  1. I can't speak for the mainstream media at all.....but you don't need the mainstream media to accomplish this. The GOP has been very successful at portraying liberals as evil. And intellects. And elites. And all kinds of people. That's not a comment on the media at all.....it has been their strategy since I worked for them in the 80s. There is no "sanctimony" in my statement, it's been their strategy, whether you like it or not. I'm not smearing anyone, I'm pointing out facts as I know them.
  2. I was very happy for Chris Davis, and didn't laugh at all. I know, a too serious post, I'll try harder.
  3. Niko Goodrum: https://blogs.fangraphs.com/the-tigers-found-a-diamond-in-the-rough/
  4. The Senate map will suck for a long time, it took the GOP a couple decades of impugning Democrats as worse than Satan, it will take longer to change people's minds.
  5. I doubt it. The owners clearly have the players by the #$^@#s right now. And, there are still millions of fans that think players are greedy, and owners need flexibility. Heck, we have them right here on this board.
  6. three years in they are in evaluation mode? How long will that last?
  7. Not if you need the asset you sold off. No, it isn't. Not if the asset would appreciate while you own it, especially if you don't need the asset(s) you got in return. Really, this aphorism simply is not true on its face.
  8. Those two sentences have nothing to do with each other.....nothing. And, if you have a 50/50 chance of making the playoffs, imagine if you had a decent bullpen.....
  9. A reminder.... The Russia probe was not important. Let's hope the candidates remember this. https://news.gallup.com/poll/244367/top-issues-voters-healthcare-economy-immigration.aspx
  10. I didn't hate the trade, I hate not filling the hole this off-season. I think I've made that clear. They needed at least two relief pitchers this year, probably three. But if you aren't trying to win this year, Gibson should have been traded, which I said all off-season.
  11. What year are they trying to win? Because if not this year, why is Gibson on the roster? Either they are rebuilding, and not trying to win, or not. I'm reading a lot of posts here saying they aren't trying to contend this year. When will they?
  12. Surprisingly not! My wife requests she be home while I do wiring. Not sure if she wants to watch me die, or what....
  13. No wonder you are on strike.... Hopefully you take that in the spirit it was meant!
  14. Because the FO doesn't think they are good. They said they'd invest when they were good..... Therefore, since they didn't, they must not think they are good. That's my conclusion. Of course, the Phillies weren't good last year, but invested in Arrieta, and more this year, and now they are good. Weird how that works....
  15. I would have hit Garver for Marwin when two were on....
  16. Pro tip.... Never assume the circuit breaker is off.....
  17. Less the season they lost, by not having him. Half of last year, half of this. Gonna be hard to make that up in a trade for a rental.
  18. I always made chicken cordon blue for dates I wanted to impress. Super easy, but looks hard to make.
  19. Where in the world is Mitch?
  20. If we could get that to work.... Yes.
  21. Great question! All but one of those is a job board, trying to get you to use their site. My app allows you to track everything about your search, rather than drive you to a job board. You meet someone at a networking event, you can take notes on that. Then when looking for a job, you can see if any of your connections are there, track of they helped you. It allows you to track who you've interviewed with, job by job, and how that went. You could keep track of all your skills, hopefully that you have on LinkedIn already. You can track your certifications and training. It's more of a process management tool, than a job board. I'm shocked LinkedIn doesn't have this in their site.
  22. I have considered changing the name......
