  1. felt like this team has given up on the season after the loss to FlSt
  2. Hoping for some entertaining games today
  3. You sure that’s the reason why? Like realllllllly sure ?????
  4. What most companies will probably do if they have to have mandatory sick time (separate from PTO) is they will just take that amount of PTO and make it sick days, so people will have less vacation time.
  5. Sounds like he is driving the wrong car!
  6. if we beat Louisville and Fl St and a good showing in the ACC tourney too I think we can get in, a lot of IFs though
  7. lol but that ain’t the only factor !
  8. Damn this thread brought back a lot of emotions for me, it is truly the hardest thing to do even if you know is is right. It’s about a year ago to the day when I had to put my Great Dane down. He was a rescue dog that I named Otto after Syracuse’s mascot. Was such a good dog but he had back leg issues that seemed to stem from his malnourishment as a puppy from the owner he had to be rescued from. He just stopped being able to stand up and whined all night in pain. I still remember hearing him whine and just cried all night knowing what I had to do the next day. I know he is in a better place and it was the right thing to do for him but it’s still heartbreaking. I hope you are okay, just know it will get better ***** now I’m crying....
  9. Hope the cuse win for u!
  10. At least pick a good looking chick, if you risk getting caught at least make it more understandable lol
  11. Is Trump using an assault budget, or perhaps an assault veto? Inquiring minds want to know what he is using to assault health care
  12. @Foxx on point with his emojis in this thread Also, I notice when I reply at the same time as someone I have on ignore, their poss show up, kinda annoying really.
  13. There is a show that I watched on Hulu, forget what original channel it was on, this guy goes exploring and treasure hunting etc. He went to that place and went diving there, he was hoping for it to be an old ancient city, but came to the same conclusion.
  14. Lol it was a pointed question as he said he searched everywhere but did not list it
  15. I will watch to see how Aaron Murray does for Tampa, I liked him coming out of college
  16. you still haven’t made the case imo that popular vote changes any of the tilting, it just changes the states, that one can win the popular vote and lose the election is by design, this was never supposed to be a direct democracy
  17. It was just a joke lol I’m not even against weed
  18. The system is working how our fore fathers intended, if states want to change how their electoral votes are assigned they can. why do you think the states haven’t made this change?
  19. You would still have disenfranchisement among voters in smaller states, this may sound like a good idea in theory but in practice it wouldn’t work the same way. Their voice wouldn’t matter to candidates as they wouldn’t be campaigning there (like what happens now with swing states) the candidates would focus their policies on the bigger states (like what happens now, but toward swing states), and the election would come down to 12 states or so just like now. there was a reason they designed the system this way, they decided to err on the other side of the equation and I believe for good reason. States are supposed to have power and say in the elections. They also can choose how their electoral votes are delegated. If states want to divvy up their votes proportional to the popular vote they can do so, but not many states are doing that (I think one does? but by doing so they are forfeiting some power). this isn’t a party thing either, debates about this go back to Andrew Jackson and John Quincy Adams when it first happened. They haven’t changed it since, so why would they now? You say republicans don’t want to bc it helps their side (paraphrasing) but the opposite side of the coin can be true as well and that the dems only want it changed bc it helps theirs
  20. I wasnt making that argument, and perhaps should have had a modifier on my second statement. Its not about making it equal or getting them better represented, but to make it more difficult on the larger states to force their will upon the smaller ones. Changing it to the popular vote just changes which states are the focus, and doesnt make it more inclusive as you suggest
  21. Right, they came up with this as the compromise of equal representation vs population based.
  22. They would focus their campaign on the most populous states, which would just be the same ***** different toilet than what we got now. Our government was formed so that the most populous states wouldnt control what the smaller states did, hence the bicameral congress. The electoral college is another example of that.
