  1. Normalized behavior. Let's talk about that concept for a second. It appears that the reason Biden found this necessary is because of Trump's ability to normalize behavior that had been considered outrageous and disqualifying in the past. Trump has proven that you can do and say the most outrageous things and people will still vote for you. You can brag about grabbing genitalia or standing in the middle of Fifth Avenue to shoot someone, and it will not matter. You can talk about using the power of the Presidency to seek revenge and people will shrug it off. The list of examples could go on for some time, but I have things I need to get done today. Maybe there is a tik tok video where the Chinese government explains it all.
  2. And yet they do not play for me. Instead it sends me to the app store to get the app.
  3. It is possible to deserve it more while still not deserving it at all. The ORS should not be a lifetime achievement award. I, too, am in the camp that does not care for the Olympic redshirt for someone who did not attempt to qualify for the Olympics. There should be a trials attendance requirement with an appeals process to allow for injured athletes. That said, nothing will change because the NCAA has lost interest in applying existing eligibility rules, nevermind creating new ones, due to their losing streak in court.
  4. Not in IT. It works in your browser because you have the app. Without the app the Chinese government is not able to gather the info on you that they want, so to view, even in a browser, they push you to first download the app. Say hello to Xi Jinping for me.
  5. You need the app
  6. And how will the haters see that tik tok video if they don't have tik tok?
  7. Did it ever occur to you that the haters don't have tik tok?
  8. You want me to point out where you did NOT do something? OK, everywhere. Now your turn, where did you own your errors? When you disagree with an argument you call it semantics. It is not semantics. And it is not BS. I posted a quote right out of the article that you posted explaining exactly why many democrats said they did not vote for this legislation. I do not think you know better than the reporter who spoke to the democrats. Now as for your incessant attempts at gotcha questions. I will pass. If you have something to say, just say it.
  9. I don't know. Seems like Iowa has been the second best team since 2010 (The Sanderson Era). And this is with them getting short changed on the 2020 season. The bolded number is their average finish. Iowa has averaged two places higher than Cornell. And, again, that is without averaging in a first place for 2020 when they were heavy favorites to win. Iowa's best is as good, or better, than anyone else's. And their worst is better than anyone, PSU included, during that time. Their worst finish is better than PSU's two worst finishes.
  10. Aren't they going to Rutgers?
  11. Mesenbrink has a 100% bonus rate
  12. This is what I am talking about. Your original post was about outrage. "Every single D voted against deporting illegal immigrants that have been convicted of sex crimes...seriously WTF??? How in the heck is this even a partisan issue??" And it was factually incorrect on several points. Every single D did not vote against the proposed law. No D that voted against the proposed law voted against deporting illegals that commit sex crimes, because there is already a law on the books that handles that exact situation. This was pointed out in the article that you posted and I quoted. But instead of owning your errors you want to double down. And then you, and others want to distract by pretending that the existing law is not being enforced. But, of course it is. With that out of the way, yes, I think illegals who commit sex crimes should be deported. What's more, I am very glad that there is already a law to handle that very situation. And I am grateful that the law is being enforced. No, I do not think all illegals should be deported. And if you do, then be prepared to deal with the inflation that so many here thought was such a problem before the election.
  13. Davis is the interesting ome. With his win over #7 Bailey does that put a floor of #6 on him in spite of the loss to a much lower ranked Van Dee? That is essentially what happened with Ventresca and Spratley last week at 125.
  14. Kudos to @Truzzcat for starting an interesting thread
  15. He gets a lot of stick over the Burwikk transfer, but The Athletic has a story about Wisconsin refusing to put a football players' name in the transfer portal even though he requested, and the rules say they have too. So he just withdrew from Wisconsin and enrolled at Miami. Wisconsin has not commented, but the player's lawyer, an adjunct professor of NIL at Miami's law school, has some fun quotes: "I still to this day don’t quite understand what Wisconsin believes or understands its position to be,” Heitner said. “I gathered in the process that it didn’t even seem like they were fully aware of what they were relying upon to not put the player in the portal. I don’t know what the connect or disconnect is between the school and the collective. “It seemed like there was a lot of misinformation and I’m not confident that the school and or the Big Ten appreciates the myriad holes in the agreement that was executed, which we don’t believe is valid or binding.” Heitner said Lucas signed a memorandum of understanding with Wisconsin contingent on approval of the House vs. NCAA settlement, which has yet to receive final approval, as well as him attending classes there no later than spring 2025. He also noted Wisconsin had not paid Lucas any money so Lucas did not owe the school any reimbursement." And: “I would have never expected Wisconsin to maintain its completely irresponsible position throughout,” Heitner said. “So in a normal circumstance I would say I’m convinced that they understand the worst possible thing that they could do for their reputation would be to try to escalate this. But they haven’t used logic from the start, so I don’t know what they will do.”
  16. I know you want the last word, so you can have it in 1 second. Upon further review you can have it in 4 seconds.
  17. I had it 3-2 to PSU but had the wrong 2
  18. On the live broadcast they showed the replay in slow mo with the clock included, oh thin-skinned one. What other complaints you got?
