    Trump's objection to his Colorado Statehouse Portrait

    Imagine if you were President and there was a bad portrait of you in a Colorado statehouse... how would you react? Take the high-road and deal with actual important government issues, or go on social media and rant about it? Read Trump's posts about celebrities who've criticized him over the years - immediately retaliates calling them "loser, washed up, cheap, over-rated, second rate, has-been, the worst, unfunny, etc." You'd think those statements were the ravings of an insecure adolescent. Nope, it's the President.

    ***Wagering thread***

    162 game season resulting in 2,430 regular season games over the next 7 months, followed by a month of playoffs. All to decide a Series matchup between: Dodgers / Braves -vs- Yankees / Orioles "Baseball Fever - Catch it!"

    Patriots Land WR Stefon Diggs

    Last year in PPR, Diggs ranked 44th overall (late 3rd) or Wr 21. That was with high-flying Houston and Dell hurt to start the year. Without looking.... I'd guess about mid 5th this year. And the answer is per Fantasy Pros: 101st overall (mid 8th), or Wr 44. A bit later than I figured.

    Patriots Land WR Stefon Diggs

    Must've been thinking of Polk. Now that I'm looking at Patriots wr depth... rather barren. Douglas, Boutte, Polk. Perhaps Diggs gets more volume than I figured.

    Patriots Land WR Stefon Diggs

    Diggs played 53% slot with Houston, which made sense with Collins going deep. Even his last year in Buffalo, Diggs was terrible at the long-ball. Now with Nabers, he's definitely slot... which usually isn't great for fantasy barring massive volume, which I doubt Diggs sees.

    NY Giants sign Russell Wilson to 1 yr deal.

    Richardson STUNNED me (and I'm a gator fan). I was surprised he even went pro that year, let alone drafted in the 1st round, let alone taken 4th overall. His stats were abysmal. Didn't know Milroe's passing stats weren't all that. Guess that explains it. Still, we're not talking 4th overall like Richardson - that was bananas.

    NY Giants sign Russell Wilson to 1 yr deal.

    2023 ... Arizona traded their 3rd and 105th overall picks for Houston's 12th and 33rd. Houston selected LB Will Anderson.

    NY Giants sign Russell Wilson to 1 yr deal.

    Agreed. I'm surprised at the lack of hype for Bama's Jalen Milroe who's only projected late 2nd/early 3rd. Seems like the kind of qb teams usually drool over with the running/passing skills - a Jayden Daniels prototype to my eyes. Perhaps the Giants trade down and look for Milroe or Dart in the 2nd round.

    NY Giants sign Russell Wilson to 1 yr deal.

    Interesting, mainly because what it means for the draft ... 1) Titans 2) Browns 3) Giants Cam Ward is going to Tennessee no doubt, but there doesn't seem to be any consensus on whether Browns take Shedeur Sanders.... some mocks say yes, others say no. Difficult to believe they'd really stick with Watson/Pickett, but what do I know. Seems like the Giants wouldn't sign Wilson if they plan on drafting a Qb, but the Falcons did exactly that last year after signing Cousins to multiple years, so maybe they might.
  12. Not "globalists in the UN" (whoever that is), but long standing allies of the US. And not "mad", but even more unlikely to share intelligence than they already were. That's not good. Intelligence sharing is a tool to prevent terrorism. BTW, sarcastic childish responses isn't how intelligent people discuss topics, Johnny.
  13. It did more than that. US allies were already hesitant to share intelligence because of Trump's first term when he kept leaking classified information. Then came Trump's disturbing behavior in recent months - sympathizing with Putin, attacking allies with tariffs, and threats of annexation. Now this clown show handing of military intelligence.
  14. It's not Putin's fault for ordering Russian troops to invade. Nope, it's "mostly Biden's fault." Give me a break. Ya want to point fingers of being indirectly at fault, fine .... let's start with Bush Jr. who was President when Russia invaded Georgia in '08 taking 20% of their land and still "owns" it - Bush did nothing. How about Obama in '13 when he warned Russia not to cross the "red line" giving Syria chemical weapons - they did, but Obama did nothing. In '14 Russia annexed Crimea in front of the world - Obama did nothing and neither did Europe. What did Trump do about Russian election meddling? Nothing. What was the UK's response to Russia murdering and attempted murders of his political opponents, while in their countries? Nothing. What was the world's response to Russia's repeated global cyberattacks? Nothing. Etc... I guarantee nobody was more surprised to the world's reaction over Ukraine than Putin.

    Thinking of buying a Tesla

    I think the damage is done - the brand is tarnished not only by Americans, but Europeans as well. The day Trump took office Telsa stock closed at $354.40. Now it's $271.71 - down 23.3%. Sales have tanked in spite of increased EV sales world wide. Investors are also nervous about Trump's tariffs on Canada and Mexico... post-poned again or enacted in April.?. Might not matter if no one is buying.
  16. My plan is for the US and EU to massively increase Ukraine support and more Russian sanctions, and make it perfectly clear to Russia they can't win. Obviously not Trump's plan so hopefully the EU alone can provide enough support to keep Ukraine afloat and wait out the depleting Russian military and economy. The Russian military (like their economy) is holding on by shoe-strings.... using donkeys/camels, sending wounded men back to the front on crutches, resorting to North Korean soldiers, and desperately trying to sign new recruits with ever increasing incentives. This a result of meat wave tactics creating nearly one million casualties. Ukraine's counter-offensive in year two was a failure, which some experts say the main problem was Ukraine using NATO tactics with combined arms including ground and AIR. Ukraine attacked with virtually no air support and the results were disastrous. Today Ukraine's air power is significantly increased, but like you said with the Russians so dug in, another counter-offensive might not be so effective. Thus, simply waiting out Russia's depleting military is probably be the only strategy. I don't believe attacking a NATO country in the future is "off the table." Imagine if NATO was attacked tomorrow by Russia. Do you really believe Trump would send in military? Doubtful based on his actions/words, and without US support other NATO members would be much less inclined to fight as well. Trump has minimized the deterrent - as was feared. Trump gets credit for one thing - he's gotten Europe to get off their lazy butts and spend on military realizing they can no longer depend on the US. Unfortunately, it's come a huge cost of US influence.
  17. Both are murderous dictators who invade sovereign nations. But you don't see a similarity? Oh yeah "only focking buffoons" see that. Nobody knows if Putin will invade a NATO country or not, not even you smart guy. But we should make sure he doesn't by helping Ukraine kick Russia's army back to the stone age. "But the Pentagon Papers, assassination conspiracies, and other crap that has nothing to do with the discussion..."
  18. All immigration should've been shut down 100 years ago. Our ancestors sold us down the river.

    Discovery under the pyramids of Giza

    When ya Youtube this, all ya get is some picture renderings (guesses) and freaks in wife-beaters talking about aliens. Sounds like they found underground areas built by slaves, which were surprisingly deep for the time. Cool. What else ya got?

    George Foreman has died

    Mention that famous line and then ask WHO knocked down Frazier ... 99% say Ali. You and me are in the 1%.
  22. Trump thinks the free press writing bad stuff about him is "illegal." Yeah pathetic, but not surprising from him. Add it to the mountain of lies and disgusting things he keeps spewing. I'm happy to say not every Trump voter supports his crap, unlike many Fox nutjobs you read here. Several of my conservative friends who voted for him have expressed regret. Mainly from the tariffs and sucking Putin's d*ck. Trump was interviewed today and the reporter said "you campaigned saying you would end the war in 24 hours.?." He replied "I was being sarcastic." Probably similar to when he said "I will end inflation on day one!" He said that over and over in campaign speeches with his supporters cheering him on. I guess they didn't realize he was being sarcastic.
  23. 200% tariff, wow. I wonder if there's any tariff amount on any product that Trump lovers wouldn't support.?. Or do they agree with every decision, no matter what. What are the chances of being unbiased, and yet still agreeing with every single statement and every decision. That's incredible. So, if Biden had done this, yall would've cheered him on?
  24. GobbleDog

    Yeah...I'm a bit worried

    "The only thing that makes sense is for Canada to become our Fifty First State. This would make all the tariffs and everything else disappear... The artificial line of separation drawn many years ago will finally disappear and we'll have the safest and most beautiful nation in the world." - Donald Trump Mar 11, 2025. Trump is serious about annexing Greenland as well. He wants to expand U.S. territory just like his hero - Putin the imperialist murdering dictator.

    How long have you been here

    Joined in 2000 as Snookslayer to ask some ff question. Lost my password, so I made a new account.... if I'd known I'd be here this long I would've looked harder for my password, or at least thought up something better than my stupid dog's name. I remember logging on Sep 11, 2001... there were lots of threads on the mange board: "US under attack!", "Thousands dying", etc.... then an occasional "if they still play this week, should I start McNair?"
