Re: Orange Duce

First, he ain't gonna win. Second, let's have any retrial in August or September. Third, this is a state case. He can't pardon himself or order his goons to drop the prosecution. Your pretty confident. He SHOULDN'T win. His opponent is scarily reminiscent of HRC. Joe Biden could be the only Democra...

Re: The Biden - Harris Era.

It would have been great if the GOP senators had voted to convict on impeachment. That indeed would have had Trump fade away. But they didn’t and instead it became clear that the MAGA takeover was reality and ongoing, no fading away. I don’t think the legal cases in any way prevented him from leavi...

Re: Tewaaraton Award 2024

With Entenmann at 67% and #51 with 5 points vs Denver, I think that it's a two player race right now. Shellenberger with 2 points against UMD might not be a strong enough outing. For #1, I'm contrasting him with Rob Pannell in 2013... Cornell lost to Duke in the Semis, but Panell had a pretty big g...

Re: House v NCAA

Talked with my son last evening and his reaction is that this deal should be rejected. The missing piece is collective bargaining.

Once there’s a union to negotiate on an ongoing basis, this can be worked out to benefit all the athletes rather than the NCAA or power conferences alone.

Thats 100% just Ben Wayer forgetting what he’s doing. You can’t coach that. Just brain dead ball watching So supportive. Also, very brave when you have such an identifiable handle as “Hooz123” to insult by name college kids that play for your supposed favorite team. That’s accountability! Same trol...

Re: Johns Hopkins 2025

Yes - my dead horse has been roster size and while I still strongly feel there are a myriad of benefits to a smaller/streamlined roster that ship has probably sailed. '06's math looks pretty good this time and he is omitting Smith (in process and likely), the DIII face-off man, conversations/inquir...

Re: QF #3 Hopkins vs #6 Virginia Sunday @2:30

Just caught up with this thread. The trolling became quite ridiculous. Syracuse is a lacrosse 'brand' but Hopkins isn't?? Taking nothing away from Syracuse, which has a storied history as well, but it ain't close. The refs were on the take??? Idiocy. This is intentional trolling. See it as such. Th...

Re: UNC 2024

I was in Baltimore over this past weekend and attended the Hop game with some alums. Given the miserable weather and more time in the bar than in the stands the talk was that Duffy is hitting the portal this summer and is interested in transferring to Hop next season. I had heard this rumor elsewhe...

I wonder how Alito and Thomas sleep at night knowing a gaggle of puny and irrelevant FLP types dislike them so vehemently. Would y'all like some cheese with that whine? If you want better SCOTUS members try and find candidates that don't resemble yourselves when you look in the mirror. That would b...

Re: House v NCAA

If I'm not mistaken, Title IX applies, so if they pay the players generating the most money the lion's share, that's men's football and men's basketball, with women's basketball on the rise. I don't think there's an analogue for football on the women's side. Sounds like each school decides how they ...
