What do you think should be done about this situation....given that it is clear that this situation cannot be cleaned up in time for next year's games?

Pretend there is no problem

That is exactly what they are doing apparently.

Here is this week's survey. Give your opinions or answers:

My own answers:

1. A. Which team in the AFC do you think will "overachieve" compared to predictions for them for this year?

That would be the Cleveland Browns. The fucktards at ESPN think the Browns will go 4-12....they think that football is all only about one position (Jesus...they have the Jets going 8-8)

B. Which AFC team do you think will "underachieve"

The same source says that the Colts will be the best team in the AFC. at 13-3..not so fast my friend. They are impressed that they have picked up a bunch of "veterans" for their offense......what they got were a bunch of old, slow guys. They will probably compete in their division...but may get overtaken by the Texans. I see 9-7 more likely.

C. Which NFC team will "overachieve"

ESPN has like every NFC team going within one game of .500 except one: the Redskins. No, they are not my choice....but the Rams are. Predicted at 8-8 they could compete with the Seahawks for that division title.

D. Which NFC team will "underachieve"

Again, ESPN has the Cowboys as the best team in the NFC. Nyet. I see the Cowboys being the Cowboys....which means 8-8...and miss the playoffs.

2. A. These American League teams are currently in contention for the postseason. Which 5 of them would you prefer to see make it:

Blue Jays, Yankees, Royals, Astros, Rangers, Angels, Twins, Orioles, TB Rays?

All but the Rays that I have highlighted above would be in right now. I am hoping they can shove the Yankees off the shelf.

B. These NL teams are in contention. Which 5 of these do you want to see make it:

Cardinals, Mets, Dodgers, Pirates, Cubs, Giants, Nationals.

Right now, all but the Nationals would be in....but I hold little hope they can get a wild card away from the Cubs and Pirates. More likely they would need a big push to overtake the Mets in their division.

3. Here is a link to the AP preseason top 25 FBS football teams. Which NCAA FBS team do you think will "overachieve" this coming year?

Which one will "underachieve".

http://espn.go.com/college-football/rankings

I think Oklahoma who is at 19 in both polls will jump up to the Top 5...and maybe make the playoffs and be the overachiever.

That means either Baylor or TCU will step back, and one of them will "underachieve"

4. The water venues that are planned for use at the 2016 Olympics in Rio are seriously contaminated and pose a health risk to the athletes competing by all reports. Here is a link to a story:

http://espn.go.com/olympics/story/_/id/13343832/2016-rio-olympic-water-poses-serious-health-risks-test-finds

What do you think should be done about this situation....given that it is clear that this situation cannot be cleaned up in time for next year's games?

I think they need to move those venues....and get started now. They can stay in Brazil....but go somewhere where there is a lot less population and pollution, but they have to move them.

5. Which movie Villain do you think really got a raw deal.....i.e. a person who really wasn't as bad as he/she was cracked up or portrayed to be....but was just a "victim of circumstance"

OK, it is NOT Malificent as the recent movie starring Angelina Jolie tried to claim. That movie was bullshit. And it is not the Wicked Witch of the West....as the book and play Wicked tried to portray (they tried to make the Wizard out to be the bad guy). That too is bullshit. It is not the Terminator which some sequels tried to portray.

To me it is: Dean Vernon Wormer from Animal House.

I mean, as he said in the film: "I'm just trying to do my job"....and his job was to try to straighten up the ne'er do wells of Faber College.

And he was right: Fat, drunk and stupid is no way to go through life.

I mean, Niedermeyer and Marmalard were assholes....but Wormer just wanted the Deltas to get better grades and not bring cadavers to the alumni dinner or putt fizzies into the school swimming pool just before a meet.
