What an impressive win tonight.  The pirates came out playing hard from the very beginning.  We were able to score in the first minute of the game. Not even half way through the first half Christian had a great shot outside the box putting us up 2:0.  We kept control of the game for almost the entire first half.  Towards the end of the half PNG scored their first goal.  In the second half PNG came out and dominated the field.  They tied the game 2:2.  The two teams fought hard and battled at both ends of the field.  Towards the end of the second half Vidor got a second wind, and started pressuring PNG's defense, and gained control of the game.  The fans were really in it by this time, and started chanting and using their Vuvuzelas to cheer for their team.  With buckets and drums, students rallied behind their home players.  Jacob, the Pirates outstanding midfielder, managed to receive the ball at the top of the box, and with pace, control, and speed, made a perfect through pass to Jimmy.  Jimmy once again (similar to last game) flew by the defender and placed the ball between the goalie and near the post. What a goal.  This brought the score to 3:2 with the Pirates in the lead.  Despite PNG's best effort, they were not able to make a comeback, and Vidor walked away with a victory.  Great game by both teams.  Congratulations to both coaches for having their teams ready to play, and providing us with an awesome game.  Kudos to the Pirates back line for a great defensive game.

      Starting pitching has been shaky the last few weeks due to some injuries outside of Hagen Smith.  He goes tomorrow, so y’all should be fine

      West Virginia Sen. Joe Manchin leaves Democratic Party, registers as independent

      By tvc184 · Posted

      Manchin may get it but any mention of the radical left that wanted to get rid of the filibuster and end almost 220 years of history because the Democrats are mad?  The House and Senate are obviously different legislative bodies with entirely different election processes and rules for a reason. The House can vote on laws with a simple majority vote. The Senate put rules in place that it would make it much tougher to pass laws. Laws should be difficult to pass. The Senate is often the holdup of the right and left. It takes 60 votes to break the filibuster so any law will almost certainly require agreement at least in part, from opposing sides of an issue. Because they can’t get laws passed, the radical left is like a baby having a tantrum and wants to change over 200 years of history and make it potentially ridiculously easy to pass laws. I have seen current poll maps and it is possible for the Republicans to sweep into complete power in November but by the tiniest margin. That would possibly mean that a single vote margin in both houses could enact what you might call the radical right laws. There would be nothing that the Democrats could do to stop any legislation whatsoever if the left (they are all radical, minus Manchin) got their filibuster rule changed.  That is where the current filibuster comes into play as any new law would require several Democrats to agree with the majority Republicans and vice versa.  Do you want the potential for your radical right to have free rein as the radical left wants by killing the filibuster or is the radical left just as (if not more) dangerous? Let’s see if we have a history in this area? Oh yeah, the Democrats changed the rules in the Senate to allow federal judges to not have to overcome the filibuster. Obama was not getting his federal judge nominations passed and being angry, they changed the rules instead of nominating more moderate justices. They were warned that it would come back to bite them. They didn’t care and chose the nuclear option to change the rules. Oops! Any guess how Trump got all of his Supreme Court nominees passed against strong Democrat opposition? The Democrats got rid of the filibuster for federal judges after another tantrum   So when you are so worried about the radical right, are you equally concerned in what the radical left is always doing by changing rules and history which were put into place just for situations like we are in? So while Manchin gets it, what about his other 50 colleagues (49 + Harris)?  What concerns you more, Abbott and Paxton or the Democrats who want to make it to where if the Republicans do take over, they can go wild… at least in your mind?

      MODS please remove that ISD twitter link! I had no idea it would copy the whole posting. I only highlighted the portion about the venue change. Sorry about that!
