GDT: Wheeling Nailers @ Cincinnati Cyclones 7:30pm EST
Weave replied to IKnowPhysics's topic in The Aud Club
Zweigle's need to be grilled until the entire casing is browned and crisp. Otherwise the casing is rubbery and disgusting IMO. As long as the casings are crisped up everywhere, Zweigle's is a solid dog. Grew up in Buffalo. Grew up on Sahlen's. After trying Hoffman's this Summer I have to admit, Sahlen's is a 3rd place dog in upstate NY. That is, assuming Zweigle's skins are fully crisped up. A Zweigle's with undercooked casing is catfish bait though. -
Dammit. I didn't know they replaced their wings. How do I dig in my heels now?

Not sure where to put this, so I'll put it here. What if George Bush was never elected President? Our system is going to continue to spiral downhill as long as win at all costs comes before good governance. Summary of the article... A death bed confession by a Republican strategist of the late 80's reveals that the front runner to win the '88 election was set up and framed. What troubles me most is that we, the electorate, have evolved since '88. We have evolved into an electorate that is willing to accept immoral behavior as long as it benefits our team. The most common comments regarding the election on the online version of my county's news all share the same message, "I plugged my nose and voted for Collins because it is more important that the Republicans keep control of the House". Last week a friend of mine voiced a similar sentiment about the need to make sure Collins gets re-elected. Never mind he's facing trial for Wire Fraud and Securities Fraud. And here's Collins comments to the media on election night. "I set a strategy, I think you'll see tonight that my strategy worked perfectly, it's about winning," Collins said. "Clearly, the media is not part of our strategy." We've re-elected a man who has no intention of being accountable. To anyone. In 1988 getting your picture taken on a yacht with a pretty young girl was enough to get you out of politics. Today, you can be accused of sexual assault by multiple women, have affairs with porn stars, or be under indictment for felonies, and have no political repercussions. I was never one that bought into the idea that we have lost our moral compass. That statement always felt like it was coming straight from the Jerry Falwell. Today, I think LTS is correct. We the people have lost our moral compass. I have never felt so much concern that we are nearing the end of the Great Experiment. So here it is, Wednesday. My House representative is on the minority side. He won't be on any committees. He's being investigated by the House Ethics committee. And he'll probably spend more time on his legal defense than he will on legislating. NY27 is going to be unrepresented for the next 2 years. But this is better than the other team getting a chance.

Hall of diluted fame. Meh to all of them.

StL traded away 3 honest NHL players to get ROR. Wouldn't surprise me if they added O'Reilly at the expense of the depth that served them so well. Shallow teams don't make playoffs very often.

Midterm Election Results 11/6/18

McMurray has requested a recount, but yeah, in all liklihood an indicted man is going to represent NY 27. I expected this, but I don’t understand it. -
8.9 x 14.8 x 9.1 (W x H x D)

These are the BICs I have. BIC America bookshelf speaker reviews
-
A few years back I bought a pair of BIC America bookshelfs based on really solid reviews. They have not disappointed hooked up to my ancient Kenwood set up. That's as close to audiophile as I get. And they aren't wireless. But they sound great to my concert damaged ears.

You underestimate my ability to string big words into a sentence without fully understanding their significance.
-
Comment based on limited knowledge and unlimited ignorance here, but I wouldn't think wireless/bluetooth is compatible with audiophile level speakers. Doesn't bluetooth compress data? I would think that would result in loss of fidelity.

Without taking any sort of look at stats, simple or advanced, a 30 yr old 2nd line center ar 4.5M for 3 more years doesn't sound onerous at all to me. Carter is def riskier.

Chris Collins Arrested by FBI
Weave replied to Eleven's topic in The Oval Office (Politics)'s Topics
Saving grace is, he was the Supervisor in Grand Island, which is no slouch in the household income department. I think he probably plays well in Amherst actually. My polling place was easily as busy as it is on a Presidential election year. Maybe the folks that don't take a shine to illegal activity among Congressmen are more motivated than I give credit for. Or, Trump has motivated the lemmings....... -
Chris Collins Arrested by FBI
Weave replied to Eleven's topic in The Oval Office (Politics)'s Topics
Noone out here believes McMurray when he says he's a pro gun guy. Democrat = gun grabber, regardless of what the individual politician says. Everyone out here links Collins with Trump. Collins was an early adopter of the Trump Train. They love him out here for it. Strangely enough, I've never got the anti-rich guy sense when it comes to politics out here. And icing on the cake, these folks vote party line across the board. -
Is there a 2nd line center worth having on either team? Even if for the rest of the season, or next. I'll take one of those please.

I live in a rural county in his district. He'll win this county in a landslide. It's going to take the residents of Clarence and Amherst to get him out of Congress. If I were betting on it, I'd bet he's re-elected, and found not guilty. Maybe it's just the pessimist in me. -
Doesn't seem like much of a challenge.

Not trying to jinx things but....could this team actually be good??

IMO they are a 2C away from being a playoff team. -
UPDATE: Sam Reinhart signs 2-year extension -- $3.65MM per year
Weave replied to dudacek's topic in The Aud Club
His history also flatlines at about 47 points/season. I'm not assuming more until he shows more. -

Weave replied to dudacek's topic in The Aud Club
1. 8 points is a typical year to year spread for any scorer. 2. He's still scoring at a rate that results in a points total within the spread of his last 3 years. -
Donald J Trump, your thoughts on his Presidency

Did Trump admit last night that the Russians stole the election for him? -

I don't think we need to trade him. We still need a stable of good, scoring wingers. And he is a good, scoring winger. And I do still expect that his game will mature and he'll be valuable in other ways. But he just may be a 50 point player. There is nothing wrong with that. Every team needs a few of them.
