Starting this by generally pointing at @geraldstratfor3

@ouwilkins @tsnmike Do you think conference games and preseason rankings are a good barometer for conference strength these days?

[Louis in the Ville @uoflcard]

@dannykanell They don't even need the propaganda at this point. The top 25 is already loaded with SEC teams, even after how pitiful they were last year. They'll all end up with a minimum of 4 top 20 wins just because that's all they play, per the rankings that have been pre-rigged.

@TheCardConnect Josh Bellamy. Doug Beaumont was the guy on those teams, but Josh was unstoppable. Played 8 years in the NFL, too.

As far as historically overlooked, even though we knew at the time he was great, DeWayne White #99. Dumervil is the best DE we've had, but #99 wasn't far behind

@GoldRoyalty1 @OrionNeutral @awfulannouncing That was all avoidable, and it even looks intentional with the way he took short, stamping steps

It's taken decades, but we're slowly learning. 2500 next year is great. Aim of 10,000 the year after that. THIS is how the city turns around. Not tax breaks for corporations, not trying to get an NBA team, and definitely not infinite suburban sprawl.

@lencornacchia @bwfast What's it like being a billionaire?

@didachedave @OrevaZSN I will say, my last hotel fridge (Hyatt Regency at McCormick Center in Chicago) was chilling my drinks to the bone. Nearly frozen. It was amazing, but also an outlier.

@didachedave @OrevaZSN Can't wait for that 55º Coke Zero in a couple days

@ryson Weekday jogs, dog walks or patio beers before sunset. 9 holes of golf after work. We gain a lot and don't lose much. And never driving home from work in the dark again.

@Nitrogen_B @MarcoFoster_ There are endless cool places to visit in America. That has no effect on the misery of living in suburban sprawl and being indoctrinated by oligarchs who control all of our media sources. Millions of Americans hate millions of other Americans. Something is very wrong here.

[Louis in the Ville @uoflcard]

@dufferjones @MarcoFoster_ He said nothing about hating America, just that it's unnecessarily miserable to live in as a human being. Humans' happiness is directly correlated to how good our communities are. America's infrastructure is designed to isolate , and many of our citizens hate each other.

The Allen Electric commercial that just ran on WLKY is metal

@HomaTrackerr #14 approach

[Louis in the Ville @uoflcard]

@NH3reftech @Schaumby 55-60% of cars on the road in 2009 are now gone. That's 150 million cars that aged out naturally. Cash 4 Clunkers was just under 700k. Of all cars that were alive in 2009 and are now gone, 0.4% of them were from Cash 4 Clunkers. It's negligible.

@josh_paul12 They should be relegated, at least any sport outside of the NFL.

[Louis in the Ville @uoflcard]

@NH3reftech @Schaumby We lost the fight for Right to Repair. That gave automakers the freedom to make cars that are overly expensive to fix. They’ve loaded them with unwanted tech, introducing hundreds of new failure points. New car prices have ballooned 2-3x. THAT is why the used car market sucks

[Louis in the Ville @uoflcard]

@NH3reftech @Schaumby 0.27%. 17 years ago. Those cars would be 30+ years old now with an additional 200k miles on them. We’re talking about cheap, reliable used cars that are typically less than 10 years old. Nothing to do with a program that ran for 2 months in 2009.

[Louis in the Ville @uoflcard]

@NH3reftech @Schaumby Cash for Clunkers removed 0.27% of cars from the road 17 years ago.

[Louis in the Ville @uoflcard]

@BigThunderMan @willbachcfp @ScottWi23694014 @Tae_Bo_Negative @ronMEXICO1995 @Schaumby 0.27% is the actual number, btw. 677,842 cars traded in out of a total pool of 250,000,000 cars in the US in 2009.

[Louis in the Ville @uoflcard]

@BigThunderMan @willbachcfp @ScottWi23694014 @Tae_Bo_Negative @ronMEXICO1995 @Schaumby Yeah it was Cash For Clunkers, which ran for 2 months 17 years ago and removed 0.27% of cars from the road, and not the fact that auto makers, like every corporation, will take every opportunity available to extract as much money as possible from society.
