"Oh, he doesn't really mean that..." I've been listening the past 40 years. Mostly unintentionally. Yes... He does mean what he says. How can people be so damned stupid?

Postponed yet again...

Gold. Absolutely accurate. And completely contemptible and grotesque. And even more so... he has a dedicated following in the U.S. I am disgusted beyond all measurement.

Larkin takes that back 5-2

I think I've said something along those lines... Previously.

So you're a fascist?

Truth spoken by Tater...

This is closer to what I just mentioned...

I think it's the opposite issue. As you pointed out in later posts, English doesn't "genderize" nouns, just pronouns. "Latinx" is another lazy Americanism that instead of following proper Romance language form with Latina and Latino, gets lazy and says "Latinx" in order to avoid having to use either or both. That's what is upsetting to Latinos (I think), our laziness and inappropriateness.

Not only am I on board with that but impatience is slowly starting to creep in... When's the trade deadline? I think there's another month to go while I agonize...

If the question is: Can he win a game or two if necessary to keep us in the playoff picture or even win a playoff game... There's no way to answer that until this team has better talent. If we have a defense that can keep playoff-level teams to less than 20 points, and Boyle can score 21+ points against a playoff caliber defense, even if it doesn't look pretty, then yes. But, we're not at that point yet, where we can actually answer that question.... Everyone else above covered the other issues surrounding the backup QB...

On Jupiter? I'm good with that.

You're speaking to a real He-Man... so you need to speak in the same language. Otherwise, He-Man is not capable of understanding advanced language. I find speaking in Neanderthal usually does the trick: "Me big man. Me tough man. Me throw 60-pound rocks all day. Me tough man. You woman crybaby from stitch wound? Not tough man. Crybaby woman. Boohoo. Stitch wound and cry. Not tough man like me."

So.... Archie Bunker is full of shit? Yet again?

Actually it was right wing terrorists (Boogaloo and Proud Boys) DISGUISED as BLM that caused the violence. Again... White Trash Bigots causing murder and mayhem in the U.S. and you are COMPLETELY SILENT on that...

The only terrorists in the United States are White Trash Bigots who like to gun down kids and Democracy with their AR-15's.

On a related note... New Orleans rumor is that they'd trade their 1st rounder this year for a 3rd guy to pair up with Zion & Brandon Ingram... A) Would they take Grant and have Ingram-Grant-Williamson at SG-SF-PF? B) Grant to New Orleans for Satoransky-Jaxson Hayes and their 2022 1st rounder... who says no? Lastly, if they did say yes... and we end up with #2 and #6 (just as an example)... we're talking one of Banchero/ Jabari Smith paired with Kendall Brown or Jalen Duren. 2022 = Hayes-Cunningham-Bey-J Smith-J Duren with Stewart off the bench as 1st big man. OR: 2022 = Hayes-Cunningham-K Brown-J Smith-Stewart with Bey coming off the bench as 6th man. Is this better than 2021 lineup? Anyone interested in either of these 2022 lineups? Wanna trade Grant for NO's 2022 1st rounder? Most Importantly... Does N.O. say yes?

Yeah... Worst case scenario... I get it... With the biggest possible percent... But I know you take the pessimistic angle on all things so I'm going to go my usual opposite: Super-Duper Sunny-side Optimistic take and hope we can get a Top-2 pick (prefer #1) out of this year, with Banchero at the top of the list and the #2 option Jabari Smith. Holmgren is the Booby Prize. Please no Holmgren...

What are draft parameters? Finish worst = can fall no further than 4th? And 2nd worst finish = can fall no further than 5th? On that basis... yeah, they're on that track... (#5 pick or better... not going to stick to buddha's "worst-case scenario" plan...)

Empty netter seals the deal... Red Wings lose... no need to check the box score any more...

Complacent from watching Michigan complete and total futility?
