While it hasn’t generated the kind of chemistry and discipline to get regular wins yet, Fizz seems to have the young vets performing, at least in the past week or two, at or beyond career bests. He is also getting more focused and impactful play from the youngins. He moved everyone in that 10 man rotation through the starting lineup, and while our pups cycled back out the experience gave them firsthand knowledge of what they will have to do to take and hold that job. You see it in the performances of Trier, Frank, Mitch, and Knox over the last couple of games. It will be interesting to see what becomes of Mario. Can he rise to par? If so, in what capacity?

I think we can stay as close as 4 to 6 spots off the bottom record while still competing and improving, especially if KP stays under wraps into the spring. It’s low odds Zion territory, but it’s still a neighborhood where a team can find seriously helpful talent.

Most importantly, if we keep things up, we’ll be fun to watch all season.

Josh,

Red has the funniest way of admitting that you owned him on school funding and federal involvement.

We needed the positive vibes.

We still got to figure out how to close games, but building a huge lead prior to the 4th Q seems to be one way to do it.

Does it strike any of the Trump apologists in here strange #45 isn’t mad at the guys who killed Kashoggi but is pissed with the guys who killed Osma bin Laden?
For me, I long for the day when this sort of thing is shocking again.

It will only be a couple of months till the ladies and gentlemen of the House neuter the sick beast eating the executive.

This kind of thing is only shocking when we perceive the President to be a good person who holds American values and takes his or her job seriously. None of these things are remotely true about trump.

As Kiid and Red have warned us repeatedly about the dangers posed to their way of life by a educated populace, it’s no surprise they have trained their guns on the engine that won us the Cold War and catapulted us toor moment of global dominance, the American public school.

Isnt that what a party leader does, fights to gain advantages in elections if its legal? Nancy Pelosi is such an incompetent idiot.

Don’t worry Luee. When she saves the USA from fascism you can still move to Brazil.

The fact Red won’t swallow and gets very bent when we discuss is how unpopular his crook party actually is.

Dems are actually more popular than their massive victories this cycle imply, especially when compared to the national embarrassment and political cancer that is the GOP.

She will be locked up for her epic graft. Her method of communication only serves as evidence of intent.

Now that trump has folded on Acosta’s press pass, CNN would like dumpy’s tax returns by way of apology. As would we all.

Good values like that are why there aren’t enough republicans to win an election in Orange County.

Hopefully the good sense extends to Mississippi in its Senate runoff and to Georgia for is Secretary of State.

Mario may be bigger, but Troy defends bigger and smaller players better not to mention ones his own size. Mario may have the rep, but Troy has actually hit threes and is shooting a nice percentage this year. He’s a low mistake player who knows his lane and brings relentless energy to his work. It’s never bad to give your coach more actuall defenders to work with. Both guys are up after this season so it’s less about future and more about who has their shit together now. Dotson and Knox provide similar play, but with what we’re doing Troy could slot between them or shift among them in tandem. Mario just accentuates the negative without consistently adding positives. Not the end of the world. Next year, unless things change, I’d still prefer we pursue Troy over Mario though we’ll be competing with more bidders.

Perry goofed big letting Troy Williams go for Mario. We lost the better player on the better contract.

The GOP is also dying hard among all those younger than 44. I’m less concerned with the GOP emerging with some kind of future than with the damage it inflicts through its thrashing as it is finally run to ground.

For Red’s crowd, a man’s license for repercussion free sexual adventurism is the payoff for falling in line behind stupid terrible leaders. Otherwise, what’s the point?

This core belief covers assaulting and assaulters all up and down the chain of the power structure, from the Supreme Court to the student union, from the news desk to the prison cell, from the reservation to the sorority house.
