Glad to see some of this happening.  I'm sick of the anti-american  and anti-Israel nonsense that's been allowed at some of the most prestigious colleges our country has to offer.  In this case Columbia has had 108 student protestors arrested and trespassed, with Barnard college then suspending them from class and housing.  This younger generation thinks they can do whatever they want.  I'm glad the tides are starting to turn and these kids are starting to get a lesson in what happens when you act like entitled idiots.  

I know that I'm not as conservative as some of you guys on here, but for the life of me I can't figure out why there are so many thousands of anti-american foreigners up in the northeast.  For me, the very first time you get caught participating in one of these protests, especially if you're burning flags, holding a sign criticizing america, etc., you're deported if you don't have citizenship.  If you have a visa, it's revoked.  If you weren't born here, you're sent to where you were born and not allowed back.  I have no issue with diversity, but why on earth do we allow people to come here who hate us?  Send them back.

How do you know that Harrison is not a big opportunity? I don't really know him, but maybe just maybe he is what Liberty needs. I was just wondering what you know about Harrison that doesn't make him a big opportunity. 

I don't know who the other coach was, but this guy has no head coaching experience that I can find, and minimal high school experience.  after graduating from college he spent a year each in defensive coaching positions on bad college teams before moving to high school.  Not sure what he did from 2019-2022. He spent last year at cleveland, who was terrible.  He may be great, and I don't care one way or another, but if Liberty passed up a coach with a history of success for a virtual unknown with no previous success at the high school or college level I'd be pretty frustrated if I was a panther fan.

Leclerc has cost us 2-3 games already, and lost his closer spot already.  The bright spot in the pen has been Kirby Yates.  He took over the closer role this series and saved his first chance, then today when the rangers scored in the top of the 9th he shut down Detroit in the bottom of the 9th to get the win.  He’s 2-0 on the year with a save, pitching 7.1 innings giving up only 1 hit so far with a 0.00 ERA.  Hopefully he’s found the form he had for the Padres from 2017 to 2019.  If so he could be elite.

New day same story another blown game by relievers.5-4 sweep Braves

Rangers and stros both having this issue.  Hader did pitch a 1-2-3 inning today, striking out the side.  I was pretty upset the rangers didn’t sign him, but not at this point with how he’s pitched so far.  

Not sure why they’re able to do it now, but we delete them as soon as we see them.  It’s a pain for sure.

It was RFK, jr making the assertion in the video.  You didn’t recognize him?  Or, are you calling him a liar?  Or did you not even listen to him?

I need something besides a sound bite from a politician.  You have some proof of what he’s saying?  I can give you a video of Joe Biden saying we have the strongest economy in the world.  Do you believe that?  Regardless, it doesn’t really matter.  If it’s true, it was done under Trump’s presidency, meaning you should be behind it 100%.  

You’re going to have to come with a real source before I even think about getting into a conversation with you on the topic.  Legitimately go look at some of the other stuff they post on their Twitter.

Thought the same thing but once again why are these referees making these questionable penalties in the box with such little time on the clock? That game should have went to PK’s not handed to San Elizario after 2OT’s

while i agree, I can at least see how he made this call, even though I felt like it was soft.  But for all I know the keeper fully hit the forward in the face.  Couldn't really tell from the video.  The call that went against Lumberton was atrocious.  You can't even make the argument that it was a judgement call.  It was clearly not a foul, and the ref clearly blew it.

Which begs the question: what was this guy doing in a parking lot in the middle of the night with three young children in the back seat?  thankfully none of them were hurt.

Uncle Spidey with 4 consecutive positive posts on LU baseball. You ole softy, you!  

I have goose bumps 😀😀

Unrelated, but Navasota just conceded a questionable penalty with 2 min left in their second OT vs San Elizario.  Lost 1-0. Felt like poetic justice after they only advanced because of a blatant dive drawing a penalty in the final minute against lumberton boys. 

Great season for the raiders.  Celina just that much better, not unlike how lumberton is against all of their region.

Png athletes are average and coaching carries them. Joseph would win anywhere he goes but png wouldn't win with just any coach

PNG athletes (at this time) are still better, and more importantly, bigger, than what Nederland has.  Joseph made a difference there, but he came into a loaded program as well that pretty much everyone expected to show a lot of improvement.  He would not go to Nederland and turn them into state contenders in a year or two like he was able to do at PNG, although they would without a doubt improve.

So many games in playoffs decided by questionable PK’s this year. Lumberton boys the latest victim. IMO a pk should not be awarded unless there is a clear flagrant attempt by the defender to play through the body or an apparent handball that is outside of the body and blocks a shot on goal. These outcomes have been decided by the referees giving away cheap goals

The lumberton play was the Navasota player trying a little back heel or something and the lumberton defender poking the ball away.  The Navasota player then fell down like his legs had been swept out from under him, even though there was zero contact.  The ref was literally right there.  I sure hope he went back and watched the play so he can feel bad about his call.  

Just went back and watched the Lumberton game, and they got absolutely screwed.  Less than a minute and a half left, BLATANT dive inside the box with zero contact, and the ref is 6 ft away and he gives a penalty.  Should’ve been a card for simulation.  Navasota tied it on the PK and won the shootout later 

Rangers beat Houston again as the nightmare start for the stros continues.  I’m not mad.

Bradford pitched a gem last night in the 10-2 win over houston. 
7.2 innings, 2 hits, 1 run, 4 K’s, 0 walks 

 

I didn’t trust him coming in, but he’s been dang solid through two starts.  

Navasota wins the shootout, and advances to state.  Great season for the raiders! 

GCM wins 2-1 in OT. 
 

lumberton going to a shootout 

Lumberton tied at 1-1 with Navasota in OT as well 

I consider Goose Creek Memorial local as well since they’re in Nederland/PNGs district.  My good friend coaches them.  They just scored in the last 5 minutes to send their game to OT against Magnolia West.

Such as the "manufactured" issue of trans men dominating women's sports, the right just won't shut up about anything, will they?

You're failing to see where the real problems stem from.

There are multiple “real” problems.  The one currently being discussed is right wing “news sources”, as well as legitimate politicians, regurgitating patently false information which whips the masses up into a frenzy.  That’s a really big problem, and one that republicans should be striving to clean up, but are instead perpetuating.  The attitude I often see, and which based on this post you seem to hold as well, is “it doesn’t matter if it’s fake, because whatever they do is way worse”

Not everyone on the right is outraged about this, don't make it more than it is.

 

ironic choice of words there, but I get what you’re saying.  But if it’s not one manufactured issue it’s another for many on the right.

More "misleading" news.

Starting to feel like the "right" has become the "left" in this department.

smh

it's crazy, considering the whole "fake news" craze, and all of the "low information voter" insults that have been thrown out over the last 6 or so years.  Because so much of what gets the right outraged is either misleadingly presented or completely false these days.  Don't get me wrong, there's plenty to be upset about, but it's tough when half of what you read is patently false in some way.
