Given the general police track record all across this country of not believing victims, not properly investigating, and not processing rape kits, I'm not sure how much stock I put into "no charges so therefore completely innocent". And most of that is on regular civilian rapes. When a top athlete in a small college town is involved, they're even more incentivized to sweep it under the rug. That is what hurt Araiza. SDSU and the local police originally swept the whole thing under the rug because SDSU was about to get a bid to join the PAC-12, and they didnt want to hurt the chances with a scandal. So they just ignored her claims. Had they properly investigated it at the time, they could have cleared Araiza and then it all goes away. Sounds like more was done here in the Hairston case, which is good. And most of the stuff is public record now so easier to make a determination. But in general, "the cops didnt press charges" doesnt mean much when it comes to star athlete assaults.

They want the ability to draft guys with character "concerns" and not have to pay the cost when the issues inevitably arise. They got burned by Jermaine Burton just this past year. That's what this is about. And lookie here! Pac Man Jones is still getting arrested: https://www.cincinnati.com/story/news/2025/06/11/adam-pacman-jones-pleads-not-guilty-to-assaulting-officer/84136075007/

Flailing Gavin Newsom Tries to Defend Chaos in the Golden State by Invoking… Jan. 6, of Course Bob Hoge The progressives have gotten so predictable that you can write their responses for them. One of their cities is overrun by crime and homelessness? "But, but, Trump is Hitler!" Protesters are throwing rocks at law enforcement, setting fires and vandalizing property? It’s “mostly peaceful.” They call for violence, watch it take over their streets, and then say, “but JAN. 6!!” Like clockwork, California Gov. Gavin Newsom sent out an email from his Campaign For Democracy PAC Sunday morning pretending that he and officials like LA Mayor Karen Bass are victims and that they aren’t part of the root cause of the violence that plagued the City of Angels over the weekend. He went on to accuse President Trump of inciting violence, when Mayor Bass and other Democrats are on record explicitly calling for action. But of course, when all else fails, we can reminisce about Jan.6, as if that has anything to do with current events https://redstate.com/bobhoge/2025/06/08/flailing-gavin-newsom-tries-to-defend-chaos-in-the-golden-state-by-invoking-jan-6-of-course-n2190199

And of course this begs the question. Democrats told you all these positions and ideas are the “right side of history.” So why are they abandoning them? (They aren’t they’re just rebranding them) Also, they shut down earth because of the flu. But maybe if the white guys in their party grow their beards longer, Americans will vote for them again: https://www.politico.com/news/2025/06/07/great-unawokening-2028-presidential-candidates-00393376 (I can’t stop laughing at the bolded) …..“Stop talking about bathrooms and locker rooms and start talking about the classroom,” said Emanuel, the former ambassador to Japan and two-term Chicago mayor who said he is open to a 2028 presidential campaign. “If one child is trying to figure out their pronoun, I accept that, but the rest of the class doesn’t know what a pronoun is and can’t even define it,” Each of these candidates are, either deliberately or tacitly, countering a perceived weakness in their own political record or party writ large—Emanuel, for example, has called the Democratic Party “weak and woke”; Sen. Elissa Slotkin (D-Mich.) has said the party needs more “alpha energy”; others like Newsom are perhaps acknowledging a more socially liberal bent in the past. On diversity, equity, and inclusion, some in the party are also sending a signal they’re no longer kowtowing to their left flank. Former Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg removed his pronouns from his social media bio months ago, and questioned how the party has communicated about it. Ground zero for the party’s great un-awokening was this week’s WelcomeFest, the moderate Democrats’ Coachella. There, hundreds of centrist elected officials, candidates and operatives gathered to commiserate over their 2024 losses and their party’s penchant for purity tests. Panels on Wednesday featured Slotkin, Reps. Jared Golden (D-Maine) and Marie Gluesenkamp Perez (D-Wash.), described as “legends of the moderate community,” and included a presentation by center-left data guru David Shor, who has urged Democrats to shed toxic positions like “defund the police.” Adam Frisch, the former congressional candidate and director of electoral programs at Welcome PAC, said his party is “out of touch culturally with a lot of people.” “I think a lot of people are realizing, whether you’re running for the House, the Senate, or the presidential, we better start getting on track with what I call the pro-normal party coalition,” Frisch said. “You need to focus on normal stuff, and normal stuff is economic opportunity and prosperity, not necessarily micro-social issues.”

Lol “Republicans (Dem Super PAC) Against Trump..” Lol Might want to read in the Helene thread how many posts I made in there. “Months throwing tantrums.” Lol That would have been Fergy (100) - he was awfully defensive Me - maybe 3 posts in that thread. Sometimes - and you should learn this - not much needs to be said. Biden’s incompetence and yours is pretty clear for all to see.

Npr is not suing. A highly funded PAC is suing on their behalf. Similar to much of the lawfare being used to slow the agenda.

Just let that sink in a minute. Unprecedented!!! Musk doesn’t operate in the shadows. He knew what he was getting into and has owned it. He’s the most transparent billionaire to ever influence your government. Can’t say that about the Super PAC money and the Soros family.

Benford has the potential to be elite. Although I don’t think his athleticism is quite at that level. I am real excited to watch Hairston play. He has elite speed. And that’s a great attribute to start your NFL career with. I actually thought that Kincaid could be elite coming out of Utah. But I may have been overly optimistic after watching him shred the USC defense in the 2022 PAC 12 championship. ( But that was a terrible defensive team.) At this point I would be happy if Kincaid turns into a good TE. A Todd Heap type (used to play for the Ravens in the earlier 2000’s.) As for Coleman he didn’t show a whole lot over the course of last season. Let’s hope for a big jump this coming year.

@ big balls!! He's bumping again! Super PAC Influencer Bill at it again. 10 thread bumps in 15 minutes

he is the same size as a guy like pac man jones. Size of his body was never a problem, now the size of jones brain was an issue.

nico made a bad business decision Yeah, dont like the pac 10 joining the Big 10

Pac man can't spell splendid

Pac Man, is that you?

Isn't Serendipity the name the exotic dancer that Pac Man Jones pledged half of his signing bonus to on the night of the draft?

Fergy’s Draft Analysis (2025) * If Beane trades down, he will. But (keep in mind) he could trade up or possibly stay put. So there’s that. * No matter if he stays put or moves, our first pick will be defense (possibly offense depending what’s on the board). Look for a player who attended a D1 school with a motor. Above average cone drill and broad jump (or vertical). That’s where we make draft impact. * 2nd pick will definitely be offense because we need some help moving the ball faster. But if it’s a defensive player, I’m predicting that too. Why? Because you can always use a high motor kid that loves the game. That’s where we find those players. Also, look for a players with hips, tibias and ulnas. Long limbs and a fella with stats. 3rd pick. May be a trade down, or maybe collect lower picks and trade up for a higher pick. Beane will look for a good player without defective limbs. Possibly someone with 9 fingers but most likely 10 and at least 9 toes. Probably someone from the eastern shore to Texas. Can’t say for sure but I like the players that have played in warm weather but exposed to some cool weather and precipitation (PAC 10 and Big 10 also). Thoughts?

Chiefs? The Bengals took Joe Mixon when no one else would. They also signed Pac Man Jones AFTER the Vegas incident. They rostered Chris Henry until the end. They took Jermaine Burton in the last draft. Mike Brown views guys with criminal records as good "value." Bond will be a Cincinnati Bengal. I would put money on that.

Such a very sad situation. The once great, maybe greatest country, once greatest democracy finds it self in need of a reset, particularly in financial spending and debt areas, immigration controls areas, and with all the compassion the USA has historically shown, with all the goodwill the USA has built over a century, with all the strong alliances the USA had formed in the past 150 years, the USA could not find a way of accomplishing this, discussing this, sharing this, without destroying its legacy, without punishing her friends, allies, without internal conflicts which we all know will lead to bad times, without forcing much of its population into recession, maybe depression. 70 years ago the US citizens died for Vietnam, led Vietnam into the world, presented them opportunity to be free, and now destroys them financially without so much as a discussion, without finding a mutual pac. The same people they fought beside. Rugs that the US laid, pulled without consideration of talk, or discussion or even an ultimatum. This has occurred around the globe. The threat of global recession, or depression lays at the feet of the US. Nobody disputes change, nobody disputes the present may be unsustainable, but USA leadership has found it necessary, even enjoyable, to pull that jointly laid rug, while throwing shovels of ***** onto their past friends and allies, even threats of greater actions. Sad.

We have a new competitor for Worst Pardon Ever! This is the guy marketing the EV/Hydrogen fueled commercial truck. Spoiler: it didn't work. Like at all. He staged a video for investors where they allowed a truck to roll downhill. He claimed it was a working prototype. In other words, it was a scam. A ridiculous, ham-handed scam. So why was he pardoned? You tell me. Meanwhile, I'll tell you this: - he sold about $400 million of Nikola shares before the stock totally tanked - he used that money to hire new AG Pam Bondi's brother to be his pardon attorney - he also used it to donate about $1.8 million to pro-Trump PACs. They aren't even trying to conceal the corruption. Pardons for sale. - he contributed

Damn ten million and PAcs ballot harvesting and they only got it by 500 votes. And voter turnout under 30%

Lol Same voices screaming about the same msm/dnc/pac narratives like they have for years . Same voices threatening, commiting, and supporting Violence. Same money suing and using the courts for lawfare in the name of "protecting democracy" Funny part is how the left screams that the rich need to pay more taxes. When the rich are donating to PACs vs paying said tax. So said PACs can lead the hurd of blue hairs, around by the bull ring. Where every narrative results in massive tax funds directly to the fortune 500 and said PACs.

He’s railing against Ovechkin. Because he doesn’t trash Putin he’s obviously pro “imperialist war” and of course…..an enemy of democracy. He’s also replying to Democrat Super PAC funded X account Brooklyn Dad. My favorite hockey player ever. Just sad.

https://www.msnbc.com/the-reidout/reidout-blog/trump-supporters-spike-online-misogyny-rcna179661 In just a 24-hour span after the election, researchers reportedly found a “4,600% increase in mentions of the terms ‘your body, my choice’ and ‘get back in the kitchen’ on X.” The report refers to multiple social media users who said they or their children were told "your body, my choice" in class. The researchers found tens of thousands of accounts using the phrase “dumb c--t” to refer to Vice President Kamala Harris and other women on Election Day itself, using an insult Elon Musk’s super PAC referred to in a suggestive anti-Harris ad. And the researchers also found calls for “rape” and “rape squads” garnered thousands of views on social media after last week’s election.

Dallas tried that with Pac-Man jones. If I remember correctly he beat up the bodyguard in a club one night.

I'm not saying I love either too either.. but I also wouldn't say cam Ward is going to be bad because he played in the ACC or pac-12.. those are or were major conferences FBS... Now if he was in the Patriot League FCS I would say that's weak... But ACC puts out 40 draft picks a year... Big 10 only had 42 If burden replicated his sophomore stats he wouldn't even leave the top 10 I don't think you'll ever get a talent of that caliber at 30 often.. a guy who was a blue chip prospect that every stage I could care less about his down year of stats because Missouri's not a powerhouse and Brady cook is nothing special Missouri is a good football team who when they have a good team can compete in the SEC.. but Brady cook isn't anything special

I don't think you like a lot of players lol Every single player in the draft can bust.. every single player has talent.. from the very first pick to the very last, that's a fact Cam Ward is a really talented football player that doesn't mean he's going to be good in the pros.. but he can be There's a reason why he's basically the consensus top quarterback in the draft.. to be the top amateur person at your position is hard to do He's basically on the same level of prospect as drake maye.. and this board thinks Drake Maye is good for New England I'm not talking the style I'm talking the talent level.. the ability to throw a football and play on or off script... He also comes from a Washington state offense that produced gardener minshaw who is a NFL veteran.. and ward definitely has more talent I mean I'm not saying the kid is going to be a stud in the NFL but playing in the pac-12 or ACC is not the reason he will or won't be good.. those are or were major FBS conferences I don't care if you play in the MAC ... It's FBS football
