Hearing rumors that CC might be headed to Europe. Apparently, some big money is being offered. That would be so awesome if the haters run her off and she makes bank while the Wnba crashes even further. They deserve it after the last year.
Would be epic. The sugar high the WNBA is experiencing would end with a quickness. Whether they like it or not, Clark is the face of the WNBA now, at least in terms of fan interest.
 
The WNBA really is primed to fall, and fall hard. The whole damn league was built on the coattails of the NBA, and never really could sustain itself on its own. It probably consists of 95% lesbian and/or black women (men? *cough* Brittany Griner *cough*). Yes I made up that statistic, but it’s probably not far off. And they never generated any legitimate traction or fan interest.

Then here comes lily white, heterosexual, Caitlin Clark and she takes over the league, instantly. They could not STAND it. They tried to bully and sucker punch her. And she just kept whipping their asses. She’s their golden goose, and they DESPISE her because she doesn’t fit the narrative, as is evidenced by that commercial.

If they throw big money at her to play in Europe, she ought to drive the stake through the WNBA’s heart and send them back to their empty stadiums.

Saw an interview with a woman who played 2 years in the league and then got pregnant. She said when she came back she was shunned by everyone. People don't realize how militant some lesbians are.
 
Always totally unprepared. He is a reactive individual. Never proactive.
Good td but it felt like Stoops was trying to punt and pen Vandy on the goal line instead of scoring. He's just so averse to offense that it rubs off on the team. Someone close to the program needs to let him know it's a problem and he needs to fix it or just move on and coach div 2.

R’s re-taking Senate should be a given.

The focus needs to be on taking AZ, OH, and PA, to supplement the likely flips in MT and WV.


The ‘26 map is a defensive map for both parties, with limited opportunities for flips (GA and ME being the most likely for both parties).

If the Rs can get this to 53-54, then Trump definitely has the Senate for 4 years, and having a possibility to retain control longer term with a strong Presidential candidate at the top of the ticket in ‘28.

With how red Ohio has become, that Brown-held seat presents the opportunity for a generational seat flip.

Not only can they get Brown out, but Moreno likely keeps that seat for 18-24 years.

Failure to flip that seat with Trump at the top of the ticket is a huge wasted opportunity.
Have seen/heard some polls where Moreno is ahead. I wonder if the internals may be even more because a new commercial (or two) have dropped by Brown this weekend. Moreno is running a combo of 'positive pro-Moreno' commercials and 'anti-Brown' ones. The anti are hitting hard on how Brown has backed/voted for this trans crap, illegals, etc. They must be having an effect because this weekend I'm seeing Brown commercials about how Moreno is 'lying' about him when it comes to the transgender, bio men in women's sports, etc.
If Moreno's commercials were not having an effect...Brown would just ignore them. Just by responding (which is a no-no in some political circles) speaks volumes.

Moreno is a successful businessman from the Cleveland area which has always been the state's Dem/lib stronghold. Moreno should be able to eat away some of that support which is a plus.

Baris is saying that Senate and House are running behind Trump nationally. He thinks 53 in Senate is likely but he said they should get 55 if they weren't VH type of pubs.

Trump should win the state by 10, which should be more than enough cushion to pull Moreno across the finish line.

Baris was saying the panic in Wisc was coming from the Senate candidate. She is apparently pissed that Kamala is dragging her down and she doesn't want her political future to be destroyed so she's letting people know that Kamala is losing her votes.

Baldwin was running national ads during Brewers playoff games on ESPN. That’s now concerned she is.


Similar situation may be unfolding in Michigan.

It’s amazing how you can get these people to come out of the woodwork to vote for Trump, but can’t get enough votes for the Senate and House candidates.

However, a lot of this will be due to “Independents” who will split ticket.

Noticed on the Texas/Oklahoma game today ads against Cruz's opponent (don't remember the name) in Texas.
Guaranteed large number of eyes watching it in the Lone Star State.

Allred.

Former Dallas Cowboy apparently

I’m really worried Cruz is going to blow that seat in 6 years.

I wish Trump would add him to his cabinet or to SCOTUS, and they get someone likable in that seat.

Baris was talking about this. Lake in Arizona is running behind Trump because she isn't hitting a few issues like Trump. He's reached out to her campaign and told them to hit a few issues hard and they told him to piss off. Same in PA... Baris told the pubs what undecided voters were looking for and they ignore him. If you wonder how thats possible... we have VH in this thread telling us how he'd run a campaign and lose by 5 points.
 
How we lost is what pisses me off. If we came to play and went punch for punch with Vandy and still lost...sucks but is what it is. Instead we shit our pants all game long in pretty much every single way possible.
Losses to Vandy and USC at home. Who predicted that preseason? May be a struggle to make a bowl. Could come down to the UL game. Good gawd!

Lake is kind of an enigma. Good looking...polished....ex-TV anchor so she can deliver the lines....etc. You would think that she would be ahead, especially when you look at her opponent.
It's either what Baris was saying....or a number of people just don't think she's 'likeable'.

Quick story about that Marine veteran from the Vietnam War who spoke in the commercial. He is a retired Christian evangelist. He came to preach a revival at our church in New Mexico when I was a child. My dad was the church bus Director. The veteran, by the name of Tim Lee, was a pretty good wheelchair basketball player. He had just finished beating the pastor in basketball playing horse that week.

The pastor roped my dad into playing him and my dad beat him in one on one horse. My dad was in the Air Force at the time. That night Tim Lee preached a sermon and cracked a joke about the fact that, while the Marines were out dying for our country, the Air Force was playing basketball. We all had a good laugh about that. Tim Lee was an amazing preacher. Lost his legs when he stepped on a land mine in Vietnam. Found Christ because of it.
 
How we lost is what pisses me off. If we came to play and went punch for punch with Vandy and still lost...sucks but is what it is. Instead we shit our pants all game long in pretty much every single way possible.

that kind of performance, coming off a bye week, is axiomatic under Stoops IIRC.

We're on probation. Fire that fat f*** for cause, and move on.

She's always come across as pretty damn insufferable (to me anyway)
