We are only talking about a possible three year deal. Lets ride PS for all its worth while times are good. Eventually the profits may hit a hiccup but I am willing to bet my PS that it will be more than three years out.

“Brett, speaking only for myself, I agree with your point that the principle of peaceful, non-violent protest and the observance of the rule of law is of utmost importance in any society. MLK, Gandhi, Mandela, and all great opposition leaders throughout history have always preached this precept. Further, it is critical that in any democracy investigation must be completed and due process must be honored before any government or police members are judged responsible.
That said, my greater source of personal concern, outrage and sympathy beyond this particular case is focused neither upon one night’s property damage nor upon the acts, but is focused rather upon the past four-decade period during which an American political elite have shipped middle class and working class jobs away from Baltimore and cities and towns around the U.S. to third-world dictatorships like China and others, plunged tens of millions of good hard-working Americans into economic devastation, and then followed that action around the nation by diminishing every American’s civil rights protections in order to control an unfairly impoverished population living under an ever-declining standard of living and suffering at the butt end of an ever-more militarized and aggressive surveillance state.
The innocent working families of all backgrounds whose lives and dreams have been cut short by excessive violence, surveillance, and other abuses of the Bill of Rights by government pay the true price, an ultimate price, and one that far exceeds the importance of any kids’ game played tonight, or ever, at Camden Yards. We need to keep in mind people are suffering and dying around the U.S., and while we are thankful no one was injured at Camden Yards, there is a far bigger picture for poor Americans in Baltimore and everywhere who don’t have jobs and are losing economic civil and legal rights, and this makes inconvenience at a ball game irrelevant in light of the needless suffering government is inflicting upon ordinary Americans.”

I think it's OK to speculate on whether one anonymous poster is really the same as a previous anonymous poster.

There's no question bender is tsquare, I just can't imagine why he/she just doesn't bring back tsquare.

Reliable source:

1) The Company wants a deal by the summer.
2) Pay-banding is not on the table.
3) "Monetizing," PS is.
4) The Company wants to go after sick-leave abuse (and as usual the "abuse" is due to 2% of the pilot group.)

Maybe he put up some epic Duck cheerleader pics he was holding onto for a while and ended up getting permanently banned.

Just sayin.

Nothing you've said about C2012 has come to pass sailingfun. Nothing. Your predictions prior and after have never come true. Accuracy is something you don't do.



Nobody has said that sailingfun. You continuously accuse people of having said that, but only you have said it.



Show me this statement of yours sailingfun.



Did you mean past? :rolleyes:
