QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Apr 10, 2018 -> 02:02 PM) Nothing. The dude is a living saint. No he's not. But I don't think I can name anyone from either party who is.

QUOTE (Reddy @ Apr 10, 2018 -> 01:50 PM) Goodness. As a former professional actor, she had to at LEAST sign a release form to appear on TV. She likely also received a paycheck and had to go through rehearsals. You are making things up to fit your false narrative regardless of the fact that you have absolutely no idea what you're talking about. #MAGA You are saying he did not approach random strangers and have them sign off afterwards? Does the old 'Jay Walking' skit with Jay Leno have rehearsals too? How is this any different? I think you are making things up to fit your narrative regardless of the fact that you have absolutely no idea what you're talking about.

QUOTE (Reddy @ Apr 10, 2018 -> 01:51 PM) I have a question for you: even if you're right, would you then also concede that what Trump has done is disgusting and he should apologize for it? Sure. Tell me what Trump should apologize for.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Apr 10, 2018 -> 12:19 PM) Demeaning like grabbing them by the p****? What did Hannity say about that one? Oh yeah, just locker room talk. oh I see you can't defend Kimmel. You are deflecting. I was talking about Kimmel.

And who can Defend Kimmels Homophobic rant? “When your clown makeup rubs off on Trump’s ass, does it make his butt look like a Creamsicle,” “Don’t worry – just keep tweeting – you’ll get back on top! (or does Trump prefer you on bottom?) Either way, keep your chin up big fella..XO,” You used to tune in to these late night talk shows to get a few laughs from the monologue where any politician was equally game for what was usually good natured jokes. These shows now open with 15 minutes of spewing unfunny hatred. Who is entertained by this nonsense?

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Apr 10, 2018 -> 08:08 AM) Its not a double standard. Its not the same thing. That woman participated in a skit where she knew what they were going to do, she signed off on what happened and participated willingly. Weinstein forced women to have sex with him. Then, he used his lawyers and thugs to silence anyone he worried about ruining his reputation. NOT. THE. SAME. THING. You want to say it was tasteless? Fine. You dont have to like his skits. But nothing happened on that show that was illegal, nor was any of it forced. I don't think it was premeditated on her end. Sure she signed off on in. Money Talks. Its still demeaning to women. Does paying her off make it ok?

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Apr 10, 2018 -> 09:53 AM) It's a freaking skit. But I am glad it's over. Now Melania can get back to working on cyber bullying. You sound like a real gentleman. Are you really condoning what he did to the woman in the Gif?

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Apr 10, 2018 -> 08:10 AM) Apologize for what? A comedy sketch in which everyone was willing to participate? The fact you dont know the difference is pretty comical, but then again, so is posting a reddit link. I did appreciate how you qualified your entire post at the end. That is helpful. Naah I don't think That girl in the Gif Knew what was going on. That's demeaning to women. Adam Carolla looks disgusted judging by his body language. Stop Defending Harvey Weinstein Jr. At the very least he needs to get off his moral high horse. Find some other degenerate liberal with less history.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Apr 10, 2018 -> 06:45 AM) Its amazing he and his minions didnt care when those sketches aired ON TV over a decade ago. People are dumb. Tagged as mansplainer You can’t defend this https://i.redd.it/mwt19dw2uwq01.gif I don’t care if it’s old. Harvey Weinstein sr was a known pedo as well, for many years, but it didnt surface until now. So who cares if “America conscience” Jimmy kimmels stunts are from the past. He should apologize at the very least. But his minion fans don’t see the double standard. People are dumb.

QUOTE (Tony @ Jan 18, 2018 -> 12:57 PM) You didn’t answer my question. What are your Top 5 news outlets you get your news from? Sorry being bombarded and really need to get back to work. To answer your question. AP reports but I still watch major networks cbs, nbc,abc even though I don’t automatically trust initial reports.

QUOTE (GoSox05 @ Jan 18, 2018 -> 12:51 PM) "violence (yes I do think the violence from antifa is severaly underreported)" This is s*** I read online all the time. The violent antifa!!!!!! Meanwhile in America - Murders by white supremacists in US more than doubled in 2017 But you know a dude from antifa lit a garbage can on fire one time. If it’s white on black it’s called white supremist? How does one earn that title? What is black on white numbers at in comparison and do you have a label for that?

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Jan 18, 2018 -> 12:51 PM) Nothing says "independent voter" like parroting alt-right talking points... Alt right is the lesser of 2 evils at this moment. True liberalism has lost its way.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Jan 18, 2018 -> 12:45 PM) New trend, lack of compromise? They must have learned that from the right when Obama was President. Did you sleep through those 8 years? Because you can see it. Why is he so worried about funding the wall? How many times did he say Mexico will pay for the way, believe me? Well, get the funds from them if you need a wall so badly. Now the Dreamers are pawns, and the military won't be paid, although they will have been paid until Feb 1, if the government shuts down over Dreamers, who need to get out of the country because they are evil, unless a wall is built, which makes them OK. Do you know over 900 Dreamers actually serve in the military. I'm surprised Trump didn't go after them first. It’s not as if the border was not discussed during the Clinton admin. Also its been explained over and over the funds will not be coming directly as cash from Mexico. It will me in form of the trade deficit.

QUOTE (KagakuOtoko @ Jan 18, 2018 -> 12:40 PM) You are not fooling a soul on here brah. Just saying, you can save your breath. I was always a George Bush hater for many reasons I voted Ron Paul in 2008 and 2012 in the primaries I voted Obama(deporter in chief) in 2008 in the National , McCain was not an option I hate the national media including fox’s censorship of Paul in 08 and 12 I despise Ivy League schools with far left ideology I despise groups like antifa who I label as communists I think CNN is the worst media outlet and has become a joke that actually helps Trumps cause. I am an independent Voter who is open minded for 2020. But I will not be bullied, shamed, intimidated with my vote.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Jan 18, 2018 -> 12:00 PM) This thing about Trump and the porn star could get interesting. His wife could leave him over something like that. That would shake things up even more in this travesty of a presidency. Eh there have been Presidents who cheated on their wife DURING their presidency and likely after, and are still married. It’s possible Trump came clean and changed at some point. It’s not an unlikely scenario that she is able to forgive from something 12 years ago and continue to love him.

Nobody seems to get the point. As long as the media is s*** and people feel they are being lied to Trump will thrive. I mean come on folks. If Trump is as bad as we think he is why not play it straight above the fence? Why use photo shops, edit videos, peer pressure, shaming etc etc Nobody can answer this, specifically the tragedy that is CNN. I think they only help trumps popularity. “But FOX news” yeah they are s*** too. But I can tell you from an independent point of view CNN takes the cake. Stick with the issues guys. I was more inclined to vote liberal 20 years ago but all the white shaming, media deception, gang mentality, violence (yes I do think the violence from antifa is severaly underreported), I see them as communists. Say what you will about Trump, but until these things get fixed y’all don’t have much leg to stand on. Also a new trend I noticed with the left side is lack of compromise. You won’t admit being 1% wrong. It would be refreshing to hear if trump ever does something good because he has done good. I don’t agree with all the bullet points under the fake news awards but a more than a few items stick out in my mind as unquestionably true. The shame with networks like cnn though is even if he does lie, how can I believe it?

I don’t care if you’re independent, right or left. The media is a deceptive disgrace. CNN the worst. My only objective with the fake news awards is fox is not much better. (See 2008 2012 Ron Paul election coverage) But what we have here is a gold mine for the independent thinker not inside an echo chamber. I present the archive link instead of gop because GOP are scumbuckets and Trump broke the site. Hate him or love him but these are accurate awards given for the #fakenewsawards . This calling out of irresponsible reporting is the right thing to do. Of course the storylines will be attack on freedom of press. Well you know what? When our press is being funded by a handful of mega corps I think we need some checks and balances. Shame on anyone here who thinks intentionally deceptive reporting is good reporting. 1. The New York Times’ Paul Krugman claimed on the day of President Trump’s historic, landslide victory that the economy would never recover. 2. ABC News' Brian Ross CHOKES and sends markets in a downward spiral with false report. The rest https://web.archive.org/web/20180118010005/...ke-news-awards/

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Dec 15, 2017 -> 02:00 PM) This would be a fun discussion in basketball as well. without looking at the numbers I suspect the big 10 could be broken into 2 groups, historically speaking: Good Indiana Illinois Ohio ST Mich St Mich Maryland Iowa Purdue Wisconsin (until the late 90s they were in the BAD category) Minnesota Bad Penn st Northwestern Nebraska Rutgers

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Dec 15, 2017 -> 12:49 PM) OSU was still top tier in conference during the Bruce and Cooper era, yes. (bruce won a conference title every other year he was coach) In the Big Ten Michigan and OSU are 1 and 1a in almost everyone's mind. Notre Dame isnt in the Big Ten and Nebraska isnt in the top tier and may never be. OK, Did not see anything wrong with what you said until you spit that last part out. Ohio St has an impressive bowl streak of 5 straight years now. Nebraska had a 35 game bowl streak. Nebraska and Ohio st have the same amount of national titles in the past 60 years. Nebraska, no doubt, has had a rough patch for the past 15 years. But it was not too different from Ohio St 78-early 2000s. Come on now. Let me guess... You hopped the OSU bandwagon in 2002? I heard it all the last 50 years... Oklahoma is done, Alabama is done, Ohio St is done, USC is done now Nebraska? The way I see it sir, Nebraska will be back to winning just like the programs I just mentioned. For the LONG TERM I see Harbaugh and Frost as the 2 best recruiters and coaches in the big 10. My personal opinion is Meyer will leave within the next 2 years and OSU will jump down a tier. Maybe not as bad as 2011, but more resembling 78-2001. Not a championship team, but a good team. As for me, as an Illini fan, I am looking up at all these teams mentioned. sigh

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Dec 15, 2017 -> 08:03 AM) Bruce didn’t start until 1979. They won 7 conference titles between the two of them. Osu has a .733 winning percentage against conference opponents. Totally second tier. Are you saying that OSU from late 70s until early 2000s is the same as 2002 OSU to present? If not, Would that NOT make OSU in a different tier during that quarter of a century? OSU is a very nice program. But don't act like they are leaps ahead of programs like Michigan, Nebraska and Notre Dame. I am just making a point that for a fairly recent significant period of time OSU was 'good'. Like final rank 10-25 good with quite a few unranked seasons. Tressel and Meyer have no doubt put OSU back in the elite category. College football programs seem to have success in waves and OSU is not above that. I think Harbaugh and Frost will do the same for Michigan and Nebraska.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Dec 14, 2017 -> 06:22 PM) OSU is the #1 or 1a job in the big ten with zero debate, and easily one of the top in the country. Since the 1930's OSU has never gone a decade with at least 3 conference titles. Calling OSU second tier in your post is either an attempt at a bad troll job or delusion. OSU is no doubt having a very successful 15 years. But don’t act like the Bruce cooper eras were all that great. That’s what tier 2 is. Nothing wrong with it. But that’s where OSU generally was mid 70s til early ‘00s.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Dec 14, 2017 -> 01:48 PM) Nobody said that. I did appreciate your posts on how PSU and OSU were second tier though. That was fun I said that Urban Meyer would probably be leaving within 2 years and that OSU will fall into the next tier. That's just speculation on my part as a college football fan. I've seen Alabama, Oklahoma, Notre Dame, Nebraska all go through droughts. It is bound to happen to OSU imo. If you think the OSU job is the #1 job in all of football, then maybe he stays. I'm not so sure it is.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Dec 14, 2017 -> 09:14 AM) Nebraska currently has the second to last ranked recruiting class in the Big Ten for 2018. From what I see it’s not lack of quality but quantity. Pretty sure they will fill things out and level out in high 20s early 30s in the nation. Just pointing out many were saying frost won’t be able to bring in blue chip recruits to Nebraska. When he has already. A qb at that. If you can consistently recruit bluechip qbs you will eventually content. The big 10 west has been mediocre but it won’t be a surprise to see Nebraska on top most years going forward. Not sold on Iowa or Wisconsin long term.

yOu cAn’T gEt BLuE ChIp ReCrUiTs tO CoMe tO NEbrAsKa Frost just got his qb.(Adrian Martinez) I have a feeling with Mariota and Milton on his resume+ being a decent college qb in his day, Frost will have no trouble recruiting qbs. Bright future in Lincoln and it’s only been a couple weeks since he took the job. Very impressed. Hopefully lovie can up his game so we can get a winner in champagne.

As an independent. I don’t see trump as perfect. But my problem is that most people who complain about Trump were pro Hillary. Naturally. However she was a bad candidate whether you wear red glasses , blue glasses or independent glasses. Most Bernie bros I have spoken with were more anti Hillary than trump. I could only take a Hillary voters opinion on trump with a tiny grain of salt. I do enjoy conversations with Bernie fans though. I could also respect those who are in the “they both suck” group.
