Your Offseason Plan
I honestly think the offense would be fine if Eloy is who we think he is, Moncada makes any sort of jump and other production is similar or improves a bit. The starting pitching is the issue. Every person in our rotation are such wildcards.

Explosive Devices Sent to Clintons, Soros and Obama
You don't see that as a problem though? The younger generation including me don't really want to have to read newspapers or articles online. There aren't a lot of people that are seeking out those publications to read articles unless they see a catchy headline on Twitter/Facebook. Short videos/TV are where it is at if you actually want most of the younger generation to learn about what is going on in the country/world.

I don't remember it being nearly this bad when Obama was in office but every Trump talks about fake news and they are the enemy just puts more fuel on the fire for these big news companies to keep attacking him. Anyway you look at it a lot of the media today is awful and I have a hard time believing any of them anymore.

I am trying to take Trump's personal views of each media company out of it. I do think these big media companies don't tell the whole truth in their headlines or stories and it has gotten even worse with Trump in office (on both sides of the aisle). And a lot of them turn everything he does in a negative or don't really report too much on the positive stuff that he has done. It is bad on both sides but it is pretty apparent nearly all of the big news companies don't like Trump and report on him in a negative light 95% of the time.

I do not take anything he says as fact or truth or get news from him. I think he is referring to the big 24 hour companies, a lot of people might not watch but they do see the articles or the headlines of the articles on social media. There are a lot of people (I am guilty sometimes as well) that just read a headline and believe it without actually reading the article or doing any research.

I think he uses harsh words and is over the top but I do agree that the media is a huge influence on people and they don't always report news fairly. So is this a package the guy caught last week sent before he was arrested or is this from someone else?

I think the Dodgers have overachieved the last couple years. Not sure if it is Roberts fault

11 dead at Pittsburgh synagogue
I know I am going to be "that guy" but I do think the media is part of the issue in regards to the amount of mass shootings. There is a lot of hate in the media and they also love to show the suspect and kind of prop them up. A lot of these assholes want to become famous and they see one mass shooter getting all this attention and they want to do the same. I wish the media would stop showing the face of the shooter, it doesn't help anything.

I didn't watch the whole game last night but from what I saw from Wendall is a young player who is just pressing too much. He has the talent and once he settles down and has a good game he will be just fine after.

Have you seen the cast for next seasons? They are doing half newbies and half vets (loosely used). But newbies are all from different shows including more Big Brother contestants

Fred Hoiberg is an idiot. Why is Parker out on the floor when you need a defensive stop?

It doesn't seem like you believe this based off your posts. Not everyone thinks the way you do or has the same feelings. It is all opinions and personal preference. What might be good for you might not be good for some one in South Dakota.

Market/Financial Thread
It is a 2055 target fund with Vanguard and it is set at 90% stocks and 10% bonds and a 0.15% expense ratio For some reason stocks and these accounts go right over my head and I can't seem to figure them out. That is why I just wanted something easy for now so I just went with a Roth and I have heard good things about Vanguard. I probably won't keep it in there for long though

Close to it. I would never touch it, I just have it in a target fund. I don't know enough about stocks to do much else at the moment This is what I have heard from people smarter than I am when it comes to this. The market will correct itself.

I don't have a lot in a Roth (put in about $4,500 for the year) and I ended up losing over $300 last week. Might not be a lot to some but that stung a bit.
