From the same article, they were using one of the Obama's bathrooms until someone in the Trump group trashed it so badly that Obama's security detail said no more.

$70 million on Brock Osweiler. Followed by Tom Savage starting over Watson.

Not exactly, but I can't see Watson overcome the staff in Houston and think "well the Bears are so much worse that they're clearly going to destroy him."

Let's just say that the staff in Houston over that time...has not particularly impressed.

I'd say that the difference between the Bears at the back of the playoffs and the Bears at the front is largely QB related. I'd also say that they have made enough good decisions to keep them out of the same mess as the Jets.

Key point there is "need to". Teams go through major playoff droughts all the time, but it's not because of 1 years' bad decisions. One year of crap you can overcome the next year with good moves. If you go through a 5-10 year playoff drought in the NFL, it's because you're making mistakes again and again and again - that is a fair description of Cleveland, of the AFC East outside of New England, and so on.

That's just not how the NFL works. Most teams in the NFL, even ones in bad places for cap and talent, don't need to do a "Cleveland Browns" to get back. Last year Miami tore literally everything down, traded everyone. They were 1 game away from the playoffs this year, and they're probably still hoping they have a long-term answer at QB even if that guy had a rough year.

If the latter is the case, that should be the only focus. We're the reality-based community, we can't bring photos from a previous year into the discussion of whether or not she conspired to attack that building. I can judge her to be a terrible human being based on previous photos, but not all terrible human beings attacked the US Capitol building.

I think y’all have convinced me that with COVID classic, if you have 3 to 5 students in a room and you have most people masked, your district is going to avoid most big infection events. However, now that the marketing geniuses have come up with New COVID, we aren’t sure those rules hold any more. There were hints that the B117 variant was spreading much more easily amongst British youth before their country entered a lockdown, and that variant is absolutely loose in the Us and spreading. If it is more easily transmitted and producing more symptoms among the youth, this could be a very different semester from the fall.

Ironically, they’ve done so much criming that it has probably raised the bar on what it takes to get a consensus in favor of impeachment. Biden, want to declassify a bunch of stuff for the Russian foreign minister in exchange for tens of millions of dollars? We decided that was cool all the way back in ‘17.

I believe the ones where she is posing with people making those signs turned out to have been taken last fall?

I’m sure this was dealt with somewhere else, but how exactly is $50 million the largest contract in history for a reliever when Chapman signed originally for 5/$86 with an opt out?

Now. We know without any doubt that there is money sitting on the sidelines waiting for more clarity, whether that's about fans being allowed in the stands or the complete overthrow of the US government. The Yankees, Red Sox haven't done a thing yet. There is a level of cheapness where you must expect they will act. Torotno hasn't yet done the big deal everyone expects. Houston may well not sit idly by and let their team take a step back. It is unlikely that all the free agents remaining will get substantially cheaper than they are right now. They may get a little cheaper, but there is also a risk of the price going up. Find a pitcher asking for a reasonable contract and get that dealt with.

No, I act like they're willing to move him in a way they wouldn't be if they thought he was going to hit .320 this year with a high OBP and excellent defense. Moving him creates a hole where they will have to spend money to fill it - they wouldn't think of that unless they were certain that it makes this team better. If Madrigal could be a 3 win player this year, which he would be at the very least if his defense was strong and he hit .320, moving him and Heuer for Burnes (who is projected as a 2.7 win pitcher by Steamer) would have a decent shot of making the team worse.

In 2019, their offense was basically league average. I think its hard to look at 2020 since Yelich wasn't himself last year. Is their offense notably worse than 2019?

If he had played good defense since he was drafted, this conversation might not be happening. The White Sox can't afford for him to take years to turn into a good defender.

The answer to this is one I'm waiting on also. As soon as my group is allowed, I have to contact my Dr. and ask what to do. I'm on medication that will suppress my immune system, so the answer may be wait a few weeks for testing to be done on groups like me, it may be to skip a dose of that medication for each vaccine dose and schedule injections around that, or it may be "Get your A** there as soon as you can because you're one of the ones this could kill". We're supposed to be getting updates on this in January.

My goodness how bad are you thinking Leary will be at DH? Adam LaRoche in 2015 was -1.2 fWAR mostly at DH. You’re talking Adam Dunn in 2011 bad!

There’s a lot more to the 25th thinking. It was passed in the middle of the Cold War, where you also had to be concerned that a president might be too aggressive or not aggressive enough with a nuclear war. If Russia were to be launching and the president hesitated, the 25th gives a way to overrule him. That is intentional, so that there’s a check on behavior that the cabinet judges is a threat to the US.

Regardless of whether Cheney and co started that war for revenge, because they believed it was the best thing for the US, or that it would make them richer...I'm pretty sure that inciting a mob to head to Congress and try to take hostages, kill Americans, and overthrow the government still actually does win.
