So question. Being named co-conspirators, does that mean they were all charged w the same as DJT? -- nm - Jovian Aug 1, 17:15 3
- Thank you! -- nm - Jovian Aug 1, 17:56

  - recently. US politics in the 1700s/1800s were absolutely buck wild -- nm - hollywood big shot Aug 1, 16:23 1

  - Hard to see pitches when he's sitting on the bench. - Krusty Aug 1, 15:40
- Since wild cards, half or more teams have a shot at playoffs, so fewer teams willing to trade current stars fir future years -- nm - zeitgeist Aug 1, 15:12

    - Maybe no one wanted them? -- nm - Will Hunting Aug 1, 15:14 1
      - Bader, Peralta and IKF all have value and have done well this year. Gleyber has another year of arbitration but he should have been dealt anyway. - Krusty Aug 1, 15:20
- I was so wrapped up in the other thing happening at this time that I forgot about this other thing. :( - Jovian Aug 1, 15:01 1
