SETXsports Basketball Rankings coming soon!!
TxHoops replied to AggiesAreWe's topic in High School Boys Basketball
They will be very tough. EC will have the coaching advantage as usual though. And next year they will be the team returning everyone, again. They would be a year ahead of schedule if they make it this year but wouldn’t surprise me. -
Who was it who predicted Herman to LSU when his agent was obviously using the little tigers as bait? Before they settled and hired Coach Mushmouth? Jimbo ain’t leaving a blue blood program to go to a second tier program unless he’s forced out....

It may not be this year but Sutherland will make another trip to state with this EC group. -
Trump has the same chance of being innocent (although he might has as many, if not more accusers) as Harvey Weinstein and Bill Cosby. And Cosby has hung one jury after all. One difference might be that they weren’t caught on camera bragging about sexually assaulting women. But yes, someone could have been paying these women to accuse Trump over the course of a few decades. That is possible I suppose. And it may have been a coincidence that he bragged about doing that of which he has been accused. I clearly never said if more than a couple accuse, it makes anyone guilty. I do believe in logic and the laws of probability in general. The statistics would say a small percentage of women who are assaulted actually come out. But I have found very little logic used in those who believe the opposite. And a heavy dose of denial. Again, it is not news nor a debate I particularly care to have regarding Trump and his treatment of women. It’s not new, nor a shock to those who have known him apparently. What does shock me are those who are intent in burying their heads in varying places in his defense. I guess it is an attempt to make themselves feel better in their support of him? You won’t see me doing the same with Bill Clinton, at least on this subject.

Most are confidential and aren’t disclosable to the public. I know one of the harassment cases was dropped after trump settled a case with the accuser’s boyfriend. I believe another is still pending.

I was kind of surprised he got out on bail. I read where simple shoplifting in China carries penalties of 3-10 years in jail. Yikes. What a couple of numbskulls though.

The Trump Card: [Hidden Content]

This kid is the real deal. Last year’s draft was loaded and I think he would have been the top pick (without the Philly trade). This year, I can’t imagine him going before Bagley, Porter or Ayton. Some legit perennial all stars at the top of this one. Williams from A&M may drop about 10 spots (from where he would have gone if he’d come out) just due to depth. But I think he too will be a solid pro.
-
AAW is no joke with this. Been watching his picks for a few years now. What I like is he tells before hand what games he takes. Beware of those who tell you after the games how much they won. Unlike me who could always tell you exactly what I lost :/

Team first called cruises floating Walmart’s while you were gone. And that they were for “low lifes trying to live the high life!” It may just be that he’s upset they don’t take camel bucks or Copenhagen lids. Tough to say...
-
Brown and Bridges are both very good players. This kid has a lot of game and size though.
-
I think that’s Terron Brown. Might be the best non-Silsbee player in the district.
-
[Hidden Content] Holton Hill suspended for season. Next man up. Not sure how costly this will be for Hill - latest projections have shown him to be a Top 10 pick. Could drop for disciplinary issues. That makes two top 10 draft picks on our roster unavailable (Hill along with Connor Williams). Jefferson the only first rounder suiting up at this point.

Soooo, you were NOT around when aggy won its only natty. But then again, who was??

I had the same thought yesterday. This attrocity happened in our State, a few hours away, in a house of worship. And when I heard about it, I thought dear Lord, not another one. I was saddened for the families and communities. But not shocked in the least. And that’s pretty sad as well...

Another “domestic terrorist.” Doesn’t matter the race, religion, etc., a terrorist is a terrorist. No need for a trial with this one. He’s already faced the ultimate trial I’m sure. Hellfire cant be too hot for these evil SOBs...

Nah, he’s being facetious. I hope. Otherwise I’m gonna have to add Nash to the list of people I need to avoid...

It Looks Like The Democratic Party Is The Actual Party Of "Grab-Um!"
TxHoops replied to Reagan's topic in Political Forum
And the problem is most all of those in DC, whether they have a D OR an R by their name want to do just that. They just want to spend the money on “their stuff.” -

That is an excellent point. -
This might be a bit off topic but at least tangentially related. And this thread reminded me of when I read this recently. Was anyone else under the false impression that serial killers are almost always white males? I’m certain I’ve heard this recited often, probably in movies/television programs. Anyway, the actual statistics I read from a recent study do show the white/non-Hispanic male is the culprit in a slight majority of serial cases (around 52% iirc), blacks are responsible for around 40% of said cases. If you cross-apply societal demographics, other conclusions can be drawn. However, males are ALMOST always the perps. Now pedophiles, the white male dominates this segment of society’s scumbags. To tune of about 80%.

TxHoops replied to Reagan's topic in Political Forum
I got your point, hence the first sentence of my quoted post I think, like the many examples stated, this board is a microcosm of the Capitol. I don’t see much, if any, calling out of instances of wrongdoing from the party they support (note this is calling out both sides, at least a half dozen times I’ve done so this weekend). I do see, however, plenty of excuse making for their “guy,” and again, from both sides. And I’ve heard the constant shatter of glass from stones being thrown from each side, among their respective glass houses. Yes, just another weekend in the life of the political board. -

I am calling out people on both sides. That I don’t see too much from this board at all. If ever. And again, the other side is hypocritical so we’ll be hypocritical is discourse/debate at its most juvenile. So in an effort at a bipartisan display of our Washington’s finest who have demonstrated an inability to control impulses created by their nasty bits (involved in scandal involving sex), I will say shame on you to the following who have been outed in the recent administrations. My apologies is it shatters any notion that one side or the other has a greater proclivity for engaging in such shamefulness: Buz Lukens (R-OH) Robert Bauman (R-MD) Jon Hinson (R-MS) Thomas Evans (R-DE) John Schmitz (R-CA) Dan Crane (R-IL) Gerry Studds (D-MA) Gary Hart (D-CO) Ernie Konnyu (R-CA) Jim Bates (D-CA) Teddy Kennedy (D-MA) Barney Frank (D-MA) Gus Savage (D-IL) Arian Stangeland (R-MN) Buz Lukens (R-OH) - Again Austin Murphy (D-PA) Charles S Robb (D-VA) Brock Adams (D-WA) Robert Packwood (R-OR) Ken Calvert (R-CA) Helen Chenoweth-Hage (R-ID) Bob Barr (R-GA) Dan Burton (R-IN) Robert Livingston (R-LA) Newt Gingrich (R-GA) (+one of the most impressive showings of direct hypocrisy in History) Henry Hyde (R-IL) Pete Domenici (R-NM) Bill Clinton (D) Mel Reynolds (D-IL) Gary Condit (D-CA) Ed Schrock (R-VA) Strrom Thurmond (R-SC) Steven LaTourette (R-OH) David Dreier (R-CA) Don Sherwood (R-CA) Mark Foley (R-FL) David Vitter (R-LA) Randall L Tobias (R) Larry Craig (R-ID) Tim Mahoney (D-FL) Viro Fossella (R-NY) John Edwards (D-NC) John Ensign (R-NV) Chip Pickering (R-MS) Eric Massa (D-NY) Mark Souder (R-IN) Chris Lee (R-NY) Anthony Weiner (D-NY) Scott DesJarlais (R-TN) David Wu (D-OR) Herman Cain (R) Vance McAllister (R-LA) Denny Hastert (R-IL) Donald J Trump (R) (some allegedly occurred when he was a democrat though, to be fair) Tim Murphy (R-PA) I don’t care if there is a D, R, or whatever by their name, I say shame on them if they were guilty. I will say that we in Texas must lead the country in coverups. I know of a couple high profile instances (including involving one who is still very much in power) that have never seen the light of day. One of which would make you fellas start vomiting like the dude from the crying game after the big reveal. Anyway, back on topic, contrary to the very thoughtful title of this thread, it looks like both parties have engaged in a massive struggle to see which can be the biggest perverts. What a shocker!!
