Three Seniors and three Juniors - get old, win your league
Drake only has two players that were at Drake last season and they were 9th and 10th in scoring for them. Three Seniors and three Juniors comprised the core this season that all came from somewhere else. I believe three or four were JUCO transfers.
The company has a Lightning and one of the new hybrid F150's. The hybrid is far better so far. I really think the government should have pushed hybrids while battery technology is still being worked on.
I still laugh that the mustang e beat the tesla in a drive across America because it can coast.
I have a friend with an Ioniq and he likes it, his only gripe is traveling and being able to charge it on vacation.
He needs to hire an elite recruiter/portal connected guy that focuses on defense. If we want to win, that is.
Makes me sad that ford's attempt at an ev truck went so poorly. I'm hoping Chevy does a better job.
Honestly not surprised that Tesla didn't get the Cybertruck tested by the Highway Safety crew and it has a 0 star rating. They glued panels to the body... My mind shudders at that.
Canada started refusing to insure it a year or two ago.
Mid majors are no secret- get old, win your league. That is a good model for VT, but you can't get old anymore. Creighton has managed to do that in the Big East, which is impressive. They were much better than Louisville's mercenaries yesterday
I hope we get the funding to actually provide CMY with a full staff. watching Drake make it to the second round with 4 DII players kept making me wonder what CMY could do with enough resources to be on the same level as an average P5 program.

# | Mike Young announces changes to the staff - Webster & Wetherington will not return I'm thinking 2-1. 2 gone, 1 new. That's where the increase in player funding is coming from. Be using AI for player recruiting; Siri "what player is available for $200 and Hardees coupons?"
I saw VW dealers are pissed that Scout is cutting them out of the equation. I'm personally all for eliminating the middle man if that means us consumers see the savings.
As an aside, VW manufactures the ID.4 (and Atlas) in Chattanooga. So there's another EV option that's assembled in the USA.
Penn State is a remote literal cow college in a freezing cold climate. I have no idea how they compete in major sports with that hand tied behind their backs.
Only in America will fucking idiots buy the ugliest "truck" on earth that serves no more practical truck purpose than a CRV for 6 figures. Nowhere but idiot americans with too much money to spend. Those things are an abomination.. The rear of the "truck" bed is 8 inches off the deck... yeah dad we can haul alot of shit in this. Stupid Americans.
We have a '22 ioniq5 and we love it. Has nearly 50k miles on it. We test drove a model 3 and it was fun but the Hyundai is far more comfortable. I still believe tesla has the best ev tech and their infrastructure is superior but the quality of the vehicles themselves is meh.
I'm happy to invest in companies other than tesla that will spend r&d money on ev tech. It's not perfect, by any means, but I think it's good for everyone to have a diverse set of options with investment going into new technologies
And I'm seeing reports that Liberty Mutual just decided to not renew insurance policies for anyone with a Cybertruck, and that's after Geico decided not to do so last year, so its likely that the issues Tesla are having are only going to get worse.
As an aside, over the winter I put $100 down on a Scout. EV with a gas generator to recharge the battery giving it 500 miles of range with the instant torque of an EV motor with the ability to essentially fill up the tank when its low? And its made in SC, and they're planning to go direct to consumer?
Yes, please!
As Buffett said, "Be fearful when others are greedy; be greedy when others are fearful." Lots of noise and reports out there about the tariffs that are causing the pullback more than the tariffs themselves. Investment banks and hedge funds were bound to take some profits at some point and they did, now the options markets have been surging so they're going to make more money on the way down, then buy up all the shares from panic sellers and ride it back up. Dollar cost average in and buy the dip! (Disclaimer: not financial advice, none given and none solicited!)
Politics aside, Tesla is objectively a subpar car company nowadays. Just this week they recalled effectively every single Cybertruck sold (not an exaggeration, >46k recalled of <50k sold) due to rear quarterpanels becoming unglued from the body.
There are so many better EV options over Tesla. The EV only mfrs (Rivian, Lucid, and Polestar, etc) are all better reviewed, and the traditional mfrs make better EVs now too. Shoot, the Hyundai Ioniq 5 has won Car and Driver's EV of the year every year since it was released (and that was before they dropped the N model).
Damn - I initially picked Drake over Missouri but changed it last minute

Yeah pretty much this. A downturn couldn't have had a more predictable downturn than it did over the past month, and given we're still hearing about tariffs with more likely coming in April, the worst is likely yet to come. And as you said, don't need to time it perfectly, just need to buy back in before it reaches the level at which I sold out for me to come out ahead, and when the market is already 10% lower than it was when I sold, there is plenty of buffer there.
Also, I'm just thankful that turkey legs aren't taxable. π¬

Oh boy.............need to just come back later to this one.
Completely agree with this take. I get the logic about time in market being better than timing the market, but when the market is this easy to time, why not? I mean, I moved from the C and S funds (in TSP) to the G and I funds at the beginning of March, and it's working out for me so far. As long as I buy back into C and S sometime after the market bottoms out but before it gets to the levels I sold at, then I'm gaining. I don't have to time the market tightly; it was pretty obvious that the market was entering a downturn, and I'm pretty confident I'll have a lot of runway from the bottom to where I initially sold from.
Besides, I just hit 7 figures back in September, and I really want to stay above that threshold. Considering that the government lost my initial allocations, and I spent the first 4.5 years fully in the G Fund, I'm damn proud to be where I'm at right now.
Glad you were able to land on your feet so quickly. This means I'm not going to have to start legging your comments now, as you have plenty. I'd feel guilty and have to leg you, otherwise. ;^)
I generally second public sector work though as long as you accept that the money won't be as good as private sector but the hours are better and it is generally stable.
Not so much these days at the federal level. That advantage is gone now, I'm afraid.

Yeah there were no good points in losing to Panama. Guys were sleepwalking out there.
