Without knowing what Regeneron is or what they do, it seems weird that their CEO makes more than Wal-Mart's with not even 1% as many employees. Or maybe CEO pay just isn't supposed to make sense.

New campuses opening soon: The University of Michigan at Daytona Beach, The Ohio State University at Myrtle Beach, Michigan State University at Destin.

Wal-Mart's CEO makes $26M or so. The company has 1.2 million US employees. If the CEO cuts his pay to $2M, that gives every employee in the company an extra $20 per year. It might seem like a nice gesture and might make the news, but the extra $20 per year isn't going to make a difference for employees. Now, that's just one example and there very well could be companies where the CEO salary could be cut enough to make a significant difference in the lives of employees, but you need to remember the context of the number of employees.

I think this applies to three of the five candidates.

Choke level: '69 Cubs

Ordonez may be the best Sox player ever to wear #30, but give the way he left, he'll never be my favorite Sox player ever to wear #30.

First day after Christmas Break then. Announce it in advance to give parents time to plan for the closure.

If you're talking about teachers or other public employees, I don't like strikes. At least not in the middle of the school year when you are inconveniencing thousands of parents who aren't to blame for your plight. As for employees of a private company, I say do what you think is best. Just don't whine when there are layoffs or your company moves.

If you're arguing over whether Petricka or Jennings is your worst reliever then you have a pretty good bullpen.

This is dumb. Put Saladino at 2B and Lawrie at DH. Edit: Nevermind. Saw that Saladino is already in the lineup for Rollins.

1 Eaton 2 Abreu 3 Frazier That's what it should be. Get your three best hitters hitting 1-3.

Couldn't have happened to a nicer family.

Watched a few of them today. The hour long 'making of' feature is fantastic. There is also one about John Williams that was good, and the one about the light sabre battle in the snow forest was good. Had no idea that was a set and not on location.

Doesn't matter what it says, it's not an official game thread if it isn't created on the day of the game. There are rules.

It's not a game thread for today if it was created yesterday.

Schwarber playing out of position was absolutely a factor in his injury. The Cubs took a risk by playing him there and now they (and especially him) are paying the price. Same thing with Avi. He's not really an outfielder and is risking getting hurt out there. Of course, it's not nearly the same loss to the team if it happens.

Bill can be both accurate in what he was saying and really dumb to have said it. The two are not mutually exclusive.

Speith apparently playing a different course than everybody else.

Opening weekend ND @ Texas moved from Saturday to Sunday night.

Does that "delete" feature work only for a single game, or could it be used for a longer stretch of games, like 107 years worth?

My free week of MLBEI ends Sunday and I've already missed 3 games due to ungodly start times. Don't want to miss out on another!

3 out of 4 on the road is hard even against the worst teams.

There isn't. Danks, at his best, is going to be the 4th best starter on the team and no 4th starter is worth a QO.

The Bothans reference was ROTJ, the second Death Star.
