2017 Democratic Thread
There was a concern after 2016 that the run on state legislatures/governorships led possibility of consitutional change open seeing as they were nearly at 75% control. Fortunately that is now pared back.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Nov 7, 2017 -> 09:49 AM) There seems to be plenty of reasons out there. I’m modifying how I don’t know why I’m rooting for the bucks even with Kidd as coach.

White Sox unlikely to chase big free agents
If there is a plan that I like including FAs this year, it's spending to get top BP arms now and then spending big on the class next year. In the BP arms case, truly feel we could get rid of them if needed even if they are lesser performing.

Greg Monroe and a late first. Great deal for Bucks. I don't know why, I hate jason kidd as a man, but I'm kinda happy for the bucks.

QUOTE (whitesoxfan99 @ Nov 7, 2017 -> 09:26 AM) Kris Dunn has been absolutely dreadful so far. I'm not seeing anything competent out of him. Defensively he is very competent.

Technology catch-all thread
Is there a reason skype on the mobile phone doesn't work? I didn't think that required wifi. There are plenty of programs, like wechat, that offer services but require the other parties she wants to talk to to also sign up.

The Sexual Assault problem
QUOTE (JenksIsMyHero @ Nov 7, 2017 -> 07:42 AM) I really, really hope he gets jail time. And that someone can successfully sue him and he loses everything. Oh, and that Hollywood implodes because of the garbage human beings running it. Let’s hope the Manhattan DA gets voted out then today

Trade avi in the offseason?
It was easy to believe. We were only bad at drafting because we always drafted so low. Now with a top 10 pick, of course we drafted a hall of famer. Duh!

QUOTE (Eminor3rd @ Nov 6, 2017 -> 02:45 PM) Oh, man, tell me I'm not the only one that remembers that post. I think it was in the thread where SI or ESPN or someone posted their all-next-decade team in 2009. We were all projecting what we thought peak Beckham was going to look like, and someone posted in non-green font that he/she thought "like Jeter but better." Sigh. He was so awesome that first july / august he came up. Seemed like everything was to the gap.

Your Off Season Plan
QUOTE (OmarComing25 @ Nov 6, 2017 -> 01:09 PM) I lean the other way, I'm not sure why some people seem to think the Dodgers would just give away one of the best catchers in the game. Same. We keep thinking the dodgers will start caring about money, and they just...don't.

I hope you guys are right. It was around this time last year that our offense looked inexplicably decent despite Matt Barkley starting. But we've been throttled out of the bye week recently.

Another mass shooting, church in Texas
QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Nov 6, 2017 -> 12:03 PM) I am struggling to think of a single scenario that would get Congress to finally act. The only one I could come up with is a gunman or two shot up and killed most of Congress on live TV while they were in session. That might not even do it. They would change security rules for entering congress.
