Engorgeous George 2,331 Posted January 31 58 minutes ago, CaptainObvious1 said: That's your difference? You can support rape because he coaches basketball but voting for Trump is your line? Knight's comment did not support rape, it simply suggested an ignorant coping stategy IF being raped. Also, he did not throw that chair At someone. He threw it unaimed, at no one, at everyone. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
thegeneral 3,214 Posted January 31 43 minutes ago, CaptainObvious1 said: You don't understand being a fanboy of someone that enjoys rape? Bobby Knighr’s comment about rape was not saying he endorsed rape he was being a betch because he was getting challenged and made that ridiculous analogy. He was an asshat who became a caricature of himself at the end of his career which was sad to watch frankly. I certainly wouldn’t want him in charge of anything outside talking about motion offense. So to Trump why people love listening to him talk is bizarre. He’s a complete embarrassment. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He speaks for the country on the world stage. The other guy blows a whistle and screams at basketball players to set screens. I would not vote for Bobby Knight to be dog catcher. Well maybe when I was 12 you were screaming about Trump and saying the same things when he WASN'T running the country (i.e. the last 4 years). Same as Bobby Knight - not running the country.

I am willing to answer questions, folks like you just won't ask me. You're too scared of being challenged due to intellectual failings, so you revert to direct attacks and whataboutisms. I've read your posts. That's all you do, pile on like the schoolyard bully that flunked 3rd grade twice. Never an original or interesting thought. Prove me wrong and I'll admit I'm wrong.

Here's the thing, without snark or insult: This is a huge problem with our politics these days. Many on boff sidez simply refuse to even listen to each other. Mostly we all want the same things, despite our differences. I have no hate toward the vast majority of conservatives/ Republicans/ MAGA. Engaging with them here is the only realistic way for me to understand what they are thinking, since most people I know and spend time with are fairly liberal and I don't usually talk politics with them or the conservatives I know. Unfortunately, most of the conservatives here are card-carrying MAGA, and are incapable of or refuse to engage in real conversation. You will find I am quite respectful of others, assuming they treat me the same. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Careful, I can drink quite a lot when the time/place is right. Damn, I haven't been to the Cabooze in many years, since Greazy Meal was basically the house band. Had some good times at that joint.
