  1. Just looks like a much fancier Metrodome to me.

  3. You're supposed to be in church at that time. At least that's the reason those laws were formed back then.
  4. http://www.startribune.com/house-passes-bill-legalizing-sunday-sales-but-senate-will-be-tougher/414280863/ The Minnesota House passed a bill legalizing the retail sale of alcohol on Sundays, but forgetful tipplers who currently cannot buy their beer, wine and spirit beverages on the Christian sabbath will have to wait for Senate approval — an outcome still very much in doubt. This is the first time in state history that a legislative chamber has passed a bill overturning the Sunday ban, a law that has been in effect since 1858 statehood and remained in place after Prohibition. Recent elections have seen significant turnover at the Legislature, and among new lawmakers — of both parties — the Sunday ban has increasingly been viewed as an antiquated relic. The House vote of 85-45 is a victory for Speaker Kurt Daudt, who unsuccessfully pushed for an end to the Sunday sales ban in 2015 and 2016. Daudt, who is considered a front-runner for the 2018 Republican nomination for governor, is trying to burnish his policy profile. Ending the Sunday sale ban is a populist issue with which most Minnesotans are familiar, often when they realize they need beer for the Vikings game but have to drive to Wisconsin to get it. Polls have consistently shown a majority of Minnesotans want an end to the Sunday prohibition. Minnesota is one of 12 states that prohibits Sunday sales, and all of Minnesota’s border states allow Sunday sales.
  5. https://mobile.twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/832708293516632065 Get him out of office NOW!
  6. Oh god, I saw so many of the "If Obama wins again, I'm leaving" posts on my Facebook feed back in 2012. And I kept thinking "Where the hell are you gonna go? We are by far the most conservative developed country in the world." And of course, none of the went anywhere when Obama won again.
  7. I joined the ESPN boards back in '99 when I was a pimply faced 16 year old. The first users I remember were rocketpig (Brock), jewscott and Kobs, and I was instantly hooked. And 18 years later, I still have not seen an internet community quite like it. Twins baseball brought us together, but the personalities we brought to the table meshed perfectly. And I think a lot of people who weren't there don't realize was that BYTO was created as a sort of sanctuary from the ESPN boards. BYTO might be seen as the Westworld of baseball forums, but ESPN was far worse. Unless you were doing something illegal, there was virtually nothing stopping you from causing mayhem there. So we wanted to preserve the spirit of the forum without the endless trolling that was interrupting the flow of conversation. Unfortunately, having an almost unfiltered forum even amongst your best e-friends cannot sustain itself forever. So I felt very fortunate that Brock was able to find us a forum with an acceptable compromise of sacrificing some sovereignty in favor of sustainability. But the same time, damn those were some of the best times on the internet. Therapists must love Statfreak. I've never known a person who can overreact to the tiniest thing to go wrong on a baseball diamond. Kobs might be in the top five of funniest people I've ever met over the internet. Dankind was funny until we suddenly realized that the nearly decade long act he was pulling wasn't an act at all. And there was yarnivek, aka manager at Country Kitchen in Winona, who seriously said that he could do a better job of managing the Twins than Ron Gardenhire if he had access to the same information he had.
  8. Someone briefly made their avatar a nipple and he genuinely asked if it was actually a nipple.
  9. That press conference...wow! This man is a raving lunatic!
  10. If today's Christians met Jesus, they would call him a Muslim terrorist.
  11. 2003, the year I learned that "rocketpig" can also be a verb.
  12. The only thing missing from that debate was Godwin. Beyond that, it had everything. A heated debate over something that couldn't be proven and was absolutely pointless anyway, the political like absolutism that you must pick a side, posters (mostly Kobs and yarnivek) virtually wishing death on each other's families, etc.
  13. "It was dirt, not pine tar." We lost longtime posters over that debate.
  14. So some of Trump's rich buddies the other day were posing for photos with a nuclear football. Somehow, Hillary's emails were a greater danger to national security.
  15. Uh oh, he's using ALL CAPS now! This is our President in a nutshell... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_l7RiQXiugk
  16. More "so-called" judges in the 9th Circuit upholds the ruling suspending Trump's Muslim ban.
  17. https://www.congress.gov/bill/115th-congress/house-bill/899?r=86 Well, the DoE had a good run...
  18. http://m.huffpost.com/us/entry/us_589a45f1e4b04061313a1fbb This man is a 70-year-old King Joffrey.
  19. If your cabinet nominee needs a tie-breaking vote from the Vice President, you really might want to reconsider that decision.
  20. https://mobile.twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/828574430800539648 Any negative polls are fake news, just like the CNN, ABC, NBC polls in the election. Sorry, people want border security and extreme vetting.
  21. https://www.congress.gov/bill/115th-congress/house-bill/861?q=%7B%22search%22%3A%5B%22861%22%5D%7D&r=2 This is apparently a thing. A terrifying thing.
  22. Trump was probably informed this morning that he cannot fire the judge who overturned his executive order. And I'm not being facetious when I say that.

  24. You know the answer to that. They don't think they should be here PERIOD.
