    Brother do you know what thread your are in right now? See below…

     

     

    Where exactly was Jonah's name? Is he a star? No, he's supposed to be in HS right now. We have no clue if he will be a star just like we had no clue if Dunn would be a star or not. To this point, neither have played a football game. Take the L.

    There is a major hole in that theory/interpretation too, Jonah Williams wasn’t drafted and signed out of HS and isn’t going to leave school for another 3 years. The hypothetical is if Jonah Williams is a potential top 3 round NFL and MLB prospect would he forgo NFL for MLB. The only player to do that in the last 30 years is Samardzija. 

    This isn't about Jonah either but since you brought it up, he can't get drafted because he enrolled in college and is a scholarship athlete. These two scenarios are drastically different. Jonah decided not to enter the MLB draft when he enrolled early. Adam Dunn didn't do that. He got drafted his senior year of high school and enrolled in Texas afterward. He literally spent less than a year on campus yet did indeed choose originally to play football.

    @CycleTex87 can correct me if I’m wrong but I interpreted his question as in a star CFB player choosing between NFL and MLB draft. Not a HS prospect choosing between 1st round MLB money and a redshirt season. 

    There is a major hole in that theory/interpretation. He wasn't a 1st round draft pick. He also chose to play football full time at Texas instead of pro baseball initially. He himself said it was the hardest decision he ever had to make.

    I thought this was the question:

     

    He literally quit school to go play baseball.

    He was at school because he was on a football scholarship.

    Sort of, not sure how much of a choice it was. He was buried on the depth chart at QB and had moved to TE by the time he quit football. If we wanted to play professional sports baseball was pretty clearly the path. 

    The Question was two sport athlete. He fits the bill, don't overthink it.

    "Save the country" from what?

    I put it in quotes because I didn't say it. Below is the full speech, watch it, don't watch it, IDGAF. I only ask that you don't believe everything someone tells you. If you still think he is a Nazi, whatever, your opinion. I don't see that with the context of the entire speech. Lets face it, the clip is going around lacks context and doesn't look good. Looks can and in this case IMO are decieving. 

    Last last post. Good luck to you guys and girls, have fun, I want no more of this thread. Neg if you want, like if you want, I won't be responding to quotes. Have a nice day.

  7. I'm out, you guys have fun hanging out in one of the dumbest threads I've ever posted in. @immamac it's your site, ban twitter inbeds all you want, I never did anyway. I think its a mistake but if the site functions better overall, no big deal and doesn't really affect me either way. And any of you other motherfuckers think I'm a Nazi, you can go fuck yourself. You don't fucking know me and if you did, you would sure as fuck know I'm not.

    As an (I'm assuming) well-educated human capable of critical thinking, do you genuinely believe these two gestures carry the same meaning?

    Context which is something you clearly don't care about. I am perfectly capable of thinking clearly and have. I watched the entire thing from when he came out. That of course doesn't matter in here. He was super jacked up and overly excited from the get go but of course that provides context which doesn't matter. People see what they want to see. I saw someone thanking the crowd for "saving the country" and you see someone who wants to kill jews and take over Europe by force creating a perfect race of white people.

    I will say, watching grown men sink further and further as they defend the indefensible does come with its own bit of humor.

    uh huh.

    and your position after watching the Musk video is that he was doing what?

    The video is propaganda only without the audio. Like I said, context, which the audio gives. The video looks like a Nazi salute. When you listen and watch the speech you get context that makes the video insignificant.

  10. Just now, Foosters said:

    honest question. have you watched the videos of each of these?

    I saw the video and entire speech of Musk with the sound on. My point is context matters of course except for those that it doesn't fit their purpose.
