    The Ukraine thread goes strong at almost 1500 pages - 95% news, facts and actual discussion. 

    Best thread on the site. Would buy a beer for pretty much any poster in it.

    Sounds like a piece of cake. Regime change in 4 letter countries starting with an I always goes swimmingly.

     

     

    Iowa? Take that shit to the realignment thread.

    I was at that game.  We dominated from beginning to end. So glad we don’t play the dawgs this year.

    Yeah, the ASU loss was a fluke, but UCLA beat our asses. UW looks a bit better so far this season. What the Dawgs did to Michigan State today should be illegal - it was complete domination. Of course nobody saw it since it was streaming on freaking Peacock. Welcome to our new home.

    Not a great slate of games, but the PAC showing out nevertheless.  Just back from the RB.  Bruins had their highest scoring qtr ever in the first at 35 pts.  It was over early.  My fear is once the league play starts, cannibalism will take over.  Such a great league in its last hurrah.

    This just makes me sad. 

    Cannibalism will take over - there's no one or two teams clearly better than the rest - but the P12 may be the best conference top to bottom this year. It's just a damn shame what's happened to what was always an enjoyable and sometimes a great conference to watch.

    I'm just hoping UCLA will be UW's last conference loss.

    I AM NOT A TRAITOR, YOU ARE A TRAITOR FOR CALLING ME A TRAITOR

    side note, but i thought it was pretty widely reported he was a dual or tri citizen between US/Canada/South America? born in SA, applied to be a Canadian citizen, go it, then got a student visa to the US, then a green card, then applied for US citizenship?

    dude may have only one passport, but he had at least 2 others before. it's a super weird thing to say and absolutely a lie by omission.

     

    Denaturalize. Deport.

    (Defenestrate - that can be left up to our Ukrainian friends should they so desire.)

    I don't know if you have, but go there sometime.  I love that stadium and the gameday experience.

    My fall Saturday home for more years than I care to count. I've been fortunate enough to have attended games in a lot of cool places, but Husky Stadium is just something else. It should be illegal to have night games in a setting like that.

    So, they weren't willing to tangle with ships from Israel, Turkey/Georgia, or Greece, even though they threatened those ships. 

    But they would fire on a Palau-flagged ship, forcing it to allow them to inspect it.

    But the interesting thing is that they allowed it to continue to Ukraine, even thought they've claimed the grain deal is off.

    On some level, they know things get dicey if they start sinking or impounding third-party ships in large numbers.  But the Russian dumbshits could be setting themselves up for another sinking if they keep this up - Ukraine could follow these ships to see if they get boarded or run a decoy and then run a USV or whatever into the Bykov ship.

    It's got a crew of 80, so it's not a small little patrol boat like we think:

    I'll point out here that Palau is under a Compact of Free Association with the United States, under which the US is responsible for all Palauan international defense issues (although we are not allowed to declare war on their behalf). That could be a interesting twist.

    (For those of you who are history buffs - okay, all of you - one of the Palauan islands is Peleliu, which any Marine will know.)

  8. Much as I enjoy seeing it, UW is too high. The schedule is a beating with @USC, Oregon, Utah, @Oregon State, along with an OOC jaunt to Michigan State and opening the season hosting Boise State.

    (That said, as a season ticket holder I like a schedule with Boise State, Utah, Oregon, and the Apple Cup in Husky Stadium.)

    So far DeBoer looks to have what it takes as a head coach, but it's only his 2nd season as a HC at this level, so we'll see. Still looking forward to it!

  9. Hate to say it, but Portugal deserved better. Glad we advanced, but having residency in Portugal too I'm a bit disappointed they couldn't have gone through as well. They played solid in all three matches.

    Hope there are some changes going into the knockouts or Sweden is going to feast on this team.
