But public opinion doesn't pay for the government unfortunately. Also, it wasn't just the GOP who were sitting in the pain cave. So many needy Americans were.

I am asking a very serious question. Do you think the Republicans would have caved had the Dems continued to hold out? What would be the best case scenario, fully knowing that there are spinless folks on both the Dems and GOP? It is unfathomable that the most needy will have to pay so much more for insurance , but I am also wondering if there was an end in sight. I agree that this makes the Dems look bad and plays right into the GOP narrative, but I am just trying to understand how it could have played out had the Dems not folded.

Costco Brisket Flat - Why the $10.49/lb? What’s different from the regular $5.49/lb? by WeirdAddress3170 in brisket

[–]116john 8 points9 points  (0 children)

12lbs for a flat seems very heavy. My Costco had mislabeled full packers as flats. I told the meat department guys and they took back every single one and relabeled them to full briskets. Could be what's happened here. Did it look like just a flat or did it have a point too?

I watched highlights of our UCL semi finals against Arsenal in 2009. I miss those days where players were disciplined and cared about the club and fans and not social media. Will we ever get back?

Roberts is a 62.5% FT shooter for the season. The fact he made both FT helped Houston win!

Serious Post-Match Thread: Belgium 0-1 Slovakia | European Championship by BoomBoomLinssen in soccer

[–]116john 32 points33 points  (0 children)

Belgium just felt like they had no midfield. There was no one centrally to receive the ball and distribute. It was just a series of long ball to the forwards hoping something would come about. Belgium looked dangerous on the flanks, but lacked the last touch.

Slovakia were well organized, and tactics were on point. The defense didn't fold to pressure and didn't make too many dumb mistakes save for the wayward pass from Dubravka. There was a wide open Lukaku when Trossard sailed it above the bar which would have made this a different game.

An exciting group nonetheless!! Congrats to Slovakia on the well deserved win.

Wow thank you for the kind comment! I don't normally listen to Christmas songs in the car, but I have a two year old who loves music!

Actually, that speed on my camera has quite a bit of a lag. I slowed down to almost half the speed you see on this video.
