  1. Surprised no one has started a 2019 thread, but since it is opening day, here goes at least for predictions: AL East Boston Red Sox New York Yankees Tampa Bay Rays Toronto Blue Jays Baltimore Oriels AL Central Cleveland Indians Minnesota Twins Kansas City Royals Chicago White Sox Detroit Tigers AL West Houston Astros Oakland As LA Angles Texas Rangers Seattle Mariners NL East Philadelphia Phillies Washington Nationals New York Mets Miami Marlins Atlanta Braves NL Central Chicago Cubs Milwaukee Brewers St. Louis Cardinals Cincinnati Reds Pittsburgh Pirates NL West Colorado Rockies
  2. I doubt that anyone here is rooting for an economic downturn, but the likelihood is that we will see one.
  3. This went exactly as I predicted. As for impeachment, I think it is pretty much off the table. Pelosi has said as much. I am sure she caught wind of the Mueller report before it dropped and knew it is best to leave it be. The best course of action is to start giving POTUS enough rope to hang himself. Economic factors point to a major downturn 4th quarter this year, and early next year. Also we have this shit show that starting Israel. I don't see how this is gonna end up good for anyone involved. Plus the looming mess in NK. I unfortunately see us in bad shape by this time next yea
  4. So the Mueller Probe is set up wrap soon: https://www.cnn.com/2019/02/20/politics/special-counsel-conclusion-announcement/index.html So what if Mueller comes out and says, "we did a full investigation and we have caught who we caught but there is no evidence of wrong doing by the President and his inner circle." I do think this is a likely scenario. I can't imagine what the left will say after hanging all hope that Mueller will bring POTUS down. And the right who sees Mueller as illegitimate and a secret deep state democrat.
  5. As funny as that is, clearly the person who wrote the the speech for him intended it as a metaphor. Everyone knows you can't get over real walls.
  6. He just praised Saudi Arabia for low gas prices. Other than being factually incorrect, it is incredibly stupid. Sometimes I think he is doing the greatest piece of performance art ever, or he is the dumbest man on the planet.
  7. If one thing I have learned in the last 2 plus years is the main stream media is incapable of dealing with Trump's hypocrisy.
  8. There is no way in hell that Session's left without a direct order from POTUS.
  9. "your second amendment rights are under siege, but they will never be under siege while I am president". Donald Trump on the 2nd Amendment. Hey let's do an EO to get rid of the birthright citizenship. Donald Trump's thoughts on the 14th. I firmly believe the only Amendment POTUS can name is the 2nd. And this is the only one the GOP cares about.
  10. Another mass shooting. I wonder which brave Right Wing pundit is gonna calls this a false flag operation.
  11. I was listening to Rush this afternoon, he was going on about how this whole thing was distracting from the GOP's good early voting polls. I am not sure about that, since I don't think it is a big story anyways. But what it definitely has pushed out of the limelight is the murder and cover up of a Journalist and US resident. Not too many people are asking any more questions about the Saudis and the tie to the Trump family.
  12. The World Series this year just seems a bit meh. I guess the Dodger and Sox just seem so boring and predictable. I would have really liked to see how Milwaukee would have done in the series.
  13. I haven't revisited old Who in a long time. But there are some things I wish NuWho would do that Old Who did. Especially in regards to companions friends. Non Earth basedNon 21st CenturySomeone who is an adversary or working against the Doctor (secretly)Most of the nu-who companions have been 21st century earth humans. Only a handful has been from a different time and or planet (Jack Harkness, River Song, Nardol). I think it is high time we got some different type of companions.
  14. If memory serves, the 4th had three (Romana, K9, Adric; the aft fore mentioned Tegan, Nyssa, Adric) and the 5th had it quite a bit (the seasons w/ Tourlogh, Kamelion, Tegan). But again it has been a while since I have revisted those seasons. For being such a good Doctor the 5th had some pretty shitty companions.
  15. Have you forgot about the Adric, Tegan and Nyssa days of the late Tom Baker / early Peter Davison era? Oh God Adric sucked. Also I didn't think anyone watched shows when they were broadcast anymore.
  16. Anyone watch the first three Episodes of this season's Doctor Who. So far Whitaker has impressed me, she is good in the role. There is room for improvement, I feel as though her Doctor is looking for validation from everyone, which is something past Doctors didn't really do. Also I am glad they aren't making too big of deal (in the show anyways) about the gender change. I would imagine it would be a bigger deal if the regeneration spanned companions friends (not used to that at all). And Ryan Sinclair kinda sucks IMHO.
  17. Canada is now America's cooler brother that can get you weed.
  18. So Red Sox v Dodgers? Red Sox in 5.
  19. The same thing could be said about the Brewers.
  20. Am I disappointed by the results today, yes. Am I supposed, no. It would have taken Jesus descending from heaven and speaking against the nomination have it not go through. Heck that probably wouldn't have been enough. Let's not forget, POTUS has been accused by 16 women of sexual assualt; been accused of rape by his ex wife; implicated in a payoff from an affair with a porn star; and bragged about sexually assaulting women and teenagers. Judge Kav is a freaking choir boy compared to Trump. Once Trump was elected we knew a day like this would come, the court is now stacked right a
  21. Because having an open seat on the Supreme Court is a threat to our democracy and our long lived traditions. Just ask Merrick Garland. Kav is a shitty pick across the board. Be it his questionable finances, his record during the Bush Whitehouse, his thoughts on Presidential power, his history in High School and College, or his temperament. One of these things alone disqualify him from SCOTUS, and compounded together it is a pretty damning case against the man. But to the question you asked why are they ramming this through. The President and GOP need a Justice who will side with the P
  22. Honestly this is why I think Kav is gonna be confirmed. As long as the president and the GOP do not treat it a serious thing it is easier for the Senators to vote for him.
  23. True that. It will probably be a Brewers/A's World Series too, in which no one outside of Oakland or Milwaukee will watch.
  24. So you think there was some conspiracy to give the cubs the win? I felt the calls were fairly decent across the board. Not all perfect, but consistent. Which is what you desire in a game. calls for Maddon to lose his job are down right silly. Anyone who thinks that did not see the Cubs this season and what they actually overcame.
