  1. And 3 drops. And no pads. And and and. I’m not going to get into completion percentage in camp unless he’s just plain not throwing well, which by all accounts is not the case.
  2. I think that’s your answer. Saw a few tweets that he’s not getting a lot of looks and would be a long shot to crack the roster based on how the coaches are not using him.
  3. Your digression was, umm, interesting. I keep pointing out what I think is crazy. Because. It. Never. Stops. How many times can conspiracy gang keep hyping “the next big thing” “coming soon?” And tell us to “be ready.” I don’t know but the crew is trying to find out if there’s a limit. And I’ll keep noting it every 4th or 5th time because it’s like watching what a Hollywood soap opera scriptwriter does with the last 10 minutes on Friday. Keep em coming back!
  4. You all can still post your secret society stuff. And I can point out when it’s goofy. After a term in the bench, now seems like a moment when Hedges might admit all those posts seem crazy. And maybe, just maybe, there are other instances of this. We can disagree here. If I’ve hurt his feelings, I do apologize.
  5. Are you guys giving up on the RBG secret funeral service narrative finally? I tip my hat to that top notch nonsense. Hedges really liked that one. I like this from the NR article. “On Wednesday night, Ginsburg delivered a 30-minute speech looking back at the 2018 Supreme Court term and Stevens’s life, before participating in an hour-long question-and-answer session with Duke Law professor Neil Siegel, one of her former clerks. When Siegel asserted during the Q&A that “nominees for the Supreme Court are not chosen primarily anymore for independence, legal ability, [and] personal decency, and I wonder if that’s a loss for all of us,” Ginsburg immediately defended Neil Gorsuch and Brett Kavanaugh. “My two newest colleagues are very decent, very smart individuals,” she said.” Kavanaugh and Gorsuch have been as good as expected. Top notch jurists.
  6. I’m relieved. Big storm coming soon. Heard it here first second third fourth fifth sixth... Next week?
  7. And yet many of the Dems want to continue to waste time with impeachment. Russia is the bad actor here and a bigger threat than all the pages wasted here on Mueller and pizzagate. More than Trump. More than the dossier.
  8. Don’t worry: I’m sure billsChan won’t be civil or decent until the Bills win the SuperBowl.
  9. I don’t think so. It may be here for now but we can be better and often are. Digging for divisiveness is a new past time for everyone and people think it’s ok to be ***** to one another behind screen names and keyboards in ways they would not be in real life. The emotional pain that delivers and forces on others is significant. It may feel like nothing to say “You are trash” to a fellow person but it hurts both people and others to read it. I believe there will be pushback at some point and we will find our way back to at the very least civility, and maybe even listening to one another’s experiences with compassion. When? I can’t say.
  10. They came out twice with technicians before giving me the bypass Ok.
  11. Tip O’Neil and Ronald Reagan used to have a weekly dinner and drink together. Both sides use rhetoric that seems to have forgotten that we are all “us.” I don’t think the majority of voters deep down believe it but the words deepen the divide. Echo chambers of all sorts too. And even partisan gerrymandering (which is a tool of both parties). If Nancy, Trump, and McConnell would share drinks on Friday nights, just that simple gesture, I’d feel a lot better. And I bet more ***** would get done in a better way.
  12. Yeah. Not budging from ideals and accepting a compromise will get them nowhere. That’s what too much Ayn Rand will get you and that’s another wing of the Libertarian party. It’s fine to have ideals but you have to be able to work with others or nothing gets done and everyone is a villain. The current Dems and Reps are a case study that the Libertarians are refusing to learn from. Most of the silent majority would be happy with a centrist who wasn’t a divisive jagoff. No one like that has a chance with our primary system in the current party structure, and a media (and viewers) that get off on the incivility of the comments sections of news stories. Almost wonder if a Civility party would make an electoral splash.
  13. If you’re lucky enough to have a tree that blocks the direcTV or live in a home or building where satellites are not allowed, they will give you Sunday Ticket streaming access. You of course have to pay for it. But a tech has to go to the house and verify. There is no way this crap offering survives another round of bidding to the NFL. They are losing revenue for sure.
  14. Maybe they are American first and have priorities before Israel and the anti-Semetic squad members.
  15. You’re out of the loop. He’s said he doesn’t quote me because he thinks I get paid when people do. Because I’m part of some conspiracy and paid to post here. Not a stupid tough guy thing and no offense taken. This is just something you didn’t know.
  16. The man in the echo chamber who is afraid to quote me pipes up. Next week right DR?
  17. Maybe the old white guys on this board might have a certain way of thinking about race that doesn't gibe with those who experience racism daily. If someone asked you to tell a story about a time when you were the victim of racism, would you be able to look to your experiences from today, yesterday, and the day before? Listening to different people's pain provides insight into the way people other than old white guys experience racism. A lot of suffering comes from people just being born with different skin color.
  18. He testified exactly as expected. Stuck to the report. Dodged any question he could not 100% link to the report. It was a waste of time but good that nothing has come of it. The report is what it is.
  19. You and the entire twit filtering board? You’re the only diversity here when all the old white men decide what is racist and sexist.
  20. The Libertarian Party cannot our up a credible presidential candidate. If they’d had someone not in sneakers running in 2018, they might have gotten to the critical 5% to get matching funds. Mostly they cant get out of their own way. The free drug culture bumps into more serious members. Watching their internal mechanisms is painful. Their philosophy is good. Their platforms are clear. Their execution is for s—t.
  21. Be sure to share tweets here because there’s no other medium in which to read them.
  22. Swiping at the front runner can help in the polls. Harris got a big bump for taking on Biden. Gabbard is trying to play the same game but she’s probably too far out of it to make a move.
  23. She was a bad choice. She gave a spectacular first speech. And then went downhill the more she opened her mouth. She was a terrible pick for VP and having her one step from the presidency rightfully made McCain’s judgment look more suspect. Once he did that, my vote for him fell off and I voted Libertarian.
