“Noted moron” is better than “noted contrarian”. Also, I would love a Kamala dunk fest on that fool.

Well Aaron Rodgers already knows how to answer questions like a politician. When asked if he was vaccinated, his response was, "I'm immunized." Maybe he should be Trump's VP.

Lol. Trump is probably considering him now that he’s a thing.

So, how long would it take Rogers to figure out that he, not Kennedy, is the superstar in the relationship? Thus, he could easily push aside RFKJR and run on his own (with Jesse V as running mate)? What idiots!

Robert F. Kennedy -- senior! -- has had a HUGE impact on my life and my views. I am a massive Green Bay Packers fan, indeed, I am a shareholder. But I intensely dislike almost everything RFK -- junior! -- stands for and, like most Packers fans who live in Wisconsin, I loathe Aaron Rodgers and his arrogance. Gee, it felt good to say those things!

The political landscape in this country gets more bizarre by the day. Do any of these egotistical fools have any idea what it's like to govern a country? I was a basketball/football star so now I can be President?? Although if a reality tv person can do it, I guess anybody can. God help us🙏

"Idiocracy," anyone?

Indeed.

RFK JR. and fellow flat-earther Aaron Rodgers could be a good thing for Biden. The lunatic vote will get split between the MAGA cultists and the Kennedy spaceshots. Normies for JB!

If RFK Jr picks Jesse Ventura that means two WWE Hall of Famers will be on the ballot this fall

Dude, you're right. I commented that he can bring back Jesse "The Body", work out a ton to get ready, then start offering to body-slam Trump in the ring. We can get Vince McMahon in there too.

How do you read that chart?

Why do you think Mike Johnson will have a problem passing any bills when he hasn’t yet tried to pass any or bring any up that I know of. Now at least he has an excuse.

Chris, you have the most eclectic taste in music of anyone I’ve known. All of your choices are surprising and lovely. Thanks so much for introducing me to these wonderful artists.

Warriors won a few NBA championships, but not in 2016. That belongs to Lebron and the Cleveland Cavaliers! We waited 50+ years. Don’t forget about that!

To the Morris regression:

1) the r-squared is terrible - he should be embarrassed; 1a not enough data points to really trust a more sophisticated regression, something that would track the changing underlying baseline (ARMA maybe?)

2) as Republicans have been reminding me since 2000, especially after 2016, PV winner for POTUS is a participation trophy. Really would need to track swing states versus national (difficult too since which states "swing" and why has changed a lot).

Aaron Rodgers is funny, like a circus clown. Like Spider in Goodfellas. Jesse Ventura needs to be the guy, from a pure entertainment standpoint, for the job. He can revive his Jesse "The Body" persona and hit the stump. Man, I want to see that. Not surprised that Paul and Yang turned that down.

Good to think Steph might see life after sports being about using his life for the public good.
