  1. The counterpoint is that she is, like Biden was, the presumptive nominee.
  2. The men's and women's 4x100 free relay finals are also tomorrow.
  3. All of the morning sessions will air live on USA starting at 4 am central. The evening semis/finals will air live on NBC starting at 1:30 pm central. Swimming will also be heavily featured in NBC’s tape-delayed prime-time coverage. https://www.nbcolympics.com/schedule/sport/swimming
  4. Yeah, I am with those guys on this one. If Biden is no longer running there no longer is a debate. Once a Democratic nominee is determined with some greater degree of certainty, then I am sure Trump will be raring to go. He has never shied away from going after another candidate. Hell, he is even work shopping nicknames for Harris. Which is such third grade playground bullshit, but his base eats third grade playground shit up. The only thing they like better is second grade playground bullshit.
  5. no access? you must be on a rocket ship to the moon. say hello to Elon and/or Jeff for me.
  6. Why ask a question you already know my answer to?
  7. Begins tomorrow. And we do not bury the lead in swimming. There are two finals tomorrow. Men's 400m freestyle (no, not that freestyle) and women's 400m freestyle. The women's 400m free will almost certainly have the world record holder plus two former world record holders. This will be a barn burner. Katie Ledecky, the greatest female swimmer of all-time, and former world record holder is NOT the favorite. That title goes the Ariarne Titmus of Australia, the current world record holder. Titmus broke Ledecky's record in 2022. But Ledecky might not even be second favorite. In 2023 Canada's Summer (seems a good name for a swimmer) McIntosh broke Titmus' record only to have Titmus reclaim the record at last year's World Championship (where Ledecky finished second and McIntosh fourth). With the three fastest women ever in the same field it will not disappoint.
  8. And yet, his departure from office is still miles more dignified and graceful than the last guy.
  9. I was thinking something similar, but it was a lot of work getting this one list extracted and joined with my data. I was curious, just not curious enough.
  10. That group of 102 wrestlers produced a total of 39 AA finishes with 6 titles. The Dream Team was the best with 20 AA's and 3 titles (Jeff Prescott x2, Matt Ruppel). Other AAs produced a single title (Mark Reiland) among their 4 AA finishes. Honorable Mention was honorable producing 2 titles (Matt Demaray) and 14 total AA finishes. The Nerds got a single 3rd place finish from Tom Miller. In total only 20 wrestlers on the list every AA'd 8 of 11 Dream Team 1 of 11 Academic Team 3 of 20 Other AA 8 of 60 Honorable Mention
  11. Hell, if zero inflation is better than a small amount of inflation why not just shoot for deflation?
  12. Harris should be ashamed of herself for taking money from a convicted felon.
  13. If you like Gary Oldman you get maximum Oldman on Slow Horses (Apple)
  14. I imagine it is a technology and expense issue. Either you need to provide internet to the most remote of regions at some cost or you need to constantly send someone to download images stored on a camera. Perhaps there is a philosophical element too. Not wanting to spoil nature with technology.
  15. I would have a hard time trusting that polling. It was done at a time that required people to imagine a world that did not yet exist. Now that it exists (and dependent on the Democrat VP pick), it would not surprise me to see the results change significantly in either direction.
