I loved the fake enthusiasm Crofty & Martin tried to build as the top 4 were all within 2 seconds of each other. There is one tiny place to pass on the track and nobody was overtaking anyone.

Crofty is getting ornery during this delay.

I still think Charles has too much pace but rain is exactly what everyone else this race needed.

An AR-15 has one real use for civilian gun owners. It’s a recreational weapon that most gun owners enjoy shooting at a range or open space. It is not a hunting weapon and isn’t very practical as a home defense weapon. Eliminating it wouldn’t really be that big a deal. It’s recreational. As you alluded, the problem is the NRA continues to hold the line with the slippery slope argument of first the government will come for the semi-automatics and then they will come for the rest of the guns. It doesn’t have to be this way. If we can find a way to draw the line and separate these guns from the rest then we have a chance to eliminate them. That’s why I think it’s so important to delineate between controls to stop mass shootings and traditional gun control measures aimed at handguns.

On pace for perfect game #24

We’ve reached a point of how to stop mass shootings is it’s own stand alone issue and not just part of the gun control debate. We need to figure out how to make it much more difficult for someone to commit a mass shooting without getting tripped up by the same old NRA taking points.

Handguns are what you use to protect yourself and family. Nobody is taking these away. AR-15’s and other similar guns have no practical use by civilians and at this point serve no purpose in our society.

I remember how frustrating the crease rule used to be. It got the point that you didn’t get excited on a goal around the net until the video review was done.

Monaco is like the popular song from your favorite band that you liked when you first heard it but has now become your least favorite in the catalog.

At this point, I think his best move is Indycar. That’s the only place he’s going to see a podium again.

Fun fact: Mo Seider and Oskar Sundqvist are both represented by the agency run by Claude Lemieux. Forsberg is a partner as well.

This sounds like something made up after the fact to try and cover their ass. If they felt the suspect was barricaded in a room they would’ve entered the school and closed their perimeter around him as much as possible and keep him contained. They also should’ve entered to free students in other parts of the school.

Could this be an indication that Dylan wants a change of scenery?

Neither do I but I think they will try hard for Ayton.

Great Win

The challenge is that everyone will be clearing space for next year. It will be a very crowded market. This year not so much.

I don’t like it either but I think there’s a very strong chance they blow the bank on Ayton.

If you ain’t cheating, you ain’t flying

Yes. He apparently shot the shooter who was wearing body armor and the shooter was able to kill the guard. There were reports of something similar happening yesterday with body armor protecting the shooter after he was shot.

The gunheads love to push their argument that we need more armed guards and that a good guy with a gun will stop a bad gun with a gun. This is the 2nd incident in a few weeks where a bad guy with body armor defeated a good guy with a gun. It should not be very hard for everyone to come together and immediately ban the sale and possession of body armor. It won’t solve our problem but it’s a baby step forward in avoiding mass shootings in a time where we continue to either do nothing or take steps backwards.

Armed guards aren’t the answer. As a society, we need to value an individual’s right not to get shot more than we do their right to own a gun. That is the only answer.

I hope you are wrong but we will all find out in in a few more weeks. I would love an epic final showdown between these two. Lalo isn’t in BB except for a mention so they can go many ways with the storyline. I don’t believe that he told anyone from the cartel what he’s up to. Only Hector knows what he’s doing and it appears Lalo is waiting to get his proof before sharing his plan with Eladio. It would be easy for Fring to make him disappear and nobody from the cartel to ever know the wiser. He just needs to secure Lalo’s camcorder.

I got so absorbed in the quest for answers on the Saul/Jimmy metamorphosis, what happens to Kim, and how Gene Takovic and the rest of the BB timeline intersects that I overlooked at how amazing the coming collision between Lalo and Fring is going to be. These are such incredibly driven and detailed bad guys that will literally go to any length to not lose. Throw Mike Ermantraut in the middle of these two and it’s going to be amazing TV to watch. It won’t surprise if it becomes the dominant story at the end.

What else can I say. Fucking fantastic
