  1. Thinking about the absolute pistol whipping Nick Lee, Zain Retherford or Jason Nolf would put on him actually made me laugh. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  2. They wrestle a local-ish non-conference team as the last dual every year. Is this some sort of knock on PSU? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  3. Just like that, Ball gets decked and it’s 31-6. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  4. Helpful hint to 157s: If Haines gets the Turk and you try to use your other leg to bridge, he’s going to try to make your head and foot touch each other. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  5. Ball is going at 184. Feldkamp is a top 15 guy. Should be a good match. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  6. 6-3 and 6-2. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  7. This is why I told people the Lee vs RBY match was a pipe dream. Just a bad idea for Lee. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  8. So, as opposed to learning about the motives of the bill’s author, based on his public profile, in your mind, the logical thing to do is to ignore everything he’s ever said in public, and go with an interpretation that is at odds with the bill’s author’s known beliefs? Really? PS, I have an MS in Remote Sensing. An R1 institution deemed me sufficiently science-minded to award it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  9. It’s not an assumption that the author of the bill in MN wants to promote religion as fact. He says it in the bill, verbatim. It’s patently unconstitutional and also, if one has real faith, counter-intuitive to the actual practice of faith. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  10. So, is this a round about way of saying that you support such a bill? Teaching religion as “facts” in every public school? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  11. I’m not a journalist, and I don’t know that the blogger on SubStack claims to be one, either. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  12. They provide significant background on the author of the bill. Unless Christian Nationalist right-wingers have suddenly taken to espousing Buddhism, Hinduism, Judaism or Islam, I have to assume that he meant to have HIS faith forced upon students. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  13. Is the cut getting to Swiderski? Doesn't look nearly as good as he did early in the year. RS next year, or bump him to 149 and Paniro to 157?
  14. I’m very surprised it was that low. Also, Askren mentioned that Keegan might go up to 174 next year. Great idea if he wants to finish 3rd, I guess. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  15. Only where deserved. You didn’t deserve my response. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  16. Brakes generate heat which cause bearings to fail. Surely you know this, as a man with many certifications. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  17. @BobDole, given that you and I served in the same unit, could you do an old 10th Mountain man a solid and edit my response, and that of @LJB, to erase my quote of his statement? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  18. You clearly didn’t. “A rule was passed under President Barack Obama that made it a requirement for trains carrying hazardous flammable materials to have ECP brakes, but this was rescinded in 2017 by the Trump administration. The industry said it would cost more than $3 billion to implement. The FRA under Obama said it would be around half a billion. The National Transportation Safety Board, a federal agency responsible for investigating rail accidents, told The Lever that the Ohio train that derailed was not fitted with ECP brakes. Would ECP brakes have reduced the severity of this accident? Yes," Ditmeyer said. Referring to opposition from within the rail industry to fitting ECP brakes, he added: "The railroads will test new features. But once they are told they have to do it ... they don't want to spend the money." Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  19. A brake inspection? No. It was a rule/regulation that required trains that carried certain classes of toxic substances to have upgraded brakes. The Trump administration rescinded that rule. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  20. My apologies for taking it the wrong way. I’ve seen some terrible things posted about him and didn’t even think about the tournament. So, again, sorry for my overreaction. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  21. What is wrong with you? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  22. You understand that the suspected cause of the derailment is a failed bearing, which likely wouldn’t have happened if the Obama-era regulations governing improved brakes hadn’t been stripped by the Trump administration, right? https://www.newsweek.com/donald-trump-blame-ohio-train-derailment-1781163?amp=1 Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  23. Ohio got the safety regulations they voted for, it seems. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  24. Also, Nordstream 2 was full of...wait for it...air, at the time of the explosion. I'm not sure how compressed air being evacuated from a compromised pipe is an environmental disaster, but, you do you, killer.
  25. I had no clue that Hersh was Jewish. His conspiracy theories on OBL are a bit much for me. Putting it lightly. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
