It’s that time of year (four weeks earlier than originally planned) to announce this years winner of the coveted Bye Week Bi-Babe selection. As usual the voting was very close. As you know candidates are judged by an assortment of available quotes, sexy pics and who has a chance at you guys liking, it isn’t easy. So here she is…
This years winner –
Aubrey Plaza
Congratulations, Ms Plaza. She looks completely thrilled, doesn’t she?
“I know I have an androgynous thing going on, and there’s something masculine about my energy,” Plaza said in an interview with the Advocate. “Girls are into me – that’s no secret. Hey, I’m into them too. I fall in love with girls and guys. I can’t help it.”
We’re honored to have Ms Plaza recognized as this year’s Bi-Babe as the Miami Dolphins move to a new beginning of sorts with this upcoming game featuring Tua Tagovailoa.
It’s Tua Time!
Finsmob Unleashed 
She looks more like the bitch of the week, I don’t see it.
She has a odd look to her, and there are much better shots of her. I think she is attractive, just not in a traditional way, much the same with cara delevingne who i do absolutely find her attractive lol.
I was trying to figure out what I’ve seen her in.
Scott Pilgrim vs The World
I have seen her in a few things but thats the first that comes to mind for me when im trying to remember the ones she has been in.
Another one she was in was Mike and Dave need wedding dates with Anna Kendricks
She was in the show Parks and Recreation even though I’ve never seen it.

Kong,
Worked for the Cards because they completely redid their entire team, coaching etc, and brought in a coach that wanted to run a system that was perfect for him and not for Rosen, i dont think its the same circumstance.
Of course it’s not the same circumstance, but it could still work or could be done, you don’t need a coaching change. Lawrence has the prototypical size, arm strength, movement, he’s got it all. He’s Wentz, without the eradict play.
No reason we couldn’t trade Tua and take Lawrence, if we had the top pick, but I don’t see it happening, so these what its are moot.
I agree its moot, but as for me, i wouldn’t think that our coaches or FO is in a place where they would consider it. Lawrence also isn’t better than Tua. I mean we have the rest of the season to see, but even if he has some rough outings, im not seeing Lawrence being an upgrade, especially not so large a one to bail on your 5th overall selection from the previous year.
Wyo, I would have gone with Michelle Rodriguez but she was dating last year’s winner and that wouldn’t have appeared right.
she’s actually the type of woman i’m attracted to, not bad looking and crazy as fuck.
i do think she is significantly crazy and its not an act lol.
Her eyes and facial emotions scream there is some fucking crazy ass running around in my head and tells me to do bad things.
oh yeah….lol.
Back to Tua Time, it’s going to be like opening day all over again. I hope the results are different this time.
I missed Marino’s first game. Sept 1983 I was traveling and in transit to move to L.A. Went to Gainsville to watch the U vs FL, then went to Purdue to visit a HS friend and watch the ND game, then drove as far as Houston to take stuff to Burbank. When I got home I looked up the box score and saw the great game Marino had, even in defeat I was thrilled. I hope Tua’s first game comes with a W, but if it’s anything like Dan’s first game…
i was in japan so i couldn’t watch it
i do remember watching the prior super bowl to MARINO’S draft (well, the first quarter) in guam. then had to board a c-130 headed to the island of tinian and couldn’t watch the rest of the game. hell, i didn’t even find out the score for 12 days until i got back to base.
KONG, from the last page ;
my personal motto was ” i don’t want to die for my country, i want to make him die for his”….. just saying. 🙂
My best friend is a Marine, so I understand the mentality. I have nothing but respect for the way ya’ll operate.
thanks bro.
She was also in the Marvel TV series “Legion” on FX (cancelled after 2 seasons) She played one of Legions multiple personalities, a real wackado.
(in case some don’t follow Marvel enough to know, Legion is Professor X from the X-men’s illegitimate son and is the most powerful psychic mutant ever born, supposedly strong enough in the comics to destroy the entire universe)
and he is stark raving mad!
Son — maybe cause am going OD, but still into more classic and girly bi-babes.
funny little known fact……olivia actually gave me a hug and kissed my cheek on my 21st birthday outside the playboy club in the abc entertainment center in los angeles. and in front of 5 guys in my platoon, so i’m glad i had witnesses because that was way before cell phones, lol.
one of my “forrest gump” brush with fame moments…..lol.
You are a lucky man…… and take it cause it happened she is a nice woman.
Son likes his “dirty girls”
Guys (don’t tell Herd) but they are ALL crazy. It’s just how crazy that comes into play.
Well there is crazy and waking up to someone staring at you like they were just about to put a ice pick in your ear crazy.
that fall under the “danger zone” area of the chart above. LOL
I dated a girl who was super hot, model hot, way too hot to ever even speak to me hot.
She was bat shit crazy. I thought I could put up with crazy for the crazy sex. Then she burned my car for not calling her back…..
Here ya go Stanger
Much more my style.
don’t mean to offend anyone but that song “crazy bitch” sums it ALL up for me.

Guys (don’t tell Herd) but they are ALL crazy. It’s just how crazy that comes into play.
ahem….I do read….not sure where intelligence is on that chart of yours?
Here’s what I’ve learned in all my years. Everyone is crazy, men and women. I have some crazy in me, no doubt about it. Not torch your car crazy, but I have had my moments. Guys, at least the ones I’ve known, CRAZY af. So here it is, in case you didn’t know. We think men are just as crazy as you think women are.
Yeah, but you’re crazy. Of course you think that. 😉 Lol
LOL Herd — but you’ve never met Rock. He’s stable as stable can be. You meet him and it is like there’s the Pope, Sswami, Dalai Lama or something.
I agree with Herd, guys are crazy. Hell I want due process, lower taxes, energy independence, 1st and 2nd amendments to stay as they are, private health care, and a job, so I’ve been told I’m crazy.
LMAO…yep.
We’re all crazy…just have to find the perfect crazy.
Yeah — crazy in different ways in some ways and on average, but no escaping crazy….. except for my Mom of course. 🙂
If you cant establish normal, you cant establish crazy so etiehr everyone is a variation of crazy, or they are a variation of normal.
This just in:
Dolphins organization announces Tua as starter. Fans blog immediately talks of drafting replacement and trading veteran backup.
It’s how we roll🙄
Sounds great, but he is looking for balls his way.
No reason to bite the hand that feeds you.
I think Herd is 102.54738264% correct!
Well, that was hilarious catching up today.
Tua hasn’t shown shit yet.
Can we watch him for 10 games first before we speculate on next QB pick? Sure hope Fitz stays.
Like a bunch of ?s gossiping. Lmao.
“Not torch your car crazy, but moments….”
Like Danaerius in GoT? Scorched earth?
It happens….lol.
New list:
Hypocrite on SCOTUS nomination (it’s only been 4 years):
Graham
Mitchell
Orob
Mf13ss
Who will own their hypocrisy? I’m thinking no one else will put their name on the list.
Just curious.
Don’t worry about it. It happened, even if was interesting to play back all the comments when Mitch blocked Garland. Power does what power does. But heck — some dems are talking about expanding the court.
Not worried at all….you of all people should know me.
Only reason brought it up is beacause of pp’s comment if you don’t bring it up you’re in agreement. I brought it up, so to be sure, I don’t agree.
Why the Butt Hurtedness Krishna?
You know if the Democrats had the majority in the Senate they would have done the same thing with Garland right?
Do your job as Senate body…. not butt hurt, guess you missed the hypocrisy part. Should your name be on the list?
winning elections have consequences………lol.
BE HERE NOW…. more of a
Ram Dass follower.
Heck yeah they would have. But sorta fun seeing the clips of what the GOP senators said at the time. They were all righteous about it. Turns out they were just doing what you are talking about.
funny how you had odumma as prez but didn’t control the senate in 2016. kind of like comparing apples to oranges, huh?…..your tears taste like victory…..lol.
Top — I never voted for Obama. So not sure why you mention. I liked the old days when High Court Noms were judged on qualifications…. whichever side put them up.
ok sorry, the way you hate on TRUMP and anyone that sides with him, i thought you did.
I’m a NeverTrump guy…. not like am hiding it. But with that comes that 98% of my votes in my life have been Republican. And have a lot of pro-Trump friends….so not hate, just discussion.
ok, i just can’t hate on anyone that loves America like TRUMP, but now those blm marxist and antifa pussies can suck on a bag of dicks
Not a fan of the far left either. Why was so happy it is Biden instead of Bernie. Not sure what would have done otherwise…. but probably vote Trump.
New list:

Wyoming85
Who will own their hypocrisy? I’m thinking no one else will put their name on the list.
Just curious.
(like Chucky has an ounce more integrity than Mitch!) 🙄
Ginsberg got approved by a 96-3 vote. I miss those days.
Hmmmm
Put your name up, Top. Looks like it’s all about power…
Lmfao…my point.
funny how you had odumma as prez but didn’t control the senate in 2016. kind of like comparing apples to oranges, huh?…..your tears taste like victory…..lol.
For the record I was not looking to replace Tua with Lawrence. I just asked the question if Houston has the top pick which is ours what would you do? I’m in favor of a kings ransom of picks for years to come. Unless Tua is really bad which I don’t think he will be, I think we would trade the pick. That said I don’t think Houston will have the top pick. They’re losing but they’re competitive so they’ll win a few more games. There are 6 teams in the league right now with just 1 win and the Jets at 0, so there is a lot of competition for that top pick.
Anyone notice that a capital J looks a little strange on this blog? Never noticed before.
Noticed prior and wondered.
Of all the strange stuff I’ve seen on this blog, and you’re questioning the capital J?
Lol….he’s sensitive.
LOL, I just noticed it. I work with type and fonts so it jumped right out at me after I posted. I don’t think it’s always been that way. Somehow the font might have changed.
Tim Knight, it jumped out at me, too, because my first name starts with a J and thought it odd.
Hypocrites that can’t admit their hypocrisy….guess that makes sense.
At least Wyo did…..only truth I see.
Top, you’ve lost me.
i still can’t see the hypocrisy, i just assumed they changed their stance on the entire matter AFTER they saw how those cocksuckers treated kavanaugh.
Uh…the Senate’s job is to vett a SCOTUS nomination and they failed to do that for 8 months under the pretense of the people should choose within an election year.
Are you dense?
This is an election year and they voted within 11 DAYS of an election.
Seriously? Nicest I can be at this point.
yeah, so dense that i would WASTE my time trying to get another liberal un-constitutionalist on the supreme court, knowing how you don’t have the votes, there genius ……….oh, and this election…….we did………because we did have the votes, lol.
Top….come back to earth. You can’t even admit your truth. I thought differently of you.
There she is! I dig Aubrey Plaza. Poor Aubrey had a stroke at 20YO, crazy shit. All people who have strokes are crazy, trust me
you may be right, i had one in 2017…..lol.
I had one in 2012
Tim – I think the font changed. It wasn’t always like that
Yeah I’m pretty sure of it. LOL
Not to Jingoistically Jab like Jack Ripper driving and Jackknifing an 18-wheeler, but seems this could lead to Jellification,
I will wait this out to give everyone on this blog a chance to admit their hypocrisy.
So far Wyo has stepped up.
Top, can’t, but his name should go there, too, since it’s all about power.
Scary as shit to me these arguments about autocracy v democracy. WTF?
I’m definitely hypocritical, what is you want me to cop to? About the SCOTUS nomination? I didn’t really a give a f*ck either way, that’s the truth. I think she’s probably very qualified but the timing wasn’t exactly perfect, but then again, you don’t time the death of a SCTUS, so I didn’t really see it as being totally wrong either.
^SCOTUS
So are you a hypocrite, Mike E? Just trying to figure out your game. Did you side with putting off a SCOTUS nomination for 8 months until you got your way? Now, 11 days from an election. Truth hurts sometimes.
Gotta let it go man. They said something in 2016 and broke it in 2020. Simple as that. What they all said 4 years ago was just cause made it seem more reasonable at the time.
Power…apparently is what it’s about.
I thought it was about democracy and doing your job.
yeah, you can put my name on the list that loves and fought for my country, i don’t mind at all.
Put your name on the list yourself, and own it.
NOT a problem.
You are less than 2 weeks away from being able to use the phrase “elections have consequences” the other way around
Possibly. Again, I voted for you know who but I don’t expect my life to change one bit.
i wouldn’t hold my breath……lol.
Then you aren’t paying attention Top
What’s the question?
It was probably AOC and her comrades who changed the font. Kidding! Just kidding!
Lmao….love the conspiracy.
Krishna – I see massive amounts of hypocrisy when I see my friends who want Biden put up memes and posts on FB endlessly about how much Trump lies and that’s why they’re voting for Biden. Please, just choosing one liar for a different one. I see it every day and it makes me laugh and get angry at the same time. Major hypocrisy.
i still can’t see the hypocrisy, i just assumed they changed their stance on the entire matter AFTER they saw how those cocksuckers treated kavanaugh……..things change!
Seriously? Bubble wrap. Be here now.
Not sure how this ever changes with tit-for-tat view points.
At some point one has to step up. I see NO one stepping up.
Changing a stance and then rationalizing why it’s okay is exactly what hypocrisy is
You don’t just see it – you are highlighting it in your responses
The phrase you are looking for isn’t “I don’t see it” it’s “I don’t care”
Try to be real about it at least
Kavanaugh is on the Supreme Court though.
Look over there…
BE HERE NOW, must be an impossibility for hypocrisy.
Why get angry? You just said they both lie. I could put out how much I think Trump lies, but why bother? Only two choices in the election. And the polls say all but like 3% of minds are made up….. and close to half the votes cast.
Angry….is that directed at me stangerx?
Quite frankly, I’m laughing at the hypocrisy. Is that allowed?
The hypocrisy, wherever it comes from, floors me. Both sides included.
There’s no anger, mostly sadness.
I replied to Mike E (you know how the streams work). So no was not about you. Love you man….but you get the idea.
I want ask this question; If the Democrats had the majority in the Supreme Court, would they be looking to expand it?
What if question. Lame and irrelevant.
Not sure what that means. The first I heard of it was when Biden was asked about it on 60 Minutes last night.
But I’ll ask again, what is the question about hypocrisy?
You mean if it was a 5-4 scotus?
Or do you mean the majority in Congress (they have the majority in the house but not the senate)?
Joe Biden was asked last night on 60 Minutes if he won the presidency would he push to expand the Supreme Court and he didn’t say no. So to me that is saying he’s open to changing the Constitution because his side has a minority on the Supreme Court. Sounds like Part II of changing things like the Electoral College because it didn’t work for them.
If the Dems had the majority in the Court they would not be looking to “pack” it. And only some of them are even now.
They all are swamp creatures!
Flipping and Flopping!
To Frack or not to Frack?????
That is the fracking question!!!!!! 😉
I think you meant, “majority in the Senate” not Supreme Court, right Tim?
No, see my reply to you.
Your reply to me indicates that’s what you meant
FYI – the size of the Supreme Court is not in the constitution
Oh I thought the makeup of the branches of government are all in the Constitution?
But I was referring to the question about expanding the Supreme Court. That’s what was asked of Biden last night on 60 Minutes.
Yeah, I’m not sure what he means.
Neither do I because how would anyone know what you’re talking about? LOL
Deflection, lmao.
Question about hypocrisy, to Tim K.
There are those on this blog that staunchly defended the position that a president does not have the right to select the next SCOTUS within a presidential election year. Therefore, the Senate refused to even have a hearing for his nomination by Obama for eight months since it was within an election year. The argument by McConnell, Senate leader.
Now that we’re a month of a presidential election, Whatever her name is is confirmed within 29 days of an election.
What part do you not get. Hypocrisy, maybe?
And, my challenge to those in the Mitch McConnell ideology I add this: it’s hypocritical, ergo, and are you man enough to say you’re a hypocrite. Lol. Most don’t, and our cowards.
Mitch isn’t the only hypocrite!
You can go back and see everyone of them flop on the subject!
What part of that can’t you understand??????????????????????????????????
Calm down, Krishna. Geez! The conversation was all over the place about hypocrisy and just thought I’d ask how it started.
My opinion about it is what Stanger said: “Power does what power does.” The side that has the majority has the power to push it through or block it. That’s how they’ve aways operated. I don’t lose sleep over it either way.
Tim
I think the question posed to Biden has been if he will pack the court or expand it if he wins and has the power
And winning and having the power means, the democrats have to keep the majority in the house, flip the senate, and Biden has to win
So 3 things have to happen
While there are polls that indicate those 3 things will happen, I don’t think anyone should assume it will happen
The makeup of the scotus doesn’t affect whether Biden can do it or not. That’s why I am confused about your question.
Expanding the court would need to pass the congress (like any other law) and then Biden can’t veto it
Then Biden would get to nominate 2 (at least ) additions to the scotus to flip it from 6-5 (still conservative but probably not enough to lead to reversal on things like roe v wade) or 4 judges to go to 7-6
It’s pretty unpopular to pack the court. I don’t think Biden supports it, but if some of those cases we mentioned before come into question…
I didn’t work when for FDR in in the depresssion
But if some of the right of privacy issues are affected by the current makeup, I can see it picking up steam
I don’t think Biden currently supports it. But I do think of those 3 things fall into place, there will be a lot of momentum for it to happen
I don’t blame him for being evasive In Answering it. It’s seems unlikely but if public opinion changes, then that my alter the likelihood

****
The nomination (bush the sitting president) and aprpoval by the senate is in the constitution
Which is why the phrase “election ps have consequences” is correct
But if the pendulum swings in 10 days, a lot of people are going to remember people who said that
I’ve already cut and pasted in preparation….lol
That’s not how I heard it, Maybe Stanger can jump in because he mentioned it and that’s what lead me to posting about it.

Don’t worry about it. It happened, even if was interesting to play back all the comments when Mitch blocked Garland. Power does what power does. But heck — some dems are talking about expanding the court.
Think he meant that if the makeup of the court was 6-3 democratic appointees, it would be completely off the table
It only becomes an option when the makeup changes to 6-3
Which will happen if barret is confirmed (she will be)
I’ve said it before and I will say it again
5-4 is perfect and I prefer 5-4 conservative to 5-4 liberal
But 6-3 conservative is a nightmare to me in theory
In practice though, I don’t know that it’s going to be the issue people say it is
It’s the threat of reversal on what of the big right of Privacy cases that will get people to raise an eyebrow….and that just may never happen
I’m not sure, if those 3 things happen, it’s not just wiser for democrats to focus on legislation and leave the scotus alone
When you can actually write the laws, you don’t have to worry about court interpretation
Packing the court might be a little tit for tat for my taste p. It might not be a smart thing to do, even if power has shifted.

Mike
I actually think it’s rare that an election has direct immediate consequences on a lot of us
To me it’s more about picking a direction for the country
I’ll adjust either way
Bingo!
Krishna
For what it’s worth
I think Tim is very open minded and will listen to your POV without being a jerk about it
So it’s worth it to discuss these things with him and then hear his point of view as well
Obviously, I don’t feel that way about everyone…
Thank you, Piggy.
Mike E, I would be grateful if you showed me the 25,000 lies Biden has told to the public v Trump since his election.
Please…it’s not even close and reminds of grasping for straws.
Not even fucking close!
I don’t even know why I start????????
Same reason you eat pork, Bc you are evil
I had Beef all day if that makes you feel better?
If crazy means insane, and insanity is defined as abnormal perception, behavior, and interaction. Then if everybody is crazy, the only true crazies are the ones who are normal and sane.
So stop being normal and sane you crazy fucks!
Lmao…thank you!
Piggy, okay I just looked it up. I thought the Supreme Court was made up of 9. I see that’s not always the case. I didn’t know there was no set number. Obviously you lawyers know it better than me. So I learned something today. 🙂
It’s traditionally made up of 9
But that’s not in the constitution, it’s just something we settled on a long time ago. I don’t know the source
FDR tried to change it and failed
So theoretically it can happen now without violating the constitution – but it violates tradition
20 years ago, it probably would not have been discussed
It’s where we are now politically
Gotcha! There is a war being waged on tradition good and bad so I get it.
This is why I hate blogging/texting/email. I can’t be real without someone or anyone ascribing where i’m coming from in a genuine way.
I have been a sarcastic laughing mother fucker these days, truth be told.
I don’t need to calm down, I need to laugh.
I can fart if that helps
🐖💨
Is that a laughing fart? I never got fart jokes.
If I laughed as I farted
I would probably poop a little
It’s not recommended
That’s not how comments like “What part do you not get. Hypocrisy, maybe?”
That’s not a good way to communicate when all someone did was ask you a question about what we’re talking about? I think I’m pretty well known here for giving my opinion. LOL
You left out your first statement and start..
“Calm down Krishna, Geez” is that how you start conversations or just those you oppose?
Just a simple question.
Seriously?
I will LISTEN to.anyone.
And for the record, Krishna, I never do this after an election. LOL
LMFAO…neither do I.
I’m more of a ‘get what you pay for’ guy.
I’m a okay “the people have spoken” type of guy.
Yet, the people did not speak about this SCOTUS nomination. McConnell did.
I was talking about elections. I already said the majority side in power can push or hold up stuff. That is ultimately the people speaking as they vote for that.
I may not agree with anyone on all issues, but I believe in the voice of the people over my own personal beliefs. It’s not all about me. I may totally disagree with the direction of the country, but I respect that others see it differently. I vote my principles. That’s it!
Me too Tim Knight. I vote for a candidate, not a party.
Trump’s not a worthy candidate, in any way, imo, especially after the last 4 years.
He does rallies and golfs. Stellar leadership!
Well she just got confirmed
I thought they were voting tomorrow but it’s official she has been confirmed
You all said she would be approved. It was about a lot of political barking but it was always going to happen.
hey, when the presidency AND the senate majority match., AND they have enough votes, it’s like clock work baby…….lol
ACB is approved 52-48 bitches………lol.
Did you put your name on the hypocrite list? Lol….probably not. So sad.
don’t know – don’t care……lol.
Never would of thought of you as a coward…
not a coward, i just don’t give a fuck what any America hating liberal thinks, that’s all.
We are all one, TOP. Hate away.
disagree, i wish ALL americans loved america, way too many pieces of shit want to tear the country down…..which is sad.
TOP, I will not back down to you. Liberals, and whatever I am, I challenge you to put your name on the hypocrite list. Seems you belong there based on your rhetoric.
I won’t look back, but if you can’t or anyone on this blog can’t put their name on the hypocrite list, because they are a hypocrite, that’s for you to live with. Not me.
look, i don’t give a fuck about you backing down or not, for that matter, what any liberal thinks, PERIOD.
BE HERE NOW!
and drink liberal tears!
I’m not crying., trust me. Much graver things in this world to care about.
Krishna, did you have a problem with Justice Barrett?
Or just that the Republicans held the Presidency and the Senate?
Honest question no digs!
Since you are a fan of what the party with the power can do….. you OK with the Dems expanding the court if they get the Senate and Oval office in this election? All legal.
As long as its an odd number.
Why would it make a difference to me?
It will just lengthen everything!
You can answer that question above if you like?
Not a fan of power, at all. Do your fucking job, lol.
Garland should have gotten at least a hearing, Comey have no problem with (except what happened with Garland) and don’t want the Court expanded….. even if understand why some Dems are for it as payback.
Honestly, I could give a shit about the nomination, as it’s farcical, imo.
I think I’ve been pretty clear what my opinion is, and your being obtuse if you don’t understand.
I was actually being sincere!
But you answered it anyway!
TRUMP won a 4 year term, NOT 3.5…….lol.
LMFAO, at stupidity. Obama won 8 years not 7 and half. Just have to call it like I see it
just too bad he didn’t have a senate majority….lol.
Power corrupts and thought you were a defender of that. NOT!
swamp creatures from both parties hate TRUMP……lol.
Oh Stanger
I’m a SMALL Government guy!
I don’t want them to expand anything!
And would really like them to get out of half the shit the are into that they shouldn’t be!!!!!!
I’m a small gov guy as well. But when it comes to the Supreme Court don’t think the number of justices matters much…. even if would like to keep at nine. Been there a few times — pretty cool place.
if obama wasn’t such a fucked up president, he would of had a majority senate (lost it in 2014) to get his lame duck nominee though the process….. too funny……lol.
They actually didn’t even hold a vote
They didn’t hold a vote bc mccconell knew Merrick Garland would “get through the process” even without a Republican majority
So that majority you are puffing your chest out about was clearly going to turn their back on your logic
McConnell didn’t allow the senators to vote. It wasn’t that the Republican senators voted against garland, it was that no one got to vote at all
i see you missed the lame duck part….lol.
I didn’t miss it
It doesn’t make sense
“Lame duck” doesn’t traditionally mean some one who will get enough votes if a vote happens….
You don’t call some on who’s about to pass a “lame duck nominee” unless you are changing the meaning of lame to be the opposite of what it is
Not holding a vote is moving the goalposts
I want to shutout the jests 24-0
I don’t want to remove the end zone to make that happen
The senate and presidency don’t need to lineup up to hold a vote on a nominee
It never had to in the past
That’s a bad precedent to set
It’s part of what has creat3d a problematic environment in Washington
If you pull the pendulum all the way back, it will crash back. It always does
dude was such a dick head, his ineptitude made TRUMP actually run for office…….lol.
you would have to be crazy to vote for a guy that will sell you out to the highest bidder, Biden is that guy.
Oh god, here we go. I’m out.

you know……. if those cheating liberal bastards don’t steal this election and TRUMP wins fair and square……. this whole point of supreme court discussion will be moot…..lol.
Yep would be moot if Trump wins. In the most remote recess of your mind is there a chance Biden can win without cheating? Surely you’ve seen the polls.
Polls are for influencing future outcomes, not predicting.
nope…..and i’ve seen those fake news polls……lol.
So there can be only one outcome I take it. Call me crazy but I can see two, and if Trump wins he does.
Rams look pretty good
The good news is, it will be a short week for them
and they have to travel from the left coast
i hope they win tonight,
kiss of death.
1. short week
2. traveling across the country
3. relaxed coming off a win.
It’s usually the traveling team after a short week that has the biggest disadvantage
Goff has been inaccurate
Aaron Donalds a beast, we better double team him, what a test for Tua’s first game!

The sad part about the lefts position on the supreme ct is that they think ACB would rule in favor of her beliefs instead of the law. i doubt that would ever happen,
in fact i think just the reverse.
The left is making this stink so they can justify packing the court if the corrupt politician wins.
that would be a communistic decision.
Communist don’t have separation of powers much less a powerful Supreme Court to undermine the executive branch
I think when you guys talk about this stuff you really oversimplify the law
Barrett is an originalist
She no less likely to engage judicial activism than a liberal judge bc of it
“The goal of originalism is really just to argue that the constitutional rule that’s embodied in the constitution should be understood in the way that it was understood by those who adopted it in the first place, and that courts ought to be constrained by that understanding when it’s possible to determine what that understanding is,”
An originalist judge interprets the law, they just use a different method
they try to interpret it to be what the people who drafted it meant the words to be
She actually went in great depth about this at her hearings
It doesn’t necessarily fall left or right on particular issues
But it does come head to head with the right to privacy line of cases
Bottom line is, as a judge, she is trying to guess what some one was thinking
There is a healthy skepticism of judges ability to infer intent by originalists who are also textualists but it doesn’t mean interpretation doesn’t happen
it’s hard to try to interpret what the drafter of a law meant without inferring something
That’s just human
That’s a quote in quotation marks
Not my words
I don’t oink that eloquently
shouldn’t the constitution not be ambiguous?
Yeah but is from 1788
This is a good game to watch tonight. The Rams are our next opponent and Tua’s first start. You know our coaches are watching.
this broadcaster just said the last time the Rams won a championship was 1951.
what happened to kurt warner and marshall faulk beating the titans in the superbowl, i think it was 2000.
But that was St. Louis
Maybe he meant the last time LA won?
same team, but i get it now. thru me off!LOL
I don’t think Barrett is any particular danger to precedent like Roe vs. Wade. I think she is likely to rule in the most conservative manner in things like 2nd Amendment issues. Everything else is theatrics and noise.
I think she’s a direct threat to roe v wade
It’s not bc of her bel ifs
It’s bc of her originalism advocacy
The line of cases originlist always attack are anything that mention a right to privacy
That’s roe v wade, griswold and obergefell
The solution though (for some one like me who values those decisions) isn’t to reshape the court, it’s to actually draft legalization that preserves the right of privacy
An originalist won’t overturn anything if the legislation specifically states a “right to Privacy
“

________________________________________________
that should not be a consideration for either side, the fact that the left brings that issue up is scary
No judge should go beyond the applicable law to consider its decisions;
That’s what ACB has been saying all a long.
Piggy, I appreciate your voice on law and bi-partisan views.
law should not be ambiguous, it should be cut & dry.
But it’s not
Especially when it’s old
It’s not easy to know what was meant when something was written 200 years ago
Originalism just means the judge guesses what was meant when it was drafted
But it concedes that the law is not cut and dry
She’s just trying to apply method to her interpretation
Which is pretty interesting (I love the the idea of it)
But personally I think it’s usually full of holes
Piggy – Did she not say that griswold and obergefell was establish law and that established law should not be revisited except when something significantly changed?
She did say it was established precedent
But then she explained stare decisis and one of the factors
“whether the precedent has produced a substantial reliance interest that prevents the court from”
As a basis to put some people at ease in either roe c wade would be reversed
That is actually one of three factors
All three are
“First, whether the court is deciding a constitutional or statutory case; second, whether the underlying decision is inconsistent with justice or the social welfare; and third, whether the precedent has produced a substantial reliance interest that prevents the court from”
So it’s not easy to reverse established precedent
But makes no mistake about it
Those cases hang on a thread
Bc those cases find a right of privacy in the 14th amendment (that’s oversimplifying)
And she’s made it clear, she doesn’t think the constitution says that
Interesting
Personally, I prefer a Court that does not legislate from the bench.
I do too
Especially for my work
But they all have to interpret something
It’s not realistic to expect the law to cover everything that may occur
We are lucky in that are constitution is so old we have these issues
I just read that Chile is trying to create a new constitution
And there’s is only from 1980
We have a unique problem
We have one of the oldest constitutions in the world
Even the country we borrow everything from (uk) has been adding and adding and adding documents (they don’t have one constitution)
So we are a victim of our own success
We have a old constitution
People have to think about what it meant to be able to apply it
And that’s a guessing game at every level
That’s a good take. We do have an old constitution.
It’s a testament to being a good constitution
Holy fuck. Folks know Trump has already appointed something like 200 judges, right? The damage has been done. The Dems are keeping the pack the court thing going just to fuck with the Republicans and give them think about. But, this President has already set the precedent of dismissing tradition and grinding it into the ground with his boot heel. So, why should the Dems not do the same when it comes to keeping the option of packing the court on the table? Ya can’t have it bother ways. If you’re willing to throw away tradition and the established norms…then don’t be surprised when the other side does the same thing. At least the Dems are showing some balls…something everyone accuses them of never doing. Mud wrestling!!!!! Lol
Well that’s one way to go about it
Another way is to actually pass laws that don’t give judges any wiggle room
If the dems flip the senate, the senate floor is going to open up like flood gates
So much stuff is waiting for a vote
“But, this President has already set the precedent of dismissing tradition and grinding it into the ground with his boot heel.”
Really… tradition? Like what?
Just so you know, I’d ask the same question if someone called Biden out about something I thought was questionable.
This country is in a fucked up Hatfield/McCoy type situation.
You say damage done, we say wrongs righted.
Piggy,
I’m not saying I support it or like it. I’m just saying I get why the Dems feel okay about holding it over their heads a little and are playing a little hardball. After they suffered thru Obama being shut down, Trump then appointing hundreds of judges and then the Republicans push thru a SC justice, my guess is they have no problem with not taking it off the table. Whether or not they’d follow thru is a whole other issue. I’m not convinced they would but why not let it hang out there? And, lifetime appointments are just ridiculous and antiquated, to me.
I’m with you on that
Did the Obama administration nominate judges for those 200 vacancies? Asking. Don’t recall that hey did.
Yes
Actually McConnel was caught bragging about stopping the filling of those vacancies

Piggy,
Do you think a major change in our laws could be done? It seems like that would be a major undertaking. Is it even doable? Plus, this Country can’t even develop adequate universal health care like about 30-40 other Countries have done, I think…..because the special interest groups won’t let it happen and pay our politicians to make sure it never happens. I don’t see how we could revamp our laws in any meaningful or comprehensive way.
Don’t you understand how expensive it is for the govt to do anything? There’s so much bureaucracy, that it costs at least double, and that’s before the corruption comes into play from both sides.
Universal health sucks everywhere it’s been put in, and taxes on the middle class would go through the roof, and then some once the illegals get covered, well they’re already covered, so…
If football is a game of inches, why doesn’t anyone challenge the ball placement manipulation?
It happens in 2 places, by the side judge spotting the ball and by the center.
In the first half the Rams challenged a catch that was marked a first down. The call was overturned, but it clearly showed the ball should’ve been spotted with the back of the ball on the mark 1 yard short. It was actually spotted a ball length short.
The center then moves the ball forward past the first down marker, but a false start nullified it all. The point was between the bad ref spot, then the center moving the ball, the Bears actually gained 2/3 of a yard and what would’ve been a first down without gaining anything.
Both of these happen all the time.
Between the cheats center moving the ball forward constantly and the ref spotting the ball in their favor on Sunday, they only needed 8.5 yards on average for a first down, and they still couldn’t move the ball.
Tim,
Many ways. He withheld funds that had been approved without even notifying the proper channels or giving a reason for it. In fact, he broke the law to do it, but nobody cares about that. He refused to release his taxes. He refused to cooperate with an impeachment proceeding and, in fact, did everything he could to subvert it. He is right now forcing a SC justice thru when his party refused to allow Obama to do it with about 8 months left. He has used the AG to further his own personal and political agenda. Stuff other Presidents haven’t done. There are plenty others.
So politics! 😉
Withheld funds, right. Those same funds that the Ukraines didn’t know were being withheld.
Really, the fake impeachment based on law being broken, but Biden admits on tape of doing a quid pro quo and nothing happens.
There’s no law that says he has to show his taxes and I wouldn’t either, if I were him, because they’d make up so much fake shit about it like they do with everything.
The SC pushed through quick, but when the Senate and president are of the same party it goes thru in an election year, and not when not.
Used the AG, give me a break! Someone has to hold these criminals on the left accountable, the media won’t. The SOS was given the Hunter Biden Ukraine story when Obama was president they swept it under the rug. The AG under him and Comey didn’t charge hilllary for her email scandal or what she was doing selling influence.
The Rams look good tonight. I look forward to seeing our team match up against them on Sunday. 🙂
Phish,
It’s really no different than packing the SC, so I’m not sure why Republican supporters have a problem with the Dems doing what Trump has already done. We’ve become a system where the bully wins now, so let the shit fly.
Tim,
The question was about traditions or how Presidents have acted for Centuries. It may not be law or required, but it’s tradition. Trump has thrown those all away, so the Dems probably feel they can too….such as packing the Court. There is no reason either side, when in control, couldn’t do it….except for tradition. Trump says fuck tradition any time it doesn’t favor him. That was the point.

*****
I don’t think M4A is going to pass anytime soon
I think a public option might happen
It’s. It exactly an overhaul
But I think it’s gets the US to about 97% coverage as opposed to where we are which is like 90%
A lot of the people running right now are making health care a major part of their platform
So special interest groups aside, if you run in that – you better at least try to deliver if you win
All I’m saying is that if Trump can thumb his nose at tradition and how things are typically done whenever it suits him….right or wrong….don’t get your panties in a wad when the Dems do it. We get what we deserve…and these are the politicians we have.
Piggy,
Thanks for that input, but I was wondering about our set of laws, in general. You suggested passing laws that aren’t ambiguous so judges don’t have as much to interpret or read into things. Do you think that is possible in any meaningful way?
Specifically instead of depending on roe v wade to not be overturned
Create a “right to privacy” by federal law
Even a constituional amendment (that’s an uphill climb)
Roe v wade reads like a pathway to being codified
Instead it ended up being the most controversial case in our history
It’s almost 50 years old now
I’m specifIcally talking about federal protections for the rights in roe v wade, or the right to marriage (gay marriage) or the right to birth control (griswold)
Federal legislation on very specific issues instead of hoping the 14th amendment and 5th are Interpreted to preserve these cases
A Good example is the civil rights act of 1964
Prior to that act, a lot of people looked to the 14th amendment and it’s interpretation to protect from racial discrimination
But the civil right acts makes a lot of discrimination illegal even if the 14th amendment does not
You don’t need to lean on roe v wade if there a a federal protection for a “right to privacy”
It doesn’t matter how the scouts feels about it
What packing the court comes down to is using it as a political weapon. The left SC judges already go against what they were sworn in to do, uphold the Constitution.
Curious, why do you guys back a party that wants to raise your taxes to over 50%?
If the answer is they’re only going to do it for those that make over 400K, that’s a lie Biden tells.
He’s literally has no policies that raise taxes other than those making 400k +
Sometimes I wonder if you guys know anything about the guy you are running against. He’s not a socialist. He doesn’t support Medicare for all, he’s actually not very popular among the left
He wants to end the tax cuts which ends up literally raising my taxes.
Oh come on ….that’s silly
The average American received less than $700 from those tax cuts while the top 1% received $50,000
We can figure out another way to get Americans the value of that $700….lol
I mean,it’s accurate
But when you spell it out, it’s not exactly the “raising your taxes” it implies it is
Certainly not raising anyone’s taxes by 50%
You’re just throwing numbers against the wall, $1800 is what the average middle class person is what Biden would be eliminating.
In the dem primary debate everyone raised their hand, when asked about wanting Medicare for all. Biden also said in the recent debate he wants Biden care, which would have a public option and it would phase out private insurance. Biden won’t last 2 years, Kamala is far left.
I won’t insult your intelligence, I know you know where the corrupt joe stands on everything, like gun control…
That Medicare for all will increase the taxes over 50%. Joe says, the same lie Obama told, if you want to keep your dr…
I’m not throwing numbers out there. Here’s where I got it from
https://americansfortaxfairness.org/promise-will-middle-class-tax-cut/
Even if it’s 1800 that’s not 50% of my taxes
He doesnt support m4a
He never has (that’s not what they raise their hands about)
Most of the democratic debates were him and Bernie Sanders disagreeing on this and it’s not subtle that they are both very different on this
And it won’t raise your taxes by 50% anyway
The public option doesn’t phase out private insurance either
I remember when people told me that the aca would raise my taxes by 50% and kill private insurance and that never happened…we were supposed to get death panels too…lol
I prefer m4a to the public option anyway
So none of these arguments work on me anyway
But I swear, you guys just don’t know who you are running against
Not raising taxes 50%, raising your margin rate to over 50%. Maybe they won’t, but are you willing to take the chance of where they’re leading us, and that surely is over 50%.
Obama care was passed to fail, when hilllary got in she was supposed to be the savior that fixed ACA and put thru Medicare for all. Now the party is run by the radical side.
Maybe you’re right we don’t know who we’re running against. It sure would be nice, if he didn’t play both sides of every policy.
I kid, I know exactly who Biden is, but he’s not even close to the biggest threat, its everyone else that’s puppeting him, and he likely won’t go 4 years, so Kamala will be executive orderng us to death radically.
Okay… we agree on some things and not on others. As far as politicians go and Trump is one now, I don’t hold them in high regard.
I’m more interested in Dolphins/Rams Sunday with Tua’s first start. 🙂
steve,
I can save you some time. I don’t care what happened with Biden and the Russians. I haven’t seen a shred of evidence that Biden did anything to put this nation at risk or harm us to benefit himself in any way. Did he try to use his political connections to make money for his family? That’s quite possible, but I haven’t seen any proof of that either. None of these allegations of wrongdoing by Trump have been substantiated by any credible source.
***
But even if he did, how does that make him any different than every single other politician alive? Are you suggesting he’s the only politician making money off of his political status and connections? If someone has proof he did something to harm the Country to benefit himself, let me know, and I would certainly change my mind.
Steve: re ball placement .. Over the last few years I am very surprised that with all the tech in the world that they have not figured out how to put a chip in the ball that would not disrupt its integrity , yet would allow for “true “ tracking .. between a chip in the ball and some sort of grid on the sidelines I think would be a great add on …
In the Ukraine there’s the video where he says he did a quid pro quo and bragged about it.
In China the billion that went to hunters company he had no experience in.
The evidence for other corruption is on the hard drive, that the FBI covered up. His business partner was a witness to the corruption. If all of this wasn’t real why don’t they deny it? Why did hunters lawyer ask for the hard drive back. What was hunter doing in China anyways, if it wasn’t to deal with the chinese?
There’s no evidence on Trump, but you believe that and overwhelming evidence against the bidens, but you don’t believe it.
Why do the dems always try to throw out there a source that won’t come forward? Because it’s a lie.
Wrong spot, one above.
The chip in the ball can be done, but they like the control of manipulating the game. It’s why they got rid of PI review.
Geez, Hekker is amazing. A 63 yd punt with no return to pin the Bears inside the 10? Are you kidding me?
That was crazy good.
If Tua throws anything like what adolescences just threw I’ll be on board drafting another QB in 2021
Kinda reminded me of Bad FITZ. Not good Fitz. There is two of him
Rams are going to knock us down to 3rd in the league in Opponents PPG.
Rooting for a late Bears TD, that’ll keep us in 2nd.
Actually, no it won’t. Darn.
If we can keep Donald off Tua , and win the TO counts …
🇨🇦24-20 🐬
🇨🇦24-20 🐬
🐷 20-14 🐬
🇨🇦24-20 🐬
🐷 20-14 🐬
🦍 22-19 🐬
It’s not the price is right dude
Oh shyte, did I enter the ‘Let’s Make a Deal’ lot by mistake?
Rams have to travel across the country on a short week, we’re off of a bye, but are starting a rookie QB. We should win this game with Fitz, but with it being Tua’s first game no telling.
Just realized we are at home
I thought it was the other way around
So 37-0 🐬. ??

________________________________________________
Sorry to say this Randy I like you as a poster around here but this has to be the most dumbest leftist socialist post. i have seen.
if you think he used his vice presidency for personal gain and seems like you think that’s OK?
not only is it not OK it’s what they tried to impeach Trump on and had there been evidence like they have on Biden they would have gotten away with it.
not to mention how you were appalled at how they were not able to impeach trump over that same issue yet you are very willing to excuse biden, it is very obvious that is very hypocritical and hard left wing socialist bias.
i guess if anything serves your purpose it’s OK, and if it doesn’t it’s not.
you don’t seem to be worried about what’s right and what’s wrong.
your views may take your freedom from you one day.
if Biden used his political status for personal gain he should go to jail.
i’m most certain he did and there seems to be proof of it
He should go to prison for treason, for what he allowed China to get away with, but then you could say the same thing for every other WH before him going back to Carter.
another thing about the fires in calif,
i heard years ago that those fires are part of natures way to clear the land, fire is natures cleanser.
now with the advances in mankind how they can attack these fires from the sky and put them out, what happens is they leave unburned brush behind.
over years and years of putting out fires leaving this brush, it builds up and the fires get incredibly bad.
that;s the reason for the fires not climate change as the left would have you to believe
^
And that shit is blowing over here. I should sue CA for the dirty air.
If we get rid of fossil fuels like Biden said, the rest of the country would have the weeks of no power like CA.
