Re: To the extent it comes up: Trump crap post-WH years
Yeah so how did a juror get on there whose sole news source is owned by the defendant? Deal made between the legal teams? Prosecution could have been out of strikes (that isn't the word, so we'll never know on this board) The only thing that makes sense to me is that the next jurors on the list wer...

Re: 2023-2024 NHL Season
Apparently the deposits were only a hundred bucks a seat. And they haven’t announced prices for the actual season tickets yet.
Utahns are desperate for national attention. This place went crazy when a Hard Rock Café opened. So I think this’ll be a huge deal for a while.

They needed for it be a western locale. Detroit or Columbus would have pitched a fit about the added travel of a shift back to the western conference.

My concern all along has been that SLC is just too small to support an NHL or MLB team. But apparently our population is really close to the population of Denver when the Rockies started and the Avalanche moved in. I'm certainly not going to claim that we deserve a team, certainly not more than Queb...

Hopefully the feds will investigate everyone Porter dealt with. You know he's not the only one to take a dive to help someone win a bet. (But it...

I remember that one, now that you mention it.
He was not a pitcher you'd expect to hit a homer. He only had 2 HRs in 600+ PAs before the AL adopted the DH.
