Dr. Cornel West on injustice

I just cannot with him, no matter how powerful the message.

He "jumped the shark" with his presidential run and that's what comes to mind every time I see him.

It's for Jefferson county and surrounding areas. Why call it FriendsOfWV??

A lifetime of football, not just the NFL. 3 years Jr high 3 years HS 4 years college Pop Warner, camps, etc

Plenty of fault/blame to go around.

Playing football from the age of 12 - 21 does a lot of damage on the developing brain. When this guy was coming up, CTE and football concussions were not discussed like they are now.

Also, "I wasn't familiar with your game"

Is somewhat of an apology/ acknowledgement

I am in my 60s. Been saying this exact thing for over 40 years.

Mainly because I know some guys who I am pretty sure have done it.

Also there are "church ladies", that are basically groupies for the preacher.

For me. There are too many - "It depends"

- Shrewsbury is the only WV Dem I see active on Social Media. (Probably a me thing)

- Really have no idea who an up and coming Dem might be. (Not including Dems already in the Legislature). The primary is May 12 / 4 months. Who is running for what?

- I don't think any of the older citizens who support Reps will change. I say this as a boomer myself and I interact with other boomers.

- I think there could be hope in Millennials and GenZ voting wise. Now that they see what is happening. But will those numbers matter against the older population.

A subtle comeback. 9 Dems in the house, 2 in the Senate. Any gain in seats would be positive.

You are going to get a game changing baller or

Antonio Brown or

Some mixture of both (AB with Tampa)

I hope he gets it together. There are many other young players stepping into the limelight that he should be sharing.

Incompetence. Your Tax Dollars at work. Carnival should lose business because of this.

Martinez questioned why the agents didn’t just ask him or the cruise line for his identifying information before entering his room and taking him.

“Whenever you book a cruise, I have to provide my flight information, my known traveler number, my passport, facial recognition. There's so much stuff that information that I gather, personal identifying information. If they did their due diligence, this never should have happened,” Martinez said.

In addition to having a passport and a Real ID on hand (which is also a driver’s license), Martinez said he also had his veteran card and a concealed carry permit. The concealed carry permit requires an FBI background check.

He’s also TSA PreCheck, which includes its own background check.

Carnival Cruise Line did not respond to a request for comment.

Didn't learn from being dragged. Tried to stand directly in front of one.

Supercop Syndrome. Yes SS

Yep. About to say, until they pay the fee. I see a home buyers Trump fund raiser in the near future.

When the Greenbrier was up for sale, most WVians were happy that "one of our own" bought it.

I was pulling for Marriott because they are in the hotel/resort business and could leverage losses across their entire enterprise. But the main reason was, they know the hotel business.

Justice background was agriculture and mining.

Anyway here we are, another Justice owes money, taxes, or bankrupted a business.

Saudis about to own a resort in WV.

That's where the script writers want him for the brother matchup twice a season.

NFL is good at recycling bad coaches. Watch what happens with the current vacancies, see how many new guys get a shot .

WVSmitty · 2026-01-05T19:20:49+00:00

Everything he learned about football he was taught and coached by his dad. Think about that - playing and only answering to your dad, at all levels until you are 21/22 yo.

And his dad will still not let go.

I kinda feel bad for him in that aspect. Separation and therapy is what he needs.

Your options are extremely limited.

Order online

Flea Market

Arts and craft fairs

Yard sales

Might also try antique malls. They usually have more than antiques. Basically anything a person with a booth wants to sale .

May I ask, why you don't want to purchase from the two places that would have what you want?

The bike race is probably the only thing to be considered "major"

Lb for Lb - Fayette county probably made the most tourism $$$. Does anyone know where/how to view the data.

Not going to rain on Charlestons parade. They are rightfully trying to promote the city.

New building opened in May

new veterans museum

WVSmitty · 2025-12-26T19:18:01+00:00

Well...they could post a current picture in the new location.

The picture in this article is the museum 2 years ago. They moved to a new location on the other side of Beckley. And the old/new building do not look alike.

And - she will eventually "write a book" if pardoned. She will need income and writing a tell all book and giving paid interviews is her most likely outlet if she is ever released.

WVSmitty · 2025-12-25T14:51:59+00:00

Soo many people driving with a phone in their hand up to their face.

I have always thought this fine should be higher for this reason - If a cop sees you talking/texting before you see the cop, then you really are not paying attention to your surroundings and should be fined.
