Buy Tiger & Sell Jeter- It’s Just Business
In this episode, we discuss how even a diminished Tiger Woods is still the biggest economic driver in golf. Wonder if Derek Jeter is the next failed player turned owner, and react to reports on sexual harassment being the norm for professional cheerleaders.

Millennials – using urinal with phone is one hand, typing with thumb and dick in other
what it bad that I wanted to bump his arm and see if I could knock his phone into the urinal?
I’ve seen that from all age groups, probably see it every week at work.
seems to be a younger person thing down here
also a lot of younger men seem to prefer the stall than use a urinal
Sometimes they want to sit. Ya know gender fluidity and all…

new CDC study results
Which profession smokes the most pot?
In the “accommodation and food services” industry, 30 percent of workers reported smoking pot at least once in the past month. Those in the job category “food preparation and serving” had the highest use at 32 percent of workers.
What other professions have a high proportion of marijuana users?
“Arts, design, entertainment, sports and media” came in second at 28 percent.
Marijuana use was reported by 19 to 21 percent of workers in “production,” “life, physical, and social science,” “sales and related,” and “installation, maintenance, and repair.”

Va. state senator who visited Assad defends Syrian leader
In a General Assembly speech, Sen. Richard H. Black (R-Loudoun) said President Bashar al-Assad’s enemies may have framed him with a suspected chemical attack.
this was the ex-Russian spy and his daughter in Britain, not the Syrian attack which is also fake news according to the Russians
Having him reread it isn’t a guarantee, fwiw
That’s my point. Without clear evidence that Assad actually did this, then any opposing faction could have used chlorine or similar agents to stage an attack, and then pin it on Assad.

Siddeeq Ma’Shooq, who had been tracked to Alabama this week, was located overnight in a stolen truck in Washington County, Pennsylvania.
Ma’Shooq, also known as Steven Brooks, was involved in a pursuit that ended with an officer-involved shooting that left Ma’Shooq dead, authorities said.
Investigators had been searching for Ma’Shooq since recently issuing an arrest warrant and were able to locate him in Harvest, Alabama Wednesday night.
However, while a crisis negotiator had Ma’Shooq on the phone, he backed a vehicle out of the house’s garage, collided with two U.S. Marshal vehicles, and then led authorities on a 6-minute pursuit.
Brooks was last seen at 9:41 p.m. Central Time when the vehicle he fled authorities in caught fire, prompting him to abandon it and run into a nearby wooded area.
Apparently he managed to escape the area and make his way to Pennsylvania.

Rooster Cogburn’d
@BC. Have you seen that HBO series called the Night Of? Kid steals his dads NYC cab to go to a party. Ends up hooking up with a girl. Things happen and he’s arrested and thrown in Rikers awaiting trial. They recreated Rikers and a large portion of the show focused on turning a relatively innocent 19 yr old into a stone cold dude. Just trying to survive. No idea why they call it dept of corrections. Does anything but…
Fact: the movie Escape from New York was based on Rykers Island Jail
Great mini-series.
They have so many mini series I lose track. I haven’t stumbled on any of them that kept my attention
Sopranos and the Wire are top 2. Others are hit or miss depending on what interests you. I’m into shows that dissect or sort of mock the criminal justice system
After Sopranos everything else is a let down . Showtime has a good one with William H Macy . Forget the name .
Shameless
No, haven’t seen that show. I have seen that really happen, though. All depends on the kid, what kind of heart he’s got. From my experience, any correcting happens by your own doing, and that of civilian volunteer counselors work, which isn’t supported by the Institution, btw.
Nikki Haley , I’d hit it.

A Cape Cod career criminal with 111 charges on his record was arrested again Wednesday, charged with stabbing a man who was just released from prison, according to police. Thomas Latanowich, 28, of Yarmouth, was charged with assault with a dangerous weapon. Police said the victim suffered serious but non-life-threatening injuries to his wrist.
Police said the victim had just been released from the state corrections center in Hyannis and was being driven home by his girlfriend. Latanowich tailed their vehicle and when they pulled up to a red light, he got of his vehicle, approached the victim’s vehicle, then stabbed the man, police said. Latanowich was tracked down to the Swan Pond Village area and arrested, police said, adding an officer found the knife in the stabbing in Latanowich’s possession. He was held in custody pending an arraignment Thursday.
Authorities said Latanowich is well-known to Cape Cod law enforcement. Yarmouth police Lt. Steven Xiarhos called him a “notorious and violent criminal.” At the time of his Latanowich’s Wednesday, he was out on bail with multiple cases pending, Xiarhos said.
Should be hanged today
Get him up the road, in Controlled management, he might die in there if the media leaves it alone.
Split him up the back for a year and then dispose of him
Officers will kill him in confinement if it’s let lay.
No more wasting money defending him
They’ll spend the money, can’t have a habeas corpus.
If you’re gonna kill him, do it Rooster Cogburn style.

i consider it the primary job of law enforcement to keep people like that from stabbing me.
There’s more to it than that, read it again.
ok. just re-read it. what the hell am i missing? guy should be dead, or at least in prison til he dies.
Police said the victim had just been released from the state corrections center in Hyannis and was being driven home by his girlfriend. Latanowich tailed their vehicle and when they pulled up to a red light, he got of his vehicle, approached the victim’s vehicle, then stabbed the man, police said.
so the f what?? the victim was a recently released prisoner? BFD. again, what am i missing?
Nevermind, (I’m not disagreeing with your opinion, I’ll just leave it at that.)

so…. comey says one thing and trump says something else. what to believe? quandary?
confused? idk why. Dems and repubs both wanted Comey fired, until they didn’t. It’s all smoke and mirrors. wake up peeps…
not really confused at all: in any “he said, she said” involving trump, i’m believing the other guy.
Well that’s open minded and thoughtful.
it’s an evidence-based view.
let’s begin with day1, where he blatantly, bald-faced LIED about crowd size. i know that’s trivial, but, he felt the need to lie about it.
It’s also a closed-minded point of view. Do whatever the hell you want but it is what it is.
I’ve got to agree with wif. One guy says anything he wants, then 5 minutes later says the opposite. No way in hell he has any credibility. And I’ve been a staunch Republican all my life. That party has just changed so much, I don’t recognize it.
65,
if every time you waked up to a certain person, that person punched you in the face. hundreds of times. every time. would it be closed-minded of you to expect him to punch you the next time you walked up to him?
I can’t help but to chuckle at the visualization of that…..wif, he’s not your friend.
It’s true if it were every time or if he was wrong about everything. No one, even Trump is wrong 100% of the time as he’s portrayed.
I ain’t believing neither. Writing a book for profit for your “tell all”? BS. Trump is trump. His clownish ways go unaffected.
the russians
was listening to the Titus podcast this morning and they have a theory that all this stuff, is Putin playing the long game. He’s got stuff on everyone, so they’re all leaving the ship. The Russians are indirectly running our government through Trump.
The Russians are a red herring…media and their followares are idiots

Here’s a great snapshot of our society…
‘Surgeon specializing in ‘designer nipples’ says patients want the Kendall Jenner look’
Plastic surgeon Norman Rowe might specialize in “designer nipples,” but don’t poke fun — his business is reportedly
booming, according to a feature published on The New York Post. Rowe, who practices at Rowe Plastic Surgery on Park Avenue in NYC, says the women who seek his services are looking to change the firmness, shape and even color of their nipples, often in order to better highlight their breasts through their clothing.
One patient even cited Kendall Jenneras having ideal nipples, remarking that she loved the “pointiness” of Jenner’s nipples, and adding that they look “sexy and feminine” through her shirt.
Rowe achieves the results his patients seek, at least in part, with fillers that last “about two years,” he says, as opposed to a more
traditional filler like Botox, which lasts only three to four months.
The “designer nipple” trend isn’t exactly new, either. Rowe told the DailyMail in June 2017 that requests for his services were on the rise. And in November 2017, the Huffington Post reported that a plastic surgery firm that operates in the Midwest saw requests for the surgery surge by as much as 30 percent.
Rowe added that celebrities are largely driving the trend, especially those wearing thin or sheer tops that highlight their bodies. “My patients come in with pictures from magazines of nipples that they want; they want to wear see-through dresses too, and that makes them take a closer look at their nipples,” he told the Daily Mail in 2017.
More recently, one of Rowe’s patients told the Post she was also hoping her new nipples would “constantly make her feel like a woman” — but Rowe still seems to credit celebrities with furthering that notion. “I think more recently, the more prominent nipple has become a very popular look and a trend, and a lot of our patients want that high beam or headlight look,” he told the Post.

They need to hire some Ninja turtles
https://youtu.be/2AQlYK2_gjQ
So the scumbag in Yarmouth who killed the cop and shot his dog only ONLY had 111, and no that’s not a typo, 111 prior convictions
The judges and DA’s involved should be stripped of their jobs and jailed
Until they get serious about putting people in jail this will continue to happen
He’s lucky he is alive.
liberal Massachusetts great job idiots
Hard to even fathom
A job as a Judge should not be a lifetime appointment
Hope there’s some vigalante justice about to be metered out
State judges do not have lifetime appointments. Many are elected, which is actually a terrible idea.
in a world that worships Democracy, it is a wonder we have Judges at all
if you think about it, the basic premise is that what makes a good decision maker is that they are able to memorize the law. that’s horrific on one hand. on the other, IF the premise is, that their job is to match up the law with a case, then having a law background is necessary, but it is also completely and totally robot-automate-able. if you can google it you either broke the law or you didn’t, OR the Legislature must be compelled to re-write the law to not be misunderstood. That’s rule #1 for technical writing and Law is technical writing it’s not supposed to be literature. the problem with the screed is of course, lawyers and politicians are so beholden to each other that they will never reform Law in that way because it is against their best interest to. Everyone bases the NRA, but the most powerful lobby in the U.S. is the Law lobby. How corrupt is THAT?
The state spends more on incarceration than it does on higher education.
Are you serious with that crap
The state pays for a 1 thru 12 education
You’re gonna blame the lack of higher state funded education for the 111 priors
You are a piece of feces
I’m a piece of crap for pointing out that the state spends a lot of money on incarceration? $1.2 billion in total. More than it does on higher education.
How’s that work?
It’s the states fault in other words
Sorry, but…no.
Citing that the state spends a lot of money on its prisons…one of the top in the US, is not saying it’s the state fault that a career criminal has 111 convictions for, who knows what.
And I don’t want to argue, but, you’re sitting here blaming the state for the guy not already being locked up for life.
Enforcement of laws
Liberal mindset is to always find someone to blame
Conservative mindset is blaming the state for this criminal’s behavior. smdh
Who did that?
He should have been put down a long time ago
You did, again.
Wrong
The state is to blame for not incarcerating him
He’s responsible for his behavior
Clear?
111 convictions…reads a lot like, enforcement.
actually, a flaw in that stat COULD be (I don’t know) is that Mass is known for their PRIVATE institutions of higher education. maybe they don’t spend a lot, relatively speaking, per capita, because they have so many many private colleges and universities?
Total dollars. Not per capita.
per capita is sort of confounded in both numbers (so long as the incarceration rate is proportional to the population), but not important.
FWIW on a SLOW DAY. Quick glance a proportional chart on Wikipedia would reveal approx 2/3rds of students in Mass in higher ed attend a private institution.
I have no idea what that means as compared to other states
SMH
clearly no one with 111 convictions should still be allowed to do more crimes against society. w/o delving into the details, that sounds awful.
Stupid Mass and their 112 strikes and your out rule.

I’m guessing he was dealing something and he got hooked a few times and he prob got boned with a couple of dozen “sales” at a time of whatever it was illegal that he was selling. I mean, a contract killer doesn’t get 111 1st degree chargers and let go. got to be something he did a bunch and lots of violations per ride in the paddy wagon.
I hate scalp surgery. Shit is painful.
is this a head-in-arse joke?
Ha, I set myself up for that one.
Although I am not a sun-worshiper, I’m probably paying the price for a few sunburns in my youth. A few little basal-cell carcinomas have popped up over the past few years, and in each instance they need to be cut out.
The good news is that there’s no melanoma, but it still sucks, and it’s pricey to get the work done. $975 applied toeard my deductible yesterday.
no. I butchered it if it was.
the yes and response should have been
Maybe you should get your head out of your arse then?

Whoa horsey !
Eagles on the Guice train too I hear.
Every team is interested in every player. He’ll be long gone before they pick.
Perhaps in early scouting. Not come draft day.
I’ve been saying Barkley vs Guice
Barkley higher ceiling
Guice has the highest floor of any RB in the draft. But if they take a RB in the first round, get ready for the half of Skins fans who circle the drain because they didn’t get a DL. Because, looking at the roster, it’d be a dang near lock they take a LG with one of their only 2 picks in day 1 and 2.
Ceiling / floors/climbing walls…Sky is the limit brother for Barkley and Guice. K Johnson (Kamara like ) not far behind .
all I was saying is that, to me, Guice is the safest RB pick early in the draft. but he could fall to the 2nd round
He wont escape Rd 1
Some teams might light a guy like R Darby more, or someone that “fits their offense” or don’t want to take a RB in round 1. you’re probably right, but it isn’t out of the question for him to go day 2, especially with the rumors about off field whatever. things can move around quite a bit in a matter of fake mock prog weeks. DJ Moore has gone from a 4th to a 2nd to now seeing him mid round 1. last fakery I did the Ravens took him Rd1.
Do those hand held tasers really work?
Easier to carry than the turret mounted versions.
Wife’s in real estate and is considering carrying one
the answer is going to be depends.
more effective than a can of bear spray?
the good thing about both spray and taser is in worst case scenario you’d rather have those (if taken from you) used against you than a gun.

Here is why you don’t arm teachers.
(CNN)A teacher at the Parkland, Florida, high school where 17 students and teachers were shot to death was arrested for allegedly leaving a loaded gun in a public bathroom.
A homeless man is accused of picking it up and firing it.
According to a Broward County Sheriff’s report, Sean Simpson removed his 9mm Glock pistol while using the bathroom at the Deerfield Beach Pier on Sunday and forgot it in the stall when he left to wash his hands.

Greatest band to me
Great songs, but almost always, real short. 3 – 4 minutes most times.
Have you heard or seen them recently
Dave is unlistenable
I thought the whole Sammy Hagar thing was a bad idea. Won’t the same .
Haven’t heard or seen him in years .
Caught a tonight show, late show or whatever show performance they did. He had cut his nose doing his look at me I’m a jedi routine. They had to stop the show while he got taped up…the band played on till he came back. And yea man…he sounds awful.
I’m your ice cream man , stop me when I’m passing by

Yes sir
I fucking loved that album when I was a kid. I’d put on headphones, stare at the album cover and jam away in my own little world.
I did too. Bon Scott AC DC is the shit .
They changed the course of my life. Everything was going okay, right up until I got sent to the principal for singing Big Balls in 3rd grade.
ha ha . That’s funny . I was a little older when they hit it big .
Now you’re jumpin’ !!
Does Big Brother and the Holding Company count?
You betcha!
I confess , never heard of them before .
Dude……..Janis?
Joplin ? No , I didn’t know .
Yes
She picked my mom up hitchhiking in Frisco back in 67 or so, had a white station wagon with it painted on the side. Mama didn’t even know who they were yet.
Stanley Brothers
yes. Listening to them the other day . ” Thomas ” I think was the name of the tune

That’s the one .
Carter died way back when 🙁
I was driving my mom’s car . She had a bluegrass /gospel CD in so I just rolled with it .
They did a bunch of that before he died.
Lots of famous country singers turn to gospel when they get older . Alan Jackson , Randy Owen (Alabama ) are a couple . If you like gospel which you either do or you hate it , they are very good . Exceptional singers is why .
If you’re any kind of country or bluegrass singer, you do gospel albums, mostly raised up doing it. The little church up here does revival every once and awhile and pickers show up and play.
That’s right . That’s where most of them got started .
See some bad ass little kids sometimes, finger work on guitar or banjo is amazing, and they’re like 12, or 10 years old. Crazy. I prefer the old timers singing, though. Kids can’t put that “life” into it, ain’t never been there.

It’s a hard thing as you try to help.They hate you for trying to help and hate you if you don’t.Hang in there,bro.

If Wilt did what he did over the course of 18 years and 2 months….he would have to banging 3 women a day.
I love me some ass, but…that’s just too much work. Even if all ya gotta do is open the door and pull three from the line. It’s too much damn work.
I read about how he calculated the number. He happened to keep a log of his conquests for a certain period of time. That log averaged out to 2.3 women per day, counting threesomes, etc. He then calculated the number of days he’d lived since he was 15 and multiplied it by 2.3.

You just described Willy Nelson.
I strongly support their anti-Foo stand.
I’d only go if the tickets were free and the seats good.
Not a huge fan but I wouldn’t pass up the show if someone bought me tickets. I like them far better than Nirvana
I’m not a big Nirvana fan either….Cobain’s grumpy, depressed vocals never did it for me.
Cobain was just too whiny for me.
Never ending chorus.
And he was an absolutely terrible guitar player.
Grohl’s from the area. Back during Nirvan’s heyday, I looked up to see him sitting on the stool next to me at a Fifth Column bar just sitting there drinking his drink.

Doug Williams…

Doug Williams on DJ Swearinger’s Twitter rant…
“DJ has a right…Trent has a right….but they’re not in the draft room with us when we look at all the players and look at the best player available.
Doug Williams on 980…he’s a great interview. He’s settling in well in his new role. Hope he has a good draft.
He better.

Steve’s list of the greatest basketball players of all time, in order:
1) Wilt Chamberlain
2) Kareem Abdul-Jabaar
3) Michael Jordan
4) Magic Johnson
5) Shaquille O’Neal
I was a hardcore Laker fan in the 1980s growing up, been a casual one since
And I enjoy the list as it has no Celtics on it
But the fact that MJ appears on the list and isn’t a Laker is another feather in the cap of the GoAT.
And as far as before his time, Wilt is right up there… and if not for Bill Russell…
I don’t think Russell would even be in my top 10, honestly.
I don’t know enough about the teams they each played on, if Bill could have ever hoped to be the scorer Wilt was, but didn’t need to because he had scorers around him… I mean on the court, not in the bedroom, because there’s no denying that Wilt is prob GoAT ladies man.
So I was watching Killing Bigfoot and they didn’t .
Every episode…..”We almost got ‘eem.”
we saw his tracks
It was Andre The Giant.
…right after he ate a roasted big foot
So… Josh Norman is doing Dancing with the Stars?
Um… no
He better have an All Pro 2018 if he does because that is just too much douchiness.
He’s gonna get cut next year
Navy, submarines, penis on topic today. If an old Marine like curz was here, he would be throwing down some jokes. Hoorah
Wow, Arnold looks like a child.

Good special. The Andre bits anyway.
Somewhere in the middle it became a documentary on Hulk Hogan. Who by the way, does good impersonations of Randy Savage and the 8th wonder of the worlllllld.
The greatest basketball player of all-time is on the left.
Arnold’s a pussy.

What was it Wilt said ? He slept with over a hundred women ?
20,000 +
Jusus. I hit the century mark well before graduating college.
That’s insane .
20,000, not a hundred.
I don’t think I’ve even met 20,000 people.
I know I haven’t .
City University of New York law students protesting free speech with chants of….fuck the law.

holy moley is Matt Leblanc good as the new top gear guy
He’s got the portly AF thing down.
yes. and it takes a bit to get used to the voice. but he’s funny and he can really drive a car. that you tube vid on the Porsche 911 R is a great piece of work. I don’t know about the chemistry of the crew, but you can see why a British car show kept him even if he’s still so American.
He’s good talking to the camera. He, Chris Harris and Rory Reid have good chemistry…but nothing like Clarkson, May and Hammond.
And as good as LeBlanc is during the shoots, he’s not that great at running the audience segments. Lots of shit falls flat in the studio. Lots.
when I watch the re-runs, I skip past the guest bits anyway, both in Top Gear and in GT
Same here.
During intros to segments though, and the send off…*thud*

#2 – Kaepernick denied tryout because he won’t guarantee that he’d stopped kneeling during the national anthem. Good.

Get it for your cat……….just sayin’

You can toss a cat off a 40 story building. They land on their feet, look up at you and dare you to jump.
we’ve been waiting to get new carpets until the cat dies
for like 5 years now
we’ve had her for 10 years, we adopted her when she was (best vet guess) 7 or 8. she … won’t… die.
the vet said she needed work 2 years ago, but if it’s cancer, the cancer lost. she… won’t… die.
Little anti freeze get er done .

Until the pit loses its face and the cat has a new toy its running away with.

Oh you own a lion or tiger or panther,huh? Like a real cat?
Oh, you own a pack of pits?
One pit ain’t gonna do it son.
Ha! House cat? No problem.
Ha! Feral pit…ain’t no thing.
Cat would be looking at me like ‘Is that all? Why you wasting my time?’
Cats never die… they wait for you in hell… at the right had of Satan.
James Comey squats when he pees .
So does over half the population of the planet. Including the one that hatched you.
What’s your point?
The other half have penises including James Comey. Somehow that fact went over your head or you wouldn’t be asking
So your point is, and, correct me if I’m wrong…James Comey has a penis.
Wow. I had never considered that. Interesting observation Buck!
I don’t know what you considered based on your statement about the population . Women don’t have penises I guess is your point .
It’s 2018. All kinds of women have a penis these days.
Hillary has a penis…..she ordered it from Amazon
Hillary still has the shenis.
It’s vital gear on all those campaign stops.
No they don’t. Science says so

technically I think subs are made with HY-100 and carriers are made with HSLA-100
______________
Spent a small amount of time on an improved LA class sub. I’ve never seen a group of people less concerned about protecting classified than those guys. They had TS manuals just laying open for anyone to see, even in port. Apparently the idea was that anyone on the sub was supposed to be there, which isn’t always true in port.
In the yard if you cross the barricade and went behind the black curtains without clearance, it was your ass.
Oh?
– D-C
Lol, they give him the Big Sticks.
that was not my experience in port, at sea maybe
I had TS-SCI, Q and Crypto clearances but if the curtain was up don’t go in there was the rule
I had a vastly different experience.
See, he told you the same shit.
if my Dad had seen that shit the CO & XO would have been gone about 5 minutes later
The XO was the guy I was with.
I’m a Jr. so when I was contracting after the Charleston incident I always called ahead and let them know it was me coming and not my Dad
saved some angst and face that way
What rank was your dad?
He worked for Dept of Navy, high up there always on the sub side of the house about last 10 years he was basically equal to a 3 star
he could make or break careers in the Navy
So he was an SES-4 civilian, then?
yep I think that is where he ended up at
Does he have a house in Kitty hawk?
Nope he passed a way a while back, I’m old
Sorry for your lost, it was a serious question though. Maybe he knew the man. Used to live in Arlington.
No house in Kitty Hawk but we used to spend a couple of weeks at Nags Head growing up, he spend time with us between trips to Norfolk or Charleston
from the 50’s until he passed lived in the same house around Columbia Pike and Braddock Rd area
during WW2 his rank was only PO1 which was funny considering how he ended up
and they only let him be in the Navy 43-45 pulled him back right before we nuked Japan and the Navy kept him away from forward areas too

“A single Nimitz class air craft carrier weighs in at 228,480,000 lbs. Or, enough scrap to produce 46,228 MQ-9 Reaper drones.”
______________________
If you can remelt 114,240 tons of HY100 steel, aluminum, and copper nickel, and end up with HMWP, S-glass, and E-glass………………. I’m the king of England
they said there would be no chemistry here
It’s something new, metallurgy and polymer engineering mixed into one…. like on star wars.
Pretty sure I was doing bong hits and watching Love Boat when they had that class. Dammit.
technically I think subs are made with HY-100 and carriers are made with HSLA-100
Same situation, it’s been awhile
Did the carriers have aluminum superstructures? I know the LHDs did.
The Navy was phasing out aluminum superstructures after the Belknap collision and what the saw in the Falklands war
The think most of the Nimitz class islands are steel
I have not been on one in 20 years
We we’re putting them on LHDs in 1998, at Ingalls.
maybe because there were top heavy issues with the design??
don’t know
Those babies had excellent ballast control, could change the draft by 40′
I’ll salvage and sell the scrap, construct a giant furnace on the beach and get to making enough glass fibers to stretch to Mars and back. Down the road, I’ll build a UHMWPE manufacturing facility…out of UHMWPE.
Long live the king.
Sure, just mash the easy button.

Would love to see that same stat for guys currently on our roster. Perine?
Wear and tear red flag
HE’S AGING!
Zumwalf class destroyer can produce up to 80MW of power and can handle an air and missile defense capability. Aegis cruisers cannot without significant retrofit…
we’re going to build 3 of the Zumwalt ships due to cost overruns
at a per unit cost of $7.5B, because well we’re only building three and those sunk costs have a small divisor
Those things are bad ass
They are very cool, pulled some strings and got a tour when it was down here
Yea I was on maiden voyage. Helped install EW system. Massive fn ship…
Cool!
Not a ship so much as a cleaver that floats. And launches a shit-ton of missiles.
primary focus when they were designing it was land attack with secondary mission of surface warfare and antiair warfare
but the gun program dropped and the secondary missions became the primary missions
Yea the MK57 barrels are there.
yeah I should have said the ammunition program was dropped
they have the guns but not the new fangled ammo for them
Yup. Classic liturgical sea presence with a 1/3 the size of aegis. Could get in extremely shallow waters and reak havoc…
$4 billion a pop.
wrong again!
“No one is less right…more often…than D_C.”
Actually over $7 billion when you include R&D costs.
You and numbers and all.
that is how the DOD does cost accounting
Makes sense, but obviously R&D would have far less impact on per-ship cost if they hadn’t cut back to 3 from the originally planned production of 32 ships.
no it would have been a more “reasonable” $300M/ship
the amount of purely random thoughts that we post here are mind boggling

I married someone with principles
not sure how I did that
…or why
I know, can’t get her to call work and tell them I sick so I can play hooky

I remember a bunch of folks wanted the Redskins to try and draft Rueben Foster, character concerns be damned. Whoops.
If he’s found guilty, I hope he gets real prison time.
I never wanna draft guys with character issues
I don’t remember there being serious character concerns with him. Teams obviously knew more than draft Twitter or he wouldn’t have slid like he did. The only thing I recall was some medical questions.
that’s what I remember… a shoulder? but maybe he had other baggage. he fell from near top 10 to bottom of the round
Yeah, he had multiple stingers and maybe a concussion or two.
Didn’t he flip out on a hospital worker at the combine during the pee test?
Yeah, forgot about that. Got tired of waiting around and snapped at someone.

Looks more like a NT
Asked if it’s shocking when he finds out a teammate doesn’t smoke weed, Martellus Bennett responded, “You don’t smoke, bro?”
Martellus Bennett has gone on the record as saying, 89% of NFL players smoke marijuana.
Not 88%. Not 90%….89%
20% more than those that 69.
Martellus Bennett….confirmed liar, racebaiter, and hypocrite.
I would not be surprised if they make an example out of Foster and he gets some nominal prison time like 18 months
Not sure that’s “making an example” of someone who committed those crimes….
versus how many players got plea/bargain deals for much less than a “normal” person would
The DA is always willing to cut a deal to one extent or the other.
Also, that “normal person” vs “famous person” thing is more myth than reality. It’s more like, “rich” vs “poor”. Rich people can afford better counsel, whereas the poor get stuck with an overworked and outgunned public defender. DAs actually try to make an example out of high profile cases when they can. But most of the athlete ones I’ve seen/read about have been in line with what a non-famous person who has access to good counsel would get.

SF drafted him as Aldon Smith’s replacement.
perfect match
Depends on what kind of evidence they have on him.
The district attorney’s office also said the officers who responded at Foster’s home found a Sig Sauer 516 assault rifle and large-capacity magazine, which are both illegal to possess in the state.
so unless Foster’s lawyer can get the search thrown out, doesn’t look good on those charges
The Defense Department’s proposed 2019 budget for uncrewed systems and technologies includes a 25 percent increase over 2018 funding, which would allow it to reach $9.39 billion. That proposal includes funding for 3,447 new air, ground, and sea drones. In 2018, the budget called for only 807 new drones, according to the report.
they have drones that fly through the ground?
Yep. Those are those blockbusters they send against caves

I only get seasons through 15 (or maybe 17) on Prime
here’s my wife about 4 evenings a week, right after the kids go to bed:
she comes downstairs, sees that I’m watching a re-run of Top Gear or Grand Tour, pivots, and walks back upstairs to read a book.
The gap is a lot of good lost stuff, and I’ve heard the new Top Gear guys struggled the first season, but after getting rid of one of the guys have found a decent cast and are doing reasonably well. You almost wonder if the BBC looked at the age of the May and Clarkson and used the opportunity to go younger.
The new Top Gear, even though it’s not the lads…is still soooooo much better than Top Gear America. Which frankly, is to be avoided.
fyi…there’s tons of Top Gear segments and episodes on the youtubes. And, BT never hurt anyone.
I watched a couple of seasons of TGA last summer and it’s not the worst show I’ve ever seen, but agreed it isn’t the real thing. It grew on me a bit.
A bit.
maybe the military is finally changing their mind
you don’t need one large aircraft carrier when you could build a dozen cruiser size ships that carry 30-40 drones each for the same or less cost
Airpower isn’t at the point to which human pilots aren’t needed, and won’t be there for some time. It’ll be a mix of manned/unmanned for foreseeable future.
Right now it appears that we are scheduled to get 2019 compensatory picks in 3rd, 5th and 2x in 6th. I don’t think you can trade comp picks, but we can use our regular picks to maneuver.
you can trade comp picks starting this year
but to be clear, we wouldn’t be able to trade next year’s comp picks until they get awarded next year
yes that would be correct probably around March 1
Yes, I’m sure that would be the case.
Reuben Foster facing 3 felonies and 11 years in prison?
WHAAAAA?!?!?!
I would still draft him.
-DC
The district attorney’s office said the incident in question involved Foster’s live-in girlfriend, who told police that Foster punched her in the head eight to 10 times, dragged her by her hair and physically threw her out of Foster’s home in Los Gatos, Calif. on Feb. 11.
The 28-year-old woman flagged down a stranger’s car to call police and was left “bruised and with a ruptured ear drum,” according to the press release.
“Our focus is on holding accountable those who hurt their intimate partners,” deputy district attorney Kevin Smith said in a statement. “Our Office handles between four and five thousand domestic violence cases each year. We only hope that this case illuminates the tragic regularity of the rest.”
The district attorney’s office also said the officers who responded at Foster’s home found a Sig Sauer 516 assault rifle and large-capacity magazine, which are both illegal to possess in the state.
As a result, the 2017 first-round draft pick has also been charged with felony counts of forcefully attempting to prevent a victim from reporting a crime and possession of an assault weapon, as well as misdemeanor possession of a large capacity weapon magazine, according to the release.
Fuuuuuuuk. If only half of that is true it’s just sad. Hope she goes through with the charges…
those gun charges are serious and the DA won’t be dropping those
Wow, one county has on average about 10-15 domestic violence cases every night.
Amateur.
-The Ghost of Lawrence Phillips
One of the problems I see with the fakeries is that it’s difficult, maybe outside of a CB, even with trade backs to address some of the postions and add reasonably talented defensive speed outside of the D-line (where I’ll take power and chaos over speed)
Kaps workout with Seattle postponed after he won’t confirm if he’ll stop kneeling
I like Alex Smith. Seems like a baller.
he’s a really dedicated type. i think he’ll do well here.
He also doesn’t appear to talk out of both sides of his mouth like our last 2 QB’s
his biggest problem is that he might be too intuitive than instinctive and that’s not nec bad @ QB
Excuse me, but RG38.4 talked out of his ass, not his mouth.
AHAHAHAHAA!!
You are correct sir!
To be fair, though, Scamp, pretty hard to tell the difference.

2012: no pick RG3 trade
2013: Amerson
2014: Murphy
2015: Smith
2016: Cravens
2017: Anderson
pretty sucky, not a single top tier guy in the bunch
Smith will continue to be almost good for a few more seasons
Smith has good advanced numbers.
I hate advanced numbers.
He was pretty good last season…
problem is he is inconsistent
great in some games, not there in others
True
Let the pats trade up for Lamar and slide back to 21 and 31. Grab Hernandez and Chubb, then a DT at 45. Championship
you don’t get quality guys if you trade back (or that’s what some people think)
There are no quality players after pick 13. It’s science.
unless its engineering
After we sign Hankins, of course
as it stands now, only 2 picks in the top hundred this year…ouch.
It’s not like we gave picks away for free, though. We solved our QB dilemma for the next 3 years with that missing pick.
very true.
the team still badly needs a year with an extra pick or so in the top hundred to fill the roster out with talent.
we get extra picks next year
another reason you draft players like Ward/Jackson ahead of need is so you can dump higher paid guys like a Norman and sign your up & coming talent like Scherff
they get a year to develop before they have to step up
look at the 3rd/4th round guys we have taken over the 5 years who became starters
like Breeland and Cousins
more quality means better success longer term
Wow, hindsight. No way. Shocking because anyone can give you a player in any round who out-performed or under-performed their draft position.
We need better quality players. Heaven forbid we take a 1st or 2nd round talent who become perennial All Pros.
We need better quality players.
___________
That’s typically why I’m usually against trading back in rds 1 and 2. This team needs quality.
if you trade back from 13 to 20 and get a 40+ pick and you don’t get two quality players
fire everyone in the FO right now
Nicholson (hopefully)
Fish and that guy with the hyphenated name…
I think the fanbase has overvalued Fish due to his unique name and a fairly active preseason. With all the injuries last year, he’d have been activated much earlier if he’d been ready.
BOOM!
With the way we’ve been picking 1st and 2nd rounders… maybe we should trade them in for a bunch of 3rd round and later picks.
2nd round picks have been less than stellar
Murphy, Smith, Cravens, jury still out on Anderson
I never liked the Anderson pick…
Oh, and, Kirk Schmirk, Fudge that Guy!
I’m not adverse to trading back in either/both 1st and 2nd to get more picks
there are a lot of good DL/OL/RB prospects available in the first 3 rounds
I’m not having and trade backs in the first two rounds. We need the quality over the quantity.
we’ve got the 5 covered
Smith, Williams, Kerrigan, Norman, Reed/Crowder
need to add more quality at the next level
depends on what kind of trade-back we’re talking
by adding quantity you (usually) increase your odds of finding quality, within reason
I’m assuming one would do a trade back in either or both 1st and 2nd rounds and end up with a 3rd and 4th round additional pick but still a 1st and 2nd round pick
I’m with Kon.
Pick the best players available who can give us a talent advantage.
WE NEED BETTER TOP-TIER TALENT NOT MORE PRETTY GOOD PLAYERS.
not opposed to moving from 13 to say 16 or 17 and getting a 3rd for our trouble if available. Not anything less tho
if you think about it, their first three picks will probably be
OG, RB, DB if they don’t trade
if they sign hankins, then I’m down, otoh, if not, they need another dl. We don’t have enough talent there.
if they don’t think they have their starters at DB and RB, then I would guess they go that way rather than DL because they already have starters there, where those other three spots they might not think so
we have 2 picks in the top 100 trade back twice and we should have 4 picks in the top 100
most likely a #1, a #2 and 2 #3’s
The Pats are doing it again
they Have 2 #1, 2 #2 and 1 #3
plus both #3 from last year missed the year with injuries and they get both those guys back
so that is like 7 new young guys on the team
Smart organization versus, well, us… 🙁
are they?
you can really question a lot of their moves the last few years
but maybe it matters less because of their system(s)
It’s less about smart and more about having the brass to make the moves that keeps the talent coming in.
But trade a Ryan Kerrigan for picks and fans would straight lose their damn minds.
because we have no track record for being smart
23 or 24 years ago maybe…
Fans don’t or shouldn’t matter with regard to being SMART and making moves to better the TEAM! Patriots are smarter than us. Idgaf if we moved RK to be a better team and fans would embrace the winning much more than the individual player.
Why you telling me? I’m the guy ready to move some dudes for picks.
oops, sorry didn’t read it that way. I thought you were opposed. It’s the way to build a winning team with the cap on draft picks…move a player or two that are proven and acquire picks…don’t wait until that player is past their prime
we also have no clue what is in the mind of the coaching staff
it may be that they think Kalis >> Lauvao or Kouandjio and LG is not a high priority
they’re going to add a few OL to the roster before camp for sure either way
I find it hard to find a RB after the 2nd round in this draft. You can find a 3rd down back for sure. Without fake trade backs, there’s a lot of talent taken between our 2nd and 4th round pick. You’ve got guys like Roc Thomas who are almost that guy, but he’s not bigger than Thompson. Maybe that’s OK for a 5th or 6th round pick.
you have to add a couple of OL/DL types each year, so you have guys in the pipeline to step up
Two things, have we signed Hankins yet? When do we start bombing the fuck out of Bashar al-Assad? Chemical weapons attacks have been confirmed
I heard a tweet bomb go off yesterday
Next Tuesday . First we have to have discussions with the media so Bashar knows it’s coming
ikr smh
I know.
I’m not buying what’s being sold to me. I’m not convinced that Assad and his administration are behind this.
who is then? he didn’t prevent them either.
It doesn’t make sense to me either . He knows we are going to bomb the shit out of him if he does it and apparently we were on the verge of leaving that shithole
Assad has already re-captured several areas. Gassing a village makes no sense. And areas under his control are pretty damn peaceful from accounts that I have seen.
If we were on the verge of leaving and who knows really , but if , that just sucked us back in . IDK , i’d like to believe the government if they say he is responsible
Assad is scum. He’d absolutely gas innocents. He’s done it before.
This!
It looks like the US and some of its allies are gearing up to prosecute another war. We’ve been at it for 17 years and still haven’t resolved the conflicts we have gotten ourselves into.
Need to re-think what we’re doing.
He’s definitely scum. The timing of this is curious . Tucker Carlson got blasted for raising the same questions .
What doesn’t make sense to me? Granted, chemical weapons are horrible and should never be used. So what we’re saying is, don’t you dare kill these women and children with chemical weapons. Please instead kill them with artillery and bullets and we’ll all be good.
no dude, you really are wrong all the fucking time aren’t you?
The use of chemical weapons is against International law and therefore needs to be swiftly and severely dealt with by a united group of allies, not just US.
Right, but it’s perfectly fine if they just shell the fuck out of those women and children. Correct?
no, stop being dense
Who is being dense? I’m pointing out the hypocrisy of our policy and you’re just ignoring it.
Geneva convention…read it
Yeah, that’s great. But again, we’re not making threats against Assad over the death of civilians by non-gas means, and he’s been murdering them by the thousands for YEARS. Hypocrisy.
But again, we’re not making threats against Assad over the death of civilians by non-gas means,
__________
Hello, we’re literally currently engaged in a war to overthrow Assad because of his brutality and support of terrorism.
Yeah, we have about 2,000 troops there in a support role. Quite the commitment. Not seeing any threats by POTUS directed at Assad over conventional attacks on civilians. And there have been over 100,000 civilian deaths since this war started.
Support role? That’s pretty naive.
Attacking civilians is against the Geneva Convention.
Nobody’s encouraging Assad to shoot up his own people.
Where does he come up with this nonsense?
Of course no one is encouraging it, but at the same time no one has drawn a line in the sand saying don’t do it or else.
omg, NOILRMOT DC! Read the Geneva convention for your “line”
I don’t believe you really understand what’s going on in Syria and what the U.S. is doing there.
You are certainly entitled to your beliefs. Personally I don’t think anyone really knows why we’re there.
Assad is essentially fighting ISIS and dozens of other terrorist and maybe-not-so-terrorist groups. As bad as Assad is, there is no guarantee, or even likelihood, that whoever replaces him won’t be worse.
Agreed
What ? For fuck sakes . You are a strange man sometimes .
So you’re saying it DOES make sense to react when 50 or so civilians are killed by chlorine bombs, but to NOT react when, say, 500 children are killed when a school is blown up by “conventional” means? I guess I must be odd, because it doesn’t make a ton of sense to me.
You’re correct. You’re odd. leave it at that
Weird, I get it. It’s not the killing and maiming of women and children that’s bad … it’s HOW you kill and maim them. I see your point now.
never said that but go back to being “different” lol
Not even doing it . I can’t without cursing and calling you bad names . Let your logic stand .
It stands just fine.
Russians are jamming to try and prevent us from bombing the crap out of him
buh bye Putin…
Music Festival Power, baby!
continuous Grateful Deadski tracks 24/7
That makes for about 2 songs…
I’d say that the Redskins team needs at the moment should be ranked as follows:
1) LG
2) RB
3) interior DL
4) S
5) TE
6) depth at T and G
7) depth at edge rusher
8) depth at CB
I’m with DJ….period
I think you have what the Redskins think with top 2; we will prob see a LG by round 2
they only have 11 OL on the roster
QB, LT, EDGE, CB, RCVR
you make sure you have a stud at those 5 positions
that is the core of an NFL team right now
not LG or RB
and that is from an NFL FO professional
not something I made up
That’s undervaluing RBs. Just look at what some of the rookie RBs did for teams last year. RBs are more important now than they have been in a while.
how many RB go in round 1 anymore?
not a lot, the position is not valued as high anymore
Kareem Hunt was what a 3rd round pick?
so was Kamara I think
2 went in round 1 last year Fournette and McCaffrey
Cook and Mixon went in 2
Hunt Foreman and Kamara went in 3
Barkley; Fournette; Elliott; Dalvin Cook was rd 2.
also why when you look at draft so many of those positions go in 1st round
thx for sharing but we have those don’t we? At least serviceable as measured by offensive production last year and cb is a question mark but not a 1st round need imo
So Scherff at RG was a bit of a reach by that logic…
…and yet he’s a 2x pro bowler who filled a huge need and who’s in line for a massive contract extension.
draft wynn…problem solved lol
Wynn also a reach at 13
the smallest reach would probably be Payne
never said at 13…no way
technically, yes he was reach but the o-line at that point was a mess
only Williams was solid
turned out to be a brilliant pick because Moses stepped up to RT
Scherff locked down RG even though was drafted to be the RT
and viola the line went from bust to boom overnight
The lack of common sense combined with extreme stubbornness is appalling at times. smgdh
Why? Because I disagree with your view and see this year’s draft strategy differently than you do? What makes your view any more worthy than mine, or someone else’s?
i wasn’t saying it was you Steve. I’m saying to ignore our last or next to last ranking against the rush, combined with reviewing our divisional opponents rushing attack is troubling. I agree to disagree but i don’t get how that fact is ignored. I’d love to have a stud rb, i think it’s not paramount. Look at the offenses production last year. then look at our lack of stopping anyone last year. end of story
Who’s ignoring DL?
dl in the first or 2nd left guard in the 1st or 2nd depending…thats’ where I’m at this year.
A guy named mikeb60 at TI posted this and I agree.
Another hole that needs to be filled on this team. Kouandjio was cut and resigned off a practice squad for gods sake. Why can’t this team invest in some quality players for a change ? LG is a huggggeeee hole

No POONA??? sigh…fail
poonanee
I had already taken two DL and when I saw his name pop up, I thought about it, but still needed a RB and LB for the class
Stop overthinking it. POONA every time 🙂
Poona ain’t playing ST
He can return kicks. He’s that good.
But he has blocked a FG
We’ll get Adam’s draft preview on QBs next week or the following week, but this is my thumbnail ranking and evaluation:
1) Rosen: the safest pick; played under center; good decision maker; big time competition; question mark is attitude and his head
2) Darnold: big arm, looks the part; has the size; big time competition; made some dumb decisions that left you scratching your head wondering what he was thinking
3) Mayfield – below
4) Jackson: incredible athlete; much, much better pocket passer than people think; big arm; slight frame; occasional accuracy issues but his WRs dropped tons of balls; needs help w footwork; with the right team/coach, could become what Vick was suppposed to be. Love this guy
5) Allen: not a 1st rd prospect; huge arm; straight out of central casting; didn’t dominate in a weak college conference; couldn’t hit the broad side of a barn with a football; if taken in 1st round, will get his GM fired.
6) Rudolph: big arm, accuracy issues; played in Big 12; spread QB who didn’t play under center. 2nd rd
How I think the draft may go
1. QB Darnold/Rosen/Allen
2. QB Darnold/Rosen/Allen
3. QB Darnold/Rosen/Allen
4. Barkley
5. Mayfield/Nelson **
6. Chubb
7. Nelson/James
8. Edmunds
9. James/Fitzpatrick
10. Smith
11. Vea
12. Mayfield/McGlinchey **
** BUF may trade with DEN to get Mayfield and then DEN could take McGlinchey
at that point we have choice of Fitzpatrick, Ward, Ridley, Davenport, Josh Jackson
otherwise replace with Fitzpatrick with McGlinchey in the BPA list at that point
my guys thinks that only 1 RB goes in 1st
Guice, Chubb, Michel, Johnson, Jones all go round 2
I think the Dolphins take Mayfield if he’s there at 11.
which is another reason why I think BUF tries to trade with DEN
Don’t forget Guice – would love for him to be a Redskin.
I like him too and have come around a bit but still would err on picking linemen
he’s not a BPA at #13
I don’t care about BPA. Filling a need with an outstanding player worthy of a mid-to low 1st rd grade is enough for me.
Guice goes 27-37
taking him 13 is a bonehead move
better off moving up in 2nd and taking him
and ignores the glaring lg and dt need. we were near the last against the rush for fucks sake! It’s not that hard to understand. Sign Hankins, then I’m down for a lg/rb 1st/2nd round picks…short of that, first two picks are o and d line imo
you also have to look at big picture
maybe you draft Ward/Jackson this year with the idea that you get rid of Norman next year if they are stud
no, you fix ‘da lines! period…
uh no you don’t
QB, LT, EDGE, CB, RCVR
you make sure you have a stud at those 5 positions
that is the core of an NFL team right now
not LG or RB
We don’t actually have a starting LG right now, and the free agent market is drying up. It’s clearly the biggest need on the team.
We can still resign Lauvao and be no worse than last year.
i know right!
-KC
just saying we don’t need to be dependent on Kuondjio
true, a practice squad signee
have to have at least an average defense
DL is going to be better than it was last year even if they don’t add anyone else.
Our RB group, on the other hand, is a total disaster zone. In the running for worst in the NFL. Desperate, critical need for ballhandling playmakers.
No doubt we need a LG, but that I agree isn’t a good fit in rd 1 in terms of where the players shake out.
our d will not be better. with less injuries it may be more consistent, but we need more than what we have. don’t kid yourself.
I don’t agree.
i realize you don’t but how?
All the BPA guys threw a fit over Brandon Scherff, too, and look how that turned out. If Guice is a stud in four years, nobody will care if he was draft 8-10 spots higher than Mel Kiper thinks he should be. I don’t think Guice is a rd 2 guy.
If we have choice of Fitzpatrick, ward, ridley, davenport, guice & jackson, I’m taking Minkah. We can get rb at 44, unless Harrison Phillips is there
To me, RB is a mandatory rd 1 or 2 selection.
Here’s the thing to me about Baker Mayfield and why he makes me nervous:
-Big 12 QB; traditionally, they haven’t done very well in the NFL
– Never played under center
– It’s not the end of the world, but he is a bit short
– I keep hearing that his best quality is his intangibles and will to win. I’ve heard that before
I know Bullock and others like his arm and his ability, but to me, Josh Rosen is pretty clearly head and shoulders over everyone else in this class. All of the QBs this year have a flaw.
I agree all are flawed. No more accurate description I’ve heard or read anywhere. Thanks for that Mr. Steve!
To me Mayfield’s best quality is his accuracy and ability to throw with anticipation. I think he’s going to be a really good NFL QB. I like Rosen, too, but his injury history scares me. He’s had some concussions and he’s not at all mobile. Supposedly he’s a bit of a locker room headache as well.
Mayfield won’t be any locker room issue at all….
-LMFAO
No, he won’t. By all accounts he’s a tremendous leader and his teammates really love him.
There’s some risk concerning extracurricular activities, but I think he’ll be alright.
I’m not able to see the future like you evidently, but I think he is a bit of a head-case. He’s also vertically challenged which creates an additional hurdle for him. Don’t point to RW and DB, they’re the exceptions or else we’d have many more in the league.
You’d like him to be taller but I don’t think it will be a problem. He knows how to find throwing lanes (and every QB, no matter how tall, has to find throwing lanes).
Idc unless he’s on our team and I hope he’s not.

I don’t think I would trade away #1 next year, but just wanted to see what I got
why would the Colts give away a potential top 5 pick?
Mind control
because they are the Colts. They took Mike Hughes CB with 44
prob about right for Hughes
Interesting test. Real world, though, I don’t think Barkley makes it to No. 7. 1-6 will consist of 4 QBs, Chubb, and Saquon, leaving with you someone like Nelson or Roquan.
4 qb, chubb and nelson were taken 1-6
I could see that
oops, only 3 qb, chubb at 4, nelson at 5 and smith at 6. So I had to try to move up
darnold lasted until 15 Ariz
I could see Mayfield possibly getting past No. 6.
I have it on good authority that if Barkley is there at #7 he’s jumped on by Tampa Bay
Or 8, or 9, or 10, or 11, ect.
So. We talked about this yesterday. Someone said there was no way it was mini bats… it’s mini bats
https://twitter.com/CBSNews/status/984461321189122049?s=19
they already had rulers, why not them? or yardsticks? givem more “reach”
That’s fake. That bat looks like blow molded plastic.
Now if it were forged steel…….
if that’s my bats to teachers story
it said 16 inch bats, which would be mini-bats
just arm the kids with bags of marbles
if they’re close to the assailant they can beat him (or HER!) with it
if they’re not, they can throw them as projectiles or throw the whole lot of them on the floor in front of em so they can’t move around
and when not, they can play with them and learn arithmetic and such
issue each kid a long sock with 3 “D” batteries in it
doubles as a battery recycling program
If you can find D batteries even
Everywhere
they are everywhere I go

wait, I thought this was a spoof, is this real?
because you’re not even deterring a guy bent on a mass stabbing attack with those.
yes the story is real, that’s is why it is so funny, amazingly dumb kinda of funny
at least they’ll be able to find the assailant
he’s the one with all the tiny bruises
or he will be the one shot dead by the school resource officer with a toy bat stuck up his ass from some angry teacher/student
The best grilled cheese is one slice each of sharp cheddar, smoked Gouda, and Havarti on sourdough bread grilled with butter
sounds amazing; hold the smoke, but yeah
Smoked Gouda is one of the best cheeses on the planet. Stellar with scrambled egg.
But okay…more for me!
you know how sometimes you have something happen and then you’re done with whatever that is?
liquid smoke happened to me
so, if it’s light… like I’m not passing up smoked gouda Southwinds pizza
but if it is too fake smokey then I’m out. doesn’t matter what it is. don’t like smoked paprika anymore either. can’t stand the liquid smoke smell. grill smoke is fine.
Ditch the chedda for feta. Cause it makes it betta.
Swap out the sourdough for potato bread.
bleh, mixing greek food with northern european cuisine
blaspheme!
Ahh, I see how you are….”food” vs. “cuisine”…..we don’t tolerate that sort of discrimination on here.
fair enough
I bet that you could go with a reuben melt there and that would be spectacular.
The best grilled cheese is the one you had when you were 10 years old, served with a piping hot bowl of tomato soup after playing out in the snow all day.
Because now, as an adult, you know what a crappy sandwich that really is.
well, as an adult at least we know what crappy abortion of cheddar American cheese is, anyway
Well, you should.
Try Red Barn Family Aged Cheddar
dun have tah in here sir
in a Cheese Shop?
dun have much call for it around here
Saxon Cheese also has a nice Olde English style cheddar
they probably also have a decent Munster
The best grilled cheese has a patty of meat usully burger
maybe they could call them a patty melt?

Would you do that? Go to Sweden to pick up your Volvo? You know, if you could afford one, since they’re pretty much $60-120K vehicles now. And now that they’ve spun off Polestar, I fully expect a Lexus LFA type Volvo soon. If it was part of the purchase price, why not? And then drive it to Germany and break it in on the autobahn.
Why buy when you can subscribe?
https://www.volvocars.com/us/cars/new-models/xc40/care-by-volvo
because I don’t want to drive a car that some other guy ruined on the autobahn
plus, if I’m buying a Volvo, it’s because I want a SUV truck to haul stuff on the weekend but good enough mileage and comfort to be a commuter car. So, I’ll prob eventually buy something like a used GLK 350, you know, a working mans’ vehicle, because Volvo is getting too posh.
They put you in a new one. Fully maintained at their expense. Even, take care of the insurance.
In 12 months…get a new one.
that might make sense for those who could afford it
given the uncertainty about how fast and dramatic this electric paradigm happens
the thing is, it COULD mean cheap gas for awhile, though I think the global demand will make that a fantasy even if NA and Europe and maybe Japan go mostly all electric fairly quickly.
Not a bad deal if you drive a lot. For me, paying for 15k miles a year would be a total waste.
Turn it into a European vacation? Sure, if I could afford to do that.
Volvo is now for those who want more than a Benz, Audi, Lexus, or BMW can offer, but think a Bentley or Rolls is too pretentious.

RGIII?
I think D_C is on my work call
people are arguing of the differentiation between milliseconds and microseconds in timestamps on records
1 ms = 1000 us = 1,000,000 ns = 1,000,000,000 ps
why would you want a micro… nevermind
.1 = tenth
.01 = hundredth
.001 = thousandth or millisecond
.0001 = millionth or microsecond
so if your transaction rate is greater than 1000 transactions per second you need to go to microseconds which gives you 10,000 tps
when they taught me math, .0001 was 1/10,000, not 1 millionth. But that was a long time ago
yeah what was I thinking
but they didn’t teach the meaning of a microsecond back then
are you guys discussing the silliness of the “time ago” stamp versus the time stamp that shows the TIME at which a comment was made?
probably more like transaction records where you’d need record of split-second time differences like say, super fast stock exchange transactions
exactly, how many possible transaction can occur at the same point in time
zero.
we’re not talking physical matter so no laws of physics are being broken
so zero is not a realistic answer
The compression waves are getting to him.
RAWKFIST!
i submit that no two events, certainly not stock trades, can happen at EXACTLY the same time.
so you are going back to the milli-micro second
with computers things can occur at the same time
we have a nifty name for them they are called collisions
in a network you can have packet collisions
in applications you can have transaction collisions
then we artificially sequence things by extending out the time until they are no long happening “at the same time”
the joys of threading on multi-core computing systems
think of it as they are colliding because the system isn’t measuring time in precise enough intervals to differentiate the time…
So think of it like, what if transactions were measured in days? Then all the transactions that day would be confounded… “collisions”
But if they were measured in microseconds, and they never had any more than about 100 transactions per milisecond, then you could rig it such that if they occurred in the same microsecond that the first one in was labelled as that microsecond and the second trans would be the next microsecond
All of them
Estimate the number of minutes that’s been going on. Multiply that by 60 by 1000 (X x 60 x 1000) and tell them how many milliseconds they’ve wasted being dumbasses.

They all suck and will get manhandled in the NFL.
That’s fairly negative.
Steve, old joke. One I made the past two seasons leading up to the draft whenever someone would mention a draft prospect. “Dude sucks. Will get manhandled in the NFL.”
I’m big fan of Penny. I’d take him over any RB not named Barkley
Does anyone know how Manusky’s defensive schemes are rated around the league? I loved him as a player. Is he capable as DC?
His best year in Indy they were right around 10th best I think, usually though he’s been in the low teens and high 20’s, how much is him vs how much is the roster, who knows.
In San Fran his defenses were usually pretty good against the run but mediocre overall. Tomsula may have more to do with the run D. Of course we sucked against the run last year but the injuries played a big part in that.
2014 was latest data I could find, top 10 food guys in US
1. PepsiCo, Inc. | 2014 Food Sales: $38.2 billion
2. Tyson Foods, Inc. | 2014 Food Sales: $36 billion
3. Nestle | 2014 Food Sales: $27.9 billion
4. JBS USA | 2014 Food Sales: $24 billion
5. Coca Cola, Co. | 2014 Food Sales: $21.4 billion
6. Anheuser-Busch InBev | 2014 Food Sales: $16.1 billion
7. ConAgra Foods, Inc. | 2014 Food Sales: $15.8 billion
8. Kraft Foods, Inc. | 2014 Food Sales: $14.3 billion
9. Smithfield Foods, Inc. | 2014 Food Sales: $13.4 billion
10. General Mills, Inc. | 2014 Food Sales: $12.5 billion
Wow. Pepsi almost double Coke! And who is JBS?
Pepsi has Frito-Lay, Quaker Oats, Tropicana, Gatorade, Sobe, Aquafina
JBS USA Holdings, Inc. is an American food processing company and a wholly owned subsidiary of JBS S.A., a Brazilian company that is the world’s largest processor of fresh beef and pork, with more than US$49 billion in annual sales as of 2017 (worldwide).
From what I can tell via wkik they also owned Esmark & ConAgra, Playtex, started in the 1850’s selling lard.
Pepsi also owns food chains such as Pizza Slut and Taco Hell. Not sure if their sales numbers are included.
Yum! operates the brands Taco Bell, KFC, Pizza Hut, and WingStreet
spun off from Pepsi in 1998
I”m sure this includes all food sales, not just drinks. But it’s still an amazing number.
The real question, not just who’s got the most money, who’s got the biggest body count?
They sold off their food division to Yum! Brand.
Although, Yum! Brand is a Pepsi created corporation.
Frito-Lay, Quaker, Naked, Tropicana
Nevermind.

I was thinking more like the NBA relocating a team or expanding eventually. Eventually I do think the MLB and NBA will both go to 32 teams.
I actually thought about this the other day.
Most cars and phones have NAV and traffic, so you don’t need the old WTOP anymore
The music radio station I listen to is DC101 HD2, which is merely the iHeartradio Rock Nation internet radio station rebroadcast on HD radio.
What other would you listen to? I mean, I’d not even consider Satellite Radio (for music) until they get to HD Radio quality. So, basically radio is down to political and sports talk. The old WJFK model is now a hatecrime, so what are ya to do as a radio station GM? OTHER THAN RANCHERO MUSIC, I mean.
The 90’s WJFK format is dead, for sure. But there’s always a way to evolve that format, as long as you keep the basics of good interviews, topics of the day, phone calls.
You can’t get away with strippers on the radio any more, fine. That was always the weakest part of those shows anyway.
So Mike Brown sat down with Eric Reid and grilled him about whether he plans to protest during the anthem this season; and I say good on him. At this point it sure seems like these prima-donnas care more about grabbing the spotlight then they do about drawing attention to the actual issues they support. Anyhow, Eric Reid can protest, speak out, march, blog, and talk all he wants about social justice issues that are important to him in accordance with his 1st amendment rights. But if I’m an NFL owner, I would absolutely demand that he does it on his own clock and with his own platform – not mine – as he has no right to hijack my place of business to promote his personal causes.
The irony being Reid already said he wasn’t going to do it a month ago.

Is this the year that Ernie Grunfeld finally gets canned?
the wizards late-season collapse is bizarre. don’t know as i’d blame ernie for that.
Not bizarre at all. the Wizards struggled all year against bad teams.
Ernie maxed out the payroll for the foreseeable future on an underachieving roster.
You go years trading away draft picks and over paying aged big men. What do you expect.
is his contract up?
wait, the narrative has been that the Redskins were the poor franchise
but I’ve been saying for years that they might be the only well (reasonably) run franchise in DC; partly based on the big, long contracts the other teams put out there.
all dc area teams are mediocre at best…c’mon man
Not sure about that. The Caps have made the playoffs 28 out the last 35 years. They choke when they get there but that’s way more success than the Skins have had. Nats are a much better run team than the Skins as well. Mike Rizzo is a very good GM.
I’m talking maybe 5 years, not since Snyder owned the team
Maybe they are actually all just like the Redskins. Built to just make the playoffs.
The Skins have made the playoffs once in the last 5 years. Nats 3 times, Caps 4 times, Wizards 4 times. So if the Skins are built to make the playoffs then they are underachieving
Sorry Mike, your wrong. Nats have been trying to make a run at the WS last 5 years and fallen short, same with Caps. Most would say they were the favorites in a few of the last years.
Skins are not in the same class at all.
Caps, Nats and Wiz suck. Let’s just call it a tickle in the back of their throats.
I don’t even care anymore. If/when I read a ticker headline that Ernie has been fired, I may start caring about the Wiz again. Until then…
So if you have a 40,000 seat stadium and less than 1,000 people show up for an event, is that a fail?
No, is exclusive

White Sox vs Rays in Chicago
947 people attended the game monday
pathetic…epic fail
I think the Marlins can succeed if they build a team for sustained success. Loria’s modus operandi was to load up the team to make a run and then, whether it worked or not, dump payroll and start all over again. Hard to build up a fan base when the owner is churning the whole roster every 2-3 yrs.
Well, then a smart promoter would tell everyone that they only made 1000 tickets available, and that there is a waiting list 100,000 long being kept safe in a vault.

Seriously. Why do cheerleaders exist in 45,000 seat arenas or stadiums? Plent of hot women in the stands if that’s the goal…
does not compute.
Do you even notice them when watching an NFL game other than panning over them after a commercial break?
not really. it’s good for 20 or 30 seconds of pom-pom shaking per game. if people (girls) are willing to do that, i have no complaints.
^So long as they aren’t doing it on the government’s time.
-Hope
The stadium’s paid for by the government, and the teams are got a big subsidy deal going on top of that.
they are there for the live crowd
have you ever been to a college football game? the cheerleaders get the crowd in those unison chants (usually) and actually have an effect on the game (the atmosphere, anyway), even if every man knows they’re going home with one of the football players and not anyone in the crowd.
I’ve been to several college games. That’s not my experience. Maybe the band gets the crowd going or dude on PA system. 90k in crowd is hard to even hear them just a few feet away.. high school absolutely
they hold up signs
We have internet porn, cheerleaders are a stage coach in a world with flying cars.
Here’s how this goes.
“The NFL does not believe in objectifying women, and we will disband our cheerleading squad”
*cheers from the feminists*
“Now, NFL, what are you going to get your employees up to 52% women?”
“Boycott the NFL!!!”
“The NFL has reversed course and will keep the the cheerleading squads, they will be more “cheer squads” and will wear more appropriate outfits, and include men”
“HATECRIME!”
Not sure she was hot, but plenty of sex in the stands, too.

Definitely not hot
Pom-pom hater.
They do more than just shake what they’ve got at the stadium. They’re also super-hot ambassadors of good will. Pillars of the community even.
Yes, some of them give me a pillar.

Did you not read the story Kon?
There’s a story?
Yes. https://www.nytimes.com/2018/04/10/sports/cheerleaders-nfl.html
Good fans with a fist stop bad fans with a mouth.
How the hell could fans be douchebag assholes to their own cheering squad? wtf.
Because most people are douchebag assholes
^For example, look at the sample size up here.
especially you , biotch
LOL
What happened this morning, Buck, did you wife share her tosterone shots with you?
It’s too early . I got nothing
you are right . People are A holes .
Not true. There are areas of the Country where most are assholes, but not everywhere
In Philly , its a given. Goes without even saying it
By default, in Philly, you are an asshole, unless proven otherwise.
The guy in Philly told a cheerleader , he hopes she gets raped . That’s nice.
^That’s fugged up, but not surprising.
what’s a story?
Love to play golf (though at this point I’m a hack), but can’t watch it. Although, it is fund to go to a tournament at a hospitality tent.
You guys are entertaining, but….golf and baseball…..nuh uh.
Nothing here for me to listen to. Don’t take it personal. It’s just business.
You get a line of credit as a courtesy and convenience.
Tiger Woods or no Tiger Woods…I pay zero attention to golf. It’s impossible to have any interest in something that damn boring.
I agree with you, but for people who like watching rich ass-holes stroll around in the grass he’s a legendary draw.
What if it’s like ‘Get Out’, and he’s really some old golf legend that should have been dead years ago.
i feel lucky to have watched tiger in his prime. talk about a mofo. talk about changing the game. the guy is incredible. he made many millions of dollars and he made many millions of dollars for every other pro golfer. a tournament with tiger playing is wholly different than one w/o him.
i do not at all try to model my swing after his. no one can do that. i’m more in the mold of couples or els, at least in my head….
I don’t get it. Tiger has millions of dollars and all his health issues are imminently fixable with the right PT. The right doc would give him the right regimine. Pull out a Rodney Yee video a couple of times a week and get everything all proportioned out. The science behind golf and tennis type injuries and how to avoid that repetive type things is all worked out. No brainer. Yet, he hasn’t done it. It feels like he’s only in this with half his arse, all he ever knew was golf, he’s sorta mentally (conciously or not) over it, but it is all he knows so he keeps coming back to get that juice, but not willing to put in that extra work you need to when you hit your 30’s.
thank you dr mike….. you’re accidentally hilarious.
??? You have no idea how much time professional golfer spend outside of tournaments in practice. And PT. Tiger has been leading edge in fitness all his career.
His back and knee issues are caused by the torque on his joints during practice. The tournament days are the easy days. There he’s only taking about 35-40 full swings, plus his warm-up routine. During practice days, he might take hundreds of full swings.
right. but the problem is, does HE do the same number of swings the opposite way? that is, if you’re left handed, you swing righty. OR, you do stretching, lifting, and other things to even out the body. I was only half joking. Rodney Yee actually has a complete workout just for athletes who do repetitive motion work. it doesn’t matter what you do. If you lift with your back, you have to do something opposite for your abs. If you do a lot of squats, you have to do front squats to keep the quads even with your glutes and hams. you don’t even really in hindsite to know anything about biology to know this. this is… statics and dynamics… Engineering 101.
but it isn’t all super simple, because even if he did take the same number of swings the opposite way, he might fix some problems while creating new or not fixing all the others because the act of swinging might for example fix the arm and back torque issues, but it might make the glutes/hams stronger than your quads and give you knee problems. the problem might ACTUALLY be that he spends too much time swinging in practice and not enough time equalizing the rest of his body. that muscle memory should be locked in way before his age.
Tiger is a Wuss, Freddie. Getting manhandled in the PGA. Get over it.

Well, he was sounding better. Now it’s back to sounding like a speaker phone.
Sounding better? Did they put him on mute?
