One of my favorites when someone fricks up
“He really dicked the dog” which is better form of screwed the pooch
Or when someone can’t do something right “it’s like watching a monkey try to frick a football”

Agree. That’s why I watch more wholesome family friendly shows like Deadwood

too little to lower the price of oil or provide relief for drivers.
By itself this is correct but other areas and oil producing nations are ramping up production too. It adds up. Then when the war ends and the Strait opens and if sanctions are lifted on Iran there will be a huge glut in about two years

This is all products nowadays. Companies figured out planned obsolescence or shorter lifespans on products lead to higher volume of sales. Quality is no longer considered of paramount importance

If we want peace then this is what deal we should offer to Iran.
Give us uranium, sign a non proliferation agreement for nuclear weapons and open the strait. We will lift sanctions and pull all financial and military support of Israel. We will sign a defense agreement with both Iran and Israel stating we will defend either from initial aggression. There is to be no attacks from this point from either. The first one to fire after this point will face the wrath of the U.S. military

They create jobs but also create inequality because when they reach billionaire status they lobby for laws and regulations that their companies can absorb that smaller businesses cannot.
If the billionaires reach that status due to providing goods and services at max quality and/or efficiency then it benefits all. If they pull the ladder up to eliminate competition from smaller companies they destroy the middle/upper middle class business owners
How many retail stores that provided 6 figure income to the owners have been put out of business by Walmart and Amazon?
Take a Walmart in a town of 10,000 people. Walmart has 2-3 management positions that pay well. The rest are a couple dozen low wage earners. Earnings from this Walmart go to Walmart corporation out of state and the Walton family. Walmart puts local stores out of business. Town becomes rundown because local tax base is diminishing and empty building after empty building drives down real estate values and makes people move to nicer places.
Now take same town without Walmart. You have two or three locally owned clothings stores. You have a couple furniture stores. You have a couple hardware stores, you have a sporting goods store, a general store, a couple grocery stores. All employ 2-10 low wage earners, maybe one manager at a larger place. Proceeds of each go to the owners who live in the town and bank at local banks. Money stays in the local economy. Owners give back to the community improving public services, schools, etc because they care and want their town to grow to attract more people which means more customers.
Which is better?

If they managed to get to space and collect the satellite there is an assumption that they are at least as smart as us.
Thing is even if they were intelligent there’s still no guarantee their home planet even has uranium for them to know that. And their measurement of time is likely far different since we measure in earth years

Leach's problem is that if he was at a "top notch" program he'd have tangled with big money boosters sooner rather than later and they would have taken the first opportunity to drive him of
Leach enjoyed life outside of football. He didn’t want the pressure and time consuming job of running a big program. He could make an irrelevant program relevant and enjoyed the smaller town life more. Win 9 games at WSU and MSU and nobody questions why you’re in key west on vacation instead of recruiting

Mike Leach will be remembered as so much more than a football coach.
The funny thing is he wouldn’t give a shite if he is in the HoF or not. He would get more enjoyment out of a cocktail at a beach bar in Key West being named after him

The fact of the matter is, when he died his career winning percentage was .02% away from the minimum required for consideration.
Also if you credit him with the bowl win after his death since it was his team and coaches it puts him over the threshold
At least it works so props to him for that
