That was a man play!

His fate was set by midterms. What other presidents had more disastrous first halves of their first terms than Biden? Everything he touched went to shit instantly. There were 100 instances where he was completely and obviously unaware of what was going on. He read from the teleprompter what his handlers were telling him to say. And in the rare moments he had to speak from the cuff, he said some pretty old smush brain stuff.

If I would budge from a hard line stance, I will rephrase my statement that Biden was the worst President in history. He was the most brain dead President in history and the most illegitimate President in history and the worst President in your lifetime and was one of the Worst Presidents in history. A corrupt, lying, child groping, total piece of shit.

How could anyone with at least a room temp IQ have watched that Trump Biden debate in June and their take away is to ask if Biden’s mental deterioration has been exaggerated?
To have watched that train wreck and be reminded that this is the POTUS is to have experienced one of the most horrifying events of our lifetimes

And he divided the country like never before with his demonization of half the population.
His open borders that leave us more vulnerable than ever before to a terrorist attack.
Hundreds of thousands dead to fentanyl and thousands of kids sex trafficked all due to his unraveling of Trump and Obama era policies to protect this nation from criminals. His cozying up to Iran and China.
His capitulation to Putin, leaving the most blood and carnage in Europe since Ww2

An epic fail

P.S. Where are all the charging stations that were paid for years ago?

Used to go to the library and read an entire Hardy Boys book on a weekend. They were from Bayport, as was I. the books were Conn; I was from Bayport, New York. My sister read the Nancy Drews and we would switch. I think they were written by the same groups of people.

I think they were too. I was the same way I would read a book in a day or two. I didn't realized some were published in 1927. Just looked it up

Had a uncle that was a principal he used to give us books to read growing up during Summers. I read several Hardy boys mystery books must have been around 1970.

Watching the old Hardy Boys tv show from 78. Takes me back to my childhood. Valerie Bertinelli is the guest star. Man she was cute. Also have the original Battlestar Galactica for the full Sunday ABC line up. I like collecting seasons of old tv shows a pawn shop has them super cheap. I have Charlies Angels and Three's Company and Happy Days and Mork and Mindy.

Happy New Year ladies and gentle men. This forum deserves a better class of poster and I'm gonna give it to you. Just remember I'm not a monster I'm just ahead of the curve. There are Coor's, there is Chinese food, and here we go...
1. Schutt with his first and only basket of the game. I'm sorry son I can't remember your first name. It's Jaden, Jaren, Jordan or some J name that translates to one dimensional white boy. Could be the next Alex O'Connell.
2. I like this Cooper of the last 2 or 3 games. He is starting to look dominant. Hitting the 3. We need this Cooper to cut the nets down. No pressure, buddy. he is scoring at will on these guys.
3. Don't look know, but Gillis is emerging like Godzilla out of Tokyo Bay. Rebound and put back, a few 3's 10 points. 2 straight stellar games. This is the Big 10 6th man of the year.
4. Proctor with 1, 2 to the 3 dunks. Man is full on dog. He cuts like a knife, but if feels so nice. Na na na.
5. Evans needs to start looking for his shot more. He jacks up shots like the ball is on fire. But he makes them, one of our best shooters so keep shooting.
6. This does not show up on the box score but Gillis REALLY bodies up on dudes. He's Theo John 2.0. You need those dudes.
7. Sion with a man sized rebound and putback. Love that we are pushing VT around.
8. Kon with the nice step back jumper at the half. Kon just knows how to play and understands angles. He's Luke Kennard without fixing his hair every 8 seconds. Maybe that's why he cut it.
9. Proctor with another dunk in traffic! We need Dickie V. Oh my God are you serious?
10. Foster in the game late. Foster: Australian for "waaaay behind Sion and Evans in the lineup." We need you back buddy.
10B: Mal with a nice game. Some blocks, some dunks. That's what we need from him.
Really impressed with this game. I get VT is not good but we just dominated them. Duke is starting to look like Duke and the chickens are coming home to roost. The tough early schedule has really helped us. Good job Jon, squad and Happy New Year.

I just want to say… my favorite play of the game was Evans assisting on Mason’s 3 with about a minute and a half left.

The two of them are arguably competing for the same minutes. There has been a pretty direct correlation between more minutes for one and fewer minutes for the other.

It’s a play that reminds me that the Brotherhood is strong and that despite individual aspirations, the team goals come first.

That was a good play and Evans made a good play to get by his man and a selfish player would have shot a floater

I really can’t take you seriously when you claim — before the midterms in President Biden’s only term — that he is by far the worst President in US history, and then claim that it has been under-exaggerated how bad he was… and that Harris is even worse.

At no point have I suggested he was all there. Your claim has been that he not only wasn’t running anything, but that he also wasn’t even aware of what was happening.

When that’s the hard line you won’t budge from, why would I bother engaging with your questions at all? You’re not interested in discussion; you want complete capitulation.

Defense is definitely really good this year.

Click to expand...

Yeah, and to me, that’s possibly the most impressive thing. I mean, all but 2 guys in the rotation are brand new to Duke, and while on offense an individual can shine regardless, defense really has to be more cohesive. For Coach Scheyer to have gotten such a consistent, high level from the D with the inexperience (together) of our roster is really impressive.

It's not about the subjectivity of how good or bad the economy has been. It's about them deliberately lying in order to mislead the American people to influence elections.

He's been historically bad. Despite the false narratives being perpetrated.

No. He has been mentally degraded since before the 2020 election. If anything, it was under exaggerated. And yes, she was even less competent than the dementia riddened puppet.

Are you willing to concede that Biden hasn't been the one running the country?

There are metrics by which the economy is doing great. They're just not the metrics that have anything to do with how most of us live. It's not a lie then. It's arguably worse.

I've defended him against the allegation that he's the worst President in the history of the country by far, which is what you were calling him well before the midterms. I stand by it.

Are you willing to concede that you have exaggerated how bad off he is mentally? Do you believe the only person less competent than him is VP Harris?

My top 10 won't be kind to Schutt. 3 points, 0 assists.

Coach Scheyer did A Great Job Managing this game. Also, loved the passion he showed as a result of Duke’s Excellent Defensive Plays in the 1st half!

Continue to Grow Duke!

Weird its 330 here and I'm at the store. Is the game over? Ill catch the highlights

Big time win!

Harris with the foul to allow VT to cover the spread smh.

Coach Scheyer played 11 guys today. Keep it up Coach!!!

I will have an epic new years eve top 10 later. Coors may or may not be involved.

He may be pulling the Tony Bennett maneuver. Quitting at a time when one of his assistants is the only interim option

Click to expand...

This. Why not provide YOUR guys an opportunity? Assistant coaches get it done, could be a Dabo situation. I am sure the players don’t mind playing for the current assistants.

Maybe start Evans to see if we can get a spark from the beginning?
