They also want to win everything next year, and having Coutinho be fully integrated into the squad by the beginning of next year helps with that. They’ve got a large lead in the league and so can afford to plug new players in and give them time to acclimate.

Because a great CL campaign would theoretically raise the price. And there’s always a rush on WC standouts in the summer.

No, there’s no middle ground. Your interpretation of a movie raped my childhood.

The answer is so simple that it doesn’t have to be stated in the movie. It’s fully and completely explained by the military rank of the respective characters.

He might die, but I’d imagine this is still primarily his story. Rey is major insofar as she affects him. Just my two cents.

She probably isn’t the most important character in the new trilogy — I think this is the story of Kylo Ren.

It’s still about family. Kylo is Luke’s nephew and Han and Leia’s son. He’s related to everyone except Chewie, who is probably his godfather.

Of course I wouldn’t compare a go kart to an accord. But I would compare today’s average go kart with an average go kart of yesteryear.

Chick is the female version of guy.

They’re both made up of widgets. Consider major parts. The motor of today should not be considerably more expensive than the motors of that time. Yes, today’s motors are far better — but so is the machinery that makes them. The metal the motors are made of should be cheaper today, because the production is easier…

Of course it’s not. But that’s not the issue.

My use of the term ‘average car’ controls for that.

Except I’m arguing for him to do it, like, next week.

But widgets have not gone down in price.

Sorry, but Sanders is actively helping the Repubs with his single payor project.

Yes. Automation is a tool.

Well, duh. I’m not saying it’s going to happen.

Scouts spend hours watching film in order to not only judge how well the players handled their assignments (which is the thrust of this PFF argument), but to judge the players’ physical attributes. How well a lineman uses his hands, how fast he gets off the line, what his pass set looks like, etc.

No big deal. I appreciate your ire and your fire. 😉

Right, and I said they don’t build statues to the traitors. We agree. Except you can’t admit you misread my original post.
