  1. Past hour
  2. w/o getting political, nuance is under-rated. Perhaps it goes hand-in-hand with critical thinking and maturity, but then again the young were (are?) often the ones who would notice and point out the generational inconsistencies and failings of their elders pronounced 'wisdoms.' It is interesting how experience and environment and age shape and mold humans. Looking at the world at large with a very *binary viewpoint from adolescence onward (no matter how 'easy' it might be) seems like such a limited existence given the human lifespan. It seems to contradict everything about being human at all with respect to survival and cooperation and society. With respect to society specifically, it smacks of the 'know your place' pronouncement one hears whether overtly or subconsciously by those in power. *binary as in either/or, not sex and gender
  3. His beloved judicial branch is raping our country so he’s a pretty distraught right now in having to balance his love of SCOTUS with their terrible actions.
  4. I agree. Someone in the king's court was assassinated. If he can't administer justice for that, it kind of undermines his shadow of power and authority. He was always going to be directly involved as a figurehead.
  5. Well the portion I added makes it seem like the minister knew the kid and alerted a friend who was a federal Marshall. I guess they worked to bring the kid in safely with the dad.
  6. That is his whole debate style. Just overload whomever he’s debating with info and words the. Use circular arguments and when pushed into a corner go to the tried and true religious beliefs to protect a wrong thought or opinion. My favorite Charlie Kirk video is when he went to the UK and debated students there and got his ass completely handed to him because I guess brittish kids are smarter than American kids? But it was hilarious how he performed across the pond.
  7. https://www.adl.org/resources/report/murder-and-extremism-united-states-2022 One "flaw" I see is they are counting any murder committed by any extremist. Which literally fits the description, but is probably not what people expect that data reflects.
  8. It almost always works. I’m not a parent but those of you who are: I mean is there any way you wouldn’t be able to identify your kid from a picture like that?
  9. Upsets Last Week 1-5 (.167) 3-3 (.500) This Season 3-15 (.167) 6-12 (.333) Kansas State by 1.72 over ARIZONA (1.5) - Friday, September 12. Kansas State had flipped to the consensus favorite by 1.5 on Wednesday which would remove this from the Upset pick category as the computer supports KSU as the favorite by 1.72. We will continue to follow the spread to see if it moves back in the other direction. Colorado by 2.36 over HOUSTON (-4.5) - Friday, September 12. Houston had moved as high as a 5.5-point favorite on Wednesday for this conference opener for both schools. So far, the Cougars are 2-0 ATS in 2025 and the Buffs are 1-1 which mirrors their actual game records. TULANE by 2.75 over Duke (-1.5) - Saturday, September 13. At the sportsbooks we largely follow, Tulane opened as a 2.5-point favorite but, by Wednesday, there was a wide mix of lines. Tulane was under water by 1.5 at FanDuel, while others such as BetMGM had the Green Wave by 1.5, and still others had this anywhere from a pick 'em to a half-point on one side or the other. Tulane was back to being favored (-1.5) on a Thursday morning check. We'll keep following it to see if a consensus is formed. One interesting aspect of this game is Duke QB Darian Mensah is a transfer from Tulane where he started all 13 games as a redshirt freshman year ago and threw for 2,723 yards with 22 TD's to 6 INT's while leading the Green Wave to a 9-4 record. Tulane went to the portal and picked up BYU transfer Jake Retzlaff who threw for 2,947 yards a year ago with 20 TD's but also had 12 INT's. Retzalff is more of a dual-threat who already has 177 yards rushing this season and 2 scores to go with 277 yards passing, 2 TD's and no INT's. For Duke, Mensah has a whopping 723 yards passing with TD's and 1 INT, but he threw the one INT and added two fumbles in last weekend's 45-19 thumping they were handed at home by Illinois as the Illini outscored the Blue Devils 31-6 in the second half. Tulane is 25-2 in its last 27 home games as the moneyline favorite. Duke is 5-6 straight-up on the road over the last two seasons after going 4-2 a year ago and 1-4 in 2023. TENNESSEE by 0.94 over Georgia (-4.5) - Saturday, September 13. The line was down a point to 3.5 on Wednesday. ESPN's College GameDay will be in Knoxville for this SEC showdown which Georgia has controlled with a current 8-game winning streak. The 'Dawgs are 0-2 ATS in 2025 while the Vols are 2-0, but both teams are 2-0 on the scoreboard. Middle Tennessee by 2.82 over NEVADA (-9.5) - Saturday, September 13. MTSU is ranked 126th by the computer and Nevada 127th out of 136 teams as we head into this intersectional game between the Mountain West's Wolf Pack and Conference USA's Blue Raiders. MTSU is 0-2 ATS in 2025 and Nevada is 1-1. This is the first meeting of these two schools on a 2025 and 2026 home-and-home contract. Vanderbilt by 0.41 over SOUTH CAROLINA (-4.5) - Saturday, September 13. South Carolina briefly opened as a 8.5-point favorite which quickly dropped to 6.5 and was sitting even lower at 4.5 on Wednesday. There is an early opponent head-to-head comparison on this one as South Carolina beat Virginia Tech 24-11 in Atlanta on Labor Day weekend, after which Vanderbilt went to Blacksburg and dominated the second half in a 44-20 win. The Gamecocks are 1-1 ATS while the 'Dores are 2-0.
  10. Hold Your Horses Last Week 0-3 (.000) 2-1 (.667) This Season 2-3 (.400) 2-3 (.400 MIAMI, FL (-17.5) by 9.53 over South Florida - Saturday, September 13. The line has risen from a 16.5-point open to 17.5 on Wednesday. The computer margin has also risen, but still only has this game separated by 9.53 which is nearly 8 full points under the spread. USF is 2-0 vs top 25 teams while Miami followed up its 27-24 win at home over Notre Dame with a 45-3 win over FCS member Bethune-Cookman. Miami is 6-1 all-time in this series with the last 3 wins all by 28 points or more, but we believe this is a solid Bulls team that didn't get their past two wins by fluke. . VIRGINIA TECH (-6.5) by 5.57 over Old Dominion - Saturday, September 13. This game opened at 8.5. The Hokies were an 11.46-point computer preseason favorite and that's dropped to 5.71 points. We are 2-0 SU and ATS on playing the computer's VT picks, taking South Carolina over the spread and Vanderbilt as an outright upset. Virginia Tech has won the last two to lead the series 4-2, and the Hokies have a 3-0 record vs ODU at Lane Stadium.
  11. Good idea to disseminate the video and images to the media. Trump says a minister identified alleged Kirk killer By JOSH BOAK Share Speaking on “Fox and Friends,” the U.S. president said that a minister identified the alleged killer of Charlie Kirk. Trump said the pastor had relations with law enforcement, saying that he knew a member of the U.S. Marshals Service. The president said this connection ultimately led to the alleged killer’s father getting involved, which resulted in the alleged killer being taken to a police station.
  12. Easy Pickins Last Week 6-1 (.857) 5-2 (.714) This Season 9-2 (.818) 8-3 (.727) LLINOIS (-27.5) by 38.23 over Western Michigan - Saturday, September 13. The Illini have a 6-0 turnover ratio to WMU's +1. Illinois out-ranks the Broncos on offense 47-127 and 54-95 on defense. Our one concern about this game is that Western Michigan already played a Big Ten road game - at Michigan State - and only lost by 17, 23-6. Iowa State (-20.5) by 27.06 over ARKANSAS STATE - Saturday, September 13. It's always worth a few extra beads of sweat of worry when a Power Four team hits the road against a Group of Five program, but we're taking this one based on computer numbers that already show a significant upward trend for the Cyclones who are 3-0 and ranked 6th in the Congrove Computer Rankings while the Red Wolves (1-1) are ranked with 100th and lost 56-14 at Arkansas. LSU (-7.5) by 10.10 over Florida - Saturday, September 13. This game opened at 9.5 and was down to 7.5 on Wednesday which makes a cover call more palatable. Both teams at somewhat worrisome weekends with the Gators losing 18-16 at home to a solid South Florida team as a 17.5-point favorite, while LSU only managed a 23-6 home win over Louisiana Tech as a 36.5 favorite. In the end, both teams missed covering by 20. The Gators snapped a 5-game losing streak in the series with a 27-16 win in The Swamp last year, but the Tigers have won the last 3 at home and are 6-1 in the last 7. The series is tied over-all at 34-34-3. NOTRE DAME (-6.5) by 14.43 over Texas A&M - Saturday, September 13. The computer trend line puts the margin at 10.89 for the Irish in the first meeting in South Bend between these teams since 2000, and only the second all-time. The first three were all Cotton Bowl games from the 1987 through 1993 seasons. They met at College Station in 2001 and again last year. Notre Dame lost the first Cotton Bowl meeting and the 2001 away game so they are 4-2 over-all in the rarely played series. Clemson (-2.5) by 9.30 over GEORGIA TECH - Saturday, September 13. The computer spread on this game in the preseason was 13.25 and it's dropped to 9.30. The line opened as high as 9.5 at the sportsbooks and was down to 2.5 at FanDuel on Thursday morning while it was at 3 on most other sportsbooks. We wouldn't take this game above 2.5. Clemson has won 9 straight in the series, and 12 of 14 since losing the 2009 ACC Championship game to the Yellow Jackets, 39-34, in Tampa before it move to Charlotte the following year where it has resided every year since then.
  13. Obviously but it’s being pushed by conservative sides on social media to alter away the original American flag and eagle shirt the original image had.
  14. There probably was no way he wasn’t breaking this news. Lol. 😂 but I can’t figure out from what he said if the minister is also the shooters dad. I’ve listened twice and I think he’s saying that but not at all sure.
  15. Well it’s because they’re doing it on purpose.
  16. Pretty strange that POTUS is breaking this news. He's desperate to get everyone to forget about his many wonderful secrets with Epstein
  17. President of the United States and there’s still nothing this man loves more than having a little bit of juicy gossip.
  18. Ok Mack “too much winning is bad for the guys” Brown…. but yeah, these are two positive outcomes of such a scenario
  19. I judge people who drink those for fucking up both their margarita and the beer, although the beer is usually shit beer anyhoo. Ketchup on a hotdog judgment. Nothing more. Drink what you want.
  20. Glad I could cause a good laugh for ya this morning. Hook em.
  21. Aces bombed away with 22 treys last night. 16 in a row to steal the #2 seed Playoff time:
  22. Too close for comfort
  23. Ok so basically Trump had a scheduled appearance on F&F and 5 mins before he appears on set he is told they have the shooter. A minister who has a US Marshal friend went to the Marshals set up the arrest and allegedly the shooter’s parent or dad was also involved like an intervention.
  24. Squid Billy McSheepface head butted the window causing dipshit to drop the food tray and let the door close behind him. That crazy bastard knows exactly what it's doing.
