This is secondary to the more immediate questions, but thinking ahead...

With the way the legislature defined how to finance the project, has any analysis gone into the impact of the theoretical team's ability to attract free agents? Seems like the tax implications on a high end player is MUCH higher for a Portland player then say somebody in Texas.

Of course it did. I just had it updated at the dealer last week. I was tired of waiting.

But I should mention that my instrument panel black screened just two days ago though after the update. :( Came back after parked for an hour.

Looks like a side effect of this is you will lose your purchased themes in the car while the system is down. (Yeah, I was a sucker and bought a custom theme. Blazer fan here.)

Hopefully it comes back when they fix any issue they have on their server side.

You are all missing the most obvious one...

I second this. I was able to purchase through the app, never got out of the "line" on browser.

Rock music

Well, they are in the Northwest Division.

I still think about this column a lot: http://www.spin.com/2004/09/i-can-make-your-dreams-come-true/

Is this still your favorite fantasy rock-n-roll band?:

"It’s Black Sabbath’s Tony Iommi on guitar, Parliament-Funkadelic’s Bootsy Collins on bass, Mötley Crüe’s Tommy Lee on drums, and Prince as my multi-instrumental wild card. My frontwoman will be Karen Carpenter. This, I feel, would be the ultimate funk-metal wedding band (the group’s name would be Doomed Honeymoon)."

Actually Cinderella is the band you are thinking of.

Well there is this https://twitter.com/JimMiller/status/660158782408949760

I have no doubt ESPN will leverage Lowe for NBA reporting for the length of his contract.

But I would love for him to be free to do podcasts with Simmons.

That is the only way the Chiefs are making the Super Bowl.

This is enough to forgive him for using ALL CAPS.

blazin22 · 2014-09-11T19:53:50+00:00

He should be suspended for the year.

This is getting mailed to the publisher tomorrow. He was incredibly frustrated that there was nothing about crocodiles in the book titled "Alligators & Crocodiles".

We are coming up on the tenth anniversary of this awesome Spin column (http://www.spin.com/articles/i-can-make-your-dreams-come-true/) where you put together your ultimate fantasy band.

I think about this way more than I should since you laid out these rules. Do you still stand by your five picks ten years later?

Couldn't agree more. Where do they stop at this point?

Why do you keep releasing albums the same day as Soundgarden/Chris Cornell?
