  1. Plus shatter the idea that the SEC is the only place people care about college football.
  2. Not in the same class as an athletic play but for as important as it was to the trajectory of the season it was Trey Sweeney's catch of the popup on 21/SEP/2024 against the Orioles
  3. Hegseth probably has a lot of enablers. I'm sure he's a saint with his kids when he's sober.
  4. no argument on the relative merits but, the most recent Nat championship was flavored with portal guys not entirely built from them. We might have to do it the portal way to get it in 2 but the QB is the most important component and he's gonna be playing in year 2.
  5. South Korea having a largely conscripted army is possible mitigation. The trinity of war is harder to break if the line is blurred between the citizens and the armed forces. Also, and a larger part of this is that SK has a real national security challenge up north and this was probably seen as a terrible leader doing Trump games to stay in power.
  6. Gonna be an important day in Michigan football history. Hopefully they can get a class they can win a natty with in 2 years.
  7. https://bsky.app/profile/amandamarcotte.bsky.social/post/3lchzub2das2g Article https://www.salon.com/2024/12/04/elon-musks-twitter-harassment-of-employees-shows-doge-is-weaker-than-he-pretends/ I'd say the fear of Musk destroying the professional civil service is not unjustified.
  8. I'm sorry, what? You think the base of the Democratic party sympathizes with Putin and Asad?
  9. and it was because of this? https://www.mediaite.com/news/new-lindsey-graham-calls-pete-hegseth-reports-very-disturbing-confirmation-will-be-difficult/
  10. Looks like plan b is Desanctimonius https://www.wsj.com/politics/elections/trump-mulls-replacing-pete-hegseth-with-florida-gov-ron-desantis-8f682ad2
  11. I'm glad the South Korean people stood up to the coup. I hope the lessons learned is that in a democracy the armed forces should not get involved in domestic politics. Just like the national security community warned before January 6th.
  12. Oh look... https://www.semafor.com/article/12/03/2024/despite-agreement-trump-nominees-may-seek-to-avoid-fbi-background-checks
  13. I'd be happy to subject her to a full field investigation but they would never let her sit through that.
  14. Also, had to explain to ladies in my softball league's board that we should have a bluesky account but then had to accept that our Facebook and instagram accounts only have miniscule numbers and people have heard of those. I will never put up our info on nextdoor.
  15. Seeing a lot of people on bsky saying it was the only place the South Korean coup was being reported. I can see why X would block it because Jan 6. I guess the news moved pretty fast. If true that the story was moving faster on bsky than elsewhere and being screened as well as could be -- judging by the pre-Elon twitter days standard --that is a very good thing.
  16. all the touts are picking GB to win this one. ...
  17. We knew the Kirk Campbell move was coming. Glad it wasn't allowed to linger into the bowl prep.
  18. He’s not worth it
  19. Real patriots want America to be more like Russia and Syria.
  20. Russian assets should not be the DNI. Do you have a rebuttal for that?
  21. South Korea might be modeling behavior for Trump and ilk.
  22. If the HR manager suggests you try cutting yourself as a coping mechanism it’s probably an indicator they have their own share of problems.
  23. Nah, but it does show that it’s possible to reject a Trump appointment
