Oh, they were probably going to fail anyhow. Lakeville isn’t the most happening place for craft beers even for Indiana. Even if their beers were named decently and something special, I can't see it working there.

I think the problem was that actually telling a fuller story kind of made the style of the Ocean’s 11-13 movies that Soderbergh used in this movie feel forced and gave things a bit of a rushed feel. When he made those stylistic callbacks were really problematic.

She just hasn’t told you yet.

Because then you’d overlook what awful things the basketball program has done in the last ten years or so.

I’ve said the same thing about St. Mary’s of Notre Dame, which I’m pretty sure still solely exists to provide rape victims to Notre Dame football players.

I think that Lue had Hill miss the second free throw in the hopes that Golden State couldn’t get off a good shot in 4.7 seconds.

Calgary is going to probably move within the next few seasons unless they get a new stadium. Edmonton and Ottawa will likely have problems maintaining profits, especially if the cap ever moves upward. Winnipeg is subsidized by the rest of the league to compensate for them not getting much TV revenue and having an…

Yes, but Winnipeg was getting antsy last year after missing the playoffs and being near the cap. Their market really can’t sustain a high payroll even filling that place, which makes it a shaky market long term.

Your financial well being can’t be built on winning a couple of playoff rounds a year in order to break even.

Except that they were forced into the Lindros trade because he had zero interest in playing in Quebec. The move occurred because no owner was willing to take on the losses required to field even a decent young team at the NHL level.

It’s not really a large market. They’ll struggle financially because of the exchange rate on top of that and way too many people are going to hate playing there. They’d be putting a team there just to move it or fold it later.

15? Try 35.

This is pretty dead on, plus there aren’t guys on the bottom of NHL rosters just there to hit and drop gloves and they’ve been replaced with guys who can at least skate and usually handle the puck passably. This means that it’s easier to keep better players in check.

The problem is and always will be that there aren’t…

Let’s not kid ourselves though. The selection committee will still dock, say Old Dominion, for losing to Marshall more than NC State will be docked for losing to a worse Georgia Tech team to use this season as an example.

The real issue tends to be that the selection committee consistently overvalues Top 50/100 wins of…

By the way, Saquon Barkley is the fourth highest paid running back by average per year in the league once he inks his contract.

Their quarterback in 2019 will probably still be the withered and overrated husk of Eli Manning.

That’s right, it was Marty Hurney who stacked Williams, Stewart and Tolbert in the same backfield.

For the position they will have a large commitment compared to most of the league for Barkley and his backups, which kind of isn’t what New England had done the past few seasons.

I’m doubtful that Barkley will pay out much better than Trent Richardson did for Cleveland, and really don’t see why the Giants passed on…

Just making sure that I’m reading this right. The Giants are justified in overdrafting a runningback and having a large cap commitment to the position because the Patriots made things work with a stable of reasonably priced backs?

Also, didn’t Gettleman pretty much cap screw the Panthers with huge contracts to Jonathan…

I think that’s what can’t be emphasized enough is that Florida is probably the difference between this team being middling and winning their division.

Something else that needs to be mentioned is that the level of talent in the league has grown greatly in the last several years.

I think the real nightmare is the Caps making the Finals because they’re nowhere near as much fun to watch as the Lightning.
