temptation

It seems to me that folks who come out of the other side of higher education often have more “book smarts” but much less “street smarts”…take that as you wish.

Trust me. I’ve already seen it with my own eyes. The value of a diverse classroom cannot be overstated, and that value is felt by every student in the class. Yes, every student. Why so vague with this statement? Spill it. What are these “values?”

So true.

“the team every team in the DAC is trying to match year in and year out.” LOL, at this.

Still makes me chuckle that a guy who repeatedly cited “unity” as his calling card during his campaign and labeled anyone that questioned the inner workings of our democracy as a terrorist (the top threat to our country, his words) get so butthurt and throw stones while throwing a temper tantrum after consecutive L’s.

It’s almost like Joseph knew during his 2020 campaign that this would be ruled unconstitutional and pandered to his voters by lying…especially the 20 somethings who voted for him in droves.

I’d argue they’ve made four common sense decisions in the last 12 months. Seems pretty “normal” to me, especially when you see how most Americans feel about these issues in polling.

“This is not a normal court.” I’ve been told that questioning our democracy is akin/more dangerous than domestic terrorism. Is that still the case?

The two biggest wins of the Biden presidency have been via the Trump appointed Supreme Court justices, lol. I’ll count that as a win.

Man, first affirmative action, now student loan forgiveness? Rough 24 hours for Joey.

But isn’t affirmative action simply racially discriminatory in its own right, just disguised under a different name. The Temp came from nothing…single parent household. Alcoholic/abusive parents. Mocked and told to pay his own way for wanting to go to college. The Temp also busted his ass, was involved in extracurricular activities, and had grit that came from within once he reached secondary school. He realized no one was going to help him. No one was going to do it for him. He became his own person and was no longer handcuffed as a victim of his circumstances. Spoiler alert: The Temp is a white male. Don’t tell me that the American dream is impossible for some in 2023. It’s no longer the 1950s. Do we have progress to make? Sure. Are we perfect? Absolutely not. It’s not being colorblind, more so not painting with a broad brush. In the Temp’s explanation above, he would likely be passed over in favor of a minority candidate if the numbers were tight. THAT is discriminatory.

I’ve had it backwards my “whole” life I guess…

They are finally telling on themselves by saying the quiet part out loud. “Dear black people, You are too inferior to succeed without the help of kind-hearted white people.” Is this the white supremacy I’ve heard so much about over the past 3 years?

Choose your words wisely so as not to offend others…

Not that I’d be surprised but no one with a clear conscience and wishing to do what is honestly in the best interest of students would go for this.

Don got the “watch this idiot” treatment while Joey gets the “aww, what a poor grandpa” treatment. It’s pretty embarrassing.

Maybe for you. SNL and other media outlets had (and continue to have) a field day with 45.

Warren made it interesting for a while in the regional.

Wait, presidential gaffes were hilarious from 2016-2020 right? What happened?

“Vladimir Putin is clearly losing the war in Iraq.”

It has to eventually. The Democratic party’s bullpen is damn near empty. They keep trotting this poor old bastard out there…he has no clue what planet he is on. They are gonna have to resort to the “at least it’s not Trump” mantra just like 2020.

The real question I need answered is, in a potential 6A Carmel/CG state title game at Lucas Oil, will the Greyhounds simply concede/forfeit with little to no explanation?

That’s a great place to start.

The CG of the north…gotta get one here soon though. CG was tested a couple of times in the tournament prior to Carroll, so no it’s unlikely they would have “done that to anyone.”

Brownsburg has the talent for sure but I’ll maintain a wait and see approach through the regular season. They broke me after that embarrassment at BD two years ago in the regional…after beating them soundly in the regular season. I could be wrong as both lost a lot of talent but LC and Warren just seem to be trending in opposite directions. LC has some playmakers returning on offense that should help them offset the loss of Mickens on defense. I think Kirschner’s best coaching days are behind him but will admit defeat if I’m proven wrong there also. They will be relevant (always are) but I’m not sure they’ve got the skill to match the swagger. You called Carroll last year so I will default to your expertise on them. I hope you are right.
