re: MUH INTERNATIONAL LAW
Posted by Scoob on 1/3/26 at 5:33 pm to SallysHuman
quote:I think we can all answer that. Go look at the grudging remarks from various European countries; while they all make a point of saying "international law", they also state they felt Maduro was illegitimate.
Did Maduro break any “international laws”?
When you boil it down, we went in and apprehended a guy facing multiple US charges, who was acknowledged by everyone in the world (other than China, Cuba, Russia and Iran) as NOT the legitimate leader of that country.
1) that's legal, as I understand it
2) by holding power illegitimately, MADURO was breaking international law.
So the world can be shocked and act as disapproving, but can't really say anything else.
Looking at Spain's reaction, they saw him as illegitimate, but wanted the legal and peaceful transfer of power. That wasn't happening so they were just going to not do business with them, which does nothing to help the situation.

Regarding other world leaders' reactions... reading between the lines, i think most support it.
You have the opposition from China, Iran, Russia and their circles.
From Europe, there's a lot of carefully worded statements; talking about international law, but at the same time stating they did not accept Maduro as legitimate ruler of Venezuela.
So at the end of the day, they will say the US came in and apprehended someone illegitimate who was facing US charges.
Which is legal.

So Macron (French president) has come out and said the Venezuelan people should rejoice.
It's kind of hard to find, you get the impression everyone (including France) oppose what we did, if you search google.

No. That’s why I stopped watching college basketball.
players leaving doesn't bother me, but the rules changes to make it "more exciting" killed a lot of my interest.
With college basketball, I'm old enough to remember the no shot clock, no 3 pt shot era. And I liked that style of play a lot more. There was a lot more skill involved with getting a good shot, a lot more strategy in offenses. And defenses could still force the tempo with presses and traps.
With football, some of the crap in the NFL, especially with the kickoff and extra points, bugs me the same way. And with college, dicking around with the clock is doing the same thing.
The sport was perfectly fine, no reason to frick with it. Football is meant to have touchbacks at the 20, kicks where you could run fakes, onside kicks that could be surprises. Going out of bounds stops the clock, and in college getting the first down stops it. That's the way it was played for a very long time, teams did all sorts of things to make the most of that.
Changing from that annoys me far more than seeing a different set of guys on the field, as long as they're still wearing the jerseys I know and love.
re: Do you like cheering for a new team every year?
Posted by Scoob on 1/2/26 at 8:15 pm to homemadeshine
I cheer for LSU. I've seen a lot of guys come and go.
I kept rooting for LSU after Hilliard left, after Hodson, after Faulk, etc.
It's college. You don't see players stay long.
We just saw Nussmeier stay 5 years, and he was somebody lots of people wanted gone this year.

re: Trump: ‘If Iran shoots & kills peaceful protesters.. the US will come to their rescue’

I think this is definitely something we (the US) need to watch. It's going down with or without our help, at this point.
Just completely from an apolitical point of view (Left or Right), that country is about to implode. Go search about water shortages, they have run out of water for Tehran. The reservoirs are dry, there are sinkholes appearing from where the ground is collapsing due to that. They are rationing water, shutting off access at night.
Imagine a city of 10 million where they shut the water off daily. That coupled with the collapse of the economy, people are going to reach a point where going down from a bullet might be considered more desirable than slowly dying in your apartment trying to behave.

quote:Isn't half of Indiana's team out of the portal? I just googled it, there were 30 in 2024, and another 24 in 2025. That's not love of university, that's blatantly building a team from free agency (money).
It is the LSU culture to be all about the money and not team or university (ever since the NIL wars started) .
Again, look at Indiana. You can tell the players love the team and university

Dante Moore is only a sophmore
There is talk that he could be a top five pick if he enters the draft this season.
Let's not forget going into this season, the top projected QBs were Nussmeier, Klubnik, and Allar. Nussmeier would likely have gone high had he left last year, maybe higher than Shough did (2nd rd). At this point all three are probably going day 3.
TL,DR version- don't frick around if you can get drafted.

Scrolling freezes on embedded content

I have an S22 ultra. Using chrome.
Past few days, if I'm on a thread with embedded content (youtube etc), when I thumb scroll down, it freezes at that content and becomes unresponsive for about 3-5 seconds. Can't go down or back up. I have to shrink the browser to get past this, or wait

re: Alabama 3 @ Indiana 38 Final - ESPN

I just can't see this guy going #1.
He's just too odd a guy. That might work on a college team built around him, but it won't on an NFL team

Indiana doesn't look great. They do look focused and prepared.
Alabama looks like they don't know what to do. I dont like that offensive scheme, same as what LSU ran. No aggression on the o line, just standing up into pass blocks. Even on the runs.

Wasn't he down?
Ok he wasn't
Ok he wasn't
Alabama QB and offensive scheme is bad.
Deboer just doesn't know how to coach an Alabama type of team. They should be leaning on Indiana, firing off the ball, trying to beat them down for late in the game. Instead it's stand and react, on both sides of the game

Just run the fricking play

When will QBs learn to dive head first when going for the line to gain?

Top 4 seeds are now 0-6
thats not correct
Yeah it is.
Top 4 seeds get byes. No team that has had a bye has won yet. Thus, 0-6 so far.
You can argue that Boise and Arizona St didn't deserve to be top 4 seeds, but they were

Why is Alabama playing back so much? I really think they can push Indiana's line around, and force pressure on Mendoza. Would disrupt the run that way too.
But they're so passive, instead.

Indiana is well-coached, but it just looks like Bama has the bigger, better players.
