I think the map just had spaces for 9 boxes. Delhaize is prob in that second tier. The bulk of the stores are in the low countries with others in the Balkans and then these big Virginia stores apparently.

Having three into the bye isn’t crazy, that’s happened before. And Rod Wood specifically said we weren’t guaranteed to have a bye out of the Germany game. Might have even said it wasn’t likely. But that’s the extent of defending I’ll do to a prediction I made up out of thin air.

So if she visited Michigan a couple more times, that changes everything? The voters are just blameless victims.

But failed to campaign aggressively in some key states.

I forgot we play the Patriots. What local reporter do we have that can seduce Vrabel?

I wonder if they are happy with their protest votes? I wonder if there are any Florida voters who admit to voting for Ralph Nader?

He may have run, but he probably doesn't make it through the primary a second time.

She got more votes than Trump. It's never the voters fault.

To add some numbers, here are the third party voting totals for Michigan ...... 2008 - 80,548 2012 - 51,136 2016 - 250,902 2020 - 85,410 2024 - 111,017 You'll see the same pattern if you look at Wisconsin and Pennsylvania. As a reminder, Trump won Michigan in 2016 by 10,704 votes.

Which is why for at at least the past 50 years the winner take all distribution of the Electoral College needs to change. I’m all for proportional splits. TBH I haven’t done the math, but I think it’s more fair

Similar optimism on Skubal in Will Carroll's paywalled newsletter this morning. Still a lot to know going forward, and he gives a lot more detail why, but his conclusion was similar to Boras's. Could start throwing soon... And yes, if it is paywalled, I don't copy and paste. Just giving the highlights.

Hillary lost while getting 3 million more votes than Trump. The reason she lost is because of razor thin margins in Wisconsin, Pennsylvania and Michigan. Prior to the election, bitter Bernie bros were all over the internet telling us how they were going to vote third party and that's exactly what they did. Take a few minutes to look at the historic rise in third party votes along with the margin of victory in those states and it becomes clear exactly who is to blame for Trump getting elected.

Oh god, please let this be true. 1 big thing: Gen Z leads social media exodus Some Gen Zers — ages 14 to 29 — are ditching social media in pursuit of better mental health, Axios' Rebecca Falconer reports. It's part of a wider digital detox movement away from screens and toward analog options. Research suggests that social media use is waning — and that more people are embracing app-blocking products and "dumbphones" that lack social media apps. 📵 Chris Wells, a self-described former "Twitter and Instagram junkie," tells Axios that he's "99% off" social media after doing a "Month Offline" challenge. The 26-year-old says: "I didn't know who I was without my social media accounts, and when I quit, it was pretty miraculous." "The one thing that really came back to me was a sense of privacy. I hadn't really felt that since I was a kid." 🗑️ 17-year-old Aditi Ediga deleted her phone's social media apps last fall. Ediga says: "One reason why teenagers don't want to delete apps and stop using them is that they're scared they're going to miss out on stuff, and then I realized I wasn't really missing out on anything." 🤝 NYU social psychologist Jonathan Haidt, author of a bestselling book on the effects of childhood tech use, tells Axios: "What you're seeing now, especially among Gen Z, is a self-correction back toward real-world connection." "They've felt the costs of isolation and are rediscovering what actually leads to flourishing." 🤳 Yes, but: Plenty of young Americans are still spending countless hours on social media, with platforms facing calls to ban or restrict teen access. Go deeper.

Trump definitely would have won, because he definitely would have run again and Hillary would have taken the blame for the virus.

Is it not considered a major in Europe?

Netherlands Delhaize is the owner of a bunch of grocery chains around the world including Virginia local ones Giant Food and Food Lion. I shopped at a Food Lion in belgium so not sure why that isn't mapped.

that's hilarious. i mean, you know its the NBA, right? those guys are going to do what they want and try when they want.

Finnie playing for Canada (and Talbot)

Get over it. She lost an election which should have been an easy victory. She campaigned poorly. Her fault.

Has any NFL team is gonna have four week away from home? And isn't the bye after the Europe game?
