Peter Jok is heading to the 2024 Paris Olympics

So what you are really saying is, you are MAGA and he's not.
Ummm....no.
What I'm saying is I don't look to Steve Kerr, Aaron Judge, Mike Trout, Patrick Mahomes, etc for my cultural/political guidance and for them to think that we NEED to hear their thoughts on things other than why they took Curry out, their current streak at the plate, or their injury luck, or bandana choices (realizing nobody after Kerr says any of that stuff) annoys me. Steve seems to think that he is the beacon of truth and light for the world and we all need to hear his sermons. And I would feel that way if I agreed with none or all of what he says/thinks.

They are people who have opinions. Do you compartmentalize all things where only those who are in the field can talk about that field? I'm sure you never discusses Iowa FB or BB being someone who isn't in the field, right?

And they are more than entitled to those opinions. I try to live by the thought of never being the first person to bring up three things; politics, religion, and sex. I have no problems rationally discussing anything, but those three topics are very volatile in the country these days so I avoid being the first to introduce those. Kerr appears to operate completely opposite of that idea. Totally his prerogative, but doesn't mean I have to like it or pay attention.

why do you care if Kerr brings up what he considers a threat to democracy? No one is forcing you to watch him being interviewed. I’m guessing it’s more about you not liking what he’s saying vs you not liking him stating his opinion.

To care what he says, so much, is pretty weird. We know what's up.

The bold part is accurate. He knows it but won’t admit it.

Don’t worry, James is playing & has been their best player. If we chose who represents team USA based off of people who don’t watch basketball, then your opinion may actually hold some weight. Now back you go to read Steve Deace.
Who is Steve Deace? And what does he have anything to do with this topic. Just my opinion and everyone has theres. Good Day SIR!!
 
The last two games. Yeah, let's leave off arguably the best player in the world from our Olympic team because I don't like him!
I have no idea if he's hte best player in the world still, but he's pretty damn good for a 39 year old. Scratch that. He's still pretty damn good.

Yes, still pretty damn good.

And definitely no longer the best player in the world.

But the best player in the world isn't on Team USA either

Spoiler Alert (for those taping)…





Just turned it on. Peter is lighting it up in his debut! 8 points and 3 rebounds in one half, 3 of 4 from the field including hitting both his three point attempts. By far top player off the bench. They just started the second half.

UPDATE: The Sudanese coach rode with Peter’s hot hand for all but the last 1:40+ seconds of the second half. His adjustments were spot on as they pulled away from a game Puerto Rico team with under a minute left now.

I'll take her over the guy who says he will end democracy in this country.
really? The democrats have turned socialist borderline communistic & JB wants to unconstitutionally shake up the Supreme Court. Now who is the real threat to democracy here? I'm sure you claim to be all "woke", but you need to wake up. Drinking the kool-aid... Woke is broke...

Not sure if you're being sarcastic, but if not F the democrat's socialistic agenda. You do realize the state of Iowa if very conservative Republican right? Common sense politics & not catering to the 1/2 of 1% far leftist idiots. This is what I do miss about Iowa after living in liberal California for 15 years now.

Apparently, someone doesn't understand the nuances of the English language. I'm sure you are going to trot out the "I'll be a dictator on the first day" as evidence of your statement. So sad. All one need do is read a bit further to understand the full meaning of the entire quote. Alas, it appears you support the party and the candidate that for months if not years assured the public that Joe Biden was as sharp as a tack, alert, and mentally capable of running the country and running for a second term as President. OOPS!

I’ll vote for the one who didn’t steal from their fundraiser for veterans. I also don’t want to vote for a convicted felon who is a sexual predator.

USA vs S. Sudan today at 1:45 pm on USA Network.

US team will be ready this time...give the points.

so you'll vote for the one who slept her way to every position she had in politics, married a Jewish man, yet is antisemitic? Supports abortion up to 9 months into pregnancy, giggles at every sign of stress, denies she was in charge of open borders allowing terrorists to freely cross our borders, defunded police, refused to prosecute crimes.... I could go on and on and on...

Yeah, we know you won’t be watching USA vs South Sudan today. Stick with the buzzwords you steal from your like-minded sheep.
