Not sure this link works, I’m old….

Anyway, was never aware of this show on YouTube, but I liked it.

Went live this morning. The website wouldn't work so I had to call the ticket office and was on hold for a good 20 minutes.

Section 111, Row 22 on the South side.

Asked a buddy in Milan what the Israel/Palestine sense in Europe/Italia was like:
- Officially Italy supports Israel
- Majority of Italians supported Israel after the Oct 6 attack
- Hamas attack was very suspicious given the location and lack of IDF response - very fishy
- Italians now think Israel is committing genocide in order to "clear" Palestinians from Gaza
- Assume Netanyahu is jailed once Martial Law relaxed in Israel

P.S. And he did get in a chuckle that Italian PM Meloni had to escort Biden off stage like a nurse. Italy is pulling for a Trump victory.

600 - 700 dead and thousands of injured IDF soldiers. Who knew? That’s almost as many Israelis as Hamas killed on Oct 7. Oh well, as many dead Israelis as it takes to wipe out Hamas. Right? Conflict between politicians and military? Say it ain’t so.

By some perspectives, we are ‘killing it’ in HS recruiting this year.

I have a theory that is perhaps unpopular… and admittedly, is a bit cynical.

Have the blue bloods shifted focus to experienced, low risk portal recruiting to a sufficient degree that successful non-bluebloods such as OSU are seeing more talent in their HS recruiting class?

For some time now many of us have expressed some concern about how our developmental approach can translate in the portal era.

What are everyone’s thoughts on this? Are our recruiters really stepping it up or is there less competition for these guys? Can we continue to invest in development if we can’t raise the NIL to retain?

I’m curious what those more informed than I think about the situation.

The B-29 "Doc" that is here visiting this weekend just buzzed the house........doesn't have the original engines, but still sounded pretty sweet..........when I lived in England we were only 20 air miles from RAF Duxford where the "Battle of Britain memorial flight " was based......we would get buzzed by Spitfires' , Hurricanes, Me-109 , Heinkles and the last flying Lancaster all the time....the sound of those Merlin engines would give you goose bumps

These people really are a cancer on humanity. Murder and mayhem wherever they’re found.

I’ll probably get accused of being “Billy Badass”, but it’s worth it just to demonstrate what sort of mentally ill human debris agree with Dodge.

even though you were a liberal hippie, you were one damn good actor. RIP my friend. 88 years young.

Left wing fact-checker admits Trump never called Charlottesville neo-Nazis ‘very fine people’ in blow to Biden

The Texas state GOP included a statement of support for an independence referendum in this year's Legislative Priorities and Platform document. There are similar movements afoot in California, New Hampshire, Alaska, Florida, and Louisiana, so this clearly isn't just a "red state" phenomenon.

Democrats and Republicans had better shift to the middle or this country is screwed.

Crazy. The world has flipped upside down.

Looks like their democrat Allie’s trained them well in the art of lynching.

Do not expect the radical left to survey the wreckage of socialism and communism in history and accept that statism impoverishes people and erodes their freedoms. There will never be admissions by our elite that progressivism exists mainly for the acquisition of power by the utopian and virtue-signaling few, who ensure that they are never subject to the baleful implementation of their ideological agendas on the rest of us.

Still, leftists look around at what they have done to America in the last four years and implicitly know that the plan did not work, the people detested it, or both.

How do we know this? By a variety of barometers.

None of the major Biden “achievements”—10 million illegal aliens across a nonexistent border, key components of the cost of living 25-30 percent higher than in 2020, wars and chaos abroad, DEI racial and tribal obsessions, wars on fossil fuels—poll at even 40-45 percent. Biden’s own approval ratings, as the nominal architect of the most left-wing agenda since the Roosevelt administration, hover between 36 and 34 percent.

But most importantly, the left is not running on its record of the last three-and-a-half years but instead studiously ignoring it, at least temporarily through November.

Geeze!

Why former Oklahoma State signee Jeremiah Johnson committed to Doug Gottlieb, Green Bay​

Scott Venci
Green Bay Press-Gazette



GREEN BAY, Wis. — It’s too early to know if the Doug Gottlieb era will be a success for the University of Wisconsin-Green Bay men’s basketball team.

But the first-year coach already has proven he can land recruits that previously might have been difficult, if not impossible, to imagine.

The Phoenix received a commitment from Jeremiah Johnson on Monday, a 6-foot-4 star point guard from the 2024 class who previously signed with Oklahoma State but was granted his release after Cowboys coach Mike Boynton was fired after the season.

UWGB. Texas A&M. Florida.

Those are the three schools Johnson recently had on his list to visit.

The mid-major one isn’t exactly like the two Power 5 schools, but it didn’t matter in this case.

It didn’t even matter that the Oklahoma City native previously had offers from Oklahoma, Texas, TCU, Arkansas, Texas Tech, Illinois, Tulsa and SMU.

Gottlieb got his guy and in the process showed he and his coaching staff can be a legitimate force in the days of the NCAA transfer portal and NIL.

Johnson was supposed to visit Green Bay on Sunday, Monday and Tuesday, but after he visited Florida, Johnson called Gottlieb.

In no uncertain terms, he told him there wasn’t a need to make a visit. Green Bay was where he wanted to play, sight unseen.

“I was very open-minded,” said Johnson, who played at Putnam North and Norman North. “Like, I didn’t make the decision until really Saturday. That’s when I kind of knew that, yeah, that’s where I want to be at.”

Per NCAA rules, Gottlieb is not allowed to comment until all paperwork has been filed.

It’s the most recent notable signing by UWGB, which last month included former Oklahoma State 7-1 center Isaiah Miranda.

Along with Johnson, UWGB also received a commitment Monday from 6-11 forward-center Roee Oselka, who already is closing in on his 21st birthday and played for an Israeli pro team this past season.

Oselka made an official visit to Ohio State last month and appears to have all four years of college eligibility remaining.

Johnson knows Miranda, having met him when he went on his official visit to OSU before committing to the Cowboys.

Miranda already reached out to congratulate his new teammate.

Jeremiah Johnson is one of the top point guards of 2024 class​

Johnson was ranked among the top 140 players in the nation this season for the 2024 class and considered one of the 12 best point guards.

He has made several different stops on his way to college, including playing the 2023-24 campaign in the Overtime Elite league and averaging 18.4 points, 4.9 rebounds and 4.2 assists.

Johnson picking UWGB over larger schools isn’t normal, but having a prior relationship with Gottlieb helped. Gottlieb is the all-time assists leader at OSU, and the two have known each other for a while considering Johnson was expected to play for the Cowboys.

Gottlieb was the coach at UWGB for about one week when Johnson reopened his commitment last month. Gottlieb was in communication almost immediately.

“Even though I had a lot of Power 5 schools, I wanted to go somewhere where me and the coach have a genuine relationship,” Johnson said.

Still, UWGB? For real?

Even after Gottlieb was in contact with him, Johnson had in his mind to attend a bigger school. But after speaking with Gottlieb, and after hearing his plan, he believes he can at least have the opportunity for an NBA career playing for the Phoenix just like former greats such as Tom Anderson, Ron Ripley, Tony Bennett, Jeff Nordgaard, Logan Vander Velden, Alfonzo McKinnie, Keifer Sykes and Alec Brown did.

Bennett (1992, 35th overall), Nordgaard (1996, 53rd overall) and Brown (2014, 50th overall) were drafted by NBA teams in the second round, while Anderson was selected in the 10th round in 1978 and Ripley in the fourth round in 1979.


Make no mistake. Playing in the NBA is Johnson’s dream. Even more like an expectation.

He doesn’t dismiss the possibility he will play college ball for one or two seasons before making the leap if things go well.

“That’s one of the reasons why I chose Green Bay,” Johnson said. “Because Doug knows my goal is to be in the NBA. You can go to the league from anywhere, as long as you show what you need to show in putting up numbers.”

UWGB steps up to land Jeremiah Johnson​

Speaking of numbers, although figures aren’t released publicly, UWGB likely had to step up with an NIL package good enough that Johnson could consider the Phoenix.

He said UWGB was competitive in its offer compared to other schools.

Johnson has both an NIL agent and a father who is heavily invested in his son’s well-being.

The numbers worked out well enough that everyone was happy.

“You know, NILs and stuff now, a lot of schools give you a lot of money,” Johnson said. “But like I told my pops, I’m not trying to get rich off college. As long as I have got enough money to take care of myself and my family, I’m good.”

There is little reason to believe Johnson can’t be an impact player for UWGB this season. He could be in the starting lineup the first game in November, which just happens to be against Oklahoma State.

His addition eases the sting of losing guards Noah Reynolds to TCU and David Douglas to Fresno State in the portal this offseason.

It’s the second straight year UWGB has landed a significant prospect who had Power 5 offers, and it hopes this one works out as well as the first.

Reynolds left Wyoming after two seasons and committed to play at Wisconsin last spring, only to decommit a short time later to join two familiar coaches at UWGB in Sundance Wicks and Reynolds’ brother, Nic.

Reynolds was one of the best players in his lone season in the Horizon League, earning newcomer of the year honors and helping UWGB go from a dismal 3-29 season to 18-14. He perhaps is the biggest reason Wicks was able to leave for a bigger job at Wyoming after just one year.

There is no promise Johnson can do what Reynolds did right out of the gate. Reynolds averaged 20 points and already was a veteran of the college game while Johnson will be a rookie.

Of course, just like everything else since Gottlieb was hired by UWGB with no college coaching experience and a national radio show, anything seems possible.

“They can expect somebody that is going to have fun on the court,” Johnson said of what he hopes to bring to UWGB. “Be a good person on and off the court. Somebody who is going to be a winner and produce wins.”

For now the IDF just wants us to believe they killed scores of their own citizens because they are incompetent.

No one can be this inept no matter how stupid they are. This can only be intentional by a group of evil people dead set on overthrowing the country.
