I read in Cinema Discusso that the new head of Disney (the one who may or may not actually be in charge) is known as a penny-pincher, which could be the reason for this news.

Bob Iger is back is what happened to Bob Iger

The Disney Co. has been losing, by some possibly conservative estimates, 30 million dollars per day since the coronavirus lockdowns started to hit so his retirement was very short-lived. That would be about 11 billion dollars over the course of a calendar year.

30 mil per day ... hachi machi. Never thought I see the day Disney would hemorrhage money


I wish I had 30 million total

Apparently Nice was awarded a 3-0 win because Marseille refused to re-take the field out of concerns for safety? Even though it was Nice's home fans which caused the entire fracas (and were presumably still in the stadium)?

They might wanna think about the logic of that decision..

Based on what little I know, I think Oswald did it alone and got lucky relatively speaking. Not sure why getting their opinions on this matter.

Unless JFK was pulling out of Vietnam, I'm not sure what his assassination changes in the long run anyway and it's well outside this subforum's scope to guess.

My favorite Kennedy conspiracy theory is that Oswald was actually trying to the kill the Governor, but missed and hit JFK by accident

Is this just the media mad that they don't get to report on a bunch of rumors? People are actually mad the guy wants to negotiate in private instead of out in the open?

I kinda get it from the writers perspective. The other leagues have Free Agent Frenzy, the Deal Zone, and whatever else that drives interest. This is the Winter Meetings, there should be plenty of stuff for reporters to report on, but nothing is happening. It's not really Ohtani's fault the rest of baseball decided to collectively sit on their thumbs until Ohtani signs, but him slow-playing everything is kinda the crux of the dead period

In other league, FA drives clicks and excitement, especially with the top of the line guys available. In MLB right now, its the opposite which absolutely does not help with MLB's perceived interest issues
