He’s right. The Pacers are dumb. They weren’t even smart enough to have the best player of his generation be born near their city.

No one moved the on deck circle back to its original spot after the ejection. So Ranger players went to that on deck circle past Beltre and no umps complained. Fucking stupid. I hope they all get replaced by robots sooner rather than later.

There are 211 nations in FIFA.

2002 just called, wondering what you were doing the past 15 years besides ignoring the results of its World Cup.

Never mind.

“We’ve got to fight for what I believe to be our basic freedoms. We’ve got to fight for health insurance. We’ve got to fight for retirement security.”

the main difference between private sector and public sector unions:

The average NYC police officer makes $73,000. That’s less than an MTA bus driver or an NYC sanitation worker, two organizations with union labor that not only have drastically overpaid positions but have overtime systems that favor seniority and aren’t handled in a transparent or fair (to the taxpayer) manner. This is…

Unions used to exist for noble reasons: safety and schedule issues when those laws and enforcement were ill-defined. Now? They exist to extract rents from whomever is paying—which in this case is not Trump, but the taxpayer. How can anyone, given the absolute clown show going on in Illinois, seriously be in favor of…

You say right to work makes it “difficult to collect dues and maintain membership levels”; ordinary people say right to work makes it possible for people to earn an income without paying protection money to a mob.

There was no “negotiation”. At least, no fair one. You had unions making outrageous demands, and elected officials acceding to them in return for campaign contributions and support. The taxpayer had no seat at the table.

“...I believe that this time next year, this country will be right to work in the public sector.”

Rinse and repeat. Nobody gives a shit about your unions.

I’ve seen this question (or a variant of it) asked of union leadership numerous times over the years. The same pat answer is given ‘That is what management negotiated/Our workers gave up current salary for future pension.’

Wouldn’t that be overkill (generally) in a situation where you’ve got a name, SSn, DOB, and picture that seem to match up though? Idk what standard procedure is, but I would think 999 times out of 1000 that’s going to identify the correct person.

these keystone cops’s incompetence

If it was a factor there’s probably a discoverable email trail.

Let’s be clear, Whitehead wouldn’t have been cut if (1) he was actually a good punt returner, (2) could actually contribute to the receiving core, and not just run jet sweeps, and (3) Cowboy’s didn’t draft Cole Beasley 2.0 in the 4th round.

The only way that this could possibly work is that the state would have to have no fingerprint record of either the actual perp or Whitehead (not just criminal but for any reason that required fingerprints.

as much as it pains me, I’ll be that guy on this one... I feel like we really need to see the mug shot. IF it does look like him, there’s not a lot the cops can do here. He gave them Whitehead’s info and looked like him while not having an ID. They can’t do some 20-minute DNA test and in that area booking is already…
