  1. Past hour
  2. I suppose this is just Starks saying he wants to beat the best, but it also comes off a little like Jalen Ramsey's "trash" take. As a rookie he might want to actually do something in the league first before calling out the MVP.
  3. Surprised to see this kind of stuff in Tennessee. The Dems really love to support criminals. Weird
  4. Yup, that’s a promising initial list. Christian precepts do tend to align well with modern American progressive politics. In present-day America, Jesus would far more likely be seen wearing a Bernie Bro t-shirt than he would be seen sporting a red MAGA hat. Single-payer health care? Yes. Universal human rights? Absolutely. Concern for the poor? You got it! Labor exploitation? I mean…”thou shalt not steal,” right? American imperialism? “Love thy neighbor,” no? Environmental stewardship? Respect the Garden of Eden!! Something is conspicuously missing on that list, though… Pope Leo XIV needs to be as vociferously opposed to Israel’s genocide in Gaza as was the late Pope Francis. If he isn’t, I don’t think the Catholic Church can survive much longer as any sort of serious international moral authority. You can’t showcase your morality as your entire business model and then NOT take a definitive stance against collective punishment and ethnic cleansing!! Many here, of course, will (correctly) point to all the historical corruption and all the controversies the Catholic Church has already endured. Its woefully inadequate stance against the Holocaust will surely be mentioned, too. I would then just reply that the landscape of ethical expectations from human civilization is vastly different in the twenty-first century than it was over the previous two millennia. Also, in the specific case of the Holocaust, I believe Pope Pius XII was genuinely afraid of Hitler invading the Vatican in retaliation (not that this excuses the cowardice, but you get my point…). PPP Subforum: “Wait a minute, Commie Kay…aren’t you an ex-Catholic and current atheist? Why do you care about Catholic Church affairs?” Me: “I care because the Pope is still an enormously influential public figure and is capable of galvanizing hundreds of millions into positive action.” PPP Subforum: “But wait…where do you get your morals from??” Me: “Secular humanism and the Golden Rule, more or less.” PPP Subforum: “But wait…how do you think the universe came about, if not from God?” Me: “Net-zero-energy quantum gravitational fluctuations, with a currently poorly understood conception of emergent spacetime.” PPP Subforum: “You have been an absolute conversational DELIGHT, Ms. Adams, on this fine Friday morning.” Me: “Thank you! Go Bills!” PPP Subforum: “Yes! Go Bills, indeed.”
  5. Good, don't put your trust in man put your trust in God! We are slightly smarter than monkeys. We don't know crap about the universe. Especially some guy that went to Villanova. They haven't been relevant since the old days of the Big East! And a Cubs fan? That's like being a Jets fan yuck
  6. Scoring is not the issue. Stop playing fantasy football.
  7. They also had vocalists wend the station ID into intros of songs. Maddening. 🤨 * I'm nostalgic for the Ridgeway Ontario of 30 years ago. It's amazing the number of homes that have gone into the area in recent years.
  8. I don't trust you as far as I can throw you. Why would anybody? It's like trusting trump. In more good news, it appears Pope Leo is a real Republican https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-14693185/new-pope-robert-prevost-voting-history-conservative-liberal.html
  9. I would like your deal at $50 million. Pay him 12.5 per plus 1 million for 1000 yards, plus 1 million for 14 games, subtract 100K per fumble, an out in 3 years. This is a deal that would make JC smile. He’s a Porsch which costs more than a Camaro.
  10. Get Gaetz up in the bullpen!
  11. Of course nobody knows if these picks will perform. No more than we'd know if they selected heavy on the offense. Fact is, they correctly identified the unit that has continually let us down.
  12. Fitz by far. I cant believe so many are saying Taylor. Did we really forget watching him play? Tentative Tyrod? Who had on average 40 sacks against per year because he couldnt ever get the ball out of his hands? I respect Tyrod but Fitz had the makeup of Buffalo & was tough as nails & didn't shy away from anything. Fitz threw for what, 30 more TD's while he was here? 1 played like a QB & 1 played like a game manager. 1 could win the game for you & another would try not to lose it. 2 different mentalities. I'd prefer the guy who'd try to win you the game & at least took some chances.
  13. Just give Josh a kevlar vest... Flutie's demeanour often had me referring to him as Iago.
  14. I didn't know this was how it was done if they don't confirm someone. This seems worse for Dems because people with a grudge will just go in there and do whatever they want with no repercussions. They were making it seem online that if someone wasn't confirmed then the Dems would get to appoint someone. I like this option much better
  15. But Mayor Pete grew a peach fuzz beard to show that he is a real man!
  16. Easily. Josh is built like a freight train. Dalton appears to be more of a slight frame guy that fights to keep muscle on. If he didn’t try, I bet he’s a guy that walks around at 6’4” and 200lbs. It’s actually amazing Picket was as good as he was in college, his grip on the ball is so limited.
  17. Yes. More please. All aboard the trans train to the blue wave!
  18. Biden should have retired a decade ago. President "Auto Pen" will go down as the worst President in history. Shameful what the Dems did to this old man
  19. According to themselves they say they are a direct continuation of the church started by Peter 500 years earlier and had otherwise zero connection other than they used to kill and persecute all of the early christians. Source: Trust me bro Romans be like...
