  1. Taking what I’m sure is an overly simplistic look at this, if the UAW is even slightly successful in negotiating higher pay for its members, doesn’t that put Tesla at an even greater risk of its workers unionizing? Tesla employees would suddenly see their union counterparts making 2-3x what they are making instead of 50%, and their stock options not gaining all that much value over the last 2 years. 

    If someone making the average at Tesla, took the max stock option of 15% of salary and buying at 85% prevailing stock price every month for the last 2 years they would have turned ~$27k into ~38k. The average UAW worker beat that $11k gain by ~$80k in that two year span. How good are those stock options going to look when your counterpart is making 3x what you are?

    Alternatively, what happens to Tesla if it’s suddenly faced with having to double its workers’ pay?

    idk, there’s a good chance that I’m a moron, but it doesn’t seem like the UAW getting a pay increase for its members is a clear cut win for Tesla long term.

    If I were UH I'd change the color scheme to that permanently since the NFL team will never get them back. Raises a question, has a program every had a complete change in primary colors? I think I've seen that Colorado was light blue a million years ago and changed. I'm not talking changes in shading, I'm talking about complete change in colors altogether. Nothing comes to mind off the top of my head.

    Penn state started out as pink and black but changed to navy and white in the 1890s. The basketball team uses pink and black as an alternate every now and then.

    I actually stopped watching him because it bugs me so much, but another in the group last weekend later told me he counted TWENTY SEVEN waggles before one of his tee shots

    That’s got to be in the range of a full minute of waggling on every hole. That’s adding at least 15 minutes to the round, just watching the wiggling his club around on the tee box. And that if it’s only on the tee. 

    I’d let it slide for 9 holes at the MOST then I’m saying something. I’d probably wait until after the round if he’s got a great one going. But if he’s having a rough day I’m saying something by the 3rd or 4th time.

    Pennsylvania: where dipshits leave a rifle just leaning up against the wall in their garage.  And said homeowner is in there.  With a pistol on his hip.  That checks out.

    Because there are definitely no unsecured guns in garages anywhere in texas. Definitely.

    I wish I was a neutral. 

    I can’t quite call myself neutral in this one. I became a fringe texas fan in 2005 because fuck usc. Then this board solidified that. Add to that always rooting against the sec and Saban. 

    But I can’t imagine the number of heart attacks the last 30 minutes have caused for yinz guys.
