@Crimsonorblue22 ha! Yep, I think they'll get one in garbage time

They're like... really bad. Our walk ons should get some nice run. 48-13
@BeddieKU23 visit locked in. At this point I’d be a little surprised if he didn’t commit
Bean and Fairchild didn’t make the cut. Bummer.
Yormark will stop at nothing just to see UConn play at the Garden
Sigh. We have to get out of this league.
Easy win, semi-local, cheaper than buying a G5 game.
@jayballer67 plenty. Moore, Dickinson, Harris, Adams, Mayo, and Coit will all be out of eligibility. Storr likely pro. Plus, the limit will go to 15 (13 now). We'll finish the penalty so we'll be able to use 14. So we have only a handful of returnees. My guess, we add 9-10?
Sure seems like a 2 big class
@nuleafjhawk I think we all kinda memory holed 2020 lol
Thank you @mayjay for the reminder to point out abhorrent stuff. Trump only cares for himself, he literally could not care less about veterans. 🐦 View Tweet?s=46&t=c0LiaNrxev6XfT7LIH8dAQ
@mayjay the 08 cycle seriously, but casually beforehand
@mayjay sure, Bob Dole. I'll even make it bipartisan. Barack Obama, even though I don't agree with his politics seems like a fine fellow
@mayjay not exactly sure how? I dump on Trump all the time. He won Kansas by 200,000 votes in 2020. My vote doesn't matter in the slightest.
@mayjay the campaign speaks for the candidate, full stop. He knew what they were saying was a lie and he chose not to correct the record at the time. To think he had no idea what his own senior staff was saying to the media is extremely naive.
Sorry, I expect more out of our candidates for the highest offices. I'm not voting for either Trump or Harris. I never said both were equal or implied anything of the sort. I left the GOP because of Trump nearly a decade ago. Didn't vote for him in 16, 20, and won't in 24. I said on January 6 he should be impeached and removed.
@jayballer67 Self was hired in 03, Selby was class of 2010, Wiggs 2013
Gotta say, blaming your military service for fake hearing loss to get try to get out of a DUI is ballsy. Disqualifying, but ballsy. 🐦 View Tweet?s=46&t=c0LiaNrxev6XfT7LIH8dAQ
I think Josh was composite #1 too. Cliff was also up there
Mase is a great dude. I don’t think he has a future in football but he’s going to be successful in life.
Booker had a really nice hit in Hard Knocks. He’s gonna be terrific for us
Caveats about it being 2 preseason games apply, but it sure looks we got a steal in Booker @wissox 🐦 View Tweet?s=46&t=c0LiaNrxev6XfT7LIH8dAQ
@Crimsonorblue22 dang. Austin Booker had an awesome game today for my Bears
Between this and Caleb’s great day it was fun 🐦 View Tweet?s=46&t=c0LiaNrxev6XfT7LIH8dAQ
Steph isn’t human
Vote third party or write-in. Show these parties we’re tired of terrible candidates
ETA: just not RFK he’s got brain worms (among other severe issues)
@benshawks08 most are state and local issues so YMMV depending on the locale
@benshawks08 he might be a nice guy, and that's fine. Doesn't qualify him at all to be VP. His administration hasn't really been successful. Minnesota is growing slower than the US as a whole in both population and income growth, it's fallen from the teens down to 20th in GDP/capita. Net migration is in the 30's.
Indeed I do think the government should do less. Just a few examples, end the War on Drugs, liberalize immigration, drastically reduce occupational licensing, reform criminal justice to end mass incarceration, deregulate housing construction, replace the complex system of in-kind transfers with cash transfers, end civil asset forfeiture, cut regressive sales taxes, shift school funding systems from resource allocation to weighted student models, stop banning books, stop meddling in personal health care choices, you know, that kind of thing. I do think that kind of government (in?)action would be helpful in many, many situations.
@bskeet I know they're LEDs so I would think they could do a lot of cool stuff but haven't heard anything official to that effect.
@approxinfinity we have a disagreement here, but a respectful one. It's protected speech. It's very bad speech, but protected nonetheless, same with hate speech. I think he knows it can't be criminalized, the whole "Congress shall make no law..." part of the First Amendment is unambiguous.
Scams aren't protected speech already, fraud is a crime.
"to protect people, the greatest good for the greatest number" I don't agree with this at all. The Bill of Rights is a charter of negative liberties, meaning a list of things that are individual rights no matter the consequence for the society as a whole. We could catch A LOT more criminals without the 4th Amendment and arguably make us safer, but property rights are fundamental to a free society. Skokie, Illinois (with its many Holocaust survivors) would've probably been better off without the Nazis marching in their parade, but they had the right to be tasteless bastards.
@rockchalkjayhawk that is a very long very complicated story. The absurdly short version is we elect D governors fairly often and historically have had a very moderate legislature. In some ways it’s a 3 party state with Democrats, moderates, and conservatives
This was also extremely bad https://reason.com/2024/08/08/tim-walz-was-dead-wrong-about-misinformation-and-free-speech/ ↗
@approxinfinity I was absolutely a slacker and got my arse chewed a few times 😂
Team America fuck yeah
He reminds me of the teacher everyone liked because he was easy and gave good grades but was actually grossly incompetent at everything lol
@Jhawk69 Lonesome Dove is terrific. We had it on VHS when I was a wee tot
@approxinfinity said in Best Westerns (not Hotels):
Deadwood is the best Western show I have ever seen. Ian Mcshane’s Al Swearingen is the absolute star.
Disclaimer: this show is not for the faint of heart, very raw and explicit.
Funny enough I’m in the Black Hills as we speak lol
There are too many sequels and reboots IMO
Also never visit the actual Deadwood. It’s a bunch of old building packed with slots.
Taylor Sheridan’s Hell or High Water is a great modern western. And how could we forget Blazing Saddles??
@jayballer67 a bunch of those schools had coaching changes so I don’t blame him for reconsidering. Honestly it’s a pretty normal timetable for a college bound kid.
@BShark well he’s also on one leg and led the NBA in PER last year
Peterson dropped his top 8. He’ll take some visits to see what other thing$ schools can offer but it would really be an upset for him to not be a Jayhawk
This lineup is so much better. Love Jo but he’s not right and the ball tends to stick

@wissox and myself are sure pumped for the Hall of Fame game
@jayballer67 just missed on a couple guys. It’s some NIL, some staff turnover
Frank Mason is still a bad, bad dude
@dylans if Cal returned half the team from winning it all last time around and replaced those who left with even better players
@dylans they’re the first or second best basketball team assembled in history. They’re by in large playing with their food in games that don’t count
@approxinfinity no that can’t be right. I’ve been told there were no close games and they just rolled everyone because they just played so, so hard. That team was so tough they literally couldn’t lose.
