Trump talk only- no Eagles talk allowed (Steelers talk is OK though)
WhiteWonder replied to The Real timschochet's topic in The Geek Club
how so? I am interested in which part of that you feel is a lie and what you feel is backpedaling. -

good lord, you actually provided a CPI index -

WhiteWonder replied to The Real timschochet's topic in The Geek Club
not really. No one said inflation went negative any competent person knows that inflation has been cooling (even if it's not as much as dems want you to believe) based on the bandaid fed rate increases. You are also wrong that inflation "has fallen much after 2020". apparently you forgot that inflation rose significantly from the end of 2020 to around mid 2022 (coinciding with those bandaid rate increases). did you really minor in finance? -

WhiteWonder replied to The Real timschochet's topic in The Geek Club
which misinformation and which corrections... are you suggesting CPI did not go negative for the first time since 2020? (yes i was being a little tongue in cheek with the inflation part of it, i thought that was obvious. I apologize that any comment that might look bad on the current admin ruffles your little feathers) -

raising rates 11 times since 2022 is not a good thing. It's a bandaid fix for inflation (which has not worked as well as desired). the hope is usually that the white house and congress does their part (something I don't think this administration has done very well)... maybe broker good deals with other countries, etc. -

It's also interesting that my comment had nothing to do with one side or the other, yet the usual strong libs / biden supporters were the ones immediately jumping the comment -

CPI going negative does not automatically result in deflation and deflation is not automatically bad or result in a very bad recession. I would argue right now it can be seen as a good thing. It likely cements rate cuts in September and could even put them on the table sooner. -

agreed, hopefully it helps you. put that finance minor to work -

first of all, it has not been "going down pretty steadily", it's actually been rather flat over the past 12 months... but June was the first time CPI has been negative since May of 2020 -

Keegan Bradley named 2025 Ryder Cup Captain
WhiteWonder replied to bostonlager's topic in The Geek Club
I thought it was an odd selection but as far as his personality, he's no more boring than Zach Johnson. It is weird to me that he was fighting to be on, and probably should have been on the last Ryder team (if not for JT being buddy buddy with ZJ) and now he is a captain 2 years later? And I guess Tigger turned it down. I think this was 100% Mickelson's turn to be captain at Bethpage, if not for everything that went down. They will take a player as a captains pick but no way they would ever use a captain who "defected". -
***2024 EdEx Finale - The Open Championship***
WhiteWonder replied to bostonlager's topic in The Geek Club
sounds like an awesome trip you have planned. My mom, aunt and brother went last year but it was a full on tour trip. I declined because they did spend time in St Andrews but I felt like when I do decide to go, I want the option to stay a bit longer in that area and try to get a tee time (I think when I looked it up it's sort of a be there early, get lucky etc). I used to collect golf balls as a kid. too clunky so at some point I switched to the chips. I think Fumble sent me one from Southern Hills PGA Championship 2022 and I sent him back a Shinnecock US Open from 2018 -

does this mean youll be attending at Troon? and if so.... any chance you could snag me a poker chip marker? -

always a lot of teams out there giving reports about which QB is ahead or if they are tied . it's all beat writer and talking head speculation at this point.
-
Carr was on a new team last year. Really depends on if you think a second season of familiarity with his weapons will help. I think a full season of Juwan Johnson will help but he’s already dealing with an injury. Even so, I like Carr as a solid QB3 Love getting Minshew as depth in a super flex. Levis would be interesting with Henry gone and Ridley in town.

Keeping Jacobs leaves you in the same scenario except two of your bench players can cost $2. Not a big difference. plus, if you’re not keeping Goff at $4 I’d be looking for a $2 QB with a $1 backup QB.

If Kamala Harris wins in November, what will be the conservative narrative?
WhiteWonder replied to squistion's topic in The Geek Club
pretty much. I am sure there will be election fraud narratives, despite the fact that it's probably still a coin flip at this point and Trump really hasn't done himself many favors lately. His best chance to win is to keep fairly quiet and let Biden continue to choke away the game. If Biden does win, then I agree with everything you have posted. It will be a big statement about the state of the country and how easily duped so many voters are. We didn't live in a dictatorship from 2016-2020, but now we will? Joe Biden is mentally very sharp, he just needs more sleep and less travel. -
Grace Charis - I guess she can golf? Needs her own thread.
WhiteWonder replied to edjr's topic in The Geek Club
vid confirms a few things she is mainly an OF girl capitalizing on the current male golf craze. Again, good for her. If I was an attractive girl, I'd do the same thing. The more clothes she has on the more average she looks. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I am semi surprised she is an 8. Assuming she really counted all her most recent scores and not just the most recent scores she sorta liked and kept the cards for. I will admit I am impressed with that. -
The Open/British Open - Next week - Wellness check
WhiteWonder replied to edjr's topic in The Geek Club
are you reviving the closet? I don't see my level of activity here stopping. I have the summer mock drafts, our geek balls league, possibly that new league you cooked up, fantasy baseball and I was going to attempt to be a little more active on the main bored this season. maybe Mike can clean up some of the clearly inactive geek league forums and give us a dedicated Edex/golf forum? regardless, just let me know where I have to be for this come January... or for the PNC or whatever garbage filler events we cook up between now and then. -
a thread we all knew couldn't keep horsenuts away

If he can trade, its certainly a good idea. trading for Zack Moss and only $10 extra would not be a great idea. Maybe Moss and $25 extra at the least.

Dobbins is the better gamble over Edwards imho.
-
that is extremely weird. I figured since the week prior to the break was a full monday through sunday of games, week 16 would kick off after the break and be longer. hmmm okay, well, draft order set.
