Ironic that Lynch played at Seattle & now Oakland...the two closest NFL teams to Oregon.

Rather than face forced retirement for working in the PNW Marshawn Lynch instead went with the Riaders.

In all seriousness this may be the most retarded thing I’ve heard all week.

Someone go back in time and warn the Lynch family that their name is racist.

The schools were named for the family which originally had donated land for the schools over a century ago, but Superintendent Paul Coakley says “many newer families coming into the district associate the name with America’s violent racial history.”

Many times this whole 'donation for naming' thing kinda requires the naming to get the donation. So does this mean the school district is returning all the donated land back to the Lynch family?

NO! The van is coming for you. Better check the “black” cat. It might have one or two white hairs.

LOL! You’ve proven my point: it’s very hard to find an all black dog or cat. Most have at least a few white hairs. The first dog I adopted after I became an independent adult was half black Lab and half Irish Setter. He came the closest to all black, with only about a dozen white chest hairs. Thereafter, they’ve all been mostly black, with the only pure bred “black” Lab having a white spot on his chest the size of a man’s hand. Right now my closest to all black is a black and white mantled Great Dane with long, soft, floppy, black uncropped ears. With his huge white feet, white chest, and white snoot he looks like a 122 lb. Beagle. He’s also a totally corrupt couch potato, having taken complete control of the only couch in the house.

So true. My other dog, a 90 lb. AST/retriever cross, has taken over at least half of my bed. We negotiate the split every night. He’s also black and white. He was supposed to be half Great Dane and half black Lab.

That’s funny!

My kitteh is maybe 15 lb. we negotiate the split in my bed, too. Don’t know how she does it but she ends up with the biggest spot! Lol!

I love her dearly but wish I could reclaim just a little more of the bed!

The problem with those big guys is they all seem to think they’re lapdogs!
No sense of their size!

Do you realize we’ve created a disgraceful spectacle here, hijacking a respectable political discussion and diverting it to corrupt house animals.

That was the name of my Kindergarten teacher. Today, with that name, the little brainwashed Black kids would claim they’re being microaggressed. It’s a sick society today, and it’s getting sicker.
