  1. Am I the only one wondering what's behind this? Hoping to know more, soon. Some kind of beef between Len and Marquee? Andy's still on-air at WGN, so he has work, that's good. He was about as terse as Farmer doing PBP. That wasn't good. I'm not a big fan of Benetti, either. Too much non-baseball drivel. Stone's voice can be irritating and he talks too much. You're probably thinking that I'm a dark cloud who thinks the last Sox announcer he liked was Joe McConnell. Well, maybe, just maybe you're right. Maybe.
  2. The Obama plan was nothing but a giveaway to health care insurers for which the insurers agreed to reduce their share of the health care dollar from 23% to 21%. Still a lot of money for pushing some paper around. Somehow that got confused with Socialized Medicine and it cost the Democrats the House and Senate. Now we can't live without it. He's a little freer now that POTUS discussed firing him (and Fauci) after the election because Barr wouldn't initiate an investigation of Biden and son corruption at POTUS's request before the election. Suddenly he found a pair.
  3. Better make it known to management that you're available. You're smarter than anyone in the FO right now. Use 2021 as an evaluation year for the new GM and staff, OK, tank, and scheme to get a QB in 2022. ? (Mitch #2 !!!)
  4. This will be appealed. It's part of the plan to get the issue to the US Supreme Court. Trump said as much during the confirmation process for Justice Barrett. But even this court is not going to reverse an election won by huge margins. Is It?
  5. Hypocrisy in politics? Oh, the horror. ?
  6. Sounds like one is You Catch It and the other is It Catches You. Same difference, IMO
  7. If anyone saw the letter Murphy sent to Biden explaining why she waited until now to release the funds (bunch of bulljive) she could have saved the effort and just written "Because Trump told me to."
  8. Rudy leaking oil like my old '55 Chevy.
  9. OK, I was exaggerating, but he is crossing a line post-election loss.
  10. I had been comparing him to a Berlusconi/Mussolini hybrid for years but he's crossed the line into German fascism by now.
  11. I know that Joe has told advisers that he doesn't want to prosecute Trump after the transition, but if 4 dead at Benghazi was good for 2 years of hearings, then 250,000 dead of COVID could take us to the year 127,020 AD at the same rate. ?
  12. As I've posted before, no mask is totally effective. There's still a risk. I will get the vaccine and continue to wear one anyway until things settle down. I've golfed in a mask and played about as well as maskless. I don't wear one when I'm out for a stroll, but there's one in the pocket if I get near people.
  13. It would be similar to owning golf courses which lose money year after year, but you use the losses to offset gains from other investments and pay very little taxes. Meanwhile the land the golf courses sit on is appreciating in value every year and you wind up with a fortune when you sell. Smart.
  14. Not looking forward to the miss. You twisted my post. Looking forward to the month of weeping and moaning on this site. What the hey, it's all in fun, right?
  15. I saw that before I posted. Signaling to aides is not a public declaration. I stand by my post.
  16. This year's Machado? I'm not getting too excited yet. Looking forward to the month-long b****fest after he goes elsewhere.
  17. Biden never publicly declared that he is a one term president. At least I can't find a quote on it. If he is one, that leaves Harris against Trump or whomever. Trump may be a vulgar narcissistic boor but once you get beyond that, he is serves the Republican cause very well. (Not meant in a negative sense)
  18. The looting and $2B of property destruction were pulling in one direction. Not the BLM alone, that has merit by itself, even if some people join the two. The president's handling of COVID was pulling in the other direction. That's the story of this election. It also explains why close House races went so Republican. They weren't burdened by a quarter million dead Americans on their watch. Disagree? Who was elected president in the vote after the property destruction following the assassination of Dr. King? Makes me want to believe reports of some violence being started by agents from the other side embedding themselves with the rioters. Democrats need to focus on the real reason they lost House seats and not attribute it to a failure to connect with one voting block or another.
  19. Only if John Fox could block. I can't see how anyone not from Minnesota or Chicago could watch this exercise in boredom, unless they had a bet going on it. I'm sorta ashamed that I watched it. You're all right about Trubisky running for his life behind this OL is a better fit than Foles stumbling around until he's planted. Why do we care?
  20. Either way works for me. As others have posted, what does his contract say? The problem was getting all the pitches to come out of the same arm slot. When that was fixed, suddenly the changeup became unhittable. Give credit to whomever, Gio or Katz or the Phantom.
  21. Who knows how much the legitimate BLM protests and the illegitimate stuff that attached to them affected the election results in down ticket races. The top of the ticket was carrying the heavy burden of its pandemic debacle and that was an unclimbable mountain.
  22. That's true, the Constitution didn't say how the electors were to be chosen.
  23. An unkind view would be that the Electoral College was created to give more representation to the smaller states to encourage them to join the newly formed union, since each would have at least 3 votes regardless of size. That doesn't seem too bad. The electors who could override the popular vote by being faithless to their candidate? One view is that the Founding Fathers wanted an escape hatch in case the voting public "got it wrong" in other words, democracy was a new thing and they didn't want the people getting too much power. Seriously.
  24. Texas Lt. Gov offering $1 million reward for evidence of voter fraud. If we turn each other in that's $500K apiece! Who's game for it?
  25. Grain of salt time here: You're all aware that Trump has a long history of using lawsuits as a negotiating tool, right? So even if he pushes the system beyond where it should be pushed and winds up getting some concessions on the other end, he comes out ahead, right? Concessions? Agreements to not prosecute, agreements to not contest races that go the other way, like for Senate seats, what do I know? How many millions of loans did Deutsche Bank forgive his corporations just because of tactics such as this? I'm talking half-a-billion of bad loans from his failed business ventures. So apparently he did read Art of the Deal. He sure as hell didn't write it.
