I watched a soccer match yesterday morning with my friend Mark at the DNVR Bar in Denver and then had a late lunch with my friend Stuart at the Old Chicago Pizza and Taproom in Lakewood. Mark and I met up with the Leeds United Colorado Supporters at DNVR to watch a game between Leeds United and Derby, which Leeds won by a score of 1-0. This group attracts a lot of fans and are quite a welcoming group. Leeds is currently in first place in the Championship League standings, and if they keep playing as well as they are now, will head back to the Premier League, England's top soccer division, next year. The photograph on the left is of Mark, on the right, and Bo, the head of the group, on the left, taken during halftime. And as you can see, everyone was in good spirits thanks to the team's recent success.
That afternoon, I had lunch with my friend Stuart, seen in the photograph on the right, at the Old Chicago in Lakewood, the suburb just to the west of Denver, where most of the conversation centered around another 4 years of Donald Trump. Stuart seemed quite apprehensive about the prospect, while I expressed the hope that Congress and the Supreme Court will assert their constitutional roles and keep Trump from exercising questionable policies, such as invading Canada or putting 20 million illegal migrants in camps with the goal of deporting them. Surely the adults in the room will take charge in those situations, right? Right? Right?
