Some Early Access games are closer to
a finished state than others.

Here's a few things to remind you why it's silly: The Rangers won 10 games in a row last year, there were two week stretches of last season where the Angels were better
than the Astros, the Angels have yet to play a serious contender, as already
stated the Reds were 1st in the NL Central to start the season, the Brewers were in first until a little bit after the all start break (if I remember correctly), literally thousands of
other examples of teams starting hot and then
finishing outside of the playoffs.
Although it will be incredibly difficult to ever match his contributions on the pitch, it's vitally important for a former club legend, like Henry, to publicly address his concerns regarding the direction of this club... regardless of those who still feel that Henry has some sort of agenda due to the backlash he received following earlier comments he made on air regarding Arsenal, he has an intimate understanding of the game, he knows the fans are being hosed and he feels some sense of obligation, both professionally and personally, to tell it like he sees it... much like I've continually expressed over the last couple months, this team isn't evolving under this current ownership / management team... instead we are currently experiencing a «stagnant» phase in our club's storied history... a fact that can't be hidden by simply changing the formation or bringing in one or two individuals... this team needs fundamental change in the way it conducts business both on and off the pitch or it will continue to slowly devolve into a second tier club... regardless of the euphoria surrounding our escape act on Friday evening, as it stands, this club is more likely to be fighting for a Europa League spot for the foreseeable future
than a top 4
finish... we can't hope for the failures of
others to secure our place in the top 4, we need to be the manufacturers of our own success by doing whatever is necessary to evolve as an organization... if Wenger, Gazidis and Kroenke can't take the necessary steps following the debacle they manufactured last season, their removal is imperative for our future success... unfortunately, I strongly believe that either they don't know how to proceed in the present economic climate or they are unwilling to do whatever it takes to turn this ship around... just look at the current
state of our squad, none of our world class players are under contract beyond this season, we have a ridiculous wage bill considering the results, we can't sell our deadwood because we've mismanaged our personnel decisions and contractual obligations, we haven't properly cultivated our younger talent and we might have become one of the worst clubs ever when it comes to way we handle our transfer business, which under Dein was one of our greatest assets... it's time to get things right!!!
Kate, I just got
finished ranting in the
other direction — a tiny bag of faro from Trader Joes which, when cooked, was waaaay more food

stated.
Citizens stuck in blue
states like California now have no recourse to escape the failed test prep approach
other than to get their children into private schools — and if they lack the resources to pay for tuition a second time (since they still must pay taxes for the second class teaching their local
state schools are dispensing), their children will be doomed to fall behind the international competition, since that is a consequence of the second missed opportunity of the past decade, the Common Core standards that doom American children to fall 2 - 3 years behind their peers in Asia and northern Europe by the time they
finish high school.
It is more comprehensive
than Delaware's Shelter Standards Law which reduced killing statewide by over 60 % (over 90 % for cats), allowing the
state to
finish with a 91 % live release rate for dogs, 92 % for cats, and 96 % for
other animals.
