why not write about the kid’s talents instead of his shortcomings.

Are you talking about?
"QB commit Heinrich Haarberg is a sponge when it comes to learning"
This is a compliment. It's writing about his talent.

I think a fair portion of West Virginia would fall into this category. It's just a lifestyle some of those folks choose.
That's part of why I was thinking about it - I've been reading Hillbilly Elegy and being reminded of home, and also learning a good deal about hills people culture.

Reality is, there are some things about motivation that are involuntary and subconscious. For all of us.
When we ran track, occasionally we would run 200's in practice and our coach would get us to really treat them like the real deal, but we'd always run them faster if we had someone the same speed next to us than if we ran next to someone clearly slower or faster.
AM had no real competition and he had a lot of 'savior praise' from his coach, the media, and the fans his sophomore year. Optimism was sky high, we ended his freshman year on a huge momentum run, and the hype and mood were unbelievably positive.
Even if he's the most mentally determined player on the team, that will still have some kind of involuntary effect on your drive. That's not really an excuse, but rather an argument that we shouldn't (yet, at least) be overly worried about this imo.

I would love to know (probably impossible to get good data on) the percentage of people in poverty who just choose it as a simpler life to live.
It's obviously a small amount, and I am not victim blaming anyone, I've just always been curious at how much of poverty (even if it's less than 1%) is at will.

An example is pharmaceuticals which is one of the most regulated industries in the land. And unsurprisingly they keep merging into fewer companies.
Wow. Before your post I thought all regulations were good and it was impossible for there to be such a thing as bad regulations. Thank you for changing my mind wow.

@funhusker We've known for a century that it's not a free market when a cartel controls it. It's long past time to revoke Silicon Valley's immunity just like Industry and Wall Street had to be reigned in.
Guess what prevents cartels from taking control of the market? I promise you you willl not believe the answer.
Reguations.

• Regressed offensive line
• Unpredictable snaps
• Loss of receiving corps
• No drive of competition
• Injury
That's a bad 5 factor combo of performance degradation. If he stays healthy I think he'll rebound in a big way, assuming the pieces around him take another step as well.

the shutdown of parts of the economy may have slowed the spread temporarily but only for maybe 30-45 days.
It is everywhere already.
So you agree it worked until we stopped doing it. Thanks.

The mitigation (social distancing, masks, shutdowns, etc) did not work to stop it
Seems like it worked pretty well until everyone stopped doing those things

Yeah, I guess UA hurting. It seemed like they had made all the right moves from when they started until now but I guess they have made some poor choices.
They spread themselves too thin and they've completely, 100% missed out on the renaissance of urban streetwear culture that Nike and Adidas have been crushing. Plus they haven't been able to successfully capitalize on any of their big celebrity endorsements.
As much grief as I've given Adidas over the years, they've really turned it up over the last 5-6 years.

Oklahoma hasn't won a National Title in 20 years.
Notre Dame hasn't won a National Title since 1988
Penn State hasn't won a National Title since 1989 - when they were still independant.
Georgia hasn't won a National Title since 1980
Michigan hasn't won a National Title since 1948.
All of them were bad until they got a good coach and then they weren't.
Players go where the programs invest in them. Nebraska invests in the players as much as anyone. We will get talent. Gotta have a staff who can evaluate and coach it.
Oklahoma has made the playoffs four times, and has won 13 conference championships in 20 years.
Notre Dame has made the national championship and playoff in the last 10 years.
Penn State has a conference championship and 3 NY6 bowl appearances in the last 5 years.
Georgia has made one national championship game, and won the SEC in the last 5 years.
Michigan won a national championship in 1997 lol
All of them outrecruit the hell out of us, none of them have had 20 year stretches like we've had, and your selective critique of the post you quoted misses the point.

No it isn't.
In one scenario they completely made this whole thing up for the attention.
In the other they thought something had been put in their drinks and then it was discovered later to have not been done on purpose. Kind of like the Nascar driver who found the "noose" in his garage.
In one scenario they completely made this whole thing up for the attention.
In the other, they had bad but non-harmful milkshakes that got dumped and replaced, and then they completely made this whole thing up for the attention.
y'all are ignoring the key factor here that the officers didn't get sick but the NYPD said that they were poisoned and got sick.

Because there was some speculation that there may have not been anything wrong with the drink even. That would put the guilt on the officers.
I must be missing something about the point being made still because the guilt is still put on the officers the exact same amount.

My only point was, that at the start, there was a taste of bleach/cleaning solution in their drinks. It was accidently there, but it was there nonetheless. The 3 cops did not start out their day by deciding they were going to ruin Shake Shack with BS claims of poisoning....
This is true but...
who cares? Why is it a 'point' you made?

there are things going on that just shouldn't be supported and actually go against their cause.

But it does matter. They lied. But their lie was based on the fact that they tasted cleaning solution in their drinks. They didn't wake up that morning and say "let's f&ck with Shake Shack today."
What's the real difference between
"Hey our drinks taste a little funny, thanks for fixing them and getting us new ones. Let's lie about being poisoned and getting sick from this."
vs
"Hey shake shack hasn't done anything wrong at all and these smoothes taste good. Let's lie about being poisoned and getting sick from this."

Very few never-Trumpers can acknowledge that President Trump has been consistent in his foreign policy of no more endless wars and fewer foreign entanglements. I've had plenty of Ds who either cannot or will not see that Trump's policy is nothing like either President Bush.
I would agree with you except that you're omitting how many tens of thousands of innocent civilians he's killed with drone strikes, assassinating that foreign general, and abandoning the Kurds to slaughter.

We're talking about two different points in time in this thread with two different outcomes of the conversation.
I didn't mention my percentage (which obviously was a guess and not a fact) until recently. I mentioned my definition of what a bad cop was near the beginning of this thread.
Once again, you were part of both conversations...so why are you acting like you don't understand the passage of time and different conversations?
Because I never saw anyone disagree with your assertion that cops who see other cops do bad stuff and say nothing are also bad cops.

Deaths/infections per capita my dude. That means that the numbers are adjusted to control for population size.
You know our President has been trying for months to get us to test less, right? Also that our testing numbers per capita have caught up a good amount but spent way too much time wayyyyyy behind.
In March the US had ONE corona virus test per every 1,000,000 people. South Korea had 2,000 tests per every 1m. Italy had 386. Switzerland 214, UK 199, etc. We had one.
