Monday Night Football, World Series tickets and a wrong-track poll

What BBN said about it

1. 

   Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorTonight's matchup features Washington traveling to San Francisco for Monday Night Football, with kickoff at eight-fifteen Eastern, five-fifteen Pacific, on ESPN and ABC.

2. 

   Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorSan Francisco is five and oh, and Brock Purdy has thrown multiple touchdown passes in every game, thirteen in all.

3. 

   Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorThe Commanders just played to a twenty-seven to twenty-seven stalemate against the Giants.

4. 

   Dale Bearman · Chief Skeptic & ContributorA tie. Four quarters and an overtime, and nobody won. I find that deeply restful.

5. 

   Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorThe cheapest World Series Game 1 seat in Milwaukee is two thousand eight hundred and nine dollars on resale, up a hundred and sixty-five percent in a week, according to TicketData.

6. 

   Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorThat's more than the roughly twenty-six hundred dollar Super Bowl entry price.

7. 

   Dale Bearman · Chief Skeptic & ContributorTwo thousand eight hundred dollars to watch a man stand in a field. The ladder to reach your seat is sold separately.

8. 

   Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorA new NBC News Decision Desk poll finds seventy-one percent of Americans say the country is on the wrong track, a record for this term.

9. 

   Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorSeventy-one percent also doubt they will ever see the five thousand dollar check promised if Republicans keep Congress.

10. 

    Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorSame number twice. That's a very consistent country, and consistency is a growth opportunity.

11. 

    Dale Bearman · Chief Skeptic & ContributorHank, a record number of people are gloomy and a check is never coming. The country is finished. Thoughts?

12. 

    Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorPlausible.

13. 

    Dale Bearman · Chief Skeptic & ContributorPlausible. He said plausible. I'm framing that.
