I guess at least we get to see first hand how crazy people convince themselves they're aren't insane.
hitler was a left wingerRacist Right wingers that defend white killer cops are a cancer in America and they're also going to end up on the wrong side of history. Just like Hitler and his right wing Nazi Party. They were also cancer's. No Monday morning quarterbacking here. I call it like I see it.

Great thread, we need more of these.This forum starts to repair relationships. It's been a awful year regardless of what you believe in, what you do for a living, who you pray to, vote for, who you love and who you don't... Everyone's life has been affected in some way.
I had a mini feud with someone on this very forum that I respect very much and I believe vice versa and it got heated for no reason that makes any sense. We were able to talk through it via dm. So let's all attempt to find what we can agree on. I'll start.

Probably true. I still can't believe a guy pursued a woman for 7 years without actually meeting her. He made numerous trips to the Ukraine and she kept blowing him off (no not THAT way). Although it was kind of crazy she did end up showing up, finally. At least for the camera.
I have to admit, while there are some supposed 50 something women who probably at least are mid 60s, there's some decent eye candy from both South America and Russia and the Ukraine. That helps keep me watching.
Not familar with Mikeras but the other 2 are good people.my favorite handicappers- mikeras, paul stone, paul bovi
I haven't been in about 16 months now so I'm itching really bad at this point. It's such a unique culture that I think people originally from there miss it more in general than people from other places miss their hometown. I would easily be 50 lbs heavier if I lived there so at least there is that. Sidenote: The Wire was by far the best tv show of all time imo.I go every feb to visit a poker friend who retired at 30 to live in Treme. Didn't go this year because NBA work was more extensive.. really regretting it currently.
Have flirted with renting a home for a couple months at a time in somewhere like Metairie or Lake Charles a million times. It's so cheap but I'm afraid I'd gain 100 pounds in 6 months and die of a heart attack.
Where did I grow up - Rural NW Ohio. Hoops on the side of barns type of setting.
First album ever purchased with my own money- Rumors Fleetwood Mac
Favorite exercise or activity to stay in shape- Mix of running and weights
Thing you miss the most since this all began - Sports wise March Madness. Life wise freedom of choice
Favorite Beverage per season- Summer - Ice cold beer winter - Irish Coffee
I can recommend Josh Cab for a red.Craziest 90 day couple? Was Larry F the best catcher of the football ever at Pitt?
If anyone does not know what I'm referring to Google or youtube best Larry Fitzgerald Pittsburgh catches. He has to have been the best IMO.
White wine or red? Recommend a bottle t to everyone that's $20 or less.

Closest big city is Toledo. Been going there since I was a young kid. Wasn’t a bad town back in the day. But it’s basically Detroit Jr. As blue collar jobs went away, it became progressively worse.I grew up in a rural area as well. What was the closest city and how old were you when you began going there regularly?
Right on Time was a great album. They never got as much mainstream publicity as they should have.
Oh I've been. Wondering if there inside story here or a personal reason.Mt. Rushmore is there. Badlands not far. A bunch of touristy shit like caves with stalactites and stalagmites.
Deadwood and Lead not a far drive either.
Do you follow the rockets or only Buckeyes?Closest big city is Toledo. Been going there since I was a young kid. Wasn’t a bad town back in the day. But it’s basically Detroit Jr. As blue collar jobs went away, it became progressively worse.

Just dancing around like a true psychopath lol.First became acquainted with Brothers Johnson when Quentin Tarantino used Strawberry Letter 23 in one of the first scenes of Jackie Brown
Tarantino is a master of effectively utilizing music for cinematic effect. Is there anyone out there who doesn't think of Reservoir Dogs and the razor blade when they hear Stuck in the middle by Steelers Wheel?
Toledo had to be a heck of a city in the 60's when the auto industry was really humming. Not much outside of Toledo except for Bowling Green, the country part of Toledo.Closest big city is Toledo.

Big fan. I think I liked Deadwood,The Sapranos and maybe even OZ more but breaking bad was really fucking good.Loved the wire as well. What are your thoughts on Breaking Bad?
