Now that I've gone political and potentially offended people here...:eek:

Will the Conservatives in the U.K. be successful in the special election?

YAY - They'll gain seats.
or
MEH - They'll stay in the majority, but their margin will be about the same.
or
NAY - They'll stay in the majority, but they will lose a decent amount of seats.
or
OMFG! - They lose the majority to (assuming) a Labour led coalition.

NAY - They'll stay in the majority, but they will lose a decent amount of seats.

My guess is that they'll win by a landslide, but perhaps not quite as large a one as some observers believe/hope there will be.

Exit poll sez: Buzz might well be right. :eek: :wideeyes: :inavoid:

Mexican - Any boyfriend/husband I have must love spicy food as much as me! :D

This one is based on an update to an earlier This or That:

Track & Field Time: The New York Time isn't giving up on Alberto Salazar and the Nike Oregon Project! In today's article, the allegations include: Dathan Ritzenhein's claim that Salazar pushed him take thyroid medication, that Salazar and Dr. Jeffrey Brown administered "L-carnitine infusion procedures" in, if true, exceeding amounts allowable by WADA/USADA, and that Dr. Brown 1altered medical records of athletes.

This is in addition to earlier reports that Salazar pushed his athletes to get therapeutic use exemptions (TUEs) purely to enhance performance, not as a medical necessity.

New York Times (May 19. 2017) - 'This Doesn’t Sound Legal’: Inside Nike’s Oregon Project

Is the Nike Oregon Project in trouble......NOW?

NO! - FAKE NEWS! Besides, athletes/coaches/staff should be innocent until proven/tested guilty.
or
No - But WADA/USADA's policy on TUEs are WAY too relaxed.
or
YES! - There's doping violations going on.

YES! There's doping violations going on.

New York Times (June 8, 2017): Doctor for Nike Oregon Project Runners Is Notified of Doping Allegations

For real - are Alberto Salazar & the Nike Oregon Project actually going down?

YES
or
NO
