Quote from: wadesworld on February 17, 2026, 07:01:54 PMWhy is tanking an issue? It's also not really fixing bad teams, so it's just hurting their businesses. Look at who the bad teams have been. Not many go from bad to good. Bad teams are usually staying bad for a long time. Pels, Nets, Hornets, Wizards, Portland, Utah, Sacramento. If they want to keep tanking, let them. Just hurting themselves.

Then should they lower the ticket prices if their goal is to lose?  Whatever happened to actually trying?

Okay.  Perhaps I am biased. 

Quote from: MuggsyB on February 17, 2026, 07:00:57 PMDo you feel the judges in general have been anti Team USA?  I saw the replay and agree with your assessment of the situation.

Manatees are very similar to Newfies and St. Bernard's.  They're incapable of aggressive behavior and large.  That's not a sin. 

Quote from: jesmu84 on February 17, 2026, 07:07:53 PMMugs. What's your opinion on what our country's current policy agenda is toward the environment?

Piss poor.  We've done a terrible job for years and years and Republicans have been worse.  But to make serous impact we would have to essentially change our way of life.

That waste would be death, stop attacking them.

I think prominent Nazi tattoos, open aggressive white supremacist behavior, etc are far bigger considerations when it comes to profiling the reasons for extreme violence against children. Oh Mrs. Thepoint

When we joined the Big East I was told we are close friends with UCONN and Yes Notre Dame behind the scenes. Everyone thought UCONN would beat Marquette in the 1st Home Game. But I heard positive things and sure enough Steve scored 41 points and Marquette was off to the races and made the Big Dance 8 Years in a row. Felt positive things then and feel positive things about next year too.
