Looking to see if there could be a conversation on the podcast about injuries. More specifically injury stats. Is there any connection out there with the type of support a team has on there medical staff and win record (faster recovery for players from injury)?

In light of Texas’s new gerrymander plan, a friend reminded me of some maps I made a while back to extremely gerrymander some blue states.
Three states can net 17 Dem seats with fairly comfortable margins
Here’s CA where the most conservative district is D+14
52 Dem seats, 0 GOP(net +9 Dem seats)

The 82nd Airborne's *entire* 3rd Brigade Combat Team or a couple of companies or a battalion? Coupla comments if it's the former:
1. That's a war-sized element, not a ho-hum temporary border duty thing
2. It's incredibly reckless to deploy the 82nd Airborne like this for a fake emergency

The 82nd Airborne's 3rd Brigade Combat Team is preparing to deploy to the southern border, three defense officials tell me. Part of the 10th Mountain may serve as a headquarters element.
