Of course he is. What a deuchebag. Or scumbag. Or whatever... if it's related to contemptible he's the very definition of it...

The orders to proceed with the invasion have been given. It's starting. We will wake up tomorrow with reports of how far into Ukraine Russian troops and tanks have advanced. (Unless they start with artillery & bombing barrages first, and then troops...). Markets are going to crash tomorrow...

He won MVP in the Rising Stars with 18 pts, 7 'bounds, 9 dimes, 3 steals and 3 blocks (I think) so... definitely... relevant...!

PS: Grewe did work him over in that vid...

That's what it looks like. Plus one to him if he makes it all the way to the NHL and can do the same here with the Red Wings as on the videos you're popping up...

He looks like a whole lot more of Mantha than Ras... Now if his motivation level could be at 99% instead of Mantha's 29%...

PS: I know the rest of your post was extolling the virtues of 8 teams each in 4 divisions... Just picking on your typing skills...

Wait, What?

No comment.

The key takeaway: I would go further and say that the international community failed to protect Valieva and other athletes because it refused to deal seriously with Russia’s doping conspiracy. By not cracking down, the world allows Putin to carry on. This is the same signal the world sent Putin by refusing to deal seriously with his invasion of Georgia in 2008 and of Ukraine in 2014. The message that the Russian tyrant receives is that the international community is weak and feckless and he can do what he wants. Hence he is now mobilizing as many as 190,000 troops on the borders of Ukraine. An invasion could come any day. If the world does not respond more strongly to Russian transgressions in the future than it has in the past, Putin will be emboldened to commit even worse crimes — and so will other dictators.

Which is why we prefer an ADULT in the White House and not a TERRIBLE TWO's TANGERINE TODDLER: (this won't just be a challenge that Biden has met to-date, but a challenge both during Russian aggression and for the foreseeable future... meaning years...): https://www.yahoo.com/news/putin-pursues-grey-zone-tactics-203202677.html

Trilateral agreement between Poland, the UK, and Ukraine supporting Ukrainian independence. Not certain it's worth much... but it most likely gives domestic cover for Poland and the UK to do anything and everything possible to fight off Russian aggression in Ukraine. Again, uncertain what that means exactly but... they may be a pipeline of weapons and other stuff into Ukraine. https://www.yahoo.com/news/ukraine-poland-uk-agree-accord-210055710.html

Never really thought about napping much... My dad takes one every afternoon (he's 79 this year)... I think it does recharge the batteries... Hmmm, I think I could use one right about now...

Yeah, I get all that. . . . I'm just sayin'...

That will never happen. I would trade an agreement that Russia has Crimea - fait accompli. For Russia leaving Ukraine alone. Which includes getting their forces & equipment out of the Donbas.

The Russians fake fucking excuse to attack Ukraine. Further details: https://www.yahoo.com/news/last-piece-putin-puzzle-slots-180615525.html

This.

Well... I knew god was a fabrication at the age of 11 which is... quite a long while ago. "Man created god in his own image in order to make sense of all the shit that goes on in this world." Glad to see America finally starting to catch up. Europe already has, for the most part, quite a long time ago...

I'll throw out another harsh "sanction": The day Russian troops step onto any additional Ukrainian territory, have Putin declared a War Criminal. It's an unprovoked military attack bent on killing Ukrainians. War Criminal.

Here's another damning post about pitchers wRC+ (average 2000-2018 = -13):

Well, don't they do that anyways? Regardless?
