  1. Past hour
  2. https://pca.st/episode/02333986-81a9-4ee4-a220-deb400926f84 44 politically motivated deaths since 2020 by wingers. 18 by liberals. THOSE ARE THE FACTS!!!
  3. Is this really what people think? Bo has shown he is as blue chip as they come. Although a very oddly officiated match, he got a win over Beau Bartlett as a high school junior. Also got wins over Ashnault. He consistently beats Aiden Valencia. He also won a match against Luke Stanich, U20 world champion. He won U20 bronze the year prior. Melvin is definitely set to rack up a list of accomplishments this year as a high school junior. He has lost to some stud seniors throughout his sophomore year.
  4. North Korea was a surprise to me.
  5. Blades and Welker bronze. Helen gold. Women's team performance did not live up to expectations from recent years. No medals from the many first time world team members Missing some established point scorers from recent years without Adeline(Welker made up for it with Bronze), Amit(Glaude no points), Hildebrandt(Jiminez no points). Kilty with medals from 23 and 23, but didn't earn a medal this year. Jacarra no medal. She medaled in 23, so hard to say where she is in her career. She is 32.
  6. We had a lot of great performances at worlds. Which one was the most surprising and most impressive to you? Some of my top choices include 1. Real Woods taking bronze in a loaded weight. Even though he didn’t have quite as good of wins as some others, I would have never picked this result! 2. Levi beating a former world champ on his way to the finals! Didn’t know what to expect from him. Honestly was predicting DNP and never would have picked him over Usmanov but glad he proved me wrong! 3. Zahid dominating everyone including Ghasempour. I did have Zahid picked to win, but never would have guessed the margin of victory and out scoring his opponent 49-0. 4. Jax being so close to a bronze medal while still in high. Not exactly surprising but incredibly impressive. I was very impressed with his win over Suda and wouldn’t have called that one. 5. Trent coming back from 8-0 to win his world title. I thought he had a decent chance at gold, but it was a bit of a wildcard. I certainly wouldn’t have expected such an amazing comeback! 6. Helen winning another gold, pinning her way to the finals and getting a last second takedown to win the championship! I knew she was still amazing, but what a tournament for her! 6. Snyder winning another gold with Taz and Azarpira in the weight. He didn’t have to beat Taz but I didn’t have him picked to beat either one. I did figure he would be right in the mix so not quite as surprising to me. I think that’s my order. I chose Real as number 1 simply because if you would have told me these before the tournament started, it’s the one that I would say was the most unlikely. What do you all think? Any others to add?
  7. Today
  8. Said who? Wasn't Bulgaria one federation that tried to block all the transfers or even transferred athletes like Ramazanov and Novikov? -- why would they allow new transfers in their team, particularly from Dagestan?
  9. And of course ED weighed in https://edramatica.com/Charlie_Kirk
  10. UD already in on this.... https://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=Charlie Kirk&page=1
  11. If it is precedence you want, precedence you shall have. While the King's may pre-date the bowling term, the wrestling term also pre-dates the bowling term. I will not allow those dirty keglers to steal the term from it's rightful owners. Pinfall it ever was. Pinfall it shall ever be.
  12. Patient Zero here. The Oxford English Dictionary confirms that the first know use of pinfall in bowling occurred in 1908. Meanwhile the first know use in wrestling occurred 14 years prior. Pinfall it ever was. Pinfall it shall ever be.
  13. In some ways the VA was great but in a lot of ways they were just awful. They denied my mom his VA benefits on a technicality, and it was ridiculous. I remember driving him to the VA hospital a few times and they treated him pretty well. Just the admin and people who make the decisions are awful. I know my mom wanted to sue them because she had documents proving the VA knew he had cancer but did nothing. A friend of hers who was a lawyer said it would be like pissing into the wind if she tried it.
  14. Likely because we work so hard to argue against others of us who are also trying to do the right thing. We all cool. If we could only wake up and realize the only real enemies are Russia, Iran, and (very soon) China. Throw all politics aside on the world stage. We've got our hands full at this point, and unity would be a good thing.
  15. Slain right-wing influencer Charlie Kirk once used his platform to call for a “patriot” to bail out the man who broke into Speaker Emerita Nancy Pelosi’s house in San Francisco and attacked her husband with a hammer. Kirk, who was one of the loudest, most youthful voices on the MAGA far-right, made the comments on a 2022 episode of his podcast, “The Charlie Kirk Show.” In the segment, Kirk disparaged the notion that Republican rhetoric at the time was in any way responsible for the attack on Paul Pelosi. He also invoked a debunked conspiracy theory that the attack was the result of an illicit gay sexual tryst that somehow went awry.
  16. I am referring to the publication time of Benny Johnson’s podcast to Apple and the time of publication of all stories I could find reporting on an affiliate stating they were not going to air his show. Those started to appear over an hour after the podcast was published. The Hollywood Reporter article you linked to in this thread doesn’t give a relative timeline of the three events, but it does state the following ”The network’s action came just after Nexstar, one of the biggest owners of local TV stations in the country — including 28 ABC affiliates — said it will preempt the series for the immediate future. A source said that ABC had also heard from at least one other station group about the show, suggesting that an affiliate revolt may have played a role in the decision .” That seems to state pretty clearly that Nexstar’s decision preceded ABC’s decision. The article then continues “The dramatic move follows Federal Communications Commission chair Brendan Carr threatening to take action against ABC affiliates in the wake of a Kimmel comment that many took as suggesting the Kirk shooting suspect was a MAGA Republican during his Monday monologue.” That statement is a little unclear as far as setting the overall timeline. The dramatic move followed Carr’s threat but was the dramatic move the affiliate’s decision or ABC’s? If it’s Nexstar’s decision then that is the timeline I had said. If it’s ABC’s decision then it’s possible that Nexstar’s decision came before Carr’s comments. Fortunately they provide a link which takes us to an article they published earlier. In that article they describe the events as follows, “Kimmel’s comments about the Charlie Kirk shooting during Tuesday’s show drew condemnation from Federal Communications Commission chair Brendan Carr. That, in turn, prompted one group of ABC affiliates, owned by Nexstar Media Group, to declare they will not air Jimmy Kimmel Live! for the immediate future, which then led ABC to announce the show was being taken off the air ‘indefinitely.’ “ That seems pretty clear. Kimmel’s comments>Carr’s condemnation>Nexstar’s declaration>ABC’s announcement. That is the timeline I gave which you disagree with. Which article was it that you read with an alternate timeline?
  17. We have a great community
  18. There is no cap, it just has to satisfy the clearinghouse's definition of market value.
  19. 122 pages since March. Page 1...
  20. Sometimes we suck at doing the right thing.
  21. Nope. Not at all. He was a political activist. He was a very effective political activist in what is close to a 50/50 political environment. If he had been a D, and on the other side. Because of skills, he would likely have been very effective there as well. Not a champion, not an icon, and not any type of hero. But likely similarly very effective activist as a D as he was as an R. He was a skilled political activist. He was a husband and a father and had children. And he shouldn't have been killed by senseless political violence. That was a tragedy. If he is to be a symbol of limiting gun rights and gun sales in this country, in order to keep something like this terrible tragedy from happening again - and this leads to real change. Then his memory could become some type of long lasting, meaningful legacy. It is a high bar to meet, to be sure.
  22. Sorry to hear that. Most vets had a real tough time getting the proper medical they needed. Then once they finally got it, it was too late. Pretty sad the government treats the vets so poorly.
  23. Maybe it was the other guy boss.
  24. There is another school (technically 3 total but I think it's down to 2 realistically) you didn't list that he's still looking at although it does seem that Nebraska has the momentum
  25. How do you function not knowing 12 is less than 18? He was 12.
  26. That might well be a discussion topic. So weird that these clones try to cover it up instead of engaging in discussion.
