It is probably bs, but worth a share.

Thank you.

Dallas is the anti-Sale

This is particularly awful form.

2009 QE, not 2020 QE.
-
This might be plausible if you were to ignore how much QE the fed undertook after this.
-
And I know they will start adding players soon as things like health start to get figured out. But it is also worth pointing out that the Sox use a lot of players in a normal season, and there are real possibilities of outbreaks costing the team LOTS of players at the same time.

With the way the 60 man squad is going to operate, you want to make sure you leave yourself some room to add and subtract players. If you fill it up with lots of prospects who aren't going to be in the majors this year, it doesn't leave you any room to add guys who might not be on the 40 man roster or otherwise to the roster if injuries or COVID problems tear through a roster. If you put a prospect on the 60, you can't just remove them. You have to actually make a valid roster move to remove them, which exposes them to the rest of baseball.

If your argument is that the federal government made some stupid mistakes in an effort to run cash into the economy to prevent its collapse, I don't think anyone would argue any different. Of all of the things I am pissed of at this federal government for, this is somewhere around page 672 of my list. If there was ever a time for QE, this is it. It could have been done better for sure, but getting cash into the economy quickly was the key here. The real problem was the fact that the fed had kept interest rates artificially low during the "GREATEST ECONOMY EVER" and had done nothing to empty their books of the previous QEs, nor had they done anything to return the economy to a state where the private sector was primarily responsible for growth instead of using bodies of the federal government to prop it up artificially. The fact that we were still running trillion dollar deficits on top of everything else is almost criminal. Now when we actually NEED to be running huge deficits and need real Fed intervention, the tools are limited and muted due to the waste of the last decade. This is the time to be propping up the economy. Honestly, we should be running much higher unemployment and government payment programs so we can minimize COVID exposures by having as many people as possible stay home. Now we have to tell people to go back to work and die because the federal government is impotent to protects its people financially AND medically. People have to choose one or the other.

Sure sounds like it to me.

I hate to say "good" but COVID has typicially shown with a dry cough, and not a snotty one.
-
For the record, rentals on this side of the lake are crazy expensive, if you can find them at all.

This. Take down the entire network that enabled this SOB.
-
I think I just squeeled a little bit.
-
If they were too socially distance (which with a camera seems pretty easy to do) and take proper PPEs, I don't see why they couldn't. Obviously there won't be any personal interviews, but some footage seems reasonable.
-
I am going to guess CSN will get as much of it as they are allowed to get.
-
I mean seeing as the world seems to be going out of its way to make sure that Gio never pitches for the Sox, his arm either needs to fall off, or COVID shuts baseball down again.

So did I. He is incredibly talented. I have watched him his entire career starting with when Whose Line is it Anyway came to the United States. I was still blown away.
-
Our first time we actually got to see Wayne Brady as Aaron Burr, and holy crap was he incredible. We saw 4 different ones over the time the show was here, and he blew everyone else away.

As a literal Hamilton junkie, I was kind of thinking the same thing when this was announced. I was excited to see the original broadway cast (I saw the show in Chicago 7 different times, 3 by winning the lottery, but never saw it in NYC), but thought it would kind of be the same staging as is typical of the filming of a broadway show. The previews they have ran so far give me a lot of hope that they are doing to do the show justice by utilizing tons of angles and not just the simple ones typical of these shows. I have gotten WAY more excited in the last week. The Trib's critic said it was literally the best staging of a broadway show to movie he has ever seen.
-
As roster settle out, it wouldn't shock me to see his name come up. The kid needs reps worse than pretty much anyone in this organization.
-
My company has products centered around SEC and Fed reporting, and I can confirm that most companies are a mess when it comes to big data.
-
Really happy to see him back and playing again. Even past the baseball aspect, but for his own mental health.
-
On this date in 1910- The original Comiskey Park opened. On this date in 1990- The Sox were no hit by Andy Hawkins, and won. Today- Bobby Bonilla is the highest paid player in baseball.

It debuts on Friday on the Disney plus streaming service. Anyone else seen the show live and/or looking forward to this as much as I am? The previews seem like it will do the stage version justice.
