  1. Put the Nobel Prize aside for a moment. Why does someone who notices that peace is accelerating in the mid-east get labeled a “Trump cultist”? How many Presidents have failed in that region and for how long? How many have removed soldiers from Iraq and Afghanistan — not placed them there? Are people supposed to condemn this things because of the Orange Man? The Arab-Israel agreements are the first in decades. Both Israel-Egypt and Israel-Jordan peace agreements were born out of hostile conflict. These are true “warm” peace agreements. That’s awful because Orange Man? I couldn’t care less about the Nobel Prize. And the reverse question is: why is everything accomplished by this administration worthy of scorn and ridicule, even if it is a good thing? Looks to me like there is a “Hate Everything Trump Does Cult”. Here’s a third very important question: When Biden wins, do you think he should put troops back in Afghanistan and put troops back in Iraq and work to unravel the UAE/Bahrain/Israel peace agreements; as well as the Serbia/Kosovo agreement?
  2. Yep. And it feels like the organization is happy to lay on the dead rock bottom like they're spending a breezy summer day in a hammock.
  3. What a nightmare. Best of luck to you and all your neighbors!
  4. I don't. Not sure which irony you're referring to.
  5. So this is the straw that broke your particular camel's back?
  6. I think he’s eating peppermint patties.
  7. I switched over to ABC and they were interviewing JJ Watt!
  8. Football. Finally.
  9. Let’s go Football !!!!!!!
  10. Why can’t you find your own post? it is easy to do, just go to your own profile and search your own content. From what I recall, the bolded part above is your weak explanation of douchery the day after the original post that Hedge cited.
  11. Thats a lot of wiping. I guess that is what one should expect from a schittt show.
  12. Especially when there are no tickets to sell. I’m close to hooking up a sling box to my brother in law’s tv in WNY. I think that might work pretty well.
  13. You mean like a Dolphins home game? I mentioned it in another thread. The Belmont without 100,000 people was an absolute dud. Some noise is better than no noise.
  14. It was easy to kick the sports radio habit. I barely want to hear what those jokers think about sports. Starting in March they were stuck talking about anything BUT sports. No thanks.
  15. Wrong. The original post isn’t about Covid-19. It is about a politician’s public statements which incite fear. My post was a simple way of pointing out that this is in no way limited to the current President. Not my points at all.
  16. Remember when all those politicians and pundits said Trump was going to start a nuclear conflict with NKorea? Remember when we were going to war in Syria? Remember how killing Soliemani was going to start a war with Iran?
  17. Well I believe that the City is slow-rolling it to see how “back to school” goes. If there’s no spike then I’m of the opinion that we will see 50%. Then the next big step is what they do when the weather turns cold and outdoor seating becomes impossible. I’ll check out the link you posted but it’s my impression that it is a loser argument to force the City to relax restrictions quicker than they want to (whether I agree with that or not).
  18. Weird feel this year for sure. I haven’t watched ANY sports except the Belmont Stakes, and without the crowd in attendance, that was like watching any random Wednesday Race #8. I’m usually a big hockey fan and couldn’t get into the playoffs. I like to have a random baseball game on the radio or playing low on the TV. Not this year. Today, I’m psyched for football to get started. I am hoping it reignites my interest in all the sports I love. ...and I expect the first two weeks of the season to contain a lot of ugly football. That usually happens even when there’s a full slate of preseason games. A lot of good teams, on paper, screw themselves by playing poorly in the first few weeks.
  19. City indoor dining will start with restrictions on September 30. Here is an email I received from the City: Dear small business partner, With COVID-19 positivity rates hovering at or below 1% for over a month, we are excited to announce that restaurants will be able to offer limited indoor dining beginning on September 30th! This is a huge win for our small business community, and we are so grateful to all New Yorkers for the hard work that went into keeping COVID-19 rates so low. Early Guidance for Indoor Dining Restaurants will be allowed to reopen for indoor dining beginning on September 30th. They will be subject to rigorous inspection protocols and strict occupancy limits. Some requirements for restaurants include: Serve customers at a maximum of 25% capacity Conduct temperature checks at every front door Collect Test & Trace data from at least one customer at each table Close bar tops for seating Offer COVID-19 protections like PPE for employees Space tables six feet apart If New York City hits 2% in COVID-19 positivity rates, the City will immediately reassess. Once indoor dining begins, the public will be able to call 833-208-4160 to make a report or text VIOLATION to 855-904-5036. Please continue to watch for emails from us as more information will be shared in the coming weeks leading up to September 30th.
  20. Best case scenario. Still ugly.
  21. From your keyboard to God’s ears! I expect a bit of sloppiness and a tidy win.
  22. Nice phrasing in that article: ”she began using the pink colored device inside the business.”
  23. Wait, you’re sh***ing on peace in the Middle East? WTF?
