One interesting thing about this controversy is that there's nothing stopping all these whiners from making their own adaptation of The Odyssey.
Elon Musk could cut a check right now for a big budget adaptation produced exactly to his liking. He could hire the director and writer and crew he wants. He could cast whomever he wants.
He and his like-minded, fragile fanboys could set out to prove that their version of The Odyssey is aesthetically superior and more commercially successful.
But they haven't and they won't.
Because it's not really about The Odyssey.
It's about the insatiable craving for outrage and grievance. They are constantly starved for things to be angry about.
Dear Captain Cancun,
I receive numerous emails every summer from ERCOT (Electric Reliability Council of Texas) asking people to do this exact same thing.
Quit trying to start propaganda you giant sack of potatoes.
Sports are wonderful because they teach kids valuable life lessons such as “Sometimes life is unfair” and “The law is not enforced equally to all people”.
@scottwildcat Fair point in terms of overall experience. BSFS is well above the majority in terms of overall quality and fan experience. To me this is just a piece of the puzzle that kicks it up a notch
In terms of the actual sports part, it's at best fourth place on the most entertaining sports event list
1.) College Football Championship
2.) World Series Championship
3.) Kentucky Derby
4.) Super Bowl
It’s about time students like this were arrested. Harming someone is a crime -- even for students.
Disruptive walkouts allowed by schools lead to just this kind of chaos.
Schools and staff who allow this behavior should be treated as co-conspirators and should not be immune for criminal behavior.
We are also looking into stripping the funding of schools that abandon their duty to teach our kids the curriculum required by law.
More to come.

The lawsuits against Meta hinge on a key question: is social media addictive, and did Meta know it? My team has aggregated 31 studies done by Meta itself. Several show that they knew it, they studied the vulnerabilities of teen brains, yet they continued to maximize for "engagement". Read their own words about it at:

It is IRRELEVANT if you break the law, the government cannot kill you for it.
It is IRRELEVANT if you protest, record, or annoy ICE agents, the government cannot kill you for it.
It is IRRELEVANT if you lawfully conceal-carry but forget your paper permit at home, the government cannot kill you for it.
And that takes care of 99% of the bullshit MAGA posts on this platform defending the Pretti killing.
This is an incentive for ICE agents to continue escalation and use of lethal force because there are zero consequences.
This is administration is full speed ahead on "deaths will continue until morale improves"
Bovino openly says that we are never learning the identity of the murderer because that would be "doxing." He says he has already gotten the agent out of Minnesota's jurisdiction. He put him back on the job. He is part of an extensive, open criminal coverup.
Leaders in the party that once claimed to stand for individual freedom and limited government now say if you don’t do what the masked men say, regardless of whether their orders are legal or contradictory, you won’t “get to keep your life.”
They may kill you without trial.
Anyone advocating for a P4 only playoff, will eventually be advocating for a SEC/Big10 playoff.
They don't care about college football, they care about perception & hypotheticals.
Get rid of bowl games. 16tm playoff, Autobid P4 champs & top G5. 9 at large. Must play 9conf gms.
Sources: Baylor is finalizing a deal to hire Joe Klanderman as the school’s new defensive coordinator. He’s spent the last seven years at Kansas State, including the last six as the defensive coordinator. He coordinated the defense on Kansas State’s Big 12 title team in 2022.
