One of my biggest goals when I transferred to UW-Whitewater was to achieve a 4.0 GPA in at least one semester.
Today, after what was by far the most difficult semester of my academic career (not just because of academics), I am very proud to say I achieved that goal.
A flat tax is stupid because If I make 30k and I’m taxed at 20% I lose 6k which is massive considering I only make 30k a year. Someone making 50 million taxed at 20% pays 10 million but they still have 40 million to fall back on. It’s not proportionate at all
I want a flat tax rate for everyone citizen. And no loopholes. Simple and effective.
Don’t try to fuq this up. It makes sense. You make more money, pay more taxes. Less money, less taxes.
Ok let’s try this again:
Aaron Jones - cut
Dbak - cut
Campbell - cut
Savage- Jags
Runyan - Giants
McKinney (top FA safety) - Packer
Jacobs (top FA running back) - Packer
+ a new DC.
By far the most eventful Packers offseason since 2019 and it’s only Day 1 of free agency.
Milwaukee is a great fucking city with a lakefront, an elite bar scene, plenty of attractions and a passionate sports fanbase. Sure it’s not some mega city on the ocean but it certainly is a great town that anyone can enjoy living in. So sick of this narrative.
Started with a rookie LB saying the Packers didn’t belong on the field with them, now Arians saying the cold won’t affect the game and that AB will be back next week as if they’ve already won and their secondary calling themselves the “grave diggers.” They deserve an ass kicking.
KD blew a 3-1 lead and then immediately left the team he blew it with to the team he blew it to, which also happened to be the team with the best record in NBA history. Nothing Giannis ever does will be as pathetic as that
Dude is visibly frustrated over not being allowed to statpad in a massive blowout meanwhile Giannis played 20 minutes tonight and lost his double double streak and did not object once
So Montrezl Harrell took the ball away from Giannis even after Giannis offered to shoot with him, Giannis had to go find another ball, then when he got back they put the ladder there intentionally to prevent him from shooting.
Giannis was well within his right to get pissed.
Joe Barry-coached defenses by YPG allowed:
2007 (DET): 32nd
2008 (DET): 32nd, 0-16
2015 (WAS): 28th
2016 (WAS): 28th
*Packers actually hire this guy*
2021 (GB): 9th
2022 (GB): 17th
2023 (GB): 19th not including today.
He’s terrible at his job. We all knew it too. Fire. Him.
KC is getting a full on apologist press conference on NBC at the end of this one to discuss the last two plays that didn’t go KC’s way. Completely shameless. Absolutely terrible for the sport and the league.
Wisconsin had to make 9 more FGs just to win by 1 in OT because the officiating was so one sided that Purdue got 1/3 of its points at the line and nearly quadrupled the Badgers’ FT number.
Badgers win a classic but that was truly the worst officiated game I’ve ever seen.
I don’t think Joe Barry called a single blitz all night.
Against the league’s worst OL with a rookie QB who has terrible numbers facing pressure, that is the most inexcusable thing I can think of. Atrocious. Fireable offense.
DeRozan on Portis Jr.: "He stared at me. That’s all it takes for me. I don’t care who it is. It could be the janitor in the hallway. Look at me a certain type of way. Like, just play basketball. Get the rebound and play. I’ve just never been a player with the extra theatrics."
Aaron Rodgers: *shakes head in frustration after receiver runs wrong route*
Social media: TERRIBLE LEADER CANT RALLY A TEAM WHAT A DIVA
Tom Brady: *cusses out players and coaches and throws his helmet after one bad half of football*
Social media: THATS WHY HES THE GOAT

Giannis just had the best season of his career statistically and yet the narrative is that he had one of his worst. These people do not pay attention to the sport they cover. It’s embarrassing.
“I love it here. I love this city. I feel like I’m one of them. And I’m going to do everything I can do to win another championship. I’m not satisfied. I want more.”
- Giannis Antetokounmpo in the documentary “Giannis: The Marvelous Journey.”
Middleton put up 23/10/4 on 64% shooting last night and it barely gets mentioned. Dame was getting doubled all 2nd half and Middleton stepped up big time. That three he hit to open the 4th felt huge. Respect him
I just wanna make sure this doesn't get lost in the narrative... As nuclear as Dame was in the 1st half, Khris Middleton played (arguably) just as big of a role in securing that W.
He was elite in nearly all facets of the game. Khris Middleton is (still) good.
If any Packers team since 2010 deserved to win a championship this one might be it. Absolutely exceptional team players and great personalities. HOF QB and a phenomenal head coach. I want them to win it so, so badly.

The greatest Packer of all-time. Drafted when I was 5, i’m 23 now. I wish him well in New York and will be rooting for his success.
Besides Michael Jordan's "flu game", what was another epic performance from sports history by an athlete who was competing while either sick or injured?
I’m not really sure why Jokic stans hate Giannis so much, you’d think there’d be some level of appreciation bc Jokic and Giannis are both smaller market stars with admirable rises to greatness. NBA Twitter is just a very miserable place I guess
The Packers front office under Gutekunst did an exceptional job of getting the team to Super Bowl caliber after the 2019 season. 2020 and 2021 had everything they needed to win a championship and simply failed when it mattered most.
11 of Purdue’s last 13 points came at the FT line. Purdue has shot 18 FTs to Wisconsin’s 6. They didn’t make a single FG from 7:11 to around 20 seconds and managed to keep the game tied, because of the whistle. This isn’t real basketball
Matt LaFleur consistently does not have his team ready to play, kills drives with goofy ass play calls, regularly fails to get his most dynamic offensive players involved and is never aggressive when the situation calls for it.
I think he should be on the hot seat.
If the Packers had managed to follow up the Rodgers-Janis Hail Mary in the 2015 divisional against AZ that would probably be my favorite Packers game ever and Rodgers driving 96 yards in two throws would be talked about way more than it is.
People who don’t follow Giannis or the Bucks think this is just a cringe attempt at being relatable but I promise you it’s just who he is and has always been lol. Can’t believe dad jokes are enough to make NBA Twitter legitimately angry
I get that they’re all butthurt because Giannis has been destroying their favorite team but I really don’t get the Milwaukee hate. It’s always been a beautiful city and anyone who actually has visited knows that
Giannis is the second superstar today that has gotten injured because a player decided to slide underneath them to try and draw a charge during their drive to the rim. It’s time to ban the charge. It’s a dangerous play that adds nothing to the game.
I cannot wrap my head around Giannis scoring 64, the Pacers stealing the game ball from him and lying about it, and somehow Giannis being the big villain the morning after. Just a ludicrous narrative.
Did I really just switch to ESPN and the first thing I hear from Doris Burke is “does a difference in standings flip Brunson to 1st team all nba in place of giannis” that might be the dumbest thing I’ve ever heard
Let us pray…
Lord almighty please give Giannis and his teammates the strength, focus, intensity and shooting prowess to deliver a Game 7 win in Boston today.
Amen 🙏
