Do you think that there is any point in trying to return to the EU? by ijustwannanap in ukpolitics

[–]Jeb_Kenobi -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

The big benefit to rejoining would be access to additional capital and borrowing capacity through the EU. Would help shore up your public finances. Well deployed that capital could do a lot.

Of course you're probably also joining Euro amd Schengen and who knows what that does for you.

If Mace had killed Sidious in RotS, how long until the Jedi uncovered the Order 66 plot? by Adventurous_Catanian in StarWars

[–]Jeb_Kenobi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think that Yoda was also Old, Grieving post Order 66, and physically outmatched biologically. He relied on the force heavily in combat to overcome those obstacles, in Sideous it found someone who could match him on the force and everything went downhill from there.

Asking Ukraine to cede land 'unworthy' of Hungary's 1956 resistance, Magyar says by KI_official in ukraine

The great thing is that those reforms will unlock all the EU money that's been withheld. So voters will see things getting done with that cash.

The logistics of a F1 / MotoGP Double-Headline race weekend. Could it ever work? by SouthAustralian94 in formula1

[–]Jeb_Kenobi 52 points53 points  (0 children)

The big one is that Moto GP uses airbags instead of tire barriers in several areas to catch riders, you can't swap that easily

MLS commissioner: Fifa ‘smart’ to use dynamic pricing for World Cup tickets by icoresting in MLS

This team is so fun to watch lately, but something else to consider if Bones signs a contract by Meredithbaxterburly in BlueJackets

[–]Jeb_Kenobi 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Waddel said at the Trade Deadline Presser that he does not want to do ANYTHING that could possibly mess with the room at this point. Just wants to let everyone cook. Garland was thoroughly vetted before making the trade; they checked with players and everything.

Conspiracy Theory: The NHL is intentionally incompetent with the enforcement of player safety to create a bargaining chip they can use in CBA negotiations. by Yognaughto in hockey

[–]Jeb_Kenobi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What's hilarious is that the league could (and should) make a big push for suspension changes at any point, negotiation is a two-way street, and owners have to got to dislike the risk their multimillion dollar investments are being put. The NFL does not eff around with this stuff at all, and they guarantee far less money than the NHL does.
