I’d rather watch a template based slide show thrown together by some dyspeptic, day-after drunk than a “deck” by some nimrod who spent days on the zoomiest animation and wordsmithed-to-hell-&-back bullet points.

At the very troops he now he now wants to honor.

He also addressed the possibility of the series leaving an opening for a reboot or revival some day by saying, “That’s not happening. This story, A Song Of Fire And Ice [sic], is done. There’s no revival, reboot, spin-off talk.”

I work for a federal agency. I am not paid out of money appropriated by Congress but by money my agency raises through other means.

I am still considered a public employee.

Hollis, who said he never met convicted sexual abuser and former Michigan State women’s gymnastics team doctor Larry Nassar in person, believes “every decision I made was a good one at the time I made it,”

That second paragraph is a piece of work. “I was all set to retire but stuck around to see MSU through this difficult time.”

I have the same question. Many of the victims were minors. They reported it to people who have a legal duty to report. How are these people not facing legal consequences.

They might be second tier, but they want to be first tier and they will whine incessantly how they are just as awful as New York, DC, and Philly, but NO ONE GIVES OUR AWFULNESS ANY RESPECT!!! and they still feel affronted that Indianapolis stole some of their awfulness 50 years…

Oh, Baltimore will fail in its attempt to prove itself. It is Baltimore after all. But it will put in the old not-getting-into-college try to be worst city. (And since you seem to be taking this waaayyyyy too seriously, allow me to point out that the category is “worst city in the country” not “worst sport fan city.”)
