Plead guilty or else we drop all charges
don bauder. In order to join Mensa, a person merely needs to have attained a "score within the upper two percent of the general population on an intelligence test that has been approved by the International Supervisory Psychologist and that has been properly administered and supervised" . That's it. There is no requirement based on ones morality or or even good judgement. Since moronic can be used to describe lacking in good judgment, it seems to fit.— June 13, 2015 4:34 p.m.

Turning out the lights on Chargers Charities
Falls are the leading cause of nonfatal injury for all age groups less than 15. For children ages 0 to 9, the next two leading causes were being stuck by or against an object and animal bites or insect stings, for children 10 to 14 years of age, the next leading causes were being struck by or against an object and overexertion. For children 15 to 19 years of age, the three leading causes of nonfatal injuries were being struck by or against an object, falls, and motor vehicle occupant injuries. Football and cheerleading/gymnastics are NOT the first and second leading cause of injury to children.— June 13, 2015 6:50 a.m.
San Diego's convention center sails in choppy financial waters

San Diego's convention center sails in choppy financial waters
don bauder I find it highly unlikely that the NFL would allow the Chargers to move anywhere other than Los Angeles. More or less, they have put all of their eggs in the Los Angeles basket. If, for some as yet unforeseen reason, the move to Los Angeles is nixed, I doubt the league would react favorably to the Chargers when they come pleading to move someplace, anyplace, just don't make us stay in San Diego. And as you said above, and I said several weeks ago, San Diego will be in charge, holding them by their footballs, as it were. And that would be the time for the city to grow a pair of their own and right all the wrongs the Chargers have perpetrated on San Diego for the last 25+ yrs. Wait. What am I thinking. It's San Diego. History is destined to repeat itself. The city will bend over for the Chargers...again. Just my opinion. Opinions vary.— June 11, 2015 11:25 a.m.
Life insurance in reverse
don bauder Perhaps. But personally, I think it's more likely a comment that was made in hindsight by someone who had been taken to the cleaners with nary a clue that it was happening.— June 10, 2015 8:38 p.m.

Qualcomm's "bounteous" executive pay noted
The NFL is having a special meeting in August to "discuss the progress" of the L.A. NFL stadium proposals. My guess is that while they have said there will not be an actual vote, the decision will pretty much be a fait accompli one which teams will get the chance for a relocation vote. And if that turns out to be the case, Falconer will be a day late and a dollar short because I would ecpect the relocation vote to be held before the December 15 vote. Just my opinion. Opinions vary.— June 9, 2015 12:16 p.m.
