AAU basketball has been around far, far longer than travel baseball.

The OP is right, NIL and portal rules have killed the Cinderella.

Israel is the worst ally.

They attacked the USS Liberty and blamed it on misidentification. bullshite.

Israel/Edomites hate Jesus “Jesus is boiling in excrement”. Iran posed no threat to the US.

That’s all propaganda by Israel.

frick Israel.

This is the way!

Israel has been an absolute terrible ally, and a financial drain on the US Tax Payer.

I don’t think people understand the scope of death and destruction that occurred in Japan.

Two atom bombs and the bombing of Tokyo killed 500,000 people. The lucky 160,000 died nearly instantly from the atom bombs. The rest either burned to death in Tokyo and radiation poisoning over the course of a year.

AIPAC in lobbying spending is 3.3 million, they dont even make the top 20 in spending. AIPAC spends approximately 100 million with their PAC in elections. It is dwarfed by many others: Act Blue 1.1 billion, WinRed 623 million, Biden victory fund and Trump Fund approximately 200 million each. And many others. Course we can throw in things like 400 million in zuckerbucks. Unfortunately for all you who think Jews control our govt.....they cant even control an election in their own backyard NYC. Now go worry about the real adversary, the one who has convinced you to hate jews........versus addressing those who have overthrown our govt through lawfare, unfair voting practices, and discrimination.

They don’t have to spend a lot of money, they are literally tied to 95% of elected federal officials. When you have that kind of influence you don’t need to spend loads of money.

No Harper to anchor the team as the veteran? He’s the only one that actually showed up and performed in the final.

The irony in this entire thread is that the only people upset about the name, the ranking or the fact that the loss didn’t look like an upset, seems to be LSU fans. The simple fact that the debate shifts to Flagship and whataboitism by Tiger fans truly shows the level of insecurity that exists in Baton Rouge.

Anti-semitism is Israel’s get out of jail card, their way of gas lighting people into being sympathetic to their cause.

The sooner the US distances themselves from Israel the better for the entire world.
