re: Schumer was on the view, it seems

Obama made this line of thinking okay to openly say.


Obama actually said that paying taxes was “patriotic”. Too bad that not having a clue about the purpose of The Boston Tea Party doesn’t preclude one from becoming POTUS. .

Again, y'all are starting from a false premise that you know how life is created. Please explain how life is created if that is your stance.


I made no such assertion. All I did was state the unviversally accepted, estimated size of the universe and ask you a question. You chose to respond with an irrelevant question.

Your premise isn't scientific in any way. You are creating a hypothesis with no way of falsifying it. We don't know what creates life. If it exists everywhere in the universe, why don't we see life all over the place?


Earth is one of 8 planets in our solar system. They revolve around a star called the Sun. There are 400 millions stars and 100 billion planets in the Milky Way - a galaxy. There are estimated to be 2 trillion galaxies. Do you honestly believe that Earth is the only place in the universe where life exists?

Not only that, Musk founded Neuralink - a company whose mission is to improve the lives of people with traumatic brain injuries by implanting a chip in their brains - people like his wife, former Congresswoman Gabby Gifford who was shot in the head in 2011.

Would've been nice to have him back but it seems pretty clear he knew he wouldn't be a SP in the weekend rotation.


If Jay doesn't get a strong sign that Herring will sign last summer, he may have held off on signing Eyanson. I thought Herring should have been a weekend starter last year. Jay showed too much patience with Hurd's inconsistency. I think Herring will have a good pro career.

We survived before when barely anyone was paying income taxes.


More than 100 years ago before 2 world wars. Ever since then, the federal government has been the proverbial idiot that buys a house with no money down and a balloon mortgage that refinances every year with another balloon mortgage. Pulling out of NATO, collecting foreign debt and tariffs isn’t going to make the slightest dent in a $37 trillion debt accumulated over 250 years.

I'm an independent insurance adjuster. It seemes like that whenever I handled a claim in Miami Beach wearing an LSU polo, some octogenarian would walk up to me and tell me how he grew up with Skip.
quote:

I am rooting for him. At worst, he is an out of his depth coaching


I can’t fathom him being out of his depth coaching. However, I can see somebody with his grit, value and work ethic getting real frustrated having to deal with this entitled generation of student athletes. That shite was too much for Saban to deal with.
quote:

We all love Kyle but he has zero skins on the wall coaching wise


Before he arrived at LSU, Joe Brady had 6 years experience with this only experience being a position coach was the 2 years he coached linebackers at William and Mary. He wasn't even a position coach or coordinator here but after 2019, LSU fans were trying to figure out how to make him the head coach in waiting. Kyle played 13 seasons in the NFL for ONE franchise. Give me a guy that played the game at a high level and values loyalty every time.

Swinging away is probably slightly more risky but the reward is much greater than giving up an out in that situation.


Going for it on 4th and 2 at the opponent’s 20 yard line with a 13 point lead and 10 minutes left in the 4th quarter has a chance of high reward too. But if you’ve had trouble moving the ball all game and your defense is playing well, you take the 3 points and force your opponent to score 3 times in the final 10 minutes to beat you.

This is the issue. You guys are in here just trying to score A run. ONE run. Les and the rest of us are trying to score runS, plural. Outs are precious. You don’t give the other team any free ones when you don’t have to.


In a game where teams were given a combined 54 outs and only 6 total runs were scored, which was more precious - a run or an out?

There are multiple ways a runner gets to 3rd without bunting


Which ways have a higher probability of succeeding and which the hitting team also has control of the situation? Statistically, you have a better chance of scoring a run with 1 out and a runner on 3rd than you do with a runner on 2nd with nobody out. And there are many more ways to score from 3rd base and 1 out than there are from 2nd base and no outs.

So he can't even commit to committing? A new twist on the insignificance of committing I guess. Hope you're right CC.
