That's why I asked, "Why are you celebrating"

Every Obama supports response "Change"..... Change??  Can someone get specific for me?  I change stuff all the time, the way I drive to work, the food I eat, the channel on TV..... See, that's specific.

Reg, to me, it's not a change in 'politics'.  Politics will always be politics.  To me, it's a change in people's frame of mind.  It's good for the world.  When was the last time you saw people excited about an election?  People excited to be an American?  People excited about a political speech.  I was first the first time EVER.  The politics won't change, our lives won't change.  The economy will do what the economy does, one way or the other over time.  But this 'change' shows that we are growing as people.  If you have heard some of the ridiculous comments here that make me want to puke, it makes me proud to know who I voted for.  I just hope a couple of these stubborn, arrogant, ignorant people can evolve from their roots, and see the world a little differently in a few years. 

This has been another episode of 'Deep Thoughts', by Jack Handy.


If nothing in our lives will change, why the heck did you vote for this guy, whose only promise is change?

I have always been excited to be an American.  The people I know of who aren't excited to be Americans are people such as


  • Michelle Obama,
  • the pledged members of Jeremiah Wright's vile racist, anti-semitic, anti-American Trinity United Church,
  • Father Michael Pfleger, and
  • Bill Ayers and Bernadine Dorhn.

Beyond that, I still don't see what positive, tangible change anyone can reasonably expect from Obama.  I'm expecting a change in the tax code.  I expect that the change in the tax code will harm the economy, which would do what it does differently if there weren't additional taxes dragging it down.

I'm expecting change in the cost of living, if nutty plans such as carbon taxes increase the cost of everything that requires energy to produce or distribute (i.e., everything).  That change in the cost of living will harm the economy, which would do what it does differently if the cost of everything weren't driven higher by nutty carbon taxes.

I expect change in our nation's security, which has been free from major terrorist attack for over seven years, unlike during the 90s when we were attacked every 18 -24 months or so (e.g. 1st WTC bombing, African Embassies, Khobar Towers, USS Cole).

I expect change in my constitutional rights, if our President-elect keeps his promise to appoint Supreme Court justices who will consider the race and sex of litigants before they consider how to apply the law.

If those changes that I expect come to pass, they will not change my frame of mind about the breathtaking lack of executive experience our President-elect has.

However, I do not expect change from Chicago insider style dirty politics from our President-elect, especially given that his first announced appointment is Chicago insider style dirty politician Rahm Emanuel as White House Chief of Staff.  Those Chicago insider politicians really know how to bring people together and help them grow as people, don't they?

Love the effort and detail of your preview.  I go back to my earlier key to the game for RPI against Union however....

RPI's DL has played very stout all year.  

Against Union Coney did break one, but the balance of the carries were for very short yardage. 25 carries for 58 yards.  His longest other carry was 8 yards.  Not sure of the caliber of the Union vs. Hobart OL both are very big fact Union may be bigger than H.  Nor for that matter do I want to judge the talent of Coney vs. Marlier/Hobaica (all three are talented backs), but if they want to grind out first downs as you say they will most likely have to mix it up.  I don't see Hobart being able to pound it for multiple first downs per drive on the ground.

Doyle plays very good they have a solid chance.. He struggles it may be hard for the Statesmen to generate enough offense to win.

Duh ... guess the same goes for Robertson.  





I'm telling ya - RPI by 30.  Hobart's LB-led defense isn't going to help matters since it was from the outside and the blind side that Union was able to penetrate to Robertson -- not the inside.  The LBs would be great against the run if RPI had much of one to talk about.  Doyle's numbers last week weren't great, the injuries are not positive for Hobart and their running game has been bland, at best.  While Hobart is a good team, RPI is just plain better and will run circles around Hobart.

RPI wins 45-14.

I really do think your right Frank. I think RPI wins by double digits. I feel Robertson is really going to take charge against Bart. He is going to have time to throw and we all know what happens when that guy has time.

When he's got time, he joins us on "In the HuddLLe" on Sunday nights at 7:30pm.  It's SCIENCE.

Frank and dllip I usually agree with you guys but I think Hobart is better than RPI. The only way I see RPI winning is with Special Teams. Its a down year for Hobart Special Teams wise and RPI is exceptional.
It took a superhuman effort by Coney for Union to beat Hobart....by 3 points. Hobarts Pass defense is exceptional. and RPI has no running game to brag about. I really think RPI is going to struggle to score points. Unions pass defense has been awful and they really made RPI work (held Robertson 70 yards under his season average). Hobart put up 35 on Union like it was nothing. In fact they missed 3 FG's, so it could have been 44! And the only reason it was that little was because there was only because the game stops after 60 minutes when 1 team has a lead!


I'm with you Reno.....I think RPI is better, but not by that much.....I see RPI winning by 4 points.

You're welcome to answer the same questions I posed to Reno to back this up -- i.e., the HOB defensive matchup and the play of HOB so far this season.

I agree with LD but when you see a video like the lady who might think she wont have to pay her mortgage anymore, or the clips of people who voted for Obama but could not name one thing Obama stood for (except "change" or even worse, the other side like in the Howard Stern clips [which also went both ways]) you just hope the best is going to be done in the end.

I voted for Obama.  And that I don't think the "change" is going to come in the form of "politics" or in some radical government policy in taking peoples money away, the change is how people are going to have to start acting and thinking in this country.

Yack... you know Pat created a whole board for political discussion... it doesn't shut down after the election.

I heard RPI is playing Hobart this week in a game with playoff implications, and it is also senior day, and it's the last game on a field that's been in use since 1912.

Just a rumor... can't confirm anything.

Other things besides a new president change americans....a jump of 2000 points in the market.....being able to get a loan....cost of gas at a buck fifty...houses not sitting on the market upside down.  Those are changes.

I am willing to bet that anyone getting elected would have gained what you mentioned in your post, mainly bc the guy running the country now is so despised.

I can wrap my arms around it.  I just don't need to on these f'ing boards, especially with some of you hard-headed morons.  Just relax puppy dog, your market will recover.  Your 401K will be worth more than $1000 when you retire.  You'll be able to sell a house once again, and make some 'change' on ebay.
