  1. Past hour
  2. huh? no. I'm calling him a good guy for telling Coleman D1 basketball isn't for him after all...he did the kid a huge favor in recruiting him and then letting him go. You keep saying I'm not giving "NBA players" for being good. Most of them are. Others simply aren't that good--but since teams don't (and probably can't ) scout every single player in the country, they instead focus on power 5 1 and done kids. So it's impossible to conclude that these teams eliminated every possible option. So they end up with guys like Springer, who would likely get destroyed 1 on 1 against as kid like Cotton in the day. As for Manuel, the obvious reply is the they didn't have to pick ANY QB that year, given the slim pickings (Wilson and Cousins were easily available the year before). Yet they settled on a guy who would predictably flame out soon (partly because country bumpkin GM thought Wilson was "too short"). But you would argue that EJ was better than any other college QB available anywhere.... simply because he was drafted. Makes no sense.
  3. I certainly wouldn’t. I’m on record as not loving the international games, but I’d have been there if the Bills played the Steelers in Dublin. That would be a lovely silver lining!
  4. I've had times like that but that was back in the early 80's... I don't have a problem with the newfangled holiday other than they didn't pick up the garbage today. I loaded that thing up which I usually don't do...
  5. The fact that a 5 digit number of ignorant people on the left (possibly more than attended trump's war parade) acted stupidly does not lead to the conclusion that much of the left didn't abide public health advice. From personal experience, there were many more redneck maga's endangering others and refusing vaccination than liberals. The red state/blue state numbers back up my observations.
  6. Like he’s gonna sleep with her in bed with him…,
  7. Ohh, Geez! The little voice from my right shoulder is back.
  8. Thank me, I resorted to putting on my Yankee attire for the 1st time since the opener.
  9. nothing to worry about. Masked unidentified agents just outside Dodgers stadium carrying automatic weapons. Just another day in trump's America. Good on the dodgers for denying access. Bad on ICE's lying mouthpieces. https://www.foxla.com/news/ice-dodger-stadium-immigration
  10. I’m the only one who initially thought this?
  11. Thank you! I've got a buddy who lives in Belfast who seems to have gone dark on social media after he got married, and he seems to miss his home of Plymouth in southern England so you may have something there! Only been on a puddle jumper with a brief stop in Shannon, Ireland, so never really been to Ireland proper which sucks. I want to visit also because some of my family comes from Cavan, and I have always wanted to see what it was like there.
  12. They really do try to screw up things that worked just fine…, to make it “better “
  13. Here's what me and Captain VPN think about the NFL overlords...
  14. Clearly NBA bench players are better than you’re giving them credit for. Good thing guys get to prove themselves in leagues like the G League and overseas. Look at all the success stories we’ve had! Oh wait, no, we don’t have many. If you’re deep on an NBA bench, you’re there for a reason. You bring something to practice that coaches believe is better than any other player available at your position. If they spot someone potentially better, that player is given an opportunity. I’m not going to get into the EJ Manuel experiment, that’s another discussion entirely and not in the same sport. But consider this… besides Geno Smith, how many draft eligible QBs in his class went on to be better than Manuel? Manuel was, by definition, better than his peers, he just wasn’t good enough for the NFL. All conjecture. As I stated earlier, the list of high school All Americans and collegiate All Americans that didn’t have an NBA career that panned out, even as a bench player, is longer than the list that did.
  15. Yeah, but does it have a Hemi? Yeee-hahhh!
  16. If vaxx hesitancy and reliance on HCQ was a problem, one can only imagine the spread caused by social justice mass gatherings. Death and serious illness was very good for the liberals leading up to Biden's election. Imagine if Trump had not delivered the vaccine?
