Bibi on 60 minutes last night trying his best BS to convince USA that everything is according to plan and social media is to blame for all the bad PR he's been getting. I read it as a desperate effort to pressure Trump not to TACO this week.

That was on the heels of the Slush Fund scandal in late 60's. Both teams then were approaching where we are now. Michigan AD Canham, was rumored to be the one who blew the whistle.

Yessir! And we look to be on a sustainable path. Compare to Hoosiers and their Faustian football coach.

Yeah 15 is a lot, but it's 2 good skating teams that are fun to watch. I'd rather have this than those dreadful clutch and hold and neutral zone trap ones where no body is skating.

I get that Democratic voters are tired of establishment types, but this guy is an embarrassment and unqualified for the nomination.
We're gonna be stuck with Susan Collins forever.
Maybe he's learned his lesson?

"Safety was identified as a need for Chicago throughout the predraft process, but the mock draft exercises all said Thieneman would be off the board by pick No. 25. The board fell perfectly for GM Ryan Poles & Co. as Thieneman is the type of versatile playmaker that the Bears so badly needed. Adding Thieneman next to newcomer Coby Bryant gives the Bears the type of enforcers at safety who were previously missing from the team. The Super Bowl aspirations in Chicago should be real with the improved safety duo."
Per ESPN. Wannstedt rated him top 10 in draft.

It's recently dawned on me that commercials for individual gasoline brands have all but disappeared except some ETOH pimping on BTN. One might conclude that they are not competing with each other anymore. Why should they with such a powerful monopoly? There's plenty of $$$ to go around. Industry messages about responsible development seem to be all we get. Folks rail against Big Pharma and rightly so, but the oil lobby is still king and getting stronger with this Iran cluster. Just sayin'
