  1. Woah. So Tacy's Put up or Shut up was dreamed up to see what kinda shots I can pull? LOL! I mean Nico, you mention my name, then you go right into "so we were talking about this, and we wanted to see if these people can actually back it up in the cup..."

  7. Yo, PF contributors - I don't want to be a nag, but is this blog dead except for the podcasts? I'd love to hear random thoughts from the bloggers again... all of them, including that whacky Canadian who has never done a blog entry, AFAIK.
