@EytanWallace @RepBera Nothing says unity quite like walking out on a speech for all three chambers
English

Congressmember Ami @RepBera (D-Sacramento) shared with me why he will not attend President Donald Trump's state-of-the-union address this evening.
"I chose not to attend because I think this will be a very combative state-of-the-union," Bera said.
"The president already announced it will be a very long speech. Even talking to my Republican colleagues, they do not expect him to stay on the teleprompter. I think he's going to go after Democrats...I hope he proves me wrong. I hope he brings us together as a nation."
Rocklin GOP Congressmember @KevinKileyCA (R-Rocklin) and El Dorado Hills Congressmember @RepMcClintock (R-El Dorado Hills) confirmed they are attending the speech in person.

@jessetemple When was the last time there was this much of a pessimistic/dispassionate feeling before a badger football season? 1991?

Wisconsin's season opener is just one week away. Time to open up the Badgers mailbag.
How many wins will Wisconsin have this season? Biggest questions? Over/unders? And a whole lot more. badgerconnect.com/how-many-wins-…

what makes this financial crisis different than 2008?
then: dems/gop worked together, saving the world w/ the help of the chinese. the g20 was working. the fed had high credibility. the president was competent.
now: we're playing w/ a new set of cards.

@Cernovich harder to frame 1 to 1 given breakdown into four categories—first slide was v clear while second is all over the map (most want to keep support as is, somewhat more want to reduce than to increase).

@franfraschilla @jjfuller72 100%. The NBA is correctly struggling at a historic level so let’s emulate them as much as possible.

I’m thrilled that a voice like Jay’s is advocating for 4 quarters because he carries weight. Obviously those who have been around FIBA basketball have been on board with this for a long time. Many good reasons for this. Only negative we ever hear is the networks (mine included) don’t want elimination of a TV timeout. C’mon!
Awful Announcing@awfulannouncing
Jay Bilas on Men's College Basketball rules: "We need to go to quarters. We're the only game of basketball played in the world that doesn't have quarters... We have to change the replay rule... [Refs] spend more time watching TV than they do officiating the game..." 🏀🎙️

@TomOatesWSJ As much as I despise Tom Oates—he’s right here.

@IKE_Packers They really don’t need to worry about this as long as Fickell is there

The Packers’ ignorance toward Wisconsin players in the NFL is appalling. It’s like they have a personal vendetta against obvious talent close to home.
A list of players overlooked by Green Bay
• TJ Watt (NFL Sack leader)
• Zack Baun (heart of the Eagles defense)
• Leo Chenal (Hyper Athlete, 2x Super Bowl Champ)
• Andrew Van Ginkel (do it all pro bowl LB)
• Alec Ingold (Elite FB, ultimate leader, Tyreek’s MVP, Gute preferred Deguara)
• Tyler Biadasz (Jayden Daniels’ stud Center)
• Jonathan Taylor (Gute preferred AJ Dillon)
Not to mention others like Keeanu Benton, Nick Herbig, Joe Tippman, Jake Ferguson, Isaiahh Loudermilk, Logan Bruss, David Edwards, Ryan Ramczyk, Rob Havenstein, Joe Schobert, Travis Frederick and so many more.
At some point Gute has to stop overthinking it. Yes the current Wisconsin program has fallen on hard times, so we wouldn’t necessarily recommend drafting the current talent, but all this talent from the old era is SMART, athletic, fundamentally sound, and all around GOOD football players.
Hopefully some of them find their way to Titletown
