is there anyone else in here who's a Bone Thugs-N-Harmony fan besides me?

Congratulations Nationals fan! Enjoy everything that comes with a championship, it's phenomenal! Also, this is a perfect way to keep those pesky Phillies fans out of your park next year, people excited and selling out games. But i may still visit. 🤷‍♂️ Congrats again!

Some other quick reviews: Bob ❤️ Aboshola - Definitely has more funny moments that I thought and i continue watching. Romantic drama comedy but definitely good comedy that overwhelms the others for me enough! Carol's 2nd Act - Continuing to watch, but not sure if I'll go season 2 unless it has some funnier moments. God Friended Me - did not expect to like this one, however, season 2 I continue to watch. Maybe it's the Violett Beane effect 🤷‍♂️ The Neighborhood - Must watch, IMO. Great comedy on race, in an extremely hostile race environment thats politicized right now. Plus it doesn't hurt that I have a colleague that's a big black dude and my name is Dave...so it works LOL

Just started Jack Ryan. Awesome so far!

Not touching the first comment LOL. I've seen compassion both ways, and I state that knowing I've read articles or heard news clips of judges stating things. Are you certain that it's never happened? I've seen compassion for all sorts of people in many aspects of law. I guess what you are saying it happens more for whites than non-whites? And I'm sure there have been racist judges out there, so I can agree that it would happen and maybe happens more for people with a little darkness on their skin, but I just don't think it's honest saying its a one way street.

Shrunk the quote down as best as possible to follow rules, but highlight my response. Classism, in my opinion, is where I think much of the frustration lies. And I do agree that instances of people in power/authority have gotten away with murder, because they've had great attorneys, or the powers above them have assisted (WHICH IS AWFUL). But Classism/Financially well-off people do have a higher propensity to be able to lower sentence through good attorneys, vs a public defender for a regular case. Oh sorry on the judge piece - i thought you did!

Can you clarify how it's "Holding us back". The way i see it, is this person did something more admirable than a lot of people may do, so why would a whole race (assuming "us" = black) be held back, because someone did something admirable? Agreed not everyone is Christian. Which is why i still think that the judge did something incorrect here. I have yet to see the video if maybe it was something that really snowballed in the heat of the moment or not, which still the judge needs to be reprimanded either way, if it truly is unethical as we all believe. Thanks for an honest convo instead of attacking!

I'm curious though, why is it looked down upon? The brother of the victim did something much better than I ever would have done in this moment I feel, and I don't think shouldn't be a UT comment here. As for the judge, I think she did not do the right thing for her profession, but I do think she did the right thing as a Christian - and that doesn't give her an acceptable excuse for the profession. But she should have given the Bible, open to the verse saying read that and please keep and step away.

To anyone upset with the sentencing, I'm shocked people expected more, please hear me out. Once the judge allowed the Castle Doctrine, and Mistake of Fact, immediately you can see the sentencing not being more than 15. In a convo about this, I said 10-12 high, 6-8 lower. These 2 are extremely important and were important enough to have the jury receive a quick lesson on them. This would absolutely be considered during a sentence.

Congrats, Nats fans!

The post oddly avoided the pants. Which means it's either white, or people don't realize I exist, a full uniform nerd, and care what they wear before the game starts! LOL

Since I love uniform variations, I have to bring alive this thread for 2019. I do my best to figure out what jerseys we will be wearing. Here is the schedule as of now, and any "Burgundy" could be the throwbacks, typically announced that week. (UPDATE AFTER COMPLETING POST: This is crap! Last year we knew way more unis based on other teams posts!) 1. Eagles - A - White (Because they wore white) 2. Cowboys - H - White (Love they did this again vs the cowboys) (Because they wore it) 3. Bears - H - 4. Giants - A - White (Via Giants Twitter) 5. Patriots - H 6. Dolphins - A 7. 49ers - H 8. Vikings - A 9. Bills - A 10. Jets - H 11. Lions - H 12. Panthers - A - White (Via Panthers Twitter 13. Packers - A 14. Eagles - H 15. Giants - H - Burgundy (Via giants twitter) 16. Cowboys - A - Burgundy (Via bloggingtheboys.com) Teams that do uniform Schedules: Giants, Panthers, Bears (home only), Rams, Broncos, Cowboys, Browns, Falcons, Broncos, Chargers, Bengals

Here is my take: 1. Dallas fans always show up well. Whether they are from Dallas or not (more than likely not), they show up. 2. Dallas is once again a media darling to do well, and week 1 while at home vs the Giants, they dominated. This will give Dallas fans confidence in going. 3. Redskins fans who have season tickets probably see this as a solid game to sell. 1 - buyers in Dallas fans, home opener, division game - probably best opportunity to get money back. 4. State of the team - week 1 didn't do any favors, blew another lead. A 'keeping the seat warm/competitive QB" at the helm, injury concerns again, same head coach people are upset with, etc.

My assumption on the loft comments, is they were telling you that you have 3 drivers, with all the same lofts? You only need one driver, and my suggestion without knowing anything is 10.5 degree loft. Depending on your affordability range and desire for new (I feel used is fine), check out any local store in person or a site called rockbottomgolf.com. i'm not familiar with play it again sports as they are no longer in my area. In your bag i would recommend a Driver, 3 Wood, 3-9, PW, SW, GW. You can also substitue your 3-5 irons with hybrids if you feel you hit them ok. Putters - get what you feel is comfortable. try different styles at a store and see what weights/style feels best.

That comeback was just CRAZYYYYYYYYYY

Just a side note, Quinn moved to his favorite, 18.

Congrats on the kiddo! being in the banking industry a lot of the banks compete with talent and I've seen an uptick in benefits due to that. We had a similar bump for my place of work for parental leave to 12 weeks, with women allowed 4 additional medical weeks if needed. And #2 for me is due in Jan!

With the information about the speeding and not providing documentation, I believe the initial officer handled it pretty well except for what i percieve to be some nervousness or just poor communication in a heated moment waiting for backup. Back up comes - he needs to assess the scene. That was brutal.

Ditto!

Soto=stud

For the Phillies, this is a must win game. Nola has been amazing as of late, the rest of the rotation not so much! Always love getting a national game!

He's right, you know ^^

Hiding from Riggo! Odd start time for Friday's game, 6:05, due to fireworks. But Saturday has fireworks as well and is a 7 start. I guess saturday is adult night lol.

Hope all is well!
