The thing to remember about Rivera outside of his being the greatest RP in MLB history is that he thought it was a good idea to electrify his swimming pool to keep his dogs from swimming in it.brian wrote: ↑Mon Sep 16, 2019 2:12 pmI saw some news updates and finally just got this. Did not realize Mariano Rivera is a Trumper. Gross.
ETA: I think Woods and Jordan probably would have gotten a Presidential Medal of Freedom at some point in their lives anyway. Rivera I wonder about, but I don't know whether that's because he's naturalized or what. Can't question his achievements on the field of course, but don't think we should be bestowing the Medal of Freedom on any Hall of Famer just because they like Trump.
A couple of his family members died from that decision.

I guess -- and I have a lot of questions but this is the biggest one -- how do the dogs know the water is electrified?

Re: Trump Admin Meltdown Thread Part III - A Democratic House
Maybe electrified water has a distinct odor dogs can smell after they shock themselves the first time? I got nothing otherwise.

Guys, you get all your dogs together next to the pool...then you throw some family members in and the dogs get the message.

Same. We just have always clashed, so we stopped discussing politics long ago. My wife tells me if there's something I should go like on my mom's Facebook page so I can ignore it there most of the time too.

Re: Trump Admin Meltdown Thread Part III - A Democratic House
I literally had to give up Facebook and nuke my profile in the meantime because the righty military friends I have are nothing but insufferable and I simply didn't want to interact with them or risk them screenshotting my takes and ratting me out.
When Obama was president, fair game openly saying shit about him. Trump becomes president and suddenly they become United States Code scholars copying and pasting rules that govern military members and their opinions.
And luckily in real life I surround myself with non Trumpers. I know others aren't so lucky.

Great leadership. What happens if the House holds someone in contempt? Can't Barr just ignore it or make the charge go away?
