    UNC Sports Biorhythms for Carolina @Virginia: Post-Game Discussion

    i'm just not really sure there's been any evidence of growth in the 5+ years he's had the job. imo it's gotten well past the point where we just can't expect that room for growth to be realized. i disagree with the first part of your comment as well, but i suppose it's anybody's guess on that...

    i see, so you just pragmatically think that more brown people in this country is an issue worth murdering American citizens over.

    Politics How Non MAGA Conservatives View Trump

    To quote Brennan Lee Mulligan: on the order of individuals and civilizations, personality predates ideology. Every single policy that Trump and his ilk propose, every single thing that they do as our political leaders, is a function of who they are. If you find yourself agreeing with his...

    ok so if it had been federal law to get Covid vaccinated in 2020 you would've been okay with agents of the state murdering those who didn't do so?

    Politics 2026 Midterm Elections

    OP was talking about the coaches, not the players. Scott Jackson, I believe, is a registered Dem who took a demotion to come here from Liberty - there's nothing to confirm it, but both the optics and some rumors suggest that he just couldn't stand being at Liberty anymore. It's not the biggest...

    Off-Topic Chiropractic medicine?

    Chiropractic isn't medicine. Some people get helped by it but it's essentially by accident. It's not even as good as most folk healing traditions around the world, because those at least have generations-long histories of being observed to heal people even if they haven't undergone scientific...

    Politics 2026 Midterm Elections

    it's usually a safe assumption that men's sports coaches at the NCAA and pro levels are MAGA - the ones who aren't are usually pretty outspoken about it.

    UNC Sports UNC Football Catch-all | Bill Belichick Era underway

    "we had 70 new players.... this year we'll be in a lot better shape with continuity," he says, as he brings in 60 new players and counting for this year. god, how does anybody buy a word out of his or lombo's mouth?

    UNC Sports UNC’s Next Basketball Coach

    pro sports have multi-year contracts. even if your team is going to get outspent for an FA by a wealthier owner, you are pretty likely to have had them for the duration of a rookie contract and sometimes a second in the case of a late breakout. it's a far cry from the current state of college...

    Also live in Richmond, just read about ICE presence in Short Pump - that what you're referring to?

    Politics —> ICE / Immigration / Nation grapples with ICE killings

    Either progressives do not matter, or they cost Dems elections. You can't have both; they are mutually exclusive propositions. And further, the party should have just seen what "choosing the middle" leads to: 2016 and 2024. So maybe, if the Dems "want to win," they should try having a fucking...

    Politics —> ICE / Immigration / Nation grapples with ICE killings

    Trump's "open borders" bullshit stuck exactly because of what I'm saying - Kamala trying to run to Trump's right on immigration by saying she supported a restrictive immigration bill instead of actually fighting the scaremongering, and in doing so implicitly accepting that "open borders" are a...

    Politics —> ICE / Immigration / Nation grapples with ICE killings

    I think it is at least as likely that Dems lose on slogans like this because of their inability to commit to them as a part as it is that they are genuinely unpopular. whether it is defunding the police, transgender rights, medicare for all, or any other of the host of progressive...
