The best part of the show is the Orcs. I mean Klingons.

I’ve been saying for years that the erosion of left-wing power in the U.S. is entirely because we’ve abandoned unionism is our central organizing principle. But “unions are obsolete,” or, “they’re corrupt,” or, “they make too much money,” is what I hear. No, they are not obsolete; I’d rather have the most corrupt…

Took a much younger Kurt Zouma a year to recover from a similar injury, and Ibra’s is worse, it appears. Might be a career-ender.

And the newly introduced uber-boss, Lag Spike, is particularly hard to beat, I’m finding.

There is no question he had to go. Was in the right thing to do in the long run? Maybe not, but the board had little choice. As Gab Marcotti pointed out yesterday, the squad are not employees, but assets. And when your assets fail to perform on the pitch, their value drops. If you’re hoping to sell any of these…

The turning radius of the Lusitania?

Too late.

Here’s the wiki on it:

Bradley might not have his UEFA Pro Licence. I found an article from this past summer that said he was working on it, but nothing since that says he’s completed the course. You need it to manage in a top league.

Just tried incognito. Same thing. And I get a problem-loading-page-connection-was-reset error in Firefox.

This is in Chrome, btw. If I try to load the links in Firefox, I get a problem-loading-page-connection-was-reset error. Over and over and over. So, it doesn't matter which browser I use, apparently.

Anyone have any idea why these links never work for me? All I get is a progress wheel that spins endlessly and the page never loads fully. No error message, just a blank white screen. Happens no matter which site the link is for, Amazon, Humble Bundle, etc, though Amazon is the worst. If I go directly to the page in…

Don't watch any hoops any more, either. Not since Chick Hearn died, anyway.

Because I was confused about when the season begins and ends. A couple of years ago I forgot how old I was. It happens when you hit middle age. I haven't watched a hockey game since 1994.

Whoops. You're right. I miscounted. Been so long since I've watched hockey I was thinking this was the 13-14 season.

Re-read the opening paragraph and you'll see what I mean. People misuse the word "penultimate" all the time.

Right. That would make this the ultimate season, not the penultimate as Sam writes.

If I'm reading you correctly, next season was to be the last, right? So, if they leave a season early, that would make this season the ultimate, not the penultimate — which means "next to last."

Newcastle has been absolutely awful of late. Wigan are in better form, so they could easily change places with the Mags over the final two games. This ain't over.

Could have bought a '57 Desoto in 1983 for just $300.
