He's pretty messy himself. He spoke in one of my classes during the press tour for My Dark Places. His mother's murder, rightfully so, affected him a lot.

The Passage / The Twelve / The City of Mirrors- Justin Cronin

The Strain / The Fall / Eternal Night - Guillermo del Toro

Beartown - Fredrik Backman

The Thicket - Joe Lansdale

LA Confidential and My Dark Places - James Ellroy

The Celebrant - Eric Rolfe Greenberg - mix of old baseball nostalgia and historical fiction. It's a quick read.

 

 

When those dorms are…

When those dorms are finished and they build up those houses they bought, it will turn that stretch into mini-State Street. There will be so many crosswalks, no one will be able to move at all.

It's an artery used to get to the hospital, especially in the summer when Main is closed. With traffic as it is, does an ambulance get privileges to the bike lane, otherwise there's the potential to get stuck with everyone in front of it lacking the ability to get out of the way.

My 2nd nominee for WTH were they thinking, the left turn at Busch's. They give you two lanes to turn and then condense it into one right away. It was a very good spot to not have a bike lane and have people use the rather large sidewalk that could be shared with pedestrians. The bike lane could have started after the driveway continuing down Main towards the mall. 

Bike lanes are fine, but the way they've planned all of this is off. If buses are part of their strategy, they're failing. They've made lanes hard to navigate for buses, the amount of times that cars are in the right spot but still need to back up so a bus can make a turn is increasing with these changes.

$24.99 for 12 months for the version with commercials. If you have a student in the house, you can get it for that price anytime. They probably just need a scan of their student ID.

This kind of story doesn't happen in a week. It's possible it was worked on by multiple classes. If your question is why didn't they report on the rumor of these activities, the players willing to speak about it, changed how they could approach this.

His character issues in Detroit, probably should have been red flags in Toronto. Look up Babcock/ Johan Franzen. Franzen had terrible post-concussion issues and wound up kind of terrorized by Babcock while dealing with these issues.

For your team's sake, hope he has learned some hard lessons. This isn't just a old school/new school issue...if you dare, look into how Mike Commodore feels about him, it's not good. The Mike Modano thing (benching him for his 1,500 game) wasn't a great look either.

It could be said that the current wings are paying debts collected off of keeping that playoff streak alive for Papa Illitch. Yes, Holland made some questionable moves...but the drive for that streak dictated a lot of that.

He'll probably be fine. His rehab time will depend on location and approach. If they do a repair the recovery time will be much longer than if they just cut out the piece. Full repair instead of cutting the section can depend on location because of blood flow in the location.

He was struggling, a lot. That combined with the new coach/gm wanting to clean house a bit. It would be great to get a Bacon-like book about the Gruden years, Part Deux. It would be nice to know who Gruden fought for and who Mayock fought for. Someone pointed out that the Raiders had solid drafts after the first round, was that left for Mayock? 

Gruden was once a good coach, and still had shockingly good moments of offensive playcalling...but a lot of the personnel pieces (dealing with current-day players and gambling on a player like AB) and evolution of the game, seemed to have passed him by while he spent a decade forming his booth persona.

Everything they're going…

Everything they're going through is a result of extending that playoff streak. Most teams missed a playoff or two and wound up with decent picks in-between. They sacrificed a strategic restocking to keep that sucker alive. Holland had his flaws, but it feels that was more of an Illitch management decision. Their lack of luck in the draft lottery hasn't helped either. Most of the teams that have won multiple cups in the last 20+ years had a significant successful reload multiple years in very high spots in the draft (Pittsburgh, Chicago and LA). Wings fans just have to hope they make those decisions and not the multiple years of bad top 4 picks like Edmonton, until you finally land a McDavid.

Loved it. I saw it in Chicago a few years ago. I can't wait until next Oct. when they release the original cast production into movie theaters. It's probably my favorite musical. The choreography and genre-hopping music are amazing. I also recommend Come From Away, didn't have any expectations going in and loved it.
