  1. I notice him catching himself a lot, which is good. My guess is that's how he's been training more recently.
  2. And now abandons the Ukraine question. Sit down dumbass.
  3. I agree, meaning it doesn't matter who the top of the ticket is, too many people don't give a shit about actual issues.
  4. Kamala needs to be a major part of the campaign trail and the media needs to cover it with more vigor.
  5. Regardless of how mush mouthed it is at times, he's talking about real issues, very complex issues, and how its being addressed. That's the difference that should matter.
  6. If he dies or loses it completely, Kamala becomes president. That should be the talking point. Putting her at the top of the ticket is the end. The undecideds aren't voting for her and a bunch of olds who would vote for even a senile Biden will not vote for her because . . . well, you know.
  7. Love the show, but man, sports are supposed to be fun. Having to brawl before every other period seems miserable. The over the top machismo is a little cringy sometimes.
  8. Her motivation is irrelevant, she has capitulated and kissed the ring, period. If anything, her reason makes it worse. Telling people to support a dangerous con man so she can be next in line.
  9. https://www.cnn.com/2024/07/09/politics/nikki-haley-delegates-presidential-convention/index.html “We need a president who will hold our enemies to account, secure our border, cut our debt, and get our economy back on track. I encourage my delegates to support Donald Trump next week in Milwaukee.”
  10. Uber should offer a modest NIL contract to all college athletes with a few bucks and a free NIL code to use anytime. They can ask a few of the athletes to do commercials for them as part of a public safety campaign.
  11. I don't know, it's confounding. Everybody seems to hate it, but half of Americans start screaming the dreaded S word (cloak room version) anytime the concept of reform is brought up in any meaningful context. It's going to require a political solution, ergo, cloak room will always be a problem.
  12. I'm continually amazed at how fast American society has changed in the past and how stagnant it is presently. Even with an enormous change through technology, we are still hung up on some really stupid shit. I'm posting because two issues come to mind. First, I'm pouring through documents and online forms to determine if I have insurance coverage for my daughter who is probably going to need braces later this year. I seriously cannot figure it the fuck out, and I'm a fucking lawyer. I'm also sitting on an $800 post-insurance invoice from a rural hospital for putting some skin glue on my son's head from when he fell off a swingset out in the country. It was late evening and the local hospital is listed as also the local urgent care. They submitted it as an emergency room visit. I've had a dozen phone calls and nobody will agree with me that the bill is either wrong or complete bullshit. I'm about to just fucking pay it because I'm fucking exhausted. Second, tipping culture. I liked a local food review group on facebook and half the fucking posts are fights over tipping. I've heard of several studies that show that it is a completely unjust and absurd system. It's biased towards pretty blonde girls and against most black people regardless of attractiveness. It's super arbitrary, why is a server entitled to more because the dish they bring out costs $40 instead of $25? And nobody can agree on what "good service" really is, not to mention all the short handed staffs that get punished because their employers are too cheap to offer a wage attractive enough to get more people to join them. Yet we just fucking stick to it instead of doing what the rest of the goddamned world does and pay servers a decent wage that is included in the price. If the service truly sucks, complain, and the server gets better or gets fired like any other job. Just blows my mind, especially the first. Everybody hates their health insurance companies, but cloak roomers just go ballistic if any proposal is made to change the system. I just don't get it.
  13. At the OKC airport. Also on about 100 billboards all over the state. Fucking tools.
  14. If true, FSU and Clemson should have thrown a fit the second they announced the deal that locked them in through 2036.
  15. I don’t know about that, Deion was not liked by a lot of fans for being too “flashy.”
  16. A random post without a link, seems legit.
  17. Wouldn't ACC member schools have agreed to the terms of the conference contract with ESPN? They did so without having an unredacted copy of the actual agreement? That doesn't make any sense. I'm pretty sure the Big 12's media media contract is available online. Or maybe it's just the Grant of Rights Agreement, but still, I assume the schools have a copy of the media contract they agreed to and are bound by.
  18. I'm not the one who retitled this thread the "Doom" thread because of a bad debate. I'm also not an elected democrat going on social media undermining my party's incumbent candidate. The chicken littles are the babies. Also, am I wrong? Has trump lost any support in the polls with this new wave of Project 2025 information?
  19. So trump's in trouble, right? His polling numbers are gonna tank? Nah, he said he doesn't know anything about it. Hunky Dory.
  20. Then people need to stop saying to push back against the right and to play in the mud with them. I've said over and over again that that's the difference, the people who vote D aren't the type of people who fall for that shit like the Rs. I get shouted down whenever I bring that up with "Dems are just pussies." It can't be both.
  21. Credibility means nothing anymore, zero, especially to people who are supposedly still on the fence in this election. Also, there is no democrat, not a single one, who can "annihilate" trump. Half this country is set that fascism and Project 2025 is a great idea. Or are paying so little attention they don't know the fucking difference and will default to whatever lies and misinformation Putin puts on social media in October.
  22. See? Is that so hard? Say it over and over again. That's how the other side plays the game.
