Wednesday Flotsam and Jetsam

Miscellaneous thoughts and observations.

Oregon State and Washington State won their lawsuit against the 10 teams that are leaving the Pac 12. Good for them. Use the cash wisely. Hope it doesn't all go to attorneys...  Very saddened by the news of the passing of San Diego Padres owner Peter Seidler. My condolences… I have to wonder if the same people who fall for spam emails from politicians are the same ones who fall for robo calls from sketchy companies? How did these people make their money in the first place?... Credit where credit is due... As Dan Wetzel points out - no matter what the Texas A&M Aggies pay their next head coach they're more likely to finish the season unranked than in the Top 10. Not even Johnny Football could bring them a National Championship... Instead of talking about how $500,000 house in each state has shrunk - shouldn't people be talking about how badly inflation has shrunk the value of the dollar?... I'd fully support putting Jaromir Jagr into the Hockey Hall of Fame now despite him still being an active player at 51 in his native land. Think Jaromir Jagr may be Czech for Gordie Howe... Have to admit this is a genius move!... If Americans are ready to believe in UFO's, or that JFK was killed by the CIA - shouldn't we finally release the fact that Yasir Arafat died of AIDs? Asking for a friend... When facts don't turn out as expected scientists revise their theorems. This doesn't apply to climate change or vaccines (obviously)... Honestly I would rather see Matthew Perry elected President than Gavin Newsome at this point. And yes I realize Matthew Perry is dead and that makes me sad but not as sad as he thought of a Newsome Presidency... Admit I’m a fan of Marc Andreessen’s daily art… Not for nothing bit I fully support Dana White’s stance on advertisers (and he has a lot more money than I do)... Reportedly the total count for those who attended the pro-Israel rally in DC was over 290,000. It would have been well over 2 million if all who wanted to attend were able...
