    Mike, in the movie one of his lead combatants said it would destroy his own troops. Why would that be his first option? It's cool not to like that fight, I'm just struggling with your reasons.
  2. TheLeviathan
    There might be something interesting here, but this is by far The Ringer's worst author. At times he is incoherent.
  3. TheLeviathan
    The battle had potential consequences, a lot of it was fight and keep the stones away from Thanos. And they very nearly failed but for a sacrifice.
  4. TheLeviathan
    I made no mistake. I said this and meant this all along: I guarantee you if a group of black folks thought their religion allowed them to take federal property at gunpoint...Trump ain't pardoning ANYONE in that circle of involvement. (Blessings or not) Yet these guys get glorified on Hannity and by Trump. Whether they blessed the milita or not, they are criminals (arsonists) who then were associated with a blatant act of defiance of the government. Yet they are celebrated as patriots!!! Athletes kneeling (not a crime) is somehow more worthy of twitter vitriol than dudes who set fire to federal lands and get supported by anti-American government militia.

    He didn't use the power stone in that fight though. I guess you could argue people see just possessing it as a sort of power-up, but that's not how they showed the stones in use. At least that's not how I interpreted them.
  6. TheLeviathan
    Berrios. He's the swagger.
  7. TheLeviathan
    Right, they had Thanos beat down Hulk for "fun" in the first movie. So it's not like he didn't have legit cred stones or not.

    You mean the people that took government property by force at the end of a gun? The people that have felt compelled to act as their own sovereign agents against the government? Whether the Hammonds were personally responsible for all of that or not is irrelevant. I guarantee you if a group of black folks thought their religion allowed them to take federal property at gunpoint...Trump ain't pardoning ANYONE in that circle of involvement. And one more thing - if that doesn't rise to treason by a legal definition I can say this with a fact: it's a HELLUVA lot less patriotic than taking a knee during a damn song. They openly mock and refuse to pay their country based on the laws of the country. These men, and the groups they affiliate with, literally attacked the government and Trump and his lackeys say they are being treated "too harshly" and worthy of a pardon and sympathy, but you put one knee down during a football game and people like you light their hair on fire. If that's not race....by all means, explain the difference. How are these blatant criminals being praised and defended by the party that espouses the "Rule of law". Yet the dudes who are violating no law whatsoever are the horrible, unpatriotic ones. Explain it. No sidetracks. None of your usual nonsense. Explain it.
  9. TheLeviathan
    If you can't call what they did treason, then I don't know what planet you're living on.
  10. TheLeviathan
    When you'll pardon white treasonists but attack black athletes as unpatriotic......seems like an odd difference. What would explain such ridiculous hypocrisy other than racism?
  11. TheLeviathan
    When hicks in Oregon were aiming guns at officers and members of the military....did he decry them? Oh wait...he pardoned them. One singular incident is not a trend. A trend is a trend. Trump is vocal when it comes to disparaging minorities and apologizing for whites that do roughly the same thing. As is most of the right in this country. The left is full of hypocrisy too, but not on this particular issue.
  12. TheLeviathan
    Danny Santana.....still a thing.
  13. TheLeviathan
    A player's value is not the same as their trade value. I wasn't arguing he would reap some kind of huge trade reward, merely that people keep throwing out the idea that he's an easily replaced player. He's not. He's not great, but he has value. Players of value, especially those that can play a decent to good shortstop, are not easily obtained.
  14. TheLeviathan
    For the record, I've found Black Panther a bit overrated. Seriously good, but not quite up to the hype. This movie exceeded my insane level of hype. And satisfyingly completed character arcs started almost two decades ago. Wedged that all in with spine-tingling action scenes and fan service that didn't feel gimmicky....no popcorn summer movie can boast doing even a couple of these well. Avengers Endgame hit all the notes.
  15. TheLeviathan
    I guess I'm not sure what you mean. It's totally cool that you didn't love it, I've never known anything that everyone loved. You're just terribly wrong is all,

    Who is Adam Brett Walker on a path to the Hall of FAme with these days?
  17. TheLeviathan
    This guy is ok I guess.
  18. TheLeviathan
    Well dammit. Their reactions are depressing.
  19. TheLeviathan
    Some perspective: Adrianza was 28th among shortstops last year with an 82 wRC+. He was 27th by OPS. 31st in WAR. People talk about him like he's a trash heap player. He's not. It's the nature of the depth of middle infielders in the bigs, but people lose sight of that methinks.
  20. TheLeviathan
    Wasn't the time heist most of the first two hours?
  21. TheLeviathan
    I would say that is part of the problem. There is difficulty in finding high quality individuals to be police officers and I think that is lowering the level of quality we get in their professional behavior. In many areas nothing more than a GED and a physical test is qualifying.
  22. TheLeviathan
    Will you force me to spell out which weapons we'll use or devise elaborate explanations of our guerrilla strategies? Seems like a thread theme.
  23. TheLeviathan
    Vote them in or out. Attend city councils. Call. Write. Protest. Make sure they know the status quo is unacceptable. Vote them out if they can't or won't change it.
  24. TheLeviathan
    How do we hold any elected officials accountable? How do you press for any legislation?
  25. TheLeviathan
    I am quoting from two existing posts: "I'm pretty sure I said pressure legislators and vote for people who will put more pressure on.Hold elected officials accountable if they don't hold police accountable." "To pressure the courts to hold these men and women accountable.To press for legislation if necessary.To elect people who will do more than pay lip service to investigating and prosecuting corruption, incompetence, and illegal policing." I have answered your questions. Twice. You wouldn't need a third time if you took the time to read the first time. I expect an apology - this is on you. And you do this to many posting here. If you want an actual dialogue you're going to have to start taking more time to read those that respond to you.
