    Well after 17 years and the great plunge in oil price the opposition finally won an election.
    It is good to see democracy prevail and prove all the ideologues wrong that Venezuela is a dictatorship.

    Of course I suspect that Maduro will still be considered a dictator by most of the US and international media.

    I am looking forward to the continuing developments in Venezuela and this could be a wakeup call to the socialists. I doubt that Venezuela will be going back to good old days of complete domination by the .01% as the 99.99% have gotten a taste of what life is like when they have better housing, health care and education and some influence.

    I expect an undemocratic attempt to depose Maduro before his term ends in 2019 backed by the US of course.

    Maduro is a steal and a great draft and stash.
    Morley does it again.

    Can he play power forward?

    17... That's a PRIME number. Was OP suggesting that the current roster will get to its full strength and make some major noise in the playoffs?

    Had a glitch, glynch? Perhaps this was what you intended to post:

    "I expect an undemocratic attempt by Les to depose Morey before his contract ends in 2069, backed by the USUAL people, of course."

    (I love it, glynch, ha ha ha! Freedom for the people! FREE BASKETBALL!!)
