If you think that was good acting then I don't know what to say.
Apart from that, the match was great. The sweet chin music into the pedigree made me almost wet my pants. I thought it was all over.
I don't know whether it's just me but as an in-ring performer, I've enjoyed Michaels much more since his return in 2002. I realize you're referring to his "acting;" I just wanted to point it out.
The only matches that hold up in comparison to his post-2002 work: Ladder Match I, Iron Man Match, and vs. Bulldog @ KOTR '96. I like the Cell match against the Undertaker, but I really can't stick to a rating for that match. I'm not THAT high on Mind Games. There is also the No DQ match against Nash and I think that's one awesome match. Yeah, pretty much.
As a character, of course, Michaels has been pale since his return, but that doesn't bother me as much as it may bother others. Still, for me, SummerSlam 2002 and WrestleMania XIX, XX, 21, and XXVI > everything else Michaels has done. Of course, SummerSlam 2002 and WrestleMania XXVI are very, very special.
Continuing the TV match discussions, I adore two of Michaels' TV matches: against Benoit from Raw in Pheonix (2004) and against Triple H from Raw in San Antonio (2003). Splendid stuff.

A FAST-FOOD chain in Wrexham has installed CCTV cameras in a bid to combat anti-social behaviour.
As reported in Wednesday's Leader, North Wales Police have been called out to 100 incidents near McDonald's on Regent Street alone since May 2013, of which 40 were after midnight.
The store is often regarded as the end to a night out for many weekend revellers in Wrexham.
They call in for food after a night out in the town centre's bars and clubs.
The force is calling for help from burger bars across North Wales to help, after Chief Inspector Neil Maxwell described being called to offences at fast-food outlets as 'a drain on vital resources'.
McDonald's confirmed they now have a number of measures in place in their Wrexham resteraunt to prevent anti-social behaviour breaking out, including CCTV cameras, security personnel in the building on weekend nights, and they are linked up with the police via a town centre radio link.
A spokesman for McDonald's said: "We currently have a number of measures in place on Regent Street in Wrexham to encourage good behaviour in and around the restaurant, including CCTV, security personnel present in-store on a Friday and Saturday night along with being part of the town centre radio link.
"Our security department will continue to work closely with the restaurant team and the local police on this issue."

Jay Goldman was a standout tennis player for the Arizona Wildcats between 2007 and 2011. At Arizona, Goldman competed primarily at the top of the lineup. Goldman traveled to Tucson following a storied junior career out of Worceser, Mass., and the IMG Academy Tennis Program.
Questions and Answers
Harry Cicma (HC): What were your best memories playing for Arizona?
Jay Goldman (JG): I had many highlights, but the one that stands out is when Arizona beat UCLA for the first time in school history, and I was able to contribute by winning singles and doubles.
HC: What did you enjoy the most about college tennis?
JG: It was the first time that I experienced team camaraderie and support from fellow players. Many of the matches had a Davis Cup atmosphere. I've never experienced so many people show up to root against me, but it was nice to have a cohesive group of teammates that supported each other through travel and competition.
HC: Your brother, Michael, played NCAA Tennis for Assumption College, how did he help your career?
JG: Mike is four years older than me and was the first person I really wanted to beat. In all seriousness, he was instrumental in my training before I went to Bollettieri. We hit every day; he took me to tournaments, scouted the competition, and was always there to support me.
HC: You've had the chance to train with Serena Williams, Maria Sharapova, Jesse Levine, and Kei Nishikori, what was that experience like?
JG: I know Jesse and Kei very well; we had lot of great practices and matches and pushed each other very hard. I'm really happy for their success. Serena is a really nice person. After training, Serena and her boyfriend at the time took me out for a great meal. I can't say enough how genuine she is. And Maria doesn't know the difference between the US Open center court or playing on practice court 22 at Bollettieri. She is a ferocious competitor.
JG: Right now I'm on the mend from a painful overuse tennis injury in my foot. It has been over two years that I've struggled with this injury. I've gone to many of the top orthopedic Surgeons and it looked as if I was headed towards a surgery that would potentially alleviate the pain but would prevent me from competing in tennis again. Fortunately, a previous coach and friend Rod Moreira recommended I visit Dr. Marc Darrow, a prolotherapist in L.A. After only a few treatments, I'm very optimistic that I will be able to avoid surgery and renew my iPIN number soon. I can't wait to be back on the court again.
In the meantime, I'm working at Good As Gold Coffee - my family's coffee service business. I'm currently helping to update our new website.
HC: What advice would you give a young player looking to play top Division I or pro tennis?
JG: To me, the first question becomes what would you like to achieve in the sport of tennis? Many of my friends used their tennis skills to get a scholarship at a great school and start learning about the field they want a career in. This is the best scenario to have the most enjoyable college experience. If your eventual goal is to play pro tennis and you don't need to risk the house financially to do so, don't go to college. There will be a college that will happily take your money when you've finished the tour.
From 16 to 19 I trained at the IMG Nick Bollettieri Tennis Academy in Bradenton, Florida. It is an oasis for the serious tennis player. I worked with the best coaches, trainers, sports psychologists, and hit with some of the most talented players in the world. The program was tennis-specific, challenging, kept me injury free and was geared to make me successful.
From my college experience at Arizona, I found that the focus changed from my personal success to the success of the coaches and to the team. There is pressure both from your teammates and coaches to play when you are injured and participate in practices and conditioning that is not specific for your personal needs or body type. We worked with the trainers who normally work with football players, and I believe they trained us improperly for tennis. I think this training resulted in more injuries than necessary.
Some of my friends have had similar experiences, while others have had positive experiences. It is up to you to do your due diligence and really research the school, coaches, trainers, schedule, and past players - who have nothing to lose by telling the truth. There are some college graduates who still have fulfilling pro experiences after college. Good Luck!
Editor's Note: The University of Arizona has a new group of strength coaches that have been put in place since Goldman graduated in 2011.

The MTV 2010 VMAs: We were born this way, baby!
The first presenter of the night was Ellen DeGeneres for for Best Female Video: Amazing singer, incredible dancer, fashion icon, party girl, and Southern cutie. But enough about Ellen, Lady Gaga wins for "Bad Romance," thanks the soldiers who have been discharged and, most importantly, all the gays who re-made her video.
Since this is a lesbian site, it's only fair to bring up Bieber's performance. I swear that he's actually the dyke who walked out of my roommate's bed this morning and used my mouthwash. Wearing the same outfit. Coincidence or rip-off? And gross – get your own mouthwash!
MTV made it a point to pair up the two women in music that have capitalized more on faux-lesbianism than even Justin Bieber: Katy Perry and Nicki Minaj. Nicki's my girl, but I will forever have a bad taste in my mouth (not only because Bieber the Lesbian used my mouthwash) from her playing games with my heart. They obvi presented the award for Best Male Video because, god forbid, should anybody think that they're vagetarians. Then they'd never sell any additional lezploitation songs! I was too annoyed to pay attention to who won, but it was probably somebody who refers to both Perry and Minaj as "bitches." Hooray!
You know who's really cool, though? Florence + The Machine. Homegirl was a vision onstage, with "Dog Days Are Over" providing a much-needed respite from the rest of the auto-tuned, overly produced acts (over-compensation much?) before and after her.

Whispers Tour
By the start of last year, Mike Rosenberg knew his life was about to change. To what extent, he had no idea, which was probably just as well. Had someone told the Brighton-born singer/songwriter, familiar to millions as Passenger that he would top the charts in 20 countries during 2013, he might have gone out of his mind. That his bewitching, break-up ballad Let Her Go took its time to win over the world – it became a hit in mainland Europe in the autumn of 2012 and reached the Top 5 of the Billboard chart in February 2014 – allowed Passenger to process his success, get used to the size of crowds coming to see him and, crucially, continue to write and record heartbreakingly beautiful music.
Whispers is Passenger's sixth studio album. Its oldest songs date back to before the mayhem began. Although he didn't know it when he wrote it, the title track captures the chaos in his head when Let Her Go started to snowball. Even the songs most recently written have evolved by being played live dozens of times, at shows and on streets everywhere from Amsterdam to Australia.
With Whispers, you could talk tales all day, but it's better to just listen to the songs. Let Her Go's success continues to spiral – in 2013, it was the ninth most Shazamed song in the world and the best selling British single; it recently soundtracked the most popular ad at the Superbowl; at last count it had 222 million views on YouTube – but for Passenger, it has simply opened some doors. Thousands, rather than hundreds, now come to his shows and know all of the words to most of his songs. He even continues to busk, as he has since he went solo in 2009.

DEFINITION of 'Forward Pricing'
A Securities and Exchange Commission regulation that requires that investment companies price all of their buy and sell orders of fund shares according to the next net asset value (NAV). This valuation process is for open-end mutual fund transactions in which the mutual fund itself is constantly issuing and redeeming mutual fund shares at the most recent NAV per share.
INVESTOPEDIA EXPLAINS 'Forward Pricing'
Forward pricing is implemented when a trade is placed to buy or sell shares of an open-end mutual fund. This occurs because open-end funds only recalculate the net asset value of their mutual fund shares after the market closes each trading day. As a result, any mutual fund order placed by an investor can't be quoted at a previous net asset value price, and must instead be given according to the next computed net asset valuation.

Americans are projected to spend more this Easter than last year, which is good news for several Chattanooga retailers relying on a early bump in spring sales.
Last year, the average American spent about $118 on Easter-related purchases such as chocolate eggs, Sunday dresses, greeting cards and flowers. This year, the National Retail Federation expects consumers to bump up their spending to about $131 for the average person, or nearly $14.6 billion in total nationwide spending.
There's still one shopping week till the big white bunny comes, and Candy Craze at Hamilton Place mall has already seen droves of shoppers over the past two weeks preparing for egg hunts.
"When we get to holidays such as Valentine's, Christmas and Easter which deal with candy, there's a big increase," employee Ronald Harmon said.
The small shop at the mall's food court entrance sees between $500 and $600 in sales on an average weekday, Harmon said. In the past few weeks, daily sales have increased to between $700 and $800, with Jelly Belly jelly beans a top seller.
Weekend sales have seen a similar spike. During off-seasons, an extremely good Saturday would bring in $1,500 in sales, he said, but the past couple weekends saw between $1,600 and $2,000.
Just because Easter shoppers are spending more doesn't mean they're not still looking for deals.
"That's one of the reasons why I came here," said Catherine Dendy, who drove all the way from her LaFayette home to the Gunbarrel Road Target to get a good deal on Webkins toys for her kids' Easter baskets.
Trevor Roelfs, a Target manager and five-year employee, wasn't surprised to hear Dendy came out for toys. During his time at the retailer they have become increasingly important.
"It's been bigger for the toys, not so much the candy anymore. They're steering clear from the unhealthy stuff," he said. "There have been a lot of guests looking for the larger-ticket items for their kids. One came in looking for a motorized scooter."
Jamie Lockard wasn't in the market for anything that pricey as she strolled the store's aisles Wednesday, but she was looking to buy toys related to pro wrestling for her 5-year-old daughter's Easter basket.
"She's really into WWE [World Wide Entertainment] right now because of my husband, so he wants to get her some figures," she said. "She loves John Cena, so it's probably going to be John Cena."
Lockard and Dendy both picked up some candy along with their toys, but neither were looking to increase their Easter budget above 2010's.
"I'll probably do about what I did last year, which was less than I had done in years before," she said. "We also have four kids. It's not as easy to do much."
The two mothers' thrifty mentalities seem pervasive among holiday shoppers. Belk employee Margie Kilgore, who has worked in clothing retail for more than 30 years, said she's selling more Easter dresses than in the past. Still, she doesn't know if the increased sales volume will be reflected in the company's bottom line because of deep discounts.
"We sell more now than we did back then," she said, "but it's the markdowns that we have."
Phillip Davis wasn't shopping for dresses when he came out to the mall, though he said he did find a good deal on an Easter outfit for his 6-year-old son.
Low prices are always nice, but Davis said when it comes to the holidays, he doesn't mind spending a little extra on the boy.
"I'll cut corners on other things, but I want him to have as cherished memories on the holidays as I had," he said. "That's what he'll remember."

Next week school bells will ring and the 2010-11 school year will begin. Some kids will welcome it, others won't. Parents also will likely have mixed feelings about the start of another academic year.
The great Democratic revolution of 2008 is entering its pitiful stage.
Tuesday, July 20, was election day and according to Liberty County Supervisor of Elections Ella Golden, everything went smoothly. Liberty County voters were able move efficiently through the voting process and choose the candidates of their choice. However, when it came to actually reporting the results from each precinct, "smooth" isn't the first word that comes to mind.
What, you may ask, am I going to say this week about the primary elections? The answer: nothing.
Georgia education headlines are too often made for wrong reasons. National test scores that disappoint, high schools that underperform and the recent Atlanta Public Schools cheating scandal do nothing to recommend Georgia as forward-thinking and a place to create a business and raise a family. Embracing an aggressive plan to fast forward choices in education would seem like a no-brainer.
When it comes to the tax climate, Georgia ranks middle of the road or worse in several categories, according to the Tax Foundation. The state ranks 29th (50 being the worst) in the State Business Tax Climate Index, a judge of the state tax structure's promotion of economic growth, and has the 23rd highest top income tax rate at 6 percent. The middle of the road is better than the ditch, but why not strive for the fast lane?
We don't know who will be the next governor of Georgia. But we do know he -- or she -- faces a mountain of challenges and a wide range of issues that require leadership.
I met Ian Adleman when he, as a reporter for the Waterside News, was covering one of The Dolphin Project surveys. Being an old codger I am totally distrustful of anyone under the age of 40. Ian is one of those exceptions you run across every now and then that gives you hope. Now that is saying a lot for a displaced snow bird bumming a ride on my boat!
If there's a characteristic American trait, it's moving ahead. Our great 19th-century chronicler, Alexis de Tocqueville, noted how Americans would leave their new homes - onto the next thing! - even before they had a chance to finish the roofs.
Just when you might have thought things were getting better, state Labor Commissioner Michael Thurmond goes and rains on the parade.
It's been one year since Senior U.S. District Judge Paul Magnuson ruled in a lawsuit filed by Alabama and Florida that the Army Corps of Engineers exceeded their authority in allowing water withdrawals from Lake Lanier to meet the water supply needs of metro Atlanta's 3.5 million residents. In his order, Judge Magnuson made it clear that the only way to meet the needs of the metro area is for Congress to authorize Lake Lanier for water supply. The judge stayed his ruling until 2012 to give Georgia time to seek that authorization.
I am unalterably, unequivocally, and un-any other word you can conjure up opposed to school vouchers. I consider them somewhere south of Gov. George E. Perdue's beloved horse barn that got tanked earlier this year.
Many people, whether they admit it or not, have considered ways to serve others. To many, the desire to help fellow men, women and children is a continuous voice or vision, often brought on by a life-changing event.
Editor, Hinesville Military Affairs Committee's second Veterans Salute was Nov. 1 at Bryant Commons, 438 West Oglethorpe Highway. It was a cold and windy day, but that did not stop or hinder our spirit.
Show support for Marne Division Monday at listening session
Editor, The members of Hinesville Military Affairs Committee would like to thank everyone in the community who contributed to the silent auction held during the second annual Veterans Salute on Nov. 1.
This is a story I shared with some of you a couple of years ago, but given the well-deserved tributes this week to our veterans, it seems an appropriate time to share it with all of you. It is about a terrorist; an honest-to-God terrorist. Not only does he not deny the appellation, he's proud of it.
At the Department of Veterans Affairs, we have one of the most noble and inspiring missions in government. I accepted this job and joined this mission to better serve you - our veterans - and improve the delivery of the care and benefits you have earned. It is our privilege to serve you, and I have made clear that as we move forward as a department, we will judge the success of all our efforts against a single metric - the outcomes we provide for veterans.
Over the years, I've crossed paths with many who were extremely successful as well as some who were such miserable failures that, as Mama liked to say, they "ain't worth the breath they draw."
I recently saw a meme posted to a social-media site that said something along the lines of "Having children: Your way of showing the world you no longer intend to be on time - ever."

All of that rain fall has wreaked havoc on 72nd Street in La Vista. So much so, that Friday, crews were forced to make the road one lane in each direction for a 6 block stretch in order to make repairs.
The stretch of road undergoing repairs is from Michelle Avenue to James Avenue on 72nd Street.
Crews will be working in the area until at least Monday, so La Vista Police Chief Bob Lausten warns that drivers should expect delays.
Street flooding was common on a number of metro streets Friday afternoon as the latest round of heavy rain hammered the pavement.
Several inches of rain filled the intersection of 42nd and Leavenworth slowing the sloshing traffic.

MONROE, Mich. (AP) -- A high school teacher in Monroe is on paid leave as district officials investigate a report that a band student's ankles were duct-taped to a chair to help with her posture.
Jefferson Schools Superintendent Craig Haugen tells the Monroe News for a story Saturday that he received a complaint this week against the teacher for "reported corrective measures in the classroom."
Haugen did not release the band teacher's name. He says in a statement that the teacher has been told not to have contact with students or come onto school district property.
Several students are petitioning the school to allow the teacher to return for the band's trip next month to Florida.
Band booster and parent Debbie Barron says the teacher stresses proper posture to better play instruments.

Punjabi cuisine is associated with food from the Punjab region of India and Pakistan. It shares several characteristics with the cuisine of Kashmir and other adjacent states. Punjabi cuisine is diverse, and varies regionally. The local cuisine is influenced by the agriculture and farming lifestyle that has been prevalent throughout Punjab for centuries, and supported by locally grown staple foods. Many of the most popular elements of Indian cuisine as it is marketed to non-Indian customers (such as tandoor, naan, pakora, and vegetable dishes with paneer) are derived from Punjab.[citation needed]
Food cooked in the villages Punjab are often cooked in animal fats. While many Punjabi dishes are common in other regions of India and Pakistan, some dishes are exclusive to Punjab, including sarson da saag, tandoori chicken, shami kebab, and makki di roti.

Graeme Bowman was put on this planet for two reasons: To stop people falling asleep during conferences and events To inspire people to think more creatively How does Graeme stop people falling asleep? As a Corporate Comedian, Master of Ceremonies and Hoax Speaker, Graeme has many years of experience at turning ho-hum into ha-ha at conferences, product launches and awards presentations. An audience that is laughing is not sleeping: At an awards evening or gala dinner, nothing brings the audience together like a good laugh. Humour can help to launch a new product in a way that is quirky and memorable. Laughter gives conference audiences a mental breather, when it is interspersed throughout the business sessions. Humour can be used to address serious issues through interactive Devil's Advocate Characters. How does Graeme inspire people to think more creatively? As a Lateral Thinking Trainer, accredited by the DeBono Institute, Graeme offers an entertaining keynote address that will motivate your people to challenge their current thinking style, then give them valuable tips on how to think more creatively, in order to kick-start the process of innovation. This keynote, ââ¬ËHow to Suck Great Ideas Out of Your Head', can also extend into a workshop. Can Graeme mix and match these types of presentations? Graeme's great advantage over other speakers, comedians and MCs lies in the versatility he brings to each event. For example, at a 2-3 day conference, he may appear at the welcome dinner as a hoax speaker, then next morning deliver his creativity keynote, and also MC the entire conference, sprinkling impressions, humorous songs and comic routines throughout. Graeme can also combine his hoax and MC talents, to create a Hoax MC character ââ¬â very popular at awards presentations. Or he can combine a hoax speech with a genuine creativity keynote ââ¬â a truly unique conference presentation called ââ¬ËUncork Your Creative Genie'.

Bust out the catnip, because Matilda the Algonquin lobby cat is a prisoner of the check-in desk no more. Diner's Journal has it that the DOH-dissed feline is now roaming free once again well, sort of. To keep Matilda from trespassing into areas where food and drink are served, the hotel has installed electric fencing on the cat. So now if she tries to steal over to the bar for a slurp of milk, she'll be stopped by a round of electroshock. All's well that ends well enough, we suppose, but we doubt Dal's ocelot ever got that kind of treatment at the St. Regis. [Diner's Journal/NYT, Earlier]
Algonquin Lobby Cat Can Roam Again — With ConditionsBy Jenny Miller
Matilda is midtown's latest electroshock patient.

- Developer: Obsidian Entertainment
- Genre(s): Role-Playing

Score distribution:
Positive: 72 out of 81
Mixed: 9 out of 81
Negative: 0 out of 81
Oct 20, 2010The map, though similar-sized to Fallout 3's, seems more jam-packed than ever – New Vegas is less a sandbox game than whole beach to play around in.
Oct 20, 2010Fallout: New Vegas does betray the age of its engine every now and then, but it also shows why it has aged so well, powering the same tasty mix of great gameplay, endless side-quests and a world to get lost in.
Dec 19, 2010From the warring factions you can align with to the companions you can recruit, no adventure will ever be the same the numerous times you play through.
Oct 21, 2010New Vegas is like a Huge DLC, an enormous add-on. But the formula is still fresh and deep.
Oct 27, 2010Fallout: New Vegas is an epic journey that matches the magnitude of Fallout 3.
Oct 21, 2010And so it is Fallout: New Vegas is both playable and enjoyable. It's variable too - Hardcore mode, playing a super dumb character, ramping up your charisma and speech from the beginning - all of these will result in a vastly different experience when you play the game.
Oct 22, 2010Creatively, New Vegas gets almost everything right. Mechanically and technically, it's a tragedy. So, it's a simultaneously rewarding and frustrating game, the gulf between what it is and what it could be a sizeable stretch indeed.
Score distribution:
Positive: 158 out of 209
Mixed: 31 out of 209
Negative: 20 out of 209
Oct 19, 2010Simply an excellent addition to the Fallout canon. An imaginative and extremely crafted story, numerous and refreshingly enjoyable side quests and engaging and thoughtful characters. This game will appeal to fans of Fallout 3 primarily, yet occasional references to previous games in the series to keep die-hard fans happy. By allowing Obsidian to create this game, it allows them to strike a near perfect balance of the complete Fallout experience. Many hours of mine have already been sunk into this game, and if you are looking for a thought-provoking enthralling video game adventure then look no more. This might sound sycophantic and gushing, yet this game really has brought a smile to my face. Roll on Fallout 4!… Expand
Jun 3, 2013It's basically more Fallout 3, which I don't mind one bit, as Fallout 3 is my favorite game of all time. Where it lacks in story, it makes up in other innovations like customized weapons and ammo. The hunger aspect is also interesting, though I didn't use it too much. Definitely worth picking up if you like Fallout.… Expand
Mar 9, 2011As a huge Fallout 3 fan this was one of my most anticipated games of 2010 I have to admit I was slightly disappointed with this game, don't get me wrong it's still a great experience and adds tons of new features that set it apart from Fallout 3, but for every good thing it has there's a set back that follows, the graphics can range from great to down right ugly, the sound is fantastic with great voice acting, sound effects, and soundtrack, the new features like fraction reputation and weapon mods work fantastic, but others like iron sights don't, and other great changes like tons of new weapons, enemies, and distractions like gambling will make you drool, and the sheer size of the map and all of the new locations will have people who want to 100% this busy for countless hours as will the multiple ways the story will play out, now for the main downsides, quests aren't as satisfying to complete, while there are many locations there mostly just one room buildings with little to no loot that aren't fun to explore, the number off bugs and glitches has greatly increased, and it's just not as fun as Fallout 3 was, I gave almost 300 hours of my life to that game and still find fun in going back to it, and I'm not even 90 hours into this one and I'm already putting it down to play other games, even though it's not as good I still recommend this to hardcore fans like myself, just don't expect it to be better or even as good.… Expand
Dec 19, 2010This game had an awful lot to contend with seeing as fallout 3 was so good and to be honest......it did it. The game is equally as good as fallout 3 with new features to go with it. The campaign holds more variaty also as i myself have so far discovered 4 different endings all with thrilling conclusions. I think its to be said that there are alot of problems with corrupt saves and what have you. I have not experianced this as of yet but as far as complaints go there seem to be alot of them. However im rating this as to what i have experianced and therefore im going to have have to say its pretty epic and was definitely a tough contender for game of the year which was won by Red Dead Redemption if anybody was intrested!… Expand
May 6, 2011A decent rpg game, not as good as its predecessor fallout 3. The in game graphics are fantastic, leveling up system is good also the combat system works well. Unfortuneatly like many recent rpg,s the storyline was poor. Towards the end of the game i wasnt sure what i was supposed to be doing, because there where so many side quests and the main theme of the main quest was uninteresting. All in all a decent game just wish the main storyline could have been better.… Expand
May 22, 2012This game was released BROKEN, and with ample time to fix it with patches it is still unacceptably BROKEN.
The only reason the critics gave it a higher score is that there's practically no such thing as "game criticism". The only reason fans give it a higher score is that they are willing to tolerate the bugs and glitches and CRASHES because they love the franchise. This game is not the franchise itself, and it is far, far, far more BROKEN than Fallout 3, which had only the occasional glitch. It is not my Xbox, my Xbox is fine. I do blame Microsoft for one thing, though: not revoking Bethesda's and Obsidian's license to publish on the Xbox.… Expand

OPEN THREAD: Which NOVA Elected Officials Will Wind Up With Extended Stays With The McDonnells At Club Fed?
News that the FBI is zeroing in on political corruption in Northern Virginia and with lists of targets for them to investigate now starting to pop up, we thought now was a good time for an Open Thread to find out which elected officials you think may wind up with an extended stay with indicted former first couple of Virginia Bob and Maureen McDonnell at Club Fed. Bloviate below…
White Collar Crime…Doing Time Has Never Been So Good!
6 Responses to "OPEN THREAD: Which NOVA Elected Officials Will Wind Up With Extended Stays With The McDonnells At Club Fed?"
It's amazing Jim Moran has not already gone up the river.
At least half of the mayors and town council members of each town in PWC and Loudoun
I predict the McDonnell's will not spend a day in jail. They will continue to wrack up huge legal bills and suffer the PR nightmare. Eventually they will plead guilty to some fine based charge based on the alleged loan fraud, or the matter will be dropped entirely after dismissal motions.
As for local officials, Its my understanding the reach is both elected officials and career government officials. this may provide sustained long term blog fodder. Grab the popcorn.
If there are any state charges involved, you can count on McAuliffe issuing a pardon – after all, he owes his office to McDonnell.
