How can it be the Donald looks taller than Bruce? I would think a decathlon champion would be taller.
He's not.
He's at least 6-02 and more like 6-02.50

I hung out with Bruce in the lobby of the Valley River Inn late one night at the 2012 Olympic Trials in Eugene.

My buddy was a pole vault coach and we did a road trip up to Eugene to support former Cal pole vaulter Allison Stokke. My buddy's Dad had coached Bruce in the pole vault at SJSU. Bruce was the most affable, humble, gracious, guy. He was telling stories about what it was like to room with Steve Prefontaine and 400m runner Wayne Collett (Silver) in Munich in '72. He wasnt even talking about himself. He was talking about Pre the whole time.

The photo below shows him with former WR holder and Olympic Medalist in the Decathlon, Ashton Eaton from the 2012 Olympic Trials. Eaton was a 5-time NCAA Champion for Oregon and the second decathlete to break the 9,000 point barrier. He won Gold in London 2012.

Eaton is 6-01.


Great story.
I can't imagine being dealt the hand of gender flipping in life.
The thing I don't get about it with Jenner is that we think of decathletes as the ultimate macho men. How was he able to harness all the testosterone and psychological fight while feeling like a woman inside. Shows what little I understand about it all. I'll have to read his book, which I assume addresses to some degree.

I can totally see Bruce being as you described. I remember him from the 70's. Seemed way cool, down to earth.

She's so beautiful she even derailed Ricky Fowler's career. He'll have to sign some mega-million dollar contract with the LIV tour.
She has a Master's from Cal..
Rickie became a Dad last November.
Life for him these days is full of "distractions" . . . but most enjoyable ones.

I'm rooting for him to make a big comeback!

D'Angelo: Rickie Fowler's game remains work in progress, but new daughter adds perspective (yahoo.com)



I hope he has a great comeback too. They both seem like good people. Stooke was signing autographs at a Cal football game and I did a doubletake. She caught me leering, I mean looking, and flashed a huge smile. She could have given me the "put your teeth back in, grandpa" look but she didn't. I appreciated that.

All I see is a weak and very belated effort by TPUSA to try and defuse the controversy about Nazi flags flying at their conference. Nobody in the video said anything to convince me they weren't genuine right wing Nazi Patriots there to try and get their views across to people more likely to agree with them than most. The "George Soros paid me" comment was clearly trolling. All I got out of it was that a few attendees were smart enough to realize that flying Nazi flags wasn't a good look and they were right. Most of the people in the videos just didn't like them wearing masks, though around them, I'd probably want as much Covid protection as I could get.

Good point. You're making a lot of sense. There's no point in trying to have a serious discussion with him. I try not to respond to him, but sometimes I can't help taking a few swings at the piñata.

I didnt know that MTG was PRO SAUDI.

She probably thinks that 9/11 was an "inside" job by the DEEP STATE.

Thanks to Trump, senate is looking less bad. It's been a long time since we've had senate candidates this bad. You have to go back to Kelly Loeffler in Georgia 2 years ago lol. Georgia Republicans are really couging it.

Remember years ago *checks notes * last week when GOPers pretended to have a problem with Saudi Arabia and criticized Biden for a fist bump greeting with MBS? Trump continues to do business with MBS and is milking his political connections for all he can. Somehow conservatives see no problem with this. As long as there isn't a fist bump of course.

I decided to check out Ron Flip Flipkowksi's twitter account for fun and quickly realized it's a 100% pure TDS account focused on Trump and MAGA and nothing more. He's forever living in 2016.

Was the prince invited? There were some nice door prizes being given away.

Left wing corporate media had problems with the fist bump and ignored the fact that Biden traveled to Saudi Arabia to beg for oil.

If Trump admits he lost the election and says he won't run again, we can all stop living in 2016.

Republicans think it's quaint that Democrats think Republicans care about getting caught being hypocritical.

They have an appointed for life rubber stamp in the SCOTUS so their attitude is "F@uck you, try doing something about it."

In this system you vote for someone or against someone. We've had six years of disastrous government so it's going to be against but Biden doesn't inspire the dislike Trump does which means the Dems will continue to spin their "our democracy is at stake from fascists " fantasies because they have nothing else. They need Trump badly.
Unless Biden can turn around the economy by the middle of 2024, I generally agree. There are two other rays of hope for democrats though. First, I think Trump is almost guaranteed to run. But, if for some reason he doesn't, he is likely to be the GOP's worst enemy by trashing their nominee. He's not going to go out and stump for DeSantis or Nikki Haley or whomever. Anyone who thinks he will selflessly step aside for the "good" of our nation, the GOP or any other reason is incredibly naive.

The GOP is pretty much pinning its hopes on Trump being successful at subverting state by state election systems.
I think of it like this. If you want to destroy this Republic and Democracy then you will vote for the Criminal in Chief who is still trying to overturn the 2020 election. If you want to keep this Republic and Democracy intact you will vote for somebody who loves this country more than themselves. I may not want to see a Republican in the White House in 2024 but, as long as it is a Republican who understands the value of our system of government I can tolerate it until the next election.


Which politician loves the country more than themself? I'll settle for anyone close to normal. Give me two of them to vote for and then I'll start looking into their 'details'.

Liz Cheney.

Her leading the Jan. 6th Committee isnt doing her any good in her state of Wyoming.
She's down by 22 percentage points to Harriet Hageman according to the first independent, in-state poll.
Wyoming loves Trump and Cheney's fixation on getting Trump is very unpopular.

Is Liz Cheney finished? (yahoo.com)




Liz Cheney is receiving big support from fellow Democrats, Dick Cheney and Kevin Costner.

It was a widespread consensus of liberals from 2001-2008 that Dick Cheney wasn't just misguided or politically wrong, but was a tyrannical monster, a war criminal and deeply corrupt goon (Halliburton).


Do they ever ask themselves why he now harbors so much contempt for Trump?
