    mmqp got a reaction from Liam McPoyle in Biden/Harris   
    He's definitely no wordsmith. But that is fine with me. I'd rather have someone tell me the truth with rough language than have someone lie to me with flowery language.
    It reminds me of that hurricane a couple years back that came through NC and he was saying something about how it was going to be very wet and very windy.. and the media ate him up. But once people started drowning because they chose not to evacuate, then somehow that was his fault as well.

    Ultraviolet blood irradiation (UBI) is that procedure's name.  It's fallen out of use with other medicines, but deserves a look for antiviral properties at least.  
     
    Trump's not a doctor, and he does a very poor job at articulately expressing himself.  That being said, he wasn't just spitting into the wind on these treatments.

    "I usually don’t get political on Facebook, but I have to say something about President Trump’s statement about using a type of disinfectant to cleanse the lungs in COVID patients. Now, some are thinking household cleaners and he’s crazy, but...when my Daddy had pneumonia complicated by black lung in 2016, they injected a type of DISINFECTANT into his lungs to wash out the infection. It was inserted through his chest tube and into the lungs. We had to turn/roll him over every 20 minutes to slosh the stuff around. And these pictures show you what came out. Infection. Over a liter of infection came out of his lungs. The last picture is a regular water bottle beside a Liter bottle for perspective to show how much they drained from his lungs. Our President may not have used medical terms, but he knew what he was saying about this.
    Lung Flushing is the technical term."

    Thing is, there are at least two different disinfectants found in vaccines, among many other nefarious ingredients. But cant let that get in the way of these leftists taking it out of context. Keep in mind the supposed "wisdom" we have to deal with when it comes to leftists. This is a religion to them.

    Nothing symbolizes the progressive push of the Democrat Party in 2020 more than nominating an old, rich, white guy for President and a police advocate for Vice-President.

    Tulsi lit her up already. Anyway, why are you so racist as to love a woman who put thousands of black men in prison with long sentences for things such as having an ounce of weed? And kept people in prison longer for the cheap labor they provided. Then laughed about it when confronted about it.

    I agree ,, adopted by schools in SWVA would be much better, but that wont  happen any time soon.  Several SWVA schools adopted soccer several years ago when it was hot, and some now wished they hadn't . Many schools have trouble filling a roster. National Soccer did a much better job of back in the day of " selling the sizzle" ,, Lacrosse not so much, although they say its one of the fastest growing sports. A little back story to back up my HS club first theory, and there are a lot of details ill have to skip or ill run out of room. VA HIGH started a club team maybe 4 years ago and in 2 years it folded because they couldn't replenish the cupboard, we absorbed it and added others to start our RAGE CLUB HS. Most of our youth move up to other HSs,, John Battle, Abingdon, Tenn High, and some to VA HIGH, but not many. It was a bad business model.  My brother in law started a club team at Science Hill, same problem, but they now have traction, and are doing pretty well,, also heard Dobyns Bennett Kingsport starting-- they should be ok. TENN HIGH,, same thing, their trying, but getting numbers is tuff. Chucky Doak in/near Greenville TN started and folded, same problem, they asked Greenville HS about starting, Greenville AD told them to take a hike because he didn't want to screw up the State Champ Football program. I know,spoke to, and have good relations with all Washington County VA HSs,, same story. Was told the travel to Roanoke and cost was too much.  Small SWVA ADs and Principals will not adopt lacrosse,,, their just not into it,, the bigger schools, maybe, but its a long way off, and not until they can see a local club team getting traction. Waiting on schools could take 20 years, or never. Club Lacrosse is the way to get the ball rolling in SWVA, its just like travel Baseball, and we all know how many travel BB teams are crossing VA every weekend. Need someone to start a team near Wytheville /Bluefield !!!
    Been to Klockner several times to watch UVA Lacrosse. If your not sure about this whole Lacrosse thing, go to a college game. VT has a great club team, a lot of our youth go there every summer for camp. Also ODAC has several teams.
    WAHOOWA,, have several in the family, married one, daughter heading up for first year next month, or not, who knows at this point.

    In the 2012 Quarterfinals, UVA was tied 6-6 against Notre Dame heading into the 4th and just collapsed early.  We fought back in it and I believe had an offsides doom us after we had scored a couple to get back in it.  We had a habit of letting teams go on long runs toward the end of the Starsia tenure.
     
    When I was there, our rugby team was more a drinking team with a rugby problem.  Had a couple of friends that lived near the Mad Bowl, and they’d talk about how badly they’d get pounded.  77-5 seems about right based on what I recall.  Now, a women’s rugby team started while I was there, and IIRC they started out like gangbusters.  Unsure if they still exist.

    That was the beginning of a long, gruesome losing streak to Duke that we finally just snapped in the NCAA Semis last year.  There were some awful butt-trash seasons between 2007 and 2018, excluding the title we almost accidentally won in 2011. 
     
    We still probably would have won the title in 2006, but Duke was THE team that could have challenged us.  And to have it thrown away on a fake rape allegation, just disgusting.

    Watching UVA outphysical Yale last year was a joy to watch. 
     
    The first Lacrosse game I ever got to see live was UVA vs. Duke in Charlottesville a year or so after the "rape" incident . The Cav fans gave them hell, but Duke ended up winning. 19-9 was the final I believe.

    I used to love soccer but the constant flopping turned me off. My wife is hispanic so if soccer is on TV it's the wussy Liga MX brand complete with 4 dozen flops instead of the EPL brand which is much better IMHO.
    I recall watching some crappy friendly between Honduras and El Salvador or Costa Rica and I kid you not, there were 6 guys laying on the ground screaming in "agony" at the same time.

    I'd love to see Lacrosse pick up steam in SWVA. Second best sport in the world behind American Football. Nothing like heading over to the Naval Academy and checking out a game from time to time. Got to watch them beat UMBC in the snow a few weeks before UMBC became THE UMBC a couple years back.
    Most exciting sporting event I've ever witnessed in person was the 6A lacrosse state title in 2015 between James Robinson and Chantilly. An overtime thriller.

    Who knows, maybe I've gotten used to the stench of Pioneer District football.
    Mediocre football, angry fans.
    I can tell you, there is a story about a game between Natural Bridge and Parry McCluer from back in the early 60's where PM lost the game. The fans chased the officials into the gym at PM. And then, after being escorted out by the cops, the mob flipped over a police car with the refs inside. This story is legit because I've read about it in the old papers.
    These 2020 antifa posers have nothing on old school BV!

    Lol, considering they got away with robbery vs. Amherst in '05 it may be time for the ones who still complain about a game they lost by 10 to shut up. What ever happened to Dennis Vaught? I know he went to a school down in Tidewater to coach, got fired for using the N word and then apparently has never been heard of again?

    He didn't go to a school in the Tidewater area. He was at Patrick Henry in Roanoke in 1989. They played a game vs Homer Ferguson at Todd Stadium in Newport News. At Halftime he yelled at his team because they were losing. He was reported to have said, "Are you gonna let a bunch of N beat you?". He was fired. But Richlands hired him a year later.

    Fair enough. Now if we could just talk them into stepping up to those challenges and get them the hell out of 1A. With Dixon leaving Galax they have absolutely no competition at that level now.

    There’s no doubt in my mind that Riverheads would have been the East’s representative in 2A last season.  That being said, the real state title game was played in Appomattox the week before.  
     
    Though Riverheads is so fundamentally sound, you can out-athlete them at times if you have equivalent discipline.  Galax did it, and Graham would have last season.  Appomattox runs a similar style but would have just beaten them up on the lines.  Either school would have beaten Riverheads by 14+.
