    ^Eh. That reminds me of the claim that Jordan was so great because he was 6-0 in the Finals. I'd rather be 6-1 or 6-4 if it meant I got there that many more times. 25 years ago people were arguing about whether Duke belonged in the top tier on the basis of K's 20+ years at the time. Even...

    Evangelicals drive the conservative talking points around gender identity. You're parroting them whether you hear it directly from them or not. You do not listen to medical experts, instead defaulting to a caveman-like simplicity on gender.

    "Loopy," says the guy who gets his opinions spoonfed to him from anti-science religious hypocrites, 🤣

    Uh, I wouldn't dare. I get banned for that language. That's why I ML it instead. Therapy as a punchline? Cool, bruh. What good do the dissertations do when I'm talking to anti-intellectual cowards still staring at their dinner plates refusing to eat their vegetables?

    Fine. One example: "...encouraging unhealthy and ungodly treatment for mental illnesses is not empathy." You're not a doctor of any kind. You don't know a MLing thing about this but you parrot right-wing, unscientific, faith-based crap. And it's not worth engaging with you on it. You're...

    I hate that it was UConn, but I like everything about their program other than the front of their jerseys. Hurley is a great coach. They play very unselfishly and smart. They play suffocating defense. They have a really advanced offense. They have a claim to being very high on the list of...

    Oh, yeah. You. I started to copy & paste EVERYTHING you posted on the last page, but then deleted it b/c what's the point? You're a bad faith actor here. You're clearly drunk off Mark Robinson suppositories at this point.

    @ LetsGoDuke.83, I see you're still using the most extreme language and alarming rumors to demonize the left while providing no proof whatsoever.

    All you see? It sounds like you should diversify your media consumption. If all you consume is right-wing media, they exploit LGBTQ+ stuff for outrage, to make you fear that they're taking over. On the bold, and more importantly, there could be no Christianity without Easter. It strikes me as...

    Official game day thread Duke vs NC St round 3 ELITE EIGHT ADDITION

    Today will be a great day regardless. It's Easter, and my oldest kid's 23rd birthday. She was born right around the time Duke's FF game against Maryland began. In some order, the final score will include the digits 9, 7, 6, & 4. In our 2 match-ups so far this season, the team w/ the better...

    Nah, winner of Clemson-Alabama plays UConn. We would play the Purdue-Tennessee winner.

    Official game day thread- Duke vs Houston SWEET 16

    Y'all... there's a pretty significant difference between losing the Big 12 PoY DURING the game and losing an important role player long enough ago to have adjusted some. Scoreboard. Let's just stick with that.

    Official game day thread- Duke vs Houston SWEET 16

    Don't know if it was mentioned in-game before page 8, but this is our first tourney win as a lower/worse seed since we beat Purdue in 1994! That first timeout was brilliant. We got tough in a hurry. Major props to Ryan Young for spearheading that. While the refs swallowed their whistles, I...

    It's really appropriate that KD subsequently brings up the Black Panthers. They did NOT advocate for violence. They advocated for self-defense, including arming themselves. (It's the only time in its history that the NRA has advocated for stricter gun laws.) The story others tell of the BPP is...

    I hear that. It's also really easy to look more peaceful from a position of power. Israel has a lot more of what they want than the Palestinians do. I'd liken it to any civil rights struggle we've seen in the U.S. in that the disadvantaged group is always the one who appears to be instigating...

    I remember as an undergrad in the first half of the '90s watching a news program interviewing Israelis & Palestinians where both sides were hardcore in favor of eliminating the other side. Much more recently, there's an Anthony Bourdain episode of Parts Unknown where both sides are represented...

    Aww, and we were getting along so well. I don't pretend to have a solution & it sounds like you don't see a need for one.

    With one kid in college and another recently graduated, I can concur about the absolutism & naivety of college kids on this issue. Unfortunately, it doesn't end at that age, either. I've been very disappointed at the absolutism I see in much older leftists with whom I usually agree. We can both...
