This was always a terrible idea. Like Trump is going to see the DNA result, shrug his shoulders, and issue a public mea culpa? C’mon.

Fuckin’ hell yeah. As soon as you engage, you lose. Because they don’t give a shit about any of this; they’re just fucking around. I’m absolutely baffled that she’d bother to try to “convince” Trump of anything, ever.

This. Arguing in bad faith. The guy is intellectually dishonest and runs through rhetorical fallacies faster than anyone can keep track of simply in the course of a single conversation. It’s a waste of time to engage him candidly on any meaningful issue. Complete waste of time.

“Relied on this heritage for professional advancement.”

What I don’t understand is: why doesn’t he vote the way he wants to vote since he now has nothing to lose? Presumably, he was going to get primaried anyway, so he bows out and doesn’t run for reelection. He runs off at the mouth about opposing Trump, and we know Trump never forgets/forgives that shit, and he’ll bury…

No, but I was referencing another QB who dragged down what could have been a far more productive, talented offense around him.

Man, that was INSANE. Remember it when it happened.

The ’04 Redskins had a young, prime Clinton Portis in the backfield, Lav Coles at WR, Cooley at TE, and a 300-year-old Mark Brunell under center. He mostly threw check-downs and receiver screens. Probably 90% of his throws were within 10 yards of the line of scrimmage.

I thought that was out in Poolesville, MD?

That’s pretty fuckin’ rough.

Total digression, but: I’ve always preferred The Outlaws’ “Green Grass and High Tides” to Skynrd’s “Freebird.”

“Your typical good high school football team has at most a handful of guys who will play college football at any level and then the rest who would get humiliated at their first DIII practice.”

Holy....shitballs.

Ah, yes. I do love that podcast and have listened to many of the episodes. Love it. Thanks for the recommendation, though.

Now I must see “Weekend at Bernie’s 2.” Also, I feel like the guys at MST3K should riff on this movie.

If you’re truly interested, this is a pretty cogent piece on that very question.

All of the other responses you’ve received on this are likely accurate—the strongman stance, the child-like petulance, obstinate posturing, etc.

Holy shit--I thought I was the only one who remembered that episode. And Monroe brought back the father (whose name escapes me) to the house and the two women try to rape them again by trapping them in their apartment. The whole thing is played for laughs.

Ah, a young Brad Wesley.

Around the 8:50 mark is where Lemon starts to lose his shit and tells the guy to shut up.
