  1. Those second NY area teams are like the diaspora of sports. LoL... Even the WhiteSox here hold a majority of fans in a hand full of Illinois and Indiana counties!
  2. Because they have a majority in at least one county. The Jets/Mets/Nets are teams that don't have a majority of fans in any county anywhere... Even their home stadium county! To put it in perspective... That's like the Bills NOT being the majority fan favorite in say Erie County, New York.
  3. Except Manhattan doesn't have limited goods & services. Manhattan basically has unlimited goods & services. 😏
  4. Aren't Jews like Jets, Mets, & Nets fans? They historically never had a majority in any place until 1948.
  5. You think Chicago is bad now? 😆 Just to put it into perspective. Gaza is 141 sq.miles. Chicago is 234 sq.miles. 16,000 people per square mile in Gaza. 12,000 in Chicago per square mile. Now... Imagine this. Holding the people in Chicago for 16 years with limited goods and services. And they share a border with Indiana which is basically Egypt🇪🇬 😆. You wanna live in Lake Forest, Illinois... OR Barrington... Have at it!
  6. Like New Orleans before Katrina. 8 feet below sea level and the levees 10 feet to low. Yeah... I agree... What the ***** were they thinking. At least with a natural disaster it doesn't have a birth rate as a ticking time bomb! The kids rushing the border now were born there trapped. /smdh...
  7. "...The attacks by Hamas follow one of the deadliest periods in the Israeli-occupied West Bank in nearly two decades. The violence has been driven by frequent Israeli military raids in Palestinian towns and cities, which Israel has said are a necessary response to a rising number of attacks by Palestinian militants on Israelis. ..." And the MAGA people get their panties in a twist over government.
  8. I read somewhere that they busted out and the Hamas commander told the people basically you got a gun, leave, this is chance at an historic day. Yikes! Boy, that was festering. "...Gaza is one of the most densely packed places in the world, an isolated coastal enclave of almost 2 million people crammed into 140 square miles. Governed by Hamas, the territory is largely cut off from the rest of the world by an Israeli blockade of Gaza’s land, air and sea dating back to 2007. Egypt controls Gaza’s southern border crossing, Rafah. Israel has placed heavy restrictions on the freedom of civilian movement and controls the importation of basic goods into the narrow coastal strip. ..." How could that have possibly been a plan? To keep 2 million people imprisoned for 16 years? Of all nations... Israel!
  9. Because it's a prison break.
  10. How long can you keep a fish in a wet hankie? 2 million people in a 140 Mike square area? 16 years is a long time. How could Israel NOT see this coming?
  11. I always stated: Boy if we ever win, us Bills fans are going to be so insufferable, I hope it doesn't irk me. LoL...
  12. Just got a little carried away! It slipped out of their hand... 😆
  13. Notice he's not touching his weeny? It's loaded with lead.😆🤣
  14. It was actually grape Flavor Aid NOT Kool-Aid used in Jonestown. 😉 To answer the OP... Judging from people who play it... Yes. Isn't this in Human Psychology 101? Like everything else...
  15. Cancer Claypool! Bring on the fodder!
  16. Gr8... They are looking for people to pay for an 8:30 am Sunday game. What a rip off. Why not make International Series National? I am not a big fan of my team possibly being jet lagged and losing a home game. Sorry... Hard pass, even if it's the Bills. I will be at work. Maybe I will listen to it on radio.
  17. Really? That never crossed my mind. 😏
  18. Add to that interesting stat: They dominated those undefeated teams!
  19. Cardinals very territorial. I had to put tape on the windows because they kept fighting with their reflections. Crazy noise, pecking...
  20. I think he means the Marie Antoinette treatment. 😆
  21. I guess there is this. Kinda like at the lock & dam when we switched to LEDs from vapor light... The savings were supposed to be astronomical! Yet... It seems like those bulbs are burning out faster than expected. NOTE: We did retrofit them into 60 year old light standards, etc... https://hbr.org/2021/06/the-dark-side-of-solar-power Summary. Solar energy is a rapidly growing market, which should be good news for the environment. Unfortunately there’s a catch. The replacement rate of solar panels is faster than expected and given the current very high recycling costs, there’s a real danger that all used panels will go straight to landfill (along with equally hard-to-recycle wind turbines). Regulators and industry players need to start improving the economics and scale of recycling capabilities before the avalanche of solar panels hits.
  22. My father had a solar panel put on the house back in 1980s. To just boost extra heat in winter. Pretty primitive. YET... Still working today. Takes edge off heating bill.
