Big people talk about issues; small people talk about people
Pup - easy answer: rearrange the letters in Dotinga and you get : "Goad nit". And here's one that you'll appreciate: add Randy to Dotinga and you get "Randy anti-dog". :>)— July 12, 2013 6:20 a.m.
How corrupt is Congress? Here's an indication
Don, surely rampant greed has (long ago) overtaken this country and will prove to be our undoing. I don't see any way to get a handle on it. "These are the times that try men's souls." - Thomas Paine 1776— July 11, 2013 9:55 a.m.
U-T San Diego says it will have 24-hour national streaming TV network
Don, what's your estimate as to a time frame for a discernible re-channeling of those funds into those numerous decaying areas? If monies ever do get reversed, I'm guessing 10 years minimum before any tangible effects materialize.— July 3, 2013 10:02 a.m.
U-T San Diego says it will have 24-hour national streaming TV network
Yessir, I saw that one, somewhat tempered by the Filner/Goldsmith hissy-fit piece accompanying it, including the opening of the final paragraph "We think well of Goldsmith...."— July 3, 2013 9:19 a.m.

U-T must pay former carriers $3.18 million, will appeal
That you needed to read the column to discern who the players were is humorous in and of itself.— June 24, 2013 11:36 a.m.
Is "Enron by the Sea" tag apt again?
Welcome home, Puppy-dome! You had a few of us concerned.— June 23, 2013 11:15 p.m.
U-T must pay former carriers $3.18 million, will appeal
Yeah, Burl was no stiff. He possessed a grand sense of humor, which could take on an irreverent tone, quite amusing in certain settings.— June 23, 2013 1:14 p.m.
Why pro sports subsidies are c**p
Perhaps the lower prices occur more often with baseball teams, but as far as I know, the lone NFL team to drop prices last season was Tampa Bay, due to lagging attendance. And it seems that that inane blackout rule comes into play with ever-increasing regularity in taxpayer-subsidized locales with a soupçon of well-to-do football fans. I'm amazed that they get away with it. On second thought, I'm not amazed at all.— June 18, 2013 1:27 p.m.
Why pro sports subsidies are c**p
When are "sports" fans going to figure this game out? The ground rules are simple: filthy rich owner insists on usually unnecessary upgrades, or worse, a brand new colossus, threatening to move the franchise if not enacted, triggering mass hysteria amongst the fandom, who then head to the voting booth in order to bankroll the billionaire boy in his admirable crusade to liberate them from the alleged hordes lying in wait to sack their heroes. After the changes are in place, the insatiable despot either breaks up the team, keeping the bargain-basement players, and/or sends prices through the dome, for tickets, parking, food, beverages, memorabilia, etc., ad infinitum, in the process attracting more fatcats, and rendering the games unaffordable to the majority of the loyal fans who enabled the tyrant's swinishness in the *first* place! Oh, the horror.— June 18, 2013 11:20 a.m.
