If it's not until August, I'll take a pass.

The "first round" of the playoffs would be poop - guys won't have been together for 3-4 months.

What are you going to do - have a 3-game first round? A 3-game 2nd round?

Seven game series require two weeks.

I'd rather they scrap the season and get in a full 2020-21 season - and hell, I think that's being optimistic.

Playoffs would help the league revenue

I think that’s all I’d really care about, I wouldn’t be too invested in it but it’s better than nothing

Somewhat more related. Keefe said he doesn’t have or hasn’t watched Netflix just old Leaf games.

Wrong again, he loves America and the world and would do anything for them. I would wager that if there was a war going on, he would volunteer to go fight for his country because that's just the kind of guy he is.

I absolutely believe he would say that he would

They just want the least scary candidate even if they like the platforms of the others way more.

I dunno man, electing a 78 year old man into the highest office in the country is pretty scary if you ask me

I don't really have a suggestion for an alternate candidate, though I frankly find it concerning that the Democratic party has an inability to produce a compelling candidate under the age of 70.

They had a bunch that all suffered from the same problem: not surethingitis. Harris, Booker, O’Rourke all had warts but were all viable but Dems were afraid to take a chance. I bet if Obama was an unknown running now there’s no way he’d get the nomination

A big name in Americana/Folk/Country music. Songwriter with some substance. Wrote about the average person and the human condition with some humour.

Probably his most famous and most touching song was Angel from Montgomery - here with Bonnie Raitt

I agree that it is not a wise idea to elect a President with the age around average life expectancy.
I would think that it would be wise to set a max age restriction of 67years for example for a President to start his tenure.

Yes and he's doing such a fine job. After his protege Kushner is done single-handedly defeating the covid 19 pandemic, Kushner will be put in charge of NASA's new multi-trillion dollar space program.

He also single-handedly solved the Israel/Palestine conflict.

I don't know that there would have to be a hard cap, I would just think that it's something people would think about (in a perfect world) that the stability of a country is dependent on stable leadership.

Also, and maybe this is just a me thing, but I think that being able to use a computer is a major indication of how in-touch with the modern world a person is.

But since all the opposition leaders will suffer tragic deaths drinking Novichok milkshakes, his tenure could be extended

nobody said Putin is perfect. You can never be perfect as a leader of a big nation - let alone a country which came from ultra-capitalism and thugs taking over several industries post-communism.

but saying Putin kills all of his rivals is similar to saying the whole story around the 'Clinton murders' is true...

This is the stupidest false equivalency I’ve ever heard
