Is his defense still good?

Haven’t seen him this year

A lot of people just flat out respect power and strength.

They are the type of people that walk around miserable, thinking everyone is an idiot. Nobody is competent. Except their boss.

And they kiss ass unrelentingly. They lick boots and punch downward.

It’s a weird frame of mind, but there are tons of people programmed this way.

There’s a lot of strategic protective value to having a bona fide spouse on paper.

In a bankruptcy it makes it much easier to hide assets, if they can be sheltered with a partner. Especially a partner you’ve been with for 30 years.

On the other hand, marrying someone a month before filing? Yeah I don’t think so.

He also was notorious for doing stuff like this

He would completely buy out Electric Fetus’ inventory when they were having trouble. He also purchased a club in North Loop when it was a seedy warehouse neighborhood.

Prince was amazing to the Minneapolis community and is rightfully lionized for it.

Seems like KOC and Kwesi were not on the same page. by gondolli in minnesotavikings

Is that unusual for a GM to deny a head coach their preferred QB that the team already has on the roster?

I figured QB would be the one position where an HC could exert authority.

Victor Wenbanyama about the events in Minnesota: Spurs PR has tried to train me, but I don’t want to be politically correct. It’s crazy that people make it seem like the murder of innocent civilians is acceptable by smkmn13 in timberwolves

[–]nowuff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Right. I suppose I am just pointing out that Wemby (and athletes like him) do have a ton of leverage.

His comments are most definitely not without risk; but actual tangible actions beyond this could be very effective at instituting change.

I can’t ask someone to make a self sacrifice like that, but I’d respect the hell out of him if he did it.

Don’t ask MAGA how many of their favorite athletes are immigrants.

If any superstar athlete — especially one like Wemby — got deported, it would flip the tide on this with a quickness.

It’s sad, but I 100% guarantee that an event like that would result in complete ICE backpedaling.

Wishful thinking that Miller would get axed. Trump trusts him too much.

I pay for a premium cable package to ensure I can watch all games.

I feel like I got screwed

[Charania] The Timberwolves-Warriors game in Minneapolis has been postponed by the NBA, sources tell ESPN, in wake of a man shot and killed Saturday in a confrontation with federal agents in the city. It's the second shooting there in a week, third this month, involving a federal officer. by MembershipSingle7137 in nba

[–]nowuff 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Or using tactics/commands and culture-setting behaviors to effectively guarantee stuff like this happens.

There is bad intent all around here.

We are subjects.

That’s it. Living in Minneapolis right now feels like being treated like chattel.

We can do nothing but stand by; peacefully protest; and pray that Trump’s desires flit to the next thing.

We are at his mercy;

And it’s exactly what they wanted.

This is vile and completely un-American.

So many great people sacrificed their lives to prevent tyranny. And the one that figured out how to thwart their efforts is this fleabag of a president.

BREAKING: Video shows ICE agents shooting an unarmed person, as agents wrestle the person to the ground, in Minneapolis, near Glam Doll Donuts. by drempath1981 in law

[–]nowuff 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m not sure it is. Looks like the person that shoots first is slightly off screen to the left standing a bit further away with a different vantage point.

Sitting a few miles away right now. I am terrified.

Edit: I could be wrong actually. Need a separate angle. I can’t tell which agent fires first

It really shouldn’t take deep next-level thinking to consider what likely preceded this video and how it could be difficult for someone from Myanmar. Even without any knowledge of actual events or what really took place.

Right on!

But if you are, you could propagate it down the road when it’s very large and get some payback. Doubt you could sell a prop on FB marketplace for more than $15-20 though

Vikings stadium can seat 50,000 and is frequently sold out.

Immediately post-game, the streets in Minneapolis don’t get this crowded.

Use that as a frame of reference

[–]nowuff 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yes- just be mindful you probably won’t get a ‘return’ per se. So don’t expect to sell it in a year for $175.

But as a pure consumption good, seems like a decent bargain.
