  1. Having been very badly bullied growing up in school, I do think Trump is a Nelson Muntz like character and a bully. A guy who gets off on deriding and degrading others, but also isn't terribly smart. That said, my experience isn't that bullies will backdown if you tell them no and/or fight back against them. Sure, some will do that. But in my experience, many bullies will just get twice as mad and become more lethal the next time you cross them. They'll torture you until you hit a breaking point and cannot function anymore. Trump isn't a smart person in-terms of book smarts or general intellect. He's a complete dolt in that regard. He does however have a certain people smarts and understands marketing and selling to some degree, though not in a way he could articulate coherently. Many of the people around Trump are not that smart either, but they understand bullying and submission strategy to a point. They are using him and manipulating him to do bad things and creating lasting damage to our country's democracy and democratic institutions. They are the bullies that come back twice as strong, twice as vengeful, and twice as determined to get revenge on you for standing up to them. It's partly why we see Trump himself and those around him acting so aggressive towards people they view as hostile to their agenda, i.e. the fake new media, academia, scientists, Democrats, etc. It's also why you see them throwing so many different things at the wall in hopes that something will stick and that you can't possibly stay caught up with all the chaos, craziness, and rapid fire changes they are enacting. They are torturing democracy, our institutions, and decent people until we hit our breaking point. Much like many bullies out there.
  2. Of course TeSlaa looked explosive against other rookies. Let's see how he does running routes against real competition and getting muscled or jammed at the line by CBs and Safeties. That said, I'd rather hear good news about him than bad, so this is encouraging.
  3. One of the more modern design NHL logos I have always liked is the original San Jose Sharks logo design from their inaugural season.
  4. It looks like a create-a-team logo from NHL 2011. I am a sucker for logos that have a more classical, less modern look to them. I don't care for the team name font in the design either. I'm no graphics guy though, so what do I know.
  5. There is no accountability for police in America. They can do and act as they please, including beating a man to death on camera.
  6. Are we the only team who has never moved up in a draft lottery in the lottery era(
  7. What a great, exciting game. A comeback by Winnipeg with under 2 minutes left in the game, a very last second possible goal, and a Double OT thriller with the Jets winning it in the end. That was a fun watch.
  8. The Athletic hated our draft. Draft grades for guys who have never seen the field at the pro level mean squat. But an F, that's still way too harsh, even if it's meaningless in the end.
  9. Mike Green fell into his lap twice . . . I know, I know.
  10. I have never really, fully bought into the whole "Dementia Don" notion that Donald Trump has dementia. I think it is dangerous when non-medical professionals sit behind a CPU screen and try to diagnose an individual with something as serious as dementia or alzheimer's. I think Trump just isn't a very smart human being and that gets intermixed with the fact that he might be a malignant narcissist. Again, I'm not a medical professional, so I can't say for certain if Trump is a diagnosed malignant narcissist. He sure seems like one though.
  11. I'm big into the storytelling that comes from the singer-songwriter type artists. In particular, a lot of fantastic singer-songwriter type artists that fit into the Americana, Country, Folk genres and subgenres. I love the music that has that more folk-country hybrid sound that crosses country instrumentation with folk songwriting styles. The sounds of artists like Jason Isbell, John Moreland, Mandolin Orange, and more. lf you enjoy great songwriting and this type of sound than I think you'll like this guy Evan Bartels and his emotive, heartfelt, well written song Lula.
  12. Can you imagine if Barack Obama posted something like that on his social media?
  13. Yeah, I haven't seen any evidence that the Rams or someone else were about to pick TeSlaa if the Lions didn't move up there and get him. This still feels like such a steep, steep reach to me. I hope TeSlaa turns out to be a starting caliber player.
  14. Imagine being that much of a cocksucker like Jesse Watters is for this administration and not even being gay to enjoy it. At least as a bisexual man I enjoy it. I don't like big balls though, average sized is fine for me. The water carrying and **** licking going on at Fox News is and always will be pathetic. The lack of real journalism this sycophants display at Fox is truly incredible.
  15. If you paid attention to what Trump's been saying about Waltz lately it was a signal for things to come.
  16. Lock him up! No reason he shouldn't be in jail for this. No need for a trial really either. Since MAGA made baseless and specious claims against Hunter Biden no reason we can't fire back at Eric Trump. In all seriousness, while this reeks of backroom dealings and shady business, to assert as much or actually think Eric Trump should go to jail without evidence would be troubling. It didn't stop Fox News and MAGA from being judge and jury on Hunter Biden though.
  17. That statement he made at the press conference shows yet again what a know nothing moron and cretin he has always been. Democrats should be campaigning on Trump wants to take your kids toys away and wants to cancel Christmas and birthday gift giving. I'm serious. This kind of bull**** campaigning works for Republicans and the media eats it right up. Democrats should be painting a picture of empty department store toy sections and unfulfilled Amazon toy orders. Be relentless with the messaging too and pin this **** on every Republican running. Make Trump cancels toys as much a culture war issue as it is an economic issue.
  18. They hold in the 4th quarter and don't choke it away. As suspenseful as they made it. Phew!!!
  19. Considering how our last inbounds went I don't trust this. 😬
  20. Were Brunson's feet moving in the lane? How was that an offensive foul on Cade?
  21. Looks like there will be a Liberal government in Canada.
