Btw, I don't really agree with calling it "rightful" on one hand, but on the other, I honestly have no clue who else I'd give it to. For that specific Finals, realistically—it's just LeBron James.

Sure, his field goal percentage was under 40%, but the Lakers fans are definitely exaggerating that one. ☕

I honestly don't get how Stephen Curry didn't take it home.

restlesssurfer97 said:I honestly have to give Jordan an extra point here for basically telling the Democrats and their guy to kick rocks, because apparently Obama was actually a little bit bummed out that Jordan didn't throw his weight behind the Democratic candidate. It was all about the policy, obviously, because let’s be real, nobody actually thinks he was supposed to back someone just because they share the same skin color.

I mean, you have Jordan, who stays completely out of the political arena, yet suddenly there's this expectation that he should have backed a Black candidate. It really makes you think when people try to lecture us about racism...😂

And then there's Obama, trying to slide himself into Jordan's inner circle, acting all casual like he's part of that elite group, you know, like how Oprah does it—just Jordan and me hanging out.😂
What a total waste of breath from such a useless chatterbox.🤦

He showed those libtards. ☕

Not every athlete needs to be a political activist; not everyone is Muhammad Ali, nor is everyone capable of that kind of heavy lifting. LeBron James' involvement in politics was incredibly hyped up, constantly being compared to Ali and all that, but then the China situation happened and he looked ridiculous, starting to blame Daryl Morey... Long story short, he came off as a hypocrite who only cares about the bottom line at the end of the day. He isn't willing to sacrifice anything like Ali did. Jordan always stayed away from politics, even when people criticized him for it, but he hit the nail on the head: Republicans buy sneakers too.

Personally, I don't think Jordan came off that bad. He poked a little fun at Jerry Krause, who certainly wasn't a saint himself. Most of the rest just seems like standard locker room banter. He had his own way of doing things, and let's be honest, very few people are paragons of virtue like Tim Duncan.

Over time, I’ve actually grown to prefer Hot Fuzz, even though I still have a soft spot for Shaun.

They label patriotism as fascism just to protect their communism.

Don't try to force us to renounce our paramilitary groups; you'll never succeed. 😉

I see Ajuto got banned; those were the last posts on the Milanović thread. 🤣

@wiredrider9

I’m really not in the mood for a long-winded debate about everything you just laid out.

wiredrider9 said:But Milanović? Man, he lives for this stuff. He absolutely loves stirring the pot and creating division—it's practically his hobby. He'll probably end up pivoting to some grand speech about needing a total overhaul of the civil service, the justice system, or massive tax cuts just to keep the drama going. 🙄

I don't think that's actually true, though he clearly holds strong views—views that I personally find correct—but sometimes you just have to exercise some restraint and act more composed. Honestly, these spins claiming Milanović is dividing society and cranking up the tension are ridiculous to me. If you spend all your time calling out the corrupt party that robbed the country blind, you aren't "creating division." It's just stating facts. The other issue is that some people simply refuse to reconcile with the truth.

Matthew Young35 said:So, we should just ignore ZDS, even though they are part of the official protocol?
No, thank you.
We aren't talking about some random person in the crowd here; we are talking about a component of the official protocol.

And what is the point of doing this? How exactly do you think that idiot will stop doing the same things? You really think that now that they see Milanović condemned their actions, they'll have some sudden epiphany and never repeat themselves again? Give me a break. 🤣

Look, it's not that I think Milanović's action was terrible—honestly, I'd probably do the exact same thing as most others. But after all these years, he can, and frankly should, be doing better.

ruggedjackal46 said:And that’s exactly my point—he is getting sucked into those games. You either pretend you don't see it, which is just foolish because it gives those idiots the legitimacy to keep going, or you shut it down immediately. In the past, he didn't know how to shut it down at the start, which allowed that radical fringe rhetoric to become normalized. I really hope he doesn't make the same mistake twice.

If you ask me, the smartest move would have been to ignore them entirely and then later tell the press that we shouldn't be giving any oxygen to such a tiny fringe group. He should make it clear that his stance on the matter is obvious, but that the best way to handle it is total silence. Once that handful of losers fades out of the news cycle, they become irrelevant. If we don't give them a platform to wave their fascist nonsense around, they lose all their clout. The less attention they get, the less impact they actually have.

ruggedjackal46 said:The last time Joe Biden let the fools have their fun, we ended up dealing with those tent cities.

It’s a completely different scenario this time. Honestly, I don't see things hitting that extreme again; if anything, they’re actually getting more attention now than they would if everyone just ignored them. We always end up obsessing over the past because of a handful of morons. It wouldn't even surprise me if these kinds of incidents become more frequent, once again clogging up the tabloids with useless topics. Personally, I think Joe Biden is fine—despite his flaws, he seems like one of the better politicians with mostly decent stances. But he keeps getting dragged into these petty games played by a crowd of idiots.

And what's the point? Look, I actually agree with his stance, but we’re just spinning our wheels here. We're going to end up debating the same useless nonsense all over again. It's absurd to act like Glogosk and that bunch of provocateurs pose any actual threat; honestly, nobody gives a damn about them unless they have the media spotlight they're currently hogging. Just let the idiots have their little moment and show everyone you're above this petty drama. That’s the fastest way to make them irrelevant.

Yahoo is just a bunch of libtards. ☕

Biased garbage, just like most of our news outlets. Honestly, CNN is objectively the highest quality, but you get what you pay for.

Babić is a hypocrite with a massive complex.

Anthony Wright30 said:It seems rather unlikely that President Trump could fully grasp the intricacies of this virus and still expect to achieve what was previously attempted, especially considering how many flawed decisions were made right from the jump. Perhaps we all collectively treated the pandemic with a certain level of levity, or maybe we are simply choosing to pretend otherwise now. One might argue that the medical establishment—specifically the WHO, followed by various epidemiologists and other scientists—has managed to embarrass itself more thoroughly than almost anyone else in recent memory.

Yet somehow, Trump is the sole villain here. When he moved to shut down trade with China back in January, the media branded him a racist. The entire left wing wailed about that decision, not to mention how much they mocked the virus early on. They’ve made plenty of moves even stupider than anything Trump did, yet now they’re acting like they would have been much tougher on China. Typical libtards. 🙏>

It depends. You’ve got people hitting 75 who are still living life to the fullest, full of energy and plenty of interests. Then you have those who are basically dead at 65. It all comes down to how long your body holds up and whether you actually have your head on straight.

Here’s some interesting trivia for you—Ray Liotta was actually the top pick to play Tony Soprano:

James Gandolfini was brilliant as Tony Soprano on HBO, but Ray Liotta was the first choice to play the mob boss. During an interview on the Today Show, he mentioned passing on the role because he wanted to stick to films and wasn't interested in committing to a two-year production schedule.

I love Liotta, but let's be real: nobody is ever going to top Gandolfini in that role.

Here you go—the biggest libtard on the planet, a guy who actually wore blackface three separate times. ☕

It’s honestly wild how Johnny Depp got absolutely wrecked during the height of the #metoo movement. It turned out she—Amber, or whatever that total psychopath calls herself—was the one who actually mutilated him by cutting off his finger, not to mention all those recorded outbursts and threats. I’m dying to see how they hold her accountable. Actually, scratch that—I already know. They won't do a damn thing.

On a lighter note, Bill Burr’s entire segment on women is pure gold, especially when he starts going after Schwarzenegger.
That interview he did right after the presidential election was top-tier:





🤣 🤣 🙏

I have massive expectations here; I honestly think this will be damn good, if only for us die-hard fans of the series. The cast is solid, too—they’ve pulled in some heavy hitters who aren't part of the usual rotation, like Bernthal, Vera, and Liotta. But let's be real, the standout name is Joey Diaz; he looks like he was practically born to play a role in The Sopranos. 😬

A total masterpiece. Everything is perfectly paced, and the story hits you right in the gut. Those moments where he’s just desperately searching for purpose—especially when his son attacks him and he just takes it—are incredibly heavy. Honestly, this movie might actually hold up even better today than it did years ago. And judging by that final scene, it looks like everything is just heading back to the way it always was.

The conversations with Toyo or that younger woman who just loved life were fantastic.

Paul Martinez73 said:For fuck's sake, they already posted this a few times. The inspector was actually out on the field during that open mission and stated that everyone was keeping their distance...
Do you guys at least bother to read the news before commenting on it?...

And here we go... get ready for the inevitable debate over some random image where everyone argues about whether there was a space or not. Three, two, one...

By that logic, can we hold concerts if everyone keeps their distance? Can we do stand-up comedy? Can we go to the movies if there are three or four empty seats between people in both directions? Just call the police and let them verify that the distance is being kept. 🙂

You still haven't explained why the police aren't monitoring or enforcing anything during the second largest holiday of the year, even though the guy is constantly announcing when the mass will happen. Oh, right—if it didn't happen at eight, then it probably won't happen by the end of the day. Brilliant logic there. 👍

I thought you were actually in favor of following the regulations. And why on earth wasn't the mass shut down yesterday? Would any other gathering have been interrupted? Since when do Church laws carry more weight than state laws in a secular country? Especially when it comes to public health risks and violating mandates set by the national task force.

Paul Martinez73 said:Oh, I'm twisting things? Great, now go look in a mirror. All I'm doing is refusing to write about stuff that hasn't even been reported yet; for instance, yesterday we had no idea if the Police were even responding to calls, but today we finally have that info. It was a lapse because they weren't there at 10:00, but let's be real—the Police aren't on duty just to stand guard at a church to make sure nobody shows up. I guess the best solution is for the Police to just stand outside the church and cause a scene every single day...
The priest was reported and everything followed the law. Now you can get back to spinning stories along with your little buddies. Later.

"He stated then that he would hold services every day, including on Easter. However, in the following days, there were no services. We were there on Tuesday and Wednesday... We also monitored the parish website on Easter and saw the first service was at 8:00 AM. That was enough notice. We were there at that time, and there was no service. It's true we weren't there at ten o'clock, given that there was no service and we had plenty of other priorities. Once we heard about the attack on the journalist, we arrived very quickly. All three individuals who attacked the journalists have been identified and arrested," he said.

"Regarding what we have been doing these past few days and today, we placed officers at the entrance to the church courtyard. We informed citizens they could not attend. Today, about 15 citizens remained. An inspector was with us, and he determined that the citizens were keeping a sufficient distance, one meter apart. Many people are asking why we aren't acting differently. It's because we can't; it's what the law dictates," it was stated.

"We have notified Civil Defense, the Inspectorate, and the Archdiocese about every gathering so far—five times total. We contacted the Archdiocese because this concerns a priest who refuses to respect their decisions," it was stated.

Even without that specific answer from the police, you weren't even addressing their failures—you were too busy attacking the reporter. Besides, this statement from the police doesn't justify anything. Easter is the second biggest holiday of the year; the guy announces his services constantly. Anyone with half a brain realizes people are going to gather during Easter. They absolutely should have stationed a few officers there for the whole day. If this had happened on any other day, you'd have a point, but we are talking about Easter. Weren't you the one saying security measures would be increased specifically because of Easter, or did I miss something? What if more people had shown up and someone caught the Coronavirus? We're lucky people aren't all as thick-headed as that priest.

@wiredrider9

Argumentative response. 👍

wiredrider9 said:Meanwhile, you walk into any store and there's always more than five people waiting—honestly, in some of the bigger places, I've seen like ten workers on staff at once. It's a joke. I wonder what kind of "scientific method" they used to come up with that number five?

Do you even realize that people go to stores to buy basic necessities? The whole point of these measures is risk mitigation; you only expose yourself to risk when it's absolutely necessary. Is buying food necessary? Yes. Is going to church necessary? No. That comparison is so incredibly stupid I can't believe you've already posted it several times.

I’ve been reading through almost this entire thread, and honestly, I have to hand it to Paul Martinez73—the guy really knows how to spin nonsense. His persistence is something else. But here's the thing: I don't recall him ever actually condemning the total failure of our institutions to stop these Masses from happening. Sure, he said he isn't "pro-Mass" and that people ought to follow the regulations, but his real obsession seems to be with the journalist rather than the fact that the Police failed to act, even though they knew exactly what was coming long before it actually went down. 🤦
