  1. Why wouldn't he?
  2. Wait, what?
  3. Holy stalling! Headgear messing about just to kill time and recharge Cass's batteries. That was BS.
  4. A year is a LONG time when you follow what is trendy as a kid. "So last year."
  5. Why the porn stache for the Mich guy... is that how you want to get your azz whupped? Just dumb.
  6. He's not the strongest P4P ever at 125 either, that title belongs to Anthony Robles. To be fair, zLee's chicken legs are inching him closer to Robles.
  7. Zero-knee Lee (aka zLee) is starting to look like he can wrestle all three periods. Significant progress since his 1st match. I like zLee's chances. Still an uphill battle, but I don't doubt he can do it. He's a beast. But "Zero chance he loses" seems a little too optimistic.
  8. Odd thing is that Sparks has been dialing the crazy down, while Ray is at 11 and squeezing the knob to get it higher.
  9. FFT by tOSU at Hwt ... so that we don't miss any of Spencer Lee. Nicely done.
  10. Who decides what is "fake science"? And who decides what is "fake news"? IMO, these (2) questions deserve more focus and thought by everyday people than they are getting. Fake media = Some try extremely hard to remain fair and unbiased, others are ridiculously biased on purpose, many more are somewhere in between. It's getting very difficult for all of us to sort it out and decide who is trustworthy vs who isn't. The integrity of the "news" as a credible source of information is a luxury we no longer have. Science = Since Covid, due in large part to the above 'media' point, we have entered a strange and dark period in our history where science is no longer trusted. Any Tom, Dick, or Mary on the internet can now question decades of scientific theory as if they have some higher knowledge. Neither of these things is a specific to the U.S. - the same things are causing unrest around the world. Who's behind it? A bunch of people who want to see the world burn is my best guess - too many of those. Certainly nobody that intends to make the world a better place is behind it - those are the people we need more of.
  11. But he didn't. Trump didn't create any positive economic change at all. He mostly watched TV, tweeted about it, and focused on his rallies. He signed whatever the Senate put in front of him like a trained monkey. He created almost nothing. What he did create was the failed "build wall/walls work" policy, and various ways to charge the taxpayers like us for government activity in his hotels and golf courses. LIke any experienced grifter, he claimed credit for whatever good was happening, and denied responsibility for whatever bad was happening. As far as personal attacks? Not going there. Both Biden and Trump have more than enough personal faults. Not lowering the conversation to that level. I'm more interested in the role they have both been elected to perform. This is just what it was. If you missed any of this, you weren't paying attention. That's understandable, we are all busy and few of us work in DC. But that doesn't change the lack of leadership that it was.
  12. Using a trusty dictionary... Pseudo = not genuine; spurious or sham Science = the intellectual and practical activity encompassing the systematic study of the structure and behaviour of the physical and natural world through observation and experiment Put them together, and we're most of the way there. "Pseudoscience" is neither a buzz word, nor is it trite - it refers to "not genuine science" aka fake science. One may wonder why anyone would possibly want to promote fake science. Cult leaders, grifters, con artists, and orange ex-presidents - to name a few. They are out there.
  13. This would explain why Trump famously refused to read the Presidential daily intelligence briefings. He rejected one of the key functions of his leadership role, instead passing off intelligence issues to the Senate to deal with. Instead, he chose to watch morning TV and tweet about it. Then roll into the Oval Office around noon. Thank God those days are over. Anybody trying to still defend Trump should just get over it. He was the most incompetent president we've ever had.
  14. I recently did a firmware upgrade for an HP LaserJet that was crying about using a non-HP toner cartridge. That quieted it right down. Works fine with 3rd party cartridges with no complaining now. Worth looking into to.
  15. Read through these last posts carefully, and no. There doesn't appear to be much of a good reason posted here so far. All things considered, matching college weights with freestyle weights would seem to be a wise approach.
  16. Agreed. I lived through them. Watched some of the matches many times. I just didn't memorize the stats. I've read your posts for many years. I trust that you posted them diligently. I see no need to verify them.
  17. Yes, yes, most of us here have been over this in countless arguments for many years. Undefeated is a key piece of the award, as is pinning. I know you've been around for all these continual arguments. What's your point here? You seem to have an axe to grind.
  18. I didn't look it up, but likely true.
  19. Let's be honest. Ness barely won the title... about as close as it gets. A second or so and it goes the other way and he doesn't win the Hodge. Really great job by Jayson that year. Throw selective memory aside. This year, it'll be a dogfight as it has always been.
  20. I can absolutely agree with that, 100% in agreement - and the 2nd biggest need is maybe to change your profile pic.
  21. "Kentucky Chiefs"... REALLY?
  22. It is basically the same as it always has been. It really is.
  23. No, nobody is considering informing Trump of anything. He's a has-been pudgy orange moron that is completely irrelevant when it comes to the current and future political landscape. Hope that wasn't too direct.
