Finished holding my nose, and pulling the lever in Baltimore.
Staff is begging me to tell my friends to come out and vote.
Looks like our Polling Place is having very low turn-out for this time of day.

All because, once again, the CCV option is turned off. And people have decided to make these donations to prove this point.
I wait for Kony to donate. But I will not hold my breath for the media to report this.

On a political note, its legit to ask a candidate what he believes in. Yes, thats done all the time.
So if mitt believes that mixed marriage is unlawful in the eyes of god because thats what mormonism teaches, then that is a legit question to ask him.
mitt believes that given the fact that he has risen so high in the mormon heirarchy, he will become a god when he dies. With such status, his beliefs state that he will receive his own planet in the Celestial Kingdom. He will then resurrect his dead wife and they will spend their days procreating to polulate their planet.
The Mormon Church, through its political organization, the Kingdom of God, says John J. Stewart in Joseph Smith the Mormon Prophet, plans on gaining a political stronghold in the U.S. government. The goal is to “bring the United States Government under the rule of the priesthood.”
This is theocracy. And it aint the theocracy many of you have signed on for. No, this is a mormon ruled world where the churchs' living prophet decides everything. Not the President. Not the citizens. Not the electorate.
Sounds terrible. mitt should answer questions about what he believes.

How the hell did a basketball thread turn into a OMG ROMNEY'S A CULTIST thread?
I was just pondering that if Romney is elected, he should go all out and do everything he can to freak out the MFM about ooga booga Mormon. Hand out commemorative special underwear, get Giorgio Tsoukalos to show up for the inauguration to explain how the ancient aliens were the ones who gave Joseph Smith those plates, have groups of women follow him around and say he's considering adding more sister wives, the whole bit. Pretty much do everything that the MFM is claiming he really really want to do. I know he can't and there are idiots who would think he meant it but just once I would love to see an elected official run with it and be all "yup, totally handle snakes, wanna see?"

That's a good question. It will depend on how the Jets want to use him. There's some speculation they'd put him in as a running back, and use him occasionally to Wildcat. That might be a really good use of his abilities, frankly.

Mr. rockmom won $100 in his office pool! It helped that Kentucky finally won one. He actually won it on the tiebreaker for total points in the championship game - he had 133 and the actual was 136. Not bad for the spouse who doesn't know nearly as much about basketball as I do. But I always suck with the brackets, because I always pick Kentucky to win and everyone I hate to lose.
BTW, Kentucky is #1 in baseball this week too, in case you just thought it was a basketball school. :-D

I don't know. If they don't put Tebow in at QB (except for wildcat formations), there shouldn't be any major changes to the playbook.

Well, yeah, there's that possibility too. The key is going to be the ability to work in Tebow without making the other players feel like they are part of a rotation. Resentment will kill the strategy dead where it stands. Tebow's humility and work ethic will allow him to take whatever they hand him and make the best of it.The other players might not see it that way.

Well, if you actually use him as (say) a Half-Back for most of the game, and put him in as QB for the Wildcat occasionally, it's got a chance.
Think about it, Denver's whole offense (which took them to the 2nd round of the playoffs) was a wildcat offense- every play. Frankly, Tebow makes a wildcat truly scary- unlike some wildcats, you really do have to worry about both the pass and the run. Most can't pull it off in quite as balanced a way as Tebow can.

Narcotics are sorta more calming than booze. Besides, boys drunk on brown liquor tend to get more violent. Kentucky should just ask the retards at Maryland what to do about rioters...oh, wait, they don't know. In Maryland they set fire to college park every fucking game. But then again, everyone in Maryland is a fucking idiot.

Yup. Elway managed to destroy a huge part of the goodwill he'd earned over the years by how he handled the entire Tebow situation. He seriously looked pissed off that Tebow was leading the team to victory. Dude, I don't care if you make those faces when Tebow was looking completely overwhelmed. Those are the appropriate faces to make then. I do care when you look like he just shot your dog in front of you when he leads the team to a dramatic victory.

Because he was lucky he was winning those games and he is not the kind of QB that can win in the NFL consistantly. History does mean something.
For pity's sake, what the hell was wrong with Elway that he couldn't fake looking happy in public? That's what ticked me off. Elway is part of team management. You would think that he would not give a crap if unicorns suddenly ran onto the field and gored all the members of the other team so long as his team won. Look happy in public and then bitch in private. Seriosuly, that's PR 101 stuff.

I'm not a mind reader. I'm guessing, however, that people took a look at the fact that the Broncos didn't want him and assumed, "Oh, there must be something we don't know. Nope. Not interested."
He's not a "hair on fire" QB, and he never will be, but he's vexing for defenses because he essentially makes the Option and Play Action believable on every. single. down.

“You will recall the incident of the beating of the black homeless man Sherman Ware on December 4, 2010 by the son of a Sanford police officer. The beating sparked outrage in the community but there were very few that stepped up to do anything about it. I would presume the inaction was because of the fact that he was homeless not because he was black. Do you know the individual who stepped up when no one else in the black community would? Do you know who spent tireless hours putting flyers on the cars of persons parked in the churches of the black community? Do you know who waited for the church-goers to get out of church so that he could hand them flyers in an attempt to organize the black community against this horrible miscarriage of justice? Do you know who helped organize the City Hall meeting on January 8, 2011 at Sanford City Hall?? That person was GEORGE ZIMMERMAN.”

Though somewhat intertwined, happy ticketbuying fans and interested television viewers are more important metrics that wins.
You know, that's a great point that gets missed. Each team is a medium to large size business. Sure, winning is great and will help with the ticket buying and ratings but getting seats in the stands and eyes on the screen and those jerseys sold is the true point. See re: Cubs.
Posted by: alexthechick - SMOD 2012 at April 03, 2012 07:37 AM (VtjlW)
I disagree. Based on what I saw of him (one of his early games, another later in the season, and one playoff game) I saw marked improvement in his throwing motion and release in each successive game. Admittedly, I'm not an expert, but that was my impression. His passes were more on target the deeper he got into the season, too.
On top of that, it was his first season starting.
I'm not saying he's going to be a franchise QB. What I am saying is that loyalty used to mean something, and I would think you'd owe at least the facade of loyalty to the QB who took you from a losing record to the second round of the Playoffs.
But who wants to rely on that or build their team around that kind of QB?
If it works, why not? And, you have to admit, the last 2 - 5 minutes of games were really exciting.

Surprising precisely no one, another Green Energy company that got DoE loans is going bankrupt. I wonder how much they donated to Teh Won's election?

You'll probably want to avoid catching a game at
Miller Park. Lots of stuff on the jumbotron between innings. And racing
sausages. Posted by: HeatherRadish™
The $8 cups of Miller Lite did it for me.

I reject that breakdown, because it completely ignores the threat he was as a runner. All I said was that his motion and release seemed better in later games- not that he had a better rating.
The thing is there have been so few QBs like Tebow in the modern era that it's hard to find a good comparison or have a good statistical breakdown.
So I wish Tebow well, but I don't think his prospects are good on the Jets.
I'll agree with that. I think it was a disservice to him for the Broncos to trade him- especially to trade him to a team that was already "set" at QB.

If you're going to a Nats game, don't bet on me to win the race.

141.... In its quest to implement stealth amnesty, the Obama Administration is working behind the scenes to halt the deportation of certain illegal immigrants by granting them “unlawful presence waivers.”
And LaRaza remains in 'hands off' mode in the whole feeding frenzy aimed at George Zimmerman. ....Hmmm.

That's simply not true. Shad Kahn has been quite vocal about wanting Timmy on the team and he put up an equally good offer to Denver. The difference is that the Jets said from the get-go that he would not be a bench-warmer and would see play immediately.

Nothing, since he doesn't fit their narrative of oppression. But, trust me, if the deceased had been Hispanic, and the shooter white, La Raza would have been all over it just as fast as Al and Jesse.

The Agitator in Chief is playing a dangerous game of demagoguery, that I hope will backfire on his ass.
Manufacturing all this 'black victimhood' to support his obsession with Bell's kill-whitey dogma is yet another illustration of how he could care less about the wellfare of the citizens of this country....and only sees them as pawns to use in his quest for power.

Ace needs to make a thread about George Zimmerman's "community activism" as mentioned earlier. If this is verifiable fact. Which it should be, especially the 8 Jan 2011 city hall meeting, which will have minutes on public record.
It's time to go all Weiner on this.

“You will recall the incident of the beating of the black homeless man Sherman Ware on December 4, 2010 by the son of a Sanford police officer. The beating sparked outrage in the community but there were very few that stepped up to do anything about it. I would presume the inaction was because of the fact that he was homeless not because he was black. Do you know the individual who stepped up when no one else in the black community would? Do you know who spent tireless hours putting flyers on the cars of persons parked in the churches of the black community? Do you know who waited for the church-goers to get out of church so that he could hand them flyers in an attempt to organize the black community against this horrible miscarriage of justice? Do you know who helped organize the City Hall meeting on January 8, 2011 at Sanford City Hall?? That person was GEORGE ZIMMERMAN.” – from a letter to Turner Clayton of the Seminole County NAACP written by “a concerned Zimmerman family member”
