Tuesday Flotsam and Jetsam
Miscellaneous thoughts and observations.
The situation in Michigan with sign stealing seems to be spiraling out of control. Playoff teams will be allowed to use communication devices such as helmets and wristbands during playoff games eliminating one more difference between the pro and college game. This was a planned move but what's coming out about Michigan's sign stealing will probably make the communications a permanent fixture... Never noticed it before but the White House Press Secretary is Karine Jean-Pierre. The Biden Administration is actually lecturing the public with a variation of a "Karen"... A recent poll showed fewer Americans embracing religion and more embracing violence as a way to get political points across. This seems to me as part of a cycle. Soon more will be embracing religion and as they do fewer will embrace violence. It was ever thus. That said - don't poke the bear... Another interesting development in Texas where highly recruited freshman QB Arch Manning is set to take over for injured Quinn Ewers. Just a little bit of expectations riding on Manning's shoulders... Sad to say but perhaps the first and most vital step in Israel fighting and winning the war against Hamas is a total media blackout during the operation. The corporate media is not their friend and in many cases active enemies and should be kept in the dark. Raw footage of what is actually happening will allow anyone to grasp the situation... You learn something new each day! Clay Helton at USC through 22 games 17-5. Lincoln Riley at USC through 22 games 17-5. One guy got paid and one guy got fired... So whatever happened to Jussie Smollett?... There's an old Chinese saying, "Once people walk away, the tea becomes cold." Investors have walked away and the tea in China has grown cold... Shakespeare famously said that many a truth is said in jest but people have also been jesting that former Democratic Speaker Harry Reid is a pedophile and that former First Lady Michelle Obama has a penis. Just saying but it does make one wonder... The NYT could run an opinion piece by an AI based Che Guevara and not a word would be spoken but if they ran a piece by Tom Cotton or another top Conservative Senator there would be open revolt. Why anyone still subscribes to them is a question but by now it says much more about the person footing the subscription bill than anything...
