Ben Stein: Trump Doesn’t ‘Know a Goddamn Thing About Economics’ But I’m Voting For Him Anyway
http://latest.com/2016/06/ben-stein-trump-doesnt-know-a-goddamn-thing-about-economics-but-im-voting-for-him-anyway/“I think Trump is popular because he says: I am going to go to China and get those jobs back. But he is not going to be able to do that. And any attempt to try would be a disaster.”
“I don’t think Trump knows a goddamn thing about economics.”
“But I like him anyway, I might add.”

Not a bad retro choice, actually. I mean, how many times can you see The Room, or even Rocky Horror?
It probably does. "Sad Jose", however, is like a piece of SoCal that drifted up along the plate boundary and collided with the Bay Area. 
Of course, us Timbers Army folk do spend too much time making fun of the 1906 Ultras, though I'm not sure that's really wrong, either.

most MLS sides can barely scare up a supporters' section! 
In an age of money, it led to the one of the most incredible sports stories in history with the Foxes of the EPL this year, but the reality is that it leaves only five or six teams at most with a realistic chance of winning a league title.
I would suspect, as time goes on, that the pro/rel system will probably go away, as owners with big money refuse to buy in if their investment is at risk, but I could be wrong, as I often am. (I dissed my own team all last year, only to have them win the MLS Cup, and you have no idea how awesome that was to a 48-year-old who had only one favorite team win a title before, and that in a league and a sport he doesn't really care about, the NFL.)
Quite frankly, I could also see the European Champions League becoming an actual league with home and away fixtures for everyone, instead of the middling tournament format it has now. The money would be massive for the clubs involved.
I don't like that, but until the world stops moving toward ever greater extremes between the haves and the have nots, I can't see that end not happening.
years ago from Chicago Heights, Ill
very smart move
his brother is a periodontist who took out two of my wisdom teeth. he had a leek in the nitrous line, and we were both laughing so hard we had to change rooms....thought I was going to stroke out, but the only time I ever laughed like that was on acid
just kidding
not
I have good dreams about the place! It's awesome!
with an eye toward the Dem nominee throwing them in his face. 
Back from his days as a speechwriter from Richard Nixon. We would drink booze together, back when Republicans and Democrats kind of got along. A couple of observations:
1. He is absolutely hilarious in person. He has a biting, satirical, wit that leaves no person untouched. I used to write down his insults for later use.
2. He probably is mildly racist as old people (of all races) are prone to be. This is one of the reasons I refuse to go to a retirement community. Mainly, however, he's just an ass and will say racists things (e.g. "Cassius Clay" to get a rise because he likes to tweak people.
3. He knows his economics. He does not understand the social implications of economics because he is the grinder, hard working, type who rise to the top no matter what. You strip him of all his worldly possessions and status and dump in on a foreign island and he would be a successful guy with a successful coconut stand 3 years later. He doesn't understand, and has no time for, people who aren't like him. (This is actually typical of a lot of "good guy" conservatives. I've observed them up close like Gorillas in the Myst.)
