If you end up with 3 guys to rotate starting in the 4-5 hole, that's fine, but under no circumstances should the Sox be reducing the number of starts the top 3 make.

In Indiana kids do not miss school for athletic events in any sport. At most, they would get out 1-2 hours early to travel to a distant event.

As a parent I'm not sure I'd want my kid to have a teacher that misses 40+ days per year.

It's settled then. Sox are guaranteed to finish 3rd.

Yeah, there are definitely 28 franchises that would trade places with the Kings. Maybe even 29, at least from December-February.

The Kings certainly aren't dissatisfied with their last 6 seasons, but 6 playoff appearances, 14 series wins and 3 cups is still better than 5 playoff appearances, 10 series wins and 2 cups.

That's exactly why the Sox ownership sucks. They charge so much for burgers, it drives the fans away, and then they don't have money to spend on players. If they lowered the price of burgers, they'd instantly become a 100 win team.

Yeah, I'm similar to you. Don't raise personal income taxes for anybody under $500K or so, but fix the corporate tax code.

I'm not condoning what he did but 1) it was 20 years ago and 2) the victim has received her day in court (even if it was civil and not criminal).

It doesn't matter how he responds to it. He's already been painted as too far left by the far right, and if he is the nominee (which I still think is almost impossible) he is going to have to find somebody farther right (but not insane like Palin) to be on the ticket.

If I understand this correctly, it's not Peyton's victim who filed this lawsuit. Her matters were settled years ago. Other similar victims are bringing this suit as a Title IX violation by the university. Probably bringing up Peyton as a tactic to get a bigger settlement out of UT.

It got pretty extensive discussion on Mike&Mike this morning.

Do you need the benefits from your wife's job? If not, two part-time jobs might be an option. I know places around here that pay their part-time people 15-25% more/hour than their full time people because they don't have to give benefits, and I know people who work two 20/hour week jobs and make more than they would if they had one full-time job.

There are some who won't. Kasich supported the Medicaid expansion and that makes him more or less equivalent to a Democrat to some on the far, far right. It only takes a few thousand in Florida or North Carolina to stay home on election day to swing the election. Kasich certainly wouldn't take Cruz, but he would need to take somebody that Cruz supporters would like.

You think there's any chance Kasich chooses Carson as a running mate? Those must be some pretty good drugs getting around there in China.

The Republican base is not very bright.

If by some miracle Kasich does get the nomination, he can't pick another moderate governor as his running mate. He would need somebody to help keep the far right from staying home on Election Day.

2008 Chuck Schumer: We must oppose any Bush SC nominee 2016 Chuck Schumer: The Republicans are horrible for saying that they should oppose any Obama SC nominee Go f*** yourself, Chuck.

They made serious bids on both Gordon and Cespedes. Clearly not too stubborn to address it. Just haven't yet addressed it successfully.

Yeah, like he's bright enough to pull that off . . .

It's more player-friendly than the old system.
