So much going on here. Kennedy Center Honors for Zeppelin and Jason Bonham makes a surprise appearance on drums. Pretty emotional. 

 

 

Yes. This performance is A+.

Building that home field advantage. Nice. 

The 7/9 thing is really important to getting true program momentum. I stopped going to the games a couple years ago because it was just no fun to watch your team lose over and over.   Looks like attendance is increasing with the wins.

Crap, I was going to school at UNLV and I was renting a house with a guy that was going to school and his wife, and she was a camera operator for the evening news at the local ABC station, and she scored me an all access press pass. Then the day before the show I somehow lost it!! I was panicking and it was terrible. I never could find it and missed everything. Even later on I never ever found it. It still frustrates me to think about. 

I haven’t even looked into dates I’m going to go or getting any passes, how hard they are to get, etc. But if not too hard, I’ll see if I can score 4 for 12/6 for you. Being that many shows out it shouldn’t be too bad. 

That's very sweet of you but I already have the tickets.

My favorite album of all time is Achtung Baby and the best concert I ever seen was Zoo TV as a 14 year old. Just me and my friends. No parents. 6th row. Sam Boyd Stadium. Will never forget it.

Been chasing that dragon ever since. Going to at least 2 sphere shows so far. Oct 18th and December 6th. My kids are coming with me to the December and we got 15th row. Hope it blows their minds as much as zootv did mine.

Let the cops and the system in general be racist profilers and sweep the streets of the usual suspects. 

Can there be civilization with real honest civil liberty?

I guess there are no libertarians in foxholes (PNW)?

Seriously...I'd hit golf balls into the Bellagio fountains if I could...and so would you.

No way, you could shank one and hit a hooker. Then her pimp is after you. NOT WORTH IT.

I just don't get how hard it is for the echo chamber to admit that Portland's left wing politics on crime are damaging businesses.

Instead we had a page and a half of dog pilling Bob and calling Target nasty liars lol

I often wonder why Las Vegas is still relatively fine. Supposedly we are a lib town run by demmykrats,  but we don't have the SF, Portland, L.A. scariness, at least to anything approaching that extent. Never worried about my car windows getting smashed, not worried about my cat converter getting cut, not worried about getting car-jacked etc, and I live in the downtown area.  I understand those towns I mentioned are still a notch or two bigger than Vegas, but for some reason, those types of crimes just haven't caught on in the culture here, for the most part.

Hooray for Hollywood!

NORTH HOLLYWOOD, LOS ANGELES (KABC) -- Police are asking for the public's help finding two suspects who assaulted a woman and stole her dog at a 7-Eleven in North Hollywood.

Disturbing video shows a man and a woman knock down and assault the victim inside the store and take her dog, an 11-year-old pit bull / Rhodesian ridgeback mix named Drake.

Man, if only we could hit golf balls into the Bellagio fountains. Oh, Reno...

Again, it is not rocket surgery.  And no, it is not just Target.  Ma and pa local shops are being devastated by theft in Portland as well.

Again, it is not rocket surgery.  Portland has decided that funding crime prevention and deterrence is bad, they have also decided that stealing really does not matter, and have decided there should be no consequences for that.

That is enabling theft.  Period.  Full stop.  It's not that hard, guys.  

This board has gone full retard echo chambers, and the Portland theft threads are the proof.

Let cops be cops again. Crack them heads.

It's 3,5 miles from the UNLV Bookstore to Allegiant Stadium 

It's 4.4 miles from the UNR Bookstore to the Grand Sierra Resort

So UNLV plays closer to home than UNR !

And the UNLV bookstore is on the end of the campus farthest from Allegiant!

Boy oh boy I better not find any threads with Reno turds giving UNLV sh*t for playing in an off-campus rental.

Unfortunately Lawlor isn’t long enough to convert an indoor practice facility. I suppose you could add to it.

Imagine there's no management.  It isn't hard to do. No free stock options.  No worker exploitation, too. 

Imagine all the workers living life in peace.  You may say I'm a dreamer, but I'm not the only onebluefan...

...getting nauseated

Last job I was at a VP told me he didn't want to be called a "manager", that he just had a role on the team, like anyone else.

Nobody is doing that in this situation. Auto workers are negotiating with CEOs as to how much the auto workers should be paid. 

This thread is full of discussion about what someone deserves or what is fair or unfair or deserved.

Telling workers or CEOs or anyone what they should or shouldn't be paid is commie talk. The market will bear what the market will bear. Pay is subject to simple market forces like supply and demand.
