I flew home from Afghanistan for emergency leave a couple years ago - I took military transport as far as ATL, so of course, I was in uniform, and i had to take Delta to get out of there.

I was up there for the Cardinals game, and my in laws (season ticket owners) couldn’t understand my discomfort with the number of confederate flags at the tailgates around us, since “they’ve always been part of the union up here.”

My fiancé has been working in higher education since she graduated from undergrad, but I spent 10 years in the army before working in higher Ed. We have vastly different views on what an 18-year-old is capable of, and what they should be held accountable for.

I went to University of Maryland, and one of my additional duties at the school that I work at now is a title IX investigator. I would kill to even have the scale of training they are talking about.

Am I the only person who didn’t know who this guy was before this?

My take away was that he has both acts of overt racism and acts of subtextual racism.

I also think it was meant to physically rattle Hilary, in attempt to make it easier for him to make her loose her cool.

Cool, so we have a replacement for Hope solo, right?

To be fair, it’s also technically an ongoing investigation (although I doubt anything would come of it - it’s pretty rare for a civil case to come to trial before criminal charges, and her legal was probably given a heads up the DA has no intention of filing)

I think it’s a little more outraged that anyone that he was once so benevolent too could turn on him.

did you see this? Its not complete, but its got some of them.

I would argue she doesn’t. As far as I can remember, she’s never asked a straight woman if she had to sleep with a woman to know she was straight.

I work in Higher Education, and just for optics, I know when we’ve received a bequest, we’ve moved money. I.E. announce you are using it to fund the library, and books, and quietly move $1m that was earmarked for that into a scoreboard.

Right? Task the engineering or design students, and get one in house.

I’ve shared a story on here before about him chasing me around with our dissected pig’s head. But that one... It’s hard to explain. It’s kind of been reduced to a catchphrase among the people who were there.

My dad has been gone for 6 years, and when my fiancee mentioned what she was thinking of for her father-daughter dance, she had to pull the car over because I was blubbering.

I went to high school with him, and when people tell me he’s cute, or that he’s sexy, it takes everything I have not to laugh at them. I’ve seen what he grew up to be! But in my head, he is 8-11th grade lab partner josh. The same kid told stories after lights out at space camp about having sex in formaldehyde.

7-9? From what I saw before I fell asleep, thats a lot of faith

I laughed, but I also had to pause and think, because it’s pretty fucking spot on.

I remember watching Fisher make the team run sprints for penalties in the preseason games on Hard Knocks, and wondering if they just weren’t showing him working on situational conditioning to reduce those reactions. You know, simulating not moving the ball and getting false starts, or getting in their face when they…
