@TheBrohmShelter He’s very negative and acts like coaches owe him. Constantly making statements like a coach owes him an explanation of why they did this or that.
@sarandon_raboin@MasonHorodyski I don’t see the big deal here! Talking heads on local radio shows are making this out to be the sky is falling bullshit.
Realistically, if Cal didn’t make the draft a big deal and promote himself doing it would we really give a shit
@TheOnlySweeney Not hating on Brown but I’m over it. We have what looks on paper to be possibly the best team since 2013. Let’s talk about that not Brown and or his family. Move on.
Trump told Leslie Stahl something years ago that everyone should hear.
She asked Trump he kept calling the media fake news.
He said, I do it because I need to discredit you, so that when you say negative things about me, nobody believes you.
That is EXACTLY what he’s done.
The problem everyone has with him is that most of us grew up with values, ethics, and integrity.
That is not Donald Trump.
He figured out a long time ago that he can bully his way through any rule and if he keeps pushing harder and harder, people will relent.
For most of his life they did, but we must stand up against it.
@Matt_McGavic@RoccoGasparro11 Congratulations Rocco! No doubt in my mind that they are getting one of the best in the business. I myself appreciate your work that you put in for our Cardinal program! Good luck to you!

Let me tell you why I'm with the Brown folk and queer folk and the women folk - somebody just reminded me of this - I was born and raised less than 10 miles from where I live right now. I'm a white dude, a southern dude, I own a gun, I have a job, I vote,  I drink beer, I fish, I pay my taxes, I grew up raising hell and listening to the Allman brothers ....
But the flag-waving Uber-patriots still come at me foaming at the mouth and telling me I'm not American enough, not straight enough, not man enough to be part of what they think belongs in "their America." Literally happened completely unprovoked about 10 minutes ago.
Now, if these crazy jackasses come at me??? - when I have a redneck pedigree that goes back to the Civil War.... how much more are they gonna try to persecute people that aren't like me? I'm literally everything they say they want, except I won't vote for institutionalized racism and a war on women and queer folk.
Screw them!
Persecuting people and hating people is no way to go through life. Miss me with all that
I'll be hanging with the womens and the queers and every color that the Good Lord made us in. And we will be looking better and eating better and having hell a lot more fun.
Bet on that.
Sheryl Crow speaks out after Trump’s UFC 250 event: “To stay quiet means to turn a blind eye. And so I am saying this. What happened last night on the lawn of the White House was disgraceful and void of decency. Powerful, rich people filled the lawn to watch a violent sport that ended with a vile and racist comment. All while the average American cannot afford healthcare, gas, and cost of living. Do not be fooled. This administration is corrupt and does not give a damn about the American people. It only cares about making money hand over fist at the expense and in spite of our democracy. If we continue to support this kind of distraction from reality, we are no better than them. Let's be better, America.”
To everyone so eager to cancel someone for a tattoo they got at age 22, a drunk text, a selfie they took in the middle of a mental health crisis:
Show us your laptop.
Show us your iCloud.
Open your entire digital life to your worst enemy. No context. No filter. No explanation.
You won’t.
You won’t because you know what I know. Any one of us, frozen at our worst moment, photographed in our lowest hour, looks like a monster. Looks like a stranger. Looks like someone who deserves to be cast out.
That is not who we are.
My mom and baby sister were killed in a car accident when I was just a kid. Cancer took my brother Beau, my best friend and my rock. I battled alcoholism. I battled addiction. I chose the coward’s way out more times than I can count.
For years I believed the defining chapters of my life were written by tragedy, loss, and shame.
I no longer believe that.
Pain can shape us. Loss can humble us. Failures can leave scars that never fully fade. But none of them have the authority to define us.
And it sure as hell ain’t the critic that counts.
That authority belongs to us alone-the person in the arena.
Every setback presents a choice. Play the victim, or cut the bullshit and take ownership for who we become next.
Life does not determine our character. It reveals it.
Again and again we are asked the same question. When shit happens, what next?
We are not defined by what happened to us. We are not defined by the worst photo, the worst text, the worst tattoo, the worst night. We are defined by the person we choose to become. And by the courage to choose that person, every single day.
So before you reach for the gavel - show us your laptop.
You won’t.
The whole world saw mine. And I am still here. Still becoming. Still choosing. Still standing.
That is the only definition that matters.
@CardChronicle@Snyder_502 Prayers up. He’s one of the best! Not sure what he is going through but I pray for his well being! Prayers to his wife and loved ones as well.
Seven years sober. Federal pardon. Half a million people watching him make crack cocaine jokes with more self-possession than most people manage on their best day.
We spent years using Hunter Biden as a political prop. His addiction was a weapon before it was a story. His recovery was ignored because recovery does not move the same needle that relapse does. The caricature was more useful than the person, so the caricature is what we got.
That's over now. He is speaking in his own voice for the first time — unmediated by lawyers, White House optics, or the campaign calculus of people who needed him manageable. What's coming through is something the prop version couldn't carry: actual human texture. Wit without defensiveness. Accountability without performance. A son who watched his father get used and hasn't pretended otherwise.
You don't have to agree with his politics. You don't have to rehabilitate the Biden presidency to receive this honestly. What you owe him — what we owe anyone who survives what he survived and speaks about it without self-pity — is the same thing Patti Davis asked us to give: the recognition that there are a lot of Hunter Bidens in this world. Most of them never get heard. He finally is.
That's worth something. Receive it that way.
@UofLNunn@rarerookies Let’s let this play out. He landed a top 10 recruit. Good for him, good for the program. However, that’s one recruit early in the 2027 recruiting cycle. Currently that puts them at one. It’s a tremendous get. Let’s see this time next year where that recruiting class ranks. 🤷♂️
BREAKING: Hunter Biden SHREDS the media's double standard toward the Trump family in one devastating post — and EVERY word is documented.
Hunter Biden just posted something on X that cuts right to the heart of America's broken media landscape — and it's IMPOSSIBLE to argue with.
"So let me get this straight," he wrote. "Jake Tapper is focused on attacking my Mom," referring to the comments the CNN anchor has made about disbelieving some of the claims in Jill Biden’s latest memoir.
"Meanwhile, Jared and Ivanka are building a private island paradise on Albanian protected land." TRUE. Over 100,000 Albanians are in the streets. Anti-corruption prosecutors have opened an investigation. Flamingo habitats are being bulldozed. It BARELY registers on mainstream media.
"Don Jr. married the daughter of Epstein's banker." Also TRUE. While Epstein survivors read their FBI abuse reports aloud outside the Justice Department, Pam Bondi refused to answer a even a SINGLE question about Trump and the Epstein files, and DOJ lawyers intervened to make sure she didn't.
"A startup that Donald Jr. fund backs just got a record $620 million Pentagon loan." FACTCHECK: ALSO TRUE. While Trump's own financial disclosures show him trading stock in companies his administration then hands billion-dollar contracts to, Don Jr.'s SHADY investment connections to Pentagon contractors receive almost NO scrutiny from mainstream media.
"Eric is taking an Israeli drone company public for $1.5 billion in the middle of a war with Iran that nobody wanted." Also TRUE, but that story got almost NO coverage.
And then Hunter Biden delivered the punchline that lands like a sledgehammer: "And I know: 'But what about your paintings, Hunter?'"
HUNTER IS 100% RIGHT: His art sales, laptop, and legal troubles consumed years of breathless media coverage. The Trump children's CORRUPT overseas business deals, foreign investments, Pentagon contracts, and connections to Jeffrey Epstein's associates a free pass.
And while Jake Tapper attacks Jill Biden is being attacked for a book, Jared Kushner is bulldozing protected wetlands for a $4 billion resort while his father-in-law runs foreign policy, while raising BILLIONS from shady deals with foreign governments.
There is simply NO comparison!

@josh_paul12@Grantham16J I hate the talk of reseeding an event after the start of that event. It usually comes from the teams that typically have the advantage all the time anyway. If a lower seed beats a team that is perceived to be better than them let’s penalize them and reseed. Makes no sense to me
