  1. Black alternates were in vogue at that time. Lol I've been here longer than you
  2. Made the mistake of buying frozen concentrate pineapple juice as a 20 year old making Caribou Lou for a party. My inebriated oversight made the evening quite the.... forgetful experience for many.
  3. I'm not big on the yellow jerseys. I think they get worn too often. Kinda ruined a fun little novelty by doing it too much.
  4. Felony-murder cases were wild to read about lol. My favorite one was a robber getting convicted of felony-murder because his accomplice was killed by police in the ensuing shootout. I recall states having some really big differences in application.
  5. Allegedly high man on an unknown substance in a major metro vs. a potentially drunk driving traffic stop in North Dakota might merit different responses from police. Seems like a really weird hill to die on when you have many many other actions by the police to criticize. I'm not a cop. I'm not sure how they should go about that part of the detention.
  6. I am pretty sure the police were told that he was probably high on something. His reaction also probably put them on notice that something was up as well. Ehhh...I dont think many people think he deserved to die. I think many folks are probably just not going to get worked up over the guy dying. End of the day, I thought the cops got put in a bad situation and Derek Chauvin went too far. I won't speak to if he wanted to kill the guy or not.
  7. All black uni's are awful. Unless it's like...Purdue or Texas Tech
  8. Cool opportunity for UND. I've always wanted to see NDSU get out there. They got a pretty cool stadium/campus if pictures are doing it any justice.
  9. Bad legal takes is amazing! Especially when they nail a new contributor who used to be a federal prosecutor or something lol.
  10. I was cracking up seeing people on social media. "Oh this guy is incompetent! What an awful lawyer!" Dude seemed pretty sharp to me. Was impressed with both sets of lawyers ability to pretend to understand all them scientific terms lol.
  11. I dont think you want to put Chauvin on the stand. Cross examination would be very uncomfortable.
  12. I thought the defense did a good job per what I've heard from lawyers? Seems like one of those situations where a reasonable jury could find the guy guilty. But a reasonable guy can also think the guy got railroaded as far as the trial. I have a hard time understanding why this trial was in Minneapolis. Any Minneapolis juror is going to have a substantial interest in whatever outcome is gonna prevent rioting. Politicians and activists demanding a guilty verdict while basically holding a molotov cocktail.... it smells bad. This jury got put in a tough spot. I'm not sure how a trial can be fair to either the defendant or the jury when only one outcome will maintain peace in the city. To those who thought it was super simple and straightforward, I dont think it was. The state called two weeks of witnesses, they went out and hired doctors from across the country to contradict their own county medical examiner. One of the doctors claimed to have put in 150 hours working on the case. Does that seem simple to you?
  13. They should probably be better. I will not assume they will be great at QB but they should be in a better spot there. We'll see what happens with the other positions and transfers and what not.
  14. Can't speak to the current students, but the SDSU football/basketball games were typically a bigger deal than other games on the schedule. It helped that both teams were pretty good, easier to develop bad blood when battling for conference championships. I'm sure it was in some ways manufactured at the beginning. But it turned into a pretty fun deal.
  15. Defense has called a pretty interesting pathologist. I was wondering how this would go once the defense started calling up their own doctors.
  16. Pretty bizarre situation to not play a game in so long.
  17. My other sister is much worse, I agree
  18. I thought the defense did a nice job showing that the knee may not have been on the neck as much as folks thought.
  19. Anyone following the Chauvin trial? Judge said today that the defense will start tomorrow and finish by end of the week probably. Know we got some lawyers on here, any of you fellas got any thoughts? I'm an idiot, but I do have one strong opinion...."spark of life" witnesses or whatever the term of art is should not be allowed. Having George Floyd's brother talk about George enjoying Tecmo Bowl back in the day has nothing to do with whether he was the victim of murder or manslaughter. I admire my sister but if she gets shot tomorrow, I'm not sure me talking about our Mario Party battles help jurors decide if @vmeister pulled the trigger or not.
  20. Perhaps the movie to D1 will bring a message board.
  21. Need a committee to make sure the trophy production is green... I'll call Greta
  22. I dont see why not lol. Can the NCAA tell you that you MUST play even though you've decided this is best for the players?
  23. This is all dumb. FBS pulled it off. The B1G and PAC did a terrible job, but the rest seemed to do a good job. The FBS also takes football seriously. The FCS exists for basketball schools who want to play football as well.
