I have watched both speeches and they are quite similar in their boldness and willingness to call out the enemy. And frankly, your hysterical reaction after Biden's are similar to a lot of Reagan's Dem critics at the time (ie. That madman is gonna get us into a war). Nonetheless, you seem committed to continuing to say that we are seen as a laughing stock, despite the fact that NATO is now more united than any time since at least 9/11. I'm sorry, but in all of your posts, you just seem to start from a conclusion and work backwards, rather than taking in the facts and coming to a conclusion. There's not a single issue that happens where I do not know what your position will be the moment it happens. It's hard to take that seriously... maybe try coming to your own conclusions based on the facts and not just providing a boiler plate response to everything. Otherwise, it seems like it would be difficult to have a good faith discussion.

Everything I post is true. We have a difference in political opinion. That doesn't mean what I post is not true. It might mean that you don't want to believe it.

Whoever is running this country. It sure isn't Biden since he's admitted he's taking orders and not giving them. Give me a break on the Putin BS. I'm more patriotic than many of you here and would never side with the commies or anyone hurting our country, including those invading our southern border or Islamic terrorists that want to eliminate us. I've seen comments here supporting those people so don't lecture me on patriotism.

I'm working at it Sue, really I am.

I am mainly into jam bands so I judge music almost solely on the live performance. I find most studio albums uninteresting and I’ll also rarely ever see a band that puts on the same pre produced show every night. Foo Fighters is one exception as they absolutely destroy live. I’ve seen them 4 different times with each better than the time before. They never mail it in. Great band. I hope they continue on but I wouldn’t be surprised to see them call it quits.

Possibly better placed in the guns thread but... Trigger discipline is a thing. When you see it you note it. When you don't see it...run or get behind something strong enough to prevent the bullet from hitting you.

Maybe this is an ignorant question to ask, but would Xi allow Putin to use a tactical nuke and disrupt things in the global order that catastrophically? I ask about Xi because it seems fairly clear that China is Russia's biggest customer outside of Europe and the disruption that Putin using a tactical nuke would cause to world economics and energy markets, including China's, would almost certainly be colossal in size.

Tigers draw 1st blood - 2 out single by Willi-I don't-need-no-E Castro and a double by Candelario. Appropriately enough to the thread, Hill and Reyes both made outs to start the game.

There’s no “e” in Willi. Oh, wait a minute. Now I see what you’re doing.

You are so blinded by your anti Trump derangement you wouldn't know the truth. There have been many false statement made by you and others on this site that you folks thinks is true because your liberals sources wouldn't lie to you. Most posters here have tunnel vision and because they can't and refuse to see any other side their own. A example of this when I bring up the mental health of Biden. Replies to my comments are often "you aren't a doctor how would you know." All someone has to do is watch him speak and you can tell he has problems. Instead of admitting there's an issue its better for the liberal opinion to bury their heads in the sand and deny, deny, deny. I'm also not alone on this. Many polls have shown over half the country question his health and it was even asked of him at his press conference a few weeks ago.

I think you are overrating Reagan. He was no Willie Mays. Maybe Mickey Stanley.

It's awesome how conservatives celebrate Putin as a strong stable genius while he's running his piehole about using nuclear weapons, then caca their underoos when Biden says Putin shouldn't be in power. And then they act like they're way more patriotic than everyone else at the same time and also everyone else isn't.

If Trump said the same thing as Putin, you'd be saying it was a strong speech. Guaranteed.

More than 45 years since the Fidrych MNF game vs the Yankees where my parents held my 9th birthday party for my friends in the lower deck in left. Still one of the most memorable days of my life. I spend half an hour or so every year on June 28 thinking about it.

LOL at Biden "talking about removing Putin" and also being weak to Putin at the same time. Imagine making those arguments simultaneously and also calling other people trolls.

You're kidding, right? Move past the best regular season game I've ever seen? Even without the fights it was a great game, but with the fights? No, I will relive this one forever.

Interesting thread

I’m baking you a cake… because of your resolve. 😁🎂

Only if Biden raises it a notch with a Mama joke.

This kinda gets to something I have seen all the time prior to this war... the almost standard assumption that every piece of leverage is asymmetrical in a way that advantages Russia. Place sanctions on Russia? Can't do that, they'll pull Russian gas that the Germans et. al need (despite the fact that if Germans et. al aren't buying gas, Russia doesn't make any money). Give weapons to Ukraine? Can't do that, we risk Putin shooting off a nuke (despite MAD / our own nukes). It's almost like the entire world gaslit themselves into thinking this guy is impregnable and cannot be stood up to. And even as we have learned over the past month that he's not, some still seem to be doing this. He can still do a lot of bad, but people need to stiffen their spines a little more. The past month has told us that he's not a God.

You apparently are ignoring two key points: 1) This appears to amount to Vice President Biden seemingly going to one dinner. 2) The second involved a business venture that Hunter tried to set up ... So this amounts to Joe Biden apparently refusing some deal Hunter tried to enmesh him in. In other words: Much Ado about NOTHING.

I understand. In the grand scheme of things, its something for Biden Derangement Syndrome types to latch onto but isn't the end of the world. In the grand scheme of things, he's done a good job... the world is united (ie. not laughing) in opposition to the dictator. We are giving the Ukrainians what they need to fight back. We are hitting back with sanctions that bite. Given that, I can live with the occasional rhetorical mistake. And I dont think anything that Biden has said to date has done anything to push us closer to a world war...

Dan and Jim talking about how bad Phillies are and ripping current pitcher for going so high in the draft. Then moved discussion to Baltimore (tomorrows game) and how bad they look to be.

torkelson's plate discipline is tremendous in such a young hitter. 8 pitches in that at bat (walk), all pretty close. He took every pitch out of the zone, swung (and fouled off) every pitch in the zone.

It took a little doing and a new account, apparently there has been some changes but MERRY BEATDOWN DAY!

I wonder if Shinma will find us today? Always nice to hear from him on this day.

Not sure on Cade specific passes. But they are shooting 34% on 3PTA's when the defender was more than 6 feet away. It is the worst percentage in the entire league. The NBA keeps a nice stat called Potential Assists. Cade is just over 10 per game. They don't have them ranked but it looks like that puts him around 25th or 30th in the league in that number.

The only way to stop a bad guy with a gun is..... aw man

Its another case where Biden is saying something that 80+% of Americans are thinking, but that as leader of the free world, you need to stay above it. That said, I dont know that it's a massive error either. I dont think it changes much in the grand scheme of things.

I see no issue with what he said. It's obvious Putin shouldn't be in power.

They based the order on bpi rankings that's why we picked 5th. They had Chet, Smith, Paulo and Ivey going 1-4.
