    Anyone that doesn't think we are fielding the greatest team in the world and that Gregg isn't the greatest manager that soccer has seen is being too negative.

    It looks like Gregg Henson from the Happy Fun Ball Show is coaching this team.

  2. This is really embarrassing.

    We need a Mercury Project, but for soccer.

    Sorry to be late to the party, but Mini-14s are garbage

    They never killed a single person if I remember correctly.

    A-Team would rather pelt you with melons and makeshift water cannons.
     

    Mini-14 worked well enough in the Miami FBI shootout in 86 to change the entire framework of how we arm and train police. Ironically, it also initiated the consensus that ultimately led to the assault weapons ban, but they exempted it because it was too popular, instead focusing on regulating relatively less common guns that had connotations to criminals and weirdos, especially the Tec-9, the MAC-10, the Uzi, and the AR-15.

    Yes, I was impressed by the 75’s quaity in fit & finish, not to mention its fifty year history of world wide reputation.

    I like the 75 decocker model a little more now that I’m used to it, but either way it’s a great pistol. They also made a .45acp version in the same design for a while if that’s your bag- the CZ-97.

    Problem is, how much of that medicine is tainted with fentanyl nowadays 

    Of medication in registered pharmacies? An extraordinarily small amount. The real danger around fentanyl with fake prescription drugs are ones sold by unlicensed pharmacies that are controlled substances, esp pain meds.

    What exactly, besides food, does Mexico do better than the United States?  Healthcare? is that what I am reading here?

    About the same quality with much better access and cost effectiveness.

    Well their system of access is obviously much better.  But it's not the third-world shithole people think it is when it comes to health care.  It has so many issues and is so corrupt, but when it comes to quality of care-it's not quite U.S. level but it's pretty fucking good.  While they have nowhere near the same amount, their medical schools are among the best in the world.  They don't have our R&D capacity, but their Pharma industry is very robust.  And their hospitals, at least in the urban areas, are among the very best in the Western Hemisphere, probably better than Canada after the U.S.  

    If you don't believe me, go hang out at the border and watch tens of thousands of American Seniors every single day pour into Mexico for quality, more affordable care and drugs.  

    This. In point of fact an American is about 6X as likely to go to Mexico for care as the proverbial Canadian is to come to the United States for care. 
     

    Medicine too- I was at the Cancun airport yesterday and people were loading up with OTC Rybelsus for about 1/10 the insurance cost here.

    Right, like Dallas isn’t a cesspool of douches…Dallas fans are the biggest pussies of all time after Montreal Canadiens fans*. They’ve yet to learn their place in the sports world. Other than the fucking cowboys, nobody* pays attention to Dallas teams other than the occasional team that makes a deep playoff run once a decade. And I know you will defend him because he’s currently wearing Mavs on his jersey, but you Dallas idiots are going to be in for a rude awakening when Kyrie fucks over your team, as he’s done literally everywhere he’s played***. 

    * who gets bent out of shape about fans of the Montreal Canadiens?

    ** nobody other than people from Dallas? Great. Do you need external validation from national media and t-shirt fans and front runners from other cities to feel good about your home team? Let me tell you something about people from Dallas: we don’t give a fuck. 

    *** it’s not your fault, Will.

    The Bar filed suit in May 2022.  The trial court ruled against him, the Dallas Court of Appeals ruled against him, now it's at the SCoTX.

    Earlier, I mentioned that the trial court judge was Andrea Bouressa, the same one who poured out the Bar in the Sidney Powell case.  That was bad reporting.  It was filed in her court, but a Kaufman County judge, Casey Blair, was appointed to hear the case.  Much like Powell's case was filed in a Dallas County court, but a Collin County judge appointed to hear it.

    In tech, responding to frustration and complaints this way is called “sending the client an org chart.”

  9. He is, but he’s got a bit of a blind spot when it comes to class, and that’s why he doesn’t fully understand the power of white supremacy over whites in the bottom half of the economy- it’s an unfulfilled promise- a booby prize. In direct contradiction to much of what his writing assumes, success simply isn’t available to most white people, male or otherwise, no matter how hard they work. But we tell them it is. We pretend it’s a birthright. The joke is on them, and they know it. That’s what this revolt is about, imo

    He did though- when he was healthy and the game plan called for him to be the primary option he did it on the regular. We know who KP is, thanks.

    So when Digital Underground says "I'm the one who said just grab 'em in the biscuits" how does this make sense?  Or is this like "you be illing" from RUNDMC and Eazy-E's take "Bored as hell and I wanna get ill."  where the regional context may have lead the slang to be used in two different meanings depending on how it is said, or where it is said.    Clearly, I need David Foster Wallace type essay on this.   

    This post reminds me of the time that I, a person originally from Oak Cliff who grew up in a very diverse neighborhood of Dallas and graduated from a majority minority high school got chided when I used commonplace language I grew up with for “appropriating AAVE” by my daughter, a college Sophomore from Central Austin who attends the University of Edinburgh, Scotland.

    This particular thing was going to have to happen (a hearing on Trump's motion to dismiss**) regardless.  Letting amicus argue isn't really a big deal in terms of time-wastage.  And actually probably increases the likelihood she gets it right.

    **In federal civil cases, hearings on motions are relatively uncommon.  The judge usually decides on the briefs.  Hearings seem to be more common in criminal cases.

    If she fucks this up, the government will undoubtedly appeal and the weight of authority such as it is seems to favor the government on this, as set out in Seligman's brief.  That may be the golden opportunity for the 11th Circuit to remand it to another judge.  Thousands of complaints have been leveled against her to the 11th Circuit Judicial Council, but most of them are not actionable. https://amp-cnn-com.cdn.ampproject.org/v/s/amp.cnn.com/cnn/2024/06/03/politics/cannon-orchestrated-complaints-trump?amp_gsa=1&amp_js_v=a9&usqp=mq331AQGsAEggAID#amp_tf=From %1%24s&aoh=17175189455410&csi=0&referrer=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.google.com&ampshare=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.cnn.com%2F2024%2F06%2F03%2Fpolitics%2Fcannon-orchestrated-complaints-trump%2Findex.html It has become clear, if it wasn't before, that there is a public perception of her that undermines the judiciary.

    I would also like to appear on this motion as a non-party how do I do that? I am happy to submit a brief provided that the court accepts MS-Paint
