    I think it was the Freep that reported this weekend that Consumers Power is losing $500K/day ( a mere $180M annually) keeping Trump's coal plant open, and that's AFTER the value of what power has been generated is put against the losses.

    I'd estimate them as approximately equal to the odds the Tigers offer more money than the Mets, Yankees or Red Sox. 🤔

    large number fallacies. Small proportions of huge numbers (city populations) are still big numbers.

    I think you are correct. You are not in any way supporting the company at this point as long as you don't buy more shares and make a contribution (even if minuscule) to bidding up the price. Resolve to yourself to tithe (or whatever part) the rest of your profits on it to some good cause and let the man contribute to some good in the world he probably wouldn't.

    The second line for sure. Further down, I'm fine with a Ras/Soderblom/VanRiemsdyk line doing nothing but checking hard and being hard to play against. And is seems for some reason playing with Soderblom brings out a little more physical in Rasmussen - or maybe the line assignment is just coincidental with McLellan letting him know he's on a short leash if he doesn't play harder.

    pretty much. He's probably right about keeping him this year being worth more than any trade option, but getting him resigned is a low probability outcome. It's not a matter of 'creativity', it's a matter of total dollars. Every accountant can figure the net present value of even a 'creative' offer.

    I'd ding Hamonic just for the one really terrible outlet pass he attempted that went for an icing when the Wings needed a change.

    They were pretty terrible. And it wasn't just short leads, it was every aspect.

    they've banked 6 of 10 possible point on the the 5 game west coast trip - which are usually disasters for eastern teams. They get a day off to recoup and it's just a short trip to Vegas.

    👍

    and you don't care about the OTL point going to a team from the other conference.

    hate shootouts

    how many guys can fall down in one OT shift?

    always irritating when a goalie plays better against you than he did for you.

    They are slowly nationalizing more bits of income - not the least being luxury tax transfer! But I don't like the whole 6yr/arb process. Players should be able to go to market much sooner but teams should have the right/option to match offers.

    I guess they are not necessarily great to live in or maintain, but there are a ton of the most beautiful stone houses in the Pittsburgh environs.

    Well, somebody's 1B.

    So are we all up for bringing Dombrowski back to replace Harris? 😉

    It possible that managing a mentally run down clubhouse is just not one of Hinch's strengths. He is the ultimate 'steady Eddie" guy, but maybe that is not an approach that finds way to recharge a team in the mental doldrums. He could probably also give his regulars more rest, I think Greene and Tork both played too many games. I'm with Sparky on that score.

    can't you delete your old file uploads? Hmm - looks like we can't. I wonder if that is tied up with the limit on how long we can delete/edit posts. I'm pretty sure in one of the earlier versions of the board you could delete old attachments - but that was probably when there was no time limit on editing old posts.

    Bichette was gimpy and could only run the bases station to station. In that particular circumstance I don't think it was a bad move. OTOH, I didn't like the bunt after the Vlad double.

    and the clock starts on the 5 days to FA declarations.

    I think the Jay could have turned 2 in the top of the 10th when the play came home, but it didn't matter.

    SO is downstairs, I'm upstairs, she is 20 seconds ahead. We have fiber - go figure.

    same reason he ended up on 1st after a double last night.
