The Next President is...
At least one per day, usually more, never respond. Technology continues to evolve and change the game. I think the DNC mastered that first when Obama ran, but the GOP caught up. Recently, I was asked to run for local office and seriously considered it over the summer but the BS associated convinced me otherwise. I met numerous times with the local "leaders" who wanted me to run. They have an interesting machine and the local GOP group is moving away from flyers and TV ads with a huge focus on geo-fenced direct engagement. There is so much data on each one of us out there and the software uses it to know party affiliation, likeliness to vote, key demographic and geographic data points. From what they showed me (which I take with a grain of salt), in the last local election they used half the budget of the incumbent and defeated him by 15 points. For what it is worth, they still believe the attack ad sways voters. One of the reasons I dipped out was I told them I would not resort to attack ads under any circumstance.

In this case I think it could have been worse if he continued inside. They already charged him with fleeing and eluding so they would have claimed exigent circumstances and knocked the door down with guns drawn.

It was several people....one wants Osama to come back and bomb the U, another sent all the racist stuff to Williams. For the record, I do not actually believe it is the FSU fan base....my wife is an FSU grad and she is appalled by the comments.

I've heard a lot of trash talk (sadly including racists stuff), through the years but I've never heard a fan base wish for Osama Bin Laden to reincarnate and fly a plane into an opponent's university.

Say what you want about Miami fans but I have never seen a Hurricane fan this deranged. The current state of FSU... And this Gem from an FSU grad sent to Miami Player Damon Williams. Obviously a couple of nutbags and not indicative of FSU but how is this possible in 2026?

They did go to video and the put the ACC command center on air discussing the position of the ball and where it ended up as the defender came to the ground. OBE at this point, Miami wins and FSU has a gofund me to buy out their coach. I almost feel bad for FSU as the game overall is better when they are good. But through all the bad years not one bit of empathy from FSU. Finally, I find it to be a karmic kick in the nuts that Robinson lost the ball after he spent so much time flashing the upside down U at the crowd. Suck it chump!

Dear god I hate it when people don't know the rules. Holding call- the Rule: An offensive player may not use their hands, arms, or body to hook, grasp, encircle, pull, or tackle a defender to restrict their movement away from the point of attack. Pulling a defender down or tackling them to the ground is a direct violation. #65 AND #77 had his shoulder pad, lift up and used it to take him to the ground. The Catch - a player going to the ground while catching a pass must maintain complete and continuous control of the ball throughout the entire process of contacting the ground. Did you even listen the ACC review center discussion? Robinson having simultaneous possession in the air is NOT a catch, he must abide by the rule which he did not as they discussed. Miami player had his hands on it AND against his body for possession. Your real issue should be why your dipshit coach didn't kick two field goals...I hope they give him an extension!- College Football
Subjective? So only a Natty is a passing grade? Does that mean we only have one successful military career every four year when we pick a CJCS - everyone else failed? GTFO. Only one team can win each year and IMHO the grading scale should including building a contender. At Ole Miss he took a program that was 4-8 and built into a team that went 55-19 under his leadership. He Guided the Rebels to four 10-win seasons, six consecutive bowl berths and the year he left they went to the semi-finals in the CFP. I truly don't understand your logic. I don't like the dude but will admit he is a good coach and knows how to build a team...his personal proclivity to self-destruct not withstanding.- College Football

Oops- Reasons to despise cops
How does this happen?- RAF Fairford alleged terror attack averted
Correct me if I am wrong but I thought there were TWO incidents? The possible fuel thieves that were released then the Brits arrested an Iranian late last week with ties to a possible operation against the bombers. After Operation Spiderweb I would rather they act on the side of caution.- ACE 2.0
Hearing reports that some ACC fighter units are getting ONE sortie per month thanks to the Iran conflict...recipe for disaster and further demonstrating we need some sort of seasoning program that can pick up the airmanship slack.- RAF Fairford alleged terror attack averted
Lots of confusing info. The first guys caught were quickly released and it was suggested they might have simply been trying to steal fuel. Now they arrested an Iranian and people are paying more attention.- Flying Videos Thread Part 2!
From the recording it does not sound like it was acknowledged. Regardless, if you are on an IFR clearance, without declaring you can't just decide to change altitudes on your own. Dude goes on to say "we were trying to prevent declaring an emergency"....then you need a clearance!- Flying Videos Thread Part 2!
Disagree...basic IFR rules, what if there was another aircraft between them and 12k? If you are going to descend on your own you have to tell someone.- China & Chinese Shenanigans

- The Next President is...
I think a lot has to do with the age when the arrive. Younger folks seem to pick up the language much easier. My Cuban friend I mentioned, his parents were amazing people, his father was Fulgencio Batista's horse guy and was severely punished when the revolution happened. He left before the family because they were going to kill him, the rest of the family left during the Mariel Boat lift. I forgot to include some of the story that shows how hard the integration can be. So the family had three kids, my buddy "Jose" was the middle child and he came to America with his Mom and younger sister to join his father. His older brother stayed behind as he was in the Cuban Army. Jose has been very successful and sent his brother money and supplies for many years. 15 years ago Jose started and payed for the process (including a LOT of bribes), to get his brother to America. It finally happened but after 2.5 years his brother decided to go back. Crazy from our perspective but he wanted his family (wife and friends), because he was unable to integrate here.- Gun Talk
Shocked this has not been hacked. They let China get my SF-86 but protect my gun numbers...- Boeing Wins Next Gen Navy F/A-XX contract
