Wires on Green, switches on Red filled riders with a sense of dread

Earlier today, the MBTA reported delays on the D Line, complete with the dreaded trolleys  standing by at stations, because of overhead power lines at Newton Center suddenly needing emergency repairs. On the Red line, riders had to get on buses to get between Braintree and Quincy Adams due to a switch problem at Braintree that also forced the dreaded standing by at stations, until the T realized, no, was time to roll those buses. The T reports both lines are back to normal.

Are the Chiefs signaling with all of their free agency signings that the D-Line will be a priority in the draft? Jerry Tillery and Charles Omenihu are back, but the line is still a place that needs some support - with a deep pool of talent - is that where the Chiefs are going? #Chiefs #signings #freeagency #DLine #JerryTillery #CharlesOmenihu

The #Niners lost 10-35 to the #Bills tonight & IMO they are TOAST!! 🫣

With this loss they fall to 5-7 with 5 games left to play, 2 games behind the #Seahawks at 7-5, with 5 games left in the season but their season is done.

It's over!!!! ☹️

Even if they could make the playoffs, they won't go far, so treat the rest of the season like the preseason.

Rest the regulars to protect them from (further or any) injuries. Play the 2nd & 3rd string players to give them experience.

And, in the meantime, prepare for a MAJOR rebuild of the entire #Defense -- the #DLine as well as the #backfield-- which truly SUCKS and also a retool of the #OLine which needs to improve in its protection of #Purdy & making holes for #McC & the other backs.

This involves a no holds bared analysis of what,'s wrong on both sides of the ball, & finding the right players to fill the holes via the draft & thru trades & the sooner the Niners' get on this the better.

Let's Go (Next year) Niners! 🎉

LA Metro Finishes 5 Years of Tunneling for D Line Subway Extension Project - Railway Track and Structures

LA Metro has finished five years of tunneling. The Tunnel Boring Machines (TBMs) added nine additional miles to the D Line.

Railway Track and Structures

None too shabby 14 minutes to MoA Station from 60th and Portland. I could see a less timorous operator shaving 2-3 minutes from that.
