That’s an awesome story, awesomely told, BMNO. Poor man’s perfect game! In the city title game no less! Congrats on your glory days. You made my day.

My first AB for Wilson as a Deal 9th grader (back when it was still a Junior High) was in a DCIAA game, although I don’t remember against who. It was at Dunbar, but i don’t think it was against Dunbar. Coach Smith, who had also played for Wilson a few years previous, described a game he played in where a van full of…

This is one of the most inefficient and ineffective ways to get rid of under-performing employees.

If this russian doll nesting is Musk’s concern his staff should find who is doing the real work and hire them as actual employees or show them how to be their own contracting company. Either way nested cost can be eliminated.

Well if he wants a stable workforce he needs to hire all them employees, give them benefits, reduce hours slightly, and find some consultants that can find ways to make life better for employees.

Wait is the boring company a giant pun on wood boring worms common on 18th century sailing vessels?

Hmm. Interesting. “Contractors” in most factories and any company these days means temp staff who have no benefits, paid holidays, sick days or anything else beyond their woefully small paycheck.

How is this a hit piece if it’s all true? The company can’t make half of the vehicles it promised at this point, and yet they’re getting rid of workers. He’s blaming the woes of his company on outside contractors when the issue is clearly much bigger.

You’re such a Tesla hater I wonder how you planning on getting any journalistic integrity back down the road.

The number of third-party contracting companies that we’re using has really gotten out of control, so we’re going to scrub the barnacles on that front. It’s pretty crazy. We’ve got barnacles on barnacles. So there’s going to be a lot of barnacle removal.

The only way to make car racing interesting is to go out on the street and buy the first (however many drivers there are) cars to come along that their owners will take a particular price for. A race for $50,000 and down cars would be faster than one for $20,000 down. Then randomly assign them to the drivers, pit…

Here is an idea, let the teams do a draft like the NFL, but for e-sport racers. They can run the e-sport racing series in the winter and the winning team gets a big boost in prize money to help their budget for the year.

Yep, and televise the hell out of it via steaming so Americans aren’t stuck with that steaming pile of political dog shit known as ESPN.

They could relax testing rules so that teams can do a little more of it. Have a test where only a reserve driver or an up and coming prospect can drive the car.

People have been talking for a while about having a “Launch day” event that would be the official day where all the teams reveal their new cars. Instead of each team doing it on their own schedule, showing what may or may not be final designs, liveries, or just mock-ups, you plan a televised event at Jerez (or…

it might help if they put a rule in place, that every team has to put a place on the roster for a draft racing driver even if it just a test driver spot open up more space for the feeder race league up to F1.

Inshallah!

Jesus. Put a warning above that video. I hope my taint unclenches by the weekend.

Yes, but Idris Elba, so......

Clive Owen did this in the Star BMW Film, with a snap for emphasis:
