The Swamp

No Pulisic? Seriously? I wouldn't be surprised if Dortmund asked to hang onto Pulisic for a little longer. I think they play Bayern Munich for the German Cup or something like that in the next couple of weeks. That's correct -- on Saturday. I wouldn't be surprised if he gets added to camp at some p...

Turns out she's fine. Probably went on a bender. The Irish, you know...

After the weekend I've had, have to say I'm jealous.

This is an interesting experiment by the Falcons. Wonder how long it will last or if it extends to other franchises?

OK didn't see that coming but that was fun. Spurs gonna Spur. Three Newcastle goals in 13 minutes while down a man.

Last 15 mins of this Spurs-Newcastle game should be fun with Newcastle down to 10 men.

Weird. Wonder if the situation is more serious than thought or they were just worried about that many people outside the gates?

Yeah, I won't be watching. TV didn't need more smarmy fucks especially with whiny, reedy voices.

Start of ManU-Bournemouth game delayed because of a suspicious package. About the most exciting thing to happen at Old Trafford all season.

They're certainly in better shape than the Lightning are without Bishop.

Would love to see a Venn diagram of "Grateful Dead" fans and Bernie Bros, the latter of which almost certainly think HRC is a sellout. Meanwhile...<cash register ringing>

PT Barnum was not wrong.

I think he'll be much better or much worse than that is my opinion.

Kay Felder (Oakland), who is like 5-foot-8 just had the second highest recorded vertical jump in NBA Draft Combine history. I think he's either going to be an unbelievable bust or a superstar. Don't see much in-between.

Don't rule out Bernie in the NBA MVP race.

Craft Beer Week in lexington. Lots of events. GOnna try to hit a couple up. Next saturday is almost assured to have zombie dust, but costs $35 to get in. Going to a locals only beer festival here tomorrow. It's pretty low-key, but usually a lot of fun as you get to meet all of the brewery owners ar...

My favorite casino downtown just added 10 craft beers taps to their video poker bar. This is more rare than you would think. So suffice to say it will remain my favorite casino.

Giff's kids might not be able to read or write but damn it they'll be safe from PERVERTS!

ETA: a link to the story. Otherwise that comment would seem kind of random and potentially offensive.

Weedlord Bonerhitler is a better name though.

Yeah, I see first hand the developments with solar here. Per capita we lead the country in solar energy production. Like I said I'm more curious about the smart grid technology. Everything I've ever read says that the major stumbling block to using wind or solar is that the energy can't be transport...

That was essentially a drop in the bucket. I get they had to spread it around a little, but looks like about 5 percent (roughly) of the entire stimulus. I'd be curious to learn 7 years later what that $11B investment in "smart grid" technology has achieved.

Abcabc is that young Turkish player, right?

I'm not sure why making the billions in investments necessary to upgrade the power grid wasn't part of the stimulus in 2008. That's the root of the whole problem. Once upgraded, then solar and wind power DO become much more viable as long-term solutions.

Would love to see a Venn diagram of Bernie Bros and DCFC fans in Detroit bitching about Gilbert/Gores trying to get an MLS team for Detroit. That's one argument I'll never understand: Them: "We don't want an MLS team because we like our fourth-tier club with passionate supporters." Me: &qu...

Arguably more impressive is that Wood didn't have the Tigers to hang 20Ks on.

Forgot Brighton might actually get promoted.

Newcastle fans get to make those fun trips to Brighton and Ipswich Town next season.

Could this cause a rush of super-delegates to Bernie?

No.

And if the U.S. takes the lead in wind, solar, geothermal, etc. then we will reap the windfall (jobs, economic boost via the stock market, etc.). If we let China, Korea, Japan or Germany et al do so then we will not benefit as much economically.

This is a fascinating story out of Texas. Could also go in the journalism is dead thread.

In the general he'll have the resources of the RNC (and their ground game experts) at his disposal though.

I refuse to believe this because it still snows in the winter.

That's gonna cost some pounds.

Or...not. (Read the update on same link.)

Got it. Yeah I don't think too many coaches are worked in a tizzy over "regular" transfers though I see now the data in the article covered all transfers not just grad transfers.

Like 150 of our 200 minutes are going to be transfers and 5 of the 6 were former top 100s who weren't ever going to pick La Salle out of HS. And for every one we get coming down to the mid-major level, there's another one who stays at the major level, which is why every f'ing kid tries it out initi...

George W. Bush and Brad Ausmus are the living embodiment of why having an Ivy League education doesn't necessarily make you smart.

Soros is a pretty shitty socialist considering he's worth billions.
