There is definitely a strength, or maybe more a control/strength combo component. Certainly at top levels.

Predicting last place goes too far and undoes the reverse jinx. You now won't make the cut! He's from ASU and hangs with Rahm; he was probably at a kegger the night before.

Nice win Lager. Dang, this thing is over. I was hoping to enjoy my recovery with a faint hope of contending, but you have lapped the field already.

If you said that the Covid crash wasn't his fault, then why are you using it as one of his two 10% declines, as if that was his fault? You can't have it both ways.

We're counting Cpvid now? I didn't know you were one of those hacks, I thought you were smarter than that. Noted.

Awesome, love that show. Thanks for tracking the release.

Oligarchy!

I agree that Trump would have liked to keep the tariffs in place longer than he did, but he misgauged the short-term reaction of the markets, so he pulled them back. I applaud him for pivoting, as I think you have. And it gives him "hand", albeit not as strong, in whatever negotiations follow. As such, I wouldn't call them "unnecessary."

Justin Thomas looks broken. Just chunked a wedge half way to the green. Chipped over a green earlier.

Seems like I was wrong about ESPN+; it's mostly if not exclusively those two groups (I thought they were in the same group). But you do get other scoring updates. I don't have Paramount+ so this will have to do. I might check out other ESPN+ shots, unless anyone knows alternatives?

You've said "unnecessarily" a few times I think. Do you think other countries would be coming to the table to negotiate if Trump just talked about taking Corn Pop behind the woodshed, vs. actually implementing the tariffs briefly?

ESPN+ coverage of "Morikawa and Scheffler" seems like general coverage, try that.

Oops, thanks.

See my post to MDC above.

No, if I did I'd be printing money investing appropriately. If there is one common theme in Trump's actions, it can be summarized as: the US is done being your biotch, now kiss the ring. I imagine he hoped his tariffs would be some sort of magic solution, but they weren't (in the short term anyway), and he listened to people to pull them back. But he has put the world on notice that we are changing the way we do trade. Much like he told Europe we're done paying for your defense, and when Zelensky acted indignant at that meeting, Trump and Vance put him in his place, and now he seems more than willing to play ball. I have long hated how places like Europe were "second handers" (to borrow an Atlas Shrugged phrase), glomming off on us for defense and antiquated post-WWII tariff deals, while looking down their nose at us. Trump is changing that. It's OK to step out of your troll persona and enjoy it, MDC.

I know right?! So many areas to win at, it's like Christmas morning every day.

But we aren't at the end of the Art of the Deal yet. All of these countries consider him serious enough to come to the table. I am a little concerned about China. If Trump wins too much too soon. Pooh Bear might decide to accelerate actions on Taiwan.

This guy knows stuff.

I'm happy that SI used an actual woman, and an athlete to boot, but can we all agree that she isn't cover-worthy?

Hey, I'm on oxycodone!

Yeah, I was looking at my team and thinking "dang, I like this team!" Then I looked at another and thought the same thing. Then another... it's like that 8-team FF league you do with your family and end up with Barkley, Chase, and JJ, and it isn't the best team.

Update! Feeling good, sitting in a chair. The only thing is that there is a little air between my lung and skin, so they want to watch that. They'll monitor today and take a few xrays. It doesn't seem that concerning to them, but they want to make sure they don't take the chest tube out, send me home, then I need to come back in. I was hoping to get out of here earlier, but now my target is by evening.

But I have cancer... :sadpuppydogface: Sorry, I missed that he was taken. The Postman is fine.

I thought you lived near the edge of the grid. That seems like a posh collection of car makes for such a location.

Yeah, the combo of larger bottom with virtually no top is a bad one. She has a future as a pear. And I love athletic women in general, so I'm not biased against her. Better pics, including her face, which didn't do it for me in the OP.
