    In fairness, we've spent the last 30-40 years redistributing wealth to the rich.......so maybe some balance would be good for the long term health of the nation/world.

    Baked Alaska is good, but not something you have to have..... I like snakes, very cool. And, yes, many around the country have been mentioning the temps to me lately....thanks,

    A glowing article on pitch recognition. http://www.fangraphs.com/blogs/miguel-sanos-other-elite-skill/

    ROI matters. Phew, that was hard. What is the ROI on relying on TERRIBLE baseball players? They might cost less, but do you get less revenue? Does losing create a cycle where good players won't sign here (many of the posters here say that).
  5. Mike Sixel
    Fair. Also fair, realizing that they are trying to predict the future talent/success of 16-25 year olds, across dozens of minor league teams, for thousands of humans......
  6. Mike Sixel
    Don't forget to send me your thank you check on NFLX, Brock....
  7. Mike Sixel
    Serious logical fallacy here.......
  8. Mike Sixel
    I could swear someone already posted that..... My response, what is the ROI on rolling out a truly awful RP for $2MM? or $4MM? or even the minimum?
  9. Mike Sixel
    My overly pessimistic day trader friend is convinced this is a dead cat bounce (or something like that), and we are DOOMED this year........
  10. Mike Sixel
    There are/were teams w/o Spanish interpreters? Wow.
  11. Mike Sixel
    Well deserved. Congrats.
  12. Mike Sixel
    I look forward to the entertainment coming our way.
  13. Mike Sixel
    They are big into helping build the future of self driving cars.....qualcomm is on my watch list.
  14. Mike Sixel
    I agree with all of that, I just changed my mind on them over the last week.....or two.
  15. Mike Sixel
    That's a fair stance. Like I said, i don't know.
  16. Mike Sixel
    Heh....number 60 in the whole world of prospects is still pretty darn high. I think people forget just how high even 100 or 200 is.

    I did it in my tax free account, where I can be more active (yes, I know this is a terrible idea). I love NFLX, but I am worried about PRIME, and I am worried about their fee being too high over seas. I love amazon, msft, google, apple....and NFLX, but more nervous about NFLX.
  18. Mike Sixel
    I just bailed on NFLX.......too many losses, too many competitors. Doubled down on Disney and NVDIA.
  19. Mike Sixel
    It's done? Huh. If he did, it is LARGELY thru free agency....which is interesting.
  20. Mike Sixel
    Which players did Hunter make better? Will they still be that good this year, or worse? I don't the answer to either. But unless someone can say "he made Rosario much better than he otherwise would have been, or Sano or Buxton"....who was he mentoring? Mauer? Suzuki? Dozier? Escobar? Plouffe? Hughes? Perkins? Ervin Santana? I could keep listing the veterans on this roster.....but the point is, there weren't many young players even on the roster for him to mentor, were there? Does anyone think that Sano would have hit worse if Hunter wasn't there? If so, Hunter was worth about 20-30MM? Right?

    When has the party ever really been conservative on cost issues? Congress likes to spend money, even the tea party guys and gals. No one has the fortitude to tax and not spend, to pay, for, example, a war.
  22. Mike Sixel
    I'd see if CO wants Tonkin, he fits their mold of guys that throw hard, but don't rely on movement (since the balls don't move as much in CO). They must have an A ball prospect of some worth.....
  23. Mike Sixel
    No, they are NOT supposed to vote based on the wishes of their constituents. They are to listen to them, but they are supposed to be more knowledgeable on the issues, and vote the best way, even if it isn't the popular way. I'm not looking hard at all. That was a stupid war. Many of us knew it at the time. I see no place in my posts where I am bashing Clinton, I am praising Sanders. Those, btw, are independent activities. I can say that the a certain actress is beautiful, that says nothing about my wife at all.
  24. Mike Sixel
    I don't know, there were plenty of people who didn't believe the lies being told....being right about that shows strength of character, imo.

    He is just not interested in alcohol.
