I’ve read all 7 of Jack Carr’s novels. If you like an absurd amount of info on modern weapons systems, revenge scenarios, and heavy duty violence, …. Jack is the man. He’s a former “operator” and really knows his stuff. Start with the TERMINAL LIST.

There was an AMC series a while back called Rubicon. That was a good series in the same genre.

Russia creates plan to divide Ukraine up into three countries.

My position:

Ukraine should be the single voice in approving ANY plan put forth by anyone for its future. Countries are fine in determining what level of support or non-support they offer Ukraine, but it should be Ukraine that makes any decision on its future. It is Ukrainians that are dying in its war with Russia. Not Americans or Europeans or any other citizens. So, if Ukraine choses to continue the fight, that is their choice. It should not be our concern as far as loss of life by Ukrainians in THEIR fight for a free Ukraine. It should not be our concern as far as loss of life by Russians in THEIR fight to annex Ukraine into Russia.

We should simply determine our level of support in helping Ukraine achieve an end THEY deem acceptable.

Now, I also support Ukraine in their fight to remain a free country. I believe that we should not meter out our support of weapons in dribs and drabs. We should be all-in. I do not believe the threat of Ukraine remaining free is so great as to result in Russia starting a World War over it. Its threat of launching nuclear missiles and expanding the war to include other nations is empty. If they did, it would be the end of Russia. The threat of Ukraine remaining a free state aligned with the West is not a threat worth causing their own annihilation. We (the West) should simple send a loud and clear message to Russia that we are 100% behind Ukraine's desire to remain free and we will allow Ukraine to use the weapons we provide to use however they deem necessary to drive Russia out of their land. Take the gloves off. I believe that is the quickest path to Russia's acquiescence and exit from Ukraine. THAT is how the bloodshed stops.

It is obvious to me that the current administration's plans are to prolong the war in Ukraine so as to feed our own Military-Industrial complex. This war is being used by our government and war fighting industry. Trump can stop this by opening the flood gates of support to Ukraine and stop Russia in its tracks.

Joey Galloway suggests Indiana should consider benching their starting QB vs Indiana.

My gripe with the SEC schmucks and ESPNalities as they tear down Indiana is NOT that Indiana's schedule has been daunting. It's that Indiana has been annihilating foes. Top 25 teams don't annihilate every foe.

Only Michigan was less than a 14 point win. Michigan will sneak into a bowl at 6-6. Other probable bowl teams they beat...UCLA, Washington, Nebraska.

They aren't sneaking past average teams. They are dominating. That's what top 10 teams do.

I think they'll put up a fight in Columbus this weekend...and that should solidify their worthiness. (But ESPN will probably try to use it to say that Ohio State isn't that good and Texas should be higher...rather than admit that Indiana is just a very good team this year.)

I agree totally with your post. If IU were beating mediocre SEC teams by 30 and 40 points, and there are many medoocre and downright bad SEC teams this season, these same commentators would be touting them for the National Championship. Like I've posted previously, if PSU and IU had a steady diet of Kentucky, Auburn, Miss State, Florida and even Vanderbilt, do these schills really believe that their records would be any different than what they are now?

Drexel dual - Sun, Nov 17

Facundo is almost like a "Mason Manville" type situation for me and regardless if he is eventually replaced in the lineup I think he really needs to stay in State College Personally, I think he's one of the best freestylers on the team and his future should be the NLWC. It's weird that we are talking about him being replaced but I possibly see future Senior Level medals in his future.

Edit...Yes, I know Manville was a Greco-Roman guy. Lol

My guess is the plan is to redshirt Connor Mirasola, but for the sake of discussion, if he blows through the field and beats Cochran and Barr, would that change anything?

I don't think it matters if he blows through the competition. My sense from listening to Cael is that his first priority when deciding on redshirting his wrestlers is to do what the athlete prefers. All indications are that Connor prefers to redshirt alongside his brother. The second priority is if the team really really needs points to win the Natty. This year we don't need them so I can't see Cael pushing him to not redshirt for this reason either.
