I read the Huff Post article, that @Gepetto posted. Are you saying that they took Butker out of context? I read that and I say, "yeah, looks about right". I agree with him. If people are against that, I think they're saying that the nuclear family isn't good. The Feminazi's are lying to women. The Catholic Church IS playing both sides of the fence on abortion. Biden's poor policies and leadership (along with the liberal platform), negatively impacts major life issues. Everything he said is true. Also, now that I see it's a Liberal Arts college (I thought it was a Catholic School), I'm even more confident that more than half of them wasted their money. It's probably like 80%. Not sure where the hypocrisy is. Also not sure where I've said hypocritical things.

@nobody, clearly he's still not getting it... OR, he's being a hypocrite and pretending not to be.

That's what I'm seeing.

Ever meet a Dallas fan, born and raised in the Philadelphia market?

At least you understood what I meant. Not surprised @GutterBoy didn't.

#1 is clearly Dallas Cowboys fans that never lived in Texas.

So.... just like Biden?

Actually, 7. LOL There were 2 more seasons after that one.

LOL... Gutterboy jumps to ban. JUMP Monkey! JUMP!!!

That party has him completely brainwashed. They did a good job on him.

Yeah, 5 years later.

Wrong thread.... that was "Demolition Man", not "Happy Days".

I don't disagree. The issue I see is where that adjustment will likely involve slowing down. That in turn will create a slower pace to the game and less shooting. Sure, it'll create less turnovers, but the number of shots per game for the team will go down. I'm not saying that's a bad thing, just saying that the high energy/fast pace style she's accustomed to, won't translate. That's not bad for her, because she'll still probably be a great player. The "bad" part is that the WNBA (league officials), won't get what they were hoping to get. They'll get Steve Nash, not Steph Curry. A Steph Curry type player will bring a lot of new eyes to the game, a Steve Nash type player won't. They already have those, and they don't draw.

That almost never happens, in any sport.

Which is why 5 days later... he has no response.

I wouldn't pay that for a Mahomes jersey.

Imagine criticizing a man for celebrating his religious beliefs, at a religious school, in a country that was built on religious freedom.

Freeman looking down on him like he's a complete moron, is the best part. He didn't even have to talk to give him a smack down.

None of us are.

Sheesh, even I can do that!!! Though, I can't guarantee it goes straight. I've been known to hit a few perpendicular and backwards. Also had a few times where the club went further than the ball.

Try it from their perspective some time. You won't be amazed any more.

THIS is a very true statement.

The difference between Skenes and a lot of pitchers is that he wasn't really a pitcher until he was 20 years old. In high school, he was first and foremost a catcher. He only pitched occasionally, an inning or two here and there. In his Jr year of HS (2019), he pitched 3 innings during the season and 7 innings in a playoff game. That was it. His SR yr (2020... obviously COVID year), he only threw 27 innings. In Perfect Game Showcases and travel ball, he primarily caught and hit. He only pitched occasionally. When he got to Air Force, he pitched only 26 innings his freshman year and 85 his sophomore year. In an interview pre-MLB 2023 draft, he said that prior to that year, from high school up, he totaled less than 85 IP. He has no where near the wear and tear on his arm, shoulder, and body that pitchers do by this point. After the 2023 college and pro year, he said his total IP... in his LIFE, is less than 300. As a frame of reference, in college along, Strausburg threw over 240... willing to bet that in high school and travel ball, he had doubled that number. Willing to go out on another limb and say that before Strausburg threw 1 pitch at the ML level, he was around 1000 IP... more than triple what Skenes had.
