These MAGA nuts have just lost their minds https://www.washingtonpost.com/nation/2024/03/01/ivf-embryos-alabama-ruling-conservative-women/ Late last Saturday, after she’d put her two toddlers to bed in central North Carolina, Hannah Nelson spotted a troubling post in her Instagram feed: “The Alabama ruling & a Christian consideration of IVF.” “Being pro-life does not mean ‘have babies through whatever means necessary’,” a Christian influencer had written of the recent ruling by Alabama’s Supreme Court that frozen embryos are children — a decision invoking God that quickly upended IVF treatment in the state, panicked many women there and elsewhere and sent legislators scrambling to respond. Nelson, who conceived her son through IVF, is not normally political online. Her Instagram profile reads “Jesus follower. Wife. Mama. Optimist. School counselor.” But that post by Allie Beth Stuckey, who has more than a half-million followers, shocked and saddened her, and she felt compelled to push back. “There is an ethical and Christian way to do IVF,” she wrote. “I am curious why you’re against that means of creating a family.” Across red-state America, other conservative Christian women have had similar reactions since the Feb. 16 court ruling. Like Nelson, they usually post online about faith and family. In the past two weeks, though, they’ve become outspoken, even angry advocates. They’ve decried the Alabama ruling on their social media pages, galvanized to defend both their values and in vitro fertilization. Their comments have often appeared amid photos of the babies that IVF made possible. Nelson, 30, resorted to the procedure after years of struggling with endometriosis. Her Instagram feed includes photos of her son’s embryo and then of 3-year-old Brent as a baby. (His onesie proclaimed “For this child we have prayed.”) She was able to conceive naturally with her second child, but she and her husband still have four embryos frozen that she plans to use someday. “I never thought [IVF] was so polarizing. There’s mamas who I just truly believe are meant to be mamas that can’t do it without IVF,” said Nelson, a school counselor. She thinks the procedure “can be used for God’s glory” — and that “it’s best for the government to keep its hands out of it.” In Pensacola, Fla., Emily Ley felt “a responsibility” to speak up — not only because she and her husband have friends across the border in Alabama whose IVF treatment was disrupted but because they’re worried about the implications for others. “It’s only a matter of time before it starts to happen in other states. It just terrifies me,” she said. The mother of three, who owns her own business, typically posts online about home organization to her 235,000 Instagram followers. She considers herself fiscally conservative yet socially liberal and most times stays away from political subjects. Not right now.

My thoughts: This is the rare week where CBS has to use all seven of their broadcast teams. For the first time, apparently (?,) in the middle of a season when byes have existed, there will be no byes this week (there *were* byes last season in Week 8, for example). (Of course, there are never byes Thanksgiving week.) LOL, as Kansas City only gets CBS's C-team this week.

Collinsworth is worse than many of you think Beth Mowins is. Absolutely cannot stand him and his ridiculously bad takes. And the endless jock sniffing for his favorites.

👎No thanks. Beth Mowins was on one of those calls and TBD hates themselves some Beth Mowins.

No contest - Beth Mowens. It's when that mute button on the remote really earns it's keep.

Joe Buck with Chris Collinsworth as color commentator. Throw in Beth Mowens as the on field reporter. Dream team right there!

Beth Mowins and Rex Ryan.

Are you f*cking kidding me? This is like suggesting Rex Ryan and Beth Mowins take the MNF duties.

First person I could think of was Beth Mowins.

What about everyone's favorite announcer Beth Mowins?

This might bethe most competitive AFCin History 7-8 Super Bowl worthy teams are not going. Could be the Bills fate.

Not sure what you mean. Beth Mowins is unique for women commentators in that regard. That's her actual voice. Every other woman commentator sounds like a woman.

One of the things I like about Kay, amongst many others I like, is that she doesn’t use that fake weird man sports voice you typically hear with like Beth Mowins. I know they teach that in these sports journalism programs and I hate it.

Yeah with that voice he'd be the Beth Mowins of the NFL.

I hope we get Beth Mowans

John Murphy, Beth Mowins, and Chris Collinsworth.

At least we didn’t get Beth Mowins.

The criticism of every commentator/host/announcer is over the top. There's nobody today on TV or Radio that is universally loved. A lot of people here have an issue with Collinsworth. There was a fair number of Dierdorf haters back in the day. Some can't stand Tasker. I like all 3 of them. Chris Brown on WGR tries too hard to be a comedian, can be overly-animated with inflections that make my speakers rattle (any of you GR engineers heard of limiters or compression?) , and interrupts too often, but gotta give him credit for doing his homework and having good insight for someone who never played. Most agree that Beth Mowens has an annoying voice. But, if you read a transcript or used closed-caption for her, you'd realize she too has done her homework and is knowledgeable. Maddy's voice is not the best for broadcasting (I'm used to it now), but like Beth, she knows her stuff. Besides, she seems like a really sweet and genuine person. Madden and Cosell were not always loved before they became cultural and broadcast legends. Maybe some throwbacks like Keith Jackson, Dick Enberg, or Merlin Olsen were rarely disliked. But, I agree that there's a lot of listeners who have issues with many of the personalities. It's their right. I really don't, or if I do, I simply don't listen (Bulldog). When I first relocated to Georgia in the 80's, the most Bills' info I often had access to was a 2-sentence blurb in that POS rag USA Today. I'm just happy to have so much content that's specifically Bills-related, regardless of the messenger.

We really need Beth Mowins... that'll really spark up the play call.

I seriously thought they were every bit as bad as Rex Ryan/Beth Mowins. Especially Sanchez.
