Talbot needed the win. He wasn't great on the second Caps goal - probably screened but if he's in better position it's still a stop. But was good otherwise.

Either Mr Proctor or Mr Gamble.

so...Kasper was hatched? 🙃

I think Warde would be out there working - if they are letting him. I think the question is does he even have sanction to do anything or has he be been told to tread water until Grasso and the regents get their postmortem report from their investigators and they decide if he stays.

IDK, McLellan can preach 'game management' all he wants, doesn't seem to work. When the wings take their foot off the offensive pedal they give up too many goals.

JB seems to want Ivey to be a 3 & D guy but the 3's have been missing the last few of games.

I've occasionally seen Elmer do a nice job of just surrounding rushing wingers at center ice and pinching them off. It's another thing where we'd like to see more. That's the thing with Elmer - he's shown he can do a number of things, he just has to do more of them all.

well, here's hoping you aren't patient Alpha in the newest scourge.

we still have no idea if the AD is staying.

In case anyone still wonder why Dems lose elections....

Not sure how good some of the consumer tests out there are. My son and his kid came down with the same flu at the same time, their home tests that told them they had two different flus.- Possible, but very unlikely.

36 games in and the Atlantic conference leader is 2pt away from being out of the wildcard. NHL to Pete Rozelle "Hold my beer."

Unfortunately enough, even Reagan isn't the GOP 'Reagan' anymore.

It would have been interesting to see where Hillary would have governed had she been elected and how that would have changed the 'Clinton' legacy. My impression was that she was a more committed liberal than Bill ever was but talk is cheap, we don't know what she actually would have done with the office.

yup - this years flu vaccine missed a variant that was developing in the Souther Hemisphere but which is apparently now the dominant strain everywhere. I read recently that there has been quite a bit of progress in using mRNA methods for producing flu vaccine, which would allow the vaccines to be brought to the public on a much shorter time scale, i.e., before the virus has a chance to mutate as much - but of course the chances of this CDC/FDA fast tracking that tech is probably zero.

I'll say two things in Duren's defense: He's been durable, and he's only a month past his 22nd birthday. Well, maybe three - the year spent playing for Monty Williams was probably a waste of development time.

Good Dad 101. A big lesson the average modern helicopter parent could work on is that best way to have your child not be fearful about things is for you not to act like they should be.

HaHa. Those humming birds are mean little critters though. You should watch them run off interlopers near their feeders. Those Tyrannosaurus Rex genes abide.

here is the link to the rest of it. 'https://news.gallup.com/poll/699311/economic-confidence-slips-holiday-spending-plans-plummet.aspx If you are the party in power you should be at about defcon2 about now. Jobs and the cost of living are two of the few things that even Trump can't lie his was past. Everybody shops. Everybody knows when their kids or neighbors are getting laid off. UE is up by 10% and 2.7 year over years inflation is still well above the noticeable level.

Not much has changed wrt who gets the short end of the economic stick. The recent increase in the unemployment had fallen mostly on black men. The differential between white and black male unemployment which had fallen to 2%, is back up to 4%. In absolute terms, black working age male unemployment it up to 6.7%, while it's less than half of that for whites at 3%. https://www.axios.com/newsletters/axios-macro-9b19ff90-dce1-11f0-a9cf-f50b1e3ce38b.html?utm_source=newsletter&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=newsletter_axiosmacro&stream=business

damn - didn't think of that one. I always remember that Bill Skowron was 'Moose' because a kid I was in grade school with was also a Skowron and since he was a pretty big kid he got nicknamed "Moose" as well.

LOL - "highest moral character/role model" left the building a long time ago in major college sports. What they'll actually settle for is: 'will keep us out of the tabloids for at least a year or two before anything catches up.'

Yup- People working in pairs are always safer. That's true for everything from maintenance guys working in a plant to pilots working in a cockpit.

0.5% So 201 for every 200 sold last month. At rate there might actually be good market in year or two.

Exactly. Orwell already gave us the word for this: Doublespeak. Straight out of the BigBrother playbook.
