2016 Democratic Thread
Right, but, again that's where I kind of think Trump has to be the lesser of their evils. Especially when there's a higher likelihood that he completely flips script in GE and starts prescribing more moderate policies.

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Feb 24, 2016 -> 02:00 PM) He's just taken the subtext and made it text. I think there is some difference though, how many white supremacist and neo-nazi organizations were openly and proudly endorsing past GOP candidates? Bernie has some leftist supporters that see things almost exclusively through a class lens and tend to discount racial or gender struggles, claiming it's all really a part of class warfare. (brain: ugh, you know I want to say all of them) Answer: "David Duke?" Curious who you guys prefer. Obviously Rubio is kind of just a run of the mill candidate, likely sticks to government norms. But the fact is he's running on a foreign policy platform and that's scary to me.

Is there a anti-mexican, anti-muslim position that he's made that has not been matched by Rubio/Cruz? Rubio seems to get this pass as most reasonable when he has tacitly or explicitly backed a lot of the same rhetoric.

Well, if it makes you feel worse I've begun to feel like Trump is the best case scenario out of the right's current trio of leading candidates.

Question: did the sox try to model Steverson's job after how Cooper ran the pitching instruction organization wide? or did they start using Cooper to run a standard for pitching instruction organization wide around the same time?

Worldwide draft really will be a benefit in that respect.

Dave Cameron - Grading the Offseason
Yeah his Braves ranking was a headscratcher. You can't spend the whole article acknowledging the weak market for position players and then basically dock them for a lower return than expected for their SS, all the while getting the steal of the winter.

Technology catch-all thread
No, they weren't asked to make it easier. They were asked to help allow the FBI gain access to the data in this specific phone. The court order does not ask they make it easier on all other phones that they produce. What happens if they need access to a phone again? Why, they do what they just did, get a court order to do this and if the court deems it narrow and acceptable, provide the necessary resources to help with the law. None of this compliance is new. There is ample, ample precedent here.

I blame them for saying no. They are full of crap. Any time you see a silicon valley CEO grandstanding about privacy it's b.s. This is a remarkably narrow court order, I don't believe for a second that they could open up this specific phone. Slippery slope arguments are terrible.

What side were you on? lol I just blew through Deja Entendu and Your+Favorite+Weapon and now I am in the middle of The Devil and God are Raging Inside of me. Each album is so different, and so awesome in their differences. "Sic Transit....Glory fades" still gets me pumped up I was always on Brand New's side, but last year was sad, it was clearly a marketing stunt to generate interest in their new albums.

Can we take one glimmer of hope? He seemed to follow instructions to pull the ball for 2 weeks and hit 4-5 home runs. He just doesn't seem like a coachable player.
