Sorry to hear you were sick, but glad to hear you are feeling better!

I started feeling much better on Thursday after being sick for almost three weeks. To celebrate, I am going to the Tap Station where they are having an Autumn Beer Tasting. Yum, yum! After waking up the taste buds, I think maybe a big slice of pizza and a slice of warm Marionberry pie with heavy cream will be in order.

Love this time of year. The air is crisp in the morning and the days warm. This is when the beers, wine and ciders really shine. Soups and stew recipes reappear along with deserts made in cast iron skillets. It doesn’t get any better.

Good-bye nasty cold! Hello Hops!

Sherman, and also Doug Baldwin, have done a great job of expressing themselves without being disruptive or offensive.

The various players doing the raised-fist black-power bit, not so much. Some coaches – or GMs – ought to sit them down for a chat. A nice one, starting with “what message are you trying to send?”

I was really changing my mind about Kaepernick. The switch from sitting on his ass to taking a knee struck a good balance. Then this morning’s news has him at an Oakland high school taking pics with the kids doing raised-fist and laying on the ground doing hands-up during the anthem. He’s back on the naughty list, at least for me.

Completely agree that Charlotte (Tulsa, police conduct, BLM…) should be a separate thread.

JanS, I think the term you are looking for is “vulgar nationalism.”

[JanS]

Jeannie…once again, the lack of a sense of humor in this community rears it’s ugly head, I believe. Yes, I can see people who walk/run in the early morning or late evening hours adapting this to their needs too. I think it’s a good thing put forth in a very hilarious way. :)

[JanS]

what angers me, I think, is the fact that so many people yell about disrespecting the flag and disrespecting the military, when, in actuality, that has nothing to do with taking a knee during the national anthem, with the topic that Mr. Kaepernick is peacefully “protesting”.False nationalism or patriotism or whatever you want to call it rears its head once again, and the true topic is ignored, and he is called a “traitor” by the execs in the NFL. Shame on them.

[JTB]

I believe it is the responsibility of protest organizers to have a security detail alert and ready to shut down any provocateurs or crazies trying to promote violent behavior within the demonstration. That’s important to keep the message clear and to protect peaceful protesters from harm by the idiots or by police to who may react to isolated provocations more broadly than warranted. That’s based on my experience in the 60’s and of course now there are many more firearms in circulation so it may be more challenging to maintain control.

I think the topic of what professional athletes are doing with their demonstrations during the national anthem to encourage a discussion about injustice should be kept separate from discussions about Keith Scott and the Charlotte demonstrations. If the latter continues would someone start a new thread?

Meanwhile, I very much appreciate how Richard Sherman moved to further the message intended by the national anthem protests. I hope the players continue to incrementally press the issue. I noticed an article about how viewership has been low in the games following the protests and asserting they are the cause for the fall-off. Maybe, maybe not, but even that suggestion help further the discussion about the tolerance Americans have for racial injustice.

Mr. Kaepernick is not rioting. He is exercising his free speech in the most effective national platform he has access to…

The gentleman in Charlotte may or may not have been shot by a “protester” … but the truth is that the majority of the protestors in Charlotte have protested peacefully… a fact that gets very little news coverage.

when you repeatedly beat a dog and it bites you.. who is responsible? you? or the dog?
in our country.. the abusive human has a voice and the dog has none.. so we put down the dog..

which doesn’t solve the problem, does it?

Charlotte. Two dead – one by a black police officer, the other by a rioter. I don’t say protestor. Once it escalates to looting and arson, it’s no longer a legal protest. All of this without results from the investigation.

[JanS]

after the happenings in the last few days in Charlotte, and Pastor Crutcher, etc, etc…I really don’t know about anyone else, but I am becoming more and more enlightened …as a white woman…why Mr. Kaepernick is doing what he’s doing, and why it’s spreading. I do not want to hear anything about disrespecting the flag or vets…that happens every day by more than black people, I assure you. I cannot comprehend being a black person who must be afraid of their very life for as little as having a tail light out, or your car breaking down…or police verbalizing ” he looks like one bad dude” just because he is black and isn’t 5’3″ tall. I am sadly becoming more and more disgusted by the comments of our lovely white privileged people , the ignorance…of many of their comments. Here, we thought we had come very far in this country, when in reality, we haven’t even come close.

Today the Mariners suspended backup catcher Steve Clevengerbecause he tweeted offensively on a private account. Apparently Clev’s idea of private includes news people, and they took screenshots. I won’t quote the tweets in a nice place like this. They’re rude, and borderline illiterate, but we’ve all heard woree. Ballclubs have the right to dump someone, but they routinely tolerate much more serious misconduct,

[Betty453]

Kaepernick is just another ignorant Fool of privilege educated by the America Hating Liberal education machine and their is No finer example of that than when he wore his ” Fidel Castro ” shirt the other day.

I mean … That was Beautiful !
He was trying to make a statement about oppression and then puts on a T-shirt supporting a Murderous Thug ” Castro ” that has Executed whole families and imprisoned an entire nation for half a Century. Yes, that ” Castro ” or as some US Citizens that were fortunate enough to escape there own country refer to as Central America’s version of ” Stalin “. But, nobody can be surprised of Kaepernick’s Ignorance when our Very patriotic President OBama is seen chumming around with Fidel Castro’s Murderous Gangster brother ” Raul ” at a baseball game.

Of course we ALL remember where we were when Obama was smiling having a great time at the Cuban Baseball game with the Murderous Raul because of all the Protests ? Oh wait.. there weren’t any. Nobody Cared !

Imagine what would have happened at that very Baseball game in Cuba if one of the Cuban players decided to embarrass the Cuban Dictator by kneeling down during the Cuban national Anthem ?

I think that the Castro’s since they were such Huge fans of Stalin would use the O’L ” Knock on the door ” technique that Stalin and his henchmen perfected with Kaepernick and his family.

— ” What ever happened to the Kaepernick’s ?
— I don’t know… Nobody has seen them since Colin Kneeled during the Anthem. We heard a loud knock on the door that night and ever since then nobody has seen them. ”

Montanees, your listing should be entered as a new post under “West Seattle Jobs Offered”, not as a response to a separate thread about rules regarding job postings.

Not sure why so many people fail to grasp this concept, but maybe the rules announcement could be set up in a way that does not allow discussion…?

[JanS]

rpo…looks like you got the right squeaky wheel ;-D

hey, Mark…lighten up…it’s pretty humorous…

city-owned bike rental is not a bad idea, but pronto is definitely located in the worst conceivable area. a good bike share program in seattle would be located near bike highways and connect neighborhoods like ballard/fremont/U district. the best places for cycling hubs would be interbay and west marginal, or some other place near busses and interurban trails.

downtown? no way. people don’t walk or drive sensibly there, and there are way too many of them. you gotta be brave, defensive, hyper-aware, and in pretty good shape to ride a bike in downtown seattle.

Hello Folks: My wife and I just moved to West Seattle from Minneapolis. We are really happy about the neighborhood.

I’m wondering about the availability of a garage or work space to rent? Ideally it would be big enough to keep a few bikes (maybe a small raft and/or wet fishing waders) and have some work space for light wood working or bike maintenance and some painting.

We rented a lovely duplex, but it doesn’t have a garage and I’m missing that sort of flexible storage/work space.

Thanks for any leads. I’m new to town, so if not a garage, then please point me towards some other spaces along these lines I might not have found yet.
