    If your Lifelong team got political, would you stop supporting them

    Philámayaye, but not so much, just had incredible parents that loved me and taught me as their grandparents taught them. And I like to think that I am still able to make Dad and Mom proud of me. I try to keep in mind that everything I say, either through spoken word or written word, is a...

    If your Lifelong team got political, would you stop supporting them

    Dad always told me that unconditional love was both the easiest and hardest thing to do and he was right. Lets just say that some weeks I am doing Sweats every day to help me in that. Some weeks not so much. I have to respectfully disagree on the last part. Politicians are not killing our...

    Very true. So simple yet so many seem to miss this

    Unfortunately no other circumstances. The courts out here place a lower value on Native Americans than others. It comes from decades of things that simply devalued our worth in others eyes - from the 60s to the early 2000s, our women were sterilized without their knowledge by IHS primarily by...

    Most people dont see or understand just how deep some of the hatred between the different Native Nations there are. I am not sure of another race that holds grudges as long as we do. Some hold a grudge from something that happened 400 yrs ago or more. And then there are the bigotries between...

    Systemic racism does still exist today, but it is on a local level in some places and not nationally. And it is very true that most people view the rest of America thru the lens of what they see in their local community. We still have it here in South Dakota, both in the local judicial system...

    Not your week when you have decent things to say about Bama 2 different times. Now go say 10 Hail Vince Dooleys and ask for forgiveness

    If your Lifelong team got political, would you stop supporting them

    Since you mention you would become a fan of the past, how would you reconcile being a fan of the past when the Bama administration was political and like most other colleges fought against integration of not only their schools, but their sports teams? If we accept being a fan of our colleges...

    Amazing how many people have no qualms supporting teams with players with very violent pasts we would not let within 100 ft of our loved ones, but have an absolute conniption fit over players peacefully protesting... And lets face it, most of us would love to have their platform to express our...

    If your Lifelong team got political, would you stop supporting them

    Obviously I am not old enough to have been around for many of them, but it does seem so many have forgotten about the Berlin Olympics, Jim Thorpe, Jackie Robinson, Ali, the 68 Olympics, the 72 Munich Olympics, the 1980 Winter Olympics, and too many other instances of politics becoming part of...

    Tried surfing a few times, and was horrible at it. Fun trying, but never could get the balance needed for staying upright for more than 2 seconds. much more at home riding my horse up some mountain trails or out among the buffalo herd.

    Kudos to Nick Saban.

    I lived in your neck of the woods down there long enough for some of that southern charm and hospitality to rub off on me and there are some great southern recipes that I brought back up here with me. And gotta say that there is a whole of truth to the stereotypes of the southern gentleman and...
