    Kind of like Coke but not as good. It was a poor replacement and born out of Coke's fear that they were losing to Pepsi. It was an overreaction and terrible disaster for the company, in the short term. Long term, with the reintroduction of original Coke, the brand was stronger than ever.

    Swampy.

    It won't work that way. What's happening now is that he can say total exoneration because there are zero repercussions. If he's impeached, all the evidence will be out there, again without the Barr whitewashing. Then, they can begin impeaching Barr, Nunes, etc. If Congress fails to begin an impeachment investigation, they've failed in their duties. It will hang on the Democrats for ages. Sure, Trump is lying criminal, white supremacist but the Dems have done nothing about it and they can.

    I listened to the Jim Henson biography. It was really good talking about the origins of the Muppets, including Sesame Street. It was interesting that Jim turned the ownership over to Children's Television Workshop to preserve the educational quality of the show. https://www.amazon.ca/Jim-Henson-Brian-Jay-Jones/dp/0345526112 It's available at the library, including in audiobook. The first half is great but it becomes long by the end.
  7. And THE play they made three seasons ago.

    Me too. Just got weak and thought maybe he had something to contribute. I was wrong and have been duly punished.

    Zero.
  10. But he's young and doesn't have many miles on him.
  11. Said every team that ever replaced anyone for cheaper.

    Ha! Steve Kroft feels like a newbie to me.

    "Very different". Most of our starters are returning, including in the key positions. "We drafted pretty well" but only the players that left, right? The scrubs that remain are terrible. OL - we're not starting anyone who hasn't already been with the team. No rookies will start. WIL - loved JSK but he really started looking good with Bighill. I'll take Bighill and the WIL that he'll make look good this year. Shutdown corner was not a shutdown in 2018. Randle was no island. Are safeties suddenly hard to replace? Our penciled-in starter was might have won the job out of camp if not for an injury. Vets turnover. Who on that list is hard to replace? Who? We signed some DBs. "Only made 2 known upgrades"? Huh? Receiver, DE, DB and we extended some key players. A QB who hurt his knee badly in preseason. "that the guys who have been around the club for a while are now good enough to be starters and that this years draft will net a starter this year." The very definition of draft and develop. Now you're trashing Walters? You literally say whatever you want to fit your narrative.
  14. That was the plan for this year. Next year, they're changing them I've heard.

  16. That's rough for Richards. What a terrible thing to happen.
  17. Always is, except when he was sick. He's a really good analyst.

    As a matter of fact, they didn't know it, so they investigated it. And, as a matter of fact, there was crime and many, many people have been indicted and/or plead guilty to those crimes. And, the Mueller report backs everything up. The President would be under indictment now if he were not the President.

    I would like to hear Sanders response or read a direct quote. I can't believe that she would say this. I can believe it happened but can't believe someone who lies for a living would make this kind of blunder.
  21. 3-2. Close. Closer than I thought it would be. Next up, the Ontario Government.

    Chain of command.

    We're still projected to finish behind the Oak Park Raiders though. TBurg will tell you when he's done washing his hog or something.

    This overwhelming evidence is a "hit piece". Focus on beating him in 2020. Ignore the laws and ignore common decency and ignore the fact that he's a white supremacist. Blah, blah, blah.
