Thatguy

hmmmmm

Of course they knew him. Why else would he be there? Again, like I said, they are painting the gentlest picture of the altercation from the Memorial perspective. Its clear dude came over to speak to somebody he knew. This goes on at every track meet I've ever been to since the dawn of time. Athletes are roaming around chatting with people they know and throwing shots at the girls from other schools. Anyone acting like its some egregious violation to roll up to another teams tent is completely out of pocket. He will probably still get sentenced but I always knew it was going to be athlete sees somebody he knew. Goes over to talk. Overly aggressive athlete from tent tries to physically remove him. Dumb ass stabs him.

Track kids belong to track clubs. Your track club is comprised of athletes all over the surrounding areas. By the time you are 17 you know most of the kids from the other schools if you are a serious track athlete. My daughter started out running track for Beast Mode track club. She stopped when she realized vball was her future. But the kids in her club were from everywhere. There is no doubt in my mind that Anthony was there talking to a kid that he knew. No kid is going to sit under some random tent and then be brazen about not leaving unless they know someone there.

Whole thing is dumb. Track kids often go to the tents of other kids that they know and chat. The whole "nobody knew who he was is false". There is clearly some history here. We are also getting the gentlest version of witness accounts as they were all from kids who were schoolmates of the deceased. Bottom line. Some kids started physically trying to remove a kid from their tent and a kid got stabbed. Stupid all around. Kid in your tent you dont want to be there go tell tje coach or an officer. Dont try and intimidate or remove them by force.

Yeah. It's weird seeing only democrat adds on tv. There are Trumpers here but they keep their mouth shut.

Back in 2024 she told me she didn't want to play at any school in the south. June 15th after their sophomore year is the first day schools can offer kids officially. That day my kid got a call from a Texas school and she completely blew the interview. The wife and I were pissed sitting there listening to her as it was a for sure offer that she pissed away. Well it ended up working out because a month and a half later she would be offered by a school in the Northeast. Looking back our(at the time) 16 year old daughter saw what was coming more clearly than we did. I am proud of her for taking a stand and believing in herself. My daughter said she didn't even want to finish her senior year in Texas so we got a place close to where she will be going to school and let her do her senior year up here. My wife was up here while I was still in Texas closing up shop. I promised myself I would never work for anyone again but find myself heading up a start up, which is why I haven't been on here as much lately(super busy). I am not a huge fan of cold weather. It sucks. But knowing that at least Texas isn't benefiting from any of my family's talents puts my mind at ease. I hope millions follow. People need to be brave and stand up to this bullshit. Crash their fucking economy. That's how you get the country back.

Uh, yeah. Fuck the south. We practice what we preach at my house too. We vacated the south and my daughter refused and scholly offers.

black people are going start not allowing their kids to go to southern schools.

That's because people have been taught they conquered Americas because of intellectual superiority and not because they brought diseases that killed off the majority of the indigenous.

Funny, the United States greatest leap forward was done on the backs of social programs but once brown people became eligible guys like Earl have been trying to shut down the same programs that allowed their families to climb up a couple rungs on the socioeconomic ladder. Libertarians had their chance in the late 1900's, and we all saw what happens when Capitalism has no brakes or guardrails. Idiots like Earl didn't study American History and want to stick their fork in the light socket once again. Hey Earl, people will only be as civilized as they are forced to be. That's why governments are necessary. They would can feces and sell it to your family for food if the FDA wasn't here to stop them. Auto safety. Work Safety. Wages. Policing. You name it. All necessary government entities. Those things are the difference between 1st and 3rd world countries. You would know that if you left our borders, or did any reading at all.

Keep in mind that this motherfucker is only 40 years old. How he will look at 60-

I don't know how they will adjust, but I do know they will be able to defend themselves.

Yep. OU and Aggy literally run themselves out of run fits. We primarily run OZ and Split Zone, with some counter mixed in for a changeup. We are a terrible matchup for a team that likes to play games with their D-line. We will let you take whatever gap you want and then crease you on the back end. With slow ass Wisner. Other teams run a lot of IZ which doesn't punish as much for failed gap integrity.

Anyway you slice it a ballroom on WH grounds is a logistical nightmare. Either you don't have parking and the security needed to ferry dignitaries to and fro while be awful, or you have below ground parking which would compromise the integrity of the building's secure underground facilities. We all know they aren't just going to be building a ballroom anyway.

Been busy as of late and thus haven't been on here a lot. While other countries are much more familiar with us than we are them, they still aren't totally familiar with the breakdown of the political landscape here. I've found myself explaining it to many people from abroad. I am different than you two. I want nothing positive to happen during this guy's tenure. I want FIFA to pull out as well as The Olympics. I want the ballroom destroyed, and anything this dude renamed to be reversed the second he leaves office. I want us to do everything we can to erase his existence. Then we can resume our relationship with the rest of the world.

Agreed. I am in the Bay Area as we speak for my sister in law's wedding. Of course they are playing at the same time as the ceremony. If they win though..

My wife does this loop. Trader Joe's, Costco, and Wegmans. She comes home angry every trip. Even then she can't find exactly what she wants. We used to get all our spices at Phoenicia. She cant find anything even online.

Meijer is the struggle bus my guy. Its big though. If you like that.

Couldn't help yourself could you? If you say you hate Kobe Bryant does that make you anti-black?

Yeah @UpperWestside and @mchookem , HEB is pretty bomb. Only grocery store I know of where the store brand products are consistently better than the name brand ones. Right now we still have both houses, but once we sell the Texas house we are for sure going to miss it.

HEB is pretty great. I am back and forth so my wife is having me bring cookies and fresh made tortillas.

@royiv to piggyback on this- My daughter committed on July 27th prior to her junior year. She communicated early that she would not be going to school in a red state. I said you are playing for whoever is paying, but she bet on herself and won. I dragged my wife to Texas from the West Coast. She has been solid on her desire to leave asap upon our daughter graduating since before we got there. I had the two most important people in my life both unhappy where they were. My wife was born in Berkeley, grew up in Tahoe, and ran track for The University of Nevada. She has one cousin in NYC. Otherwise she has no family east of Arizona. I am not originally from Texas either. My mom brought us to Texas after getting a nursing job at Texas Children's. So there was no reason to stay. Texas has an abusive stance towards women. I could change that for my two ladies TOMORROW, so I did. My wife's only regret is not being able to pick up an HEB and take it with us.

How did it work out for me? My kid got a quarter million dollar scholarship. We didn't have to move 2000 miles away. We simply moved to where she is going to school and let her finish up at a high school in the area. Her high school in Texas was number 4 in the state in volleyball. Without that level of competition she doesn't make it here. So I would say it worked out fine. I am happy that she struggled at the high school level. Even though she is Asian, Black, and White, in the eyes of white people in this country she is simply a black girl. She got to see the underbelly of America at an early age. What America truly is. All that hate and bigotry is exactly what she will have to navigate as a professional Black Woman. People questioning her intelligence. People questioning her gender. Questioning her beliefs, both religious and political. Now she knows first hand what that feels like, and knows what to expect when she walks into an office somewhere.

There two choices. Live in the city and send your kid to private school or live in the burbs where public schools are decent. I wanted my daughter to go to school with regular kids. Plus she is a high level athlete so private schools don't really offer her the level of play to help her grow.
