Twelve killed in shooting targeting Jewish community at Australia's Bondi Beach
sheeeit replied to RPM's topic in Daily Texan
Lulz. I know it is going to be very hard for some but try and realize this is not a whataboutism. I think it was wrong then and now, but for some unknown reason most of you want to forget the past. Your post is emotional drivel. When Obama deported several million, guess what? Everyone's lawn got mowed, restaurants still flourished, construction was and still is at an all time high. https://fred.stlouisfed.org/series/TTLCONS https://fred.stlouisfed.org/series/MRTSSM7225USN Obama did the exact same thing Trump is doing. Going after criminals? "The principal finding of the Times investigation is a damning indictment of an administration that has claimed repeatedly to be targeting the worst of the worst violent, foreign-born criminals. In reality, according to the Times analysis, “two-thirds of the nearly two million deportation cases involve people who had committed minor infractions, including traffic violations, or had no criminal record at all.” In contrast, only “twenty percent—or about 394,000—of the cases involved people convicted of serious crimes, including drug-related offenses, the records show.” https://www.americanimmigrationcouncil.org/blog/new-reports-undermine-obama-administrations-claims-about-deportations/ Family separation? "The Obama administration doubled down on one of its worst immigration legacies: the return and expansion of family detention. Responding to a court order holding that its family detention camps violated the 1997 Flores settlement agreement, the Obama administration Friday again defended family detention as necessary to send a message to Central American families that they are not welcome here—even though it concedes that most of them are fleeing persecution." https://www.aclu.org/news/smart-justice/president-obama-wants-continue-imprisoning-immigrant-families Due process? https://www.aclu.org/news/human-rights/harrowing-tales-wrongly-deported-how-border-patrol-officers#:~:text=After hours alone in a,but all too terribly common. https://www.aclu.org/news/immigrants-rights/speed-over-fairness-deportation-under-obama Raids? Targeting non criminals? https://www.immigrantdefenseproject.org/media-roundup-ice-raids/ https://www.americanimmigrationcouncil.org/blog/groups-demand-obama-administration-stop-immigration-raids/ "The Obama administration confirmed Monday that it began a new wave of arrests of Central American immigrant families over the weekend, moving forward with deportations of mothers and children despite an outcry from immigrant rights groups and potential political fallout for Democrats." https://www.politico.com/story/2016/01/obama-family-deportation-raids-217329 US citizens? https://www.nbcnews.com/id/wbna45665156 Asylum? . "In every case, the Obama administration has argued that it can deport asylum-seekers without any oversight or review from the federal courts. This practice deprives asylum-seekers of their constitutional right to challenge their deportation orders in federal court. " https://www.aclu.org/news/smart-justice/violation-constitution-obama-deporting-asylum-seekers-without Again, I don't Iike a lot of this now and didn't like it then. But even though the Obama admin did exactly the same thing Trump is doing and on a LARGER scale, none of you called Obama/Biden/Jeh Johnson- ethnic cleansers/xenophobic/brown people are bad/fascists etc. Yet they treated hispanic immigrants exactly the same. -
I like the experience and fully embrace its future. My only complaint was my car needing to merge onto a busy street. I sat for at least 20 minutes waiting. I didn’t know what to do. I called people to ask. Horns blaring behind me. A few cars behind us passed in on the shoulder to merge. At one point I was going to get out and walk. It was actually pretty stressful. I’m sure they can tweak this and they need to.

Obviously joking.

Exhibit 1. Miss You. I dare any brave artist to try and cover it. It’s not musically great but an absolute classic. Imagine yourself trying to karaoke this song.

Listening to some Stones. This sounds blasphemous but fuck Keith Richards for shitting on Mick. Dude was a fantastic lyricist and top 10 all time vocal/frontman. I’m sure Mick was pretentious but you just can not deny his talent. Overall, Mick is more of a savant in his lane than Richard’s is in his. Pains me. But maybe not.

I thought for sure this was a bit. Lost a little respect you fell for this.
-
I don't think we disagree. All I said was that the rule is subjective and if a team asks for clarification on a specific play and the refs ok it, then I do not fault the team for running it.
-
Well that was the whole point of the hypothetical. The OU play by play guys said OU specifically told the refs pregame what they intended to do. I said to pretend it was some other team because OU doesn't get the benefit of the doubt. The refs said ok. They ran the play. I have no idea if they really did ask the refs pregame. I just posited that if they did ask them pregame, it would change my opinion on whether it was cheating or not. If you tell a coach something is not against the rules, you would be pretty hypocritical to then blame the coach when the play worked and the other team was pissed. I have a hard time believing that if a coach asked you personally about a particular play before a game and you told the coach it was not a penalty, and then the coach ran the play, that you would call them dirty. It didn't happen in game speed. You as the ref had no distractions when explained what the play would be. You had time to talk about it with your other refs. If you would still say the play was dirty then we just disagree.
-
LOL. Take your ritalin. I assume you guys know that it is routine for teams to talk to officials before the game and tell them about potential trick plays they intend to use (reverses, double passes, fake field goals etc) so the refs know it is coming and know what to look for from a rules standpoint. I already said it seemed shady at first. I guess I am having a hard time blaming the team when they told the refs before it happened. The refs knew the rules. Blame them or blame Auburn for being stupid. If the conversation with the refs was that they noticed the Auburn DB talks a lot of shit and that they were going to have their slot receiver try and bait the DB into losing focus, is that a penalty? Solid point. So if a team came to you as an official before the game and explained exactly what they were going to do and you said it was not a penalty, who do you blame?
-
OK. I read that. The dude walked right in front of the defender. In a no huddle situation. No gesture to the sideline. No taking off his chin strap. Not running. It was pretty deep in OU territory and he wasn't angling toward the bench area. Just walking out to his spot. If he stopped 3 yards further from the sideline would it have been a penalty? What does "hideout" mean? He literally walked right in front of the defender and took his spot. OU had a wide receiver outside of the slot guy in virtually every play. Why would the defender think there was no one out there? Why would the defense think he was substituting when the QB and OL and everyone else on the field were lining up for the next play? I have watched it many times now. The DB was too busy jawing. I think there is a fine line between using the substitution penalty and just baiting a defender into an emotional mistake.
-
LMAO. Thanks. I needed that.
-
Probably just have to disagree. There is no question that they hoped to fool Auburn. But what is the definition of substitution? After the play, there was no huddle. No one ran on the field (yes I know they do not have to). Guy just walked to his position. He didn't wave his hand like he needed to come out. Didn't limp towards the sideline. Does the offense have to tell the defense to cover them? Watch Texas or any game. Often receivers walk to their position during no huddle. The OU slot guy distracted the Auburn DB. I think the Auburn DB just messed up. He was too busy jawing with the OU guy and forgot to see who was out there. But again, unless you think there is no subjectivity in the rule, the only way to be sure is to ask the refs. If they say its clean then run it. I am fairly certain it wont work against Texas
-
No. And likely never will. I have no idea if it is true or not. Just a hypothetical.
-
The question was do you think it is cheating or bush league by a team to run a play that they cleared with the refs? If they had not cleared it beforehand it would almost certainly be bush league and possibly against the rules. It certainly would be pushing the rules.
