  1. Remember, it isn't about being competent or doing a good job, it's only about loyalty. Trump is a dictator and will not give up power, he's putting as many lickspittles into his admin as he can so he'll be able to stay in power. Jan 6 was his dress rehearsal. Trump views himself as emperor with unfettered power to do anything he wants. You're watching the fall of American Democracy in real time. https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/national-security/national-security-agency-chief-deputy-director-dismissed-rcna199647
  2. Going to the driving range this afternoon, that's fantastic
  3. I think the bottom is gonna fall out again. I don't believe their team sh% over this stretch is truly sustainable and defense still sucks.
  4. Yes. Do you things with your kids when you can.
  5. Nay. You're there to experience a moment, to feel it. All your favorite artists already have music videos, no one wants yours. Live in the moment instead of worrying about a video you'll only watch 1 other time.
  6. It will only be getting worse. Portfolio is down 6.75% compared to 2 months ago now. My complaint is that there is nothing I can do and it sucks.
  7. I think the issue is when Tage or JJP are getting stopped we don't have a backup way of scoring goals regularly. All shooters go through cold periods and we've seen that. Buffalo is a one dimension offensive team still.
  8. xGF% is the division of xgf and xga. To answer your question, yes more shots against would raise the xGA and since Buffalo is not shooting as much you get that discrepancy. The way expected goals work, is each spot on the ice has a sh% more or less. So what is the average sh% from this spot in the ice over the entire league. This, as has been debated here, doesn't take individual skill into account so Thompson shooting from 10ft out is the same as Benson in the metrics. It helps to normalize and adjust for shots. The better models look at shot type, speed, and they are starting to examine pre-puck movement. xGF is basically better corsi because it doesn't treat all shots the same. Teams that are -xGF% (so they are below 50%) are the teams that don't make the playoffs and lose more games. That is the general correlation and takeaway.
  9. They will use the lack of data or the ability to manipulate the data to do two things. First they will kick a bunch of ppl out of the programs, this will hurt children in particular. Second they will use their data to claim there is a bunch of fraud, which there isn't.
  10. I firmly believe this board as delved more greedily and more deeply into the Sabres issues and remedies than the Sabres own front office has.
  11. They'll win the lottery this year or next.
  12. Tariff rates were calculated by taking the trade deficit we had with a country and dividing it by exports. It's so ***** stupid it almost defies logic. These ppl are stupid.
