Posted in: Gonoi attends White House ceremony for women of courage award See in context

Please note discharge status notwithstanding (I presume it was a general discharge), she’s a former member of the JGSDF. She’s now considered a veteran and is allowed to wear her dress uniform at ceremonial events (like the one held in the White House). Why she chose not to is anyone’s guess.

Gonoi should have worn her JGSDF dress uniform rather than a judo outfit to the White House.

Build one that guarantees an 800-mile driving range in cold weather at a $25,000 MSRP and I'll consider it.

If she is really down with the cause, she needs to hop on a plane, go the Gaza and literally fight for a ceasefire. Until then, it’s just words, just speeches.

Considering she single handedly beat the 49ers to win the Super Bowl in Vegas earlier this week, it’s no wonder Tay Tay’s seen by the world as the Second Coming.

“Bills head coach Sean McDermott said he would examine every way to give his team the extra needed to go all the way.”

Hiring a reliable field goal kicker would be a good start.

The guy blew his pitching arm out, no longer making him a “two-way” baseball player. He wasted his productive years on a team that had zero chance of making the playoffs let alone get a WS ring.

Some team will pick him up, but he is past his prime.

By giving the Middle East conflict a good leaving alone. Japan has no dog in that fight. It needs to keep it that way.

The biggest winners have always been the cities that loses out on hosting an Olympics. The cities chosen are doomed financially to build/refurbish sites for something that only lasts one month tops with little hope of ever recouping all the money it spent to appease the IOC. Ask any Japanese if they think hosting the 2020(21) Summer Olympics in Tokyo was money well spent.

Kishida keeping Taro Kono in his cabinet is a real head scratcher. Everything the guy touches explodes on the launching pad (authorizing the purchase of the wrong types of syringes for use during the Rona pandemic comes to mind). The only government job the guy’s qualified to be in charge of is cleaning the bathrooms in the Diet building.

@kaimycahlMar

Your post is wrought with emotion (yelling does not mean you are right). You are welcome to espouse your devotion for Team Japan, but looking at the teams they faced in pool play (China, Australia, the Czech Republic? Seriously?) and the location they played (all home games in surrounded by adoring fans) the WBC organizers set your team up to get trounced once they jumped on a plane to play outside of Japan. The reality is the guys you support will be one-and-done.

Meanwhile, Mexico is a very formidable squad. We learned that in our earlier meeting. But, that was then and this is now. They are worthy to meet the U.S. on Tuesday night. Japan is nothing more than a sacrificial lamb in a run up to the barn burner that will be a Mexico/U.S. final.

Team USA is hitting its stride just at the right time. 23 runs scored in the last two games. They should have an easy victory over Mexico in the final.
