    They’re just going to let Lynn bleed out for his last start?

    Gotta keep that 100 pitch streak going.  It's like dropping the foul popup last year so Minor could get 200 strikeouts.  Some meaningless/unimpressive personal accomplishments are just more important than the team.

    Due to starting so late, fewer games, and the lack of respect for the conference, not sure a PAC 12 team has much of a chance to make the CFP.

    Definitely, 7 regular season games won't be enough.  tOSU's 8 though will be just right.

    I read Follett's new one, this time a prequel to The Pillars of the Earth.  It was good.  I feel like with the two sequels and now this one, he has mostly rewritten Pillars three times in different time frames.  This one is set around the turn of the last millennium, so England is showing the first signs of eventually coming out of the dark ages and there are lots of Viking raids.  It also has the familiar tropes - the genius builder, the evil scheming bishop and his family, the couple that fall in love but are kept apart by their different classes and said scheming bishop.  But I really loved the original, so this was good too.

    I think it's the other way around.  Red on Yellow kills a fellow, Red on Black venom lack.

    Won't someone think of poor friendless Jack?

    Watching ratched. It’s good, but I’m not yet sure it should be nurse ratched as opposed to just another ahs season. 
     

    well, murphy signed a deal with netflix but I'm sure fx retains rights to the franchise, so there you go

  6. We haven't done well but somehow there's this idea that we're the worst which also isn't true.  This week's economist has the following deaths per 100k population:

    • Belgium 86
    • Spain 65
    • UK 61
    • USA 59
    • Italy 59
    • Sweden 58
    • France 48
    • Netherlands 37

    European countries that have done well:

    • Portugal 19
    • Germany 11
    • Denmark 11
    • Finland 6
    • Norway 5
