Why don't you try just buying tickets through your ADs office? They would be face value and you would be probably sitting right where your team enters the stadium.

If this is true, a google type search of her records is not possible. So....if Mika is asking for something that's not possible....how is it an indictment of him for not calling for it to be done?

Well, it will be interesting. Fred obviously knows way more about basketball than I do. One thing though that drives me crazy is when we are on offense and someone puts up a shot and all 5 guys immediately take off to the other end without even thinking about rebounding. If we are going to rebound with 5 guards and wings, then that can't be the case. I know you have to get back on defense. But....offensive rebounds are important especially when you're throwing up threes all game.

I've actually thought about trying it. I was told I shouldn't run anymore due to knee problems.

I can't read the article. Can you summarize?

I understand. I was agreeing with you.

I'm not going to hijack the thread about Yoga. Just was asking who it was. Now I have my answer and it's cool that he found Yoga after his injury to help him. Carry on.

Doesn't help. Never was into fake wrestling.

Who is DDP?

What @teachercd said. Do you have any knowledge that there was any indication before Frost signed them that they had this type of character?

I fail to see how this is a problem of Frost's culture. When he found out about it, he dismissed the players. Do you have knowledge that Frost knew these players would do such a thing? Do you know that he welcomed them to campus knowing they would do such a thing and turned a blind eye?

Well...I have no idea. My insurance company is the one that suggested the service and works closely with them. So, I would assume they aren't punishing other people because I'm using it. The insurance company isn't making less money because of it.

Nobody is denied coverage. If someone needs an MRI, they will price it at a number of hospitals. It's literally amazing. Sometimes something like this will be $10,000 at one hospital and $500 at another one somewhere. Maybe the employee will need to drive farther. But, he/she pays nothing in co pays or deductibles. They also provide information on quality of care for the procedure too. So, the employee isn't going to some cheap place and getting crappy care. The employee doesn't have to go to the cheaper place. But, it saves them a lot of money if they do. I also have an employee that is on a special medication for the rest of his life. They were billing us around $30,000 per month. This service got the drug company to provide it free. But.....according to the posted article above, that would be horrible because my insurance company is pushing back.

Bingo. These weirdos get their rocks off by thinking they are saving the world from a tyranical government and they want to parade around in their combat outfits and show off their guns. They love it that they think they can just walk into the capital building and threaten law makers.

I'm not a fan of health insurance companies. Believe me. I fully understand what you are saying. But, this situation is what needs to happen from insurance companies. They need to push back against rising bills from providers. Now...more company plans need to be doing what I'm doing from our side. For WAY too long, the insurance companies didn't give a crap what providers were billing them for. They would just pass that along to us in premiums. They had their margin. More and more companies like mine are pushing back against that now. The service I use is expanding their business every year and they work directly with my insurance company. In fact, we have it set up now that any claim over a certain amount goes directly to that service and they either OK the bill or negotiate it lower. Insurance companies are not saints by any stretch. But, demanding lower bills from providers is what they should be doing. And, to the bolded, that's why I'm for looking harder into it. I would rather pay $200,000 more in taxes to cover it than the $500,000 I'm paying now to the insurance company.

It’s amazing how thin skinned this administration is.

Interesting. I spend over $500,000 on healthcare a year. These actions from my insurance company has saved me and my employees money.

So, the stories I’ve read about people getting sick with COVID then getting tens of thousands of dollars of bills shouldn’t be questioned and pushed back against. And, as bad as COVID is, there are a lot of medical personnel that aren’t in the heat of battle. These cuts are going to be about normal health care when we get back to normal.

OK....here's my take on this. I didn't read the article....just the tweet. Insurance companies SHOULD be fighting back against doctor, hospital, medication cost. I've used United Health in the past for our insurance and didn't have a problem with them. Are they just supposed to pay whatever doctors bill them for so they can have another vacation home? The CEO raise is a valid complaint, but I don't know the specifics behind it. If United Health is fighting back against the high cost that providers are trying to bill patients...GREAT!!! I actually pay a service that works with our health insurance plan that does this exact same thing and it's saved us LOTS of money. They either find a cheaper provider for a service or negotiate a lower cost at the current provider. I even wave all deductibles and co-pays if the employee uses the less expensive provider. THAT'S how much it's saving us because providers are ripping us off. It's criminal what some providers try to get away with. OK...I went back and looked at the article. This is nothing but a healthcare industry hit piece because they're mad because United is fighting back against healthcare costs. The vast majority of his income was because he exercised stock options. That is not what the tweet implies. Now...I'm not a fan of health insurance companies and I'm on record of saying we need to seriously consider a single payer plan. But....this is nothing more than hit piece against someone providers don't like.

I had someone from Virginia explain to me that they think it's funny that West Virginia has adopted this song. It's actually about "western" Virginia. Meaning, the western part of Virginia. Not West Virginia.

It's like the entire issue is backwards. The people need to be holding the party accountable by criticizing it when it's warranted. Voters pushing back against wrong ideas or wrong things parties do is what make them change for the better. What we have are parties who feed the voters crap to keep them in the fold. Voters feel like they need to support the party similar to how they support their favorite football team and defend them at all cost. People get offended if someone says something bad about "their party". It's a sad situation.

Sitting here knowing nothing other than what has been reported. I would assume they were dismissed from the team when the team found out about it. The problem seems to be that the University was told about it and possibly didn't do anything...including telling the team about it. That's all why an investigation needs to be had and look at what documentation there is as to what took place.

oh the horror. Why can a Muslim from Kenya that was sent here to destroy America go golfing when I can't get a haircut?
