That seems overly complicated. I think it was just the stupid SEAL training he liked to do. Probably pushed himself too hard one time and fucked up his back. It just never healed properly for him to play golf at the same level or work out at the same level. Back injuries are finicky and not everyone can fully recover…

Don’t just look at that though. They have the 8th highest operating income in baseball at 51 million. They could easily increase payroll by 35 million to get 2 or 3 guys that could really help push the team to more playoff chances. Especially with how some of the young talent is still signed to cheap deals.

So I just looked at the NHL playoff bracket. How stupid is it that the Pens and Caps play each other in the second round if they both advance! The two best teams in not only the conference but the NHL. Who the hell thought of this playoff format?

They will fix LA this year and maybe next then move onto NY. At some point soon both Lakers and Knicks get first overalls.

Exactly. Depending on the reason I’m flying, I might not accept $800 but if they double that I may be more interested. Also offering a complimentary round trip flight to/from anywhere in the US would work for me too.

There is no way Zhang Yimou would have directed the film if he had no control over how it would go. He’s only going to get involved if he likes the story. He also wouldn’t have directed it if it had a white savior plot line as that’s like the opposite of all his films. The guy is pretty much the biggest director in…

As a liberal, I wouldn’t look at it as voting against my interests. If I’m voting for a candidate that wants to raise my taxes to give me universal healthcare then I’m really voting for my own interests as well. Over the long run I would save so much money with universal healthcare over the current system. I also…

No. I’m not Jason Bourne.

It’s learned behavior from when every team went after him when he first started. Whenever he would get whacked in the face and no penalty was called he was called a cry-baby for complaining to the refs while blood gushed out of his mouth. I think he just started taking matters in his own hand more often because of how…

You don’t actually need 1.5 billion to build a stadium though. He has enough capital that he can get loans at almost 0% interest. He’d likely get some of them from the NFL.

Found the caps fan.

I loved this show. I didn’t think there would even be a second season. Thought it was more of a one season show.

Costs were skyrocketings before ACA passage. ACA slowed down the cost increases, but no where near enough. Like not even close to what was needed. The cost kept going up too due to changes like not allowing insurance companies to deny coverage based on pre-existing conditions.

Why would he resign when it sounds like his job just got better. Getting paid to not work. What a life.

For me, I think it was only on Disney channel which my family didn’t pay for. So the only time I could watch it, along with Rescue Rangers, Darkwing, and Talespin was when Disney would do a free preview weekend.

We started with foam ones in elementary/middle school and moved to volleyballs in highschool.

That’s all they seem to be building in DC too. Your point makes sense, but then if you don’t build more affordable housing with it there won’t be any affordable places available to rent. It’s pretty tough finding an affordable apartment in DC unless you go way further out where you need a car. All the buildings that…

If they are getting rid of the thimble, they gotta at least replace it with the T-Rex or the rooster. Sliced bread would also be a solid replacement.

As I understand it, no one reneged on anything. The prosecutor was fine with the deal he made. The judge didn’t agree with it because as you say yourself, it didn’t remotely resemble justice. The judge has every right to throw out the plea deal since he didn’t make it or agree to it. Plea deals are negotiated between…

Fair point, I didn’t think of it from that angle.
