A Hopeful Tuesday

Maybe they don’t have to put a term limit in, but rather just maintain the clause they’re grandfathering in about the signing team retaining the cap hit after retirement.   That plus the lack of variance would probably cap out those deals, but it’s still hard to say.

anyway from the looks of it this is a full out negotiation . Seems like everything is on the table now.

Here’s a stereotype for you:
The Pew survey adds to a wave of surveys and studies showing that GOP-sympathizers are better informed, more intellectually consistent, more open-minded, more empathetic and more receptive to criticism than their fellow Americans who support the Democratic Party. Republicans fare substantially better than Democrats on several questions in the survey, as is typically the case in surveys about political knowledge,” said the study, which noted that Democrats outscored Republicans on five questions by an average of 4.6 percent.
The widest partisan gap in the survey came in at 30 points when only 46 percent of Democrats — but 76 percent of Republicans —- correctly described the GOP as “the party generally more supportive of reducing the size of federal government.”
The widest difference that favored Democrats was only 8 percent, when 59 percent of Republicans and 67 percent of Democrats recognized the liberal party as “more [supportive] of reducing the defense budget.”
The survey quizzed 1,000 people, including 239 Republicans and 334 Democrats.
However, Pew’s data suggests that the Democrats’ low average rating likely is a consequence of its bipolar political coalition, which combines well-credentialed post-graduate progressives who score well in quizzes with a much larger number of poorly educated supporters, who score badly.

The thing is…I can have heated debates with my family members and some of my best friends on politics…but I would never question them as human beings…they are caring,compassionate people who just want the best for their country…..we just have different beliefs on how to get there….when the political debate I still hold a huge amount of respect for these people….and thats my point….democrate…republican…liberal..conservative…both sides have thier fair share of good and bad…and yes both sides have extremists…but attempting to brand,demonize or villafy the people who support one side or the other is really quite juvenile…..

People can brand other people anyway they like….it doesn’t mean its accurate…and it doesn’t mean its a fact…surely you know this by now…

Can you make them bounce?

Shake your laptop?

Thats the best decision you made tonite…

YYYYYYYYYYYEEEEEEESSSSSS

Alec: I am having a fairly frequent problem of not being able to post while still being logged in. I post fine for a period of time, I do not logout but at certain points when I go to post I can only do so as a guest. There is no indication I have been logged out, just get error messages when I try to post, and so have to complete as a guest. Weird if nothing else.

Is Twitter really quiet right now? The length of the meetings and the veil of silence has my optimism reaching high levels.

Lots of speculation and some good conversation going on on twitter among the journalists.  Mean while none of them have a fuckin clue as to what’s really happening
