The cliche is the liberals are that make excuses and/or quit. Because they don’t like facts.

Fact.

The (actual, not establishment Democrat) Left was very consistent in condemning that strike, in addition to the rest of the drone program that targeted non-American citizens. But that's an evasion. Answer the question.

Says the person that insists on commenting on my non-point-having-posts. You and I both know that this is how these conversations always end. You’re wrong. You’ve been thoroughly proven wrong. You’re not emotionally mature enough to admit it or intellectually honest enough to get better sources/opinions. Your inferiority complex makes you rage quit and continue to be as dumb as you are if not more so. It’s a typical conservative strategy. Pretend to be an incensed, offended, or a victim so you have a reason to quit rather than taking up the challenge of growing. How about this. You’re runner and I’m glue… nee ner nee ner nee ner thpbpbpbpb You are a cliche.

We spend $151 Billion on unlawful immigrants each year. Thats after they pay any taxes. Look it up. It’s a fact.

Obama thought it was ok to extrajudicially assassinate American citizens. Not a lot of complaints about that...

Equal rights for all Legal people is an amazing thing. Self accountability is an even more amazing thing.

You’ve said numerous times you were done responding to my posts yet here YOU are again. enough said snow plow guy/gal from MN

The sheer numbers of unlawfuls entering under Biden compared to Trump makes it real easy to see the difference. Too bad snow plow guy/gal from Minnesota refuses to acknowledge this though.

Unions are corrupt and separate entities as the facts prove. The union doesn’t hire or fire people. But then anyone with half a brain knows this

Sounds exhausting to be constantly afraid of a smaller and smaller subset of people. And maybe but probably not realize that the only thing you were afraid of was the horror that they are EQUAL to you.

This hit on the drug boat is a good political litmus test. Do you think it's okay for the government to extrajudicially assassinate criminals?

You went from 100% to typically. Nice try RV wanna be or already is.

Your level of general anger in life is not healthy

You need to wake up and get in the real world. If there's demand, the drugs will find it. You'll never come close to stopping that. Key is to curtail demand for hard drugs and legalize the soft ones. Marijuana was a great start.

Jacksonville St is the one that catches my eye the most - geographically it's a major outlier.

Unions represent groups of workers for purpose of negotiating pay, conditions and benefits. Period. Anybody that tries to portray them as completely separate is an idiot.

A touch off-topic but the point is...D2/D3 added interest and variables that made the NCAA's even more interesting. Article written for last months AWN.... My, How Things Have Changed My how things have changed! My time frame reference is 1968-1984, which I believe was the Golden Era of wrestling. That’s when college wrestling was the most healthy, robust, and deep. There were lots of opportunities to wrestle collegiately, more intangibles, and rules that apparently offered more pinning opportunities. That 16 year time span averaged 63 falls/13 OT’s per tourney vs 32 falls/26 OT’s per tourney for the last 16 years on the championship side of the bracket. My, how things have changed. There were no tech falls, no video reviews, no bricks, no grad school competitors, no 7th year seniors, no Olympic redshirts, no transferring without penalty, no choice to avoid mat wrestling, no “cheap tilts,” no touch falls, individual dual matches could end in a draw, and for years you could only wrestle back if you lost to a semifinalist or finalist. Matches were 2-3-3 vs the present 3-2-2. Overtime was 1-1-1. Here is a very small sampling of the scores from that period. Cleo McGlory (U of Okla) 21-4 in ’68, Steve Dildine (Alabama) 27-3 in ‘70, Don Rohn (Clarion) 26-6 in ’73, Gary Breece (U of Okla) 24-2 in 74, Nabil Guketlov (Montclair St.) 26-9 in ‘75, Mark Churella (Mich) 34-4 in ’77, Shawn Whitcomb (Mich St.) 30-7 in ’79, Charlie Heard (Univ Tenn-Chatt) 32-12 in ‘83, Joe Gibbons (Iowa St) 32-0 and Melvin Douglas (Univ of Okla) 35-5 in ’84. That’s a lot of wrestling, fans loved it, and those guys refused to be pinned! Why are those kinds of scores are no longer allowed? My, how things have changed. The top 2 finishers, plus 2 wild cards in D2 and the D3 NCAA Championships (college division prior to ’74) were invited to compete in the D1 NCAA until ’92, and it made a difference. Consider this abbreviated list of D2/D3 wrestlers who stood at the top of podium in d1: Rich Sanders (Portland St.), Stan Dziedzic (Slippery Rock), Wade Schalles (Clarion), Joe Gonzales (CSU-Bakersfield) Carlton Haselrig (Pitt-Johnstown 3x D2/D1 NCAA Champ) and D3 NCAA Champ Ken Mallory (Montclair St.). The powers that be fixed that in 1992. Go away, you have your own tournament! How different would the individual D1 results or the team scores have been, post ’92, if undefeated (131-0) 4x D2 NCAA champion Joey Davis (Notre Dame (OH), or any of the other 3x D2/D3 champions and the wild cards competed? Freshman and multiple time NCAA champions are not unique in a field of 78 or so. There were four freshman champs from ’68 to ’84 (approximately 350 schools), 13 in the last 16 years (approximately 77 schools), and 21 total since ’85. In ’78 they awarded 6 AA’s (1.65%) from a total field of 363. Now they award 8 AA’s (10.39%) from a total field of 77. Perhaps limit AA to top 6 or even top 3 or 4. Though largely no fault of their own, the estimated number of college wrestling programs at all collegiate levels has dwindled from 777 in 1972 to 273 total programs in 2025. Restricting the NCAA to only D1 since ‘92, along with the progressive rules changes, has diminished the sport. Wouldn’t allowing D2/D3, Junior College, and even NAIA into D1 add more suspense, depth, breadth, excitement, interest, and viewership and unite the entire wrestling community? There are some positive changes in the current rules. Riding time in OT has value and eliminates supposed unbiased officials from deciding victors via Referees Decision. Another positive change is the Double Elimination bracket. This type of consolation wrestle-back offers a truer outcome for those wrestlers eliminated in the championship bracket, and every single competitor other than the finalists receive a chance to come back and place. And probably the biggest bright spot today is that NCAA wrestling is televised on BTN, ESPN and other conference networks instead of only ABC Wide World of Sports as a 10 minute, once-a-year, heavily edited, side note. That has added to the amount of money wrestlers now command in college, and how nice to see a financial reward FINALLY for so much hard work in a sport that has few equals as far as physical challenges and the amount of work it takes to be an NCAA champion. My how things have changed.

They got you guys at 12, getting close..

Which is a ridiculous understatement of the garbage pile that Reddit has become. It's not about an occasional 'slip through' - it's that it has become a dumpster fire of consistently bad-to-horrible information. Wikipedia, on the other hand, is on a completely different level. It's never been anywhere near perfect - but wiki's will never be, by design. It's solidly useful, but as is advised on any and all internet web sites, be cautious and think carefully before blindly believing what you read. Much of it is wrong. In a nutshell, yes - all AI's are trained on internet data. And are therefore exposed to much garbage. Which is why filtering is an important part of the training process. And, as of right now, that filtering isn't terribly good either. AI is still a work in progress that is consistently making giant strides. Where we land with AI in a year or so, it's anybody's guess.

On the contrary, it doesn't take much for you to post that I'm somehow angered. When I'm nowhere near close. It's like others have said. You really do live in a weird world of your own making. If that works for you - cool. But you might want to consider reality as another option. Maybe give it a try.

Trump is fixing it? How can you be confident of that. Kind of like he'd end the Russia Ukraine war on his 1st day? OK. You keep believing that. If you've got faith, that's just what you got. From where I sit, Trump hasn't fixed anything. All we hear is lies that he's done any of the sort. Ukraine war is in a very bad spot, Gaza war is no better, inflation in the US is off the hook bad and looks to be getting worse, the tariffs are a miserably bad experiment, and the middle east is a much bigger fire than ever now that Trump sent US Air Force bombers to "obliterate" Iran's nuclear capability (even though, after all Trump's lies, it only mildly affected their progress.) You keep thinking Trump is fixing it, and you keep believing in the Easter Bunny.

good info - thanks CC
