  1. Are you telling me that a $2.4k hospital bill that I recently received for a 45 minute visit is the fault of the insurance companies?
  2. Section 308- choice of seat in row 9 or 10.
  3. Cut done, now on waivers
  4. RICO indictments for a crude trading scheme? Really stretching the definitions of an "organization"
  5. This is discussed above and Elliott's letter coming on the heels of the announced CEO succession plan prompted this move. The merger with DISH was discussed a long time ago, but shot down in a different operating environment. I'm guessing it will be an easier road now that both satellite co's are struggling to hold on to subscribers.
  6. This probably best belongs in this thread. I bet very few of you heard about this scandalous slur. Why is that?
  7. Thanks for the text book explanations again, which don't explain why the repo market interest rates spiked 250 basis points above the Fed's target rates. Could it be that the market can operate independently of central banks and that real life interest rates are affected more by the markets?
  8. That's why I think that the waivers are dangerous in the first place. If they exist in federal law, then you can make an argument that the waiver can be denied. It's perfectly clear that CA's state requirements are defacto federal laws, which flies in the face of federal regulations
  9. I'm not up on the exact language of the EPA statutes, but why would CA need a waiver if they could set their own policy in the first place?
  10. Good news for DTV fans, AT&T apparently put up a for sale sign for the satellite unit.
  11. But not the discount window, which Fed uses to control interest rates. Again, by going into the weeds, you ignore the forest where you think that Fed unilaterally controls interest rates.
  12. So essentially, it's not a problem for Trump to use Federal resources to dig up dirt on a political opponent? 99% of the people used common sense profiling when first hearing this story. Just like the "workplace dispute" at Fort Hood in 2009.
  13. "Now" more important? How the hell do you think the majority of the market gets liquidity? Does Fidelity have access to the Fed window?
  14. Was Bolton a federal employee when he allegedly didn't follow the alleged request from Trump & Co to push Ukrainians to dig up dirt on Biden? Do you think it's legal or ethical for Trump to instruct his personal attorney to press Ukraine to dig up dirt on Biden? What was the quid pro quo?
  15. So Bolton was fired for not going along with a plan to use Federal govt resources to dig up dirt on a political opponent using a foreign govt as the resource?
  16. The criticism is warranted only for the opening drive, where he was overaggressive in attacking the wrong gap. He settled down after that, and only had 1-2 bad running plays for the duration.
  17. If always means once a decade, then I agree with you
  18. Interesting is the operative word for an outfit that isn't reliant on the market to set interest rates or that QE unwinding will be painless because it's just an accounting entry on the banks' balance sheets (according to some)
  19. Remember the wayward post from an idiot on FB that claimed DoD ordered the entire L3 or Moog inventory a few months back?
  20. For an old man with limited mobility, Eli looked decent on Sunday. Look at how many drops he had in the first half. I think it would be a different game if Shepard & Tate were on the roster. They'd be stupid not to trade Eli to Steelers or Jets.
  21. Far from me to defend BADOL, but his take on Star is spot on so far this year. He gets neutralized far too easy. On one egregious play he got pushed back so badly it looked like he was wearing sneakers on ice. I think that teams are realizing that he doesn't need a double team, which spells bad news for Oliver. That doesn't mean that the obvious response is that Bills should never have traded Dareus. Looking at Jags game tape reveals the bad-habit Marcel whose performance doesn't look too much different from Star's, and you can't discount Star's positive influence in the locker room culture vs Marcel's. I also wouldn't discount McD looking at the practice squad to improve the interior line and for Star to develop a season ending injury. Bills can cut ties with him after the season with a post-June designation and walk away from the contract after paying all his guarantees through this year. He can also agree to the paycut similar to the one Dareus took to stay with Jags this year.
  22. Eli wasn't the problem.
  23. This is not an endorsement for the Jaylen trade, but Levi is being totally exposed this year. He's a bottom tier starting CB and nowhere near a Top 30 corner.
  24. Scott Van Pelt show after the game. Clark didn't hold back at all. Basically called out Baker's suckitude
  25. Wow, Ryan Clark just destroyed Baker with his spot on analysis on SVP
