    The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel S1 just got released on Amazon Prime! Promising pilot earlier this year.

    1) I don't actually feel that (see: emoji). I think it was fairly obvious I was joking.

    2) If I wanted to "score a point for reverse racism", there are thousands of much better (actual) examples  I could find.

    3) The Giants are still dumb for thinking Geno will be better than Eli.

    At first I was like, "yeah I could see Eli getting benched".  Then I was all like "Geno Smith?  Aw hell naw".

    Welcome, interim HC Trent Bray! :)  That's pretty cool.

    I mean, if for some reason they strike out on a number of choices, we could do worse than keep Bray around. Obviously I don't expect that to happen. We'll get Frost.

    Sorry, really. I’ve got contagious football depression. Maybe it would help if I got rid of that Squidward pic. Nah, I’ll wait until there is something to be happy about like the announcement shortly following the Iowa game....and then the next one when UCF’s games are finished. Brought a little smile to my face just thinking about it.

    I commend Stanley and Spielman having great statistical seasons, and playing hard throughout the season.  However, if either or both of them break the single season receiving yardage record, it would be an empty record to me.  I know individual records should be commended, but when they are accomplished during such poor team seasons, I find it hard tto celebrate.  I am much more of a team outcome kind of guy.

    Totally awesome.  Hopefully Stan returns for his Senior season.

    It's a mad, mad world.

    With that said we were told not to post political things here and if I remember it was to result in a ban...soooooo...mods?

    So when we see something wrong, unjust, or otherwise unethical we shouldn't speak about it until it actually hurts people?

    You can do whatever you like but no, I do not think that we should do anything above speaking on it because "it" isn't much of a thing. 

    What is unjust or unethical? Nothing has been done.

    Conservative and patriotic Poles have marched and joined together in revelry on Independence Day for decades now. These marches have always had a right leaning tilt and this year some Nazis showed up and hijacked it not unlike how anarchists will often hijack left-leaning protests.  Painting this as some kind of "~60,0000 Nazi March" is disingenuous and false. 

    What do you want? These people to stop celebrating because Nazis are around? You want them to assault the Nazis? You want the police to arrest or segregate the Nazis? Those options all sound quite Nazi-ish and would be unjust, wrong, and unethical. In a democracy you have to hear people you disagree with, even when those people have some really outlandish and offensive things to say. You beat them through discourse, not violence or silence so if anything seeing people from a broad spectrum of beliefs duking it out relatively peacefully in Poland is a good thing. 

    Of course the policies these people want are bad. I don't like them, they wouldn't be good but they'll never become a thing because there are very very few of these people - in the hundreds within Poland itself with maybe a few thousand associates and they're mostly dumb eastern kids trying to be edgy. 

    Media in the West and in Russia has a vested interest in smearing Poland and PiS with this Nazi label. The West wants Poland to back off of its anti-refugee stance and Russia wants to paint any Nationalist group (which are almost always anti-Russia) in a former SSR as Fascist as they have done in Ukraine. It's the same brush with which they paint all rebel groups as ISIS or Al-Qaeda in Syria, it's easier for them to sell what they're doing in those countries if they're crusading against the obvious bad guys.

    Typing the word 'mod,' 'admin' or some other variation doesn't bring stuff to our attention.  :thumbs

    That said, this is probably better served for the P&R forum. Locking.

    Here's a fun sentence: "Syria has decided to sign the Paris agreement on climate change, the world’s final functioning state to do so."

    This status update seems vaguely political.

    the worlds final functioning state?   i think there is another country that erased their signature.  or is that state not considered functioning anymore?

    zoogs

    Ah, that's right: the US is excluded because it did sign but has not yet withdrawn.

    I do apologize for the vaguely political tweet; it seemed like an extremely notable development and observation, though. US aside, I knew there were "a lot" of signatories to the Paris climate treaty. I didn't know it was literally everybody.

    Love this from Steve Kerr on Pod Save America: ""Circumstances dictate whether people need to be outspoken or not." 


    He and Popovich set a really strong example. Way to go, NBA coaches!

    The board should add 100 points of rep points that said that 7-5 or worse would be the record.  :-)

    Buckle up for what?  This season is what it is and we have known that since week 2 but week 3 for sure.
