So now we send six masked ICE agents to arrest this Tufts PhD student (Masters at Columbia) here since 2018 on a student visa and whisk her 1500 miles away. Because she wrote a pro-Palestinian op-ed a year ago? A) Is she a criminal and/or gang member that I thought was the ICE focus? No. B) are you telling me that ICE has gotten rid of all the criminal migrant and are down to this level of "bad guys"?

How about we/they just warn these protesters. Maybe haul them in for a day to scare them. "Look, any more of this activism, protesting, etc. and you will be deported immediately"? This is becoming Orwellian.


And Greenland. Are you F-ing kidding me?

President Donald Trump told NBC News on Saturday: "We'll get Greenland. Yeah, 100 percent."

"I don't take anything off the table," Trump told NBC News on Saturday, when probed on whether he would authorize the use of military force to take control of Greenland.

There is a "good possibility that we could do it without military force," he said.

WTF has America become in a short 2 months? If Greenland is so important, have an agreement to bolster our existing military presence. You know we have bases in countries all over the world but we aren't threatening to take them over. Absolutely F-ing insane. We are the new Russia.

Is it 20 kids in the portal this month?

Is it time to sign only kids with 1 year of eligibility left? Sign them after spring ball so you’re as sure as you can be that you’ve got them. Bring in 100 new dudes for fall camp and get them ready for the season.

At this point you’re losing so many kids and wasting so many reps what’s the point? You cannot start all over every spring and fall. Just get all seniors. Season over? Tell the staff you’ll see them in May when recruiting starts.

This morning at 8:03 I got 2 mails. First one was from WSU Athletic Department with info about my opportunity to upgrade or relocate my season tickets. The second email was from the effing husky ticket office, saying that tomorrow I can upgrade my tickets. WTF is up with that? I suspect that some supplier/contractor that WSU uses for ticket processing has cross contaminated some data bases with that shit from the huskies.

So I called the WSU Ticket Office and asked WTH was up with that. Gal didn't know, asked her supervisor about it. Came back and said they were aware of a problem and asked me to forward the email to them. Wanted my buddy to do the same, as I found out he had received the same spam. Anybody else got that crap in their inbox? If so, you might want to also forward it to athletictickets@wsu.edu for their attention to the issue.

I hope we hear UNLV, Tulane and Memphis are coming. Best markets and best brands.

Now it appears that will have to apply to NY State Attorney General Letitia James. Her Royal Highness has now been referred to the US DOJ for mortgage fraud, making false statements on financial documents. Anyone remember her prosecuting someone for those crimes? Maybe karma is coming home to roost?

This may be fun to watch......

The only thing I see being liberated so far today is $20-30 grand of my retirement fund. I'll check the carnage tomorrow. Luckily a big chunk is in very safe stuff.

So tariffs. I'm no expert, so please educate me. I always come here thirsting for knowledge. Although I often leave still thirsty.

-Every economist says that tariffs hurt the buyer. So since we have a trade deficit, and if reciprocal tariffs are being levied (they are), aren't the tariffs going to hurt the US more than other countries? Hmmmm

-You know there is an easy solution to the trade deficit. Quit buying cheap shit from countries like China, buy American even if it costs a couple of bucks more. Problem? Try finding a shirt that is made in America at any price. Greedy companies shipped their manufacturing overseas to capitalize on the slave wages and lack of environmental standards of other countries. But you all know that.

But then there are autos. I admit that I drive a Subaru (and a Chevy Silverado), but my Subaru may have been made in Indiana. So you don't need to buy a Kia or Toyota pickup or a BMW. With cars and especially trucks you CAN buy American at a competitive price. I spit on every Tundra I see. Especially the ones with Trump stickers.

Resources like oil, electricity - different cats, but hey. Either pay the going price or quit driving so much and put on a sweater. But it's more complicated.

I’ve soured on Gameday in recent years but WSU will forever be tied to Gameday and Corso was the face of it. It’s good to see him retire, he’s been little more than the show mascot for the past few years.

I believe Sydney has 4 years of eligibility left. Let’s bring her home

I was thinking about the ludicrous negotiations that Trump's people are having with Russia that don't involve either Ukraine or Europe and I find it ironic that a President (and his fanbase) that were so critical of us leaving Afghanistan have no problem with selling out an ally now in the hopes of making a few bucks on Ukraine's Natural Resources and currying favor with an autocratic dictator. Our word and treaties apparently only count when the other team is the bad guy in the situation.

Embarrassing

According to the SR, the jobs still open. Is that just to keep Potter out of the portal or does he have a legit shot and or Zevi is struggling?

I used to watch recruiting videos but haven’t been wasting brain space on that lately. Can Potter play? If he can, I understand why you wouldn’t want to showcase that for the portal vultures on a televised scrimmage.

No TV and not really a scrimmage but more of an open practice with some “live” play, apparently to keep the “vultures” away.

I’ve never made it to Pullman for a Spring game and definitely don’t see me going to this. Anyone going?

Pullman second only to Bozeman (which is boggling to me).
