  1. Dodgers in a complete tailspin
  2. Too fucking funny
  3. The fact that he is Deputy FBI director, 2nd only to fucking Kash Patel no less, is so mind-bottling I just can't process it.
  4. This is so fucking Third Reichy it's scary.
  5. Yeah, I sure would've thought I'd have heard a little more about these 300K missing kids. I mean it was a busy new cycle, but who knows.
  6. No shit. WTF is she freaking out about? That there's brown person near her?
  7. Air fried burrito?
  8. I agree, except it will just give them more "justification" for their thuggery.
  9. Holy shit- "physical appearance, accent..." If you're brown, you're goin' down.
  10. Not condoning that, but WTF raiding farms? We don't need food I guess.
  11. Doesn't really change the fact that there is a cap.
  12. OK, let's play out your position. Let's call the players what they are, professionals. The National Football League has self imposed guardrails to try to create some level of competitive balance. It's called the salary cap. Precisely what Prime is suggesting. That's how markets like Kansas City and in hoops OKC can compete with markets like LA, NYC, Chicago, etc. Sure it's great as a Dodger fan to be able to spend wildly to field the most competitive team they can, but that is also why most people hate the Dodgers. It's the same in CFB. If there are no limits to what players can earn, then it'll be OSU, Texas, Oregon, Bama, Georgia etc who really are the only teams who have a realistic chance. Is that good for the game? Honest question. And TRY to look at it as objectively as you can, as if you have zero affiliation to any team.
  13. You know that’s a stupid and nonsensical comparison.
  14. But his hockey training of grabbing him by the shirt to pull him in, pop him so he goes flying back, only to pull him in again by his shirt was great. It was like one of those paddleball games.
  15. Agreed. I know it's impossible for surly to be objective, but what is better for college football overall? SOME sort of pay-for-play guardrails, or just let the players go to the highest bidder, whatever the price? I already know what most will answer though.
  16. What would be the point? Get as many young prospects playing time as you can. Who knows, maybe one of them gets hot and becomes a trade asset. DJ ain't becoming that.
  17. This is very much the case. After the Eaton Fire, we were all eager to roll up our sleeves and start helping physically in any way we could. The reality was the scope and scale of the destruction was WAY beyond the abilities of just well intentioned neighbors. Ultimately the best way we found to help was financially through Go Fund Me's for families who had lost everything (and we know many dozens/hundreds in this situation). But to that end, be VERY certain the GFM's are legit. Even if they are for people you know. The scumbags are already out setting up bogus ones, filing BS FEMA claims just using public property data and social media, you name it. Trust but verify. I can't stress that enough. But yes, the scale may be way more than the surly flood brigade can impact. But maybe not. Wishing you all the very best.
  18. This one is my favorite.
  19. I hope she gets sent back to Iran and gets stoned to death. And not in the good way.
  20. Dodgers in a mini freefall. Everyone is scuffling, and the staff is a mess. Glasnow looked good today in his return though.
  21. Hopefully we can get back on track. Been a rough few games recently.
  22. Yeah I was listening to an interview with a local official and he said they just don't know how many people were in the area visiting, so it's almost impossible to determine how many may be missing. Heartbreaking.
  23. This is shear lunacy. What have we become?
