What is his financial incentive? Correct me if I’m wrong but his Foundation is supporting things, not a profit organization.

Anyway, too much time in this rabbit hole.

- Canada Cup


Bill Gates is developing a vaccine. The more vaccines that he can sell, the more money he will make. A higher risk of death will get more people to take the vaccine.

Bill Gates decides what projects IHME will support.

The world isn't all rainbows and lollipops. Just because something is labelled a foundation, doesn't mean they only do good and noble things.

Bill Gates likes to make money. Lots of it. It's actually foolish to think he's not trying to make a lot of money from a vaccine.

Signing Petro and re-signing Rielly when his contract is up is a scenario that I have purposefully avoided talking about. Cuz I don't want to live in a world without Rielly-Petro as the Leafs top pair.
- mjones242


Why do the Leafs even need a top pairing..

Sign Taylor Hall, offersheet Barzal.

Make Dermott-Holl the #1 Pairing

I’m shocked at how uninformed this take is-
1. Players in Canada can set up a Retirement Compensation Agreement (RCA) and limit their tax liability to a flat 20%. With sound tax advisors, a NHL player can actually pay the same or less tax in Canada than he will Florida or Vegas.


Edit: Pietrangelo to Leafs

poop, 700 cases in Ontario
- Canada Cup



Who's got the meme of the kitchen on fire and the person saying "this is fine"? That's the government right now.

700 is the most we had in Ontario.

bolded is not true.
BMGF or "Bill Gates" does not hold any IP, and therefor does not make any money on covid-19 vaccines.
and again -- drugs for chronic diseases is where the money is for pharma companies, not in vaccines.

Well a vaccine that would be sold to the whole world would no doubt make money Max.

The companies who sold the H1N1 vaccine made alot of money.

Bill Gates nor his foundation is 'developing a vaccine'.
they are basically giving away money to de-risk vaccine development.

Dermott-Pietrangelo
Muzzin-Holl
Sandin-Lehtonen




Or just keep Rielly and sign Pietrangelo.

pharma is seeing the covid epidemic as an interesting way to get R&D funds --- most of which will never be used for covid, but for other diseases.
the why and how it is possible for gov'ts to fund subpar or 'late' programmes is another story.

and by the way --- it baffles me that a lot of people think it is ok for industry to make a lot of profit on stupic consumer products (an iphone at 1200usd as an example) and life saving products (essential drugs, vaccines etc.) which have an incredible economic impact somehow should be given away at cost of goods???

I'm not saying he's developping a vaccine. I have no idea what Bill Gates does.

I'm just saying people are making money when they sell a vaccine.

Bill Gates pledged to donate most of his money during his lifetime to charitable causes, so there's an argument to be made that he's not in it for the money.

We can't judge his intentions because we don't know what they are.

How do you feel about the Man Mountain, 2020 and beyond? Having second thoughts about AP at 31 on a ginormous deal.

i have mixed feeling on this...hey the Jays were able to have some success against TB...but also lost more games than they won...which is pretty much how you expect games agaisnt TB to go

score more runs, lose series

@TaoofStieb
No team scored more runs against the Tampa Bay Rays this season than the Blue Jays (48).
Despite going 4-6 against the Rays, the Jays out scored them 48-44.

Maybe because humanity doesn't need an iPhone like they need essential drugs and vaccines. Is this seriously something that has to be (frank)ing explained to you?
