I don't think the Bushes minded Trump's absence, but I read somewhere that sitting Presidents rarely attend funerals of former First Ladies. Obama missed two: Reagan and Ford.

If one head coach has a Navy Seal on the roster and the the team is plagued with lack of accountability and work ethic, and another coach has the same Navy Seal but has a team known for mental and physical toughness (hoping this becomes the case), I'm going to go ahead and give the coach credit. I appreciate the service the Jackson gave to our nation and I'm glad he's on the roster if he can contribute in some way. He'll be a fun story if he gets on the field, especially if he ever were to become a role player of some sort. But I don't believe Jackson's work ethic is going to magically rub off just because he's on the team. Yes he's an example of hard work and dedication, but so are a lot of coaches on this staff. It's going to come down to coaching on and especially off the field.

If a person doesn't watch BRWU, I agree this would be stupid. But I watch, and found it delightful.

Starbucks sucks..... And apparently they also have some crappy people working for them just like every other company around the country.

Y.O.U.R.E. OLD.....

I found this this afternoon, not sure what thread to put it in. But I know I didn't want it to get buried in status updates, especially since you can't see the video from the front page.

#2 sounds like a pipe dream unless #1 happens....

Rafiki see what you did there....

Does it make me a bad person if this is the first thing that popped into my head:

Forgive me for not verifying: but aren't you also the poster that claimed these people were committing fraud by stealing SS numbers and Tax ID numbers to get jobs? How does one collect tax benefits with a fake "number"? The main benefit these people do get is public education, mostly funded from state property tax (at least in Nebraska). I don't care if they pay cash for rent, that money goes to the landlord, and when he pays the tax bill, it helps pay for school. Other than that we are making money off of them.

It's idiocy to show a real picture of yourself on the internet for the whole world to see (generally speaking), It is also extremely courageous to do it for a purpose!! Good for you, and thank you for contributing something that (I presume) nobody else can to this forum.

As we continue to confirm our own bias with arguments, I'm sure Ric would appreciate your support. Please add to the thread if you can.

We are all well aware.... Why was "deep state" not an issue the past 16 years? Why was "fake" media not an issue the past 16 years? Why was "transgender in the military" not an issue the past 16 years? Why was "insert Trump 'tagline here' not an issue the past 16 years? Trump is an entertainer. Some people think he is the hero, some think he is the heel. Some think his story is a comedy, some a tragedy, some an "odyssey". This man has made a political career of making something out of nothing, for better or worse. The sad thing is, it is affecting our citizens and especially our youth. I was recently out of town with some students and we were grabbing a bite to eat. The TV in the dining room had up the illustration from Hannity about the "Mueller Crime Family" that included pictures of Mueller, Comey, and others. This kid, a high school senior, mumbled about those "tricky dems". I said, "most of the people on that graphic are Republican..." His response was something along the lines of this thread and I told him it was okay to hold whatever opinion he wanted, as long as it was at least based on fact. Calling Mueller and Comey radical, liberal, antagonist really doesn't fit reality. Sorry....

The "deep state" is an interesting debate: "California contains the Badwater Basin in Death Valley, at 279 feet (85 m) below sea level, the lowest point in the United States; while Florida has the lowest high point, and Delaware has the lowest mean elevation.Florida is also the flattest state, with the smallest difference between its highest and lowest points." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_U.S._states_and_territories_by_elevation
