HPS officers are waiting on power crews to respond to hydro lines down in the residential area north west of the Hanover Hospital. It is believed that hydro is out for the entire @TownofHanover . People are reminded to treat traffic lights as four way stops and stay well ..

The World Cup advertisement breaks are bad because they take a game that's premised on building momentum over time and arbitrarily interrupt that flow to sell people on degenerate sports gambling sites.

Utterly ridiculous! Every prior GM hire that got picks out of this also worked under a president, board chair or CEO. Scrap Resolution JC-2A if the league is just going to hand picks out on a whim rather than logic

[Ian Rapoport @RapSheet]

The #Bears have been lobbying for draft pick compensation following the hire of Ian Cunningham as #Falcons GM. Today, the NFL responded stating there will be no picks coming:

“The matter is now closed following the club’s appeal. The NFL informed the Bears today they will not receive compensatory picks. The policy is designed to provide picks for the Primary Football Executive position. The League determined Mr. Cunningham did not fill that role with the Falcons as it is defined in League rules.”

Falcons GM Ian Cunningham, formerly of the Bears, says his understanding of the NFL’s rule is that the Bears should get two 3rd-round picks because of the Falcons hiring of him.

@RollsRoyce0406 @billbarnwell It's a second half of the season stat, but good attempt at math mouthbreather

[Bill Barnwell @billbarnwell]

If you call a guy for taunting in the playoffs to give a team a first down on fourth-and-12 he needs to be doing the full DX entrance
