  1. My dad got shingles shot and covid booster around the same time a couple years ago and was a zombie at Thanksgiving. I may recommend spacing those two out if you can just based on that.
  2. They were letting the Title IX process play out. It is true, but that is a distortion. The school's Title IX department handled it, but the Athletic Department was separate until the hearing per the policies.
  3. Gotta give him or his people credit for at least realizing that pandering to midwestern union types was a successful 2016 strategy.
  4. I can't think of many scandals at my school on this front. There were some football players in the 2016 timeframe who were quickly booted from the team after an incident in this regard. A women's basketball coach in the 90's was fired after there were rumored sex parties involving players at her house. There's been a couple pervy faculty members, and the person who replaced bin Laden on the Most Wanted List was a graduate; not involved in sports, but a bad bad teacher.
  5. Yeah, but they can sell more luxury suites, which is almost always the reason for stadium upgrades/new stadiums.
  6. #NotALawyer but... Wouldn't the statement Mel put out last week be cause for termination on its own?
  7. I'm getting both next Friday. I really didn't want to wait on either. There's a lot of Rona going around now.
  8. I have an appointment to get mine next Friday (Flu too). Will let you know if this is just bluster or if there's anything in place that may keep CVS from jabbing me. Luckily, I can get to Georgia in about 45 minutes if I need to.
  9. Matt House is an MSU alum. Sean Lewis was on my short list when Purdue was looking last year and two games into his Colorado tenure, his stock has only gone way up.
  10. You thought major league scorekeepers were bad... I wouldn't use errors as a judge of minor league defense at all.
  11. Urban won't go well in this player empowerment, transfer portal era. As soon as he ran into a group in Jacksonville he couldn't control, it turned into a raging tire fire. He can't bully players into doing his own thing anymore. It would be a disaster.
  12. James Buchanan was the first gay president.
  13. If you go back and read the USA Today original story, a lot of the talking points in Tucker's screed were refuted in the original article.
  14. Maybe they were but once they found out they weren't #1 and moved on. By the time Eduardo spiked it, the need for pitching or the pieces traded weren't available.
  15. I went down current year fwar leaders. Isaac Paredes has spent a lot of time at 1b, 2b, 3b. Cody Bellenger has played 1b and cf depending on who is available. Ha sung Kim 2b/3b/ss. The aforementioned Betts. Nico Hoerner has played some ss this year. Corbin Carroll has spent a lot of time at all three outfield positions. Thairo Estrada plays all over. I could go on...
  16. Question: is Mookie Betts a utility player? Why is multiple position capability a perjorative?
  17. I found the policy, it is correct.
  18. Maybe the investigation wasn't exactly shining her in the best light? It is possible, and it the reports are basically her side of the story.
  19. The generous benefit-of-the-doubt attitude way to look at this is they were keeping it under wraps to protect Tracy as much as Tucker, and did act today because it went public, but did so because they know longer had to keep her protected. I could see what she would want to press the red button, given that her main witness died in the car crash earlier this year and she maybe saw the tide shifting.
  20. If it comes out that she is persuing relationships with people she is lining up speaking gigs with, Tracy wouldn't be the first social media influencer to go astray and jump the shark and rely on their following to help their martyr case. Big if, but that thought crossed my mind.
