So there have been people who opted out of a White House visit with a Democrat in office? And there have also been people criticized by the press for playing golf with a Democrat? If there have been I am not aware of it.

It is definitely not the same coin.

Unlike the reason you may do something, I wasn't trying to harm the NFL, just exercise my choice as a consumer. This isn't a protest. :lol:

Exactly why I don't watch the NFL. About to be why I quit watching college sports. Spring sports are really the only thing left with real student-athletes, and that is changing too.

Sometimes that is hard if you go on a run once he takes over. But you are usually correct.

the shooting we are talking about isn't counted as a mass shooting because they don't hold a weapon properly or aim very well.


I think it is because there are 4 people shot not including the shooter. That is the definition liberal news outlets like CNN use and some government agencies.

quote:

AI Overview

The definition of a mass shooting as "four or more people shot, injured or killed, excluding the shooter, in one incident" is not the result of a single entity or a formal legal definition, but rather a common understanding adopted by many sources, including the Gun Violence Archive and CNN, USAFacts and The Violence Project. While some agencies like the FBI have used similar criteria for tracking crime data, the definition is not universally mandated or enforced.

It is not a mystery. Hollywood is fantasyland. All they do is play dress up and make believe. I'd be shocked if they weren't all fricked up.

I thought it was a bad hire as Maineri seemed way past his prime to me. But I also thought the same about Calipari and he seemed to do a pretty good job at Arkansas. What do I know?

Yeah LSU fans are always worried about schedules until it works against them. UF has played a tougher schedule than LSU and has a better conference record and similar overall record. LSU has fattened up on a schedule that features more home games than anyone. UF has played 25 home games compared to LSU at 34 home games.

This is why UF is #2 in the RPI.

Arkansas is on a heater. They have recently taken 2/3 from Tennessee, 2/3 from Florida, 2/3 from Carolina, and this weekend, 2/3 from #1 Texas A&M.

It should be a great series with LSU.
