  1. One interesting discussion point is the idea the Special Master would allow the government to have the tapes rather then mark them as privileged. As Trump's lawyer, they *could* be attorney/client privilege. Saw one commentator speculated it could be this specific conversation (reportedly there are many tapes) is not privileged because of criminality involved, or that the Trump side leaked it preemptively thinking it might get out there. if thats the case I'd assume Trump's side of the conversation is sufficiently non-detailed enough that they will say "see, nothing to see".
  2. Reported everywhere now. well everywhere except FOX
  3. I think I posted earlier that the Arbitrator has to choose either the Team offer of the Player offer. I was wrong. The arb can make any decision he's deems appropriate which might be either of the offers or one he comes up with himself. So there you have it. I was wrong.
  4. Wouldn’t protective shields be one obvious answer?
  5. I wonder if the Jets would choose 1 or 2 years. The idea of 1 year would be to add leverage to a trade. But other teams will want to speak with the player first to ensure he'd sign. Its possible the agent's strategy is to not sign with anyone (unless the coincidence of a trade to the team he wants happened) and go to free agency. He could put the word out that Trouba will not sign with anyone, hamstringing the Jets' ability to trade him. In that case, Jets might choose 2 years to maximize what they get out of him. They might have to trade him at the deadline to get maximum benefit (a team acquiring at the deadline would be more focused on short term success).
  6. According to Jerry Lawler, Howard Finkel is in poor health and might have suffered a stroke. The greatest ring announcer of all time.
  7. thats odd wording. “Was scheduled to start” could mean “it started” or it could mean “but it hasn’t started yet” (for some reason).
  8. I believe the story included quotes from the police who stated the victim had been assaulted by Flip Flop before being prevented from leaving. Victim declined to press charged and both men were allowed to leave. So as far as whether the victim did something that would make Flip Flop's racist and illegal actions justified, from available information, that doesnt seem to be the case. I dont think being an illegal immigrant is even something one can make a "citizen's arrest" over lol
  9. Sadly, there are many in Winnipeg who applaud him. I dont recall the last radio ratings but when I used to listen to morning radio it was always Ace. Always a "feel good" show, not lame shock jock stuff.
  10. USS Discovery is newer than USS Enterprise and contains an experimental spore drive.
  11. $7.99 (US I presume) per month
  12. Some differences but looks like a modern update. I like it (and I hate Disxocery, the ship not the show)
  13. America needs November to do there way. Dems won house and senate and its over for trump and the long national nightmare.
  14. That’s only one of the very good reasons. And we’ve discussions several do you know that’s not the only one. Its also a matter of perspective as to what is considered an inconvenience and to how many it applies. One hour in the morning. One hour in the evening. Monday to Friday. It’s not equilibrium to shutting down the intersection to traffic.
  15. London Ontario
  16. Some are calling for the translator to be subpoena’ed. Recall in their previous meeting trump opted to use Puntin’s translator....hmmmm
  17. I bet the pitch was trump saying well invite the SOB here and let’s get some blackmail material on HIM!
  18. Dems Winning the House is a speed bump for trump. Winning the senate is a brick wall. If they do, all the talk immediately will be impeachment.
  19. If there is value in keeping the employee then the workplace may have a moral duty to provide sensitivity training. Or at least it would be very kind of them. It as Wheeler has worn out his welcome they didn’t consider him valuable enough. But I do hope they considered bringing in Rainbow Resource to speak with the rest of the employees. I’m sure there are some very close to wheeler that may have conflicted feelings and getting some insight could help them (and the company)
  20. Keeping it closed doesn’t change that. But if you’re someone who feels unsafe crossing underground at night you certainly would feel safer crossing at street level. Another topic:
  21. I think the implication is the campaign strategist infiltrated Bernie's campaign without his knowledge and this allowed the staffer, Russia and Manafort to conspire on that front in regards to election meddling. Pretty crazy though...
  22. So whats the consensus on Lowry deal? Good value? I cant recall what the predictions were...
