  1. Out of likes before 11 am. I need to get some work done.
  2. Onomastics has never been a strong suit of Fox & Friends. Or Kilmeade was just trying to revive his “all terrorists are Muslims” hypothesis.
  3. Ian David Long doesn’t quite have a Hajji ring to it...
  4. Best season they’ve had in a while. Much needed to since, in my humble opinion, FTWD had become the better show (John Dorie might be the best character in the franchise). Anyway, all the pontificating this week made me think of this scene, which might be my favorite in the series. And I would be in favor of giving Trump the monarchy we all know he secretly wants, as long as this guy is the king: [Hidden Content]
  5. I rarely lurk on this board but posts like these have me wondering why. Very nice, both of you
  6. By the way, why is Colorado claiming a “first” in their governor’s race when our state carried that flag in it’s governor’s mansion for a decade and a half? Does it have to be “open” to count?
  7. Loved* it. And as with all great humor, there’s always at least a bit of truth in there.
  8. Yes, he lost to a trust fund baby, turned reality tv star. Did anyone mention low information voters ITT?
  9. I see what you did here. This is funny, I don’t care who you are!
  10. He’s not in that league basketball-wise. But he’s really good and underrated in some respects from a skills aspect because of his athleticism. And he might be as good of an athlete (or better) as I’ve seen in my lifetime. He is 6-7, 285 (minimal body fat) with a 40 inch vertical. He could literally put on 20-40 lbs and be the best athlete on a football field...playing left tackle. To put it simply, he’s a freak.
  11. I think you might be right. If you can get within 2.6 percentage points in a statewide race in this State, you might have legs nationally. Popular with the young voters, women, etc. Hell he lost by less than Dan freaking Patrick’s opponent which is amazing (and proves something about straight ticket voting, albeit on the other side, that was mentioned earlier in this thread). And let’s be honest, compared to some of the names that are bantered about by the Dems...
  12. Agree with all of this. Zion is a kid who would have been a lock NFL player years ago. They’ve figured out longer career, larger and guaranteed contracts, 100xs the shoe money, etc in basketball. The zions and lebrons of the world would have ended up in canton, Ohio had they chosen the pigskin.
  13. Zion is about 3 inches taller than Barkley was and plays even longer. He will be fine. As far as the G league, heard an interesting discussion from Stan Van Gundy this morning. He said he doesn’t think it will effect the top players because the $125k the G league can pay would be a pay cut.
  14. No doubt. Not only didn’t lose seats, should pick up a few.
  15. All in all, about what the smart money projected, Dems take house, senate remains red. Far short of a “blue wave.” Or a red one for that matter. For those of us with little to no faith in Washington, stalemates are usually a good thing.
  16. Ok we can dispense with this nonsense of Duke at #4. That was a butt whoopin. By the way, Florida State is pretty good this year too.
  17. Cruz’s victory speech showed a lot of class and thought he was very gracious to Beto and his supporters. And I didn’t think his wife was hideous at all as “some” have implied.
  18. RJ Barrett is unbelieveable. Although maybe unlikely, Barrett, Williamson & Reddish could conceivably go 1-2-3 in the draft. And Tre Jones is maybe the best freshman PG in the country. THAT’S how phenomenal this class is for Coach K.
  19. Cruz projected as a winner by CBS by a 3 percent margin.
  20. The Big XII has been imo the best basketball conference consistently BEHIND the ACC. I think this could be the weakest we have seen the conference since it’s inception other than Kansas. If as good as advertised, I think SEC is second best league followed by Big 10
