You are missing the point. My commentary is not about the likelihood of a world war. I am simply observing that we are not seeing the histrionics about WWIII from the usual suspects. Nor are we seeing the anti-interventionist, anti-world police, isolationist rhetoric that we have been subjected to since Putin invaded Ukraine. Now its our patriotic duty to walk back everything we might have said about Ukraine, Afghanistan, and Iraq over the last 8 years. Proxy war, regime change, and intervening in the middle east was always a good idea. Russian nuclear threats were always a joke. They were a joke 4 years ago and they're a joke today. People play along when its politically expedient. When you can throw mud at your opponents and call them all war mongers, you do it. When your guy gets involved in another foreign war, its our moral imperative to liberate the poor Iranian people and you're heartless to think otherwise.

https://www.reuters.com/world/middle-east/russia-warns-us-not-help-israel-militarily-against-iran-2025-06-18/ The entire middle east has been one long proxy war since the end of WWII. Every conflict involving Israel has been funded and armed by the United States on the Israeli side and the Russians arming everyone else. I never believed Ukraine had the makings of WWIII but that didnt stop most of this forum for assuring me nukes were about fall and it was all Biden's fault.

Florida looked overwhelmed in the first period of game 1 and parts of game 2 but they adapted to Edmonton's speed and got stronger the longer the series went. They completely neutralized McDavid's speed, kept him to the outside, and minimized the rush opportunities. Edmonton was forced to simplify their game. Florida turned a fast pace, finesse offense into one which had no other option but take shots from the point and get traffic in the crease. By game 6 Edmonton was a less gritty form of the Hurricanes. It was an incredible team performance on defense. And their offense was lethal. Every mistake Edmonton made last night resulted in a quality scoring chance or goal. Watching these teams play is a grim reminder of how far away the Sabres are from competing.

Trump declares "We" have total control of Iranian airspace and no one bats an eye. Trump declares unconditional surrender is the only solution. Ted Cruz all but declares that the U.S. is heavily involved in the war in Iran and no one bats an eye. No concerns about WWIII kicking off. No concerns about the money spent on a foreign war in the Middle East. No concerns about America world police. Proxy war good now.

This is what "culture" war on all fronts leads to.

If you had any balls you'd have 72 virgins by now. Where's your initiative?

I really don't know what to expect from the Trump obsessed. How will the people who have adorned their homes and cars with cheap Trump merch adapt in a post Trump world? And the businesses slinging Trump merch, what will they do? There are three Trump Burger locations in the houston area. Are they going to become De Santis Burger's or Marjorie Taylor Green Burgers? And then theres the scammers with their Trump NFTs and Trump Coin and Melania Coin. You cannot rebrand a crpyto currency. The Trump obsessed have based their entire personality on the guy. They do not care about issues its all a cult of personality. Can they just re-attach to the next MAGA heir apparent and deify a pretender? I expect they will completely remove themselves from politics and mainstream society at large. I don't see how they reintegrate. Its a truly strange and embarrassing condition.

OMG THEY'RE TRYING TO START WWIIII!!!11!!!

Expansion beyond 32 teams would be a mistake.

You guys have been cheering on the extra judicial detainment and deportation of supposed illegals and American citizens without due process. I think due process means due process. Don't tread on me but tread all over them, fine patriot.

Rights like due process? You want some freedoms unfettered and other freedoms trampled by force. You're a good authoritarian and its been clear as day.

Thats a tough answer. Also the question is open to interpretation. Should I be thinking about this in terms of: $$$$ and never see a Super Bowl victory in my lifetime? OR $$$$ there will be no Super Bowl Victory this season? 1. Its in the millions. Its gotta be life changing money for me to basically give up on football and betray my friends, family, and hometown. 2. I could live with trading one year of Allen's prime for money and no championship. I've been doing it for free for years. This year is one of our best chances to win it all in the Allen era. I would take a $500k and convince myself it wasn't their year anyway.

There's no shortage of "don't tread on me" patriots cheering and laughing as the military rolls over their fellow Americans. Funny when the green haired kid gets pepper sprayed but its tyranny and a banana republic when the guy in the "We the People" T-shirt catches charges. Plenty of hypocrisy to go around.

Some of the recent nostalgia sequels have been pretty good. The new Beverly Hills Cop: Axle F, Top Gun: Maverick, Ghostbusters: Afterlife were all entertaining. Maverick might be better than the original. Nothing gets made today without attaching the movie to proven IP. As long as Mel Brooks is involved, I think it will be decent.

The only thing we know for certain is that he handed a baggie containing a pink powder to some scantily clad sluts on a boat. I did a keyword search through the NFL bylaws for sluts, pink, powder, baggie, and boats and came up with nothing. I really do not see what rules he could have violated.

Its remarkable how much of an effect that December injury had on his performance in weeks 1 through 15.

It is ridiculous that Houston does not have a team. 4th or 5th biggest city in the country, the old IHL team had some of the highest attendances in the league, theres a lot of canadian transplants here via the Calgary-Houston oil and gas exchange and a ton of Northeast transplants here, and you have the 3rd most Fortune 500 companies of any city in the country. The demographics, the money, the population all make Houston an obvious choice. The only thing stopping this plainly obvious move is red tape around the arena's lease and the I believe the NHL is leery about sharing time and profit with the Rockets. https://www.houstonpress.com/news/four-reasons-the-nhl-in-houston-is-complicated-15717672#google_vignette https://www.chron.com/sports/article/tilman-fertitta-nhl-team-houston-19789684.php

Probably because I just made it up.

That was my first thought. How long have you served a man you believe to be a pedo? Not quite the flex he thinks it is but this is scripted 4D chess, after all. And 4D chess is typically sloppy, impulsive, and childish in my experience.

No matter what the opinion is you can find a number of people on Twitter who agree.

Its never intentional anymore. He tried to clear it high off the glass so it would exit the zone but without the heat on it to ice the puck but he got under the puck too much and it went over the glass. Just like the 10,000 times it happens in the regular season. That said, it did not meet the criteria for flagrant 2 delay of game where a player intentionally launches the puck into the upper deck with intent to stop play. A flagrant 2 delay of game results in a minor penalty and a 2 min man advantage.

He flipped the puck over the glass. Are there degrees of flagrance in this act? I don't know what you're asking.
