The SEC is going to make all their football teams play soccer now.

Whitecaps have a golden opportunity to gain a ton of fans here.  Canucks nation is in full angst mode from 10+ years of bad management.

Quote from: grumbler on December 05, 2025, 10:05:36 PMThis is way-old news.  Why bring it up now, and why associate Hegseth with it?
Hegseth is my mistake, I admit.

But old news?

It just got published yesterday.  I don't recall hearing about this one, but you do have other, better sources than me for military news than I do.

There is no sport called "football."  There are many sports that are types of football, but there are also many sports that are called "racing." People just drop the qualifier to fotball for their own local football types (Association, American, Rugby, Australian, etc).

Not that sch a sophisticated notion is something Trump could understand.

Yeah, it's a good overview. I disagree with little, mainly PKPs influence on PSPP.

Jacob, you also asked what the issues of the next election will be.

I think Bill 2 and fixing the Doctor exodus it has created will be a big talking point.

The PQ are independentist and leading the polls, they will push that talking point as long as they can. The Liberals will react to that trying to gain a foothold with francophone voters and carve some seats out of the PQ wall.

The CAQ will try to rally the 65% of voters that say they don't want a referendum with having 8 years of disastrous governance as their legacy.

QS is irrelevant outside of deep immigrant Montréal.

Viper didn't mention them but we also have Conservative party that rallied the Pro-death COVID deniers in 2022. I don't know what to think about their chances in this election. Maybe 1 MP out of Beauce, probably not. Their leader is unpopular with his MAGA base.
