    Will any liberal here admit that the current standoff is the result of one thing, and one thing only:  personal hatred toward Trump?

    given the political climate it could partially be this. 

    Or it could be that D's think the wall is a monumental waste of money and that the wall money could be sunk into something more effective/useful.

    The hysteria over NN repeal is/was laughable at best. With 5G  coming soon it will be even more laughable.  

    I was reading on another board, and people were up in arms over Trump repealing Obama-era regulations on small waterways....basically Trump was making it "ok" to pollute water!  

    Then it was pointed out that the law was passed in 2015...so back to the dirty, polluted water of 2014.  But actually the law hadn't even gone into effect, yet....so back to the dirty, polluted water we already had.  And, finally, the Trump EPA is re-writing the rule to give more power and control of the issue to the states.  The HO-RR-OR!!!

    Nothing like a little fake news to provide the daily fix for outrage!

  • Today is the one year anniversary since the FCC voted to repeal NN (yes I know it went into effect in June).  As predicted, the end of the internet is nowhere near and all of these people who were supposed to die are still alive.  In fact broadband investment increased for the first time since NN and internet speeds in the US went from being ranked 12th in the world to 6th.  I even see ISPs providing incentives such as free prime membership for a year if you sign a contract with them.  The hysteria over NN repeal is/was laughable at best. With 5G  coming soon it will be even more laughable.

    there have been 518 total appearances in the fcs playoff.

    james madison is responsible for 15 of those appearances

    north dakota state is responsible for 9 of those appearances

    those are simply appearances, not championship wins.

    so no, you're wrong. like normal. shut up.

    I'm not sure why you're using those stats but currently North Dakota State absolutely dominates that division with a team that is probably a top 20 team in FBS.  It's just shocking to see college football like this today, where most of your major conferences are pretty much owned by one team

     Everyone talks about how FCS has one, they also have North Dakota State and James Madison in the finals every single year

    All bowls including the rose bowl have been diminished forever, unless they double as one of the play-off bowls.

    i think the introduction of the playoff was definitely the final blow, but the decline of importance/significance of bowls was the introduction of additional bowl games.

    they used to be a privilege/acknowledgement of a "good season" by quality teams.

    now you have teams like 6-6 tulane playing 7-6 louisiana lafayette in the who gives a damn bowl

    My question is, is it unreasonable to request, or even demand that they lower the bill before we send payment?

     

    yes. if anything you should send them more because it is money they were entitled to several months ago. money in which they could've earned interest on.

    better send them $6000 to be safe.

  • Dishonest, incompetence, bad business are all synonymous... in my opinion.

    Words have actual meanings... in my opinion.

    Dishonest and incompetent synonymous? Not even close


    You're both right.  No, they are not synonymous.  I guess, rather, each fall under "bad business practices."  I will complain about anything that I, as a customer, feel is bad business practices.  I am unapologetic about it, too, b/c it is my wallet from which the funds are coming.

  • I'm so angry at Trump that he stood by while Russia interfered in the election and did nothing.  He was the president while this was going on.  Why didn't he do anything?  

     

    Oh wait...
