Are there anymore? The Supreme Court is built to suppor tthe will of the right. The right portion of Congress is dominated by the Freedom Caucus who is only interested in a hard line agenda that the Supreme Court is built to sway towards. And the President has the full support of the Freedom Caucus. There has been a noticeable consolidation of power. It's even happening on the state level where incoming governors of the wrong party are being hogtied by legislative changes that reduce their authority moments before they take office. We're in the midst of a takeover. Book it.

I wish I could get back to where I believed this. The system is closed to us. We don't get to pick the candidates. They are chosen by a relative few power brokers based on their ability to raise money. The campaign finance system ensures that our voice is not the voice that is paid attention to. And gerrymandering assures that parties in power stay in power, and that divisive politics remain the rule, not the exception.

Wow. I'm in full agreement here. That doesn't happen often. Other than maybe the Jack on smack thing.

I think Sam is pretty negatively affected by teams that play heavy as well. It's the only criticism I have of him TBH.

What am I seeing here?

In my top 3 Coen bros. movies.

Why assume the worst? People leave jobs for non-nefarious reasons every day.

Only if I am included in the bourbon-y portions.

I think we’ll get away with it in the regular season but it will be very evident in the playoffs. There. I said it.

That is awesome.

Seems like quite a few seen-Billy-Joel-multiple-times people replying. Add me to the list. From my perspective there are two reasons to choose the concert over the game. 1. A chance to go with Mom is always a good reason, and 2. Billy Joel is damned near a sure thing for getting your entertainment money’s worth.

Great observation.

Really liked the pace in the first two periods. And really liked TTs game. Sam did a nice job playing set up guy from the wing. That might be a good role for him. Casey...... every once in awhile the kid shows some real flash. I hope it comes together soon. He’s hot the skills. Ill say it, Sobotka looked OK moved up in the lineup.

I'm not sure why you're trying to engage me. It wasn't my point being made.

I can't believe how many people haven't figured out Pi yet. He's insinuating that the kid is gonna jump ship.

Bailey is barely a good AHLer at this point. He's seeing 4th line duty all too often.

I’m going to guess that the idea of Casey on the ice against the opposing teams best offensive players scares PH as mich as it scares me.

That doesn’t help me...

And Ellie is still in the lineup....

Whatinthehell is a kizmet?

Drug addiction is an illness, no?

Mailing in has implications that weren't intended. Call it for lack of a better phrase.

That would be a home run. Not sure what it would take to get him, or what our cap implications would be though
