  1. The article in my opinion is long on accusations and short on content. It uses the word subsidies and taxpayer funds, but only mentions one time a grant. Most of it is tax abatements which locally are handed out like candy. The article also mentions 100-120 million over a given time period, which kinda pales in comparison to Amazon’s recent deals. We’ll have to agree to disagree on this one.
  2. In listening to James Comey over the last year, it is my understanding the FBI is above reproach.
  3. To be honest, the Krispy Kreme comment was in jest. This subject has been done to death from every angle. I find it interesting that when it comes to attaining a state issued ID to vote, it’s too burdensome and should be abolished. If one has to cross a state line to get an abortion, the cost is too burdensome. But having to pay a fee to the state, $125 in Indiana, to have a handgun on your person, isn’t considered too burdensome. To the subject at hand, we currently have clamoring over women’s right to reproductive healthcare. So if it’s the woman’s right, why are taxpayers forced to subsidize it? Lastly I cringe at the fact that we all know Indiana GOP lawmakers are already planning their next anti-abortion bill for the 2020 session and the $hit show that will ensue. Unfortunately with lousy leadership from North Meridian, it’ll be a circus.
  4. C'mon man, I've driven an hour to get my wife Krispy Kreme doughnuts!
  5. I believe FTWD begins Sunday evening. Does anyone even remember last year's cliff hanger? I'm UIC'ing this weekend, so I'm not sure if I'll even be home to see it and if I am I'll be too tired to watch. Thank god for DVR.
  6. Not much different than recent John Wayne revelations. Probably important in a historical sense. But in all likelihood, most people involved are gone. So justice can't be a motive. What is it we hope to gain by publicizing such stuff. We know MLK is certainly not around to defend himself against such allegations. Should these revelations taint a person's legacy and what work they accomplished during their lives? I don't know. But I do know this is another racially charged issue that could potentially keep FB going for a month or so with memes. No different than, Lee, McCain, or Wayne, why do we feel the need to pee on these men's grave? Why don't we move forward and leave the past in the past?
  7. Who down votes this? Flatearthers? Moonlanding hoaxers? I think it's pretty cool. I'll have to wait for the deluxe model with the moon rover and golf clubs included.
  8. I just did my second spraying of the season around the yard on Monday. I wore no protective equipment other than my "old" flip flops that I mow in. My opinion is Roundup is safe, I think one of the biggest issues with it is pre-harvest usage on row crops. It aids in the drying process. I would question it's residual levels on crops that are about to be harvest. Virtually all farmers in our area use Roundup Ready beans, and even a few use Roundup Ready corn, though you don't see a lot of it. It's got a be a huge savings in fuel and time.
  9. So given Roe is a "privacy" issue. We have seen states run in opposite directions on this issue. Do you see a legal issue with states determining an age of viability for the unborn and limiting abortions after that age? As I see it, shouldn't states be free to make their own laws, so long as they do not contradict federal law?
  10. I have offered both opinions and the numbers to back it up. You’re the one who claimed I had no common sense, if I didn’t agree with you, there was nothing left to say. Next time I’m at FC I’ll let you know, I’ll buy the first round. My real identity is about the worst kept secret on the GID, ask anyone who knows me, and I’m sure they’ll agree I haven’t said anything on here I wouldn’t say face to face. I have no problem calling BS when I see it. And whether you accept it or not, I stand by what I have posted.
  11. Update on Alex Trebek: https://www.dailywire.com/news/47770/mind-boggling-alex-trebeks-surprising-cancer-amanda-prestigiacomo?utm_source=facebook&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=benshapiro
  12. Any numbers or is this like your opinion man? Because your opinion ain't worth spit: 5/14/18 “I think Jeffersonville will be 2nd place. 5/15/18 “Jeff upgraded their coaching significantly. They have a ton of talent” 8/5/18 “Jeffersonville wont be any good this year......." 7/15/18 "“He (Glesing) absolutely is the 2nd best coach in this conference." 8/31/18 “But this Floyd Central team is pretty good. They're bigger. They're faster. And I honestly feel like they are coached better defensively. And I like their offense.” 8/24/18 “Providence won't have 4 first downs” 8/25/18 “Great adjustments by coach Bragg. Good win (over Providence).”
  13. In Football since their inception they are 56-32 in the MSC, with a couple of 6-2 records in the MSC. So what happens to their conference record when they replace Eastern (Pekin), Scottsburg, Clarksville, Corydon, etc., with Columbus East, Floyd Central, Jeff, BNL, etc.? They have competed favorably in the last several years, with a strong 3A team that won a state championship in Basketball this year. But take away a couple of anomaly years, and there are a lot of 1-4/2-3 seasons against HHC opponents. I never said they didn't have athletes, They are a growing school system and I'm sure there's a lot of school shopping that goes on in the West Clark system, but I stand by my comments, if they join the HHC, across the board, year in and year out, they don't fare much better than Madison does. So I'll call your common sense, and raise you with some actual records.
  14. Study on it a bit, I'm sure you'll come up with something.
  15. The thread is about Madison Football coach, not scheduling, not conference affiliation, not contraction, not Nevada Football woes.
  16. It's not so much the geese, it's what they leave behind!
  17. @DanteEstoniayou can downstroke me all you want, the bottom line the MSC is NOT adding an 11th school/10th Football playing school. Why in hell would SC leave a conference where they are one of the largest schools for a conference where they would be one of the smallest ones? Can they compete in some sports, yes, in Football they've yet to win a MSC title, they would most likely be a perennial cellar dweller just like Madison in the HHC. And before anyone starts, yes, I'm aware that JC finished second in Football 2-3 year ago. But it was an anomaly. Madison has looked at other conferences, geographically where do they fit? Travel and competition wise, the EIAC is about a wash with the HHC. They have at times played Greensburg, Batesville, SD, and Lawrenceburg and the results are pretty much the same, with possibly a slightly better winning percentage. The only other option is to join the conference with Southwestern, Switz, South Ripley, etc., and that doesn't really help there cause as there is only one football school in the group, I would guess they'd have similar issues with swimming, wrestling, etc. Silver Creek, Borden, and Henryville are not going to consolidate any time soon. So your point about West Clark Schools being larger than Seymour is moot. The bottom line is this horse has been beat to death, time and time again. Let's bury it and call it a day. You now live in Nevada, why don't you focus on saving Nevada football? Lastly this is not a slam on any schools mentioned. These are the facts as they pertain to the tired subject of conference alignments by supreme leader of the conference alignment/scheduling Nazis.
  18. I had mom, dad, and a bunch of little ones walk out in front of me last night on my way home from my sectional, I accelerated and tried to get them, but they split up, mom went ahead with some of the little ones and dad turned back with the rest of the little ones. I didn't get a single one. Not sure if I've ever mentioned how bad I HATE geese.
  19. Guerin Catholic last year comes to mind.
