Thanks! I’m genuinely interested to hear who’s still buying into the mask narrative. It’s an odd phenomenon for sure.

I’m curious…I live in extremely diverse California and I’d say the overwhelming number of people still wearing masks are Asian. Are you seeing the same thing?

I figured it had to be something like that. Hard to believe that the average Oregon fan cares all that much so many years later. It’s not like he’s had much of a stellar NFL career.

It’s funny you mention New York (New Jersey) because even though we play there every season, that’s one stadium I’ve never even thought about visiting. It looks to be totally without character.

While not what anyone wanted to see happen, the season ending injury to Hyde is providing a season experience for current replacements. So far, the defense is holding up just fine. On the defensive side of the ball Edmunds future is the key to the draft.

San Diego? 😉

What’s up with that tiny pocket of yellow in western Oregon watching the Atlanta v Cincinnati game?

I’ve been to many road venues over the years and with the exception of Oakland have always had a great time. Oakland was a sewer of the worst behaving fan base on the planet. Not sure how it is now that the Raiders moved to Vegas.

It’s got to be the 49ers so that we can finally erase the Curse of the Boomer who wrongly predicted that matchup for way way too many years in the early ‘90s.

Frank, you’re correct here. Politicians are not clergy. They are not supposed to represent their own views but rather the will and view of the people they serve. Thus the term “representative”. At the same time, if a political figure does claim to be a member of particular religious group then it’d be a good idea to clarify their personal vs their representative role view from time to time to avoid this needless confusion. Finally, with regard to Trump holding up a Bible in front of a church, I’ve never understood the outrage. What did you want him to hold up? A copy of Sports Illustrated? It’s a symbol of what a Church building stands for, much like a cross. Get over it.

Great overview. So how about we just do what McCarthy said and put in some effort to make sure there’s a measure of accountability for the tax dollars we’re shoveling into this conflict?

So you’re saying womens rights groups are purposely looking the other way? If true, and it might just be, then that makes them total frauds.

There’s a hidden agenda here. There’s no chance women fought so hard to reduce the objectivism of women to give it all up to a bunch of guys playing dress up! If these same men were dressed in black face, or as American Indians the outrage would be able to be heard from outer space. This is wrong for more reasons than the fact that there are children present.

Note that I didn't ask if it was fine by you. (no offense) My question is where are the Women's Rights advocacy groups in all of this? If this blatantly objectifying behavior isn't something for them to unanimously rally against, then what is?

Let me see if I have this correct: You don’t like Putin. Is that right?

Close….and what McCarthy is saying is that the aid better not be lining the pockets of traditionally corrupt Ukrainian officials with little to none of it seeing the battlefield. Seems pretty darn reasonable to me. I’ve grown accustomed to my tax dollars being burned in the fireplace of my own corrupt government. I’m much less inclined to have it be tossed in a fireplace halfway across the world.

As I’m sure you’ll agree, inflation is a complex issue, generally created by multiple factors. Everyone can opine on any number of them. What I have a problem with is those who seem intent on either denying it altogether, or blowing it off as no big deal. It’s a huge deal for the vast majority of the population who cannot increase their income at anywhere near the rate of their rising daily costs. This is yet another economic gut punch to people who just barely made it to the other side of the great COVID desert.

Still having trouble with English, I see? Again, for everyone in the class, that’s not what the term “blank check” means. You’re running out of tries. You might want to try logging out and then log back in as someone with a clue.

If I understand you correctly Frank, you’re basing your opinion on whether Americans are hurting on your observations at a $900 per night hotel and those buying steak at the grocery store? Sure! Them’s the people that are hurting. Marie Antoinette says hi!

I see. So as long as Ukraine asks for American taxpayer money, the Congress is obligated to give it to them, with no strings attached? Please tell President Biden that. Because that wasn’t his policy when he was the VP.

Much appreciated. Keep up the scouting.

Read the quote…it’s REALLY short… and learn basic English phrases. That is not what the term giving someone a ‘blank check’ means and you know it. So that’s why I’m responding to your partisan nonsense.

Or….you could just read the actual quote.

What I cannot understand here is why if you want to dress up like a woman do you immediately then act like a stripper? Is that the image of a woman that these guys promote? Where is NOW in all of this? They should be screaming to put a stop to these antics!

So if you notice, the quote is that “we’re not going to be sending a BLANK check to Ukraine”, and honestly we shouldn’t be. Nothing to see here….next!
