Many people in the St Louis and New Orleans areas skipped the game.

More teams are interested? The longer this goes on, the cheaper Harper’s contract will be - which would make more teams interested.

Car companies do extensive testing. That’s why Cadillac’s Northstar and 8-6-4, and Olds’ diesels were so successful.

22 years ago I called a ford dealer to see if they had any manual Contours. Salesman claimed they did, so I drove out to take a look. When I got there the salesman said there were none, and that he lied.

I root against the Redskins. Because of Dan Snyder.

“Does every team that plays against the Pats just somehow forget that Edelman is on the roster? Does he have the power of invisibility until right before the snap?”

And it made the people of New Orleans happy, too.

Back in 1986 I paid $1200.00 for a 1979 Chevy Malibu wagon with the 305 V8 and 4 speed manual, with 60K miles on it. $13,750 is too much.

Wrong. MLB attendance peaked in 2007 at 79M, has been dropping most years, and was down to 70M last year. From 2012 to 2018 it’s been a steady decline.

Money may be up, but attendance is down. More popular with the older crowd, less popular with the young, which indicates the attendance will continue to decline in the future. A good probability that money will start to decline in the near future. So why would a team lock into an expensive long term contract?

The real problem is that the idea that executive compensation be tied to share price performance has become a standard. It encourages shortsighted decision making, and is justified by trotting out the old “maximizing shareholder value”.

If the Chevy was a 10 on the ugly meter, the GMC only scores an 8.
