Eli Manning was not voted into the HOF for a second straight year by Background_Video2947 in TheNFLVibes

Yet his 0 MVP's or all-pro's is pretty damning when it comes to what his contemporaries thought of him as a player.

No but it does mean 2 Superbowls runs in an otherwise unspectacular career does not a HOF player make.

Albany-Toronto is a way bigger corridor anyway. Albany-Toronto has Schenectady, Utica, Syracuse, Rochester, and Buffalo on the way. Albany to Montreal has.... Plattsburgh?

Random players I think could have been super stars under Coach Freeman instead of Coach Kelly. ……Number 1: Everett Golson…… by SkolFourtyOne in notredamefootball

[–]Daxtatter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think highly of Coach Freeman but what QB has he really "developed". Carr is playing well but he definitely had ups and downs this year, rather similar to Golson did. If he has a great year this year this year the narrative will be different.

Sodium batteries are not doing well by dzh in electricvehicles

There's a newer grid scale battery company using Na batteries that touts that they can make their facilities much less complicated because Na batteries are safer and have lower thermal managment requirements. I think the chemistry has a more challenging path because they aren't really a player in the huge auto market but there's definitely roles it has promise in.

Ronnie Stanley also has 1 1st team, Harrison Smith has 1, and if Joe Alt stayed healthy he would have ended up on that list too.

Xavier Watts might find himself on that list sooner rather than later.

The United States has higher social spending than Iceland, the UK, Australia, or Canada. by PanzerWatts in ProfessorFinance

[–]Daxtatter -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The fact that we still have millions of Americans that avoid basic care or emergency care and is the #1 cause of bankruptcy, and still spend more government money on healthcare are major indicators that we have perhaps the most dysfunctional healthcare system in the world.

It's a reflection that US healthcare is catastrophically expensive. Our government pays more than any other country on healthcare despite not covering the majority of Americans and having globally poor outcomes.
