  1. Amen
  2. He has no idea how Trump spends so much time on recreation? Me neither. I remember when he criticized Obama for playing too much golf only to play 2.5x as much in his first term. Now he has spent over $52 miilion in taxpayer's money in 7 months on his golf boondoggles.
  3. So you should also take the under on 4 since 4 is a push.
  4. That is beautiful. This is ugly.
  5. It sure seems popular in your twitter feed. Why would that be?
  6. That they are even using a hotel printer, which requires connection to the hotels network, is stunning. Next thing you know they will use Signal to discuss war plans with a journalist.
  7. The Trump administration hiring practices make one long for DEI. The level of incompetence from the cabinet level down is stunning. But competence is not the hiring criteria, allegience is. It is why Hegseth still has a job in spite of his epic, historical incompetence on top of his lack of qualifications.
  8. From a BVI poster:
  9. Retail sales data is not adjusted for price changes, so a 0.5% increase can be indicative of more units sold, or higher prices for the same or fewer units sold (i.e. inflation).
  10. This is the kind of thread that makes me jealous that I do not have the same kind of shared history as you guys. On the other hand, I could do ear modeling.
  11. Pistols at dawn. In one of the other threads I made the point that this was just accounting, not an argument for "best".
  12. The 2023 bracket rules the roost (for now). The only substantive difference between 2023 and 2024 is the swap of Shane Griffith for Mitchell Mesenbrink. Once Mesenbrink completes his four years it is likely that 2024 will surpass 2023.
  13. Ooh, I hit a nerve.
  14. No, I would rather you stay dumb, so very very dumb.
  15. Beware the inside trip
  16. I have not a clue what that has to do with what I said. You are really trying too hard to shoehorn something in.
  17. My bad. I was looking at the NQ and forgetting it was 2020. But with regard to O'Toole and Hall, it is not clear to me they would have taken a redshirt year under different circumstances. Many people have pointed out that studs want to go, they don't want to sit. But even if they would have redshirted I think having a fifth tournament is an advantage in that fifth tournament as long as it does not come with injury (Eierman).
  18. And they do in that poll. Harris had by far the highest total with 23 compared to 7 for all 12 Republicans combined. Again, not the "own" you think it is. This whole thing is just so dumb when you guys don't even do the smallest amount of inquiry.
  19. Trumpeting zero votes when there were only a handful of black people in the poll is hardly the "own" you think it is.
  20. 2024 is a tough one to place because you have a bunch of guys who got five tournaments and had their highest ever finish in the fifth year (Carr, Olejnik, Hall) and O'Toole with a third place. I am sure there are some others in the non-AA spots. I will have to take a more in depth look tomorrow.
  21. Vivek Ramaswami, Ron DeSantis, Kristi Noem, Ted Cruz, Glenn Youngkin, Brian Kemp, and Scott Bessent among Republican's listed in the survey also got zero mentions from black voters. JD Vance led all Republican candidates with a whopping 3 mentions from black voters. The 12 Republican candidates listed got a total of 7 mentions among them from black voters. That is about a half more than Buttigieg.
  22. How are they bracketed?
  23. Amen. Now get all that damn sugar out of the cereal too. I get diabetic just looking at that bowl of "fruit" loops.
  24. I don't think it needs its own thread so I will toss this into @BruceyB's thread as the mirror image. There have been 14 brackets (out of 572, 2.4%) where the top 8 seeds finished in the top 8, but none where they finished in seed order. The 2013 133 bracket came closest with the top 4 seeds finishing in that order, and no wrestler missing his seed by more than two spots. The 2006 149 bracket was a very close second.
