Ce n’est pas toutes les étoiles.

Be honest, you thought about that county clerk because that’s what Abigail Fisher is going to look like in 20 years.

I think a lot of people think the spending occurs in the general. Hard to tell what people are talking about when on a general interest site (as opposed to a wonky article on a political site). I agree with your pt.

Sure. My distinction was that it’s not one of those situations where he signed a long-term contract and then had the market move on him. He gambled on himself with a one year (could have torn his ACL or got concussed 10 times) and lived up to his expectations. He’s the reigning Super Bowl MVP. It’s not going to go

No. The threat is that they’ll fun a primary challenger. This is the problem with the GOP gerrymander of 2010. It makes it impossible for the GOP reps. to align their interests with those of the majority of the residents in their states.

He’s not asking to be payed to do nothing. The Franchise tag is rule that allows a team to make on “take it or leave it” offer to a player (mainly as a way to depress star player salaries). Miller is choosing to leave it. This isn’t a holdout as he’s not under contract.

On New Year’s Day 1842, Henry David Thoreau’s older brother, John, cut himself shaving and died of tetanus / lockjaw 11 days later. Life before vaccines / antibiotics was some scary shit - - and that’s exactly what the anti-vax crowd does - not - get.

Heck ya on having the dogs along. That is all.

And you didn’t run out into the pasture, bring down a cow with a bat, and then drag it into the bed of your pickup truck with four of the other team dads? Opportunity lost.

I’ll vouch for these printers. I’ve had a Brother HL-2270DW for the past 3-5 years that I got for about 80 bucks through Amazon. Does full duplex printing with no jams. When I need to print an image the greyscale images it generates are acceptable - think quality of a b&w newspaper pick from back in the day.

Do not, I repeat, do not paint the enameled portion of a Weber grill. If it’s a gas grill, it’s fine to pain the sides (which are matte black). The colored portions of a weber (blue in the picture above) are enameled and will not hold paint (plus, it will look like crap).

Run an apple through a v-slicer / mandolin. Place in between two pieces of toasted bread coated with good peanut butter. Enjoy.

No. It’s because they don’t have to worry about some aggrieved pitcher drilling them in the head with a 9o mph fastball because they “showed them up.” Deliberately hitting a batter is the most cowardly act in all of sport — and it’s a ritual beloved by “old school” fans of baseball.

Hmm . . . how about we treat war/defense costs the same way we do new social programs and force the govt. to find an offset before we invade someone? Remember, a ton of the current debt stems from passing tax cuts and going to war at the same time. POTUS42 left us a surplus (internet bubble + end of cold war).

I don’t believe head-to-head is taken into consideration. In the event of a tie in points, the tie breakers are GD (as you mentioned), then goals for. If there’s still a tie and it doesn’t effect the league championship, champions league qualification, or relegation, the teams finish tied. If you need a clear winner

In addition to relegation, the top four teams in the league play in the Champions League (not to be confused with the Championship). The Champions League is an annual tournament which includes the top finishers in all the European Leagues (England, Spain, Germany, France, Russia, etc). In the stronger leagues the top

Agreed — except for Ezra Pound. Fscking fascist.

The problem is that Prokhorov wants to be Roman Abramovich, owner of Chelsea FC. As Kevin mentioned, in a salary cap league, the model of simply buying the most talent isn’t available.

If she is she’s doing a bad job of it. Look at her left leg. If you’re going to kneel in prayer then kneel all the way. Otherwise, just sit quietly in a chair while you talk to god.
