    President Holloway to Yale?

    As someone who is half-Jewish, has lots of Jewish family, and tons of Jewish friends, let me be the first to say that your blatant and transparent efforts to leverage the suffering of the families of murdered and kidnapped Israelis for perceived political gain is twisted, perverse, pathetic...

    Quitting on your team at the end of season does not help your chances of landing elsewhere

    I’m no expert on CBB eligibility rules, but just did a quick scan on the web and it seems that, yeah, 17 games will pretty likely burn the year of eligibility. Given that, I can’t come up with any self-serving reason Mag would practice and then sit out games. So we’re left with either injury...

    Quitting on your team at the end of season does not help your chances of landing elsewhere

    Yeah, unless he avoided playing enough to make a case for an extra year of eligibility, then skipping games as a means of upping his portal value seems counterproductive. Did he, in fact, skip enough games to get an extra season of eligibility? I have no idea.

    OT: Electric vehicles

    I’d argue that both the cars you cited have a weight problem. 992 GT3: 3199 lbs

    President Holloway to Yale?

    Countless back room deals were quietly worked out. They would briefly piss off the electorate because the deals often appeared to break campaign promises made by various members of congress. But people mostly understood that, while campaigning was all about ideological pandering, actual...

    President Holloway to Yale?

    I am smart enough to know that extremist liberals are every bit as complicit as extremist conservatives in creating the political environment in which so many otherwise good people can become convinced to do something so obviously self-destructive as to nominate and elect a person as unfit to...

    President Holloway to Yale?

    Yep, it’s a real problem. A national security issue. Used to be that people in congress, especially in the senate, would play up partisanship for cameras, and then once the cameras were turned off, Rs and Ds would get together for meals in Georgetown or wherever, enjoying each other’s...

    President Holloway to Yale?

    This is what I’ve been saying for many many years, as you know. Both sides suck. Both sides put politics ahead of country. Both sides lie to their respective bases. Both sides engage in nonstop hypocrisy, hyperbole, fear-mongering, selective fact-finding, demonization, disingenuous...

    OT: Need help with noise in the wall

    This is true. I've hooked up some UHD video cameras to capture them copulating from multiple angles. Then I post the videos to the dark web where I'm making millions selling the videos. I plan to start livestreaming it, which should increase revenues. Mouse porn is a big thing. Normally...

    President Holloway to Yale?

    I think Bac went to RU, although I could be mistaken. If not, nothing is stopping him from going back to school to get the requisite education and then actually taking some kind of positive action on this or any of his persecution-complex-borne complaints. But, like all politically obsessed...

    Totally agree Pike was unhappy. But we don't know the exact composition of his unhappiness, right? We don't know that he was specifically unhappy with Mag, versus just unhappy at the situation with Mag being unable to play. Or if the unhappiness was almost entirely about other stuff besides...

    Quitting on your team at the end of season does not help your chances of landing elsewhere

    When I was young, I often played through minor hamstring, calf or groin injuries, and through minor lower back injuries. When doing that, I could be good enough to go for several games and then suddenly tweak something and have to sit out for a while. Happened all the time. I can't say for...

    OT: Look out, here comes some free advice…

    I had read about that. Also, some manufacturers are playing around with the idea of producing fake engine and exhaust sounds. I'll reserve final judgement about that stuff till I see what evolves. But I'm skeptical that I would find it the same as the real thing. Seems to me that it would...

    President Holloway to Yale?

    Bush Sr. is my favorite modern day president. Highlight intelligent, thoughtful, well-prepared for the job, relatively moderate, willing to do things he thought right for the country despite them being politically unpopular with his voting base. He used the military wisely, and refused to...

    Was Pike upset? And if so, why? Nobody knows but Pike. Everybody else is assuming it based on inference, which is not the same as fact.

    OT: Look out, here comes some free advice…

    I mostly agree about that, almost never bothered me and I find it keeps me from being totally bored by the traffic. But the 2011 car I still have is a Mazdaspeed 3 with a clutch that is excessively stiff with an excessively small engagement point. And the tune it’s running, despite it being...

    Quitting on your team at the end of season does not help your chances of landing elsewhere

    I agree with this. I was pretty surprised that Pike would discuss a players health status the way he did. OTOH, none of the things Pike said, from which some people are inferring Mag was fine and boycotting the games, actually prove that inference. They’re suggestive, sure. But not...

    Right? If we have to speculate, and in the absence of proof to the contrary, why not speculate in a way that casts a person in a good light? Given a choice of how to be towards others, why not choose kindness? That’s my choice, most of the time. Others are obviously free to choose differently.

    President Holloway to Yale?

    I thought you were for freedom of speech. Nothing is stopping you from getting a teaching job and indoctrinating students however you wish. Politicians indoctrinate voters. Are we gonna make them stop doing that too? Corporations indoctrinate all of us with their advertising. We gonna...

    President Holloway to Yale?

    So? This has been more or less the case since before we were born, no? What is your proposal for how to change it? Are colleges being bombarded with applications from conservative professors but refusing to hire any? You want hiring quotas by political ideology?
