Hey 82gradDLSdad: you still haven't answered my question. What are you going to do in the voting booth if the 2024 nominees end up being Biden & Trump?

Are you going to:

a) "hold your nose" and vote for one of the 2 major party nominees;
b) write-in Vivek Ramaswamy; or
c) simply not vote ?

Big C, Rick and Ilsa may always have Paris, but the BI community will always have this:



This photo you took at Haas Pavilion last season made you the Abraham Zapruder of Cal basketball history. You are the GOAT and now immortal. I think I speak for the entire community here when I say, We love you.

Final point: Since I've only attended public schools, I can't imagine having to "apply" or be "wait-listed" to a high school. Goodness!

I don't know. It looks like some frames are missing and some may have been rearranged to make it look like Cal won.

There's a ripple effect taking place up and down the chain of command at Redstone Arsenal in Alabama that critics say is the deepening fallout from Sen. Tommy Tuberville’s gambit to use his power to wage a culture-war campaign over abortion policy. https://t.co/EmslLORN2y

I heard she went to Fresno State which is tougher than UC Berkeley, with grads generally smarter than those of the UC system .

I knew all those insults about Oregon and ASU on this site were not serious. Nothing about our school compared to community college or ASU that is an indication of intelligence. UC Berkeley is a safety school for those who really wanted to attend Utah but were not smart enough.

Well, the posters here are the exception because we are making a real difference with each post here to make sure that our beliefs are translated into action. I was not referring to those here but instead to those who just take potshots behind a computer screen without risking anything in their own lives. Should have been clearer.

I couldn't begrudge Carondolet. They filled their classes with qualified Catholic girls first. That year there were more Catholic applicants than spots. Despite my Catholic upbringing I became a non believer and raised my kids as such. DLS took a certain percentage of non Catholic kids in each class, probably to fill out their sports teams. My son came home after the first day and said, "it's like a cult, huh?'. What could I say.

I noticed you making many mocking posts like these (often without context or your own perspective since you probably don't want to do the dirty work of actually using your own words to mock others). There are only two reasons you do this:

1. By mocking about half of your fellow Americans, you feel better about yourself. You don't mock the other half since you need a place to set your pedestal. An easy way to feel superior that has nothing to do with you. Same key driver for bullies, racists, other bigots, etc. Rise in your own mind by pushing down others.

2. You are concerned that 50 percent of your fellow Americans are coming to this unfortunate conclusion from behaviors you would like to promote. You realize there may be a blind spot for you, a diverse point of view that you may not have considered that is driving this misplaced view by the right even if your baser nature wants to feel your side and only your side is ever right. Realizing that diversity can get messy, you are trying to have an open mind and understand how we can bridge the gap.

Who are we kidding. All this is about feeling superior. Nothing about introspection or diversity. Nothing about understanding. That is politics now. And that is why we will each get more extreme with blind cult worship for our respective party with perpetual war on the other side. We will never concede a single point to the other side.

"I heard she went to Fresno State ……"

As did a few Cal hoop players after splitting:
Tremaine Fowlkes, Shantay Legans, Dominic McGuire and at least one or two more that left our program and ended up Bulldogs. All during the Ben Braun Era, I believe.
