    It's on in the East Coast right now and it's a fabulous train wreck. I highly recommend watching the talent portion in the second hour. So bad. One girl was under pitch her entire song. Another performed a self written monologue about having cancer. Unbelievable.

    I'm only interested in the swim suit competition. When does that come on?

    They didn't have it but they might as well have. There was nothing different about the competition or the competitors otherwise.

    Next year they will have a beach volleyball tournament, I'm guessing. "It's about athletics and team skills".

    I was joking, I knew they eliminated that part from the competition.

    Surprisingly, my wife enjoys beauty pageants a whole lot more than me.

    50 States, NY wins 4 of the last 6.

    What are the odds?

    Was probably the millions of illegals voting. We need an electoral college for Miss America. Miss America is a TOTALLY RIGGED WITCH HUNT!

    Trump's from NY and used to own the pageant. Probably got the Rooskies to fix the results.

    I wonder if that just means that the people who run the Miss NY pageant are more closely aligned philosophically with the people who run Miss America; like, there maybe would be ladies from other states who would have beaten the NY contestant, but they didn't win their own state because those pageants are run by people with different ideals.

    Just a thought.

    The odds are nearly 100% that the best contestant will win, I imagine.

    Miss Universe, Miss USA, and Miss Teen USA are all operated by the Miss Universe Organization, which Trump owned from 1996 to 2015.

    I would rather see highlights of Blazer games that we won.

    I find it hilarious that a female beauty pageant refuses to include the other sex but dropped a swimsuit contest due to sexism.
    Maybe next year it will be the Gender of America Pageant.

    Those pageants have never been about brains

    Who wouldn't? :dunno: Sure beats listening to a gaggle of no-talent Debutantes drone on about "world issues".

    I'd like to see All Americans in swimsuits.

    All at the same time, across the nation.

    A sign of financial comfort/security, personal health/safety, and individual freedom/happiness. :cheers:
