I don’t agree with this sentiment in this instance, but I think you’re correct about the nature of fan bases in general.
Sark was plenty popular heading into this season. The hype was through the roof and a lot of that was coming from him. Maybe he had some bad evals at receiver or got unlucky with other targets in the portal, maybe his db hire didn’t pan out, maybe Arch got the yips. Whatever.
For your OL to suck this bad at this stage of his tenure is completely unacceptable and raises major red flags that can’t be ignored. It cost us huge. The only explanation I can think of is he didn’t have his eye on the ball and didn’t understand his own team well enough to hit the portal. I think he was dealing with personal issues. I want the best for the guy but this was a massive fuck up and I don’t think there’s anything wrong with crying foul.
Can't much argue with that. The OL is the most glaring problem and seemingly the most inexplicable.
Although the Akina hire seems most unfortunate, it happened for a good reason in Gideon departing for a DC job and Joseph for the NFL.
And you have to think PK had some input in the hire. Can't solely tag Sark with that.

If you want an alarm, we've been quite content with our Simplisafe stuff. Cheap, works, decent interface. Not as cheap as Wyze and actually probably not as good as far as the pure camera tech. Not sure if they have alarm parts of their system.

This is kind of comical. Halligan had to have assistance from one or more of the grand jurors to operate the ELMO, a courtroom "video" device very similar to an overhead projector. It's primitive, fundamental court tech.
Shows ol silk stalkings Linds doesn't have much courtroom experience.

I mentioned it elsewhere, but I have been impressed with a couple of Wyze cameras we bought to surveil the back yard.
Apparently some former Amazon tech people.
Not connected to any nefarious shit, AFAIK, and cheap.
If we get anymore "smart" shit, it's highly likely to be Wyze.

Some good news.
Not sure about the Supreme Court case, but it is pretty clear that the factual predicates for ICE violence in Chicago are bullshit.
But this indicates that the charges will be dismissed against Marimar Martinez, who they shot, and Anthony Ruiz, who was also arrested.

I hate everything about this.
To me, it manifests most visibly in any number of posts, emails, etc. I get that do NOT contain words, but rather a link to some 30 minute video. First, I can read all the words from that video in 3 minutes, so stop wasting my time and yours. Fucking read, it's faster. Second, why are we even referring to some "personality" who is aggregating (poorly) actual fact-based reporting and information about a subject? Point me to the source material, not what Joe Rogan fucking says about it.
The dumbification of everything continues not just unabated, but accelerated. EXACTLY as Musk wants it to be. Because really, the only way for him to be "super smart" is to ensure that everyone else is super dumb. Problem is, he drinks his own kool-aid, and is dumbifying himself along with everyone else.
Yeah, I've said how much I prefer reading over watching almost anything, but especially news.
I have somewhat embarrassingly taken to reviewing regularly Ken White's Popehat bluesky, because I really jibe with Ken White. But, like all media of that ilk, it contains a fair amount of bullshit that requires source reading. But it's a good place to find links and things to find further reading on.

it seems like a bitch move for Sark go for a walk immediately after practice and tell people not to contact him for an hour or more until after his walk is done.
Eh, I disagree. It's an hour. If it's that important, take it away from the press and BMD.

And if she thought tattoos would pass as cuts/scars, you can add dumber than a box of rocks.
Point of clarification.
There is a body modification known as "scarification," where scar tissue essentially performs the function of ink in a tattoo. Some tattoo artist types specialize in it. So they are actual cuts, but done in a safeish manner to generate scar tissue (or maybe to avoid scar tissue in this case).
So, I'm guessing those are really cuts. Just administered under controlled conditions.

Yes it was read the information on page 229 and below.
One other aspect was seen as a positive for Texas. Instead of two-spotting, which is best described as running two practices at once, Texas elected to just one spot for most of the spring. Coaches and players honed in on technique in the opportunities, with younger players getting the chance to watch how older players did things. When some of the more veteran players were kept out, that gave reps to the younger players. But because of the difference in structure related to how often the program practiced with contact, players nursing ailments of any sort could still get reps in without major risk of reinjury.
In hindsight, that seems like a huge mistake.
But it may be evidence that Sark thought he had his machine finely tuned and ready to rock, with injury avoidance a priority. Obviously in error, and maybe/probably a contributing cause.

assuming they didn't fuck up THAT indictment as well.
They weren't operating under the gun there with respect to the statute of limitations.
I haven't seen the evidence in that one, just heard what educated commentators say. In Lisa Cook's and other James mortgage cases, the technically incorrect mortgage documents are strongly contradicted by the rest of the documents/record.
The one James was actually indicated on instead turns on what the language of the document permits and does not permit (rentals in the first year of the mortgage). It's my understanding that because of that vagary, DOJ rarely or ever brings fraud prosecutions, but it seems to present a jury question and not something that can be resolved on pretrial motions.
Also, something to keep in mind about fraud. Most fraud requires a present intention not to do what you represent you will do.
Changing your mind and not doing what you represented you would do may be a breach of contract, but if it was a change of mind and not the intention at the time of the representation, it ain't fraud. And proving it was a present intention and not a change of mind can be mas dificil, amigos. It's gotten a lot of dirty fuckers off.

Something bad happened to a young woman/dotard supporter who worked for a Congressperson from NJ
Something bad did happen. It's just not what she wanted you to think.
It's a lovely story. She used a tattoo artist for help with the scar lacerations, and her co-conspirator had to google "zip ties near me" to stage the scene.
Now Natalie Greene and her co-conspirator face up to 5 years in prison and 3 years supervised release.
Really surprised Habba Dabba do brought charges.
Also note that in the press release, she is referred to as "Special Attorney" Habba. That's an effort to try and shield the consequences of her unlawful appointment.
28 USC 515 authorizes the AG to hire "special attorneys." In Jack Smith's case, they argued that a Special Attorney can't exercise the same powers as a US Attorney and must be answerable to one, which Smith was and was not, respectively. Guess what Habba's doing? Halligan too.

I really don't give a flying fuck about Comey, but I hope he walks. I really enjoy watching these chucklefucks step on rakes. The more egg that ends up on their collective face, the better.
Yeah true. And he will. I'm more sympathetic to Letitia James, but I honestly think that case may have to go to a jury.
The only real question is how embarrassing is this going to get for the DOJ?

Gutting the offseason practice schedule was a big deal imo too. I get the logic behind it but less practice = worse team.
I'm sure they don't want to part ways. He has shown the upside when he has his shit together and the program has gotten all aligned for the first time in ages, which he deserves plenty of credit for. Plus it's not a great look for anyone if they split. But IF these rumors are real, then yeah they could likely fire for cause and might do so if they feel like he can't get his shit together.
Did this actually happen? I know we didn't have a spring game. But don't recall hearing this until fairly recently.
If so, it may go a long way to explaining why Sark thinks he has a better team than he's got, and maybe also why the team isn't that good in the first place.

We have less of those after the Louisiana legislature passed a bill that says undocumented aliens may not recover damages for being injured in auto accidents in Louisiana.
Put your Maga hat on and fire up your pickup truck. Feel free to blow through stop signs and traffic lights at high-speed while listening to Kid Rock, because if you cripple or kill some undocumented kids, you can just point at those little brown criminals and laugh while calling ICE on the survivors.
Goddamn.
That has got to be unconstitutional, even in the Fifth Circuit.

Just now, Red Five said:Karoline Leavitt is absolutely furious about Trump threatening to kill members of Congress..... and what I mean is that she is furious at those members of Congress. She is claiming that they told our military to ignore lawful orders, which is of course just a 100% lie.

Correct me if I am wrong, but the current hearing is the defense asking the judge to dismiss the indictment with prejudice, due to malicious prosecution. (I'm hazy on the terms there.). Since that is very rarely granted, I am curious if the judge might just say there is no valid indictment to dismiss, and sidesteps the bigger question on whether the prosecution overall is malicious.
There are multiple questions going on, but this precise one is that they are contending that the indictment, having not been actually heard and true-billed by a grand jury, is defective and should therefore be dismissed. That is a separate question from many of the others that are now or will be under consideration. like vindictive prosecution, grand jury misconduct, etc.
One of the critical questions is that limitations has passed, so at first glance, the government cannot just re-indict him correctly this time.
But, a statute provides a six month tolling of limitations when an indictment is dismissed under certain circumstances. https://www.justice.gov/archives/jm/criminal-resource-manual-655-statute-limitations-and-defective-indictments-superseding

DOJ superiors instructing a lawyer, not to answer a federal judges, specific questions about an important issue with law and fact is usually not gonna go over so well.
It also came out that Halligan hung around after the grand jury no true build the first attempt, most of the grand jury went home, but the jury for Person and one other grandeur was hanging around, so Halligan got two of the Granger members to sign the second indictment, which she signed and delivered to the federal magistrate.
Both of those things are far more problematic for them from a discipline standpoint then her being too stupid to know how to conduct a grand jury indictment process. Inexperienced or no, she was well aware that she presented a totally invalid and no indictment that is lead to Comey retaining criminal defense council to fight that false charge.
There will be lots of popcorn, consuming fun coming out of this. There is zero way that Comey’s indictment is not overturned.
Yep.
First off, I think it is highly unusual for federal prosecutors to bring an indictment when someone has gone to the trouble of writing a declination memo. About the only real justification for that is if new evidence comes to light, making the memo inaccurate./Lebowski.
But in the circumstances in which a declination memo exists in an active prosecution, I might think it would be exculpatory material required to be disclosed by the government under Brady.
We're not quite at that point yet, but the government here is making noises that it intends to violate Brady. And that is the most unforgivable prosecution error that can be made, especially when it is intentional. Well, short of fabricating evidence and suborning perjury, which I would not put past this bunch.

James Boasberg, DC District Judge, continues to doggedly pursue contempt of court against Trump's DOJ for lies told about deporting immigrants subject to an injunction against deportation.
Related:
As pointed out in the replies, lawyers drafting declarations is common. But good lawyers make damn sure the witness/declarant understands and affirms everything in the declaration.
My favored practice along those lines has been to have the witness write what he wants to say and than transform that into a declaration.
Witness there also looking to the government lawyers for help.
Lulz.

I think a lot of the criticism of X was in defense of Quinn
It doesn't really matter. The point is the offense isn't able to routinely do things Sark thinks it can. From practice, or something.
The players aren't necessarily affirmatively bad, but for whatever reasons, just not performing. And it's not like they utterly cannot run the offense, they just miss it by . . . this much. The pass is off. The route is a little off. A missed block. Drops.
The glaring exception being the OL. I'll say it again, last year's OL just wasn't all that, despite the draft picks. The offense was good enough overall that it seemed like kind of a nitpick, but its lack of push in the run game kept our offense under wraps.
Of course, now, it's a glaring, massive defect that probably drives everything else wrong with the offense: Arch struggling, not establishing with the WR, and obviously the never-quite-gets-going run game.
Even the penalties, which seem most disastrously to center around an OL that is more than half-likely to get bitched on any given play. They're so nervous they jump, and then hold when they do get bitched; if they manage to engage a rusher at all.

They might actually realize that, in addition to horrendous self-dealing. the law enforcement practice of obtaining call records of suspects and witnesses is so routine that this would create a huge litigation burden from a huge number of people.
