What a win for the Panthers!!!
My two sons and I were at the game and it was one of the best games I have ever seen (that wasn’t a playoff game). Hope they get on a roll.

I feel like a lot of teams will battle to get better seeds in the playoffs, but the Panthers don't care as much (like last year). They can win on the road and at home if their defense is locked in (like last year).
It helps make them more rested come playoff time.

re: Kilmeade: “Putin Was Limping, Lot Of Speculation About His Health”

I believe the thinking is why would you let him set the narrative? If Trump came out by himself, he could have set the narrative and put more pressure on Putin.
Now, on the other hand, maybe Trump knew what Putin was going to say (for the most part) and it knows it goes a long way in working to solve this problem.
Based on the past, I think you have to trust Trump on this.

So, Trump is paid for by Israel? It's not that everyone has said the same thing about Iran for the past few presidents, and he is the only one with the guts to do anything about it.
Ok.

That is different than we are at war with Iran.
It seems that Iran did a theatrical counter attack and now the US isn't looking to strike again. Will that change? Maybe if circumstances change. But as of now, we are not at war with Iran and our involvement was to do what no other nation was capable of doing.

I would only be at war with them if I tried to destroy them completely (not just bomb a few spots I thought were crucial to a nuclear weapon).
Have we dropped bombs on a country before and not been at war with them? (That would be a "yes". The last few presidents have done this as well.)
Will this escalate into a war? Maybe. Maybe not. But it is not a war at this moment (it's why Trump didn't need Congress' permission).
And by the way, Shreveport might improve with a bombing run.

Iran has been at war for 40+ years and are currently in a war with Is real. We have not been at war nor are we’re currently in a war with Iran.

They should Florida the 2 points they would have scored but the refs stopped the play. That was ridiculous.

Can anyone tell me where to find current wind speeds of a smaller location (I’m in Sebring)?
Not sure how accurate my weather app is (it’s showing 80+ mph).

The weatherman on one of the local Tampa stations just said that because the main rain storms are on the north side, the thought is it may move north toward those storms. Does anyone know if that’s a thing? Never heard that before.

All the local station (from Tampa and Sarasota) still show the eye hitting near Sarasota. Is there a new track that shows it hitting closer to Port Charlotte?

re: Trump Jr has a question that the media is too scared to ask

If he was taking groups over there (and that’s a big IF), he could have charged it to the group. I’ve taken groups of people overseas and my trip costs were part of each team members’ cost.
I’m not saying that’s what happened, just probably how they would explain it.
Still doesn’t mean the question shouldn’t be asked though.

I’m sure Israel did those things out of the blue and not in response to something. Don’t be so naive.
Israel treatment towards Palestinians vs Palestinians treatment towards Israelis is enormous. Israel allows Palestinians to live in Israel, hold political office, and even allowed for Palestinians living in Gaza to work in Israel. Israelis lives would be in danger if they go into Gaza.
re: Florida was consistently screwed by terrible refereeing

Tell me you didn’t watch the game without saying you didn’t watch the game.
Your take may work for most games but not this one. The Gators were in foul trouble and had key players sitting for big stretches of the game. Any thing close to a touch was a foul. This was one of the worst reffed games I’ve ever seen.
I actually think the bad reffing helps take pressure off Golden for not adjusting on defense. But the refs definitely had an affect on the outcome.

re: What Trump policies are better than Desantis policies?
Posted by shreveport_gator on 8/6/23 at 4:18 pm to RobbBobb
The surplus is without federal $ added. So if Florida had a $13 billion surplus, if you take out the $9 billion they still had a $4 billion surplus. Same for the other years as well. Maybe we just see the numbers differently.
It looks like each year their surplus was more than the fed gave them. Fed money accounts for about 33% of Florida’s budget which makes them the 34th most dependent state.

So Florida had a budget surplus every year even if you take all of the Fed money out. Got it.
And the reason states were taking that money is because the Fed was making it hard to function normally during Covid by pushing for shut downs.
I can see why returning the money sounds good but it wouldn’t have gone to lower the national debt. It would have gone to blue states or other projects.

What year did he get $27 billion from the fed? I’m sure he took the money but why did he take that money?
Florida had a $11 billion surplus in 2020, a $13 billion surplus in 2021, and a $20 billion surplus in 2022.
