"Forbidden terms" is so straight out of a communist country like Russia, NK, or China that I find it difficult to wrap my head around the fact that it is in the US and coming from the Trump administration. I have visions of black vans driving around picking offenders up in the middle of the night, never to be seen again. That is routinely done in the aforementioned communist countries. Which is even more crazy because ICE already does exactly that in the US - without legitimate due process, and with little pushback from citizens. We're coming up on Super Bowl LIX soon - we'll have maybe a couple hundred million tuning in and watching. But the purposeful erosion of freedom in America? All we'll hear is crickets.

Perhaps some posters here have been indulging in the top shelf spirits more tonight than usual. (As opposed to the lower shelf stuff some of the NWT folks tend to imbibe on a more regular basis.) Doesn't really matter. We came together to have a good time. To quibble, to squawk, to piss, and to moan. IMO, there isn't much more we can ask for than that. It's been a good night of wrestling.

Cute post. You're welcome.

Why would I care to do that when it has nothing to do with my point? Pick a fight with someone who actually cares about what you are trying to say. Because I don't. Use your head for something other than to keep your ears apart.

Let's be honest - neither Angelo or Carter was showcasing high level offensive prowess. My point was that, following this match, Ferrari's increased confidence level may well impact his future matches in a significant way. That was about the most positive take I had at the end of that match.

Confidence is such a crucial element of wrestling. I imagine Ferrari's confidence just jumped about a mile. Which, IMO, means he just became that much more dangerous.

So - tomorrow. When you've calmed down. Let's discuss more about how you feel about my 'history' and whatever else you have on your mind. We're all here for the discussion. Literally nothing else to do. So let's make the most of it.

He's the wrestler we didn't think we wanted to watch - who we won't want to miss the rest of the season. Seems there's one every year.

Let's just say this - your attempt to play a race card is directed at the wrong guy. You seem to be in an overly emotional state - let's take this up again tomorrow if you're still fired up.

With 30 seconds left in the 3rd period, both obviously tired, Buchanan showed some explosive speed to clinch the match. Barr had nothing to match it. My observation stands.

If that was an attempt at humor, it wasn't funny.

Buchanan has got some quickness... nice

Seems like a strange thing to say, but I like the way this match is unfolding

It's a more than expected thrashing, maybe thrashing x3. But the good news is we've got 2 must watch matches coming up next.

What 'sex offender'!? The guy on the Dr. Phil video said he wasn't. All your puffery BS about a video that doesn't even back your BS. Be careful where you put your flute next time you're at band camp.

OK, fine. How about I sell you this instead... $500, and that's a good deal.

I see you're a man of high intelligence who likes parties. For you, today, I can sell you this for $500... but act fast. I've got other offers...

Your dogecoin is no good here. That garbage isn't real money. What are you, some kind of swindler?

Don't forget - Little isn't going anywhere. He'll likely be an even bigger challenge than last time. There is no doubt that this weight class will be one to watch.

Done deal. Description: 1 gallon of water from under the Brooklyn Bridge. Price: $5,500. All sales are final. It seems that most of you lack critical thinking skills.

Nobody is suggesting we only talk about things that already happened. It's just that it's one thing to predict or even bet on what you think will happen. That's interesting. It's an entirely different thing to claim to actually know what the future holds without any doubt. That's pathetic.

1, 2, and 3 have all been going on for many decades. We could point fingers at Reagan, Bush, Clinton, GW, Obama, Trump, Biden, etc. Which would all be useless. Let's maybe grow a pair and stop trying to blame an ex-president or a particular party. That solves nothing. A lot of money has recently been thrown at #1 - we'll have to wait to see any evidence of that working. It'll take time. Note that this effort has been non-partisan. It's a problem so we might as well get all hands on deck rather than point fingers. Nothing I'd like more than to see more progress here. #2 - Results from controlled entry to the country as well as uncontrolled entry through the southern border, the northern border, the Atlantic, the Pacific, and the air. To borrow a hockey term, the US is simply a sieve to drug smuggling. Any notion that it is somehow all from Mexico is BS being pushed by politicians with their own agenda. #3 - Contrary to what politicians have been saying, this is primarily a problem within the US. People will always be able to cross the border legally with assistance from traffickers. The problem really explodes once they are here and are being exploited. This is where we really need to rely on traditional law enforcement. ICE agents running around like cowboys in the wild west doesn't help anyone here. Allowing them to enter churches and schools is just more BS that helps nothing. It can be all about politics or it can be all about getting the job done. Can't be both.

I've got the answer. The historical trend is simply that once prices go up, they don't come back down. What you can do, at best, is to minimize the increase in prices by conserving. It's not much. Anyone that tells you they'll fix inflation and bring prices down IS LYING TO YOU. They won't come down. If you voted for someone who promised they would fix it, you wasted your vote. Those promises are worth $0.

Just found this for sale $500... seems like something the two of you geniuses should look into.
