Tackled in the stands at Qualcomm
don bauder, The only one that comes to mind is the LA Lazers. They played back in the old MISL. I am pretty sure we saw them play the SD Sockers a time or two. They were owned by Dr. Jerry Buss, back at the time he also owned The Forum, the Lakers, The Kings and an indoor pro tennis team whose name escapes me at the moment.— October 23, 2017 10:28 a.m.
Pirates of Penzance skewers Victorian Culture
I haven't seen Pirates in close to 40 years, not since Linda undertook the role of Mabel.— October 22, 2017 7:53 a.m.
Tackled in the stands at Qualcomm
Actually, as I recall, that trademark was filed only in the clothing category and has since been abandoned. So I think you're good, Ponzi.— October 22, 2017 7:42 a.m.
Golden Rule crashes Fleet Week, peacefully
The M16 entered U.S. military service in 1964 and was first deployed in Vietnam the next year.— October 17, 2017 8:35 p.m.
Golden Rule crashes Fleet Week, peacefully
Actually, the AR15 came before the M16. The AR15 came from the Armalite Division of the Fairchild Aircraft Corporation. The M16 entered U.S. military service. Both weapons are a scaled-down redesign of another Armalite rifle, the AR-10, designed during the mid-1950s to fire the full-power 7.62 NATO cartridge.— October 17, 2017 3:26 p.m.
Bernie Sanders pays National City campaign bill
As of this past September, the Sanders campaign close to 2 dozen cities more than $450k. Unless payment has been made recently, they still owe Tucson more than $44k. Seems as if National City is not alone in getting stiffed by Mr stamina and personal integrity. BTW, as I recall, in September his campaign fund still had in excess of $3 million available— October 9, 2017 4:12 p.m.
Rumor: NFL wants Chargers to return to San Diego
don bauder yes, tv revenue is divided equally. But you know as well as I do the basis of that revenue. It is in large part based on the advertising dollars the networks can charge for spots during the games. So having a market ranked 28th in the mix draws down the average. A little simplified, but I am sure you now exactly how it works.— October 9, 2017 9:37 a.m.
Rumor: NFL wants Chargers to return to San Diego
Adam Welsch, your statement about college football teams have twice the amount of attendance than any NFL game so far in LA is fundamentally incorrect. First of all, there is no stadium around here that I know of that holds 120k+, so it is a physical impossibility. Next, UCLA plays at the Rose Bowl, so technically not LA. Even with that being said, they are only averaging just under 59k in a facility with a capacity of 92k. USC is fairing slightly better, averaging just under 75k in the Coliseum, which can hold currently accommodate almost 94k, though after the next round of renovations, that capacity will be reduced to 77,500. Thru 3 games, the Rams are averaging just over 59k, slightly MORE than UCLA, but yes, about 15k less than USC. However, that being said, the Rams could never out draw USC, for one simple reason. This season, the Rams have limited ticket sales to about 65k, while keeping the option to sell more tickets for certain games should the demand be there. I understand the point you were trying to make, though an inaccurate one. Its just that using hyperbole instead of fact weakens your point.— October 9, 2017 9:29 a.m.
Rumor: NFL wants Chargers to return to San Diego
don bauder, SD is the 17th market in terms of population. But in terms of television markets, it is a mere 28th. And, as we all know, television dollars are what is really important.— October 4, 2017 11:32 p.m.
County sees golf carts as viable future transportation
According to California Vehicle Code 21716, golf carts are not allowed to operate on any street where the speed limit exceeds 25 mph. Also, I believe that all of the cities also have designated routes and paths that golf carts are required to use. I know for certain that RM, PD, LQ, and PS do. BTW the 53rd Annual Palm Desert Golf Cart Parade is on October 29. You also might look into the Coachella Valley Link.— September 29, 2017 3:57 a.m.
