Complete nonsense. More bot posts. These are getting tiresome.

I don't believe you have. Thanks for your input, but I'm more interested in my conversation with mspart.

Does that question really persist? The entire U.S. Military, all branches included, knows less than you do? C'mon. These conspiracy theories are getting old and tired.

Is being over 60 your excuse for posting purposely like a 'jerk'?

I gave up on Rokfin quite a while ago. The last time I looked (which was a while ago) the only option I saw was annual - and I didn't subscribe. When I do try to check on pricing from time to time - it's not clearly available. Try it yourself - go to https://www.rokfin.com/ and see if you can find out without having to sign up and give them your info. Scroll down, as I did a minute ago, and in the 'The RAE Network' section - click 'Learn more' - you'll get a 'This page has been removed' error. Scroll to the bottom - see a 'Pricing' link? No, there isn't one. Maybe some internet gymnastics will get you there. I'm not interested in it. If you want to sell me something, give me the price up front. Otherwise, you're too shifty for my taste. Bottom line - This is a crap business model. I can't easily find pricing without giving up my information first? Absolute garbage. That's the guy at the used car lot who you walk away from. @flyingcement Thanks for the post. I didn't get that far, kicked them to the curb well before that.

Whoa, no. There'll be no photos dug up. C'mon now.

I see your point. You're right. That was my mistake. By saying - simple, obvious and something we can all support. I didn't intend to include wackos on the far left and far right. There has always been and will always be plenty of wackos out there. I don't expect that to ever change. When I refer to 'all of us', I'm not strictly referring to 100% of us. I'm not including the loonies. I'm referring to what I believe is the vast majority of the country who are thoughtful and reasonable. Those who, most importantly, are willing to listen and discuss rather than stomp, scream, and shout like children. I believe we significantly outnumber them - they just make a lot more noise.

On the contrary, "Rokfin" does. "Rokfin" increased their annual subscription fee by 50%. "Rokfin" only allows an annual subscription - not monthly - so I have to pay for 75% of the year that I don't use (which is NOT what ESPN or BTN do - although mostly what Flo does.) In addition to that, the trend was for more and more channels to require additional PPV fees for events (for this season and last, EVERYTHING wrestling-related that I was interested in on Rokfin carried a PPV fee - 100%) Although the PPV fee decision is made by channels, not Rokfin, I lumped them together for sake of simplicity and brevity. (But, yes, they are two separate layers of fees.) That combination, on this planet and in my opinion, is what I consider 'greedy.' But I see your point. Having chosen to go with non PPV - you're bucking the trend. Had I known that (rather than assuming it would be PPV based on past experience), I may have reconsidered. In any case, I like your choice, and I don't include you in the set of those I consider greedy.

I'm right there with you. I understand supporting wrestling, and paying for content, but there's a limit to what's fair. Rokfin isn't about fair, they tilt into 'greed' territory.

Dunno, probably the admins only give like 10 minutes before they are locked from further edits. (Those bastards.)

...or maybe he thought he had done enough to win and shut it down. Only to see some shock and awe in final seconds by a surprisingly very game opponent.

You've given (2) examples - let's start there: 1. Transgenderism: I have a co-worker who I worked with for over 20 years who sent out a company-wide email that he was becoming a woman and that we shouldn't be surprised when we saw him wearing dresses to work, etc. I thought his email account had been hacked and went straight to his office to deal with it. Nope - he sent it, it was real. I had absolutely no idea. During our 20+ years of working together, he was great. Kind, patient, fair, helpful, understanding, etc. More of a real cowboy than a village people one. When I think of transgender, I think of him (now her.) Some people didn't accept it well and ridiculed her behind her back - I had no time for that. She is a good person and didn't deserve that. I wouldn't tolerate it because I thought she had the right to make choices and be who she felt she was. I support her 100%. NOW... all that being said, personally I did think it was a little nutty. And it did creep me out, and it still does at some level. But I have to balance my thoughts on who "I am" vs who "she is." I would never make that choice, but at the same time I can support her making that choice. We're all so very different, this just happens to be one of the more extreme examples. I am strongly opposed to anybody who is anti-transgender. Children? No - I don't think children are equipped to make that choice and shouldn't be allowed to. They can dress and act like their gender of choice, just as any child has always been able to do. And only when they turn 18, as adults, they then have the ability to make their permanent choices. This seems simple, obvious and something we can all support. The problem here is that the far-left distracts us with nonsense, and the far-right distracts us with equal and opposing nonsense, and we get fired up over very little. Most moderates on both sides are in the same camp. Hostile forces: I think most of us are in alignment when it comes to anyone attacking us. That won't be tolerated. But there is that gray area between threats (constantly coming from North Korea, Iran, etc.) and actual hostility. Can't nuke NK because that bozo likes to constantly threaten us with nukes. That would be a bad move. Also, things like "weather balloon" that blew off course - maybe that's true? maybe that's a lie? Dunno. Nobody here knows. Bold moves and conservative moves are both available, but let's not make it something more than it is until we know. If it's hostile, it is simple, obvious, and something we can all support. Seems to me we can find common ground. It's the garbage politicians we've voted for who can't seem to make that a priority for them. And those are the ones who's job it is to represent us (instead of representing themselves and their bank accounts.)

Still struggling - Brayton is having a tough year. None of them are easy, but this one is a bit more tough. Not easy for any of these guys. He'll be fine come B1G's

Nah, he's fine. GTG.

Foy knocks out Warner at the buzzer. Nice. Joles goes on to beat the Iowa backup.

Holy smokes

Don't be dumb. I'm not even wearing a hat.

You may be right, I probably don't 'sont' you. But thanks for that post with real substance (maybe sarcasm.) Nicely done. (Or is that sarcasm?)

Here's your post: Ummm.. sounds like you were thanking me for my insight? right? That's how I took it. If not - then maybe it was a "nothing of a post" by you. You decide and let us know - that would be good substance.

Maybe true - but I was kind of hoping for a friendly wager with you.

You are welcome. Thanks for being a fan.

Oh... yes, I'm thinking I want wager here.

What part of my post wasn't 'easy' enough for you?

Sure. And, don't forget NCAA's... if the discussion is about vulnerability - it certainly includes the big show, too. Like I said, quite a bit of season left.

Quite a bit of season left... we'll see how it shakes out.
