  1. I assume everything is closed on Christmas, hence 363 days. Christmas and Thanksgiving, in retail, were always off-limits. I assume Christmas still is.
  2. No, not joking. I'm old enough to remember a time when stores being closed on Sunday was the norm, holidays were not even a question. And while I am sure Chef Jim is correct, many appreciate the chance to earn extra money, I would be willing to bet as many would prefer to be home with their families, but don't get to make that choice. And if nobody was open on Thanksgiving, you could do the same business on Friday morning. Jim, you really can't see the difference between Wal-Mart/Target etc and the emergency room of a hospital? I will assume you framed this as an SJW issue, to make some other point. But it doesn't really have anything to do with social justice. Its just decency.
  3. If those are my only choices, Zay if it is a PPR league.
  4. Hospitals are a different category than retail outlet. Its' not like people can't shop the other 363 days of the year.
  5. Best concert: Ray Charles at the Blue Note Cafe Worst concert: too many to pick just one...Styx? Bucket list: gotta be the Beatles, as predictable as that is. Wish I could have seen: the Rolling Stones during the Mick Taylor era.
  6. It's impossible to cover a Trump press briefing without pushing propaganda.
  7. Ha ha....when I wen t to accept the trade, the offer was rescinded...I knew it was too good to be true.
  8. Sorry...I meant Jimmy Haslam. Not sure what I was thinking there....
  9. Only thing about Harbaugh (John) is I wonder how much control he would want over his next team. No doubt, he would be one of the very top candidates available...but could he co-exist with guys like Jerry Jones, Victor Kiam or John Elway? I could see Seattle being his landing place.

  11. The bass/drums on "Everybody's Got Something to Hide..." are stellar, in the new mix.
  12. I am about to be 5-4 in my league, trying to hold onto a playoff spot. The #1 team made me this offer: I get Josh Gordon (Patrots) and Joe Mixon (Bengals) for Mike Evans (Tampa Bay) As it is now, my team strength is WR (Evans, Robert Woods, Tyler Boyd, Mohammed Sanu and DeMarious Thomas. My weakness is runing back...beyond Ezekial Elliot, I have mostly "junk"... Chris Ivory, Duke Johnson, Jamal Williams, Giovani Bernard. I am inclined to want to make the trade, as much as I love Mike Williams. Is Mixon worth whatever I lose in dropping down from Evans to Gordon? I think Gordon is really talented, but I just never trust any player, other than Brady and Gronk, in the Pats offense...they tend to be "all or nothing" type starts. What would you do?
  13. As it stands right now, Zay is the only WR on this team I would want to bring back next season. Bills fans are pretty quick to write players off. It is the upshot of so much losing. We see rookies coming in and dazzling NFL fans, in other cities, and we wonder why our guys can never do that. People here were ready to declare Edmunds a bust, after two games...and how about Matt Milano? Everybody loves him now...Aaron Williams was a whipping boy a few years ago, before becoming a fan favorite. It may be that bad teams take longer to develop young talent.
  14. Think about it, why would another team want to take on that salary? I don't think Clay is going.
  15. I still think he is human garbage, and I think he is a weak, and cowardly. I guess I am just not as evolved as some of you...
  16. Seriously? They charge an extra $100 to get the games in HD? That is absurd!
  17. This guy just retired, for health reasons..I suspect he makes a comeback. Damn fine songwriter, and great live performer.
