I guess I have to qualify that. Just like last time, they will release a totally non-detailed document that expresses where they wish improvements to occur. The MEC administrators will call that document the opener. The real opener that gets exchanged with management on day one of the Section 6 negotiations process will NEVER get released to this pilot group. Unless management does it that is.

You talking about tonight's flight, or long term?

I've been getting emails from Anil saying we are going to discontinue service to BOM come next March.

I know they've been having to fly a much longer route due to ISIS in Iraq, which I'm sure has hurt yields on that route.

I didn't see what he did today (how bad was he?), but I did watch him give a win to Tampa Bay Bucks last week. To me, he looked stoned. He was running into oncoming blitzing linebackers. Not once, not twice, but at least 3 times! Instead of throwing the ball out of bounds, he would just keep running backwards, then curl up in the fetal position....20 yard loss.

I was telling my wife about his knee issues, then after the game the news was talking about the league doing drug raids on some teams.

I figure he's hooked on oxycodone and was high as a kite the whole game, which would explain a lot of his weird behavior the whole game (last week).

Same thing today. I was an unbiased viewer but he looks afraid. The Skins, as bad as they are, could have won that game. Plus, he can't throw downfield. 8 yards to his TE seems to be his comfort zone.

I have to wonder how many of these guys (NFL) really are hooked on pain killers. I know there's a huge problem with addiction to oxycodone in the general public.

Who needs pain killers more than NFL players?

Why wouldn't they also be addicted?

It's because of that racist name of theirs.

Are we putting another flight from a different airport or are we just quitting the market?
