Coffee and TV

If only Wisconsin didn't have to battle those unions. Then they'd be able to double class sizes, cut teaching jobs, and close down schools like we did in Texas. Yeah, big win alright. Big win for corporate bigwigs.

Share the wealth, bro. Share the wealth.

Just because a guy didn't hit a lot of home runs doesn't mean he didn't juice. Steroids have a lot to do with overall endurance and conditioning. They have to do with bouncing back from minor injuries more quickly, and overall muscle increase. They don't necessarily make fly ball outs into home runs. With most hitters in that era I'd shave about 100 points off their slugging percentage, and then decide if they're worthy or not. Pudge? Dunno. Bagwell? Nope. Bonds? Nope. Clemens? Not a chance. Griffey? Absolutely.

No doubt. Go Toffees. Although in all honesty, I just don't get into any European team that much. Sorry, but unless I can attend matches regularly, its just reality TV to me. I have no connection or any deep reason to cheer for or against any club. Its amazing to me how much some of my friends are so diehard for Chelsea or Arsenal or whoever, having never attended a match.

Most likely a juicer, so I'm not quite sure where I'd rank him.

They should setup a hologram of him doing the New Year's Eve balldrop every year. Too soon?

Disagree. Dallas pulls off the hoops look WAYYYYY better.

Malaga's owner wants the champions league birth though. He wants someone who will put him over the top and get that auto-qualifier, and he'll be looking to spend money to do so. Dempsey might just be the guy he needs.

Fulham won't be able to afford Dempsey, and other clubs will be bidding for him heavily in the summer. My prediction is he goes to Malaga in Spain, plays for about 4 more years there, then decides to come back to Texas, play for FC Dallas, and fish in Lake Fork at every opportunity.

My bad, just trying to keep up with the natural order of things. You've done so much spinning and goalpost moving that its hard to keep up with all of the false narratives you keep employing. First we were all too quick to judge because we didn't have all the facts, and we need to slow down and have patience. Then as more facts emerged you were quick to disparage a witness who 'would do anything to get on TV' in order to stick to your talking point. You also just theorized that we wanted to believe 'conspiracy theories'. Then as more facts came to light, you again stated that all we wanted to do was fry the guy. Of course if its Trayvon's fault, you gotta quote the law and make sure that you can interpret better than everyone else. After all, Zimmerman was just standing his ground. Then after the 9-1-1 calls are released shedding more light on the situation, you go back to your usual defense of saying all we want to do is nail him to the cross. "He didn't say coons, he said cold, and besides, he can be racist and it means nothing". Of course when the girlfriend comes forward with her version of the story, you immediately label it as suspicious because she went through the Martin family spokesman. Nevermind that she's probably a minor, and any good attorney would advise someone to do the same. After all, Zimmerman's only spoken through his attorneys and he's not guilty of anything, right? Then when more witnesses come forward and debate the idea of Zimmerman screaming for help, again they are immediately vilified and only looking to get on TV. Of course during this whole debate you love to point out when others make assumptions on the best evidence available, and then turn around and make tons of them yourself. Next you find out that Martin was no angel, and it had to be that thuggy 17 year old starting shit with a guy almost twice his size after previously minding his own damn Then you went with the narrative that it must have been Trayvon. Of course. That thuggy teen escalated it and all Zimmerman was doing was going back to his car. I mean, gold teeth and suspensions for an empty bag of pot, that must mean he was up to no good! Then of course you move onto the media. The media is behind it all. Without them creating some sort of frenzy poor George would be living his normal life. They always wanna paint a picture that liberal media. Why are they only showing the pictures given to them by their sources? Why don't they have some hidden stash of pictures of everyone they can just magically trot out? Must be some sort of conspiracy to frame Zimmerman! (Nevermind that dozens of more recent pictures of Martin, and a few of Zimmerman have been all over the news media) Of course, after this you go back to me and other posters just looking to start riots if Zimmerman isn't hanged. (and I get crapped on for hyperbole?) Moving on, you claim there's no evidence of a crime, despite there being a pretty fair amount that Zimmerman's story didn't quite add up. And naturally you ignore any evidence of a sloppy police investigation as well and claim we're all jumping to conclusions. (conclusions like, the police never interviewed the girlfriend after the shooting which is a fact). You keep making references to the Duke Lacrosse players, as if the two are all that analogous. Then you dismissed the video originally because it was linked from a liberal blog, nevermind that it was embedded and the source was ABC. Oh yeah, more liberal media just trying to convict Martin. I forgot. But then you love the video after you see an "enhanced" version that shows Zimmerman with a little cut on the back of his head, which somehow exonerates him from a crime completely. Back to the media. Some NBC editor did a shit job of journalism and again you fly off the handle with a "all media is bias" rap. I stick to my original thought that Zimmerman let out a racist slur and of course you think I'm only hearing whatever the media tells me, and that I can't make up my own mind. And then we move on to one of your biggest whoppers, that "without any evidence" I've already convicted the guy. Nevermind that the 9-1-1 tapes are evidence. The video we've all seen of Zimmerman at the police station? Evidence. The witness stories. Evidence. It might not all be admissible, and of course we can interpret it in different ways, but its all evidence of what happened that night. We're all using it to draw many conclusions. Yet you actually had the balls to say "without any evidence". A statement that is based on such a false narrative that I don't even bother to argue with it. Now of course you have to pin the blame on the special prosecutor not calling on the grand jury. Its gotta be political. Again the accusations of bias come around without any relation to the facts. She must be under some sort of pressure. She couldn't possibly do as good of a job as 12 random citizens could in evaluating the evidence. Its not her background or anything. She's not held to any sort of higher standards than a grand jury would be, right? And finally we can't end it all without insulting the family, huh? No insinuation that because they're looking for justice that makes them greedy or some sort of media whores. Making the talk show rounds? Oh no! I know you sure called out Caley Anthony's parents when they were on CNN. You wouldn't stop creating topics vilifying them for appearing on Larry King. I remember that well. So. Everyone's guilty in your eyes but Zimmerman. Us posters for jumping to conclusions, the media for creating their own narrative, the witnesses who are only media whores, the parents you accuse on the same, the special prosecutor for being politically motivated, Al Sharpton and the like for holding rallies, Trayvon Martin for his past brushes with trouble, and basically anyone who thinks Zimmerman might have committed a crime that night. Pretty much everyone is guilty of something in your eyes except for the man who pulled the trigger. All the while you superficially act superior to the rest of us by claiming we can't see through our own judgments, and all we hold are biases, while pretty much exposing your own time and time again. And more goalpost moving you'd like to add? <br class="Apple-interchange-newline">

Yeah. Such a shame you can't just go around stringing up blacks anymore like the good ole days, huh?

It all occurred around 7-7:30pm. As for the rest of your post...

Let's leave the capital punishment for capital murder. I'm surprised they're charging him with 2nd degree, I figured it was something more along the lines of negligent homicide or manslaughter. EDIT: negligible homicide? lulz I'm silly.

Let's say Coach Mac gets hired away after a 8-5 season this year, or maybe he decides to retire because of his health. Bobby Petrino needs a 2nd chance and we're there for him.....Eh? No?

Rick Santorum drops out

Or I can piece together everything I've read and draw my own conclusions. But because I disagree with your view that can only mean I'm prejudice or stupid. Got it. EDIT: and by evidence I mean enough for an arrest and a charge. I can't say one way or the other if Zimmerman is clearly guilty of a crime.

Heard it on youtube without any enhancement, it was pretty clear to me. I misspoke. I meant to say that I heard the 9-1-1 call shortly before it went mainstream. The internet picked up on this story a good 2 weeks before the mainstream news media did.

Once again, someone is assuming that I get all my information from the big news networks, and I only came to my conclusions by being brainwashed by CNN. I read about this story long before Greenbat every posted the original thread in this forum. I heard the 9-1-1 calls shortly after this news story went mainstream. I heard the 'coons' part (which BTW sounds nothing like "cold") before CNN or ABC or anyone else ever assumed that Zimmerman used that racial slur. Good question, because by all accounts the evidence generally speaks for itself.

No thanks. How exactly am I 'masked' as you say, just because we've never met personally? I've met people on this board before, and I did an internship with one of the people on my friend's list. I'm not hiding. You can find me at tailgates & football and basketball games.

It would have required a lot less typing to just say "I got nothing".

Thanks for telling me what I believe. Now find where I stated as such. lolz, "liberal news outlet". Unintentional gold man, gold.
