Artificial intelligences do not undergo experiences, do not possess a body, do not feel joy or pain, do not mature through relationships, and do not know from within what love, work, friendship or responsibility mean. Nor do they have a moral conscience, since they do not judge good and evil, grasp the ultimate meaning of situations, or bear responsibility for consequences. They may imitate or even simulate, but they do not understand what they produce, for they lack the affective, relational, and spiritual perspective through which human beings grow in wisdom. #MagnificaHumanitas

Absurd and inhuman violence is spreading ferociously through the sacred places of the Christian East, profaned by the blasphemy of war and the brutality of business, with no regard for people’s lives, which are considered at most collateral damage of self-interest. But no gain can be worth the life of the weakest, children, or families. No cause can justify the shedding of innocent blood.
New Bulldogs QB Khristian Martin says of transferring in, "The amount of quarterbacks that come out of this school - your dreams are accomplishable from Fresno State."
Martin adds of his game: "Smart kid with an ability to throw from the pocket, but also the ability to use legs when needed."

Hey NCAA, us more about players that don’t show “loyalty,” don’t want to go through “adversity” and how player movement impacts stability. Tell us more about “tampering” and “poaching.” The Coaches Portal is ALWAYS open. Funny how silent coaches and administrators are about that.
The transfer portal hasn’t “screwed up college sports.” Failing to negotiate terms with the athletes (the labor) has made it uncomfortable for certain college sports executives.
Tommy Tuberville’s bill is simple: Place anticompetitive restrictions on athletes and let the rich (coaches, athletic directors, etc.) get richer.
This will “fix” the issues of control that leaders should have never possessed absent bargaining with athletes.
Senator proposing this had 3 head coaching jobs in 6 years, and walked out of a dinner with recruits to secretly take another job

This was all when there was no portal so players were stuck playing where he signed them believing he would be there
