TSD

Given how good the Astros look to be for years to come, I think this is a terrible idea.

http://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2017/10/breaking-parking-tickets-prove-stephen-paddock-mandalay-bay-sept-25th-3-days-feds-say-arrived/ FBI still claiming he checked in on the 28th when clearly he was already there on the 25th. Nothing conspiratorial about this, the fact is they are lying. Wake up.

Ah yes the old "everyone I disagree with is stupid" fallacy. Weak sauce. I bet the conspiratards are still smarter than the sheep that buy the BS the media and gov feed us. I'm somewhere in the middle but lean towards not buying the official story. I tested 138 IQ on the MENSA entrance exam, 2200 on my SAT, and went to Stanford for my grad degree. Tell me how much smarter you are again? Besides, all those measures of intelligence are one dimensional. I work with people from top schools that have no common sense and couldn't change a tire to save their lives.

Cuz he was an arms dealer?

Shooting blindly? He was shooting at a lit up target at night. Even a cheap red dot scope would do. You're not talkign about precision marksmanship here, it was a crowd of 20k. When's the last time you shot a gun? You seem to have more opinions than knowledge.

What do you call a smart blonde? Golden retriever. Three women are about to be executed for crimes. One's a brunette, one's a redhead, and one's a blonde. Two guards brings the brunette forward, and the executioner asks if she has any last requests. She says no, and the executioner shouts, "Ready . . . Aim . . ." Suddenly the brunette yells, "earthquake!!" Everyone is startled and looks around. She manages to escape. The angry guards then bring the redhead forward, and the executioner asks if she has any last requests. She says no, and the executioner shouts, "Ready . . . Aim . . ." The redhead then screams, "tornado!!" Yet again, everyone is startled and looks around. She too escapes execution. By this point, the blonde has figured out what the others did. The guards bring her forward, and the executioner asks if she has any last requests. She also says no, and the executioner shouts, Ready . . . Aim . . ." The blonde shouts, "fire!!"

A baby seal walks into a club.....

NRA calling for a review (ban) on bump stocks. Interesting.

Listen to the gunfire at the beginning of the video vs the distant gunfire around the 45 second mark. Huge difference in apparent distance and volume. Also look at the flash at 4:55-515. That ain't coming from the 32nd floor. Either it's a strobe of some sort or if it's muzzle flash we're being fed a line of bs. If you want to hear a real far out theory, there's documents online that seem to show that his gf's sponsor for immigration was a guy named Carl W. Ford, a CIA guy. The food receipt shows 2 guests in his room were ordered for, too much food for 1 guy and 2 drinks ordered. Receipt also says "table" number was 32125...his floor and room number. IRD, in room dining. Who was up there with him? What's this second person the police are alluding to? Lady told people at the concert they would die soon. Whatever the case I think there's more to come.

Your obsession with Trout is downright creepy. Face it he hasn't done good under pressure so far in his career. It's a pattern with him at this point. Terrible in the playoffs, if he had tore it up you wouldn't be screaming small sample size. His performance in high leverage situations this season barely exceeded that of Albert. Terrible September this year but as soon as they were officially out of it he had a great couple games. If you look at his career numbers his OPS peaks in June, goes down in July, then lower yet in August, and his worst month is September. That's a six year average, not a "small sample size". That's a definite trend at this point. Hopefully he outgrows this. But it can no longer be denied. He's choking until he proves otherwise.

I don't disagree on the ridiculousness of it being legal but a couple points: It's a legal device at the moment and the manufacturer isn't liable if someone uses it for illegal means. A car can kill but you can't sue Toyota if some idiot runs your family down maliciously. This was not its intended use, from a legal standpoint. You would have a very hard time proving that this device was responsible for the death of your particular family member. A semi auto can put a lot of bullets downrange without one. I personally think abortion and serving alcohol to people when you know they are likely to drive home are terrible ideas, and many more lives have been taken because of these activities. Part of freedom is tolerating things you don't agree with at times. Part of a civilized society is pursuing legal means to change things you disagree with. I'm sure these devices will be illegal soon enough.

Only so I can see the Indians humiliate them.

They would have to be complete morons to. By any measure, Sanchez and Judge are worth more to a team than Trout alone. Not to mention they will make a combined 1/30th of what Trout will next year.

8.2 WAR as a rookie, will make over 30 million LESS than Trout, and so far doesn't suck in the playoffs or September. Do it. Spend the extra 30 mil and Stanton or JD Martinez too. Trout has been underwhelming when it counts, time and again.

This. Upton has a history of being very inconsistent. He had a great year but he's had plenty of mediocre ones. Plus he's a terrible defender, seems like his mind is in outer space half the time.
