But he could have blamed the railroads, so NBD.

I would say that, sure, it's entirely possible that not much else happens the rest of this offseason. Perhaps even probable, I don't know. But outside of a handful of teams, there really hasn't been a ton of activity for most teams at this point so I'm not sure it's accurate to suggest that they aren't trying to do things or that they are clearly done trying to improve at this point. The market is just kinda slow and will probably be that way until some of the bigger pieces come off the board.

At this point, since you are now in the business of adding meaning to comments that dont really say what you say they are saying, it seems clear that there isn't a whole lot of point continuing on this particular discussion. Have a nice day.

I interpret Fetterman's comments as advocating that the companies provide their employees seven days of sick leave. I dont see anything in there making a judgment about whether the negotiated deal should or shouldn't have been enforced

A real mystery...

What's weird is that the subtext of Fetterman's tweet is that the railroads and their shareholders have agency, they could do these things on their own (ie. without needing the unions or the government to compel them) and have chosen not to, and it is hard to understand for the average person why they can't figure out a way to make it work. It's a statement that literally everyone in this thread who has engaged on this discussion agrees with, and yet here we are jamming it all into our left-right ****show debate. Because that's what we do lol

Not really sure what you're driving at here... as we have discussed ad nauseum, reasonable people can agree with Fetterman's point while recognizing that, given two terrible binary choices (with one that is significantly worse in the macro), almost all would go with the less bad one. As you yourself admitted, President Ewsieg probably would have enforced the deal.

You didn't hear that from me.

Will it???

It'll land closer to 48%, fwiw

More: And, frankly, he's probably right. The rest of the GOP ticket statewide aside from Walker won

Warnock called winner by CNN

De Kalb just dropped... 92-8 Warnock. Those are Saddam numbers lol

There isn't gonna be a Senator Walker lol

Need to see more of Atlanta...

Gonna be an early night in Georgia

Arson Judge just lit Jon Heyman ablaze lol

Arson Judge about to light fire on the NL West haha

The starting pitching market is crazy

He's also buddies with Bryce, iirc

You do concede the point that a shutdown of freight rail traffic would have harmed a lot of workers in the broader economy, correct?

The market just seems slow more broadly as well and might pick up whenever the big names start coming off the board
