No, I'm talking more EFFICIENT farming that doesn't rely on massive subsidies. https://cropwatch.unl.edu/2019/taking-closer-look-most-efficient-farms

If I had to give a list of five underrated pizzerias in the Buffalo area .... This is tough and I've been thinking ... Zahz pizzeria Rocco's Wood fired pizzeria Carbones Abott pizza Johnnys

Party above country + Trump above all.

I was told a few days ago by my friend who works in the league that their is a team that wanted Ray Davis and were going to make him their starting back but did not want to pick him until the 5th or late 4th and then Buffalo took him. Then they were questioning if they should have just taken him in the third. Apparently the people pulling for him in the room lost out to the other voices based on the position they ended up taking. They didn't think RB should be taken as high as the third in this draft. Seems like they are regretting it is what I was told.

If everyone was a "purist", we as a species would probably still be wandering naked on the plains of Africa grubbing and living on fruit, nuts, roots, grubs, insects, and the occasional not too overripe animal carcass. Maybe I misunderstood or misread the article, but I thought that the tech would depend upon a sensor in the ball that would record precisely where the ball landed as well as an electronic line-to-gain. That would be similar to what they use in tennis matches. I think a horn signaling the clock expiration is a really such a simple fix that it's surprising that it doesn't come up every time there's one of those controversial plays.

I agree with all your comments. Especially the replay official in the booth used by the UFL today.

Of course McCaffrey is more valuable. No one's disputing that. I was one of the main ones advocating trading for CMC.

Gee could have just listened to Pearl Jam 30 years ago.. But everyone hung them out to dry and none of the other big bands/artists in any genre stood with them.

I understand what you mean about Allen & Knox, but Edmunds was a talented player in college.

We don't operate in a zero-sum game. We can do more than one thing at once. Our immigration system is broken. It takes thousands of dollars and YEARS to immigrate. That is unacceptable. If we want to compete with China, we need more workers, more families, and so forth. The world birth rates are all declining, and so it will fall on immigration to help us keep up. Other countries are having the same exact problem as us, albeit with different ethnic groups. Millions across the globe want a better life. Who are we to deny them? So, that is what this "dumb sh!t pandering ret@rded leftist" believes. Yes, our immigration system needs reform, but mass witch hunts and round ups are completely unacceptable means of doing it.

The Players' Agreement does not allow them to have OTAs for the whole week. They did them for a couple days this week and they'll do it again next week. Every other team in the league does the same.

Agreed. It's a decent compromise bill, and will improve the situation at the border (and in our cities receiving these immigrants). It's not perfection. It is called governing. And nothing in the bill would stop Trump, if lawfully elected, from doing the so-called "mass deportations" discussed in the other thread. Trump's opposition is about the election, not about policy.

Here's the official ICE numbers for the fiscal year that ended September 30, 2023: This year, Enforcement and Removal Operations (ERO) nearly doubled immigration enforcement arrests and increased removals for those with no legal basis to remain in the country from the totals cited in last year’s report. ICE ERO’s 142,580 removals and 62,545 Title 42 expulsions to more than 170 countries worldwide in Fiscal Year 2023 reflect increased capacity and agreements to conduct removals and returns – particularly after the lifting of the Title 42 public health emergency on May 12. As a reference point, Obama's ICE Director implemented prosecutorial discretion saying that ICE lacked the capacity to execute more than 400,000 removals per year. We don't need to do any "round ups" or build "concentration camps" to raise the number of removals by almost 200%. And obviously more resources could allow for more than 400,000 deportations, still done in an orderly fashion that is respectful of due process and the law.

The sounds are coming back again? I guess that’s good news if you like what you hear. 🤷‍♂️

I've been thinking recently that we should make more albums for dogs (love 'em), like this jam that you can only hear at 20k or higher.

Absolutely. My point was that it seems that NO GM, including Beane, had a third round grade on him. There must reasons why NO GM took him in the third or fourth rounds, and I doubt every GM's reason was lack of positional flexibility. So, that means he has some limitations that at least some GMs saw, including Beane. That makes me think that I'm being overly optimistic to think he's a rookie starter. We'll see.

Xavier will be Christian Watson 2.0.

Now we know why the Mom's don't focus on this - this happens every day and it would get in the way of their three ways.
