  • I must be the only one who is pretty meh on Sermon joining for 1 year.  Sure, he adds experience, which is good, but he was the 3rd back in a pass / QB run oriented offense

    Doesn't Steele and Chambers offer more of an upside...and they have been in the offense for a year and Sermon may only get one fall camp, if that/

    Well if you say it is, then it must be. 👍

    Real journalism is non-existent in the entertainment channels that try to pass themselves off as news channels...FOX, CNN, MSNBC and the like are nothing but entertainment.

    Real journalistic reporting reports what happened with substantiated facts...and lets the reader or viewer come to their own conclusions without tainting, spinning or slanting the message.  Period

    Conservatives have been bitching about the "death of journalism" for as many years as I can remember and will continue to until the end of time.  It's the main thread that unites the extreme right - they need it and depend upon it.  

    Good rant, sparky....don't let the fact that true journalism is dead get in the way.....

    Might be interesting if he recants on his VP leak and picks HRC.  Wouldn't that be some shit?

    Would not be a surprise at all.......

    Schumer should have a gag order on him.

    He is such a slimy weasel.....

    "Of course I didn't intend to suggest anything other than political and public opinion consequences for the Supreme Court, and it is a gross distortion to imply otherwise. I'm from Brooklyn. We speak in strong language. I shouldn't have used the words I did, but in no way was I making a threat. I never, never would do such a thing. And Leader McConnell knows that. And Republicans who are busy manufacturing outrage over these comments know that, too."

    First, liberals are the kings and queens of 'manufacturing outrage'.....

    Second, what does Mitch McConnell have to do with this...it was Chief Justice Roberts that called him out for his threatening rhetoric......

  • Been fiscally conservative all my life. Believe that the smaller the government, the better.

    Hillary is remarkable. Apparently she's able to murder others, flaunt justice, cover up major international incidents, and mostly anything else she supposedly wants to do.  Yet with all the United help of the Big Bad Media and Deep State (including the necessary closed mouth cooperation of thousands of co-consoirators, she is stillnot able to o win the presidency. 

     

    Remarkable.

    She can do all that, but cannot beat the Russians who elected Donald Trump to be President.

    except the DNC still very much has control and lets the moderate win? 

    Guess we'll have to see...so far the leaders are Bernie, AOC (I know she isn't running for President, but she is clearly a party leader) ...with Biden and Bloomberg trailing (Warren, too) and the rest have all left (Klobuchar, Mayor Pete, etc.)

    In some ways, the Tea Party movement absorbed the Republican party. The traditional Rockefeller GHW Bush Republican is no longer a factor in the party. The vocal far right wing/Evangelical be let c is firmly in control and tolerates no deviation. Trump was not a new angle. He really exemplified this movement in the extreme. 

    Seems that the same is happening in the DNC.....the more moderate, centrist Dems are being absorbed into the new, Socialist party.  The traditional JFK, LBJ, Bill Clinton Democrat is no longer a factor in the party.  The vocal far left wing Socialist Democrat is firmly in control and tolerates no deviation.

    Amir Riep and some other no name - better be dismissed from the program today.

    This is disgusting, if true.

    Amir Riep and Jahsen Wint have both been suspended from all OSU activities.

    you still don't answer.  I'm not defending AOC - not a fan at all.  I'm just wondering if you hold everyone to the same standard if they say something wrong.

    There is saying something wrong............and there is saying something stupid.

    May of AOC's statements are just plain stupid.

    This is what sucks about our democracy....its controlled by the $.  I am sure 30 or so senators would have voted another way ( for and against) Trump if it weren't for the $

    I don't think that it is so much the money...but getting re-elected. 

     

    IMO, if we had established term limits for the House and Senate, thereby not allowing being a Senator or Representative to be a career, then we would see more votes that were reflective of what the American people wanted rather than pandering to those influential minority groups that keep people in power.

    We're all getting old AF, the 1990s started 30 years ago. Use this thread to post cool stuff from the 1990s. I turned 7 in 1990, so this was definitely the most formative decade of my life.

    My wife and I have been watching old Disney movies lately. So far we've watched Beauty and the Beast, The Lion King, and Aladdin from the 90s.

    At trivia last night, one of the clues was a visual. It was to name the brand of this cassette (Memorex was photoshopped out, obviously). That got the nostalgia train running as well.

    Is it live....or is it Memorex?
