I can't access paper but I wonder how many of the samples they were sent contained it, and if it was part of a teams outbreak.

WTF It's Seriously &^$%^ Cold Outside
Theres a lot of stuff constantly to do. Texas isn't the first state to have the event happen that they knew could happen and cause damage. Chicago has a pretty awesome water management system, but it likely doesn't invest in things like TARP (deep tunnel) without a hundred years of constant waste water battles. And it was billions and it's not even clear it fixes the problem. Hard to get buy-in for that stuff unless you have a "great chicago flood". This situation is really bad and scary for certain for many families and those with medical device needs. But Texas will likely adjust. They may not even overhaul, they may just bring some more safeguards and generally keep it the same. Chicago had a heatwave and hundreds died, and their mayor called it fake news. Puerto Ricos grid was destroyed in a hurricane and their island without power. I don't recall dunking being the response that helped. Not everything needs to be kinder for the fire for the ongoing exhausting ideological battles.

MLB 2020-21 off season catch all
so seems like a lot of the fringe guys ended up with pretty decent major league deals as teams fret about pitchers not being able to log full seasons. The white sox pretty explicitly did not plan for this concern so will be interesting to see how it plays out.

2020 NBA Regular Season Thread
Good question but not sure, I kinda thought the bottom 14 teams were locks for lotto regardless so it didn't create bad incentives

2020 NBA Regular Season Thread
I think bulls keeping a lotto pick while making the play-in tourney is my sweet spot tbh. But they should trade thad and go after lonzo.

I wasn't sure which way it would go since regular checkups were down so much. A bit impressed it was in line.

2020 NBA Regular Season Thread
Couldn't watch game last night but that step back 3 was dope. Heat and Hawks are the two teams underneath bulls, will be interesting to see what happens. Hawks may just continue to be bad but heat should start turning corner. Man the cavs were really an early season mirage with that defense.

February man. Always absolutely brutal. It's a season in itself. Nov-Jan = Winter. Mar-May = Spring Feb is just shit.

2021 MLB Draft Thread
what's with the large variations in his ranking? Just gonna be the case for a lot of guys this year with scouting being just as all over the place, or is it hit tool?

Awesome to see! Would love to hear when everyone starts getting shots! Sounds like yours are being organized through your work?

COVID-19/Coronavirus thread
man it's really humming now. Don't forget to check your GPs too, ours finally got some shots last week. I'm hoping when it "opens" on the 25th they will take care of some of the at-risk group even if the county isn't.

- Keith Law's Top 100, 2 White Sox make the list
The Law write-up on the sox was full of excellent info today. I'm sorry to the large group that can only handle counting top 100 rankings and will miss out learning about our system.- Keith Law's Top 100, 2 White Sox make the list
Can you show me the evaluator that nailed Jose Ramirez please?- Bears Draft Needs
Well definitely trying to seek out some diff guys each time, esp wr and cb just to get familiar with them.- Bears Draft Needs
I'm still enjoying this. Prior to our mack trade, it did seem like bears were always one pick past the fulcrum where there were more trades to be had. But this year 20 seems like a realistic position where teams at the top of 2nd and late first tend to jump. Here is one with lots of trading back. (32) Jalen Mayfield RT/G UMICH (62) Landon Dickerson C/G ALa (64) Eric Stokes CB GA (83) Tylan Wallace WR OKSt (101) Dayo Odayingo EDGE Vanderbilt (140) Adetokunbo Ogundeji DT ND (205) Jonathan Adams Jr WR Ark St (219) Sam Ehlinger QB TX (224) Noah Gray TE Duke I do kinda like it. Great supporting cast for uh, nick foles.- Market/Financial Thread
