Or, you follow the Trump Plan, which is to accept the highest bid but internally resolve to pay them only what the lowest bidder quoted. All while “feature-creeping” the project to double its original scope. Let them sue you to get full payment, then drag it out so they settle for far less than what you got out of…
Two of the best players to ever play were on that plane. Bobby Charlton survived, and went on to become England’s best ever player, winning the World Cup in 1966, and the European Cup in 1968, setting appearance and goalscoring records for both teams, which have only recently been broken.
Duncan Edwards died. Duncan…
I doubt AFF is ever going to contract with the Argentine equivalent of “Joe’s Cut-Rate Charter Airlines & Bail Bonds.”
This story is already incredibly tragic, as lives are lives no matter who they are, but holy shit can you even imagine if this crash had happened with the Argentina national team, including Messi, on board? That would have to be the biggest sports story in the history of the world right? Man U once lost several…
So you would fly to an airport without clearance, possibly blowing up TWO planes instead of one, just so that maybe you could save yourself? Double-or-nothing doesn’t really work in this scenario.
You never choose the lowest bidder on an RFQ. You eliminate the high bid and the low bid, then you choose the best value from the remaining bidders.
This is why.
Logically speaking, yes. But since Miguel Quiroga(the pilot)also happened to be a part-time owner of the airline, he was most likely afraid of the resulting investigation .. which would have revealed that the whole flight wasn’t legal at all. (Declaring an emergency or disobeying ATC instructions triggers an…
Two things; one, he was asking for vectors. Because he had electrical failures, his navigation system was not working properly so he needed guidance from the tower to land in the right spot. Two, you can’t just fly into an airport because there is a very good chance you will crash into another airplane. The tower…
“I know, right? I didn’t know you could get tied up in the NFL!”
Another thing he might have forgotten: Ryan Fitzpatrick went to Harvard.
That’s kind of interesting. I think it’s common in just about every average profession to excel in something that might check certain boxes for you, but doesn’t define or complete you. I guess we tend to assume that anyone who reaches such a level of excellence in a sport must be completely obsessed. But that’s a…
Eh, just get him to sprinkle some Old Bay into a Natty Bo and chug it down, and Marylanders won’t be able to buy his jersey fast enough.
The language around suicide has changed, in large part as an effort to remove the attendant shame and guilt associated with the former phrasing. Suicide attempts used to be illegal, and saying someone “committed” suicide carries with it the connotation of criminal activity (i.e., “committed murder”). Suicide survivors…
Man, I just heard Dave Wannstedt yesterday morning (before anyone knew Salaam was dead) on the radio recalling a nice story about talking with him. One of the things Wanny said was that Salaam told him the downside to winning the Heisman trophy was that everyone expected you to then play more football. “The kid just…
“Stick to school, loser! High school sports is the way to make something of your life!”
One of the few courts where being white is a disadvantage.
I grew up in a black neighborhood, went to a black school, and played ball with mostly black kids. The first time (in high school) I went to a mostly-white rec center I saw so much of this shit that I thought it was some kind of white ritual I’d missed out on growing up in Houston.
Can someone check on Tim Biakabutuka please?
