Politics And Current Events

I can see the issue. But let's just say that the people who support Trump now wouldn't be at the top of the list of those who end up against the wall. I should think the ones who would be at the top of that list would want all available means to avoid ending up there. Here you see a respected PA at...

Where the debate begins in his "worst in history" is quite simply his attempts to pressure Congress and state governments into installing him as a dictator, throwing out the democratic process.

There's a spectrum between alt-right neo-nazi lunatic and a centrist republican. Trump certainly isn't an extreme on either of those as far as his admin/politics go, but he's still GOP. A lot of people view the GOP's positions and policies as counter productive. So when you combine a vision of coun...

Yeah, that 30% that is devout to Trump isn't latching on to anybody else. It'll be interesting to see what comes after. I mean the Dems have no leadership structure moving forward, but at least they aren't looking for a new golden idol to worship.

KenPom likes them a lot more than the RPI does it seems, so maybe I'll give them a pass.

Or maybe UVA has a really low floor as evidenced by scoring a combined 88 points over their last two games and their other horrible losses to Notre Dame(#223) and NC State (#90).

Good on you, CB. :thumb: Agreed. Rec sports aren’t even fun anymore due to the team stacking. It happens everywhere. We did baseball for a bit and the coaches would have a “draft” before the season. One team always ended up with the kids that were more experienced and played together for years and ...

So we're going to make these shoes, you see, and we'll keep them for ourselves but claim they sold out to create the illusion of excessive demand. Then, we can auction them off at outrageous prices and because people will think there's actually a collectors market for it they'll pay it. It'll be gre...

I owe a lot to early intervention.

Also, I have been sucked into playing Fortnite with my 10 year old. There are certainly worse things he could have asked me to do.

He gets the 60" TV and the Series X, I hook up the Switch up to a 24" gaming monitor on a TV tray on other side of the couch.

Another night of winter soccer, another 10-1 loss, accompanied by a crying 11 year old on the ride home. I’m just disgusted with this season, and would prefer just not showing up to anymore games. But that’s not us, so we’ll continue to suffer. There’s a team in our basketball league like this. I f...

No disagreement with that, Creed's performance has been overall excellent. Just noting there's a path that would allow it, but I can't see either party pursuing it.

Creed played guard the last week of the season despite never playing it before. And he needs to stop rolling snaps.

But Jason's not going anywhere. He's anchored to Philly and the Jersey Shore. My Philly connections say he's very content as just another Dad in the neighborhood.
