re: Why is WW1 Germany overshadowed by WW2 Germany
Posted by SoDakHawk on 4/14/26 at 12:01 pm to TheRealTigerHorn
Don't know why this just popped into my head, I remember reading that the UK just recently finished paying off their war debt they owed the USA from WW2.
Did the USSR ever repay us for everything we gave them to support their war effort? I assume not since the Cold War settled in.

Yep. First timers should jump on the Sabres wagon. Should be a ride.
NCAA is a joke. Like any Iowa fan cares what they say. The games didn't happen? Yeah, sure.
I remember the Internet back in 1994 at the computer lab in college. Maybe I just lacked vision, obviously, but I and many of my friends didn't think much about the internet revolutionizing the future.
First off, it was freaking slow back then, real slow. Who had time to sit there all day while something uploaded?
Secondly, websites like Yahoo! were free. I couldn't wrap my head around a company that just gives away it's services as being something that would last.
Interesting to look back on and see how wrong I was. Especially about not buying Amazon stock. Literally, was going to buy Amazon in my brokerage account but instead bought some other stock that turned out to go to penny stock status and no longer exists.

WW1 Museum in Kansas City is a must visit for anybody interested in this topic. Plan to spend an entire day there, possibly two. I spent 6 hours there and felt I just scratched the surface. Also, be prepared to feel totally depressed for a couple of days and a few restless nights sleeping. It's an extremely somber place if you get into it and let the enormity and gravity seep in.
I would agree that the world might be a better place if the USA had stayed out of WW1 and Germany would have "won" or at least sued for peace in a stalemate. The Treaty of Versailles would have never happened and set the stage for Hitler and WW2.
Wonder what that timeline looks like.

I will say, I was very impressed with Oba's promo last night. He nailed it.
The best match of WM is going to be Seth v Gunther. Too bad they couldn't go back and have time to lay more of a foundation for that one.
I'm looking forward to the undercards more than the Main Events. Trick Williams whipping Sami's arse should be fun. Don't mess that up HHH.

My parents lived through JFK & RFK assassinations and my dad getting sent off to Vietnam. Those were some truly dark times. We recovered after rough decade in the 70s (debatable because culturally the 70s were pretty awesome, financially, not so much) and we got back to peak America on the 80s and 90s.
We can recover from 9/11, if we choose, and the late 2020s and the next 20 years can become peak again.

1984-1985 was peak America. Springsteen, MJ, Madonna, Prince...Ozzy, Motley Crue, Iron Maiden, early Metallica. Movies like Back to the Future, Indiana Jones, and Goonies. 1984 Olympics, a unified country where politics had not consumed the minds of the whackos.
Born in 1973, graduated 1991 HS and 1995 college. These times are really messed up, but the good news is I am starting to feel the pushback and rejection of the PC/cancel culture. A rejection by the youth of "Karens" and over bearing adults. Young people really interested in how life was for their parents and wanting to return to what things were like in the 80s and 90s.
I have some faith that these kids can do it if we help them and don't screw things up.

16 hours straight, gas and go only, from West Texas to South Dakota. Started the trip it was 90 degrees. I ended the trip driving into a blizzard.
Also have done 12 hours straight to Detroit, one time in a full on Midwest blizzard the entire way. That sucked major balls.
Now, I don't like going over 8-10 hours, but will do it if I have to.

That was a damn good shot. Been all over my kids I coach that loooove to go bar down but end up clanging it off the glass that a shot just above the pad when the goalie goes down in the butterfly is a great shot.

I knew that was going to happen. Michigan had been carrying the play, but the longer this went on, I just said to myself, Denver is going to get a shot off and win this.

To be fair, stick hit the hands on a scoring opportunity. Yeah, I wouldn't have called it.
Nobody wants a penalty to decide this game.

I thought that dude's finger was cut off. Just a lot of blood.

Wow. After everything we've seen in this OT they called THAT penalty? Scoring chance, I suppose.

DU goal. This one might be headed to OT.

Hockey at schools like North Dakota, Minnesota, Michigan, pretty much all the Big Ten schools including Notre Dame, several Northeast schools like Boston College and Boston U, maybe I should just say the big time hockey schools, like the top 25 or so. Hockey is bigger than SEC baseball.
Don't believe me? Look up Ralph Engelstad Arena in NoDak, Compton Arena at Notre Dame, Mariucci Arena at Minnesota. Heck, pull up the arenas Nebraska -Omaha or even Augustana (SD) play in. Way more money put into those than your baseball stadiums.

Anybody watching on Prime? Wondering how it is, or if it's even different.
I'm watching Masters App Featured Groups feed.

That "patron" will probably spend the rest of the Masters watching it from the local Hooters now.

Ok, I'm watching the ESPN app, featured group Bryson and Rory. I had on the Masters App earlier, holes 4,5,6.
What's the best way to follow this morning? Which app and which feed?
Thanks!
