Qualcomm executives sued
Ray Kroc gave Americans jobs. He was from a generation of good business people. A role model and good citizen of the community and the nation. The Jacobs are almost opposite. They transfer technology from Americans to foreigners, bring over labor that will do the jobs cheaper (accelerating the demise of our middle class) among other nefarious activity. I don't consider the Jacobs to be good citizens, they are bad dogs. And Jacob can keep his big nose out of Balboa Park and other civic matters. He has not earned that privilege because he is an American traitor. Qualcomm is San Diego's biggest abuser of the H-1B visa fiasco.— February 6, 2016 7:36 a.m.
Tough times for beer in El Cajon
Would you care to elaborate on the WHY there is no beer in El Cajon? Could it be the radically changing demographics and increasing poverty.— February 5, 2016 8:08 a.m.
You call yourself a football fan?
There are many stories about how demographics and millennials will doom the NFL. (Okay, maybe not doom it, but knock it far off its perch). But estimates are that it will take over 20 years. The demographic changes are the rising hispanic populations and their interest in soccer. Also, millennials were raised playing soccer. The controversy over concussions and brain damage is also weighing in on millennials minds. They are a coddled generation and their parents are concerned about them getting injured. Millennials (young people 9-30 years old) were reared by their parents in a highly sheltered and protected manner. The generation’s arrival was signaled by “baby on board” bumper stickers and AMBER Alerts, major child protection legislation and “helicopter parents.” A number of current and former NFL players – among them quarterbacks Terry Bradshaw, Kurt Warner, Drew Brees, and Troy Aikman and linebacker Bart Scott, famed for his hard-hitting style – say that, due to its dangers, they would bar their sons from playing the game in which they earned fame and fortune.— February 4, 2016 10:48 a.m.
You call yourself a football fan?
When I lived in Seattle, before the Kingdome was imploded and before Paul Allen bought the Seahawks, more fans attended the Huskies games. It would sell out its 70,000 seats.— February 3, 2016 3:45 p.m.
You call yourself a football fan?
Don, do you know is the millennials (the millennial generation)enjoy football? In my mind, I see the NFL trying to cement football as "the" large, family, reason to party... but I think they are in a desperate rush to fill markets and get the stadiums built. I have a feeling that sports is getting too segmented and the media channel too varied. There are extreme sports, the rise in popularity of various fighting formats, NASCAR rising, soccer, rugby, cricket, lacross and then all the air and water sports. Millennials have turned video games into a competitive sport. There are just too many *more fun* things to do than watch football. Bottom line is that if millennials do not get engaged in football, it's doomed.— February 3, 2016 3:44 p.m.

But the Buds get even and the "craft brewers" get greedy. So the Buds will eventually own the craft beers.— February 3, 2016 3:38 p.m.
Oh, Mother's, what have you done?
Sounds like she is a front for a law firm that may be planning to file suits against food companies that use trans fats. Can she read labels? As consumers, it's cavet emptor. If it was disclosed on the label in ingredients, what is her case?— January 31, 2016 11:18 a.m.
Oh, Mother's, what have you done?
"There is a scientific consensus that trans fat is a major cause for ambulance chasing lawyers who represent witless clients."— January 31, 2016 7:28 a.m.
Road-trip Washington State's national parks
Washington is beautiful, but the drivers will drive you crazy. Something about the Northwest makes people drive slow and stupid no matter how much coffee they consume.— January 29, 2016 7:50 p.m.
Spanos commits!
I think he doesn't have a ready-and-willing practice facility in the LA area and doesn't want to pay for one. He gets one cheap here. Plus another year of headlines about the fickle Chargers. Good businessmen make sound, thoughtful and timely decisions. Spanos and the NFL are playing games. I think the people are getting tired of it. It seems like they want to grind the public into just saying "enough already" give the bastard his stadium.— January 29, 2016 6:28 p.m.
