Any Collagen Takers Here?

I’m not familiar with it but in my experience whenever you delve into these supplements and so on you realize that it’s all just a wannabee substitute for eating properly. *You gotta look at what hundreds of thousands of years of evolution have made our brains and bodies dependent upon. *Not being judgmental, I ate a Cajun filet biscuit for breakfast and will drink too much alcohol this evening.
*this is why I often synch with you in spite of some glaring differences of opinion. You hit the nail squarely on the head here, and it's really just common sense.

*We have to consider our mental well-being as well as our physical health. This seems like a healthy balance to me.

As for collagen, the collagen broken down in the slow and low heat of BBQ (or braising or any other method of breaking it down), especially if supplemented and catalyzed by the addition of apple cider vinegar, is the key to a long and happy life. Serious. Collagen and vinegar is good for you. In supplement form, maybe not. Who knows.

OOTB Carolina Basketball Discussion Thread

Once he figures it out - and I'd bet it's sooner rather than later, he's going to average 15ppg in his sleep. He reminds me a lot of Joe Forte, can just score from any level and has so many ways to beat you. Until then, yeah, it's gonna be ugly at times.

He won't, but I hope we get him for 2 seasons. He can replace the scoring we lose from RJ.
I would dearly love to see us with a clone of Forte.

This "borders" on pure comedy gold. Your referenced tweet goes back to that same SOP of confusing things. It says that Trump was "asking Congress to pass the same border bill he now opposes". So, the only thing that can be concluded from that claim is you are now asserting that Trump is better than Nostradamus.

Think about it for a second.

If it was the same border bill that Trump asked for, that means he asked for a bill that provided funding, literally, over 2/3's of which was for billions and billions and billions of dollars for two separate wars that were going to start in the NEXT administration. Trump was predicting both the war in Ukraine and the Middle East. Damn, that's good. Glad you've come to the light, but that's more ability than any of us would ever have given the guy.

As per SOP, you've taken something and intentionally confused it with another. No one has any problem whatsoever with the migrant worker program where non-citizens come here to work in relatively low paying, labor intensive jobs such as agriculture harvest. There have been many calls to expand and streamline that process. The issue are criminals who illegally enter our country, some caught and released after using appropriate buzz words and phrases, and many, many others never accounted for.

Whatever the sob story and the shitty conditions of their home life, it doesn't change the facts that there is a legal way to immigrate and there are illegal ways. We have immigration problems and there needs to be many changes in things, but don't piss on our legs and claim it's raining. No one is talking about removing "migrant workers". Oh, and you may also not know this little detail: the way a migrant worker program works is people come, they do a job, and they go home. They don't sneak in and stay.
Again.

You have a candidate who is running on throwing legal migrants out of this country. If you remove illegal workers only, it will still cause a financial disaster.

World series

I've watched more baseball in the last 2 years than the previous like 10 because of the pitch clock and making the shifts illegal. Those two rule changes have made the game so much better than it was in the 2010's when it was 4 hour games with pull hitters grounding into short right field for an out because the team had 7 guys on the right side.

And obviously watching this year for my Yankees. Ohtani is ridiculous though. 50/50 and a top 10 pitcher? Just absurd.
What shifts are illegal? Like shifting for a left handed hitter? I didn’t know that. Evidently I don’t keep up very well. Lol

I haven’t watched a baseball game in years. Maybe decades. I do follow all the major sports and read the headlines and keep up with the big stories so I am fascinated by this years match up and plan to watch. The two most storied franchises each with a generational talent looks interesting. Anyone else gonna watch?

There were no words, only the stumped look on his dumb face when he was put on the spot.

After all of his self-righteous promotion of the Bible, from talking about it at his rallies to holding up an upside-down copy in front of St. John's Church in Washington to selling his own overpriced version of scripture, do you reeeally believe he wouldn't gladly show off and share his favorite passages if he knew any? Maybe Proverbs 22:7 or 1 Samuel 2:7?

Just a guess but ol' Joe may have been thinking, I really have to shit right now and if I break into dance I'll probably pull a Trump and crap myself.

More to the point is your refusal, or should I say your inability, to see in your candidate what is glaringly obvious. He's a shame, a con artist, a habitual liar. If you believe he avoided answering the question because the Bible is "very personal" to him, and I have to assume that you do believe that, that means you could be the dumbest person in the room.
What I believe is that you made a claim that wasn't true, were called on it, doubled down, were called on it, and finally admitted you were speculating based on your belief about your ability to discern facial expressions versus your prior claims regarding what he said/didn't say. So, you still haven't addressed that you were wrong and were making false claims to support your own speculation and have now sought the refuge of trying to make it personal about the person who laid out your bias.

I have and will continue to admit that Trump is a flawed person. He is also a brilliant marketer and entrepreneur. None of that changes that your anointed successor to the throne also is deeply flawed. But you fail to see or acknowledge any of those issues. At the end of the day, we have two people neither of which should be held up for sainthood. But it's not about putting a person in charge who is the best person, it's about their policies. That you can't see that when you claim to be able to see inside someone's head based on their facial expression is just sad.

Cue the standard crotch remora reference.
