  1. Edit: removed after I saw Blandy’s post. My bad.
  2. At the risk of going too far off topic (sorry mods), I’m a recovering alcoholic and wouldn’t bat an eye if Villa had a beer sponsor on their shirt. The club sells alcohol at VP, which is a much more real “threat” to my sobriety than words plastered on a shirt. I probably wouldn’t buy a shirt with a beer sponsor for personal reasons. However, if I ever relapsed I surely wouldn’t blame it on the fact that my football club has “Heineken” or whatever on their chests.
  3. Change plans as in scrap the badge and start over? I hope so, although I can’t imagine there’s time for that.

    Do you read?

    Mrs MNVillan and I named our dog Dante because of our adoration for the Divine Comedy
  5. Came here to say this. I plan on staying sober for a 24 hour period every day for the rest of my life. God willing, I’ll never take a sip again.
  6. Sorry to hear. I have also been there many times.
  7. I don’t know how many MORE people will vote for Trump, but FEWER people will vote for Biden. Even if those votes don’t go towards Trump, low voter turnout could make the race closer.
  8. r/stopdrinking on Reddit has been a huge help for me when I quit drinking

    Hang in there. I remember feeling similarly when in the depths of my alcoholism. I found a way out and feel so much better now. Keep going to meetings and looking for a way out - you’ll find it
  10. Does anyone have experience with Paper Mario? Thinking about finding a copy of Origami King. Have played Odyssey and Luigi’s Mansion 3 recently, loved them both.
  11. For me to consider it a big upgrade in terms of prestige, we would need to become one of these: - Nike Elite team, joining Chelsea, Spurs, Barcelona, Liverpool, PSG, Inter Milan, Athletico Madrid, RB Leipzig, and Galatasaray (Taken from Footy Headlines) - Adidas Elite team, joining Arsenal, Bayern, Juventus, Real Madrid, Manchester United, and now Newcastle (Taken from Footy Headlines) - Puma top team, joining Manchester City, Borussia Dortmund, AC Milan, Olympique Marseille, and Palmeiras (Taken from Puma’s official site) They’re the groups from those 3 mega brands that the companies really put their new tech and high-end resources into (whether or not that produces good kits or designs is up for debate). The marketable, elite clubs are where all the money is, and joining that group is how we take the next step in appealing to the exploding US and Asian markets. Do we have the brand to join those clubs? Who knows. I’m excited we’re ditching Castore no matter what, but imo for the next Kit deal to be considered a large step forward we need to join one of these groups. Being the big club of a smaller company (like we were with Castore) doesn’t have the impact we’d like.
  12. I can absolutely relate to this. Prior to multiple vacations I have thought “why even bother, it’s easier to stay at home, can’t wait for it to be done with.” For me, once I am on the actual trip, I typically enjoy myself. Hoping the same for you!
  13. Thanks to all who chimed in here, my best wishes for you all. Be kind to yourselves.
  14. We’ll be the circle lion badge at the top of the table, they’ll be the one mid-to-lower table. Easy enough to tell apart.
