  1. Brooks has SUPER long arms. He wasn’t particularly tall for 184 and will be on the shorter end for 197 but look at how easily he got to Tanner Sloan’s legs at the All-Star. Sloan looked huge compared to Brooks and the height difference didn’t help him at all. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  2. Desmond was rumored to be a strong Wisconsin lean, and now he's staying home. Things are not looking good for Bono.
  3. This is the person who also claimed he was 225 with 5% body fat. Do you think he actually lost 20lbs of muscle?
  4. He’s 4-0… Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  5. You realize that the locations of polling places is largely a decision made by the state, right? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  6. If you could guarantee that everyone that voted could have their vote counted, sure. That would require enough voting locations so that you never, ever have to wait in a line. Kind of amazing how the number of voting locations in majority-minority or high-density locations never, ever meets demand. Almost like the powers that be want to make it as hard and inconvenient as they can. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  7. His mom is French… Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  8. First, you haven’t cited a single, actual statistic or trend you’d like me to prove or disprove. Second, you haven’t provided any proof of any causation to the trend you have thus far failed to cite. So, please provide each. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  9. Wait, so, the left wingers tore them down. And the right wingers want them put back up. It seems there is some logical inconsistency here. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  10. I’m waiting for you to understand the terms correlation and causation. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  11. Remember Unite the Right? https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unite_the_Right_rally#/media/File%3ACharlottesville_'Unite_the_Right'_Rally_(35780274914)_crop.jpg Remember this guy? https://amp.cnn.com/cnn/2022/06/15/politics/kevin-hunter-seefried-confederate-flag-capitol-riot/index.html Kind of weird how all of the states with confederate memorials are deep red, eh?

  12. You’re citing a group literally founded and funded by white supremacists and eugenics promoters. This is the founder of FAIR: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Tanton Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  13. I’m in one of the most conservative cities in America. Taxes aren’t high enough. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  14. I’d say paying teachers a shit wage is a pretty clear lack of respect. An entry level teaching position at the elementary schools my kids will attend pays less than a third of the median household income in my zip code. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  15. Lack of funding from the states and federal government. See: Reagan, Ronald. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  16. High costs = lack of qualified teachers to teach them. Teachers used to be able to go to school for very little and have a well paying job when they graduated, with very little or any debt. Now, they have massive debt and are paid very little relative to the cost of living in their school district. So, no one wants to be a teacher anymore. Turnover is incredibly high, particularly among younger teachers. Turns out, crippling debt isn’t what they had in mind when they decided to become a teacher. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  17. Maybe the cost of higher education has something to do with that? The generations that had the highest rate of GI Bill usage and lowest tuition had the highest educational attainment. Shocker. Here’s an article about it from those uber-libs at AARP: https://blog.aarp.org/bulletin-today/u-s-global-education-rankings-slipping-boomers-once-held-strong-lead Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  18. You’re failing to take into account the simple fact that other countries developed their economies and governments to fund education at rates similar to ours. If other countries had remained static, we might still be at or near the top. They didn’t, so we didn’t. Combined with cultures that actually care about education, that’s a recipe for massive improvement in all sectors of academic achievement. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  19. My dad paid like $360 per semester for tuition at Penn State in the early 1970s. He literally paid for each school year (including housing) in its entirety, by working for the athletic department, at minimum wage, each summer. Also, as an Illinois graduate, that tweet pains me.

  20. “Once the gov got involved”. So, since the beginning of publicly funded education in the US? The 1700s? US attainment relative to the rest of the world has dropped because our public funding of education has actually dropped (as a percentage of GDP) while other countries outspend us and/or keep increasing their funding. Then, combined with cultures that actually value education, they magically get better results. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  21. Try reading what he wrote. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  22. You are the perfect mark. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  23. So why is it that the many, many judges appointed by Trump, including three on the SCOTUS, dismissed his allegations of voter fraud? Time and time and time again. Could it be, as in the case of Rudy Giuliani, that he simply didn’t have any proof of what he said, and just made shit up? Seriously. Have you ever considered the possibility that both of them just lied to the American public? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  24. Wyoming gets one electoral vote per ~150,000 people. The Dakotas, one per 190k and 210k. Alaska, one per 175k. In Texas or California, it’s one per 500,000+. NJ, one per 439k, PA one per 490k. Rural, low population areas are given unreasonably high representation in the electoral college. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  25. Following the lead of Alex Jones, another guy that Willie didn’t think was all that bad. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
