Why didn't she drop the snow board first? Jeez...


Sometimes I think reporters - and editors - get caught up a bit to much in hyperbole. Case in point? Why do they have to lead with the word 'horrifying' when coulda just gone to the video tape? Easy - people are idiots who, so it seems, only respond to outrageous and wild stories. Anyway, Monmouth Mountain staff rushed to help, setting up padding and a safety net below to catch her. The girl missed most of the net and crashed hard into the ground.
The video, which was first posted Facebook by a bystander, included the caption, “I wasn’t going to post this, but I know so many people who argue with me about putting the bar down. It’s mandatory in Europe, and it should be here.”





I figured it was cooties...

Why does the MSM hate you as much as it does? Case in point? The Stupid Bowl halftime shows...

Fox news is pretty much the only news outlet that's supporting and promoting TPUsa's alternative halftime show, the vast majority of the rest are poo-pooing it as if it was a bad rerun of the Lawrence Welk show. What is it about the majority of leftie-leaning or just plain leftie news sites that they're so enamored of a Trump-hating, Puerto Rican half gay guy in a dress and sings in a language other than our own? 
It isn't that as much as it is that somehow they conflate TPUsa as being associated with the Trump administration and, as such, they have to go balls-to-the-wall against anything their DTS tells them to hate on. 
 

I'm not that old (okay, I am) but I can actually remember when reporters reported the news without having to tell you their opinion of anything - as if we give a fuck what they think. Juss' sayin'...

Some days are harder than others...

 I know it might sound silly, but there are days when I can't 
figure out what to start this with...  

I always try to start out with something that'll - metaphorically, at least - grab ya by the nuts and hold your attention. Yeah, well, some days the pickin's are ripe, and other days - like today - there's no so much shit goin' on it's better to start out as neutral as possible and let the chips fall where they wanna, if ya get my drift. Pretty cool graphic, though,, huh?

Today in History: The National League Modifies the Ball
  
In 1931 the National League made a controversial change to make baseball more interesting.
It seemed that batters had a big advantage over pitchers. Base hits and home runs were becoming too common. So the league introduced a new baseball, one that wouldn’t travel as far when hit. Its cushioned cork center and thicker leather hide made it less responsive to impact. The new ball also had raised stitching, which gave pitchers better control.
The following season, the number of league home runs fell from 900 to 500. In time, the American League also adopted the dead balls. 
Then, thirty years later, team owners thought they’d been too successful. They wanted to raise attendance by bringing back higher scoring games. So they lowered the pitcher’s mound and narrowed the strike zone. But game scores continued to be modest until 1973, when the American League introduced the controversial designated hitter rule.
And the endless tinkering with baseball rules went on.

I've finally come to the conclusion that the New Yorker Magazine is put together by a bunch of limp-wristed liberal jerkoffs to please an audience of like-minded limp-wristed liberal jerkoffs with no sense of humor. 
I'm so old that I can actually remember back to the days when it was a bright, adult-oriented,, sophisticated magazine. Now, god knows what inmates are running that asylum. And they haven't published a truly funny cartoon since Charles Barsotti died. Juss' sayin'...

Rep. Maxine Waters is going viral after claiming she could be “next,” alleging the president “abducted Maduro,” and warning Americans might be targeted just for speaking out, calling him dangerous. Left critics scream “constitutional crisis,” but on the right, it reads as hysteria from a lawmaker terrified of real leadership.

Immigration and Customs Enforcement arrested more than 650 illegal aliens in West Virginia during a statewide enforcement surge conducted from Jan. 5 to Jan. 19, federal officials announced. The operation involved ICE Philadelphia working with 14 local law enforcement agencies under the federal 287(g) program and targeted individuals with criminal histories and prior removal orders.
ICE teams were deployed across Martinsburg, Moorefield, Morgantown, Beckley, Huntington, and Charleston. Officials said those arrested included individuals convicted of child sex abuse, drug possession, and endangering the welfare of children, as well as people who had previously been ordered removed from the United States.
“This operation demonstrates how strong partnerships between ICE and West Virginia law enforcement agencies enhance public safety and the integrity of our immigration system,” said Michael Rose, acting field office director for ICE Enforcement and Removal Operations in Philadelphia.
State and local officials praised the operation, while supporters cited public safety gains. Critics of large-scale enforcement actions continue to raise concerns nationally about immigration policy and oversight.

This is how she's gonna make the Garden State 'affordable'?

 
Newly elected ultra-lib Governor Mikie Sherrill is going to make her predecessor - Phil Murphy - look like Gengis Khan before she's done. 
Her latest message of “affordability” is drawing sharp criticism after reports surfaced that her inaugural festivities included a private dinner charging up to $100,000 per plate - a figure far beyond the reach of the average New Jersey resident.
According to a Politico report, the high-dollar event was held at the Meadowlands complex, the same venue shared by the New York Jets and Giants, and was part of a series of celebrations marking Sherrill’s swearing-in. Attendees reportedly paid at least $100,000 - and in some cases over $250,000 - to dine with the then-incoming governor, despite state law capping individual inaugural contributions at $500.
That apparent contradiction was made possible through a legal loophole that allowed donors to contribute to a separate entity supporting the festivities, meaning the full list of contributors may never be disclosed.
 
Critics say the lavish fundraising undermines Sherrill’s campaign promises of transparency and fiscal fairness. The former congresswoman built her gubernatorial bid around affordability, government reform, and “getting dark money out of politics.” Yet, the event’s six-figure price tag and secrecy over donor identities have reignited debate over whether Trenton’s ethics standards are being selectively applied.

If nothing else, this should be fun to watch...

According to a couple of Floria Hillbillys, Former President Bill Clinton and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton have agreed to testify before the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee in its investigation into convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. The decision marks a sharp reversal after months of negotiations and comes as House Republicans were preparing to move forward with contempt of Congress resolutions against both Clintons, which the committee voted to advance last month.
Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer (R-Ky.) questioned the timing of the agreement, saying it only came after contempt proceedings gained momentum. “The Clintons’ counsel has said they agree to terms, but those terms lack clarity yet again and they have provided no dates for their depositions,” Comer said. “The only reason they have said they agree to terms is because the House has moved forward with contempt.” Comer added that he would review the details before deciding the committee’s next steps.
The announcement sparked tense exchanges during a House Rules Committee meeting, where Comer appeared to learn of the Clintons’ decision in real time. Earlier, Comer had rejected a previous offer from the Clintons as “unreasonable,” accusing them of seeking special treatment and calling it “an affront to the American people’s desire for transparency.” Clinton spokesman Angel Ureña pushed back, accusing Republicans of bad-faith negotiations and saying the Clintons “look forward to setting a precedent that applies to everyone.”
 

Rumor has it online bookies are already taking bets on how many times the Clintons will invoke the Fifth Amendment (you know, pleading the fifth) once the questioning starts...
