Probably don't even have a fantasy football team, since they already have all those other fantasy videos.

Go to youtube and type in Prager University. You can watch all of 'em. Not all of them are political.

And in no way shape or form a University or institution of learning. It is the equivalent of Rush Limbaugh or posting videos and calling it Limbaugh University or if there was a Keith Olbermann University.

It's like the junk mail you get that they make look really official so you take it more seriously and open it rather than throwing it away.

That's not to say all (or even most) of it's content is pure junk like infowars, breitbart etc. I don't know because I've only browsed and looked at it minimally. But it is in no way shape or form a University nor an authority on anything. It's another blog/news/opinion source on weak steroids.

Never implied or said it was.

Only some on the left have made it seem as though it was an actual institution of higher learning.

Thanks for the unneeded clarification.

So the people on the left named it Prager UNIVERSITY? which is why MACS was asking about it and if it is a real University and you responded that there is no physical campus only online resources....ala several other accredited universities?

So, teedub and Tony... if their videos are such trash, and poorly researched, or biased, or whatever... perhaps maybe one of you would like to show the class just how intelligent you are by posting one such video, and then your rebuttal of the stated facts?

Maybe Victor would like to do so. He's so fond of telling the rest of us when facts are facts and when they're not. Maybe he'll do it!

LOL!! Do you even hear yourself?? You already have... do you realize how arrogant you appear? I'm sure you don't care.

Here you go. Have a crack at this professor of jurisprudence from Princeton. I'm sure you're much smarter than he is.

Dude... I've got better things to do with my time. I already watched one of his videos on the Iran deal... there's a thread here on cbid. I'm not validating any of his crap any further. If you want my opinion on the structure of his videos dig up that thread.

All I am saying is it is in no way a University it is merely an opinion site. I didn't judge the opinions, haven't paid that much attention to it. I was sticking with fact... it's not a University. It's a site started by a talk show host.

In other words....although NOTHING the professor said can be denied in FACT he's spot on regarding the overstep of the SCOTUS and " making Law " and the forcing of the UnAffordable Care ACT on the American people. And he's also spot on regarding the incremental CREEP by the Fed Gov. into the lives of Americans.

I find it hilarious that we GET your opinion without ever asking for it on virtually every subject ( cuz your the smartestest guy here on all subject matters ) ....yet when ASKED to consider another view ^^^^ that is what you offer. Applause

Fair enough. I had no idea if it was or was not an actual 'university'. However, some of their videos intrigued me... others... meh.

I'm not judging content because I haven't seen most of it.

This weekend my clothes dryer started making really loud noises and smelled like rubber burning (no not like when drafter forgets to lube the condom). I was going to call a repairman but looked online to see what it might be. I found a video of a dude changing the front and back rollers and the tension pully on my exact dryer. It looked really easy.

I went to marbec on saturday morning and bought 4 rollers, the tension pully wheel and a new belt for $25. A couple hours later (I could do it in well under an hour now) the dryer is as quiet as it was new. It also drys better because I cleaned out all the lint from everywhere.

As an aside I never realized just how simple dryers are. Any schmo can fix what can be fixed and if it's the motor (also easy to replace) or heating element (and maybe the cpu/electronics) you may be better off replacing than fixing anyway. It's a simple machine. It was harder to make my own stir plate out of a cigar box and old computer fan.

The video may not have been from a University, Tech Institute etc but the content was accurate and useful. They also didn't represent themselves as a university etc.

Lynda.com, treehouse, and udemy are interesting places to learn online ...


Prager is a talk show host that developed a communication avenue that fits his views... nothing wrong with that in itself... it is what it is

Gotcha macs... you want me to jump through hoops to follow some YouTube link you posted and I'm guessing provide you with an analysis of it. But you're too busy doing what you're doing to bother looking up the thread where I already concisely stated my issues with the failures a Prager video had in structuring a coherent argument.

Goes both ways dude.

Tcby...i have no idea what you're babbling about the ACA for.
If you think nothing "the professor" (I thought someone established this is not a university... what the f is he a professor of?)says can be denied then I think you've got problems. I wasted my time watching one of his poorly constructed arguments and can see clearly where there was almost no fact and no evidence to any of his statements... If that's the crap you like, get on with your bad self. I'm not watching more of it.

Macs.. If you want to give me a reason to watch some more of his crap (as in convince me that some other video of his is somehow better constructed arguments than the one I saw) I'm open to the discussion. But unless you're willing to see what problems I've had with his tripe in the past you're going to be hard pressed to make that argument.

MACS says the dude is a professor of jurisprudence from Princeton and without looking I believe him at face value. He's a professor (assuming MACS is right) just not acting in that capacity at the non university of Prager.

Pffft... 4 ways, baby... all directions of the compass. I'm a sailor!!

And I'll have you know I attended an accredited, actual university. The University of Phoenix. Tony won't recognize it, though... they have no football team. d'oh!

If you've seen the videos, Prager uses people from many different universities to make them.

Because what Barry and SCOTUS did together was / IS UNCONSTITUTIONAL

You are hung up on something completely unrelated here...
Literally what does our discussion of Prager or Trump getting other countries to buy his properties at inflated prices have to do with the ACA?

One trick pony...

Dude... he isn't a professor anywhere...

He doesn't even have a masters...

I just checked his wiki...
He dropped out of Columbia without finishing a master's in middle East studies.
Shxt.. I'm a professor of biochemistry by that measure.

The dude doesn't have any professorship anywhere. He was a director at Brandeis at one point... But thats just administrative.

He's a talk show host...

I didn't know Burner was a miner - maybe there was a course on Prager.
