re: So about that 3 point review... - C on 6/19/13 at 12:58 pmI think it's treated as a normal stoppage in play and they are allowed to substitute. But the spurs were happy to just go. Refs were horrible at the end on both sides so who knows. ...
re: Tesla Battery Swap Demo Thursday. - C on 6/19/13 at 10:38 amI think that may put tesla out of business if they have a universal battery replacement between the majors. Does tesla really produce a better car or are they just a first mover in a niche market?...
re: Democrats defy Issa and release IRS transcripts - C on 6/19/13 at 8:15 am[quote]i'm admitting that both sides are slipping political groups into the tax exempt status.[/quote]
Which is why the IRS can't wake up one day and say "this must stop. Lets focus on the republicans groups only."...
re: IRS workers % numbers with Democrats -vs- Republicans - C on 6/19/13 at 8:07 am[quote]Am I alone in thinking some of these groups flat out didn't deserve their tax exempt status and that the IRS was actually trying to do their job[/quote]
But wouldn't they be on the lookout for liberal agencies as well? ...
re: IRS workers % numbers with Democrats -vs- Republicans - C on 6/19/13 at 7:05 amI think most are using political donation numbers which is probably fiarly accurate. But no the govt probably isn't keeping track of which hire is a republican and which is a democrat. I'm sure minority and women hiring practices probably skew the numbers a bit and where the offices are located prob...

Is this the recall the govt. wanted but Chrysler refused to do it for several days?[/quote]
Yeah pretty interesting. Basically strong arming a company into admitting fault when they say their product is safe. This is why people who can see the forest from the trees don't trust anything f...
re: Coach Mainieri's comments after the game - C on 6/17/13 at 1:45 pm[quote]Why not look at another pitch[/quote]
He was looking to get a runner to third and a big inning. 2-0 count is a big advantage for the hitter. I don't know if anyone has his season splits on 2-0 but I bet it's well over 400. ...
re: Coach Mainieri's comments after the game - C on 6/17/13 at 1:40 pm[quote]How is Maineiri unaware UCLA's third baseman in on the line? [/quote]
He never said he didn't. You think he's watching 9 players on every pitch? He didn't say "wow I was surprised the 3rd baseman was playing the line in that situation because I told ralph to hit the ball down the 3rd basel...
re: Coach Mainieri's comments after the game - C on 6/17/13 at 1:35 pm[quote]for his team leading 14th of the year. Crazy how that works huh[/quote]
He had 84 hits. 20 extrabase hits. 46 RBIs. Hell Bregman has grounded into 8 DP. Do you want to take the bat out of his hands too? ...
re: Coach Mainieri's comments after the game - C on 6/17/13 at 1:27 pm[quote]with the possible exception of Maineiri knew UCLA was guarding the lines[/quote]
where did he say he didn't think they would be guarding the lines? He just said he think the 3rd baseman was playing the line. I doubt he was watched much replay of the game by the time he gave his post game c...
re: Coach Mainieri's comments after the game - C on 6/17/13 at 1:19 pm[quote]Thats what he does[/quote]
He's batting 330 and has a +400 OBP. Saying "that's what he does" is a bull shite anomaly. He's one of the best hitters we got and to not trust him on a 2-0 count is stupid. Yeah shite happens. But it was the right play. A runner on 2nd with 1 out doesn't guarantee ...
re: Coach Mainieri's comments after the game - C on 6/17/13 at 1:12 pm[quote]CPM screwed the pooch.[/quote]
Yall are crazy. Hit and runs rarely go for a DP. It was just bad luck. You have someone at the plate batting 330, you let them hit if given the chance. Especially on a 2-0 count. Everything is in his favor. :insertcrazypillsgif:...
re: Prison Chaplains and separation of Church and State - C on 6/17/13 at 10:16 am[quote]It's their job to witness not the governments to pay for them to come in. [/quote]
The state sees a positive effect from the ministering. But I agree that it's probably not aligned with the current church and state separation. I'm not PC enough to care. If Aethiests are able to keep crimin...

re: WaPo report on U.S. surveillance architecture - C on 6/16/13 at 3:24 pmThanks. I'll read the whole thing, but I'm going to be interested in how many people have been sent to jail for violating our rights. Or are there no real penalties imbedded into the program to prevent abuse....
