Apparently, what the hell is wrong with me is that I didn't bold the first sentence of the quote so that you would be more likely to notice it.

True, but the rule doesn't say you have to hire a minority candidate, just interview one. https://www.behindthesteelcurtain.com/2018/9/20/17877960/the-steelers-didnt-hire-mike-tomlin-because-of-the-rooney-rule-dan-rooney-nfl-roger-goodell-race-nfl He was slated for an interview because of the rule, so it seems clear that the rule did what it was supposed to do, at least in that case.

Sounds like we're the ones who shouldn't trust your recommendations. 😉

In fairness, he could bet against the Pats* and not throw the game, and he'd still be likely to win the bet. 😁

Thanks! The Eden Express and Live Free or Die are now on my reading list. The review mentioned Project Hail Mary by Andy Weir (the guy who wrote The Martian, the novel on which the Matt Damon movie was based). I didn't read The Martian but I loved the movie, so when a friend mentioned PHM and I saw that it was the same author, I decided to read it. What a fantastic book! His novel Randomize was good too. I also enjoyed the Colony Mars series and The Belt series by Gerald Kilby, and I'm currently about halfway through fast-paced Earthburst Saga by Craig Falconer.

So listen to your radio Most each and every night 'cause if you don't I'm sure you won't Get to feeling right.

I read a variety of stuff, from non-fiction to fiction of many genres. In non-fiction. I read science, "casual" Eastern philosophy, and occasional biographies. In fiction, I like hard sci-fi - the kind that obeys the laws of physics and doesn't rely on magic like transporters, warp speeds, and universal translators. Don't get me wrong - I'm a Trekkie and a Star Wars fan, but for reading material, I lean toward the hard stuff. Asimov and Vonnegut are my favorites, but I've been reading some great sci-fi from lesser-known authors too. I read Asimov's autobiography, I.Asimov, a few months ago. I'm not sure how that's escaped me for all these years, but I'm glad I found it. I don't read a lot of drama, but I recently read Exodus by Leon Uris. It's a novel about holocaust refugees. The plot and characters are made up, but the historical perspective is pretty accurate. I also like mysteries, psychological thrillers, and books with zany humor, like The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. Augie, you asked if people re-read books. I read the original trilogy in college. Then another book came out, so I reread the trilogy before reading the fourth book. Then a fifth book ... and you can see the pattern. When Douglas Adams died in 2001, I re-read the entire series. That's the only one I've read more than twice, but I can think of a handful of books that I've read a second time.

Great post, Shaw, and I agree overall. Regarding the quoted part, our D was decimated by injuries. Even some of the more capable backups were injured, leaving us with third-stringers to defend against the Chiefs' high-powered offense. I know it's supposed to be "next man up," but there's a reason the "next man" is a backup and not a starter. With a slightly better performance by our LBs and CBs, I think we'd be celebrating a victory this week.

He let Frazier save face. Everyone, including Frazier, knew he wouldn't be back.

Ah, yes. I remember the time I told my then-fiance, "I'm going to explore other options for a wife over the next few weeks, but if I don't find anyone better, then I'll marry you." She left that night and never returned, but I'm sure it was just a coincidence.

That's what she said ... to her lawyer.

Thanks. I missed the in-market part of that. But later it said, "A win would have good and bad consequences for fans; they might finally get access to in-market streaming services with single-game options for their favorite teams, and more outlets for watching out-of-market games than just NFL Sunday Ticket." That's the part that caught my eye.

I'd hate to have it disappear from local broadcast channels, but I love the idea of a Bills-only streaming service, as long as it gets ALL of the Bills games. I don't see how the local channels should be affected since those who live in their team's region wouldn't need the team's streaming package anyway.

I think this is viable. After he recovered from surgery last year, he became an unofficial DBs coach for the rest of the season, so he's shown an interest in coaching. And having read his wife's tweet, it seems like staying in the area would make their family happy. McD would hire him in an instant.

Spot on, as far as I'm concerned.
