TFA was not really good at all. It did well and is see positively by its of people because it was a connection to the original trilogy. The story is not good, and unlike the originals, you feel no connection to the character arcs. They are just forced and there is nothing to buy into. Once t...
It is technically still a vaccine despite the court ruling but simply an ineffective one. Reality is that the first strain of Covid-19 was blocked by the vaccines, but unfortunately and expectedly as has always been the problem with corona viruses was their rapid mutation (much like the flu). ...
That graph is just awfully presented. No axis labels, intentionally misleading with the extent and doesn’t even say what it represents. Is it monthly new jobs created? Perhaps there is an increase in foreign born jobs compared to native born, but that is still significantly lower in total new job op...

[quote]It’s so weird to me that they expect these girls to play an entire season of NCAA Bball, play the entire tournament, then get drafted and immediately continue playing from May until September. That’s an extreme workload for rookies.[/quote] They play less than half the games of an NBA seas...
[quote]Malcom X[/quote] Please don’t compare Malcolm X to any of the others listed. Perhaps look into why he was killed before you spit this garbage. Guy was killed because he didn’t continue to toe the whiter is pure evil lines of the NOI and instead started teaching that all are equal. ...
This is a stupid way to look at it, particularly without qualifiers. So a group of people more heavily leaning towards major co-morbidities showed greater death than those without as many co-morbidities? I am shocked I tell you! Shocked! These gotcha type studies are so stupid on both sid...

Jump never should have been put in and it was a stupid decision with so many other arms available. ...
Live action remakes have been bad but what actual sequels have been successful for Disney? Almost all went straight to video back in the day. The only two that I can think of that were successful and not Pixar films were Frozen 2 (pretty mediocre) and maybe “Ralph Breaks the Internet” which more...
Seeing the huge number of potheads putting so much focus and stress on this in this thread is hilarious. The man taking away their precious weed fix to get high. :lol:...
[quote]Nothing binds thd kids to colleges, bug the old rules prevented them from taking advantage of what they accomplished.[/quote] Then by all means go the minor league, NBDL or semipro football route and get your money. Guess what? They wouldn’t get jack if they played in those leagues and ar...
[quote]The bad guys aren’t the players. It’s the Athletic Departments who got big and fat and greedy.[/quote] The players are just as guilty. They want to not play school and make money? Go pro and join a minor league. Go overseas. It’s not that hard and the ncaa did not keep them from those opt...
[quote]They are not really here for an academic education…[/quote] Then go to a pro developmental league and stop making a mockery of the university and college system. Plain and simple. Letting in many of these players that can’t even read into the college is embarrassing, but hey he can dunk a ...
[quote]That's not true at all.[/quote] Yes it is. Again. They are being compensated beyond almost any other student for what they are doing. They are on scholarship to get an education and they are well compensated in that area. Free tuition, housing, food, nutritionist, trainers, tutors, accommo...
Athletes can suffer the consequences and thank their greedy fellow athletes for this. Again, just remove sports from universities outside of club sports and let these “athletes” go play in their own pro leagues minor leagues. Let the NFL and NBA pay for their own youth leagues. Not defending...
[quote]I’m not saying that it isn’t time to re-evaluate. I’m only saying the program is better than the naysayers are claiming and that the resources aren’t as good as they claim. If you go chasing glory, the more likely outcome is to fall even further into true mediocrity. LSU is not getting a prov...
[quote]Being Top 8 4x in 12 years & still earning multiple more Super Regional appearances is not "mediocre". By definition she's got her program in the Top 16 more often than not. There are 250 NCAA D1 softball teams.[/quote] Again, the resources and support available at LSU are significantly m...
with her last coming 7 years ago. She is what she is, and a championship coach she is not. No SEC conference titles. No SEC Tournament titles. Again, given the resources available to her, she has done nothing of note when it comes to the post-season and even with a bunch of regular season wi...

You knew it was coming when they showed he was 0-17 in the tournament and stupid pitching after being up 0-2 to a walk. Bad coaching and pitching, but early in the game. ...
[quote]1. The degree isn’t free. Playing big-time college football is hard work.[/quote] Your point? They likely aren’t going to college based on their scholastic potential if even admitted at all. Kids that get academic scholarships earned their free ride ahead of time. Athletes earn it whil...
