der meister 3,247 Posted November 6 Share Posted November 6 Random thoughts, November 5th edition: - My player doesn't suck, at least I don't think that yet. I'm happy with the developmental path, and Shevchenko is one point shy of his rookie total, with 31 fewer games played. Progress, right? But I think on a team that's not at the bottom of the standings and not lacking depth, he could be looking at 45 points right now instead of barely over 30. - It's Election Night here in the U.S., and I hate it. I've watched coverage for each of the last 4 presidential elections and I just can't stand it anymore. Politically, the U.S. has lost the plot. I'm passionate about politics and history, and really missed my calling by not being a History professor, I think, but the level of visceral hatred here is so stark that I'm strongly considering looking for a job in a different country regardless of the victor. But if you want to know who I blame for all of this, it's Ronald Reagan. - I haven't the foggiest idea what to do for theme week this time around. VHL Lore? I feel like I wasn't around during the best Lore years, which would be the early ones, and I'm not on Discord so I don't know any modern lore. I'm open to suggestions.

Interesting mandating the networks and radios to actually discuss controversial issues of public importance while also trying to force them to do it in a fair manner! I don`t understand why Ronald Reagan would veto that doctrine; if I am understanding what I am reading correctly!! der meister 1 Link to comment https://vhlforum.com/topic/152642-i-miss-listening-to-early-00s-fan-590-hockey-radio/#findComment-1043269 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don`t understand why Ronald Reagan would veto that doctrine; if I am understanding what I am reading correctly!! It's the one trickle down effect of his term that actually worked. Within a year, Rush Limbaugh had a coast to coast AM radio show that started poisoning minds with racist conspiracy theories. The line from that to the Alex Jones-types is plain.
