Regardless if we lose by 50 Saturday, Lester has us headed in the right direction. I’ll never forget how the mood changed from Ohio State fans in the endzone stands two years ago. When Joe Evans had that strip sack touchdown on CJ Stroud OSU fans were super tense. I told them not to worry our offense still had 3 and a half quarters left. By halftime I had OSU fans literally apologizing to me and asking how the powers that be let this happen to our offense. They were in shock and couldn’t believe how bad it was until they saw it in person. Go Hawks! Let’s bring back the anxiety to Buckeye fans Saturday.

I am so uninterested in watching it that I don''t even know if it's a TV show or a movie. But I am somewhat curious to know what the point of it is. Does it take a position on his guilt?

Yikes.. another successful catfish from OMG. Nothing we didn't know but always funny to see them say the quiet part out loud.

I would be curious on some of the far right/far left and what their responses will be to this poll. I also expect it would be skewed more toward Hawkeyes getting out of their comfort zone since we haven't seen a national title in many many decades(we can debate pre-watergate nattys some other time.) You can pick the sport(I was thinking football but basketball or any sport or team for that matter will do).

It's October and the Big Ten season is heating up -- Pickin' on the Big Ten has the full rundown for Week 6.

EVERY TIME HE OPENS HIS MOUTH HE LOSES SUPPORT FOR HIS STRIKE.

The union leader behind the ongoing dockworkers' strike in the U.S. is not just against automation technology at America's ports.

International Longshoreman's Association (ILA) President Harold Daggett warned in a recent interview that machines are taking too many people's jobs, and pointed to automated toll booths and self-checkout machines as examples.

In an interview posted on ILA's YouTube channel a month ago, Daggett said he has been fighting automation for years because machines replace workers.

"Take EZPass," Daggett said, referring to the electronic toll system that allows drivers the ability to pay tolls without stopping their vehicles to pay. "The first time they come out with EZPass, one lane of cars were going through, and everybody's sitting in their car and go, 'What? What's that all about? I'm gonna get one of them.'"

"Today, all those union jobs are gone, and it's all EZPass," the ILA president continued. "People don't realize it. Everybody's got three cars. Everybody got an easy pass on the window, and they go through like it's nothing, and they get billed in the mail. They didn't care about that union worker working in the booth."

Daggett then railed against self-checkout machines, and suggested federal lawmakers need to take action to stop the trend of automated technologies.

"You go in a store today, it's self-checking – they don't need anybody to check out," Daggett said. "Someone has to get into Congress and say, ‘Whoa. Time out. This world is going too fast for us. Machines got to stop.’"

The ILA strike has left dozens of U.S. ports on the East and Gulf coasts at a standstill for days, halting trade at the hubs that collectively handle about half of U.S. imports as the union fights for higher pay and protection from automation in negotiations for a new contract with the U.S. Maritime Alliance (USMX), which represents port employers

Since entering the national spotlight, Daggett has garnered scrutiny from critics over his pay package and luxury lifestyle.

Filings show that the ILA leader was paid more than $900,000 in salary last year.

Why do they never have anything you might want but always have 11 options of energy drinks?

The company that stocks my work machines took the final non-carbonated caffeine drink, Starbucks Cold Brew, and replaced with a 10th energy drink, Bang.

Happy Thursday.

And before anyone pushes up their nerd glasses and says "uhhhh why don't you bring your own, it's cheaper?" I do. I just forgot it on my counter this morning.

Hey all, quick update on this week's pod — as I alluded to earlier, we have a special guest coming up, and we can now tell you who it is (as some have guessed already):

Who do you got? Of course with my black and gold (Rose) colored glasses I would take Johnson… some people say he’s 6’0 but I have heard he’s 6’2 235… he definitely doesn’t look 6 foot, I think he’s more like 6’2…

685 for the Big Johnson through only 4 games

585 for Monagai through 5 games

Now Ashton Jeanty has 845 yards? I still would take Kaleb over him

These 2 presidential hopefuls are at odds over a claim in Pompeo's new book that Haley was engaged in a plot to dump Mike Pence and assume the Vice Presidency herself.

Nikki Haley accuses Pompeo of ‘lies and gossip to sell book’ after vice-president plot claim​

Former UN ambassador hits back at former secretary of state as jockeying for Republican presidential primary hots up

Nikki Haley said the former secretary of state Mike Pompeo’s claim that she plotted to replace Mike Pence as Donald Trump’s vice-president was “lies and gossip to sell a book”.

The former United Nations ambassador spoke to Fox News on Thursday evening, after the Guardian obtained a copy of Pompeo’s forthcoming memoir, Never Give An Inch, and reported his comments about Haley.

Haley resigned from the Trump administration in October 2018. Before that, Pompeo says, she set up a personal meeting with Trump in the Oval Office without checking with him.

Pompeo writes that John Kelly, then Trump’s chief of staff, thought Haley had in fact been accompanied by Ivanka Trump and Jared Kushner as they presented “a possible ‘Haley for vice-president’ option”.

Pompeo also writes unfavourably of Haley’s performance as UN ambassador and criticises her resignation.

Speaking to Fox News, Haley said: “I don’t know why he said it, but that’s exactly why I stayed out of DC as much as possible, to get away from the drama.”

She also pointed out that Pompeo says in his book he does not know if the story is true.

Haley and Pompeo are among possible contenders for the Republican presidential nomination in 2024, a contest in which Trump remains the only confirmed candidate.

But Haley seems set to run.

She told Fox News: “We are still working through things and we’ll figure it out. I’ve never lost a race. I said that then I still say that now. I’m not going to lose now.”

Haley turns 51 on Friday. In a remark seemingly directed at Joe Biden, who is 80, but also Donald Trump, who is 76, she said: “I don’t think you need to be 80 years old to go be a leader in DC. I think we need a young generation to come in, step up and really start fixing things. Can I be that leader? Yes, I think I can be that leader.”

The former South Carolina governor has attracted support from Kushner’s family. She told Fox News Kushner and his wife were her friends, though she expected they would support Ivanka’s father.

She said: “May the best woman win.”

Pence, the senators Ted Cruz and Josh Hawley and even the former national security adviser John Bolton are among other possible candidates for the Republican nomination. But two men, Trump and the Florida governor, Ron DeSantis, dominate polling so far.

On Thursday, Ben Rhodes, a former foreign policy adviser to Barack Obama, wrote: “Pompeo and Haley poised for a real battle to see who can crack 1% in a Republican primary.”

Pompeo’s description of Haley’s supposed meeting with Trump chimed with reports that in 2019 prompted Trump to deny considering replacing Pence as vice-president.

On Thursday, Maggie Haberman, the New York Times reporter and author of the bestselling book Confidence Man: The Making of Donald Trump and the Breaking of America, noted that Kushner and Ivanka Trump “insisted to disbelieving colleagues and Pence allies that they had no role in the Haley/VP rumors”.

WHAT! You mean my Vanilla Ice Cream (that's otherwise uber healthy and the equivalent of eating a salad w/ olive oil), wasn't naturally flavored!?!?!
