Yeah I was wondering.

Also, Jared Brosset is almost impossible to follow from the beginning to the end of his sentences.

How do they not understand how the pumps at the lake work. They said they stayed up all night trying to figure out. You would have had to pump the water twice if you closed the gates.

Would those outlying pumps running with the gates open speed up the drainage process..?

Not closing the gates...

Because our city government is completely incompetent.

Brosset looks like he just had his mind blown.

Jason Williams is coming in hot because he's tying to defend his at-large seat this fall.

No you are just pumping water back into the lake for it to drain back into the canal. The whole point of those pumps is to drain the canal to avoid over topping when the gates are closed.

Becker is a corporate chimp. He's good at answering a question without ever answering a question. Reminds me of Veronica in Better Off Ted.

I have never seen Williams or Gray be this thorough or intelligent.

I'm kind of impressed. And then angry because if they have the mental capacity to do this, then why don't they use it?

Last game of the season, can't hold anything back now. Elections are coming up.

There's a reason they got elected. They're intellegent when they need to be. And they know what they're doing. Which is why it's so infuriating when they act incompetent and pander to the lowest common denominator.

This isn't about pandering or politics because the entire city is watching, so they're on their A-game to impress those watching to get votes.

It's impressively infuriating
