I say Hail Mary because of the way it went down not because of the distance. Correct on ND record, I forgot they had a by week two. Yup, beat themselves. 100%

My favorite thing to say in the cockpit when one of the boomers goes on an anti-millennial rant... "Uh, and who exactly bought the participation trophies?" Silence

No. But is that really how you read my words? Or do you think I was providing important context in reference to the general milieu which was the political mayhem occurring from 2020 through 2021? They (the Democrats) sanctioned mayhem that Negatory turns a blind eye to every time he posts a one-sided accusation. Or attempts what-about-ism. Or when he invokes Jan 6th as an idol, pointing and proclaiming: "See! look here! It's the same! The Rs and the Ds both do it!" Do you think I was carrying water for the few who broke the law on Jan 6th? Or do you think I was putting it in juxtaposition with what was the actual violence that was allowed to take place Do you acknowledge or deny that there was a qualitative difference with which republicans and democrats reacted to violence and anarchy that was initiated by their own sides? Or do you think that was all in our heads? Am I imagining that? I seem to remember Pence refusing Trump's orders. I seem to remember no large scale right-wing violence or rioting. Maybe I'm in my Twitter bubble. I welcome you to pop it. But, you have to provide evidence.

Have to respectfully disagree with you there bud…it was an 11 yard pass, so definitely not what I would call a “Hail Mary”. But it was an awesome and exciting finish. ND is also 0-2 now, not 1-2. I agree with much of the rest of your analysis—good stuff and glad the beginning of the season has yet to disappoint!

You'll not get an argument from me. UF could have won that game, despite the poor officiating. I think Lagway may be injured and Billy is letting him play, there's no other explanation as to why he's become such a horrible quarterback this year. LSU is overrated.

Hello to all, My apologies if this has already been covered. For officer training school, do you have to apply for multiple jobs, or can you strictly apply for one job? IE, I want to be a pilot, am I forced into applying for another job, or can I choose whether I apply for jobs other than pilot? Reddit threads have made me question my knowledge on the process. Thanks!

Apples and oranges comparison. Trump’s stupid/unprofessional tweets are not the same, nor even a “slippery slope,” to someone’s tweet celebrating murder. I’m sure we agree on the cringe level of many Trump tweets, but they don’t even make the CF list in this debrief.

Yesterday was an epic game of football. If you didn't see the end of some of these games you missed some incredible action. GT runs their kicker kicker onto the field with 15 seconds, the clock running, no timeouts and hits the longest FG (55 yards), of his life as the clock runs out...Dabo is left with his second loss and a dumbfounded look on his face. Tenn Kick shanks a kick to end their 8 year drought against Ga...game goes to OT and UGA wins. UGA is NOT that good! Texas A&M stuns ND with a Hail Mary as the clock runs out...ND now 1-2. UF - I almost feel bad for them. Their defense actually held LSU and it would have been much closer if Napeir wasn't such a horrible coach and their QB didn't throw FIVE picks. This was game one of a buzzsaw stretch on their schedule...next three games are at Miami, Texas at home then on College Station to play the Aggies. Does Napier survive to coach all three games? Arch Manning is not living up to expectations... Vandy suddenly looks stout as they completely punk's #11 South Carolina. Miami ended USF's dream run...the Canes started hot but let down a bit after a 1+45 rain delay then into Halftime. They cranked it back up to win big, Mario should have pulled Beck a lot sooner. Ole Miss fought a war with Arkansas, great back and forth game to watch. Great time of year.

There is some irony going on. Many are pissed at the dumbass things people are posting. I dunno, maybe if we had leaders in this country that set a higher standard of human behavior vs mean tweets/etc. I am not justifying, just pointing it out. That and I will not be surprised to find tons of SM accts are Ruskie/Chiner/NK trolls just churning out shit. PS to Viperman. Are you saying the Dems made em do it (Jan 6th) like they're puppets?

Not the stereotypical gen x, because they don't whine like that. Hell, he sounds more like an you-don't-understand-me millennial. I grow increasingly tired of having to listen to boomer airline captains complain about how bad the world is and how their kids are turning out liberal when it's the world that their generation created.

Another point to the idea that booster money may be more important to this new era of college football. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Ummm, he sounds like Gen X

Cry me a river. If you are working for an airline you have been making good coin in your last 17-22 years.

Pretty good flyby at Lambeau this week. Not real close up camera but they seemed right on time with fireworks (maybe 1 to 2 seconds late - nitpicking)

I don’t usually mention my Commodores in public until baseball season, but a win over a top 25 team is worth some kudos to them. They’re looking decent so far this year.

Shacked It ViperMan...

Miami is looking stronger than I’d prefer. I bet FSU-Miami play twice this year.

Yeah, still a good team, but not the same caliber since the Lawrence kid got drafted. NIL isn't helping the 'Clemson Way' either... Sent from my SM-S918U using Baseops Network mobile app

I'm not sure what reporting you're looking at, but the shooter apparently was credibly engaged in a homosexual relationship with a same-sex individual who was "transitioning." Seems to me that latent homosexuality and the fact that he wasn't feeling accepted by a social movement that is growing in popularity - or rather rejected by a louder, and increasingly verbal group of right-wing people - is a likely motivating factor for this person taking his feelings and redirecting them outward in an act of extreme violence. Maybe they weren't in a relationship and the shooter was merely acting out of a perception that his friend needed his honor defended. It doesn't really matter. The fact is that people can have whatever upbringing you want, and can turn out poorly - the opposite is true as well. They can be raised by right-wing priests and turn out blue-haired nymphomaniacs. Or they can be raised by left-wing granola bars, and wind up Jehovah's witnesses. You and everyone else understands this. The sad part for all of us is that for a long time - a very long time - this country was getting along and moving in a great direction. Black culture was seemingly becoming less violent. Gays were winning (and have won) increased acceptance throughout all but the most backwater parts of our society. A generation of kids grew up playing together and not really caring about skin color or cultural differences, and so on and so on. Then, for whatever reason, that all seemed to change. I'm not sure why, but things were different. Not "I perceived that things were different," but actually different. Now, we are becoming less "liberal" and far less tolerant. I lament we are becoming less liberal (in the true sense of the word), but I think that becoming far less tolerant is probably good and necessary. I think it is largely due to forces on the Left that demanded ridiculous, insane, and frankly, deranged capitulations. See "men have periods / can become pregnant," "men should be allowed to compete in women's sports," "black people are hunted by cops," "COVID didn't leak from a lab," etc. Those are my priors and I think evidence supports all of them in varying degree. Jan 6th isn't happening dude. Sorry, it just isn't. It's not the Pearl Harbor or September 11th you wish it was. 25 years from now we're not going to be holding "Remember" ceremonies throughout our society. A few token dems might, but they'll be the only ones. In 69 years, we're not going to mark the "passing of the last survivor of the Jan 6th attack on the Capitol," except for maybe some future talking-head on MSNBC. What it was in objective reality was a massive gathering of right-wing individuals (that got wildly out of hand), but which was organized in RESPONSE to actual, government-sanctioned anarchy that was ushered in and actively encouraged by prominent left-wing leadership throughout multiple layers of our government. This includes presidential and vice-presidential candidates. It includes governors. It includes mayors. It includes senators. It includes congressmen and women. With our own eyes, we all saw the chaos begin to unfold starting in the Summer of 2020, and continue through to the election and inauguration of Joe Biden. It was the unstated TACTIC of the Democratic party, implemented in order to undermine Donald Trump. I'm not justifying Jan 6th, but let's also not pretend that it arose randomly and thus points at some underlying reality that the US is a KKK-style right-wing hellscape. That's all in your head dude. It happened because of COVID lock-downs and people getting bored. The dems saw an opportunity to re-focus this boredom into channels that applied pressure on fault lines within their many of their most favored political constituencies. They saw a political opportunity and capitalized on it. A cynical play for sure. You can see them trying the same playbook again, but it's not having quite the same success this time around. Probably because we're not all locked-down with nothing better to do...

You are entirely missing the point. yes, both sides have fruitcakes but the Dem fruitcakes are YOUR leaders. The videos I attached have one loon (Maxine Water that I would equate to Meregie Taylor Green, but the others are the leaders of the Democratic Party....the Speaker of the House and the Senate Minority Leader! Break Break There has a been a wave of backlash and firings, some posted here. A friend knows they guy compiling the big database that is tracking 20,000 people who made comments and are being targeted to lose their job. He said nearly half are teachers...the right has been saying for years, the fight has been in the schools and universities. They fired the EA to the Vice Chancellor at my son's college after some incredibly hateful words pots. Something to think about.

I don't care if the guy was trans, straight or gay. He fucked up bad and people celebrated it. Those people are the ones I'm concerned about.
