    Favorite Sports Movie

    Field of Dreams is in the top 5 for me. I really like a lot of sports movies though so it's hard to pick just one.

    DeSantis and his stupid laws

    From what I've read, there isn't any oversight of what those private schools do with that money either.

    I must have remembered it wrong then. I thought I read some complaints with republicans saying they didn't vote for this. Apparently they did and now they have to deal with the results.

    https://www.bleedingheartland.com/2023/01/24/the-twelve-iowa-republicans-who-voted-against-school-vouchers/ https://www.legis.iowa.gov/committees/meetingPublicComment?meetingID=35782&action=viewCommitteePublicComments The majority of complaints are not from republicans but there are more than usual. I've seen more republican against this than I've ever seen for anything else before. I think the majority of farmers in our state are republican and those farmers live in rural areas where there are no private schools close to them. This does not benefit most republicans in Iowa.

    Just my observations from seeing people's responses on social media and to the news articles. It may not be as bad as I think it is but I don't recall seeing republicans voicing their displeasure over other issues like this. I think it makes sense though, most Iowans feel similar about our education. We have a lot of rural area, why would we want to hurt our public schools?

    Wouldn't surprise me a tiny bit.

    Correct.

    I remember seeing a decent amount of republicans upset with it because they didn't know she was going to do it before they voted.

    DeSantis and his stupid laws

    Correct. The teachers I know were not happy with it and the same with a lot of the public. None of it matters now though. She is who the majority voted for and this is what she decided to do with our schools.

    From what I can remember, the general public in Iowa were upset with the voucher program because Reynolds did not run on that policy. A lot of people would not have voted for her if they knew that was what she was going to do. It's too late now so we'll just have to see how it works.

    The new voucher system.

    Loophole

    Him admitting to watching hours and hours of child porn is the most disturbing part. He seems to be getting a pass for that.

    I haven't seen the democrats or the republicans do anything to improve the situation yet. Our governor is republican and she has pissed off the majority of teachers in Iowa.

    It's been happening for years but it's definitely worse. Why would anyone want to become a teacher now?

    Sure. Here you go.

    It's literally an article from Florida about the topic of the thread.

    No. It was an article about the topic of the thread.
  20. I cheered for them but I also laughed when they lost. This was not a likeable team this time. I'm glad to see that Rapinoe is done, she was absolutely terrible this World Cup. I hope the team becomes more likeable so the whole country can get behind them.

    To be honest, it's pretty much the entire country.

    Sound of Freedom

    Let me know if this is incorrect. This guy has admitted to watching thousands of hours of child porn (for research purposes) and then is caught making up stories of what he's done? I'm starting to think this guy found himself a loophole to get away with being a pedophile.

    Round Twelve - Sixteen Commentary - July Mock 2023

    I don’t get it. I don’t see a big enough discrepancy in QBs to be doing that.

    Round Twelve - Sixteen Commentary - July Mock 2023

    I see a couple teams drafted 3 QBs. Not sure I've seen that very often.
