Sorsby declared for the supplemental NFL draft ending the circus for CFB at least. Curious if anyone will take the chance.

I'm not. Any violence is bad. I just ask if you are aware of the incentives of the people you're constantly sharing stuff from here? Does it concern you that they stand to gain monetarily by keeping you in a constant state of agitation?

Yes, I know what your algorithm shows you, mostly because you force feed it on to this forum.

It's funny the bubbles social media can put you in. There is Caveira's algorithm meanwhile a friend on Instagram was resharing videos of Knicks fans still out when the trash pickup was going on helping the trashman throw trash in the truck.

It was gobbeldy gook as far as I'm concerned. Basically he admitted he has a problem and you promised to help people with problems, which somehow means he can't face any repercussions.

Now the Big 12 wants a declaratory judgment that it can enforce its own bylaws separate from the NCAA, and that Paxton can't punish them for doing so. https://www.kcbd.com/2026/06/15/big-12-conference-files-federal-complaint-against-texas-tech-attorney-general-ken-paxton/

A tale of two chatbots, this is Claude, although granted I did substitute "person" for "baby" since that seemed like it would be prejudicial for the answer.

Let me direct you to my previous statement on what Pritzker said when you asked:

It isn't? If I implied that it was, I'm sorry for not being clear. I'm not trying to blame anyone but rather explain a policy position I believe in.

I think your premise is false. Stadium projects never deliver the economic benefits promised. I think they would have to raise taxes to compensate for what they would have to give to the Bears regardless. Maybe they should have done more to attempt to keep The Bears, but not for economic reasons because I believe the promises of economic benefits are lies. I am open to anything you can provide that says that any stadium project has delivered on the economic gains, but I think especially Football stadiums are fool's gold.

Stipulated he was wrong to do it in the first place. I'd just like you to come off it because it's 8 years ago and not incredibly relevant as far as I can tell. Do you think the tax breaks or building stadiums ever make the returns promised when they are asked for? If so, do you have any studies that back that up.

I'd add probably a substantial portion of this money isn't making it to any homeless person in the form of any kind of direct aid, but is eaten up by staff at NGOs.

I think he's just the first one to take it outside of the NCAA process to the courts. I'm not sure when the last time is the NCAA won anything in the courts.

It is shocking to me that now seemingly the NCAA can't even enforce rules against betting on your own team. And now Ken Paxton has threatened to sue anyone who dares to do anything about it.

Things have been good for so long based on systems set up so long ago, people have forgotten the reasons they exist. So they can't imagine the world that isn't undergirded by liberal democratic capitalism. It's why whenever they do the "what would your job be on the commune" engagement bait, it's always "poet" and never "garbageman." Everything that works about society is invisible to them, and they think it always will because they have no frame of reference for it not working.

I do not understand going to the mattresses like this to keep Susan Collins of all Republicans out of office. If this was actually Ken Paxton vs Graham Platner as so many people want to make it I would get it.

They didn't. It's nonsense from a politician who doesn't want to accept blame for upsetting voters.

Cool. Nothing to do with what I said, as is your wont, but cool.

And nothing. My take is cities and states should not bend over for these teams, but 1) I don't particularly care for any pro sports and 2) I'm not a politician who will have to go before voters who do care about pro sports and explain why I let a team leave over a few billion in incentives.

Stadium projects never return the claimed monetary benefits to taxpayers. There may be non-monetary reasons to give teams what they want, but economic reasons don't stand up to scrutiny.

I went to the 1995 World Championships in Atlanta. I'll never forget how loudly the Iranian fans would cheer for Dave Schultz, and how much they hated the Brands brothers.

Bullet Tooth Tony: A bookie's got blagged last night. Avi: Blagged? Speak English to me, Tony. I thought this country spawned the f***ing language, and so far nobody seems to speak it.

My basic take is that a lot of things attributed to race can be attributed to class. If you present as high class you can get away with a lot more than if you don't. I'm reminded of the scene in Mad Men where Don is smoking weed with hippies and when he goes to leave they say he can't leave there are cops in the hall who will hassle him, and he says no you can't leave.
