The thread is about the SCOTUS. And Ellison is not up for confirmation as a Justice of the Court. It's really as simple as that. The proposed narrative is a form of "whatabout" that gets tedious. It isn't hypocrisy to be less interested in Ellison's conduct. Start a thread on a topic that...

Anyone know of any remaining kids still looking at the Hoos? Looks like most all of IL's top 2020 guys are now off the market. Have to say I'm a bit surprised at how this has transpired. Just got an excellent FOGO from St Anthony's, previously committed to Boston U. You're right that the coaching c...

Man oh man there's some wild-eyed baloney getting spewed out in defense of this particular SCOTUS pick. Pretty crazy stuff going on in my own household as well. Dinner last night was a trip. No broken dishes, but close. Two older men, one 86 (father), another 64 (brother-in-law on wife's side), are ...

Lighten up. I look forward to reading your "we" posts on the UMASS-Lowell and Monmouth threads. :D And, no, not stalking you. A former player I coached is VERY interested in switching college committments.....to WAHOO land. One of those weird goalie types. 8-) cool, you just felt like bei...

"ST. PAUL, Minn. — An ex-girlfriend's allegation that Minnesota Rep. Keith Ellison once physically abused her could not be substantiated because she refused to provide video she said she had of the incident, an attorney hired to investigate the claims concluded in a draft report obtained Monda...

I suspect this is an "announced" matter, not that Lars doesn't have a bunch of recruits lined up. My hunch would be that there are some kids who are listed elsewhere (from the ER process) that will end up at UVA. Yes. And when I saw 3 or 4 of the 2020 early (pre-new rules) commits who rec...

I like to put all this into the larger context of how this will affect mid-term voting. Seacoaster, you're a lawyer and I'm not surprised that you see all of this through that lens, a liberal lawyer lens I might add. 8-) The minutia obviously matters to you. IMO though, most people see this simply ...

This story about the women in the elevators changing Flake's mind is total nonsense. Nonsense or not, how on earth were these people allowed anywhere near the Senator? Also, it comes off as so obviously staged... How can security be so lax? Now that the left has started to interfere with these proc...

Keep an eye on Jeff Flake's purchases over the next year. My guess, he adds another 5k sq/ft to his home, a new sports car, and his wife sports new jewelry. Would be interested to see his tax return/investments as well. EDIT: ;) Wow, youth, that sort of accusation, if serious, is below you. I forgo...

Just curious, if anyone knows: How did the Committee majority choose Mitchell? Cause she has that motherly, non-threatening appeal. Or, no other decent DA who prosecutes sex crimes would have any part of it. Let's hope that Mitchell surprises to the upside in how she handles this situation. If she ...

A few comments on the posts above: (1) Switching jerseys is not only silly, it sends the wrong message. In fact, what the Blue Jays should do is practice with their correct jerseys, run their most “secret” plays and sets, video the entire thing, and send a copy to each head coach in Division I lacr...

Swetnick's story certainly has some obvious weaknesses. Like how she says that she went to a bunch of house parties where girls were incapacitated and then gang raped? If you were a girl, would you ever attend a second party like this after seeing that the first time? Swetnick's story is that she w...

Nah, he's gonna skip that class..... Where's the clap emoji? :lol: :roll: Wondering whether 'laxmaven' came back as 'laxter'. Or 'Laxter' just came back as 'Laxter.' Calm down, fellers. I'm one of the good guys--- jut surprised at zero new recruits thus far. Glad to hear it... :D I suspect this is ...

W Yes it was a joke. A bad joke perhaps, but a joke nonetheless. The Jays wore their normal numbers for the scrimmage. The number switching mostly only happens for the spring scrimmages. Grimes looks like the second coming of Williams. With an even better shot. Impressive that he was so productive ...

scumbag :lol: .....pot meet kettle. Elected Democrats are just upset they have been exposed for who they truly are and are currently being beaten at their own game. Thanks to (the democrats)Biden and Reed for the no SCOTUS during an POTUS election year and the filibuster rule. Breaking News @ 7pm: ...

What's most telling is that apparently the first thought here is "this woman is lying" as opposed to "why wouldn't he just own up to youthful indiscretion, apologize and move on"? I don't think the first thought by anyone involved was "this woman is lying". It seems to...

Sorry I called you a nincompoop. Seriously, it was out of line, just a measure of my relative exasperation with you sometimes. Vade in Pace. And with those simple words of apology, you highlight what is so often missing in our discourse. The willingness to say you're sorry or that you've been mista...
