Patterson replaced Kate Wiesner. I would bet that KW was one of the final picks on the squad, so it is not clear that the transition is a net loss. Emily Samms replaced Jordyn Bugg on the back line. Again, a case could be made that Samms is better, if healthy. I'd guess that the defensive...

Well, the OP attracted no attention But I do have some news. Avery Patterson (a one time UNC star) had been a regular partcipant at Left Back (defense) for the USWNT. But in January she was called up to camp but had to leave with some unknown illness. There was some speculation that...

Are you really this stupid? He was not celebrating "Americans," He was celebrating white people, and especially white people who were shot by undocumented immigrnts His ultimate gamble is that people like you and Rams are really that stupid. But the larger truth is that you guys are...

This guy literally delivered a horrible speech that - as far aa I could tell - completely ignored African Americans either today or in history. A piece of garbage

He is speaking to his base: ignorant racists He is speaking to his base: ignorant racists

This garbage is appalling

Does not make the She Believes roster Is she hurt or ill?

No. That is the point. Sure, educated folks might come to different conclusions. But the problem we as a society are facing is that uneducated people believe that they get to believe whatever they want to believe and they believe that they can "do their own research" by reading right-wing...

No, the meaning of "racism" is not really a matter of personal opinion. There is a massive literature on race and racism. That is like saying that the efficacy of vaccines is a matter of personal opinion. In tact, there are facts that one can learn (or not learn) If one blames fraud...

Congratulations to Coach Davis. No doubt he was the subject of great praise on this board throughout the game.

There is much to like about this team. There is good depth with lots of moving parts. Looking from the outside, they all seem like good guys. The two big post stars are ersatile players who can pass the ball, and seem to enjoy each other, There is lots of evidence of individuals...

The point is not "hating" this guy. The key points (I think) are: 1. This guy is completely dishonest. Historically so. It would be insane to believe anything he says. 2. I imagine that history will judge that he has being even more corrupt than we now believe. It is reasonable to...

Given the visual evidence and their collective track records, I'm pretty confident that these people are lying. On purpose. For the moment, lets focus on JD Vance. This guy is ambitious unbalanced by any sense of ethics. So, why is he being so loud in attacking this particular victim...

Okay, misc thoughts on this essay and this thread and this topic: 1. I've said this frequently and it is still true. "DEI" does not = "Affirmative Actions," although there are evil folks who want you to think they are the same. Frankly, when I see folks using DEI when they mean...

For folks who have not stumbled upon this useful stat: The GoHeels site has a link to "live stats" fpr eacj game. But the feature I really like is that you can select the stats for the Second Half, allowing for a fun chance to examine first half-second half trends.
