    How appropriate that this topic would appear the morning after a no“No Call” on Burrow’s face mask on a 2-point conversion to win the game at the very end, as well as the missed defensive holding call on the same play. Terrible. Even the TV official, who always seems to defend the refs, said they should have been called.

    Remember that the “All-knowing” Wikipedia is not always TOTALLY correct: “The real founders, Baldwin, Bowker and Siegel set out to define their brand in 1971 with artist Terry Sheckler.They wanted the “company’s name to suggest a sense of adventure, a connection to the Northwest and a link to the seafaring tradition of the early coffee traders.”In accordance, Bowker, a writer, proposed naming the coffee shop “Pequod,” after the ship in Herman Melville‘s iconic book “Moby-Dick.”This didn’t fly with his collaborators: “Terry objected – would a cup of “Pee-kwod” appeal to anyone?” the site writes, adding that the artist decided to go a different route.Ironically this brought them back to their original literary inspiration.“While researching names of mining camps on Mt. Rainier, one of the best known landmarks near Seattle, Terry came across ‘Starbo,’ which eventually led the team back to where they’d started,” they wrote. “In ‘Moby-Dick,’ the name of the first mate on the Pequod was, you guessed it, Starbuck. A brand was born.”

    The First Mate was named Starbuck, no “S” on the end. My bad.

    True story. When Starbucks was starting it was going to be named “Pequods”, the ship in Moby Dick. After test marketing and focus groups they determined that people were not that excited to order a cup of coffee named Pee-Quod. Itstead the name that tested MUCH better was Starbucks, as Starbucks was the First Mate on the ship, Pequod. The owner/founder was a huge Moby Dick fan, BTW.
