So I roll out to do my errands, go to the bank and vote. Polling place enroute to the bank. I'm stopped at the traffic light, polling place to my left, I look over--- NO LINE! (lotta cars, everywhere, though...??). So I go to the bank, am headed back home, gonna shoot on in and vote real quick-like. Park the car in a pharmacy parking lot adjacent to the polling place. Start to roll on in... oops, found the line. They moved the entryway to the rear of the building for this election. The line, while I couldn't actually see the end of it, appears to snake through an entire residential subdivision. We ought to be able to negotiate amongst ourselves, cancelling each other's votes out, and then we can all just sit here on our keesters and talk about more important things like this week's game against the Vikes. Couple of problems with my plan, I admit... I'd lie like a dog and tell you I didn't vote when I actually did, but that's just me... :thumbleft: Seriously, I'm trying to figure out what would be the best time to go- looks like there isn't going to be one... BTW, I didn't want to "bump" the Political thread we had going... by now 99 44/100ths of us know how crazy we all are on that one. :wickedfart:

This is easy to answer........."YES" and "YES!"LOLOLOL!!!!

I voted about a week and a half ago. Since we moved here 2 years ago, i knew i wasn't registered here. So i stopped at the town hall and registered. There was a couple there that were voting already, so i asked if i could too, and they said "YES!" So i voted, and brought my wife in to vote a few days later. I don't have to stand in line today!

You don't have to stand in line to vote in Wisconsin. I filled out about three dozen absentee ballots and mailed them in.

15 minutes they said. Oh, initially very optimistic, pleasantly surprised, etc. 45 minutes later, they hand me an index card with my name pre-printed on it. That was line number one. "Go to the end of that line, sir." This would be line number two. 35 minutes in that line, in order that they can write a number on the index card they gave me in line number one. "OK, sir, now you need to go to that line." Line number three, where you sign your name in order to vote, which since Christ was a corporal was always line number one (and only)... 20 minutes in that line, in the meantime, voting machines sitting idle 90% of the time, because these complete friggin' morons have emplaced 3 solid bottlenecks in the system.... AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! Idiots!
Unless, of course, it was a subtle voter-suppression tactic drummed up by me fellow Republicans, in which case, I say, Brilliant!

I also got to bitch out my incumbent state senator for leading the charge for the now in effect smoking ban in my state. I explained that I'm originally from Wisconsin, and that he's damn lucky we traded Brett Favre, because any idiot knows you cannot root for a Brett Favre lead team without smoking at least a pack of cigarettes in the bar. He laughed. I laughed. I voted for him.

Zero2Cool (39m) : NFL thought it would get more attention week preceding Super Bowl.
Zero2Cool (39m) : Yes, the Pro Bowl. It was played Sunday before Super Bowl from 2010-2022
packerfanoutwest (40m) : pro bowl
Zero2Cool (44m) : From 2010 to 2022, it was played on the Sunday before the Super Bowl
Zero2Cool (44m) : They moved it to the BYE week before Super Bowl several years ago.
packerfanoutwest (50m) : it was always after the SB.....
beast (10h) : Though I stop following pro bowl years ago
beast (10h) : I thought the pro game was before the Super Bowl?
packerfanoutwest (10h) : ok now for the Pro Bowl Game in Hawaii
TheKanataThrilla (11h) : If I was Philly I would try to end it instead of punting it
Mucky Tundra (11h) : VICTORY! We have (moral) victory!
TheKanataThrilla (12h) : Hey they mentioned that we 3-peted
Mucky Tundra (12h) : seems to me the 49ers should have traded Aiyuk when they had the chance
Mucky Tundra (12h) : if the Eagles get it down to the 1, do they Tush Push or give it to Barkley?
TheKanataThrilla (12h) : 49ers have a money problem if they want to sign their QB
Mucky Tundra (12h) : Wait for real? Didn't he just get an extension two years ago?
Zero2Cool (12h) : 49ers gonna trade Deebo. Interesting
TheKanataThrilla (12h) : Replays always never seem to show the holdings
TheKanataThrilla (12h) : Great throw by Hurts
Mucky Tundra (12h) : Where Carter falls prey to bad off the field influences (to be clear, not saying he'd clip someone though)
Mucky Tundra (12h) : Had Carter not gone to Philly were they already had a lot of old college friends, he ends up in a similar spot to Aaron Hernandez
Mucky Tundra (12h) : I think some of his coaches told scouts to stay away
Mucky Tundra (12h) : the street racing incident+conditioning and motivation problems
beast (13h) : Then Carter was street racing, where the other car crashed and people died... and other teams were scared to pick Carter for some reason
beast (13h) : I think the Saints traded up, giving their next year 1st to the Eagles, and then they sucked and Eagles got the 10th overall pick
packerfanoutwest (13h) : wtf Barkley?
TheKanataThrilla (13h) : Getting Carter and Nolan Smith in the first round in 2023 was pretty darn good
Mucky Tundra (13h) : for some reason i'm thinking of a draft where the Eagles where in the mid 20s and a top player fell all the way to them
TheKanataThrilla (13h) : I think so. I would need to look it up. Think it may have been Carolina's pick.
Mucky Tundra (13h) : i'm not sure who i'm thinking of now
Mucky Tundra (13h) : oh fuck me i messed that up
Zero2Cool (13h) : Jordan Davis was 13th overall
Zero2Cool (13h) : Carter was 9th overall
Zero2Cool (13h) : Eagles had 15th and 10th selections, moved to 13 and 9 to get Davis and Carter back to back
Zero2Cool (13h) : Eagles traded up for Carter, didn't they?
Mucky Tundra (13h) : Obviously he was a huge risk but getting a top 5 talent on the dline in the mid 20s is fortuitous
Mucky Tundra (13h) : Jalen Carter falling into their lap certainly helps
TheKanataThrilla (13h) : And we could only wish to have this type of D
TheKanataThrilla (13h) : It's not like Philly has had low draft picks, but has managed to get themselves a top notch pass rush. We spend so much draft capital of D
packerfanoutwest (13h) : another crap halftime show
TheKanataThrilla (13h) : I think it is over, but then I think of Atlanta and want Philly to go in with the same intensity in the second half
Mucky Tundra (13h) : And with a Pass Rush that might as well be on a milk cartoon and no Jaire
Martha Careful (13h) : I cant help but feel good about how well the Packers D played in Philly during the playoffs
Mucky Tundra (13h) : this game is over
Mucky Tundra (14h) : This might be the kill shot here
Mucky Tundra (14h) : oh that's such a bad penalty for KC after getting the 3rd down stop
TheKanataThrilla (14h) : Philly DL has come to play
TheKanataThrilla (14h) : Ceoper DeJean with the INT scored...bad memories of draft night
Mucky Tundra (14h) : ok scratch that
Mucky Tundra (14h) : Game feels like last years Super Bowl: 49ers started off in control, moved the ball well but didn't have much of a lead to show for it
