Quote from: jesmu84 on <strong>Today</strong> at 05:57:54 PMWe didn't hold anyone accountable after the secession/treason of the civil war.

We didn't hold Nixon or admin accountable.

We didn't hold Bush or admin accountable.

We haven't held any Epstein associates accountable.

I just don't see it happening.

What about Pelosi?  She wasn't held accountable either

Thought this was gonna be a thread about Passover, which would have been odd because there aren't many Jewish folks 'round these parts.

Quote from: GoldenEagles03 on <strong>Today</strong> at 10:28:08 AMI actually don't agree with this. There was a point where we were starting to get blown out and they went into the huddle with Shaka, and Fru looked to be the only one looking Shaka in the eye and nodding in agreement when Shaka said "we have a chance to plant a flag and show what we are about" (or something along those lines). I think Fru cares.

Yeah, I usually like and agree with Hards Alumni's takes, but I'm not thrilled with declarations that so-and-so athlete "didn't seem to really care." Too subjective, and too based on emotion (vs actual data). And questioning an athlete's character and competitiveness based on, what? A facial expression or something? Seems over the top.

Quote from: TSmith34, Inc. on <strong>Today</strong> at 01:34:59 PMHistorically accurate, but I have the sense that it is different this time. (My innate Gen X cynicism is weirdly MIA right now).

The first step towards accountability happened last Tuesday. The administration and associated co-conspirators are absolutely terrified, with the tell being Blanche's hilariously impotent yappings that oversight itself is criminal.

I think the difference this time is going to be 1) the shear depth, breadth, and magnitude of the criminality, and 2) that the crimes are committed out in the open. It's not like we need Woodward and Berstein to break a hidden story, the Trump administration commits three Watergates per day and then brags about them.

Quote from: Newsdreams on November 11, 2026, 03:12:45 PMWasting limited practice time in FTs is coaching malpractice. In reality FTs almost always are the least important of factors in a game.

Yup.

I was fortunate enough to spend two seasons assistant-coaching under one of the most successful high school basketball coaches in North Carolina, and we never spent practice time on free throws or 3-point shooting.

The players were expected to get to the gym early and work on those things, and all of them did. We coaches also often would arrive early and work on individual stuff with the players, including shooting.

Each practice usually lasted 90 minutes and we had so much to go over. Time was precious, and our coach had an extremely detailed practice plan that accounted for every minute.

and yet it will still be referred to as "Husky Stadium" by all other than the sign out front, sportscasters, UW officals, and maybe Columbia Bank employees...


Quote from: MU82 on <strong>Today</strong> at 04:13:42 PMFor the first time in its 126-year history, Husky Stadium will drop its mascot name and take that of its new sponsor - Columbia Bank.

Sports Business Journal says the agreement is worth $70 million across 10 years, the largest stadium sponsorship deal in college football history.
