OOTB's Political Thread . ..

Okay, from the BBC link:

"Facebook did not completely ban sharing of the article, but instead limited how much its algorithm automatically shared it to other people for a week, while third-party fact-checkers tried to verify the reporting.

So while people could post the article and discuss it, it was less likely to spread organically to new users."

That hardly sounds like silencing the public, to me.

That doesn't even address his claim.

He's still looking for his Infowars login credentials...

Final preseason notes...

Thanks, G! We appreciate the fact that your eye test is one we can believe in! You haven't said anything i didn't expect but it is good to see the confirmation. I have a little more trust in the coaching staff, but I understand the hesitancy! Just like players have developed well, I think our coaches have too!

This is gonna be a fun ride!

Starting Positions - Whose to Lose?

EC, RJ, Cade, JWit, JWash! I see no issue with Cade guarding 3s either. He is more athletic than peeps are giving him credit for AND he can offset pure speed with anticipation, footwork, studying tendencies, and proper rotations! Why intentionally give away size and the rebounding that comes with it? I would bet Cade sees more time at 3 than 4, but if the freshmen push him into the post, that sounds like a great problem to have! We spend way too much time focused on starters when who plays at crunch time and who gets the most minutes are much more important!

He brings up a great point. I’ve said since 2020 that the cheat came in many forms, some of which are verified at this point. Frankly, I’m disappointed that Vance doesn’t come out and say, “no, I don’t believe that Trump lost a legitimate election. If you’re asking about the 2020 election, I don’t consider it legitimate but he did (air quotes) lose (air quotes)that one.”

Also, are you being homophobic by attacking Vance for potentially hiding his sexual orientation?

Lol. There was one guy and all of his peabrained cult followers who tried to illegitimately win an election. If you actually believe "it was rigged"; well, you can't coach stupid.

I couldn't care less about Vance being a closeted gay man. Just like I couldn't care less about Tim Scott and Lindsey Graham being in the closet. Just weird that they choose to pretend so homophobic people will support them.

Can you point out the board members in this video for reference?

Okay... I have no interest in reading that.

I was just trying to understand what relevance his sexuality (repressed or otherwise) has on his comments and perspective in the clip. He sounds like EVERY OTHER POLITICIAN when they're backed into a corner and given a Yes or No option. Almost all of them are former lawyers, or have extensive experience in adjudication complexities. The last place they ever want to be is anywhere near Yes or No. Those require commitment.

He just has such a high level of disdain for all women; it really comes through every time he's that close to one.

JV Vance is just such an unlikable weirdo. He definitely wears the scars of being a closeted gay man pretending to be otherwise.

He doesn't believe Trump is going to win. He has never thought Trump really had a chance:

I don’t think he is going to win so much that I was willing to bet you and you chickened out (in addition to you chickening out with @Hark_The_Sound_2010 ). I reckon I was just trying to lose a bet that you apparently wanted no part of.

I’ll offer the bet again. He can’t win. It’s free money for you. You in?
