Topic Wiki

Thread summary:

Trump walks in a room.

1. Moshe123 shoots at him because he is pure evil, 2. ilherman+hachover jump in front of the bullets because Trump is our savior. 3. aygart tackles Moshe123 because Trump is better than HRC, 4. but Baruch can't stand Trump so he tells aygart he's crazy and Trump is a madman. 5. ExGingi would like to point out that who cares what he is, all that matters is the supreme court nominations. 6. Dan and others aren't really sure how this makes them feel plus they don't really want to drink poison. 7. Spoiler alert: Moshe123's gun was empty, it was just a blank.

And Freddie is in the back of the room just cooking his cholent. Until he announces that there are TWO menu choices, Pareve Cholent or Vegetable Lasagna. While etech0 figured out that they are both poisoned.


Repeat x100.

And then Hilary walks into the room with the most confidence a candidate has had in recent history. She is so confident that she eats both the Pareve Cholent and Vegetable Lasagna. Everyone is the room is aghast, they don't know how this happened, could it be Comey is behind this poisoning or was it that her Obamacare premiums were to high to get her the help she needed.

Everyone stared as she choked and was cast into oblivion on November, 8, 2016 the last day she was heard from in the public eye.

Moshe123, ilherman, hachover, Baruch, ExGingi, Dan, Freddie, etech0, and the rest of America are in total shock and hope that so long as Trump doesn't eat any Pareve Cholent and Vegetable Lasagna and stays true to his supreme court nominees this may be the greatest thing to happen since the CSR and GC's.

But remember this may be the beginning of the end...

P.S. Thanks to cognitive dissonance aygart, Michael Moore, and Scott Adams knew the whole time that Trump could win, unfortunately for JTZ he may be off DDF for the next 4 years due to his mandatory 3 times daily consumption of CROW!

As things turns out, the most prescient view on this election was that of Michael Moore! Though Scott Adams is also claiming a high view level of prescience.

The big difference is that one became president and one doesn't seems to have been successful at anything at this point.

Although it does seem they have much in common. You may even find Scott Adams there.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LaVar_Ball
Quote
In the media




Ball's early rise to fame was fueled by comparing his son Lonzo with the NBA superstars above. Clockwise from upper left: Magic Johnson, Stephen Curry, Russell Westbrook, LeBron James.
Although Ball alone initially received minimal public attention before much of 2016, his sons gave him a media platform that he would begin to use increasingly, starting at the end of the year. In July 2015, LaVar and his sons made national sports headlines when Gary Parrish of CBS Sports wrote a feature story about the Ball family.[19] In a March 2016 interview with MaxPreps, he first began displaying his confident personality to the public. When asked who Lonzo plays like, he described his son as "Magic (Johnson) with a jumper."[7] The family continued rising in popularity after SLAM magazine featured them in an article in August 2016.[1] Subsequently, Ball himself rapidly rose in profile through a series of incredible comments about his children, such as on November 26, 2016, when in a TV interview he guaranteed that UCLA, spearheaded by Lonzo, would win the 2017 NCAA Division I Tournament.[20] On December 14, LaVar predicted that all three of his sons would be one-and-done prospects for the NBA draft.[21]

Many of Ball's eccentric claims have involved well-known basketball players. In early March 2017, he said that he viewed Lonzo as a better player than Stephen Curry.[22] UCLA all-time leading scorer Don MacLean called the comments "outrageous," and many bloggers ridiculed Ball for them.[22] LaVar has also stated that he believes his eldest son is "the best player in the world," specifically comparing him with LeBron James and Russell Westbrook.[23] Kyle Boone of CBS Sports responded: "There's no way in the world Lonzo would be taking down LeBron or Westbrook in any form of basketball right now."[23]

Michael Jordan comments

Ball's claim in March 2017 that he would "kill Michael Jordan (pictured) one-on-one" greatly increased Ball's presence in sports media.
On March 13, 2017, Ball said in an interview with Josh Peter of USA Today: "Back in my heyday, I would kill Michael Jordan one-on-one," saying Jordan could only foul him if he did a jump hook, that Jordan couldn't stop him one-on-one, that Jordan was slower.[24] Ball was widely mocked for making the statement despite having averaged only 2.2 points per game while playing basketball at Washington State.[25][26][24]


Ball's comments comparing himself with Jordan resulted in a significant increase in media attention.[27] Following his claim, he appeared on the ESPN show First Take, in which he argued with Stephen A. Smith about his comments on Jordan.[28] As of mid-October 2017, a YouTube video of the segment has received more than 2.4 million views.[29]

Promotion of Big Baller Brand
Ball has frequently drawn attention to his sports apparel company Big Baller Brand through the media. In his rise in March 2017, he began often promoting his brand on national TV, comparing it with major shoe companies like Nike and Adidas.[30] Soon after, Lonzo's connection to the brand while he played college basketball at UCLA raised questions about whether it broke National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) rules.[31] In mid-March, Time wrote an article describing LaVar and Lonzo's campaign against the NCAA rules.[32] On April 20, George Raveling, the global basketball sports marketing director of Nike, called Ball "the worst thing to happen to basketball in the last hundred years."[33][34] In response, Ball claimed that Big Baller Brand would eventually compete with Nike[34] In the following week, Nike, Under Armour, and Adidas declined to sign an endorsement deal with Lonzo, according to LaVar.[35][36]

On May 4, 2017, Big Baller Brand announced its first shoes, the ZO2, which had a retail price of $495 and would be shipped later as late as November 24.[37][38] Shaquille O'Neal criticized Ball for overpricing the shoes, while Dick Vitale took aim at the price by citing Lonzo's performance against Kentucky at the NCAA Tournament.[39][40] On Twitter, many NFL players like Golden Tate were critical of the shoe price, while Arian Foster and others showed their support.[39] Ball answered by posting on Twitter, "If you can't afford the ZO2'S, you're NOT a BIG BALLER!"[39] The Washington Post wrote that LaVar's style of promoting of the shoe was both shameless and smart.[39]

On September 1, 2017, Big Baller Brand announced a signature shoe for LaMelo Ball, the Melo Ball 1 (MB1), on its website for pre-order for $395.[41] The announcement once again stirred controversy regarding LaMelo's NCAA eligibility.[41][42] NCAA spokesperson Emily James said, "Generally speaking, a college athlete or prospect paid for use of their athletics reputation or ability risks their future eligibility in that sport. This includes profiting from the sale of items bearing the young person's name. NCAA rules, however, do allow prospects to promote commercial products prior to enrollment, provided it is not for pay."[41] LaVar expressed a general disregard for the NCAA rules, saying that the shoe would be released whether or not his son would become ineligible.[41][43]

They should all to thrown out starting with our current president and going back to Bill.

The real hypocrisy is the Thrumpsters and the President staying quit on this. An accused pedophile and they just look the other way. Can it get anymore disgusting?
No evidence on either and no admission of guilt, not much to go on without a court of law conviction. Nice that you consider yourself an American patriot but don't go with "Innocent until proven guilty"
On the other hand with Al Franken, John Conyers, Bill Clinton, Charlie Rose and I could go on and on. We have either an admission or proof of it. But yeah it's the same exact thing.

What exactly do you think the phrase in quotations means that you're connecting it to American patriotism?
