Well, that's a nice post. Agreed.
Forgive us for wondering whether you are trolling though...you "happen to think he's not one" (racist) and all those pro athletes, many of them black, must be wrong to think so?...have you considered that perhaps their perspective is far more acute than yours?

In my post, I said perception is reality, so whether he is or isn’t is besides the point: he’s perceived as racist and that’s what counts. Trump, as we all know, can’t help talking about everything, often to his detriment. For instance, he went on and on about the central park five, way past that due date of simply allowing justice to do its work and let the results speak for themselves.
And then Trump had to blast Kapernick, when a more nuanced response would have helped. Then he blasted Lebron. I mean, c’mon man, sometimes a cigar is just a cigar.
Republicans need a leader who is genuinely curious and enthralled by valuable black culture like a Sunday morning church baptist service in South Carolina (better yet, the picnic afterwards), or a boys hoops game in Baltimore City between Dunbar and Walbrook, or attending a Kid Creole and the Coconuts concert. You can’t fake your interest…either you find it wildly amazing (I do), or you will never get blacks to cross over. I want someone who genuinely appreciates black culture without being fake or pandering. And you can maintain your conservative bona fides when you do.

I was kidding him. And I understood your first line to be such as well.
I just didn't understand what the 'predictable' and 'old sod' and poker references were about. I had no 'complaint about your interjecting', this is an open thread. I'm a frequent 'interjector'...you might be referring to Salty who often complains that someone (like me) is interjecting into a discussion he's having with another poster...somehow he must think those discussions are closed...the only things I ask of others is to add something of substance or perhaps funny to the discussion, on point, not just anger and vitriol...so kidding me certainly would not be an issue.

Often when you interject you have obviously not been following the discussion, read the links, & divert it in an entirely different direction.MDlaxfan76 wrote: ↑Tue Nov 09, 2021 9:56 am .you might be referring to Salty who often complains that someone (like me) is interjecting into a discussion he's having with another poster...somehow he must think those discussions are closed...the only things I ask of others is to add something of substance or perhaps funny to the discussion, on point, not just anger and vitriol...so kidding me certainly would not be an issue.

Re: ~46~ Old Uncle Joe Biden ~46~
You may not remember, old guys like you and i suffer from this from time to time. You scolded me for interjecting in a conversation you were having with another poster. Old sod, if you had paid attention over the course of years is a moniker that a Fan uses from time to time. You can even check with him if you like, it is never said in disrespect. I'm stunned for a guy who spends as much time on this forum as yourself never heard it before. The poker analogy i used also sailed clear over your head. Poker players always love gullible people that can easily be manipulated. They like taking their money. If you ever get curious, check out the WPT on your local TV. Even an old guy like yourself can edumacate yourself about what Texas Hold em is all about. The relevance to our politicians is scary, once you understand the concept of bluffing your opponent.MDlaxfan76 wrote: ↑Tue Nov 09, 2021 9:56 amok, meeting my facetious comment to tech with your own?cradleandshoot wrote: ↑Tue Nov 09, 2021 7:53 amI'm being facetious, I thought you would figure it out.

while that could and I'm sure has happened that I missed a link, it's always actually on topic, not a diversion or unrelated. And even that's been rare relative to you seeming to simply object to my adding anything contrary to your point of view on a topic...you tell me to butt out, you were having a discussion with "X", not me.

I'm not 'a fan', so why call me 'old sod'? I've never used the expression with you, heck I don't think I've even called you 'old cranky'.
And I'm quite familiar with poker and its various expressions, I just saw no connection with my having been gullible about anything...just seemed rather out of the blue.
And I don't recall scolding you for simply 'interjecting', adding your two cents...however, if you came into a conversation, guns blazing, ranting away, insulting away, then sure, I'd object to that sort of 'interjection'. But it wasn't your participation that would have spurred that response.
