Think back to 2006, last midterm w/ an unpopular war/GOP president. Where were the biggest House upsets? Places like IN, IA, KS, MN (Tim Walz!), NH, OH, WI, Upstate NY.
That's why I think the Midwest & places w/ lots of secular white voters are especially ripe for surprises.

A reminder that cheap travel is a major factor in super expensive ticket prices. In 1982, for the most part the only people who were going to a World Series game in Milwaukee lived in Milwaukee and would stand in line for tickets.

We were investigating Wedgewood for faking their data and emailed them for comment this morning, ahead of publishing the findings tomorrow. They are trying to cover up their fraud with the "we were doing a social experiment" excuse.

The comeback was nice, but the reality is that Washington over its last 18 regular-season games now is 3-14-1 with a point differential of -168.
This team is so far from what it should be in Season No. 3 of the Adam Peters/Dan Quinn regime.
Unacceptable and inexcusable.

No team in the NFC East has won a game in 2 weeks, this the first time this has ever happened in a division since the AFL-NFL merger in 1970.

Sometimes I eat dinner over the sink.
Jaylen Brown says he bought a gold harp, and now has someone come over twice a week to play it as the sun goes down while his chef cooks dinner
“My favorite purchase, I think my best, my most favorite purchase was, I bought a harp. I bought like a gold harp. I got it upstairs too…”
“I got a harpist that come play like twice a week. While the sun is going down, chef is in the kitchen. You know what I mean? Just…”
