Big Hurtin

This was apparently from July, but I just heard about it today from someone at work. https://www.washingtonpost.com/amphtml/poli...7583_story.html Excerpt “I’ve got black accountants at Trump Castle and at Trump Plaza — black guys counting my money!” O’Donnell’s book quoted Trump as saying. “I hate it. The only kind of people I want counting my money are short guys that wear yarmulkes every day. Those are the kind of people I want counting my money. Nobody else. . . . Besides that, I’ve got to tell you something else. I think that the guy is lazy. And it’s probably not his fault because laziness is a trait in blacks. It really is; I believe that. It’s not anything they can control.”

Haha, perfect.

I think they try to spin him to Boston for a package like Moncada, Benintendi, Swihart, and something in hope of plugging a couple holes while staying competitive. Yeah, Boston is NEVER going to make that deal.

This is why the race is still close. The not paying federal taxes doesn't negatively impact him with his supporters. They aren't upset about it, but are envious that he was able to get away with it.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Sep 29, 2016 -> 08:33 PM) so 270,000 tickets at about $25 each isn't worth selling because of a $95,000 tax hit? Not when it would require investing millions of dollars to make that happen.

QUOTE (Black_Jack29 @ Sep 29, 2016 -> 01:00 PM) Uh, yeah, that's it. Ticket revenue doesn't matter when running a sports franchise. $35 million dollars is chump change. You've obviously never run a business before. If you knew anything about business, you'd know that net worth includes non-cash assets, such as his financial stakes in the Sox and Bulls. The idea that Reinsdorf is an old miser when his franchise is near the bottom 20% of the league in attendance, but in the top half in payroll is silly. The idea that he should dump his own personal savings into the team's payroll is equally silly. It actually benefits Reinsdorf to have lower attendance. "The Sox also must pay a fee on each ticket sold in excess of 1.93 million in paid attendance. Since 2008, the Sox have paid that fee only in 2010, when games drew 2.2 million fans. However, the Sox were allowed to apply a credit based on the taxes the team paid that year, reducing the ticket fee payment from $455,974 to $95,531. "The White Sox didn't have that much of an incentive to really pack the place," Sanderson said." http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/ct-sox-...0521-story.html

Not surprised, not even a little. Seriously folks,

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Sep 26, 2016 -> 10:36 PM) Can't believe the people cheering for Trump. Ugh. I can. I have very little faith in humanity.

Advocating war crimes won't even get his numbers to drop.

Done with Extra Innings until / unless there is new ownership, I think.

I just can't wrap my head around how long he had been broadcasting. It's amazing to have had a career like that.

What's the drinking game for the debate? I mean if you really want alcohol poisoning, drink every time ___ ?

QUOTE (juddling @ Sep 26, 2016 -> 12:17 AM) While i don't think NK will start WWIII, i will say that if i had to bet on anyone starting it.....it would be them. I don't know, I think the American and Chinese influence in each country would prevent it. If I was betting on such a thing, the nuclear war would start between India and Pakistan. Just talking about nukes in general, I think it will be one of the west African nations with a dirty bomb.

The problem may be simple, but high OPS guys cost big $, so...

Is To'hajiilee close enough?

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Sep 13, 2016 -> 08:44 AM) South Park actually did a decent job on this two years ago: I find it funny because there is so much overlap between these people and gun rights folks. Basically, gun control will only hurt legal gun owners. Couldn't the same be said here, that perverts will still be perverts regardless of laws?

QUOTE (DrunkBomber @ Sep 8, 2016 -> 02:37 PM) Meanwhile Jill Stein is in the slammer for vandalizing construction equipment with spray paint lol. I wish I could go 30 years in the future and see what the history books say about this election. destination unreachable

QUOTE (greg775 @ Sep 2, 2016 -> 04:16 PM) Thank u for the clarification. I thought I read or heard on O'Reilly that whites were no longer a majority in terms of numbers. Is that really important for you?

Jon Polito , had small parts in many Coen Brothers' films

I'm surprised there are so many ranked vs. ranked the first week. It should be a good weekend of football.

The White Sox are barrelling down the tracks to "if a tree falls in the woods..." territory.

It makes sense that he wants to win, since the definition of want is to lack.
