Gee, I dunno... was i supposed to provide you with some statements? Missed that one... and I guess you did too, since her comments weren't posted on Storm Front. Where did I say she was anti-gay in general?? That's right... NOWHERE. Link? Where did I say she was "bashing" anyone.... oh, that's right!!!.... NOWHERE. Link? What the hell am I up in arms about? Not Miss California. I'm the one saying this is a non-issue. Suddenly, perez hilton is my "comrade"... yeah, that's cute. Couldn't pick him out of a lineup. didn't see the pageant. But that was fun, for someone claiming I'm "inventing" things... I said she was anti-gay RIGHTS (totally different from anti-gay in general), you seriously disagree with that?? Seriously?? I'm not indicting anyone who is against gay marriage, i don't even have a strong stance on it at all myself; but you don't think someone in her situation could fairly be labeled anti-gay rights, when she's publicly against the single biggest gay rights issue in contemporary American society? I'm not judging her stance in any way... tell me this: if she came out at the pageant and said gays should be allowed to get married, and then shortly after there was talk of her participating in a national TV campaign promoting gay marriage, you think you might consider her PRO-gay rights? You would. You know you would. So would I. So would anyone with a brain. Thusly, she's anti-gay rights, since just the opposite happened. It's not a judgment. We're all pro and anti a lot of things. I could care less what she thinks. again... not a big deal. don't really care... don't think she's a bad person, and I supported her ability to say whatever she wanted to say... and perez hilton seems like a douche.... but come on... arguing for the sake of arguing and defining my politics over THIS is pretty lame... I have no idea what you're accusing me of here, and I'm going to have to assume you replied to the wrong person, since your response to me makes ZERO sense based on what I said...

No Vlad, though... that HAS to be worth at least a few karma points.

But I suck at it. I'm tired of this stupid ol' penalty box. Why couldn't they just have posted links to white supremacist message boards?

Kram - YOU may not think they were controversial because you agree with them.... I mean, if someone on GMG.com said "Todd Dodge has proven to be a great hire" or "God, FC Dallas games are entertaining to white people", you wouldn't find them controversial at all... but most would. In seriousness, of COURSE they were controversial... simply because they were on a very hot button issue, and were given on a very unexpected, unusual, national stage... likewise, any comment about abortion, capital punishment, the merits of the draw play, or Greg "the Hammer" Williams employment status, etc. would also be labeled controversial. It's not a bad word, it doesn't presume taking sides, it doesn't mean any new ground is broken, it doesn't mean wrong or right... and it's also not indicative of PC run wild.... Look, if I'm relaxing at a get together with friends, having a few beers, watching a ballgame, and there's some guy spouting off hot political/social opinions to people he hardly knows (there's always one...), it's gonna createcontroversy... or at least some awkward stares and a slow volume increase on the telly. And that goes no matter how much I agree with him or not.

she IS anti-gay rights. And? Just as she's welcome to express her beliefs that are against gay marriage, those who feel differently have been welcome to express that as well. No one has violated anyone else's rights. This is a total non-story, and waaaay too much time has been wasted on this. She put herself willingly on a public stage and made controversial comments, and response from both sides has been nothing new, and as expected... supporters of this hot-button issue have attacked her stance in the media, and based on the support of those who agree with her she has received more fame, earning potential, and attention (something a pageant girl MAY be a bit interested in..) than she could have ever imagined. Everyone gets their platform, no one's rights are violated, and AJ Hammer has more material for Access: Douche. What a non-story timewaste. Have a beer.

Amen. One of the best weekends of my year, I gotta say. As for the Mex place, you mean Tijuana, Mattito's, or Manny's? There are three just east of DNT kinda within a mile or so.. all verrrry different. Oh yeah, and I'm also siding with the red uni theory... if only we could bring back the conference-title-100%-of-the-time script....

so he'll project to what position?

ok, living in Frisco, I'm relatively unaware of this issue, save its magnitude and hype, so I'm sure this is a stupid question..... but if the hotel is so needed and will be so successful, why haven't Marriott, Hilton, or Hyatt shown any interest in building there? Also, who is going to operate this thing? Surely it won't be "City of Dallas hotel", staffed and operated by the city, right? There must be some franchise deal with a major chain, right?

THIS THREAD IS USELESS WITHOUT PICS!

UPDATE: JACK KEMP STILL DEAD. Film at 11.

Good points, Stebo. Interesting mind candy. And hey, my Dad has a Tundra with 185k... same story, oil changes, tires, nothing out of the ordinary. High five!

Didn't Jimmy Jones actually have a wild-ass INT in Super Bowl XXVIII? Crazy, man....

OHHHH SNAPPP!!! Just when you thought we'd done it all, WE JUST GOT POLITICALIZED UP IN THIS MOFO!!!!!!!! That last like a flash knockout in boxing... didn't see it comin', just BOOM. Well played.

the good news is, at this point we can all assume that God hath smote the mods.... FREEEE FOOORRRR ALLLLL!!!! POOPIE!! BUTT!!!! BOOGERZ!!! WHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!

screw that, i want in on one of those "GAY RULEZ" classes for second graders!!! haven't we been doin' all that stuff anyway? We've been pretty rich, right? Bah, forget it. Best not to think any. Bob's rollin'. I am totally about to have a new favorite crazy person on GMG... ee better step it up!!!

S-O-P, like any declaration of emergency used to potentially mobilize resources. Non-issue. Shock value alone.

Unfortunately, he couldn't have gone to a worse situation. He wants to play Qb... he won't there. Pennington this year, Henne is "the future", and Beck was a 2nd rounder two years ago. Confusing pick. Wildcat on steroids?

Talk about being involved in the community.... that no good five-holin' son of a bitch!!

Was the best technical color man on television? Not even close. Had he slipped in the last few years? No doubt about it. Doesn't matter... he's John f'n Madden. Period. He IS football. I like Collinsworth a lot, think he's darn good actually, but it's going to be an adjustment period not hearing that burly stammer at least once a week. Glad he did it on his terms, he deserves it. The REAL question is, was there a "no #2" rule on the Maddencruiser? What kind of bus plumbing system can handle a Madden-sized dump if not? Back to you, Al.

Have you ever seen us in the same place at once? Have you ever seen us nude? Seriously though, Can you invade a sovereign sno cone, even if it's denied access to UN weapons inspectors or if it's really stinkin' delicious?

..don't forget the Babe's/Frisco Heritage Museum combo platter, 47 mattress stores, or the "Little Heiress" spawning Shops at Starwood (though I support the Petra taco and brunch at Bonnie Ruth's..)... SCL predated all of 'em. She's am absolute phenomenon without any intention of being so, and literally the sweetest human being you can concieve of. Frisco will be a lesser place when she leaves it. Sno Cone Sovereignty.... discuss.

Don't forget the Snow Cone Lady! reason enough for us to stay in Frisco a while, I think.

Don't think the legislature is all that concerned with our being a threat to the land grant schools on the ol' gridiron, bob. In fact, if they do, well, get a rope... as for Jerry's World, bob, you're right on. I'm drulling right now. I'm drulling all over my desk, real hard. Intense drulling.

un-der-rate-ted.... clap clap clap clap clap....

does the pope crap in the woods?
