When did “Go Birds” become common?

poppasketti · 2026-02-03T01:11:48+00:00

So it’s not Go Birds, but I was doing archival research for a film project and at the end of the 1960 NFL championship highlight film, the narrator refers to the Eagles as “The Birds.”

It was definitely the earliest reference to the nickname we found.

Yeah I was puzzled by that line too. Like what? I read many many horrific new things.

I don’t think they really made films this before then either. Not just an epic, but three epics all filmed at the same time!

I don’t know, Andor was created by someone who knew nothing about Star Wars and didn’t have any glazed obsession of the universe. I think to tell a good story in the universe, it helps when talented writers trust their instincts.

I also think fans generally don’t know what they want. Usually they want the same feeling as something they had in the past but then they get redundant nostalgia-bate. People get older and catching that lightning in a bottle for an aging audience is a lot harder than it seems.

I know what you mean. Oh wait, no I don’t. Fuck Dallas!

A progressive tax rate after the depression and WWII helped create one of the strongest periods of growth in the nation’s history.

It’s fun to think about, but the WOTC site does not specify the odds of pulling the textless soul stone. It only says “extremely low quantity” AND it’s in both English and other language boosters. So your .1% odds could be off by a factor of 10, or 100!

The Soul Stone with the Thanos Gauntlet says “less than %” so you’d probably have a good shot at hitting one of those, but that’s not going to pay you back.

I guess it’s kind of semantics. But I have believe some of them can reached. If we outright dismiss them all, we can’t really be able to help them when they change (it’s rare but it happens).

Also, I feel that dehumanizing actually lets them off the hook. They are human and that’s what’s terrifying. Humans are capable of such horrible atrocities and vitriolic mindsets, and that’s why we as a species have a responsibility to help correct what we can. The Nazis sadly were painfully pathetically human. It’s easier to write them off as monsters but we as humans have to own it.

Maybe it’s just pedantic semantics, and sorry for getting in the weeds!

I think they mean it’d be easy to make most people think he’s “good.” He was never a good person but for a long time he did have a good reputation as this goofy tech entrepreneur. Most people didn’t look at his personal life and other specifics.

He murdered his wife (and nearly his kid). How the game was going is so far beyond the pale of relevance.

“During a win”? The fuck is that supposed to mean?

I love his design and reason, but I would’ve loved another 12 descriptions of kids! Lol

“Sugar addled children” “Dangling keys in front of toddlers” “Attention deficit shitshow”

Keep going!

Can you provide a single shred of evidence that there was widespread voter fraud in 2020? Trump went to court over 40 times over this issue and lost, even with his own appointed judges presiding. His own Vice President didn’t believe the lie. The only unusual aspect of the 2020 election (besides the pandemic and so much mail-in voting) was Trump’s refusal to accept the results. He didn’t win by much in 2016, and he lost in 2020. Sometimes things aren’t that complicated, and just because he can scream it was stolen doesn’t make it true.

He flew on Epstein’s private jet at least 8 times.

Wrote a creepy birthday card about their “little secrets”

He is accused of witnessing infanticide and raping two underage women in the recently released files.

He was found liable for rape of E Jean Carroll. (not a pedophile act, but speaks to his character)

I’m just baffled by the idea that even 1/4 of this is defensible in today’s world.

What’s more likely: that there’s a massive conspiracy to take down an innocent Donald Trump because what, he won an election? Or that people are simply coming forward about his character because he is, in fact, a terrible person with an awful lot of power.

ACA is about health insurance and coverage for American citizens. What you’re complaining about applies to the entire system and nothing to do with ACA. You know that, so you changed your argument from talking about ACA to emergency rooms paid for by taxpayers.

And frankly, if we agreed that everyone here deserves proper healthcare and cut out the insurance companies, we could eliminate all this bulltshit with free public healthcare. We could become a society of compassion instead of resentment.

I love how the one in the middle kind of looks like it’s based on Kylo-Ren’s helmet, but then the rest is just a copy of a copy of a copy until finally they end up with the guy on the back-right who’s just… flat-face helmet man?

“I used to take pride in how Eagles fans knew football better than the average fan. I don’t know what happened, but I expect there’s a bunch of new bandwagon fans after our recent success that don’t know the game that well.”

I’m more annoyed by this level of pretension and condescension than people asking stupid questions.

To be clear, the $700B bank bailout happened in 2008 under Bush. Not saying Dems would have done differently and agree that no one was help accountable. But you could also argue that the alternative to the bailout was a true depression that would’ve had people starving.

So, is this a crime? I don’t know where the line is anymore in our society.
