  1. That was close! I thought AMC almost had it.
  2. They haven’t really stopped Martin that much yet. Run clock.
  3. Martin’s really playing well. But, PAM needs to get someone else going.
  4. Y’all need to keep that extra TD buffer.
  5. This looks like QB vs QB. lol
  6. AMC is not going to go quietly…
  7. PAM needs to do it THIS year. They're losing some really big pieces. PAM's the one team from 9-5A I thought could make it through with only minor difficulties. Turn it up boys!
  8. Should have a good view from anywhere in the stadium.
  9. Lol From a portion of a publication appropriately named ’Obsessed.’ You should run for Congress. I suggest the 30th District. You’d fit right in, and could give the incumbent a run for their money.
  10. Growing up on a farm in Dalhart, TX., we were insured by Texas Farm Bureau. Yes. That’s what I think insurance should be. ‘Member owned.’ Our current medical insurance is non-profit run by Harris Health Dept. But, ACA requirements are still effecting costs. For medical insurance, I’d like to see split coverages for prescriptions similar to Medicare Part D. Prescription coverage is a huge adder onto major medical. If split out cafeteria style, with some type of credits, tax free HSA’s or similar, given to individuals where they could choose among different plans—or no plan—my belief is that people could save a sizable amount on premiums. Some people (don’t know a number, but I’d think a pretty good amount) only want major medical. They don’t need many expensive prescriptions. Others need the prescriptions more.
  11. Nothing wrong with a little regulation. Depends on the regulation. Even a conservative/libertarian/free market believer knows there has to be a little bit of regulation in most things. Otherwise, it's the Wild Wild West. I'm still in the camp of required/medical insurance should be issued by non-profit arms, or sole non-profit entities. Insurance--to me--is a shared risk business like a Credit Union. THAT would be the regulation I would seek.
  12. The video I was able to find didn't specify what orders they were being asked to disobey. It was also a stupid request the video participants themselves wouldn't have followed while serving. I am providing the Code of Conduct and consequences. A Servicemember gives up many rights. They knowingly do it when they choose to serve. It doesn't matter the circumstances. Active protesting by a Servicemember is disallowed, and disobeying a direct order will immediately send you to an Article 32. When a Servicemember decides to disobey an order, they darn sure better make sure the order isn't legal. Very few orders qualify, and their entire life will be ruined if they're wrong. POTUS hasn't ordered DOD personnel to do anything illegal or unconstitutional--regardless of this stupid video--and the DOD personnel know it. So do those on the video. Theater. Trump calling the people's actions on the video 'seditious and traitorous' is also theater. He has no idea what he's talking about. Hyperbole by all.
  13. Agree. But, Weiss is the most dangerous for most teams with that passing attack. They can run the ball pretty well also when you have to focus so much on the pass. If I were a coach, I’d rather play CS than Weiss right now. Playing a 70% passer in a prolific pass O isn’t a good recipe for most secondaries. (LP should have taken Weiss out. Staff let the boys down. Embarrassing to say the least.)
  14. I watched that game. Anderson sat quite a few starters. I didn’t think they would because of trying to keep their undefeated record. But, they did. Right now, the two most dangerous 12-5A teams are CS and Weiss. Your comparison of AMC to WB is fairly accurate IMHO as far as play style. But, AMC is much better. Anderson has a solid D and an adequate O. Anderson—even as the 1 seed is—IMHO—the weaker of the group.
  15. I would guess that much of the tariff policy was based on needing income to offset costs in the BBB. The Administration HAD to be thinking ahead about it, and wanted a talking point to show offsets. I don’t think it was all about new trade negotiations. Just a somewhat educated guess on my part.
  16. It’s against UCMJ for military personnel (in uni’s or not) to actively participate in protests. If you choose to disobey a direct order, you are immediately taken into custody to await court martial proceedings.
  17. I assume you're talking NE of me? BH? Crosby is actually north. I can root for the localish/SETX teams. But, I like Anderson's 2 LB's, and their D is used to a balanced passing attack. I think they'll pressure Barrier into mistakes and misfires. I like the Trojans by a score in this one.
  18. Epstein doesn’t even make the list of any poll taken about the public’s Top 10 concerns. Yes. Polls show most voters of all persuasions think the government is covering for power players. Most voters think all files should be released to the public. But—again—the issue doesn’t make their Top 10 concerns. Epstein doesn’t directly effect their daily lives.
  19. I would only have PAM making it out of this round. They would have an edge in weather moreso than any of the other teams.
