  • If he’s breaking news of any kind it’ll be at top of the day, 9 or 10 LA time (especially if he’s sitting on something juicy, that others may now be trying to figure out, he won’t want to wait until 6pm his time).

  • @thedove , I never understood letting Hyman walk. What does he make? $5.5? They didn't read the tea leaves well on that one. And yep, I'm as concerned as you about the rising teams all around us. Shanahan came in here saying he'd change the cu…

  • I'd go with Thunderball, day and night. The original film is richer in exotic sexiness of the Bahamas, Connery looking his best, and his performance was executed with intoxicating charisma and coolness; the women were drop dead, and Domino was ce…
