    Best candy ever

    Jelly Belly. i'll take pretty much any flavor, but peach is best. Otherwise, it's Peanut M&Ms or anything Reese's.

    Greatest TV actors

    Surprised to see no love for Peter Krause. Sports Night, Six Feet Under, Dirty Sexy Money -- that's pretty stout. Staying with Sports Night, Felicity Huffman's done pretty damn well.

    Red Hook

    Deschutes is probably the best chance you'd have in West Texas (but as someone who lived on the West Texas border, I can tell you there's still virtually no chance). Mirror Pond Pale Ale is their most well-known brew, and a damn fine one. But they make several other good ones. Bridgeport's IPA...

    Red Hook

    Grew up less than a half-hour from the Red Hook brewery. Needless to say, I was pretty damn excited when the liquor store down the street from my in bum**** Midwest started carrying Red Hook. It's great, great beer. The Long Hammer is a pretty good IPA, but I still don't think it holds up to...

    Jim Norton

    O&A still have their moments, but are letting their bitterness take over at times. Still, when they're on, it makes for great listening. That said, Ron and Fez are definitely funnier, and Ron might be the funniest/quickest guy on radio today. As for lil' Jimmy Norton, I couldn't agree more...

    Movie scenes that make you cry

    Some of the ones that have been mentioned, particularly Field of Dreams. Also, The Rookie, when Jim Morris (Dennis Quaid) calls home to tell his son that he's been called up to the big leagues. Every single time.

    Possibly the official French Open Thread...

    I was thrilled when Ivanovic broke Henin to start the match. The rest of it? Eh, not so much. Anyway, who thinks Roger's going to win this? I'm really hoping he does -- until another stud American or two come along, a Federer Grand Slam would be about the only thing to keep men's tennis on the...

    Designer / Copy Editor - Fort Collins Coloradoan

    Second and third what's been said here. It's a great, great town, and is an easy drive from Denver. That said, the paper is disappointing, at best. Decent writing at times, mixed with awful, cramped design. And I really haven't heard anything good about the management there. Down the road...

    Sports Editor in Rochelle, Ill.

    Rochelle, Rochelle... I hear whoever takes this job will be asked to detail a young woman's erotic journey, from Milan to Minsk.

    Experience vs. college degree

    I don't have a degree, and there are certainly times where I regret it. I've been fortunate to get some decent chances in this business, and have a job that I truly enjoy, but I think the route there would have been a bit easier with that piece of paper. I've seen a lot of people say that a...

    Running World Series of Poker Thread

    Actually, the 50K HORSE event is going to draw major TV play, starting this year. ESPN will show six hourts worth of HORSE coverage this year. Makes sense, really -- if the final table this year has anywhere near the names of last year, it will draw viewers. Even better, the final table of that...

    Top 25 vote...small changes...

    Re: Unofficial top 25 vote... won't vote til 11 am eastern... Why? Should Rutgers go undefeated, it would have two great wins (vs. then-No. 2 Louisville, and at WVU, which will probably be No. 7 or 8 at the time). Should Ohio State go undefeated, it would have two great wins (then-No. 2 Texas...
