Who?

That Bob Mueller guy who posted back when Butch was coach was usually right, but that sucked because he only seemed to post info when bad stuff happened.

I knew GFW. He was a student with the team and he heard legit things until he graduated. Good kid.

My memory is not that good…didn’t he or was it someone else that ran/owned a restaurant that brought legit info as well?

Someone else. He stopped cause once again people jumped on him. He actually catered some UT events and coaches would eat at his restaurant

Yep I have never understood why people jump on people that bring info….. if you don’t trust then just move on….. people jumped on me about some of practice info that I brought bc it didn’t match what they wanted to believe or happen….

Well, I am not religious so I don't really believe the Devil is pulling strings somewhere. Agree to disagree there. However, I just don't understand why we cannot come to some kind of agreement here. All of these countries know what war is like and they know it is not pretty. I just don't want this to happen.

You underestimate the power of greed

Power is the ultimate driving force.
Unfortunately, many times, at any cost. Not good. I hope a diplomatical solution is agreed upon.

Keep an eye on China in the South China Sea. They love this.

I say we keep an eye on what is going on within our borders and f what is going on in the rest of the world. Let the UN and NATO take the lead for a while.

I really don’t give a **** what’s going on with the rest of the world when we can’t even take care of our own country. If we just stayed out of other peoples problems and took care of ourself then maybe we could make America a half way decent place again. And that’s not an anti Democrat or Republican statement. I hate both parties equally.

True. We should use our troops in a positive manner within our own borders by invading Tuscaloosa, Gainesville, and Athens. I'd be all for committing war crimes on those people.

 

[Devo182]

One word. Sin.

Greed and Payback.

That is all war in a package. You're either trying to take something from someone else (land, resources, etc) or you're doing it for revenge.

90% of gang warfare is suspected to be based on revenge. The other 10% was initial-aggression built on...? Greed.

Russia wants MORE. More concessions. More power. So they use border wargames and, now possibly, actual war to intimidate. But it comes back to greed. They want things people won't "just give them" so they use force. Not saying they shouldn't aspire to better conditions, but they should look inward if they want to fix that. But that would be too hard and take real self-criticism.

I would say...a lack of the ability of delayed gratification.

Yes, long-term negotiation and cooperation have shown to be the GOAT economic approaches. But those that can't see the best long-term approaches only see immediate benefits. Exactly why dictators ultimately always fail. And why countries should stop putting them in power
