloirs and Flatspin 360s - Skiing and Boarding 22-23

    Just arrived at a rental house in Sandy, UT for an annual guys trip centered on Alta/Snowbird. This seems good. View: https://twitter.com/wasatchsnow/status/1641233287665553408?s=46&t=_QTQCNTBLxzfk7Hxd4u6OQ Though I’ve heard that 210 is closing often this year given the avy danger, which...

    Steep Couloirs and Flatspin 360s - Skiing and Boarding 22-23

    worth noting that the original developer of Revy went bankrupt and the place was on life support for a bit until new financing/ownership stabilized the situation. There is definitely an elaborate master plan with lifts contemplated on both sides of the currently developed terrain but I suspect...

    Thanks. This all tracks. I’ve struggled to find anything in town for less than $300/night once fees are added in, which gets a bit prohibitive to do frequently.

    Yup. That Canaan Valley is where it’s at in that region. Of the people I know who have frequented Whitegrass, it seems like the type of place you’d find a touring partner pretty easily. It’s a substantial self-selection filter to even go there.

    @GoJeff - where do you stay when you're up there? Looking for recos on any cheap accommodations in that area. We burn a big portion of our points to stay at the Westin for 5-6 days right before XMas each year, but I'm looking for a more sustainable model for weekend jaunts.

    Just checking into the thread for the year, and I suspect this could be very old news for you, but if you're in MASH (mid-atlantic ski hell) and have a touring rig, Whitegrass in the Canaan Valley is your place.

    USMNT: Hold My Beer

    Scuffed truly is the SOSH of USMNT discussion.

    2021 Gold Cup: CONCACAF AF

    This was really well done and I agree with pretty much all of it. The most troubling thing about Berhalter’s continued dabbling with marginal talent possessing zero upside is that the clock is ticking. There are precious few opportunities to work in new candidates for the 6 or 8 before Qatar...

    2021 Gold Cup: CONCACAF AF

    So we should be seeing the other shoe to drop later today re: who comes off the roster for Cowell.

    USMNT: Hold My Beer

    Agree. Had a sort of "umpires overturning the Bellhorn non HR call and the Slappy McBluelips Slap in Game 6 of the 2004 ALCS" vibe to it.

    Shit. One more streaming platform I need to pay for.

    USMNT: Hold My Beer

    But man alive, that isn’t the level we need to be facing in order to prep for the harder tests to come. I think we’ll come to find that the Nations League, and its elimination of a large % of opportunities to play strong non-CONCACAF sides in friendlies, will be the single biggest headwind to...

    USMNT: Hold My Beer

    Agree with all of this. Wouldn’t qualifying for the AFCON Cup be an issue for the March window? It’s only 1 fixture per National team this window so maybe they can make that work based on schedules. USMNT would be a good warm up test for teams with games on 3/30 like Cameroon, Morocco or...

    Americans Abroad, 2020-21: The Kids Are Alright

    TB will know better, but I think that's right. I guess reinvesting the $$ into a DP would be the most visible way to spend that money, so maybe my point above is moot. Still, I would submit that until there is pressure from the fan base/media based on seeing how other clubs successfully...
