Clones, shapeshifters are too tricksy.

Whereas Maryland (and northern VA for that matter) has essentially become, D.C., the suburbs.

Let's just keep politics out of this, Pariah. Craftmanship vs Artistry

I don't know German chocolate is the one chocolate I don't really like.

I think I damaged my nose and lungs during it, but that is more because at work they've been moving things around, and today was the day the evidently decided to go crazy on cleaning the mold that was found why doing that. THe odor of all manner of cleaning chemical permeated the building.

Well, apart from still trying to figure out the difference between witchcraft and sorcery, I will go with wizards since they are more known. Dr. Doom vs Sauron

Iowa, Mass had the Kennedys, Iowa just has cornfields. 3d6 vs d20

That would be interesting to know. I dont think in 1977, despite the turmoil of the previous decade, that they thought about making sure their movies had the proper amount of minorities. I dont think "PC" was quite what it was then, compared to what it is now.

No, doubt evil there, I just see it with Antifa involved Bad vs Evil. Antifa is less of a threat, but I still see it as a danger, if allowed to grow. It might be enemy of my enemy is my friend right now. But, I worry it might be the Stalin we deal with to defeat their Hitler. Nothing I hate more than Nazis, but in our rush to stop one group, I don't want to underestimate the next threat.

Yeah, no doubt who is ahead of the game. Just that Antifa seems to have been at, or crossing the line in their own right in earlier protests this year that caused some dust ups. So, I cant say they are more solution than problem at this point. Course, my mind is trying to figure out a lot of this crap in the last week. I got used to with the old Tea parties from a few years ago, that "racist protests" = one idiot in the back with a Confederate or Nazi flag. That I took a lot for granted. I let this incident be a boy who cried wolf on me until the worst of it happened. ANd I am still a little mad at myself for that. Sorry, I underestimated it and all. So, I really want to make sure I get right from now on with both Antifa and the Alt-Right.

Hey, I can beat DT, its just he always brings 1,500 of his cousins with him to a fight. Damn zerg rush and smother tactics

Ewoks. Internet trolls, have more redeeming qualities. But, Ewoks taste better. Sundogs vs Moondogs

I just know we'd be much better off if both went away. I really wouldn't know how to grade the 2. (The former obviously acquired quite the negative yardage last weekend, of course. So they indeed are quite ahead, behind, whatever) But, I don't want to kid myself into believing either serves a positive purpose. Note: I find Antifa kind of ironic, in that a group who names themselves Anti-fascists, essentially, seems so.........fascists.

SO, Australia has found a way to make things run smoother.

Either, or both, both at the same time, I'm not picky, I'm hungry now rapier vs katana vs claymore vs big stick

No problem, I can be a little too picky on my baseball dates as it is.

Hmm, not promising, on that research. The White Sox won the 1917 WS. The Red Sox won the 1918 one (for both it would be their last 20th century win coincidentally) So either the date or the Sox are wrong., Edit: Likely the date, 1917 pitted the White Sox vs Giants, Red Sox and Cubs in 1918.

DC (comics) vs DC (capital)

CT, my aunt married a man from there.

Well, Trump has always struck me as coming from the Steinbrenner school of management (hell, he even had a TV show proving that point)

Yeah, I probably shouldn't have mentioned it. I kind of realized after the fact, unfortunately (when I came back after posting to this thread tonight, I realized to my myself "you idiot"). Especially, bad considering I have been the more.......vocal towards it. Apologies for that. (I feel like, I fall for it everytime)

Hmm, that would be an interesting question. I think the NFL doing was more recent. But, it seems baseball has done it since I've been around at least. I know in NBA Mahmoud Abdul-Rauf protested in the 90s, so it was probably around at least since then. ANd of course during the award ceremony in the Olympics they play the winner's anthem. (which I actually feel should be honored regardless of your feeling towards said country, if nothing else respect the athlete's hard work, and ideally politics shouldnt get mixed with the Olympics, yeah I know fantasy world, but at least try)

AKA The Devil's Math (or is that Calculus, or is it both? I'm going with both)

To 1) Maybe, though my patience has worn a bit thin on protests at the moment. So, I wont exactly be motivated to watch football till October (baseball season) for sure now To 2) I imagine it'll come down to quality of player when it happens, as per usual on these things Note: If one wanted to get "clever", you could go with "if they cant stand during the anthem then they are obviously too injured to play stand point". Not that that wouldn't be quite the asshattery, in its own right.

JUst noticed it now, someone is invoking the Sonics aren't they
