  1. sheesh pistons, just when it cant get any worse.
  2. Apparently the lions may not have enough healthy players to play this game..
  3. what did people think biden was going to be? he's been fine. made the important call on afghanistan. inflation isnt his fault and they're trying - finally - to do something about infrastructure. he has to craft legislation that can get passed by sinema and manchin in the senate while trying to make the left wing of the democratic house happy. that's a tall order. and heck, the economy is doing well right now all things considered. they've got another year to get anything done before they get waxed in the midterms.
  4. more concerning to dabo is the allowance of nfi money. now clemson cant ridiculously cheat and pay more than everyone else, which is how dabo got his recruiting advantages.
  5. charging them is ridiculous.
  6. when we talk about making the playoffs, this will be what happens. a four or five game series where we get obliterated.
  7. i swear to god zadina couldnt score in a whorehouse with a $100 bill tied to his face.
  8. sounds like ucla might be coming open soon...
  9. chas lives in illinois, i was just saying his state hasnt "unilaterally disarmed."
  10. up to 3 years in prison for each count.
  11. not in illinois!
  12. what do you think of trudeau?
  13. its such a silly thing. if he had just owned up to it at ANY point instead of being completely cocky and insisting that he was being wronged by the state it would have gone away. but once the prosecutor let him off with nothing after the obama people lobbied her to do so, he came out and was still cocky about it. he really made the prosecutor's life difficult. that's when everyone turned on her and insisted there be a trial. of course, the prosecutor could have just not given him special treatment and it would have ended right there too. he'll get probation or something. maybe a little jail time but i wouldnt expect anything serious. unless they want to martha stewart him and make an example out of him.
  14. apparently he's not done... ... ... with dinner.
  15. someone tell dc313.
  16. Jussie found guilty on 5 of 6 counts. lol. what a joke this whole thing was. how obvious was it that this idiot was lying?
  17. it most certainly is true about loans. they have guaranteed money from the government. to a certain degree, michigan will charge in tuition what they can get. on the one hand, the avilability of loans means more kids can afford school, otoh it drives up the price because schools know that money is there. what's the solution? i dont know. you could ask schools not to be so greedy, or for them to trim their ridiculous bureaucracy, but we all know that's not going to happen.
  18. its not that they like him that's important, its that they havent quit on him. we'll see if they quit now that theyve won one game and got the monkey off their back.
  19. And now the lawsuits begin! Fieger filing a "$100 millon" lawsuit against the school district and its employees.
  20. i dont know about campbell as a play caller. some of his calls have left a lot to be desired imo. that said, i think the lack of talent has a lot to do with that. i think they were fortunate that the vikings gave them that game. however, they are also unfortunate they havent won 3 or 4 games already.
  21. i think they'll start losing again very soon. honestly, theyre probably a better TEAM without green. he's selfish. he has a ton of upside but a lot to learn about stuff that cade seems to already know.
  22. houston is in a rebuild too and they've won 7 straight.
  23. well, this is different from me arguing that they should use their $17 billion endowment to defray some or most of the tuition costs, but yes, i agree with your premise (or what i took to be your premise) that costs have exploded. and you know why: administration. they have classes taught by adjuncts (or TAs) to whom they pay nothing while paying the advisor to the assistant dean for diversity and inclusion in the dental school 100k per year. THAT'S what your massive increase in tuition costs has gone to sustain: the enormous bureaucracy that has grown up around these universities. and i take your point on the gop "starving the beast" but its more than that. the beast of pensions has grown exponentially and is pushing out a lot of money that would have been spent on things like education because the state refuses to pay for them by increasing its revenues and refuses to cut any expenditure that might result in less pork for them to hand out. and that's as much (or more) a democrat problem with their love of expensive public sector unions as it is a gop problem of not wanting to increase taxes to pay for their previous spending sprees.
  24. what's the word on seider?
