Ebola is incredibly easy to stop in the US. I don't know why anyone is afraid of this.

Where is the hate for Bret Michael's? Wasn't he a big Trump supporter?

Why can't Kash Patel ask his girlfriend to perform. She already has free use of an FBI swat team for protection.

How does a person fake being an engineer or a doctor? I mean, I get the fake degree thing. Maybe that gets your foot in the door. But once you have been hired somewhere, how does a person fake a career of being a technical professional when they aren't one? This doesn't speak very highly of our hospitals and engineering firms.

Did she think he wouldn't be President when they signed up?
Or any of them for that matter?

Man, you know you got issues when even Milli Vanilli said no. You know those dudes need a good paycheck and were still like “nah, I’m good.” Lol
quote:Yeah, people argued that it was safer to be thrown clear of an accident. People actually argued that. :rolleyes:
and some even argued there were more dangerous.
quote:About how to take out the regime, where the girl's school was, etc. Heck, we can make up some stuff just to shift blame for getting involved. Tell everyone that Israel didn't hold up their end of the war effort in Iran.
What “bad intel?”

quote:Sunken cost fallacy. We already miscalculated and now we are where we are. Reinstate the JCPOA, open up the Straight. Then tell Bibi to f off for bad intel and deduct the cost of the war from their aid.
If we agree to this “deal” then this may go down as one of the greatest foreign policy miscalculations in history. Truly snatching defeat from the jaws of victory type stuff.

Paid by whom? Alex is broke.

And that could end up being the most costly legacy of the Covid-19 outbreak. Because if we do get hit with something that spreads like covid but is more lethal and we really do need to act fast to contain it...no one will listen

quote:Nah. All they had to do was make some social media posts to some crazy bird watchers that the best place to watch birds was at a rat infested garbage dump in Argentina.
How would this work in theory? The evil globalists doing the conspiring snuck vials of Hantavirus onto a cruise ship and released them?

quote:The cruise ship can't treat anyone properly. They are being flown to home countries in private planes. The one to the US even had isolation pods.
Someone explain the wisdom of flying these people all over the world instead of quarantining them all together in one place
This is like Ebola where the best course of action for US doctors who were infected in Africa was to take them home for treatment. They survived here and we were even able to derive antibodies from the blood of the nurse that save lives when we had the mini outbreak in Dallas.
The main worry is the people not in the CDC facility. Just have to hope that if they get sick they don't go to a facility that will drop the ball and send them home with Tylenol.

Don't know why you are getting downvotes for that. An asymptomatic spreader would be a problem. That would put a worry on the Americans who left the cruise ship before Hanta was identified.
I am not worried about spread from the 17 quarantined in Nebraska.

OP should change thread title. I believe the guy, but Niang is still not a commit. We don't Boom silent commits.
quote:And that would be the appropriate time to start this thread.
The quote didn’t really discourage the idea that he would come here. Just that there is no commitment yet.
It wouldn't be a big deal, but he used this thread to call out anyone who didn't kiss his assist in the first thread.

quote:As a late 1st rounder he gets a guaranteed 2 year deal at $2.5-$3 million per year.
No its not. Graves is rumored to be offered 4 million for his services next year.
Edited to add not late first round money. Graves isn't a lottery pick.
Obviously it all depends on being promised to be picked in the 1st round and where. If it isn't NBA, then LSU should be a favorite.

1st round NBA money is better, and the 2nd contract is even better.
NIL has changed the game, but take a look at NBA salaries.

quote:His agent has to be pushing him to the NBA over uncertain landing spots in college. Even as an LSU fan I can't say what his role will be with only 2 signees so far. Not even sure if there is a good college offer. If he gets a 1st round guarantee I would encourage him to go. Otherwise, college is an option.
Deciding between LSU and NBA.
I usually don't trust Wade on his word, but he has a pass from me on results for this season anyway.
Having said that, it seems like he has moved on from plan A to sign a bunch of 5 for 5 super seniors to sign a bunch of international near pros.
Even with Plan B he is keeping a couple of slots open for the super seniors that he is close with just in case. Beyond that he has his one signee from the portal and will possibly take one more.
All of this is just his 1st year strategy. Next year he will pull in a few 5 for 5 guys, 1 or 2 top international guys, and start to fill the roster with top high school recruits, which is his bread and butter.
I have little doubt that he will be successful with his NIL backing.
