Re: CDC Info on COVID-19 (Corona virus)
As long as we’re posting these... My aunt died from from Covid a few weeks ago in Texas. She was 63, no pre-existing conditions. She was admitted to the hospital but seemed to be ok for a few days, then took a nosedive in roughly 48 hours. At work, two managers of ours got it and one was admitted t...

Re: Len Kasper taking White Sox radio job
That comment was related to the interpersonal relationship between on-air talent and their employer and personal reasons as to why/why not the talent stays or goes. Of course the product is the customer’s business. To that end, you or anyone else could stop consuming said product and prove that the...

Can any of the Iowans give me the tldr version of Reynold's political rise? I just don't get it. After reading her wikipedia page, it appears that she doesn't really have any actual education or career. Then in her 40s she got a couple dui arrests, became a treasurer for a podunk county, less than ...

Luckily on Tuesday the Governor again relayed her strong belief in Iowans to do the right thing. I think it's gonna stick this time.

Would this have been handled better at the federal/state level under Clinton? Yes, most assuredly. But the chuds who refuse to wear masks because Trump says they shouldn't would also refuse to wear masks because the mean libtard lady told them should I don't know.

Re: The Ricketts family sucks in all kinds of ways
So far I've been able to hold on to my love of the Cubs while divorcing from the reality of who owns the team through rationalizations like, "all the owners are more or less the same". I'm not sure how much longer I can do it. I'm a Rizzo fan, a Heyward fan, etc., I don't know that I'm a ...

He has to roll a 7 again to win. He's just trying to shave the dice now. But if he does win, it won't be easy. There is no easy path for him. And there wasn't last time, either.

It's become almost impossible to have real discussion in most places because it's a contest of who can blame the Republicans the hardest and most comprehensively, with no room to discuss other facets of how and why the disease is spreading. I spent last night chatting with a guy who claims this isn...

Anyone watching Game 7 right now? Contreras just doubled to make it 3-1. Yeah, I'm watching it and the quick hook on Hendricks still pisses me off. The bad call from the ump on a clear strike 3 before Maddon pulls Hendricks also pisses me off... We came so close to blowing this lead lol. I used to ...

Re: 2019-20 Offseason Rumors/General Chit-Chat
Apparently it stems from inactivity to not improve the team this offseason after they signed him to a huge extension. Basically seems like they paid for him, then closed up the pocketbooks and he feels disrespected that the team wasn't willing to continue to spend money or make impactful moves to i...

Re: Astros stole signs electronically in 2017
Literally nobody here is denying they cheated. The point that in a game rife with cheating at all times, especially this specific cheat, they just got busted on their particular method of cheating. It's faulty, IMO, to assume that their brand of stealing signal cheating was significantly more effec...
