I read your post re Harris. It’s an interesting historical question and off the top of my head vps have a poor running record but I think the salient part that’s being omitted in your post in comparison to prior elections is Harris’ coronation without a primary.

to finish first team all B1G?

Mgbako has come out hot, Rice has a outsiders chance. Ballo if he averages 13-10-2.5?

One suggestion, guys. There is a wide range of possible outcomes at the 'shoe this weekend and Saturday's game, for me, is the toughest pick since the UCLA game. I know there's a temptation, particularly this week, to go with "my heart says [Score A] but my head says [Score B]." Your call as to whether to go with your head or your heart, but try to go with just one score prediction. Let's have some fun with this and see who among us is Nostradamus.

Here's my prediction:

IU 27
OSU 23

Go Hoosiers!

Covers a lot of ground including topics we've debated for years on here...

Now it makes total sense. You can't argue with this logic.

Great troll

Sadly, I think this is just the start.

It’s gonna take a few more years. To fully build back up from Archie. Indiana has the right man for the job!

Nearly $35 trillion.


Net international trading position….nearly $20 trillion in the red


“The trade deficit is a statistic with little relation to a country’s prosperity….the vast majority of trade economists do not see the U.S. trade deficit as a ‘problem’ to be solved.”

With Putin's announcement that he'd send troops into Donetsk and Luhansk, and with reports tonight that Russian troops are already rolling through the region, Russia has officially and openly invaded Ukrainian territory. Of course, they were probably already there, anyway, but now there is no room for denial.

This thread is for the foreign policy wonks who got crowded out of the previous thread by the predictable political bullshit. None of that in this thread, please. Let's keep this one focused.

Opened up their season this weekend in small college basketball hall of fame classic with games of 122 and 116 points scored. This guy has taken two programs to the championship game in division 2 and plays a very exciting modern day style of basketball. His coaching record for his career is over .800 winning percentage. In my opinion it's either Schertz of Saint Louis or him once Buckner gets out of Dolsons way.

Such a dumpster fire.

Another Afghanistan is occurring....

Ukraine is staring at the abyss, the grim consequences of US overreach: Societal disintegration, economic ruin and the dissolution of it's government. It's not just governments that crumble; it's the lives of millions who, after investing their hopes in Western promises, are left to pick up the pieces of shattered societies. The Democrats hubris will have exacted a catastrophic toll, not only on the US credibility as a Global leader,

I think most of us knew this was coming. Another 11-9 or 10-10 season. Wash rinse repeat.

Here you guys (looking mostly at mcm66) go. Your very own thread.


Hell, you can even pin it.

Wow

Got cooked and fell over in his first two defensive trips today.

Got the ball handed to him on the next play. Dont let that fool you into thinking he did something good.

Amazing. Too good to only put it on the Ukraine war thread

I am surprised I made it through the complete show tonight about the CFB rankings. I will not go into detail all we heard. Obvious there is national bias against IU. BUT one thing was appreciated by those 4 clowns when talking to the SMU coach and was NEVER brought up with they were dicing up IU like chopped liver. Each team had something in common.

When asked .. the SMU coach mentioned he had an older team. I cannot remember the exact record he said but that is not the point ... that group of older SMU players won a lot and play confident.

Does that sound familiar? It should because Coach Cig mentioned it yesterday when asked ... older team and our coaches have won 24 of their last 25 games. Those of course count the games at JMU played.

But the 4 ESPN clowns never brought up that fact about IU, only went on and on about a weak schedule. You would think the B1G was ranked lower than the Mountain West listening to them. Galloway can go f*** himself but at least McFarland squeezed in "If IU loses a close game they are in the playoffs".... IMO IU wins this game.

The ESPN clowns will be speechless next week. I like what the UM AD said though ... "we watch games and what takes place on the field." ... but two of the ESPN clowns seem to want SOS to count more than what happens on the field !!!!

Screw 'em all and just win out. One game at a time, coaches and players that are use to winning .. and apparently have the ability to shut out all the noise. Even dumbass Galloway said IU had to keep their QB from getting hurt otherwise it is FSU all over again.

In 3 games this season, young man is putting up some sick stats for Tulane.


19 ppg
11 rpg
11-19 from 3
Only 1 turnover committed.


Pretty amazing, especially the shooting.

And why?

And no, stadium cave-in is not a choice.

Just my opinions - why Harris lost to Trump - in order of impact:

1. Transgender issue - Demand for/support for transgender education in elementary schools in Florida and elsewhere/penises in female sports and female locker rooms/"Harris supports free transgender surgery for inmates" commercial
2. Cost-of-living
3. 8 years of calling everyone deplorable, immoral, Nazis, fascists, racists and garbage
4. Call for taxing unrealized capital gains - another poke in the eye of the union family who now watches their 401k just like a 1%er
5. The Fredo Syndrome - "we're smart"

Just my opinions - why Democrats think Harris lost to Trump:

1. Identity politics addiction + No. 3 above - "she is a black female in a racist, misogynist nation full of Nazis and fascists and garbage"
2. Vote fraud
3. No legitimate reason

Just watched them lose at home by double digits to UDM. Flipped it over in the second half, and this is the only one I've watched so far. They lack talent, and at least tonight, can't shoot. Tough to watch and Lewis was a frustrated dude.
