@RichOToole You also have to account for how much rent they pay for the dirt. They hardly ever own it. Gas doesn't make the stations anything, it's all about the sales inside. Fountain drinks have huge margins. 2 bucks for a dime's worth of soda ain't bad.
@thebeezyproject@HayesHolly2 We kind of have a metric of not doing super long contracts especially for middle-aged (in baseball years) players with a history of injuries. I think Breggie's arm and Tucker's leg will be recurring issues for the remainder of their careers. We need to rebuild our farm system.
@GaryWCE A 16 team makes the likelihood of a 3 loss champion a real possibility, and I'm not comfortable with that. To me, tackling NIL is the biggest issue on the table. I think there should be a cap for each team and the sale of interest in a team should be forbidden.
@TXzachTX@RichOToole 20 years ago was 2004. Pizzatolas was bringing it back then until they lost the man behind the Q. I also loved Otto's ribs and Goode Co wasn't bad. FF to now and those players are irrelevant. You're spot on with P. Room, Truth, and Pinkertons. You know your Q
@JeffNadu I don't care for Trump, but what would change under Kamala? This inflation is unsustainable. Long periods of inflation has dire consequences: uptick in crime, drug/alcohol abuse, suicides, depression, etc. At least, he'll make us energy independent and that will lower prices.
@JeffNadu No it won't because they own too many politicians and business people in the US and the rest of the world. The "CARTEL" is highly sophisticated and very much in the shadows where no one looks.
