DEBATE LIVE THREAD.

A man enters a Starbucks. He’s wearing an overcoat, felt hat and sunglasses. He is tall and thin; handsomely swarthy like Mahmoud Ahmadinejad. He walks to the counter where a high school senior is waiting to take his order.

Starbucks Girl: Good morning! (she perkily says). What can I get you?

ShuHoopsFan: Good morning?! What’s so good about it? Are you aware of all the bad going on in the world. Both sides!

Starbucks Girl: Well at least it’s a sunny day. Can I take your order?

ShuHoopsFan: Sunny?! Are you aware right now the UV rays are slowly poisoning your body? And what about Mars? Have you even given Mars a thought? The entire planet is devoid of atmosphere and the whole place is a desolate hellscape. Did you even think about that “Miss Sunny”?

Starbucks Girl: With any luck I think the clouds may roll in this afternoon. Would you like anything?

ShuHoopsFan: Clouds?! What about the clouds? Don’t even get me started on the clouds. They’re being seeded by George Soros and the rest of the rich global elites with nanoparticles that we inhale. When the time comes, they will activate the particles, turning all of us into zombies so we can do their bidding. RFK is the only one who nailed it. He’s a genius that one. Are you voting for RFK?

Starbucks Girl: No, I’m only 17. Sir, I need to help the other customers. Do you want anything?

ShuHoopsFan: You know what I want? I want the world to know I’ve got all the answers and everyone else is wrong. Including you, young lady. I’m never buying a coffee from this soulless corporate behemoth.

Starbucks Girl: Thanks and have a good day. Next! (sotto voce, heaven help me)

You want to ignore the Ray Epps thing but as you watch what he does and add the fact the FBI took him off their wanted list, it’s seems something is wildly off. For as much as he did, why aren’t they after him big time. Just makes one believe there was something done to not have enough security on purpose.

Of course you think that. It gives you an out to not blame Trump.
But fine... He was removed from the list because the FBI no longer needed information on him. He contacted the FBI on the tip line asking for help identifying people and told them that he was one of the people on the site. He had interviews with the FBI and he was not the only one removed from the list when the FBI no longer needed assistance.

For "as much as he did" - There are videos of him telling people to be calm and that the cops are on their side. Ryan Samsel (the guy he whispered to) said that Epps told him "Dude, relax, the cops are doing their job".

He also filed a defamation suit against Fox News. You know who wouldn't do that? People who do not want to open up discovery.

As a reborn Pac-12 seeks to fill out its roster moving forward, the best candidate is obvious: Go get Gonzaga

There is no school on the table to join the Pac-12 that would bring more positive feedback and a bigger boost than the Bulldogs

Butler is targeting Pacers assistant Connor McCaffery to fill Oden's rather large shoes​

https://www.cbssports.com/writers/kyle-boone/
By Kyle Boone

Butler assistant coach Greg Oden, a former No. 1 pick in the NBA Draft, told The Indianapolis Star he is leaving the Bulldogs. Oden was one of the first hires made by Thad Matta, Oden's coach when he played at Ohio State, after he took over the Bulldogs in 2022.

It's not yet clear where Oden will be headed, but Butler is reportedly targeting a familiar name to fill his position in Connor McCaffery, who is an assistant coach with the local Indiana Pacers. McCaffery's current gig with the Pacers is roughly a 20-minute drive from Hinkle Fieldhouse.

McCaffery has been with the Pacers for just over one year after spending six years playing at Iowa under his father, Fran McCaffery. Should he leave for the Bulldogs, he'd have the opportunity to coach his younger brother, Patrick, who is entering his first year with the program after transferring from Iowa, and also have a chance to stay close to girlfriend Caitlin Clark, who was the No. 1 pick in the 2024 WNBA draft by the Indiana Fever.

The McCaffery's youngest brother, Jack, is also committed to Butler as a 2025 recruit. He's ranked inside the top 150 players in his class and chose the Bulldogs early this year over options that included Virginia Tech and Wake Forest.

Oden was originally hired to Matta's staff in April 2022 as the director of basketball operations before being elevated into an assistant coaching role in conjunction with the NCAA's expansion of on-court instructors. He also has previous experience at his alma mater, Ohio State, where he served as graduate assistant during the 2021-22 season under then-coach Chris Holtmann.

Oden was selected No. 1 overall by the Portland Trail Blazers in the 2007 NBA Draft before a series of knee injuries ultimately cut short his promising career. He was the Naismith Player of the Year for the Buckeyes in his one-and-done season, where he averaged 15.7 points and 9.6 rebounds per game and helped lead the team to the national championship game.

Maybe I watch too many detective shows.

Appears the shooter had some knowledge of Trumps schedule (he doesn’t publish it publicly). He knew he was golfing yesterday and unless he was sitting in the bushes all day, how did he know when Trump was teeing off? And if he was in the bushes all day, how does the Secret Service miss that. Not suggesting a conspiracy but maybe the guy had befriended someone in the club…even a caddie that gave him information unwittingly.

And I guess I give government agencies more credit for having technology and using it. Wouldn’t it make sense to use a drone with thermal imagery when a President is playing golf or moving about a vast outdoor space?

Good lord.

Trump told people to come. When they breached the capital, he tweeted about Mike Pence not having courage. When his aides were asking him to do something to calm things down, he did nothing.

You just keep making excuses for that.

He also tweeted to stay peaceful. If his supporters overtook a police station or city streets this would be less of a big deal. As proof from that entire summer of love, mess with where you or I work no big deal, mess with where Pelosi or Schumer work it’s a catastrophe.

Unfortunately he is a marked man...and there are severe metally wounded people in society. This was an advanced hole and good on SS to execute proactively...

In a state of florida like georgia and texas guns are gonna gun because of the looseness of any legislation. With that said will be interested to know history of weapon...ammo procured timeline etc

There is so unknown about this guy. Lone wolves are very difficult to track and to uncover. What pops to mind is that this guy is from Hawaii? Ha has some connections to North Carolina. How, where and when did he buy that AR-15?

The range abs accuracy of these weapons makes it far too easy for like this to commit these crimes.

And damn we have enough of the political divide, this just makes everything worse.

Definitely seems like some planning went into it. You don’t just fly in from Hawaii and hope Trump happens to be playing golf that weekend.

Another thing that doesn’t make any sense, is that he was arrested from barricading himself into a business with a “weapon of mass destruction”. Military grade machine gun. Then he gets arrested years later, for having an illegal concealed carry….no jail time. How was somebody who was convicted of a crime like that able to own a weapon afterwards, and not serve any jail time for an offense like that?
