Joe hasn't posted here in many hours, and last we knew, he had an air of sadness around him that can only be described as profound. I'm concerned, not profoundly, but probably in the "moderately" category. I guess I would say that I'm moderately concerned that Fergie was profoundly sad and is now ostensibly absent. Prayers all around to everyone, even the ***** and the people who so-label them.

I enjoyed the previous iteration, more voices make for a better experience. However, let's be fair, certain posters were bounced and they took other good posters with them. I enjoyed interacting with the vast majority of the posters who frequent the other board, I just am a creature of habit. Btw, when I first started posting, one guy was wound very tight. I hate to misname him, but maybe OC in something? I recall he sorta threatened me with a **** storm for reasons I cannot recall (probably sarcasm or irreverence on my art--I'm in recovery still). I'm a pretty average guy....and have never tried to convince myself that I am tougher than I actually am. However, it struck me as delightful and hilarious that an anonymous person was threatening another anonymous person on a message board.

Come on, Boyst. While there are a precious few apparently knowledgeable football folks on the main board, it's really a compilation of spleen jokes, pegula plane sightings, tempo, and we're going to win it all or the sky is falling posts. Even the people that seem to offer insight are spitballing from a perspective completely unlike that which McD and Beane deal with. In other words, it's mostly a bunch of posters posting about things they really don't know much about. Oh, and the occasionally grumpy moderator trying to herd cats. Now, that said, it's a great board and a place for people to shoot the ****. One of my favorite elements is when someone drops a good one liner in an otherwise serious conversation. If people want to do that here...so? Let's put away the yearbook for the good old days, let people live and let live.

Worst. Friendsgiving. Ever. 😞

Kemp be closing doors when the windows be open.

Presumably the students were off to assist the Imam with the cutting off of the fingers, all hands on deck sorta thing. Pretty bad all things considered.

You b@stard.

I doth do speaketh of justice, Othello! It’s not my fault you can’t keep up with thoughts shared previously—-maybe take a supplement? And I don’t have any fancy idioms about fish hooks, but my simple suggestion is tell the truth more, embellish less, and respect may yet come your way.

The pursuit of justice? Absolutely. A person’s right to defend him/herself in a court of law? Yes. Do you advocate otherwise?

Well, the best course of action if they feel he's guilty of criminal wrong-doing is to pursue charges relentlessly. Appeal if they can, pursue if possible, continue to investigate other wrongdoing as need arises. At a minimum, this occupies his time, perhaps generates legal fees he has to contend with, serving as a deterrent to others of similar mind. Of course, he should certainly have his day in court.

Get a 17 pounder, drink early in the day to take the edge off. Tell them fatties at the table there’s a new sheriff in town, and he’s all about discipline and self-moderation. Supplement the turkey and trimmins with scrambled eggs for those who feel the need to engorge themselves on your dime. Tell em eggs are cheap, like $&@$ing Planet $&#*ing Fitness. I’m just spitballing here for now, let me work through it a bit. My gift to you.

So you’re saying no, he wasn’t a patriot from your perspective? You agree with Trump?

...and the dance continues.

Fair comment. Probably a good time to remember that there is a history, foe some, the history and the business of history.

Dick Cheney was accused of complicity in fabricating intelligence in a for-profit war. That war left a million people dead, including American sons and daughters, and many more catastrophically injured. Lives were changes, families shattered. You are allowed an arm's length view and the perspective that comes with it...you can sit and drink a Timmy Ho's, contemplate your time at University, plan a holiday. You use the term 'zed', your money is artistic, beautiful and colorful...and your painted ladies dance in the same suits as they were born in often artistic, beautiful and colorful. I ask you, NB, as a casual observer, was Dick Cheney a patriot?
