    Honestly I have no idea how a panel would deal with this. You've got their traditional pro-employer history clashing with Jesus. I wouldn't want to lay money on either outcome.

    Obligatory: Slorch'd!

    I'll grant you it ain't the Episcopal Church.

    According to the judge, he viewed the changing of the wording from the court's injunction to what it said in its memo to employees as willful disobedience. It was a poor call on their part; they should have just taken the language from the order verbatim. The second memo regarding "don't be a dick" and telling its employees that SW disagreed with the decision and would be appealing in my view shouldn't have been sanctionable; court' s order could be viewed as unconstitutional violation of SW and its lawyers' free speech rights. Of course the mandated religious re-education/indoctrination appears to me to be absolutely unconstitutional. I guess we'll see how that moderate, careful thinking Fifth Circuit views it.

    The case never should have gone to a jury.

    I dunno about that. Judges often telegraph their thoughts/leanings. Sometimes more obviously than others. It doesn’t mean they’ve chosen a side necessarily; it usually just offers a window into what’s on their minds.

    I just looked over my DirecTV bill. Holy hell I'm paying way too much for this stuff. $170 for channel lineup (all the sports stuff plus HBO/Showtime/Starz), and then another $100 or so for equipment and other BS charges. Just going to Hulu or YTTV will save me at least $150 a month even with add-ons. No brainer.

    According to the chart in the article I linked above it has ESPN and ESPN2 but ESPNU costs extra.

    Just read a recent CNET article. For my needs it seems like Hulu might be the best option, but I'm going to need to keep digging to compare against YTTV. My living room TV is 4K so YTTV's 4K option (which is nice for some sporting events on DirecTV like the Masters, a lot of bowl games, and the Women's World Cup) is intriguing. Wondering if/when Hulu will offer something similar.

    Actually you started it. And to all, sorry for the brief thread drift and longcat. Also, you say "I never said Trump winning is impossible. I've repeatedly said that it is. But anyone who thinks it's "likely" is living in La-la land." Yet you stated, unequivocally, "He will win no more elections. Not in the popular vote, and not in the Electoral College." When South Austin pushed back, you moved the goalposts to say "Possible, yes. Likely? Very much no." So, maybe take a break.

    Look, you can keep wish casting all you want about the outcome of the next election. It doesn't change the simple fact that until the votes are in, neither of us can predict the outcome with any certainty. And there's no need to try to insult me (or SouthAustin or his mom) with your "you aren't paying attention" or "I have to reconsider everything you've ever posted before" to strengthen your posts. Maybe just rely on the content. I'll go back to posting snarky gifs now.

    I've already got no ad Hulu with ESPN and Disney. Probably will investigate this option (as well as YTTV) further.

    I took a look at the list and nothing screamed at me that I had to sign up.

    Is Trump the current odds-on favorite to win the R nomination? If so, then the likelihood of him being re-elected is not just possible but very possible. Perhaps as much as a toss up. I get it that you cannot fathom how others might have different perspective than you (which causes you to go on neg-bombing raids when they disagree with you), but just because someone disagrees with you doesn't mean they're wrong.

    Tired of ridiculous fees for DTV. SWMBO wants to have local station access. I want sports plus HBO which is what I mostly watch on DTV. What is the current consensus on best option? Hulu+? YouTube TV? Others?

    Este. I wasn't just a member, I was the founding member and first president of my law school chapter. Of course that was over 30 years ago. I really didn't ever pay any attention to it after I graduated (never paid dues, etc.) so it wasn't really until like the last 10 years or so that I noticed its considerable increase in influence.

    Dak is not better than Goff. He's better than Tua was as a rookie but not anymore. Herbert is demonstrably better than Dak. Cowherd is annoying as shit but he isn't wrong.
