Perhaps WCPO thinks this is literal?

I thought interfering with a president's signature policies was the entire point of the Major Questions Doctrine?

The Acela corridor is too tight-knit to break up, so I'd swap Philly and Toronto (Central can then still have the Trillium Cup).

The rest make sense except for North which not compact. STL and Vancouver are 1,775 miles apart and North teams are in two *non-contiguous* time zones.

Speculating, it might be people rather than the grass. I.e. If the SDSU game ends late, then many stadium ops workers (security, concessions, cleanup) have to stay well after midnight. Wouldn't be surprised if Calif. law or union contracts say they can't be called back soon enough to open for SDFC.

And all of these people hold two ideas in their head simultaneously:

✅ Nuclear weapons are completely insane.

✅ There are rational reasons they must do the mission they're doing.

These ideas are diametrically opposed in many ways. And its that opposition that makes nukes SO interesting to me.

all of these people would do well to learn something about “cheap” and “costly” grace. no one is saying that platner is irredeemable, but that some things are a bridge too far for someone seeking a public trust. if he feels truly contrite, he can work on himself and his community and try again.

Stop committing so many fouls
