Actually my wife has family in the Houston area that benefited directly from JJ Watt's work. The media reports on about 5% of what he does, if that.
Nice. Through what program or charity ?

I never asked for the specifics, but will next time we talk to them, I just know they gave him and his charity credit.

Here is his charity on TMZ with Miley and Ellen....I am not certain that he does 95% of his charity under the radar.
J.J. Watt Harvey Fund Breaks $10 Million as Ellen & Miley Donate BIG
Go to the website and read about all that they do and tell me how much of it is in the media? not very much.
JJWatt Foundation
But hey, be a hater, that is your shtick after all.
Garland was put up for a vote? Are you really this fucking stupid?Tell it to Merrick Garland.
Garland was rejected by the Senate, I did contact my senators about him and asked them to oppose bringing his name up for consideration
There wasn't enough support for him to actually have a formal vote. Garland was too much of an extremist, and would have ruined the ideological balance on the court, possibly destroying our democracy forever.
The Senate didn’t “reject him”. They refused to even begin the confirmation process, interview him, or to consider his nomination on the grounds that it was an election year.
Yes, it is called the Biden rule. Guess who it was named after?
I'm gonna miss NFL football on Sundays.
Oh well, at least my garage will finally be clean and organized.
It is not a claim, it is a fact.
The DOJ stated that Trump's tweets are "official statements of the President of the United States,”
The Press Sec of the POTUS said ""The President is the President of the United States, so they're considered official statements by the President of the United States,"
Who gives a fuck? If I were a NFL player, as long as the League was letting me do my thing, I could give a shit what the President says.
And it seems they are.
My point is that it is not the place of the President to be butting into such matters, to be taking sides on such things.
Yep, and was wrong also. Thanks again for showing how alike Trump and Obama are.

What I am showing is how hypocritical some people are. Bitch about what Trump is doing but never said a word when DumBama did it; as if Trump was the only one.

A kid walking home from the store was killed by a security guard. The President has the job of maintaining justice & commented when local laew enforce did nothing except say "Oh well, abnother dead blscvk kid"
Trump lied about what the protests were about & commented on a private industry that he had a feud with. There were no laws being broken,. No one was getting hurt.
So actually, Kaeperdick is the one that started this. Isn't that right?Because a teammate advised him that by doing that he could make more clear that he wasn't disrespecting the flag. Prior to that he had simply been sitting on the bench and declining to stand.
Ironical innit? The rhetoro-fascists insist that the opposite is what's going on. Kneeling --- a universal sign of supplication, used before God in prayer, before kings in kingdoms, before a maiden while begging for her hand..... even used by quarterbacks conceding a down to run out the clock, i.e. a completely submissive posture --- and they want to pretend it means the opposite of itself. Doublethink has arrived.
"Started" --- what?
It started with the NFL trotting out the national anthem at football games, an exercise that has absolute zero to do with the game. That went on for I don't know how long, then a few years ago they (the NFL) directed the players to be out on the field for the anthem, preferably standing.
THAT's where it starts.
If you want to take it back further it starts exactly 100 years ago when some playoff baseball games --- I believe Boston and Chicago without looking it up---- started having bands play the song (which was not yet the national anthem) on the field to rouse up the crowd, the equivalent of today's big dot-screen going "MAKE SOME NOISE".
They figured that would work as a crowd inciter because 1918 was a time of heavy jingoism, mob mentality and Big State. It was the same year a mob in Montana cornered a citizen named Earnest Starr and demanded he kiss the flag. When Starr resisted the mob HE --- Starr, not the mob --- was arrested, convicted and sentenced to hard labor in prison. That's an indication of the mob mentality jingoism of the time. The following year the Palmer Raids rounded up and deported people for their political beliefs. It was a time when the National Security League was agitating to ban the teaching of the German language and Dachshunds were ripped from their owners and stoned to death in the street for the 'crime' that we called them by a German name. German Shepherds were renamed "police dogs" . Like "freedom fries".
THAT is your background, and that is the history one must learn so as not to repeat it.
You're welcome.
Well at the time, they assumed all Americans respected our country and flag. They didn't foresee that some people would (for whatever reason) be opposed to this country or her symbols years later.
What they assumed was that mob mentality could coerce people. What they assumed was that they could deport political dissidents while ignoring the Constitution. What they assumed was that institutional bigotry would go unpunished. And for a while........ it did.
I'll say this yet again until it sinks the fuck in ---- Patriotism isn't scripted. It isn't a robotic exercise that can be scheduled for 7:14 and set up in specific verses to specific music with a specific flag fetish that has to be folded a specific ways by people in specific dress-up garb while the masses stand robotically in a specific posture. That's not patriotism--- it's THEATER.
Real patriotism is spontaneous, it's genuine, it can happen any time, from any source, it doesn't need fucking body postures or scripts or masses of robots or scheduled times. THEATER only detracts, diminishes and demeans it by mashing it down to a meaningless charade. And when you make it a mandatory injection into some public event merely because you have a captive audience and an opportunity to sell jingoism --- you cheapen it even more.
It originally started to show support of our solders serving our country. It carried on as tradition from there. Again, what real American would be opposed to that?
Well, times have changed and we've become more divided; especially after eight years of Blame America First.
It's one thing when groups of people part because of different political ideologies, and another when one group wants to part with America all together.
So now it's a new game where when one side throws rocks, the other side is supposed to get hit with them and not throw any back. Because throwing rocks back means you're racist and overbearing.
So actually, Kaeperdick is the one that started this. Isn't that right?

Yep that must be it. White people NEVER EVER are racist Nope. Never
This is a protest about that. Not the anthem. Not the troops.
So quit your fucking lying about it & you & your orange buddy can go fuck yourselves.
Racism is a problem with everyone, not just white people. What an idiotic racist post.So actually, Kaeperdick is the one that started this. Isn't that right?

Yes, it is called the Biden rule. Guess who it was named after?
There is no rule.
Biden said in a speech in late June of an election year that any vote should be delayed until AFTER THE ELECTION. Not until the next year. Not to be thrown in the fucking trash.
Not until the next President.
You keep lying or being stupid. Which is it?
Why do you assholes put your stupid, ant-America party ahead of this country?

If President Obama had nominated Eugene Scalia to the seat after Scalia's dad was whacked, I think that McConnell's position would have been entirely different. Such a move would allow the young Scalia to get back at the perps for his father's death. I think both parties could agree on that.
But the reality is that if the Democrats seize the Senate in November, President Trump might as well forget about any appointments. The Democrats are hypocrites, they won't go by the standards they set for others.

lolJJ Watt is a pro athlete and he has given millions and raised million more for charities and 95% of it was done off the camera.
So, yeah it was a fucking stupid comment, just like every comment that paints with such a broad brush.
How do you know about what JJ Watt did......ah yes the media.
