A good point by @ForecasterEnten about the “Democratic rigging” in Los Angeles’ mayoral race.
Incumbent mayor Karen Bass leads Republican Spencer Pratt by double digits in run-off polls, but trails Democratic challenger Nithya Raman by 4.
If Dems wanted to “rig” the primary, they would’ve picked Pratt to face Bass in the run-off.
@JetBlue pls stop the endless credit card sales pitch reads in flight while we're captive. this AM was two minutes long & nobody on board gave a crap. We either have your card (@Barclays is awful cust svc btw) or don't & either way don't want the flight experience interrupted.
@Automotive_News the third party listing sites were always part of the problem. @FTC should hold the sites & the dealers jointly liable. it would be good for the sites' business even if they don't realize it. for too long, they've allowed non compliant dealers to game their algorithms.
@EdforBoston Why did they decide not to have the World Cup trains stop at Back Bay & 128? All the @Amtrak trains stop there, & it would reduce congestion at South Station. I bet half the fans in the city heading to those games would opt for Back Bay; then you wouldn't need to close Summer St.
@jimkelleyMA@thecreasedive could do @LSLaxTweets - my friend Brian Vona is tired of losing to SJP... & they are the 1 seed this year, but they'd need to get the camera crew out stat!
@stuholden@USKeeper and what is an appropriate method of handling it for a professional athlete in the @ussoccer first team pool.... is most certainly NOT appropriate for 9, 10, 11 year olds.
@NateSilver538 it's too bad nobody has built a model to gather available data & try to fight @FIFAcom tactics by helping predict where fair prices should land. it's also not public (I don't think) if there are still more tickets they haven't released, right?
@stoolpresidente also.... and yes I think he should sell the team given where they are now, but FSG under John Henry hasn't been "disastrous ownership." They did break the curse & win four championships. Their tenure has run its course & there's a leadership vacuum, but it's hardly been all bad.
@FrankLuntz um.... those two items represent quite a bit more than 5% of the scope of the negotiations, no? Together they're probably 95%. They aren't what a negotiator might call an "oh, and by the way," which is how you'd characterize the last 5% of any deal
@SoccerInsider@grnrngr80 for sure - apples and oranges in terms of their importance to the squad. Richards is probably the first name on the team sheet 🤷♂️
@jasonfurman this seems like an issue that each individual faculty member could have fixed in their own classes by raising the bar either on what they teach, how they grade it, or both. Why did it have to be college-wide? And if it needed changing why not change to match the HBS forced curve?
