They need to fix the catching no doubt, but they need to be aiming much higher than Jason Castro. Just like when it comes to pitching they need to acquire good arms instead of mediocre arms like Nolasco and Hughes.

Stop Overpaying For Mediocre Players

This is gonna be a fun year

The majority of unions these days are bloated, money generating messes that often do a lot more harm then good. Not all are bad, just most.

Nvidia keeps going up up up up Still time to hop on this train!

Yeah in retrospect for as much **** as we have the GOP for rolling out a bunch of terrible candidates, the Dems rolled out two terrible ones as well. Warren or Biden would have won in a landslide.

Yes I have been on Nvidia for a couple years. It will keep going higher. Awesome day today though!

Still wouldn't have mattered. You can't run on a platform of raising taxes.especially Not during a time when we are just getting out of a recession.

On the flip side, Trump has been a Dem for decades longer than he has been a Republican, he is also pretty socially liberal at times, hopefully he only fills ONE seat as well.

Well that's because they blocked everything Obama was trying to do, which is COMPLETE BS by the way. That's the other thing at play as well, I'm much more concerned about a GOP house of rep then Trump as Pres.

Trump was speaking pretty highly of Obama yesterday, wouldn't it be hilarious if Trump nominated Obama for the SCOTUS?

I actually think Trump will be different in that regard. I think he realizes that he actually has a shot to reduce govt and reduce wasteful spending, because he is as outsider as they come he really doesn't care what the rest of the GOP has to say anyways.

Bernie supporters were and continue to be the problem: - They were the mostly uniformed who were protesting against Hillary, calling for her to be in prison and ultimately sat out this election because Bernie didn't get the nomination. -They are the ones protesting the election outcome, and in many cases are starting "riots" -Because they are uninformed and reek of elitism, they have no desire to hold any sort of meaningful conversation, they have been and continue to be a Bernie or Bust crowd, and would rather watch the world burn then admit that the other side might not all be the devil 100% themselves. -Agreed on the protesting part of your statement, by all means protest each and every "real decision" he makes that is ****ty. But protesting now non stop just because he won only furthers the divide in this country. Basically, what's done is done, you can go about it two different ways as a liberal: -Further your hatred of the right, and just protest/refuse to listen to opposing arguments or -Hope for the best, but be ready to act if Trump/GOP starts doing some real crappy things: (The Wall, Muslim ban, Gay Rights, Abortion, Womens rights, ending welfare/food stamps etc) Maybe I'm just an optimist, but I don't think Trump ultimately will do anything about any of those topics. Pence on the other hand..... Which brings me to my next point: It could always be worst. At least we don't have Cruz or Pence as POTUS. Plus if the GOP screws things up, then the Dems take back the house and senate in 2 years, and the white house in 4.

Clean energy/conservation is already going to continue due to market factors alone, the EPA stuff sucks, no doubt, but I have faith that hopefully it doesn't do too much damage. I would like the GOP to actually act on the "smaller" govt bit that they have talked about for decades, time to get rid of useless govt run agencies outright, or at least curb there ridiculous spending: USPS USDA IRS I would like Trump to do everything he can to enact term limits on house and senate members, I think career politicians are some of the worst things to happen to this country, on BOTH sides of the aisle. I would like the GOP to actually have the balls to pass legislation that would benefit the US moreso in our trade with China. I would very much like the new 3 tier tax code, which also should help create more small businesses across the US. Does the GOP have a lot of pitfalls? Absolutely, but I do see a few potential positives it things break right. Basically, I would much rather see the money go back into the hands of some of the people, rather then into bloated non working govt agencies.

Yes, I unlike you am not freaking out that my chosen candidate lost. I unlike you are trying to come "together" with those who voted for trump, not mock and ridicule them.

I agree the Democratic Party needs to change, but Bernie Sanders and socialism is not the change it needs... embracing socialism will only ensure that the GOP holds congress and the White House for the next 8+ years minimum. If you want socialism go move to a country that embraces it, and enjoy the 50% tax on your income and all the issues that come along with it.

Yeah and like I said, I definitely feel for them. I am marrying a "minority" in 9 months, and our children will be minorities as well. My issue is with the annoying white college age kids protesting just because their candidate didn't win. It makes Dems look like a bunch of ****ing babies.

I think the biggest issue I have seen is liberals claiming that anyone who voted for trump is a racist, bigot etc Calling someone a racist is a very very very powerful thing. In fact in our society it is only trumped (no pun intended) by being called a rapist or pedofile. Does trump have some disgusting, awful and racist fans/part of his base? Absolutely, 100% no doubt about it. Is part of his base uneducated and were duped into voting against their own self interests? Yup! But to paint some broad brush that all 50 million people who voted for him are dumb and racist is incredibly naive, offensive and only furthers the divide. I'd argue that the majority of people who voted for him are neither "super dumb" or "racist" if I'm wrong then our world as a whole is pretty ****ed anyways.

Some yes, and my heart goes out for them. But the majority? No freaking way. If you are a 18-29 year old white person (90% of the protesters) that simply isn't even close to the case.

Bernie wouldn't have stood a chance. At least with trump my taxes and a good number of folks are going to go down, with Bernie the economy would have instantly crashed and my taxes would have went UP to forgive a bunch of lazy idiots student loans and other handouts to people who don't need them. (For the record I am a huge fan of welfare, Medicare, food stamps, financial aid to poor people etc)

Dow Jones closed at a record high. It's not as doom and gloom as people think. It's America, we will be fine. Trumps not going to ban muslims, he's not going to build a wall, he's not going to scale back gay tights and abortions, he's not going to destroy all of Obamacare. It will be ok people.

Most pointless protests ever IMHO. This isn't protesting against a war, this isn't protesting human rights, or against police brutality. This is a protest literally against the rest of the countries citizens that voted to elect Trump??? I don't like the result either, but these protestors should be trying to bridge the gap between them and Trump voters (if the ever want them to maybe change their thinking) instead these protests make them dig their heels in further and validate their choices. As our next POtUs would say: SAD!

They won't repeal the LGBTQ stuff, trump is pretty socially liberal, ditto with abortion and that as well. He basically lied to the far right religious to get their votes. The EPA stuff is a concern, but clean energy is already on it's way anyways, he also says he will fund NASA which is good. It's not all doom and gloom, it sucks he won, but let's spare the dramatics just a tad.

Don't blame me, I voted for no one.
