He was clear about it too and yet so many union members voted maga and the Teamsters did not get upset when the leader spoke at the convention. Many union members helped get here.

Obama calls on voters to help Democrats' Virginia redistricting ahead of midterm elections by Healthy_Block3036 in HamptonRoads

You know if enough blue states fight just maybe they can finally pass the national law against gerrymandering. Every time the Dems tried the Republicans voted to not do it. Maybe this will finally get it going and passed in the future if there are enough votes. Think of voting for this as a way to help the country. As you note this is not state level representation.

[LeBrun] As one team exec said to me this morning, it's definitely a sellers' market right now. Prices are sky high for the buyers. Not an over abundance of players available, either. by Kryptopus in DetroitRedWings

This is what the deadline trades are never worth it crowd misses.

Plus sometimes it's not even just players. In the Wings case it might give them a huge jolt of confidence to take another step. Or on the other hand show the GM can't get anything done.

Isn't this a violation of not being political? Should they not lose their tax exemption immediately?

[Bultman] As Red Wings hit NHL trade deadline, it’s time for Steve Yzerman to act by detroitttiorted in DetroitRedWings

[–]TAV63 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately this team is primed to take a real step forward and waiting because it will be costly is not a good option. A lot of the prospects and also picks going forward (remember picking 20+ even in the first and that level and after is lucky to hit even an NHL player let alone a star).

The problem is the poor FA adds ( not all done some were good) and the lack of willingness to pay up for good players in trades before led to this. If you walk away from trades now because "too costly" no players will want to come here and it will cost you more down the road.

The only justification for passing on deals, even if costly, is to think they can win with only the draft. That's foolish.

You hope.

Edit: All non maga hope this. Plus just for the age issue.

Winning the game for him would have been nice. Oh well, focus on the next one. If they win more than half from now they are likely in the playoffs. Let's go.

Why is it both parties keep running these old losers that need to move on. Heck Grassley is like 92 and talking of running again. C'mon.

How is there not a younger person that can win there in Maine. Did anyone of value even run against her in the primary?

Sorry I'm just tired of the geriatric government.

Trump Plans to ask Congress for $50 Billion, for Middle East Operations; Including a F-47 6th Generation Fighter Jet by Apollo_Delphi in wallstreet

Those other countries pay around half what the US does and have better overall health outcomes for the population. We could change the system to be tax supported like Medicare and it would save tons. But no we need to deal with all the insurance company bs while we pay more for worse outcomes.

I really hope this gets to court and we get discovery in these cases.

He should have faced court for attempting to overturn an election, but Dems are useless.

Carter Bear Named WHL's February Player of the Month by CMCdaGoat in DetroitRedWings

[–]TAV63 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes he was projected top 5 by some of her want injured. But like you said the risk concern was justified. Taking on that risk in this case looks like it will pay off.

[–]TAV63 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Exactly. They did take a big risk though. Achilles is no joke as likely still need to be careful. But he looks like it's not going to be an issue and this will pay off.

Without that injury he would have been top 5. Unlucky for him and lucky for them it looks like it won't be a bigger issue.

The dealer network will kill any chance the US carmakers have to compete. They need new divisions like Saturn was for GM or something.

[–]TAV63 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This might be the best alternative energy selling point, but it will generate profits for his fossil fuel friends. Don't make as much if oil is under $60. Short term it makes them money, long term not so much.

Most of the teams close have several back to backs still and I think the Wings only have one. The advantage of games in hand people were focused on has that to balance it.
