There’s a great point to be made about how unions work as a monopoly to counteract the monopsony power of certain employers, which should be right in your wheelhouse. But your definition of monopsony in this article is just completely wrong. It’s not “monopoly-lite”, it’s actually the exact opposite of a monopoly. …
Portugal would have finished 2nd and Iceland 3rd, with number of goals being the tie-breaker after head-to-head and goal differential
That winner from Iceland was huge for Portugal. They avoid England in the round of 16, and are on the weak side of the bracket (without Germany, Spain, Italy, France, England)
Oh no it definitely happened last year, despite being “banned”. There was a lot of time spent avoiding tear gas, but people actually seemed to enjoy that part of it.
Nope not how guys talk to each other anymore (in my experience at least). That’s how we talked in high school 10 years ago. Only once recently did a friend say “that’s gay” and everyone just looked at him we were like like “wtf. who says that these days?” It was the only time I heard it used like that in years
nah i saw Muse in Newark a couple of months ago in about an 17,000 seat arena. People were giving away tickets outside and they closed off the entire balcony. I like Muse alright and was happy to get a free ticket, but it was kinda bummed seeing 10,000 people there at most
I think people are able to appreciate how awesome of an artist and musician he was even if they weren’t active fans. I’m your age and I also didn’t know many people who were hugely devoted fans, but I did hang out with a lot of musicians who were definitely influenced by him and appreciated his talent. People were…
Wait a sec, how would this have made a difference in the Patriots situation? I think the problem with that was that eligible-looking receivers were actually ineligible, not the other way around
Yes! this always bugs me. What is the problem with being able to identify the location of the game? Especially when there are four games going on at the same time
To be fair, I know two former paralegals in NYC who each worked at a top corporate law firm. Their base salaries were about 50K, but they were paid hourly and forced to work so much overtime (both worked 80+ hours per week) that they were the richest of my friends right out of college. They were always working and…
geez Modest Mouse is playing Madison Square Garden this summer, and the Strokes are headlining the Governors Ball festival. Do they really belong in this category?
Why would he hit the linesman in retaliation for a missed call?
This is what drives me nuts. There is just as much of a chance that the bad decision ends up helping you as it does hurting you. Your odds of winning are not changing based on the other people at the table
Hey it’s you! The other person I was thinking of when replying to this guy. Guy who takes the whole thing way too seriously with the different text sizes and the Patriots are ruining manhood or some shit
Dude, relax. People who come on here and declare that the pats are CHEATERS and all pats fans are awful people who root for CHEATERS that have always been CHEATERS are just as annoying as the moron pats fans with the conspiracy theories defending them. It’s a game. It’s fucking meaningless. Highly entertaining but…
Always loved Troy Brown. Capable of a big play at any time
relax
Appealing is not the same as challenging. There was no video replay in this instance. After batter crossed the plate, Augusta threw the ball to home, the catcher stepped on the plate and the ump called him out. In the majors, the offense would have had to challenge that call.
That wasn’t his point, though. He was saying baseball can’t be very complex because Dominicans play it (meaning Dominicans as a whole are dumb). Nothing to do with the education level of baseball players.
