    I'm late to this topic so here goes: I agree with MDC, Gutter, and others that a college commencement is neither the time nor place for these types of comments. I agree with Gutter that the optimum situation is for women to have the choice to work or not. But... ... I agree with RLLD about the feminism side discussion. My wife is an engineer; we met at our first job out of college. When we had kids my career was in a position where she could first work part time, then stay at home for years. She received a LOT of negative feedback from some women -- female engineers were somewhat unicorns back in the 90s, and there was a lot of feminism pressure for her to stay at work. Interestingly, several of the most successful female engineers/managers made the same choice. We always believed that they, like my wife, wanted to excel at one job vs. be mediocre at two. Of course, situations vary, white privilege, class privilege, yada yada yada. I am not surprised that the pseud BeachGuy disparages people who believe in God. He can't get a CPA, but he knows the answers to deep metaphysical questions. The next time BeachGuy posts a fact will be the first. There may be more...

    Trump talk only- no Eagles talk allowed (Steelers talk is OK though)

    Yeah, but it also subconsciously ties him to the trials, possibly giving the perception that he is behind them.

    Also, why the insistence on network moderators? I presume it is because Team Biden will have them in their back pocket, get the questions in advance, do some more 2 on 1 debating like last time, etc.

    Also, Zal as 70th in SG Off The Tee. Hideki is 40th, and Burns (who I took instead of Zal) is 28th. Zal's overall SG summaries are not good this year, which in the end was probably the biggest factor in me passing on him. So again, congrats on the

    Trump was willing to do the debates as organized, which is how they've been done for decades.

    Biden is the one rejecting the current setup, reducing the number, and insisting on turning the mic off, which is a step AWAY from debate and TOWARD reading prepared statements, which is clearly the goal of Team Biden. They want no interchange, no actual debate. For obvious reasons.

    I was hoping that one of those last three picks would drop to me to pair with Clark. The fact that none did caused my "coffee" delay (along with taking a dump). I'm banking on Hideki backing (pardon the pun) out of Wells Fargo as mostly precaution. It's an injury he's been playing with for some time, and playing well when he plays, so I'm hoping he'll just work through it like he has been. Zal has pedigree but in addition to the possible injury, his recent performance hasn't been good, and he isn't a long hitter. Which probably means championship

    I passed on Zal because I didn't want an all-injury team, plus like you said, he hasn't played well. I felt like getting Clark at the 1/2 turn was good value, but he fell because of recent performance. Niemann is the highest ranked LIV player, but is he really that much (if at all) better than guys like Homa or Fleetwood picked later in the second?
  10. Thanks. I don't necessarily disagree, as I am fairly libertarian in my thinking. The challenge is, for this model to work, there needs to be an underlying acceptance of what is "harm." And a general selflessness or deference to the needs of others, which I believe we lack in our current hedonistic society (and might be part of a future installment of "cultural existential threats." ) For instance, to me, a biological man competing in women's sports is clearly doing harm to the other women. As is such a person being in a woman's locker room, spa, prison, even bathroom, if one is to err on the side of consideration for others. I've used before the example of my daughter with Type 1 diabetes. She is free to pursue whatever she wants... with restrictions. She can't join the military, for instance. Becoming a pilot or commercial truck driver is extremely difficult. This is how I view trans people.

    Yeah, but I look at my team and think meh... at the end turn, there was never one time where I was "ooh, awesome, he's still available." I was looking at piles of players who were all comparable.

    Good topic. I'll start with Chicago: Terry Kath (my favorite), Peter Cetera, and Robert Lamm. Also the Beatles

    Wow, you are spun up on this. That word is used here all the time. Your Leftist buddy Gutter used it Saturday. Feel free to go call him out, center right guy. But you won't. The diabetes thing made sense in the context of why you are so butt hurt by a word. It's 9 pm here, 11 pm in Texas. I agree it's bed time for one of us.

    I presume you are upset by the word because of your son. I would never use it in such a case. My daughter has type 1 diabetes, but most people conflate that with type 2, which is more behavior driven. I don't take it personally. I would suggest you do the same with my reference to a poster like weepaws. You dehumanize the former POTUS and current nominee with every Clownzo post, and I think less of you with each one.
  15. I don't know God's expectations. I do know that you are a pseud who dehumanizes not only Trump but all of his supporters Have a wonderful evening!

    For the remainder of this discussion, I shall refer to Biden as Clownzo. Clownzo's daughter wrote in her diary that her dad molested her. There are numerous videos of Clownzo sniffing the hair of underage girls and pinching their nipples There is nothing "legally in play" because the right hasn't figured out how to call paying off a porn star "election interference". I see you ignored Clownzo's drug-addled son. That being said, you are correct that it was Jill who slept with Clownzo while married. Have a good night!
  17. So what do you propose instead?

    Says the guy who dehumanizes Trump with Clownzo at every opportunity? And I said borderline retard. I admit that this phrase has a special meaning with @kutuluwho resurfaced recently, which made me think of it.

    And President Biden is a P.O.S. who sexually abused his daughter, cheated on his previous wife with Dr. Jill, and uses his drug-addled son to collect money for the Big Guy. Or at least used to, before dementia set in. Note I didn't dehumanize Biden with a silly name. Good night!

    Who is "Clownzo"? Is he the former POTUS, and current Republican candidate for president, as represented by a pseud Leftie, former journalist turned insurance salesman, who knows better than the majority of the country?

    What lies, I admitted to misrepresenting his position. People make mistakes. Jesus forgave such mistakes. You don't. HTH

    What lies did I say about you, or Jesus? I know you won't answer because you are a borderline retard, but I figured I 'd ask in the interest of conversation.

    All Political people are double minded

    I plan to vote for Trump given the current candidates. I see you continue to dehumanize him in a machiavellian way with your insistent use of Clownzo, congrats, you suck at being a Christian. Also, according to polls, you are in the vast minority of people right of center who will vote for a dementia-ridden guy increasing his support for Hamas terrorists. My bad, you made a point that she was a porn star, not a prostitute. Mea culpa.

    Is this your center-right position of Republicans? Also, @GutterBoy posted recently that Stormy is NOT a porn star, FTW%$#@#!
