    We pause for a very special moderator advisory
    Okay , while I understand it is hard to avoid this getting political at times, the Duke has a point ..and I think some folks are forgetting what Simon said on page one of the Political discussion thread which I will quote below...
     
     
     
    So, perhaps try to down play the political side of things at least in this thread, and then go write the political view heavy posts in the other one.

    Personal top five list in reverse order of Sports movies I enjoy
    5) The Cutting Edge (Yes, it's a romantic comedy, sue me)
    4) Dodgeball! ("Pepper needs new shorts")
    3) A League of Their Own (Great Acting, Directing, everything but I also have a soft spot for the character of Marla Hooch)
    2) The Replacements (Mixed in the humor and romp, there's a journey to being the best men you can be)
    1) A Knight's Tale (Under rated gem)
     
    (Honorable mention to the Rocky Movies)

    It cheeses me off
     
    I got nothing against Kevin Durant or even most other rich folk. I haven't met them, I don't know them.
    But the unspoken message of 'people who matter' vs 'folks who can #$## off and die because they're don't' seems deafening to me and I have to wonder why others aren't outraged by it.

    AH, apparently the article was mistaken so the site took it down. originally it seemed as if the EPA was basically letting mega corps have a free for all during the pandemic, but it turns out it's more about letting some EPA workers stay home and letting testing go ahead or some such. My apologies. Glad you caught it

    OTOH Marketplace interviewed a hairdresser in Boise, Idaho who voluntarily closed her shop before any order came. She doesn't know how she'll make her mortgage payments or how her employees will get by, but she decided that staying open would endanger the lives of her customers and staff.
