    Portland Protest/Riots

    I only wear my pajamas during the daytime when I scream at police and impede them when they are trying to do their job. At night its battle gear and riots. Do we still have some pastries left over?

    Trump, National Guard & Portland

    Tim has the right of it and Fnord is deep in the whackadoddle koolaid. Trump is solving -or at least trying to solve- longstanding, intractable problems with new approaches. He doesn't much care for following the same precedents that don't work. Securing neighborhoods in crime blighted communities is one such problem and it nets him votes among the residents who live there, aren't criminals, and like safe streets. Undermining Democrats by peeling off hard working blue collar minorities living in failed Democratic Party strongholds represents the future grown of the Republican Party. The only election altering going on is attempts at changing people's minds about which party is actually beneficial for themselves, their communities, and their country. There's no reason why decent people of good character of any skin tone should be voting for the Democratic Party. The Republicans are the party of decent honest people who work hard and play by the rules. The Democrats are the collection of well meaning but deluded environmentalist and abortion advocates in an alliance with socialists, race hustlers, criminals, drug cartels, sexual perverts, terrorist supporters, illegal aliens, and welfare cheats overseen all loosely controlled by corporatist globalist jet-setting elite who have no qualms about exporting / offshoring American jobs to third world sh*tholes. The only thing they have going for them is spreading fear about fascism and whatnot. I happen to notice we're the good guys that love the country and its history and its values while they're the ones spreading America hating white colonialism, white supremacy garbage and going through history turning all the people they like gay.
  3. I wonder if there is any difference between the way this guy behaves in real life and the way he plays Grand Theft Auto.
  4. I have fond memories of Guizhou as that was where I got my first teaching job in China.
  5. The reason Democrat politicians want ICE agents unmasked is because they know thousands of crazed radical fanatics like this guy exist and want them to intimidate the officers.
  6. Being a BLM looter doesn't pay the bills anymore so Soros asked her to take up the kazoo.

    NFL Power Rankings Week 6

    To my thinking, there are some 4-1 teams I have behind them but I just like Washington more. I wasn't punishing them for missing Jayden Daniels vs Atlanta and they do have an impressive W against the Chargers to go with that loss to Green Bay. Maybe, after watching what happened last year as a Lions fan, this is a team that I give more respect to than you think I should. I'd rather the Lions run across every team from 7-32 in the playoffs, as well as San Francisco and Green Bay, rather than deal with Washington again. I

    ***Official*** Happy Football Day Week 5

    I got lucky taking Arizona in a survivor league in week two, when they had a home game against Carolina. This is a game I would avoid going forward. At the time I'd thought Carolina was a joke and the entire NFC West was brutal. Well, Carolina is finally looking halfway decent this year, while one particular NFC West team is not like the other three. In the end, the Cards came through for me, so I was happy about that. That said, if I had Arizona still available for week five at home against Tennessee, I absolutely would have taken them because Tennessee is horrid. Ah, and the way they lost to Tennessee too, oh no, that was brutal.

    MNF: Chiefs @ Jaguars

    Should be a good game. One team wants to show that it belongs in the conversation after a down season, the other wants to show it still has the mojo of a Super Bowl contender.

    Buffalo unis tonight...horribad

    Those were ugly too and I was thinking the same thing when I saw them. Agree with the sentiment of the thread.

    US Federal Government Shutdown Thread

    This vote doesn't require a strict majority in the Senate, where rules requires 60 votes out of 100. The Democrats can block it since the GOP only has 53 members.

    MLB 2025

    Lucky to be back in this, batters disappeared for seven innings.

    MLB 2025

    I think they'll win today, but the batters aren't impressive and all these runners left on base is a troubling trend.

    Just saw that Marvin Harrison TD catch this week. Pretty impressive. He's really come on strong almost instantly after Jerry and I chatted about him halfway through last week's game.

    Its nice to see the EU doesn't seem inclined to save democracy by cancelling election results again this time.

    MLB 2025

    Getting the first was huge. Gotta win those non-Skubal games. Now we have him for game two and potentially game five.
  18. Just last week in Indianapolis, somebody finally committed a more embarrassing fumble than his.
  19. No. It is about drugs. Will you admit your theory of war vs Venezuela is bogus when you lose your challenge to Meglamanic in "a few months?" I hope you ll conceed that we do have to call BS at some point. How about the end of Trump's first term, January 2027?

    🚨 Hamas agrees to release all Israeli hostages 🚨

    Wow! Let's see if there is any actual agreement. If those hostages do indeed get released, that'd be a big step in getting there.
  21. Great idea. I'll forward it to Pete Hegseth.
  22. You gotta cut it off somewhere. Soon we'll feel sorry for team #77. Just scratch the regular season entirely and invite 3000 teams. If we run out of colleges to invite, open it up to workplace or beer league teams or any group of twelve people that want to participate.
  23. Gonna have to bump this thread in a few month to see who's right. How many are 'a few', Tim?
