The invasion has been a disaster. NATO has expanded because of it. He's got conscripts and criminals getting slaughtered in the field. He's bringing out Cold War era tanks because he can't afford to lose anymore T-90s. He's having to buy missiles and components from China and NK. Their tactics are straight out of WW2 and his commanders have their jobs because they are Putin loyalists first and capable leaders second...........and don't know a flank from a fork.

Again, since when does Moscow dictate our foreign policy? Who are we to tell Ukraine they shouldn't fight for their freedom against a tyrannical murderer?

Kamala is the change candidate. For every dollar that I had in November 2020, I only have some change left.

So far the consequences have been some destruction in Ukraine, some but less destruction in Russia, and the constant humiliation of Putin’s military because they clearly cannot accomplish what they set out to do. And by the way, Putin thought he had Kyiv, but today Kyiv is Ukrainian, free, and a world class city led by Zelensky.

‘F’ Putin, that historically murderous, anti-democracy thug.

I cannot believe that there are Americans that don’t flat out celebrate Ukraine. BLAMING Ukraine or the US? That is ridiculous and disgusting. Ukraine has not taking subjection as a given, and they fight for the right to remain free, even when faced with potentially dire consequences. It’s f’ing awesome and inspirational. For people with a spine and a yearning to be free there is no other choice, and I’m damn glad the US Government is contributing to their cause.

Any American that admires, flatters, or compliments Putin is a pathetic loser who is an idiot and should be ashamed.

Any Russian who criticizes Putin risks imprisonment and death by their own government.

I don't have a clue so let's talk about me and then throw in a jab at the media in the back to get a crowd reaction so they won't realize I didn't answer the question.

College educated people are going to vote for this?

Ukraine/US initiated the process of joining NATO and that did cross a red line. What is wrong with you? Are you in denial?

You've posted that three times now.......and apparently you still haven't read the entire article.

Putin is old school KGB and USSR. He wants to reclaim the glory of mother Russia. He has tried to violently get the band back together since he took over.

The other reason Putin wants Ukraine back..........he's not crazy about a prosperous democracy with ties to the west on his border whether they are in NATO or not. Lots of family and social ties between the two countries. People in Russia might get exposed to freedom and free speech and economic opportunity. He's worried about change from the inside, something the war is making more possible. He wants his people scared and obedient and a thriving Ukraine is a threat to him. It's a not a bad life according to Skydog but definitely not for everybody.

Since when does our foreign policy come from Moscow? Reagan is rolling over in his grave.

You must not watch / follow them very much. Last season was an outlier; They always average at least 30ppg. There’s a reason why Notre Dame wanted him so badly. Plus, he knows what it takes to not only win but also Win Big at a small, limited power conference school.

Offensively, think Joe Gibbs. They’re going to line-up under center(!) in a lot of 12 & 11, use tons of motion, and pound you & make you pay deep if you try to bring the safety down in run support. Also, unlike a lot of OCs, he’s not afraid to run the same play over&over until you prove that you can stop it…

pboiler18 said:

Of course he wouldn’t. If he came back he could name his price and destination. I think he does come back when ND cycles out Freeman.

Purdue is a hard place to be successful. Not a state school in a 3 Team P4 state with limited local talent. We have had better players than our record says but it takes the right scheme and culture fit to work here IMO.

Click to expand...

I refuse to buy into the notion that Purdue is difficult to succeed.
Great school and campus.
Great support.
Reputation for QBs and D ends.
Big conference and TV.
Do like Tiller did and recruit TX, FL and GA hard. Get the guys who didn’t get to those SEC schools, FSU and MIa.

Many blacks were offended with that foolinsh statement of a black job by Chump.

SKYDOG said:

Is that something said that was taken out of context or really what he meant? I hope he does stop the illegal immigrants.

Dude, Chump has been talking about the so called black jobs all summer. That the immigrants will be taking the jobs away from blacks. Not true because they ain’t taking away my job. That’s was one of the questions ask of him during that Chicago black journalist forum that he embarrassed himself with. Since that forum fiasco blacks have been trying to figure and made jokes about what the so and so is a black job in the first place. We all on this forum talked about this before.

According to Chump, a black job is any job a black person holds. According to Chump, he's going to stop the immigrants so they won't take my black job.

We are at the maximum already so any dollar in the door beyond that is a dollar to us.

But OK…good try!

pboiler18 said:

There’s about 3x his buyout in ticket revenue at stake.

If he goes 2-10 at best they can’t afford NOT to. Pays for this coach and the next. With regression, it’s an absolute no brainer.

I don’t think I’m really being dense by saying I don’t think he gets fired even if it makes sense to do so.

Agree. Completely unrealistic to think he might get fired after only two seasons.

It is an odd strategy, to draw attention to one of her biggest failures.

Almost as odd as picking a stolen-valor vp candidate who put tampons in boys' restrooms.
