Sounds much more like Sheryl Abrams or Beto O’Rourke. All are known as celebrity losers.

Who's Sheryl Abrams? You mean Stacey Abrams?

So we’ve gone from a Federal offense to now it’s immoral.

You made claims above that were false, like it being a scheduled campaign event and now you’re changing your argument. Neither of us knows all the facts or who pushed who or if Trump was even present when this all happened.

This was worthy of its own thread? What about the senile guy with his finger on the nuclear codes?

So it's both immoral and against the law, I was trying to get you to acknowledge that it was at least an immoral thing to do and you won't do it.

I didn't claim it was a scheduled event. In fact, I said the opposite - it was an invitation that the Trump people turned into a mock memorial for purely political purposes. That's gross, and watching him cosplay as a president doing official duties that didn't really exist was frankly weird. There's that word again.

IMO best Booster Club trip I ever attended.

I had reserved two tickets for Hallrox and I. She even took off that week of work. But my surgically repaired back is still an issue and we had to cancel. That opened up two tickets.

I strongly suggest anyone who can take off the time to do so. You will not be disappointed. Vinnie and Kevin always run incredible events with so much to do.

#25 Pirates Edge Albany on Final Minute PK, 2-1​

Jon Vignir Petursson tallies the game-winner with 49 seconds left after Sam Bjork got taken down in the box.


SOUTH ORANGE, N.J. – Sophomore Jon Vignir Petursson (Selfoss, Iceland) scored on a penalty kick with only 49 seconds remaining to give the No. 25 Seton Hall men's soccer team a dramatic 2-1 victory over Albany at Owen T. Carroll Field on Thursday evening.

In the final minute, senior Sam Bjork (Huskvarna, Sweden) was tripped while trying to play the ball directly in front of Albany goalkeeper Parker Kump, which resulted in a penalty shot. Vignir Petursson drilled the ball to the upper right corner of the goal and the Pirates came away with a dramatic, last-minute victory.

The Pirates (2-0-0) out-shot the Great Danes, 18-to-6, and had seven shots on goal, compared to just three for Albany. The Hall set the tempo in the first half, but play was close in the second with the Pirates out-shooting the Great Danes only 6-to-5.

HOW IT HAPPENED
The Pirates largely dominated the first half, controlling the pace and out-shooting the Great Danes, 12-to-1, in the first 45 minutes. Still, the game was scoreless until Smith broke through for The Hall with under 15 minutes prior to halftime. Bjork found Smith to the left of the goal with a high-arcing pass, and Smith headed the ball past a diving goalkeeper and into the upper right corner of the net. Originally ruled off-sides, the officials declared the goal for the Pirates after video review.

Off a throw-in, Ivar Orri Gissurarson scored the equalizer in the 41st minute on Albany's first shot of the game to send the contest into halftime tied at one goal apiece.

The second half was a significantly closer affair, with both goalkeepers making key saves to keep the game deadlocked. Seton Hall goalkeeper Soren Jensen (Nyborg, Denmark) stopped tough shots in the 59th and 67th minutes to keep the game even and set up the late heroics by Bjork and Vignir Petursson. In a final surge, Bjork was tripped in the box by an Albany defender just as he collided with Kump. For the second time in the game, video review played a key role as the foul call was upheld. Moments later, Vignir Petursson booted the game-winning goal.

anything is worthy of a thread based on how low the TwitterGuy has set the bar. Trump wiped with left hand might be next.

So funny, Biden dis mantles everything Trump did, but in Afghanistan he just follows Trumps lead.

One of Biden’s biggest mistakes was to follow Trump’s agreement with the Taliban to withdraw from Afghanistan. Both Presidents completely screwed up.

Looks like we have a lot of height which is good to have. Hopefully they all have "game" and can contribute! A lot of questions about this year's team in terms of who will start and be first off the bench. Also who can score the ball and play defense. Sha has a lot to do before the season starts and it is fast approaching. I can't wait!

Are we saying that all the players assigned a number have signed a LOI or does it include just verbals as well.

Worst of all I heard that Trump parked in a no parking zone and actually jaywalked across Arlington Boulevard. Is there no end to his flaunting the law? Meanwhile, our sitting President is sitting in a beach chair staring vacantly at the ocean. And you lefties will vote for more of this in November.

They dodged a bullet, almost giving up a tie on their home field to a pretty poor opponent. They almost kissed their ranking goodbye. Moving forward the team needs to work on not losing their defensive focus in the closing minute of the half or game. Such lapses have been a recurring problem for the past 4 years.
