May be relevant to 2020
It might be. But it shouldn't

Factually the New Black Panther Party says hello.
Hey, if you're suggesting that the alt-right receive the same treatment that the Black Panthers did, you'll hear no argument from me. Bit surprised that you have taken that position, tbh.

I'm at the point that I just find all of this hilarious. Anger went away years ago

Ugh, the burden runs the other way bro. I don't find Sondland's "guess" (as Sondland himself put it) to be all that powerful of evidence of Trump's intent.
Dude, please come be on one of my juries. In my almost decade of criminal defense, I have never once encountered anyone in a jury pool who thinks that specific intent must be proven by the accused articulating that intent. It's also not what the law, in any jurisdiction, says.
"Yes, my client broke into the house. Yes he was wearing gloves and a mask. Yes he had a large black bag and burglary tools. But ladies and gentlemen, as you know, the people must show that my client had the specific intent to commit a crime after entering and you have heard no evidence that my client ever told anyone he was breaking into this house with any specific intent to do anything."

The odds of dying in WWII were lower than in WW1.
Not sure what people were complaining about in Bastogne.

Yeah but those traits within Kenny came from his childhood, not his time at Texas.
Are there a lot of soft high school players that come into college and have those traits instilled?

That piece from the Baylor professor hits close to home.
I finally had it out with my father on Sunday.
We were on the phone and he was bemoaning the result of the Bama/LSU game. I made a joke that it was Trump’s fault - we hadn’t lost a home game in four years and he shows up and boom.
He lost his shit - practically screaming about me disrespecting “the best president of his lifetime” and people who criticize him should be punished.
I pointed out that he was unhinged over a joke and he was acting like a triggered snowflake.
That elicited a good ten seconds of sputtering denial.
I told him to calm down and quit acting like an emotional toddler over a joke and he said, and I quote, “I hate liberals and we need to ‘cleanse’ them from our country!”
And I lost it. I asked him “So, you hate me and your granddaughter and your son (he’s a liberal too)? You think we should be punished and ‘cleansed’ from the population?”
He tried to backtrack and say, “I didn’t say that! I just hate your politics!”
I told him to stop lying.
I said the only reason he even came to that game was to assuage his bartered ego after getting booed at the World Series and the UFC match.
“Ah, those people aren’t real Americans! They’re just yankee New York liberals!”
At that, I literally hollered “TRUMP IS A YANKEE NEW YORKER! WHAT ARE YOU EVEN TALKING ABOUT???”
I told him ever since his retirement he’s turned into someone I don’t recognize and he’s been brainwashed by watching Fox News nonstop and radicalized by Facebook.
Then I got petty and said “You’ve become like a cult member. You’re letting your emotional attachment to a con-artist criminal destroy your relationship with your family.”
He, a 69 year old man who has always been a kind and loving person, proceeded to tell me he won’t speak to me if I don’t “change my ways” and, like a petulant child, hung up on me.
I’ve ignored and tiptoed around his behavior for far too long.
After a few minutes I called my mom and she said he said he refuses to speak to me until “I apologize for disrespecting our president.”
My mom says she just ignores him when he gets like that and I told her that’s part of the problem. She said she doesn’t want to put up with the “abuse” if she engages.
I joked my sister will be happy because my brother and I will get cut from the will. (My sister isn’t a Trumpkin, she’s just totally apolitical).
My mom replied “I control the will”.
Part of me is sad because I’ve always been Daddy’s Girl and we’ve always had a great relationship. He was never like this. He’s become a different person over the last three years.
The other part of me is relieved for having finally told him how horrible he is for letting his slavish devotion to an evil man take priority over his flesh and blood.
I’m seriously concerned about what he’ll do if Trump loses. I told my mom to take his guns away - half joking, half serious.
TL;DR - my dad went off the deep end after I made a joke about Trump cursing Alabama football and he’s disowned me.Apologies. I had no idea you were the son of a meth-intrigued Iranian immigrant.

I'm fine with that. Cheating in professional sports does not move the needle at all for me. Never has. Never will.
Yeah, we get it. You're above sports and consider it foolish for grown men to care about cheating or some shit like that.

Looking forward to seeing how many different ways the organization is going to fuck this up.

I haven't really read any constitutional analysis on this case, but what's the constitutional argument for preserving DACA?

Can people just write articles? At minimum just drop a link in twitter to a PDF. Jesus.

If you’re right, it will take several decades to get that far left in Texas.
I fully expect a New York 1990’s type reaction to the absurdity of this type of crap. Probably take 20 years. Typhus filled homeless camp and decriminalized theft won’t be tolerated indefinitely.
LOL. What a fucking self-own.

I don't even care to want to know what that even means, but did you really screenshot a Tweet? lol
He had too. Posting the actual tweet would show what the tweet was in response to. That would reveal Zavala to be a liar and fraud. Again.

i've been in a federal jury pool. from the get go, we were assigned a jury #. that was our name the entire time. if they've got the jury names, they are playing dirty pool.
long story short, i didn't get picked for the federal jury. mostly because i've testified in a murder trial.
fwiw, in the state court where I practice, the prospective jurors are all assigned numbers and their names are never mentioned in open court. The attorneys DO have a list with all names. The jurors are not aware of this.

Welp, better double down on GOP strategy. Seems to be doing wonders. Losing the governor in fucking Kentucky lol

Shelters are often dens of drugs, violence, trauma, and theft.
Many homeless will tell you they would prefer to sleep on the street.

So Trump's base appears to be incels, aggy, Nazis, and Johnny Sack.
Helluva group

I'm a bit worried about JV in the future. I guess stats don't lie, but watching him this year I couldn't help but think he really doesn't have ace stuff. Seems like he makes a ton of mistakes every game and only occasionally gets punished.

If it exceeds the amount of the scholarship, sure, why not.
man, that's a really weird position.

And that's fair, if limited to those who "choose" to cash in. Otherwise don't penalize the majority who don't have the option to cash in.
Why is that fair? To ask the question posed above, I assume you would agree that every student on scholarship who earns money on the side should have their scholarship amount taxed? Not just athletes.

As for T9, I get that money from 3rd party endorser won't apply...now. BUT, do we not envision that being challenged in court?
Or say a school can't directly pay it's players, but players can receive payments for endorsements and their likeness...... that's not "fair" to the track and field or swimmers who don't have video games to benefit from. Or the female BBall or softball players who can't even fill a stadium much less get endorsements or games made.
I think this system will result in a widening of the gap between the haves and have-nots. This resulting lack of parity will cause 2nd tier programs to fold up shop. The result will be disastrous to women's athletics and non-revenue sports.
Why will they fold up shop? Why will football players making money on the side cause them to fold up shop? How come the football coach making 100 times what the swimming coach makes does not make them fold up shop?
I need an explanation because I've seen this talking point repeatedly brought up without any analysis.

Kinda undercuts his point?
Its like saying everyone should stop bitching about the Boeing planes nosediving into the ground because airline deaths are way down from their high of 2800+ in 2001.
