Big CIF Central Section rule change affecting high school... playoffs starting fall 2025 & beyond: the "25% Rule." If teams aren't seeded in top 25% of higher bracket, they remain in base division. If implemented last year - Sanger, Hanford, and Tulare FB would've stayed in D1A or D2.show more

This is Allen High School in Allen, Texas, just... 25 miles outside of Dallas. Over 1,772 students were in the graduating class. 18,000 people were in attendance inside their football stadium. The graduation lasted almost 4 hours. 🥵 The enrollment at Allen HS is well over 5k students. 😳 Allen, Texas only has one high school. The school is huge. If you were passing it you would think it was a University. Many of the surrounding cities have one or two or more high schools, Allen has remained at one. They are a powerhouse in athletics, especially football. Their graduating class had more people than my entire high school had. 🤯 Have you ever seen a graduating class that big? Have you ever seen a high school football stadium that big? Anyone staying for 4 hours?show more

List of depressing events Calgary fans have had to... go through in the last 4 years: - Lose in heartbreaking fashion to the Oilers in 5 games in the 2nd round in 2022 after an epic season that they dominated all year - Gaudreau and Tkachuk leave for American teams - Treliving deciding to go for it with Huberdeau/Weegar/Kadri acquisitions but Markstrom decides to be sieve and Huberdeau has the worst drop off in NHL history - Sutter was fired because everyone hated him and they would only stay if he was fired - Even after Sutter was fired, Lindholm, Toffoli, Hanifin, Backlund (for a short period of time), and Tanev all wanted out - Chris Snow passed away - Badly lost the Hanifin and Tanev trades - Rick Ball leaves Sportsnet for Chicago - Johnny Gaudreau and his brother Matthew died tragically - Had a magical 2024-25 season that missed out on the playoffs by 1 point - Ryan Leslie leaves Calgary for Toronto - Went back to earth the next year and had to trade Weegar, Kadri and Andersson during the season - Sportsnet 960 radio shuts down in Calgaryshow more

"Explosion in Kharkiv" or something along those lines is... the most frequent post I make. I've probably made a thousand of them by now, if not more. Air raid alerts are so frequent here that I usually don't even post about them. They can last for days, and the citizens of Kharkiv are forced to disregard them. Or we can have twelve of them in a day, and we will also be forced to disregard them. I often see online how central or western Ukraine complains about the alerts, and oh, how much I would give to have an actual solid warning about an attack like them. But "explosions in Kharkiv" always arrive unexpectedly. How surreal it is that we are forced to live like this. How horrific it is that thousands of bombs, missiles, and drones fall on a major city in Europe daily, and all the major press and political figures just pretend it doesn't happen. Because if they admit that it happens and they just watch it year after year, then what kind of people are they? Do they care at all?show more

REASONS GADDAFI WAS KILLED: 1. Libya has no electricity... bill, electricity came free of charge to all citizens. 2. There were no interest rates on loans, the banks were state-owned, the loan of citizens by law 0%. 3. Kadafi promised not to buy a house for his parents until everyone in Libya owns a home. Gadafi's father died in a tent during his reign. 4. All newlywed couples in Libya received 60,000 dinars from the government and because of that they bought their own apartments and started their families. 5. Education and medical treatment in Libya are free. Before Gaddafi there were only 25% readers, 83% during his reign 6. If Libyans wanted to live on a farm, they received free household appliances, seeds and livestock. 7. If they cannot receive treatment in Libya, the state would fund them +2300$ accommodation and travel for treatment abroad. 8. If you buy a car, the government finances 50% of the price. 9. The price of gasoline became $ 0.14 per liter. 10. Libya had no external debt, and reserves were $ 150 billion (now frozen worldwide) 11. Since some Libyans can't find jobs after school, the government will pay the average salary when they can't find a job. 12. Part of oil sales in Libya are directly linked to the bank accounts of all citizens. 13. The mother who gave birth to the child will receive $5 000 14. 40 loaves of bread cost $0.15. 15. 25% of Libyans had all Ilisna diplomas. 16. Kadafi has implemented the world's biggest irrigation project known as the "BIG MAN PROJECT" to ensure water availability in the desert. If this is called "DICTATORSHIP", I wonder what democracy is? US imperialism seeks domination, not democracy. The British Labour Party and their “stop the war” trotskyites were happy to dance to Clinton’s genocidal tune.show more

Just a two-star recruit out of Miami, FL, Fernando... Mendoza was initially slated to go Yale before switching late to Cal. And after an 8-game starting season in 2023, he emerged as a bonafide NFL QB prospect during the 2024 season. And he enters the Big Ten (now at Indiana Football) and the 2025 #NFLDraft process as a QB Draft fans need to get to know: I’d bet on his continued ascent up boards over the next 10 months. Mendoza’s film last year has a LOT to be excited about, from his pocket navigation, deep ball placement, and high release point allowing him to pinpoint at all three levels with control. But what really jumps out in studying Mendoza: his toughness. He faced ample pressure last year and was as good as any quarterback with pressure in his face and finishing through contact as a passer. On plays where he had less than 2.5 seconds to throw, Mendoza was top-5 in the FBS last year in Completion % (min 250 attempts), behind players like Cam Ward and Shedeur Sanders. As you can see in the plays below, Mendoza has the size/arm talent to complete passes with rushers muddying the pocket and/or hitting him, and the rare placement and control to complete those passes at a high level He’s one of just seven FBS returning starters who faced pressure on 170+ snaps. The QB he’s replacing, Kurtis Rourke, faced pressure on a little less than half of Mendoza’s. Plus, Rourke was among the best in the country on play action last year in the Indiana offense, and Mendoza should benefit greatly: he had a 98.2 QB rating in play action passes last year. If you haven’t get, it’s time to get to know Fernando Mendoza. He’s the next surprising rising QB who crashes the early part of the draft. 👀 #ShrineBowlWhosNext East-West Shrine Bowlshow more

The Pelicans started doing something that could help us... win A LOT of money... Dejounte Murray 6+ Assists (+115) Feel Free to Ladder after reading the reasoning below and the videos attached⤵️ Last game vs the Lakers, Dejounte Murray had 15 Potential Assists in 28 minutes, and they were all pretty good quality looks The big change they made to the offense is using ZION as the roll-man in the Pick and Roll. This 2-man game that has Dejounte as a willing and creative passer, sending chances to Zion who is one of the premier finishers in the paint in the NBA lead to 4 of his 8 assists alone. Today he gets to face a Suns defense that is missing one of their big bodies in Mark Williams and another one of their biggest enforcers in Dillon Brooks, while also being on the 2nd leg of a B2B. Dejounte just returned from a lengthy recovery of an Achilles Tear 4 games ago but had 13 months of recovery. This is on the longer end of recovery time (at least in modern medicine) and has ramped up to 28 minutes last game. Anything above 25 and we should cash out here! If you made it this far.... I hope you are tailing! Make sure to show some love before you leaveshow more

🚨 WARNING: CHINA'S BIGGEST COLLAPSE IS STARTING. China’s real... estate market just crashed to a 20-year low. About 25% of the market is already gone. And this collapse is NOT over. If you think this is just another China headline YOU ARE COMPLETELY WRONG. This is NOT just about apartments. This is about one of the biggest engines of Chinese growth staying broken for years. While household wealth, confidence, and demand keep getting hit at the same time. That one fact explains a lot. Because property crashes do NOT stay inside property. - They hit spending. - They hit credit. - They hit local government finances. And then they hit the whole economy. Now look at how deep this already is. New home prices fell 3.2% year over year in February. 53 out of 70 cities were still falling month over month. Property investment has now declined for four straight years. And in December 2025, that drop reached a record 17.2%. That is NOT a market that is stabilizing. That is a market still breaking. And it gets worse. Home prices are expected to fall another 4% in 2026. The downturn is now expected to run into 2027. Even after a 40% national property price fall from 2021 to 2025, the system is still under pressure. Now connect the dots. When a housing market this big keeps falling, the damage does NOT stay local. - China’s households get poorer. - Consumption gets weaker. - Developers stay trapped. - Local governments lose land-sale revenue. And global markets get another reminder that one of the biggest growth engines in the world is still in deep trouble. This is NOT a small problem. This is a REAL slow-motion collapse that keeps feeding into growth, confidence, and risk. I’ve studied macro for 10 years and I called almost every major market top, including the October BTC ATH. Follow and turn notifications on. I’ll post the warning BEFORE it hits the headlines.show more

Muslim negotiation tactics that stem from the Quran and... the Sunnah of Muhammad, and the conclusion for non-Muslim humanity: By Ofer Binshtok 1. When Muslims are weak before a war, or when they are at war and collapsing in battle, on the verge of defeat, only then do they negotiate with non-Muslims and reach a deal, better or worse, so long as it leaves them independent and on their feet. (The Treaty of Hudaybiyyah, Quran 47:35) 2. Muslim: when you have the upper hand, wipe out the non-Muslim presence completely. Leave no trace of it, by killing or by forcing Islam on them. Do not leave even physical proof they ever existed, so they cannot rise again. In the end, even if it takes hundreds of years, leave only Muslims in the conquered land. [Quran 8:39, 9:5, Bukhari 25 and Muslim 22, Bukhari 4287 (physical destruction of all symbols of other faiths), Nasa’i 4059 (kill anyone who wants to leave Islam)]. 3. In Saudi Arabia, the birthplace of Islam, 100% of citizens are Muslim. There is not one house of worship or holy site belonging to non-Muslims. Not one church. Not one Hindu temple. Mecca is the most racist place on earth. By law only Muslims live there and visit there, millions of them. Mecca is a microcosm of the Muslim vision. Note on method: In usul al-fiqh, when a verse is worded in general terms, the ruling follows that general wording. It is not limited to the specific occasion on which the verse was revealed (al-ibra bi-umum al-lafz, la bi-khusus al-sabab). Conclusion for the leadership of non-Muslim humanity: 1. When non-Muslims have the upper hand over Muslims, they must not build any system of equal, mutual coexistence with Muslims. If they do, they will be attacked and wiped out later. Dictate the terms. Bar them from building military power. Impose that reality by military force. Every Muslim attempt to build military power must be punished with a bombing that wipes it out at the start. This rule must be forced on Muslims if they will not accept it. 2. In wartime, when Muslims are in a position of inferiority, do not negotiate with them. Attack them until they surrender with no talks and no conditions, and until they accept the surrender terms dictated by the non-Muslims with no reservations. As an example, Muslims in Afghanistan destroyed the Bamiyan Buddhas in 2001.show more

I have gained experience over a long period of... time, and based on that, I am sharing this with all of you. Tigers that leave Bandhavgarh and move into territorial forests do not find safe habitat at all in the forests of Shahdol and Anuppur districts. Similarly, tigers coming out of Panna often reach the forests of Sagar and Katni, where they face a major threat to their safety. In the same way, in the Balaghat Territorial Forest Division (both northern and southern ranges) adjoining Kanha Tiger Reserve, there is absolutely no safe habitat for tigers. Nauradehi holds the tag of being the largest tiger reserve, yet tigers are not safe here either. Madhav Tiger Reserve has never been favorable for tigers from the beginning—past experiences in this park have not been good. The route that tigers use while coming from here towards Rajasthan is also unsafe for wild animals. Yes, the arrival of cheetahs has somewhat increased the movement of monitoring teams in this area automatically. We think that tigers have developed the habit of living with humans or amidst villages, but the reality is exactly the opposite, which we are completely ignoring. In the past 3 years alone, 140 tigers have fallen prey to poaching in Madhya Pradesh. And the surprising thing is that Madhya Pradesh is the only state where 380–400 tigers are present in the territorial (non-reserve) forests. “This number of tigers is more than double the total tiger population of Rajasthan.” Some of these tigers do move in and out of reserve forests or share boundaries with them, but most of them live entirely outside protected forests, without any security or monitoring. This is an extremely worrying issue. Today, tigers have completely distributed themselves across both the Vindhya and Satpura mountain ranges in Madhya Pradesh. Whatever new initiatives and innovations the state and central governments are bringing for their protection, in reality, they are either insufficient or are not being properly implemented on the ground. If nature has blessed the earth with such a beautiful and powerful creature, then it is the duty of every individual to protect it. Our country is fortunate that 75% of the world’s wild tiger population resides in India. I got a bit emotional, so I felt it necessary to write all this. If you like what I’ve said, please share it. #bandhavgarhnationalpark #kanhatigerreserve #madhavtigerreserve #Ranthambhorenationalparkshow more

🚨 WARNING: CHINA'S COLLAPSING IN REAL TIME. China’s real... estate market just crashed to a 20-year low. About 25% of the market is already GONE. And this collapse is NOT over.

MR. IG🐻Prescription Play #2🏀 Ja Morant o11.5 Reb+Ast (+100)... #GrindCity vs #LakeShow Film. Data. Narratives. What a great play. Show love if you want another play❤️ Lets start with the data because this man is averaging 16.8 Potential Assists across his last 9 games with 25+ minutes. We have also hammered the idea of the Lakers being a horrendous transition defense this season, and we know Ja Morant is at his most fun when he gets out in transition. Expect some easy assists on those plays here. Now as far as the Lakers, they don't hide their strategy of "you are either shooting or passing but you are not driving." While that last matchup was the one that started the drama with his comments about the coaches chewing him out mid-game, it did look like he was figuring out how to read it in the 2nd half. The Grizzlies would put Ja Morant on the wing in an ISO position, with everyone cleared out to the other side. The Lakers would have the big show EARLY help on the near side block. Ja Morant would then read the help of the big man and the weakside corner If the big and corner were helping early, he would drive and find the corner. If the big was helping and the corner wasn't, he would find the big on the opposite block. If the big AND the corner were waiting for him to drive before showing help, he would force the switch onto a lesser defender and put the Lakers into a position where they had to show help. And as far as the rebounding, Ja Morant's defensive role is simple: When there is a corner camper, matchup with the corner camper. With no Reaves, and not matching up on Luka/Lebron, we know this will be the case and should keep him in uncontested weakside rebounding position on any deep shot attempts. This is why he has had 11+ Rebound Chances in 3/4 against the Lakers.show more

This was officially my last MCS tournament of my... career. This play was ruled "play on" because the admin said "we only intervene in critical circumstances, and we decided not to here". For a recap.... Last tournament I legally blocked a kick. Used a designated blocker, got the animation, timed the block, and blocked it. They intervened then and said I had to recreate. Must have been a "critical" moment. Last year I was in quarter 3 of my second round game because my first opponent didn't show up. I was told by an admin my opponent showed up and I had to quit out of my game and replay my first one or I'd be dq'd from the tournament even though my first opponent was 45 minutes late. I have been told by an admin the following... "If its easy to block a fg, just do it again" After I explained my blocked kick was perfectly within the rules, I asked which rule they were abiding by and they said "EA has the right to tell you to recreate, no questions ask" The admins in the MCS tourneys are the most incompetent human beings they could possibly have "running" the tournament. They don't understand the game, they don't interact with people well, they are extremely inconsistent, and they frankly suck at what they do.

Last year Justify👑 and I (Harmony Bloodstock) gave out... our top 8 colts from the 2 year old sales, ranging from 250K in now G2 winner Crude Velocity up to 3 million dollar G1 winner Brant. 6 of 8 were TDN Rising Stars & 7/8 are winners. 💫 This year tho we are going to switch it up & give out a few horses that sold for 50K or under that we believe were the best “value buys” of the season. I believe that if you put in the hard work, have the passion & humbly learn from the best that you can still find a very nice runner at a value. So here are 4 value plays that we have high hopes for if they stay healthy: 1. Omaha Beach x Force To Excel - 40K at March OBS 2. Mo Donegal x Lucy Buckner - 50K March OBS 3. Mind Control x Gather Round - 20K March OBS 4. Rogueish x Gray Nicole - 45K June OBSshow more
