I might -- if time allows -- start a novel about the Totinos SNL commercial characters and how the Kristen Stewart character (Michael's) and the Vanessa Bayer character (Hobby Lobby) have a meet cute in the parking lot when Kristen's Mini Cooper accidentally hits Vanessa's Honda Odyssey mini-van. Kristen needs to get some paint for her project for her Gender History seminar at the university and Vanessa was looking for some devotional art to help her deal with the frustrating feeling that there might be something lacking in her marriage. Its basically going to be "Overboard" but I don't know which character will suffer the amnesia and be manipulated by whom. Its shooting fish in a barrel to have the conservative character see how her world could be so much bigger if she just stopped listening to talk radio, etc. But, might be more amusing to see Kristen Stewart go into the world of Mega churches, MAGA, et.al., and see how she emerges.

As is chik fil a

Just got done shopping at Michael's arts and crafts and Hobby Lobby which in our town are in the same shopping center. Michael's was filled with hot, complicated women with active minds. They likely paint or do whatever sort of art as a way to deal with the dynamics of their relationships or psychodramatic upbringings. Hobby Lobby filled with endomorphic Karens who have lots of word art in their homes in which they keep for their husbands in law enforcement who like her to keep quiet during the game.

Or, of course Michigan championship tainted by some bs

I await it with interest.

Awful. Man...that totally stinks.

The actual press release https://collegefootballplayoff.com/news/2021/12/22/covid-policy.aspx

This all seems very surreal. But, Covid has been surreal. https://mgoblog.com/mgoboard/cfp-committee-semifinals-will-not-be-rescheduled-if-team-can't-play-it-forfeits

Covid may actually put this game at risk

Is this their starter? https://www.si.com/college/georgia/news/jt-daniels-tests-positive-for-covid-19 guess not. I gather they thought he might get playing time in the CFP game.

No cause of death? I’ve read a couple of the initial stories and not seen the cause yet.

Very weird how this broke down. If it means that the teams on the list you identified don't care about revenues overseas or don't want to travel ever overseas...well, I can understand that.

My Dad voted for Biden after a lifetime of voting for GOP. He stated, that he is glad Manchin is out there to protect the interests of those who hated Trump but don't want Bernie style populism. Its a perspective that I think is out there.

LA Rams... Can we play games in Hitler's Germany or Stalin's Soviet Union? No, ok, lets go celebrate the genocide of the Uighers!

Were they not supposed to play games in Toronto at some point?

and, Shame on the GD Rams.

I also don't see other step-child team, Washington Team Football.

Did anyone see this thing about Home Market Areas for NFL teams among various regions of the World. NFL announces international home marketing area teams and markets Anyone who wonders if the NFL Detroit Lions are step children...we are step-children to the league.

Biden should start exercising some executive power on the coal industry now

I loved when Torii Hunter had the Tigers doing this. http://25.media.tumblr.com/2f06f6f04751121cbbbb4f6cc5f7a79f/tumblr_muhjtaEZGW1rrjtcto1_400.gif

I would say i’m more of a NeverTrump than a TDS type. it’s not deranged to want sane, good governance by a person who doesn’t routinely pay off his whores and consorts with Russian mafia.

Premise fail? if College sports are judged on being a feeder system for the pros… NCAA is doing good at providing talent for NFL, MLB, NHL, NBA i don’t know how well it does providing talent for MLS but probably lousy at providing talent for UEFA and whatever league controls cricket

What we cannot do is reward Putin for electing Trump, Brexit and his general malign activity. He must be punished in the extreme for any transgression.

REFORGER 1988 is what led to West Germany becoming Germany in 1990.
