    That's John Morgan. I'm for calling mediocrity mediocrity.
    Hey, he'd have looked great if football games only had one half. ;)

    My daughter in law evacuated to Mississippi where her father lives. I told her to be sure to fill up before she left. Her answer was "do you think I'm stupid, I filled up this morning". Anybody who got on I-75 with less than a full tank was an idiot.

    As for DeSantis exactly what did you expect him to do. Even CNN could come up with nothing bad to say about his effort to meet the last minute demand.

    I can’t do it. Napier putting together a single half in year three against a relatively weak opponent just doesn’t move the needle for me. I feel like he has set the bar so low we’re like a parched man ecstatic for a drop of water.

    Oh it didn't move the needle for me at all either. But it was at least not a Trainwreck to watch

    Here's my problem here; I actually don't know enough to critique RdS on this. I'll be honest - I guess he did a good enough job, but I don't have a strong opinion bc I don't really know.

    BUT........

    He is such a vile, hateful piece of ***t that I'm not going to give him credit when he deserves it. I'll just stay quiet. He had plenty of opportunities to govern for the people, but he just chose to be a vile Trumpy *$$hole. He chose Trumpy performative theater, and the politics of hate over solving problems that would help people.

    So, praise Meatball Ron? Nah. Go pound sand, Trumpy Ron. Tug on your vile buddy governing Texas.

    But I'll be sure to say something positive when the Gov. of MD does something well. It's not a partisan thing. It's a common decency thing.

    If it makes you feel better, he made an idiotic comment today that compared the people who believe that the government controls the weather to people who believe in climate change. So he's still an incompetent buffoon.

    actually, I was serious. You showed a gif of DeSantis laughing like a goofball hyena. But by your response I can see you thought that was clever in some way.

    If you live in Florida…and don’t like hurricanes. It’s a “you” problem.

    Yeah, because most people in Florida like hurricanes. It's one of the reasons they moved there.

    "If you live in California and don't like wildfires, it's a 'you' problem." I mean, yes, hurricanes are part of living in Florida. But are there people who actually like them? "Oh yes, I get to evacuate because a hurricane is coming. Woooooohoooooo!" Or maybe it's "I'm not evacuating due to the hurricane. I get to spend the next few days without electricity in hot and swamp ass Florida. Wooooooooohooooooo!"
