Louisville Dodges Another Bullet

https://www.wdrb.com/news/update-ma...cle_48379ad0-9e0b-11ec-a52f-4f2d2470fa67.html


First story report was “cops received call about suspicious car - one cop approaches - sees person in car - calls for back up - knocks on car window - pistol raised by occupant - shots fired - nobody hurt”

Above is the second story - cops see car - 2 approach - knock on car window - occupant raises pistol - shots fired - nobody hurt.”

Questions:

Did he know they were cops?
How and why can they approach WITHOUT him knowing?

Why does a guy raise his gun at cops? Suicide by cop?
How do they miss?


FUI - this isn’t a crime area. It’s St. Matthews - across a creek from a huge hospital and medical complex, and across the street from a middle and upper-middle neighborhood with higher-end apartments/condos and homes.

2022

So I have yet to see joe endorse anyone. When will he start endorsing dems toughting all his accomplishments? I mean in 2018 trump was by now and picked up a few senate seats. Lost the house by about an average margin for first term presidents. I think obama lost 64 seats trump 40. Clinton lost 54 seats.

Friday's game with Illinois has been moved up to a noon (ET) start...

With rain expected later on in the day and into the evening hours, they were forced to move it up. The game time for Sat continues to be 2 p.m. (ET) and 1 p.m. (ET) for Sunday.

Updated look at Trayce Jackson-Davis' draft stock

Jackson-Davis moved up to No. 46 in Bleacher Report's mock draft by Jonathan Wasserman.

He is anywhere from No. 31 to undrafted.

I still think he get's selected in the 50's. He seems to fit what a lot of NBA teams take in that range.

The Holocaust: Required Instruction in Public Schools

Tomorrow is Holocaust Remembrance Day.

I'm linking Florida legislation that was passed in the '90s, requiring public schools to provide instruction on "the history of the Holocaust, the systematic, planned annihilation of European Jews and other groups by Nazi Germany, a watershed event in the history of humanity, to be taught in a manner that leads to an investigation of human behavior, an understanding of the ramifications of prejudice, racism and stereotyping, and an examination of what it means to be a responsible and respectful person, for the purposes of encouraging tolerance of diversity in a pluralistic society and for nurturing and protecting democratic values and institutions."

Would similarly worded legislation have a chance of enactment today in Florida and many other states? Too "woke?" Are laws like this at risk of being repealed?

A Holocaust survivor spoke to my kids and classmates in their (not Florida) public school a few years back. The discussion left an enormous impression on my Christian kids, and that's a good thing. As evidenced by my second link, this topic needs to be part of the national discourse, perhaps now more than ever.

Last I heard he was playing linebacker and wasn't high on the depth chart. I heard lots of good things about this kid's intangibles, bummer to see him go. If I had to put an optimistic spin on it, maybe the reason was Kaiden Turner passed him on the depth chart, which means he impressed the coaches in camp. That's total speculation but that's the most logical reason for a kid that seemed to really enjoy his time at IU. 9/10 times when people seem content with their school and choose to transfer it's because of PT.

  • Poll
Super league

Would an SEC or B1G school rather...

  • make the most money possible, even if it meant leveling the playing field with Clemson, USC, etc

  • keep feeding the beast, make less money, but be in the undisputed top 28 of funding and create gap


Results are only viewable after voting.

My friends and I were discussing the merits of forming a Super League for football that includes the SEC, B1G, and select teams from the PAC 12, ACC, and Big 12. I stated that the SEC and B1G would be dumb to do that because they have such a financial and strategic advantage from the current playoff system and current/imminent media deals. They contended that schools would be driven to have more money total rather than the most money (though a smaller number) relative to their competitors. I argued that it would be better for them to raid coaches and players from the "lesser leagues" that have fewer revenue resources.

Thoughts?
