Others have responded to my posts on this saying the same. Hope you’re right. I don’t follow (beyond the bit I’ve read and highlights of the team’s WC performance), so I’ll defer to you guys.

Man, so many people are replying, saying essentially the same thing as you. I hope y’all are right. I don’t follow the team (outside of the couple of games/highlights I have watched), but it would be incredible if they all no-showed/rejected the invite.

He’ll honor the invite, knowing that Rapinoe won’t show. And then he’ll take the opportunity to publicly bury her verbally, in front of whatever teammates/coaching staff makes the trip to the White House. He’s a petty sack of shit, but that seems like the tact he’ll take.

Great point.

This. As much as I’d like to see other powerful scumbags (like Trump) get ensnared in this and face legal ramifications, it’s highly unlikely. Any evidence or flipping would have been done a long time ago. Epstein is like most other super-rich folks when faced with legal trouble: throw tons of money at it, use your…

Maybe against lower-level government officials. But guys like Barr have Secret Service protection by their side. The sergeant-at-arms tries anything, and there’s likely an armed stand0ff.

It’s strange that Flutie got bounced out of the league (initially) in 1989. By 1990, the Oilers were putting up huge numbers/points with the run-n-shoot offense. And by 1991, the Falcons did the same with the Red Gun offense. Both spread formations, multiple receiver sets, both operating primarily out of the shotgun.

Thank you. Just watched the trailer—this is definitely the kind of pulp garbage I want to watch!

What show is the pic from (with the black guy helping the white guy down the alley)?

Great read. Thanks, Dom.

Came here to post this. Nobody who had any football sense ever thought Rob Johnson was better than Flutie.

“Possible concussion”?!!?

I was looking at that, too. Just garbage-ass helmets. I mean, in my experience, helmets all the way through the 1990s were shitty.

Man, that’s amazing. Good on you. We did cry-it-out with our first, and he’s a solid sleeper. Our second just miraculously began sleeping through the night around 4 months, but he’s certainly an early riser.

Smart move.

Yes, but is the tournament as good as Starrcade ’89's “Future Shock”? I think not.

DC is going to be fucked all day/night on Thursday. Traffic is going to be a bitch (Memorial Bridge is already under heavy construction), and Metro is going to be utterly useless. The whole city is going to be gridlocked. Add in this Proud Boys bullshit and tanks rolling down Pennsylvania Avenue, and it should be a…

Interesting. Thanks for writing that.

Heyman will succeed, because he’s got a great wrestling mind.
