What's TDS?
-
No, I am not surprised.
-
No doubt things are different now, but he made the Ohio comment in 2017.
-
It got me for a second too, but then I realized it said ankleS and I could not see how he would have broken both of them.
-
I think the tough part for me would be writing bullets for somebody who doesn't understand my tasks, the context of my tasks or how long it takes to do them.

Some of us do care, but you are right that it's best to keep that discussion out of this particular thread. I mean If you are deep into the investment world, you are pretty much guaranteed to be investing in something somewhere that is unclean, immoral, unethical or against your ideology. We kind of have to ignore it in this thread.

In a way, I was agreeing with you. I was saying that the book was not a white washing of Cobb's reputation.
-
After reading Leershen's book, I still didn't get the feeling Cobb was a great guy. He was portrayed as less racist than previously though, but he did beat up a crippled fan and pushed an old woman down some stairs.
-
One thing that Cobb never did (as far as we know) was have sex with a minor as a 30 something adult. Sadly, Rose's excuse was that sex with a 16-year old was legal in Ohio at the time. Recent players have been banned from the game for that sort of thing.
-
He did get accused of gambling on games in 1919 though and they were credible accusations from another player. I wasn't sure whether 1776 was referring to that or his general character.

It's just that one store that has lower prices for everything all the time. The quality is of food is fine. The employees are great. The downside is it's really crowded, but the total cost is at least 30% less than any other market in the area.
-
I got them for $4.99 Demoulas Market Basket. That's a big jump over last week's $3.49.
-
I agree he should not be let back into the game, but the hypocisy really dampens the message.
-
I understand the difference, but the more MLB encourages gambling, the more likely it is that the gamblng will spill over to players betting on games they are playing in. When you turn the entire sport into a mechanism for gambling, I think it will eventually lead to the outcome we don't want.
-
MLB put the whole integrity of the sport on the line by partnering with gambling organizations after forbidding any involvement for 100 years. I think that's even worse than what Rose did.
-
I have always been in full agreement that Rose deserved to be banned from baseball. However, MLBs partnership with gambling organizations makes it hard for me to care anymore.
-
Assuming WSJ is the same way it was a few years ago, I would say that the editorial pages are the same as Fox News, but the news pages are nothing like Fox News. They are conservative (as you'd expect from that kind of paper), but informative and fair.
-
MAGAs don't understand the difference between fear and respect.

I've had a nerve problem in my lower leg for two years, It was originally believed to be sciatica, but an MRI revealed it's not my back. They've also ruled out all the serious known nerve issues like Parkinsons and MS. My theory is the nerve gets pinched either at my knee or foot and I get flareups.
-
It needs to be somebody new. None of the old guard in either party are going to unify people. Seth Moulton is interesting.
-
The so called charming Vermont towns are more yuppy than hippy, but I still love it. It is such a beautiful state and the people are very laid back. New Hampshire is closer to me, but Vermont is nicer.
-
The compromising videos must be doozies.
-
I don't like to hear about nerve issues. There is often a lot of uncertainty in diagnosis and repair.
-
Yeah, I am pretty sure Perez is making the team and will play frequently now that Vierling is not going to be available for opening day.
-
Probably about a third of the country will love this. It's why they voted for him three times.
