  1. I don't know... a lot of people are very literal about the Bible. I have an Uncle who...when I was trying to make sense of this Religion that I'd been taught all my life(I won't say indoctrinated, I would just say it's just what you did, you went to all the Lutheran stuff, it was just...something you had to do). But I was asking 'Ok, but you don't really believe someone lived for 3 days inside a Whale, right?" And he said "yup." And then I'd asked, 'ok, how about the part where you can sell your daughter into slavery if they disobey you,' and he started to justify slavery in certain situations ...and I just tapped out. I said I can wrap my head around these having messages and...all that, but if you mean all this is 100% literal, I think that's just too hard for me. But...that's what he...and many others believed.
  2. I just think it's a poor decision...in most cases. In Wrestling, I think it's probably about as good of an area to be conservative and promote that than anywhere else. The sport absolutely skews to the right towards conservative Christian values. So looking at endorsement deals, I get it. I've worked in sales and now own a small business and there's absolutely no reason for me to put my name and political or religious views points out there for public consumption. The old Jordan, "Republicans buy sneakers too," comment. I mean... Jordan's opinions reached a billion people, maybe more. Mine reach...like 12, but still, seems like an overall good philosophy.
  3. Well...he's only got the one kidney left. If my kid needs one, he's pretty much screwed at this point.
  4. 1-No, he doesn't. He's experienced zero NCAA Wrestling yet. In fact, has he EVER Wrestled ANY Folkstyle match? It's kinda amazing you think these kids coming out of HS are struggling because of the Physical Maturity rather than the adjustment to a different level of Wrestling, but you think it's going to be EASIER for a guy who has NEVER done it to be able to get out on bottom? Marcus Blaze, Jax Forrest-Not as physical, 3-4 years younger than the guys they'll be Wrestling. I promise they'll have less trouble on bottom than a guy who has never done it before. ....no. Because I don't think he'll TAKE the bottom position. If you want to account for that, then absolutely I'd bet you. He takes bottom vs Crookham, he's wearing a saddle. Though I assume he won't be stupid enough to.
  5. I call a Freshmen finishing each match with a TD over a defending Champ...both NCAA and World....to be soundly beating him. And he gave up the 1st TD. So Crookham came from down 3-1 and won 10-5. That's...really controlling most of that match. I also never said Vito didn't end up winning it, I pointed out that as a Freshmen...Crookham beat Vito twice. That's it.
  6. They get ridden because they're not used to that level of Wrestling... but at least they have SOME exposure to it. They don't get ridden just because someone is 4 years older. As for his gut...yeah, that's gonna be a bit of a problem in Folkstyle for pretty obvious reasons. He's also Wrestling people who aren't trying to get away in Freestyle. So that's an enormous difference.
  7. KId, you replied 5 straight times! LOL...I'm just pointing out how you're so clearly lying. Ok, so after quoting me 4 times in a row, you come back with this? Jesus Christ...it's like you really do have some disability where you're unable to follow rationale thought. With your Cocker Spaniel like attention span, did you somehow miss Trump paused his MORONIC tariffs for 90 days? Then he started to go to different Countries and take credit for things that had...absolutely nothing to do with him like he just did in Qatar? His tariffs lasted less than 2.5 full trading days and we saw historic losses in the market over that time frame. So...yeah, I think it was playing out...pretty similar to the last time and even you...I'd have thought, would have known he STOPPED doing the thing I said caused the last Great Depression...and would have caused another. Did you see how much the GDP grew last quarter though Jimmy!
  8. Jimmy... ya said he didn't deny it. You're a moron. HE DID. How am I the one who looks stupid there? The oversight committee investigated this for 2 years. So...no, I responded to the right moron in THIS case as per usual, you're the one who posts 2-3 times at ones despite being the most ignorant. I rest my case. Also...your obsession with homosexual references on here is probably more about you than anyone else. You repressing something there...lil Jimmy? I mean, we're talking about a guy who... in your smooth brain version of events, never says, "I didn't sleep with her," which was never even alleged, but you still come up with "swallowell?" Sophomoric humor? Certainly possible given your level of intellect, but I also think it's covering up clear repressed homosexual desires. LOL...Little Jimmy, the G part of the LGT group...makes exponentially more sense now!
  9. Then there are posters who are just the Jesters and don't really care. That's Jimmy. He's the kid in 2nd grade that was so hyper, he annoyed OTHER 2nd graders. He's never really learned, never calmed TF down, doesn't have anything to add...ever, but has to add it.
  10. Yeah, the 'why doesn't Warren Buffett just pay more if he wants to,' is...yet another intellectually dishonest argument. The people talking about how much they care about the future of this Country are just...so clearly frauds. At what point do we care about the debt? When it's 2X the GDP(which contracted last quarter, Trump's first)? 3X? It used to be the debt shouldn't exceed 25%, then 50%, then 75%...now the total debt of the United States and it's people is 700% of the GDP. That's all debt held by the United States. I think our debt to GDP ratio...well, before the last GDP reading was in the 140% range while China was in the 80s. Big difference; China is at least building...MASSIVE infrastructure projects. We're just...giving it back to the uber wealthy. And I'm at the point where...I'm starting to not care. Cutting the corporate tax rate is going to really help the market and I've got enough in the market that I'll be fine, my kids will be fine and...I guess I'll stop worring about the rest. I will note, I did give a couple stock tips. QBTS, AVGO and...the obvious, NVDA. That was following Trump's moronic tax. QBTS is up to ~17 a share from 6 a share(and .76 cents a share just a year ago). AVGO up from ~145 to ~230 and NVDA from 87 back to 135...though most people FOMO'd into that one already.
  11. It's...so clear you don't know what you're talking about and you didn't actually watch the video. She WAS arrested, that's covered seconds into that video... You didn't...someone ELSE did and even then, you got literally every fact you cited here wrong other than she did have her hands behind her back as she was walking for a few steps. 1-3 years ago. So "it's recent" is...not accurate. 2-Again, seconds into the video they even reiterate she was arrested, so...you couldn't be bothered to watch this video(or just have a basic understanding of the topic you brought up.
  12. Ok...well...then you seem to agree with the House oversight committee. Again though, can I see your posts about all of the people who worked in the Trump administration or for the Trump Campaign who were being paid by foreign Governments and lying about it? I mean, I can't even FATHOM how outraged you are about the...well, the list I just gave you that you apparently ignored.
  13. Why don' Republicans have the balls to save our Country like they did under the likes of Eisenhower? Back when we were trying to repay the debt we'd built up after WWII and the Great Depression? Of course you can go back and look at who is responsible for adding to the debt and you find out VERY quickly the Republicans don't actually care.
  14. You know...through all the stupid things he's done, I could make a bit of a defense for him IF he was going to take the money he got from the tariffs and then...of course, stop lying about the deals he's getting done(about half the things he got done in the Middle East are...years in the works, had nothing to do with him and were negotiated under Biden and given he actually did some things, there was really had ZERO need to lie about them)...but, if he was going to take the tariffs and use that to DIRECTLY attack the deficit, they'd still be a net negative and a bad idea, but I could understand the agenda. Instead, they're going add trillions to the debt. You are getting what you voted for.
  15. Ok...so "Swallowell" is the "D sen" you were talking about? Yeah, he's not a Senator and he has denied having an affair...you moron. You never fail to expose how...comically ignorant you are. But good to know. The SENATOR you're talking about is...not a Senator at all and your entire rationale is built on something just objectively false. Very on par for Jimmy.
  16. I must not know who you're talking about in this case. Who "banged" a Chinese spy for 5 years? I assumed you were talking about Swalwell who...I don't actually think banged anyone, but clearly you're not. I can't even IMAGINE how outraged you are about the ~10 people who worked for Trump who were convicted of working for foreign Governments while advising him. That must have you OUTRAGED, right? I'm SURE I missed where you expressed your outraged over Trump's association with Manafort, Gates, Flynn, Barrack(just struck a deal with their buddies and he got back that nice plane in return)...Broidy, Bennett, Watts...(I'm sure you know the rest)... right? Because what an incredible fraud you'd be otherwise, right?
  17. REPORT IT....as Stanford JUST did. That's one way...but then you don't believe that. You have Universities studying things like defense technologies or AI, Robotics, Biological and Chemical Weapon research and you're saying they shouldn't be expected to do ANYTHING because...well gosh, it's hard. That's...insane. At the VERY least, you can communicate to students how they may be approached, what to do in the event that they are, monitor ALL access to restricted areas. But I mean, if it's too hard, then you don't get funding to study those topics. We lose some of the brightest young minds because we can't keep our sh!t together...? That a good alternative? Johns Hopkins, MIT, Harvard, they just don't study those sensitive topics any longer.
  18. Yeah...again, this is the HEIGHT of hypocrisy. Trump obtained how many patents when he was IN OFFICE? The CCP paid how much to stay in Trump Hotels? That's straight to Trump, ignoring how much his daughter got from China or how much his Son in Law Got. That "D senator," self-reported...meanwhile you had people employed by foreign states working in the US Government and they didn't self report. And we're STILL talking about his crack-head son? Only a moron would infer that China was getting some preferential treatment under Biden. Biden was at least smart enough to not go after the WHOLE WORLD, but rather continue to go after China. It was under Biden that they limited Chinese access to AI. Odd thing to do when you're working for the Chinese.
  19. Yeah, I don't particularly care to argue the merits of this one case. I'm more curious why you reflexively argued or denied it. Why your first inclination was not to believe Stanford's own reports, but to argue it as though it was a partisan issue. These universities do some VERY sensitive research. You say it's not their job to combat spying. Of course it is. You work for a defense contractor, you don't think you have security clearance and you're responsible for who is privy to the information? I'll press this just as I'll press Jimmy and Ionel(whatever) who said we had more in common with Russia over the Ukraine.
  20. Sure...and I would bet on Ono, but people are acting like he doesn't have an absolute stud in his weight. Crookham beat Vito soundly twice. Vito is a World Champ. So...sure, that'll be helpful and Ono is so good on his feet, that'll help. But it's also a huge disadvantage. I think it's easier to go from Folkstyle to Freestyle than the other way around. Edit-It will be a lot of fun to watch Blaze next year. He's a different style Wrestler than I can remember. His defense is so damn good...it's just mind blowing. 4 years in the State of Ohio and he was never taken down? Can someone verify this for me? So he didn't win the Ironman 4X, he's lost. Did he lose on ride outs or what? I get not getting taken down your last two years or whatever, especially if you're a stud, but all 4 years? I probably will pick him to win it at '41, but it'd be an upset pick.
  21. Yeah, sure. I also believe you start a sentence with a capital letter. I have lots of beliefs. I don't particularly care, but I find it FAR more likely that someone else arranged the shells and he found them. As for "without knowing what it meant," that's not what he said. He said he posted it with the understanding that 86 meant to remove and 47...well, he didn't specify that part, but I'm pretty sure he knew who it was referring to. I'd guess he wouldn't know that "86" meant to "kill" because...again, for the last 4 years while you very MAGA morons who are now outraged, you routinely posted the same thing on social media...and it's never meant to "kill." So no, he didn't say he didn't "know what it meant," he said he thought it meant the same thing it's always meant. It's MAGA who has suddenly objected to it's use and changed it's meaning. I am impressed you're able to figure out how the Caps work to emphasize a word in the middle of a sentence... now just see if you can figure out how they work at the start, that'd be a big improvement! Just a little side note.
  22. Wouldn't it be more worthwhile to let you know when this STOPS happening? In what world are you living in that you can even ask a question like this with a straight face? The CCP has the largest spy apparatus in the world, dwarfing that of the United States, the Russians...Iranians...anyone. I hear a story about China trying to spy in some manner and I think based on the...MOUNTAIN of evidence they routinely do this and I don't think, 'hmm...must be some wingers lying.' To what end? Maybe before even worrying about elections, we should first worry about the intellectual dishonesty. There's a BS fake outrage right now over "8647," where people are actually pretending that's the former FBI director calling for the President to be killed. I know it's kinda akin to screaming into the void, but if you are finding yourself defending the CCP or buying the stupidity of the other thread... you're not engaging in good faith. That's what you expect out of the...'lil Jimmy, but I'd like to think most people are capable of simple reasoning. But lets just start here. Why would you EVER doubt this? Why would you read a story and think "nope, don't believe the Chinese would do that." Just answer that question for me?
  23. Impeachment, the 25th... You really don't believe Comey was saying they should kill Trump. I don't believe YOU believe that and that's because I can't believe you're that stupid. Maybe I just don't WANT to believe that. EVEN if Comey, the lifelong Republican...who just didn't pledge his undying loyalty to Trump WANTED Trump dead, there's no chance you're stupid enough to think he'd publicly put that message out there. And I sure as hell don't believe you morons thought all the people on the right who were doing the "8646" said a word about how they're calling for Biden to be killed.
  24. I saw this...on the same Twitter thread I saw that Biden was dying from Cancer...and I couldn't tell if people were serious. The same people mocking Biden...are...SERIOUSLY trying to say "86" means to kill. 86, common slang term for anyone who's in their 30s...I'd guess 40s. Get rid of it. The amount of absolute nonsense on here is hilarious. By the way, it was Comey who tilted the election in 2016 by announcing the week of the election they were re-opening an investigation into Clinton while not announcing he was investigating Trump as well, but...he's the face of the liberal FBI(which is funny as I know multiple FBI agents who are not even remotely subtle how MAGA they are(though...one Cousin is extremely prudish...despite posting about how Ellison, a Muslim elected to office was "infiltrating" our Govt because he was Muslim but then whined about my Uncle posting a picture in which he vaguely looked like Walter White near a New Mexico sign because it "sent the wrong message.") I'll just say anyone who thinks this was about killing Trump is...shockingly stupid. Edit-It's...actually not shocking any longer.
  25. I did this as well, but I didn't finish it so my computer crashed. 125-Both the finalist are back. 133-Ono has ONE year to learn Folkstyle. He can take Crookham down 3 times, but Crookham is a MONSTER on top. If he were to not score early and choose down, he's likely getting ridden for 2 minutes AND very possibly getting turned(and maybe multiple times). 141-Mendez as you said, 2 TIME DEFENDING CHAMP, Hardy. Lots of others COULD win any of these, but just the obvious. 149-The guy who has won the title two years ago and took a 2nd last year! 157-Shapiro could certainly win that match as well as Taylor. 165-MM is the clear favorite and I'd bet the house on him, but a guy like Mantanona on his own little vision quest COULD give him some problems. But 165 is a near lock. 174-Haines wins it...BUT lets say for the sake of argument that Sinclair goes 174 next year? Sinclair is absolutely...without a doubt talented enough to beat Levi Haines. Haines is still the clear favorite, but Sinclair is built like a '74. I really believe 9 out of 10 kids his size, height, build, everything, they'd cut to 174. He doesn't cut at all and I believe could make '74 and do so while not losing any of that gas tank. Just the opposite, when he wrestled '97, he was getting worn down by Wrestling guys who were probably 20-25 pounds heavier and cutting while he was weighing in under weight. But he LIKELY won't do that. 184-There are 5 guys here who could win it. McEnelly...when would a guy who took a 5X(lets say 4X) Champ to the wire and lost in SV, then loses at the NCAA to a guy who went 3,3,2,1,2 also in SV NOT be the overwhelming favorite? Maybe in a year in which you'll have another incredible young talent in Ferrari? Or how about Ryder? I would have preferred to see Ryder stay as a fan of the sport. I don't know that they got much better. Aedon Sinclair is a darkhorse here. He's as good as anyone in that 2024 class IMO...I even went back and added him as a threat at '74. Welsh was on the easIER side of the bracket at 174 when he lost to Starocci in the finals. It's NEVER easy to get to the finals, but 3 Champs were in that bracket and he Wrestled none of them to get to the finals. 197-Of course AJ Ferrari if he can stay healthy. HWT- I think PSU should be the favorite at 133, 157, 165, 174, 197 That's pretty good. I think they CAN win at 125, 141 and 149. But this past year, they just as likely could have won at '25, '41, '49, '57, '65, '74, '84, '97 and they looked to have the biggest threat to Hendrickson. Penn State is THAT far ahead of the field(though Okie St is looking like they'll be gaining a LOT of ground in '27, '28...that doesn't mean each individual Wrestler is that far ahead of the field. 149-
