I watched the pregame show and they indicated that Michigan was playing. It was unclear WHO they are playing.

You're the poster CoH wishes he was ,and seemingly imagines himself to be...
I’ve been in private sittings with Mike Braun on multiple occasions. He’s a rock solid guy. He’s “real”.
Have you noticed the direction your party is headed? No free speech, harass, intimidate and prosecute your political enemies.
I do, that went automatically. Noticed it now when I read it . Didn’t then. Kind of like were always goes to we’re unless I catch it. Annoying.
Doesnt bother you the current President shouldnt be a dog catcher either though does it?
Says the absolute worst poster on this board...maybe besides Mas, and DANC. Ironically, you had a few good posts last week, to which I agreed and liked. But apparently you've gone back to being a troll. Typical.
The current president needs to be in a nursing home.
Hmmm . . . seems like I hit a nerve.
You OK? I fear you've had a coronary or stroke or something . . . .
So you know Warnock personally?
Why is he a "loon"? I haven't seen that aspect of him.
Enlighten me.
None of the abuse allegations against him is supported by any evidence. You're drinking Kool-aid . . . .
LMAO you post your bs with your head in the sand to all that's going on. I'm fine. I think you're an idiot. And the lack of self-awareness to pretend republicans eat it up when you read one book and take it as rote evidences what a hypocritical fool you are. Inflation. VIolent crime. Energy. Woke bs. Lockdowns. I'd vote for a thousand herschel walkers if it meant keeping dems from having a majority

I was wrong. He’s not a loon, he’s a piece of shit. I don’t like guys who abuse women. I’m sure she was lying😉
Wasn’t it your team who said believe all women? The rules change fast when they are on your team.
You'd like to tag me with all the negatives in your, and Danc's and Cray's heads, but you know those don't represent anything about me.
You're a fool . . . and have been since long before your "best posters" lists.
Thank you, but nah . . . CoH is very happy not to be me. Just ask him.
Lmao you old crank. You don't see what's going on around you. You are set in your ways and still believe the things you learned about government ages ago and refuse to open your eyes. All the shit the Dems F'd up the last two years and you are worried about Herschel. As the kids would say Flutter Shine describes you. You're cosmic 2.0 with your partisan ignorance. Stay off the soccer thread too. You know even less about that, which is to say absolutely nothing. An arrogant fool

Candidate Oz clearly did spend a lot of time in Philadelphia attending the University of Pennsylvania. A lot more time than Mrs. Clinton spent in NY. (Yale is in Connecticut). I don’t think native Hoosiers would call an IU alum a carpetbagger upon a return to Indiana for a political career.
Let’s see if he forms and runs a charitable foundation to jet set around the world too, if he wins.
“Oz, whose parents were Turkish immigrants, was raised in Wilmington, Delaware, where his father was a thoracic surgeon. After graduating from Harvard University (1982), he earned an M.D. degree from the University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine and an M.B.A. from the Wharton School of Business in 1986.

LOL. You got the old crank part right . . . at least about me.
Maybe about you too. N'est-ce pas?
Maybe so about the soccer too. That said, knowing and playing soccer in the US at my age - or your age - is nothing to brag about . . . maybe if you'd played football or basketball or baseball or hockey. But soccer? No.
Is that why I never see you on the football or basketball boards? One might think that someone with college sports experience might have something to add there . . . no?
Heck, we had maybe a week of soccer in PE, using a volleyball for a soccer ball. You know - small town Indiana in the 60s; only exposure to a world-popular sport. The World Cup wasn't televised in the US back then. USMNT? What's that? USWNT? Didn't exist. Girls ran track my senior year. Basketball (I remember seeing the then-world's tallest woman - Sandy Allen - play bball in our gym . . . she was terribly uncoordinated and slow) and gymnastics . . . sure, but nothing else.
In a pick up game in the old home town - after I'd gone back after grad school - I once had a former college soccer player - Stanford, IIRC - ask me where I'd been a goalkeeper. I just looked at him confused. Apparently I did instinctively what keepers are trained to do . . . close down an oncoming offensive threat by going out on it and getting low - you know, closing down the angles. I just applied what we learned in 7th and 8th grade basketball and football . . . it wasn't hard. Now ball control with the feet . . . that was hard . . . and I had no skills in that sense. Why would I have? I had no background, no coaching . . . the only coaching I ever got was when I was coaching my kids in rec soccer. What did we do to warm up? Two, then three lines . . . just like 7th grade basketball. Soccer is just basketball for the feet. The angles and passing lanes are the same . . . .
Yeagley (Jerry) was just getting the varsity program started at IU when I was there. They played soccer games after the football games, at the football stadium . . . and practiced in the field just north of the HPER building. Armstrong stadium? A whisper off in an office corner someplace.

again spouting off stuff you know nothing about. My age/class made the sweet sixteen of the World Cup losing 1-0 to Brazil. Beat the incredible Colombia side with valderamma and Escobar. And I know jerry and when he started the program. That’s not my age group

I thought we had a rule that all soccer and disc golf discussions were required to be in the soccer thread?
The only soccer discussion to be had in this thread should concern what Herschel Walker would have done on the soccer field in his prime. One hit and he kills Ronaldo. Literally kills him. No writhing around on the ground faking an injury; just stone cold dead.

Not to worry. Kangaroo Court fines of $5.00 have been delivered. We have it pretty well automated now, right out of their crypto accounts . . .
I agree with your first few sentences and think it explains a lot of older liberals who still think it’s the 70s. The best example is when TMP goes on his strange rants. I don’t think Cosmo is being serious. He referenced getting information from his local dog park several times. To be fair it was funny 😆
As, for your soccer put down. It’s actually a compliment
1994. Lalas' team. So what? You weren't on that team . . . that I know . . . you weren't good enough . . . and that I know.
I'm trying to be nice . . . but you keep doubling down on snake eyes.
Fair warning . . . you choose what you want - nice or ugly.
Yeah wishes was a poor choice of terms. I should have said "pretends"...
"Senator" Loeffler called- she wants her campaign talking point back...
"I don’t like guys who abuse women. I’m sure she was lying😉"
Are Republicans in GA even trying to use this in 2022, or is it just the crazies on this board trying to deflect from Herschel?
I honestly don't know, but it seems strange to try and resurrect a phony issue that didn't work in 2020-21 when the GOP nominee was a woman who hadn't been charged with abuse, or putting a loaded gun to a girlfriend's head or admittedly stalking a guy and wanting to shoot someone he was involved in a road range incident with. So nobody believed it in 2021 when his opponent was a woman who owned a WNBA franchise, but wasn't crazy and you guys think it makes sense to use in 2022 to elect someone who is (crazy)?
Was she lying? I think most people concluded that she likely was. He went to pick up his kids and they got in a verbal altercation, and while backing out she suddenly claimed he had ran over her foot? When the police and EMTs arrived she claimed her foot was hurt, yet she didn't want them to examine her foot?
When they did, they found no bruising or any indication of damage. Three investigators at the scene doubted her claims. And after Tucker ran the story with some video from the scene, even his ex-wife expressed her dismay over the GOP trying to inject it into the campaign.
" In an exclusive statement to the AJC, Ms. Warnock expressed frustration that the incident has been thrust into the Senate race.
“My children and I have no place in the politics of this election,” she said. “I thank our community for the support and prayers we have received this year, and ask the broader public to respect our family’s privacy.”
And that was Dec 2020, two weeks before the runoff...
So this is the original story from Dec 2020, after Tucker tried to make it a campaign issue. Anything new to add?
In final week, GOP resurfaces Warnock dispute with then-wife
In the final stretch of Georgia’s runoff campaign, Republicans have launched an attack ad highlighting police footage from the aftermath of a dispute between Senate candidate Raphael Warnock and his then-wife over her accusation that he ran over her foot during an argument in March.

Yeah, I've thought about your explanation of older liberals before, and I would change your phrasing to "who remember the 70s" . . . and the 60s and to a degree the 50s. There's been a lot of damage to the country over the last 42 years, mostly from tax cuts . . . for the sake of tax cuts. And those tax cuts have come at the expense of the deficit and debt. We've borrowed money to "pay" for them.I agree with your first few sentences and think it explains a lot of older liberals who still think it’s the 70s.

What I hear from younger folks is stuff like "less government" and "less taxes" as if it's a birthright without explaining what they're wanting to do, why, and what the trade-offs are. That's a discussion worth having, and I'm happy to have it . . . so long as we don't have the mindless sloganeering that most on this board are prone to . . . like McMurtry.
I'm glad you hit Mc and his crypto account. He brought soccer into this when he told me that I was to stay out of the soccer thread. He did it.
As for me, I'm an old fart . . . my investments - meager as they are - aren't in crypto, not even snarlcakes' Bitcoin.
Yes sloganeering like defunding the police increasing violent crime, free cheese raising inflation, masking leading to school issues, on and on. That sloganeering? That sloganeering that is absent from the drivel you must read?

Yes i was in the national pool upon the invitation of bora. i also played in the NCAA D1 tournament back when there was only 28 teams. i was also drafted in the mls via columbus combines. and The year prior I played in the highest professional league in the US. Hell I still play outdoor on a team with two of the guys from that world cup team. What on earth have you ever done in sports other than be a blowhard about same. No D1. No pro. That I know....

Ok . . . you picked ugly. Ugly you get.
I've observed your posts. You chase being popular. You're nothing but a nose counter. You stick your finger in the air to see which way the wind is blowing. That's why you're here 24 x 7, responding to my posts and cosmos' posts and IU Hickory's posts, trying to rack up "reaction scores".
The bottom line is that you're a failed lawyer who thinks - wants so much - to be thought of as a successful business executive. You're not. You know how I know this? You're here all the time, and successful business executives have better things to do.
Lawyer couldn't get out of it quickly enough. If that's failed. Sure. I got to where I hated it. Who gives a shit.
Business - it's simple. We sell seasonal products and I have a team of us doing it. What is success? It pays the bills and requires minimal effort. Does it make a 100 million a year? Of course not. It doesn't need to. It took a long time to figure this out. Now we have a cushy gig we can do until we die that is growing. And trust me starting a business from scratch and having it even turn a profit is infinitely more difficult than graduating from some third rate law school and being a cog at an anonymous law firm somewhere for 40 years.
Reaction Score/Rankings were all a joke. Humor. And that cuts right to you doesn't it. No good at sports. An anonymous lawyer like 980,000 out there in the country who went to some shitty safety law school (Not IU Law) and is a know it all blowhard that no one likes and is jealous of people who people do like. you probably never had the balls to venture out and try somehting different. and you have the reaction score you have because you are a blowhard who isn't clever, is a drip, and who doesn't know shit but acts like he does. A turd to put it bluntly.

Other than blowing out my left knee twice - once in junior high - and tearing my rotator cuff, nothing. No D1, no pro.
But I know you want desperately to be seen as a successful athlete. Soccer? In 1994? Really? Nobody had ever heard of Lalas, and nobody can name another member of that squad . . . except you. Who cares?
BTW, you might want to wipe that spittle off your chin.
LOL again evidencing what a blowhard you are. Oh yes "i blew out my knee" but would have been awesome in high school. Okay AL Bundy. Lalas played for AC Milan. Brian McBride played in the Premier League. Sorber played in the Mexican League. Reyna Played in Italy. Tab Ramos. Two of the goalies played in the Premier League.
This is you tho. Opining about stuff you know nothing about but pretending you do. Flutter shine...

Lol…I know it’s foreign to you, but some people value their time and money and don’t appreciate the government taking it from them.
Anyway, the reason they are pissed off is because your generation lived beyond their means and the younger generation is going to have to pay for it with higher inflation, higher taxes, less growth, and fewer government programs. Not to mention the instability that comes from the extremely high levels of debt and increase cost; specifically energy, food, and housing.
If you really think the issue is tax cuts, it’s not worth my time having a discussion. We’re not going to agree on anything.[/url]

Yep. But it started with the WWII generation. We trusted them when they said "trust us".
I don't think that the issue is tax cuts, but they're part and parcel with what ails us. Another issue is the "I'm worth it" or "I'm entitled" attitudes generally prevailing in the US.
BTW, much of that debt you refer to - at least national debt - does come from tax cuts along with wars, all put on the national credit card.
