This election was a notice to Boomers....Your time is Over.

And I think it should be and will be.

I don’t know that it will matter at all in ‘28, but the Dems have done a lot gloating that I have seen. You would think black females saved the world from an extinction-level asteroid strike. Maybe that will rub some more people the wrong way.

If they wouldn’t make everything so damn racial it wouldn’t be quite so aggravating. But you know how that shite goes. Black people don’t want unity. They want racial revenge and know that voting booth is their only means to do it.

It's not about people living in poverty, it's people looking at what the other guy has and wanting that.

It’s all relative.

A typical person living an above average lifestyle 500 years ago was probably happier than someone living a below average lifestyle today - even though the latter lives an infinitely more comfortable and entertaining life.

That said, I don’t think Democrats are going to win every election until the end of time, but I do think the GOP has to adjust. They can’t be like Clemson in the NIL era. They have to play a different game whether they want to or not.

One thing I’m hoping is that the novelty of the first black this, first Muslim that, etc., will wear off in the coming years and white people (particularly white women) will start to say, “Well, shite. What about us?”

The problem with white people is enormous success had made us complacent. I live in the Atlanta metro. Black people are turning cartwheels over a black governor. Winning a governorship doesn’t excite white people when countless impactful leaders in human history have been white. Hell, 50 years ago a white Georgia governor won the White House.

One thing self-hating white people need to realize is that these minorities we keep lifting up are more racist and intolerant than we are. There are plenty of examples of Muslim-majority, black-majority, Latino-majority countries out there that have significant issues with human rights. When they’re the majority, they’re worse. So frick them and their criticisms.

Don’t let people guilt you into thinking they’re any more tolerant and that white people are the epitome of racism. Atlanta has had a black mayor every term since 1974. Do you think black people are sitting around thinking it might be time to switch it up for the sake of diversity? Hell no.

I believe at some in the next generation, perhaps this one. The world will be reminded that there is a faction of White people that can be the most violent race on the planet when pushed to the brink.

Katie Ledecky is clearly the answer, just not the one most people want.

I take competition into consideration, and women’s distance swimming isn’t exactly an ambition of too many girls. Nothing like boys being soccer or NBA stars.

All else equal, I would be more impressed with an athlete who’s a notch above 10,000 competitors than one who dominates 100 competitors.

Are Boomers responsible for the Hypersexualization that we see in America?

---

It’s just human nature plus technology.

Platforms like OF allow women to be whores today without even being in the same room as a man - any man. No sex, no strip club crowds, no club owners, no pimps, no Hugh Hefner types. Just your own camera and an empty room.

And if you’re lucky enough and the stars align, you can essentially be a whore without even taking your clothes off and maintain some degree of decency. Livvie Dunne doesn’t have 8 million followers on TikTok because she was such a good gymnast or has fascinating insights into anything of substance.

Women crave money and attention, and today’s technology makes it exceptionally easy for reasonably attractive women to use their sexuality to acquire one or both from men.

So we have hypersexualization.

The Seminoles owe Norvell roughly $51 million in a buyout, according to his contract. Sources told On3 that firing Norvell and his staff, along with making the next hire, would cost roughly $100 million. Norvell’s buyout is the third-largest in college football history.

Good grief.

I think the 2007 Pats could hold their own today, but going all the way back to the ‘80s and prior you’re talking about a major mismatch schematically and in the trenches.

Offenses running 21 personnel under center with OL averaging 275 lbs. are going to have a hard time scoring.

People need to remember most of these football coaches were nobody players at nobody schools and they're not some delicate geniuses.

---

Some coaches are better than others, but winning is so much about the players that it doesn’t really matter most of the time.

The bottom line is no one in college owes the NFL shite.

If a QB wants to sit at the same school for 3-5 years for “developmental reasons” regarding the NFL, he can. If he wants to bounce around for NIL deals, he can. If he wants to pursue academic ambitions, he can.

And college coaches are paid to win, not develop players for the NFL. Fans and the PTB would rather see a coach win a natty running the wishbone without a single player drafted than fall short and have ten players drafted in the first round who all go on to be Hall of Famers.

frick the NFL’s concerns.
