Can We All Agree That In 2015 Not A Single Person Got The Right Answer Correct To "Where Do You See Yourself In Five Years".
Yes, it elicits a chuckle or two, maybe even a good laugh, but when you think about it for a minute, our world is being turned upside down.
Corona 19 is certainly a big player in current events and is wreaking untold havoc on our economy and education systems.
Pro and college sports are in disarray.
But the by far the saddest, and most dangerous change is the increasing violence by BLM and Antifa agitators in our cities and towns. And many Dems/libs are predicting that a Trump victory in Nov will set off armed resistance in our nation's streets (which we are already seeing FWIW).
I know I harp on this a lot on this board, but I'll say it again - when first elected, Obama promised "fundamental change in America". Putting aside Corona 19, I think he has succeeded in spades. And that includes the changes we are seeing in our national pastime of Pro and college sports.
I suspect most (nearly all?) of us thought Obama's words were just empty rhetoric and would have never imagined armed insurrection in our streets, cities, and towns. But that is EXACTLY what we are seeing happen as I type this. And if Trump wins, it might get even worse, if many Dems/libs predictions are correct.
/just an old fart's musings, yelling at clouds, etc - I know. But for those of us who grew up in the 50's, 60's, and even early 70's what we are seeing now was unimaginable to us back then. And scary as hell now.
