It appears to be a little bit of a Diva attitude, but he's right! If you want something out of life, you gotta be assertive and I like that he's pushing buttons in order to make things happen. I support it!

I choose not to believe based on what I've seen that EJ is not as good as Tyrod. Having said that I hope he proves me wrong Sunday.

Predictably, it's the unwavering EJ supporters who are Tyrods biggest critics. He didn't have his best game, that's for sure. However, when the game was on the line, he literally took this offense on his back and got us the win. He led this team to victory and was the MVP. I'm beginning to believe that we may have found our franchise QB

I can only think of a handful of times.

Just give me the W's and a playoff appearance win and I'm good.

Remember how everyone use to say the same thing about Lee Evans? I just hope this isn't version 2.0

Better to sign Bradham now, if we are lucky we can get him around the $5 M per year range, if we wait and he has a pro bowl year, he'll probably be closer to $7M

This is not going to make the board happy.

You totally missed the point. Weren't we just discussing the priorities of the tea party in that their main focus use to be matters of economics and how that has changed now to matters of immigration? No, that's you.

This is a Point of View from the libertarian wing with the debacle we see today from Reason Magazine. Good Mag. As Republicans go batschit on immigration, Democrats turn into sweet angels

Its backed up by data, Azalin. I posted it in a previous thread, when asked what the most important issues are to people who now identify as Tea Partiers, it's immigration. The priorities of the Tea Party of 2010 and the Tea party of 2015 are not the same, all you have to do is look at the Tea party affiliated websites and the meme's and messages they post and they mainly deal with immigration. Look at their priorities in 2010. Far cry from today. And if you look, even in 2010 tea partiers cared more about illegal immigration than standard Republicans. Which means that the first link that was provided skews the results even more so. Plus, the supporters that love Donald are Tea partiers more so than anything else. Here is another link that again, shows that between Democrats, independents, Republicans and Tea party, they are most willing to deport all illegal immigrants, which goes back to that first link. This post wasn't so much to be a knock on the Tea Party but more so a reflection of where people's priorities are that follow Donald Trump. Which is that there are now a sizable chunk of people who refer to themselves as Tea partiers that care more about immigration than anything else. That is undeniable. C'mon now Azalin, let's not pretend that immigration isn't what got Trump's supporters all up in a frenzy which is why they have this undying devotion for him. Look at Ozy, he's not an outlier , I mean his stance on exterminating illegal immigrants is but his belief that this country is being invaded by latino leeches is a pretty prevalent sentiment within Trump's supporters and let's be real, a good chunk of those that refer themselves as TODAY'S tea partiers are in that group as well. LA Bills can tell you, I never referred to myself as a tea partier, but before you got here I created a thread on how I supported their beliefs, who they were etc etc. They were a group that cared about the Debt, taxes and government over reach. I supported their principles back then. I no longer support today's tea party.

I argued this exact same point with 3rd the other day regarding Trump and the tea party.

No, you are wrong about Russia. The U.S. and specially Europe have rolled over and have looked extremely weak vs Russia. And if you think the Sanctions have been nearly as damaging to their economy as the plummeting price of energy then I don't know what to tell you. Like I said Bernie seems like a nice guy but he's suited for Denmark not the U.S.

You have to excuse him, he's a partisan liberal.

We are knee deep in it, we have interests all over the middle east and I'm not just talking about oil. We have strategic allies in place and the middle east is on the verge of having a nuclear race. Many of these countries are run by religious fanatics and the idea that if we just turn are backs, scale down on our military and for the most part just focus on Domestic issues which is what I wholeheartedly and with good reason believe in. I'm not advocating for the Cheney foreign policy approach but definitely more muscular than Obama's. He's telegraphed his intentions on a number of issues, and our enemies know that he will avoid confrontation at all cost. That sounds nice, but it's not fitting for a country like the U.S The credible threat of retaliation against countries that want to advance terror and regional dominance is critical. It's like playing poker with someone, if you know they aren't holding anything, then you will call them every time. Putin, Syria and ISIS all have been pushing themselves to the limit. Obama established a "red line", Syria knew he was bullshittin, and they crossed it. Now look at that **** hole. Putin knows that he is surrounded by a bunch of pacifistic pussies in Europe and he knows that we were naive enough to not assist Poland and Ukraine and he's continuously pushing everyone as far as he can. And we all know that Bernie is even a much bigger non interventionist than Obama, he'd get pushed around even more. Listen, I think he's an honest guy who has convictions. I like that. But he's not made to be president of this country for matters of both the economy and foreign policy.

Oh no. You said xenophobic. You must be a liberal. I've said this before, if by chance Trump were to win, not only would I not vote for Trump or merely vote for Hillary, but I'd round up my entire family and push for Hillary to everyone I know that has an interest in politics. Not out of spite, because I don't roll like that, but because I'd like to try to do as much as I could possibly do from my part to keeping the GOP a relevant party not some nationalistic far right party like we see out in Hungary.

If she was just anyone other than who she is, she would probably be facing some sort of charges.

If you notice, once Hillary was caught telling a lie regarding not handling classified information on her private server and then had to change it to that I didn't send or receive any classified information that was marked as such. It's a totally bogus switch of stories, that's not the standard. The standard is not whether or not you knew if it was marked as classified but if you mishandled classified information, period.

I don't believe that. Based on his voting history and I've looked through it up and down, because that's what kinda dude I am and based on his history, his rhetoric and general philosophy I see him as being an isolationist. Obama's naivete on the world stage and his willingness to appease to avoid conflict has shown himself to be weak and some bad characters have seized upon that. I kinda don't blame him in the sense that one of the mandates of his election was he was going to be the anti G.W Bush. Well, like anything, pendulums swing and he swung too much in the non interventionist side. Sure, we can say that he escalated the Afghanistan war and that he took out Khadafi in Libya. Or that he increased the drone activities and is now running air missions vs. ISIS. We are in a period of tremendous instability in the middle east and for that matter an antagonistic Russia who is pushing the boundaries to see how far they can go without being brushed back. Make no mistake, ISIS wouldn't be what it is today if Obama hadn't of pulled out of Iraq with the expiration of the status of forces agreement. And before you even attempt to pull out some link that says the agreement was going to expire and that it wasn't his fault bla bla bla bla. Don't. Because I can show you even more compelling proof that came directly from his own mouth and the Secretary of Defense under his administration that states otherwise. His desperation to strike any deal with Iran is showing that he is a horrible deal maker. I have no doubt in my mind whatsoever that a better deal could have been struck if Iran actually believed that the U.S could have walked away from the table. His unwillingness to stand by the side of the Polish people by providing missile defense systems in the face of the Russians aggression or not wanting to help arm the Ukranians....Or when he dithered early on in Syria. The point is that Bernie would make Obama look like Cheney. I believe that if Bernie had his way, he'd make cuts in Defense like we'd never seen and I know it sounds cliche but I absolutely believe in it, that there is a such thing as peace through strength. If bad characters out there know they can push through certain areas without being stopped, they will do it. If they know there will be resistance, then the likelyhood of that happening is much less. I know you and others like Bernie, he's there for the little guy etc etc. But he isn't fit to be president of this country. His mindset is for Scandinavia, not here.

It's baffling to you because you don't understand the correlation of having a strong military and the influence throughout the world that it gives us. It's one thing to be have a foreign policy that first looks to diplomacy but keeps a military option on the table, to one who doesn't even consider the military option at almost any occasion. Aside from the vote to engage in military action against Al Qaeda and Kosovo in 1999, those are the only two authorizations for engagement he's voted on since he was a politician, which I believe dates back to 1990 or so. He would drastically cut back the defense budget, I know to some of you that sounds like a good move. I think we are already beginning to see the drawbacks of a foreign policy that has swung from too interventionist to not being engaged enough. The world is filled with lots of bad characters out there that seize weakness throughout the world. It sounds nice, cool, zen like and all that jazz to just disengage from the world, concentrate on our economy and voila, Problem solved! Doesn't work that way. A country like the US which is so intertwined with our interests woven throughout the world, we can't afford to always neglect the conflicts that occur in regions that matter to us. We have an obligation to protect our direct interests because they impact our lives in one form or another. I'm not an interventionist, but I'm not an pacifist isolationist like Bernie happens to be. Bernie's foreign policy is not made for the U.S and either are his economic policies. Sure, everyone wants free **** and it's even more popular when you say Wall Street is going to pay for it. That's not a serious proposal and anyone who understands the economy and isn't a prisoner of this form of ideology knows that this isn't grounded in reality for a country of 350 million people. Like I said, Bernie's ideas make sense for Denmark, but not for a country like the U.S

Mr angry old white liberal white dude, is one nasty little !@#$er

Irregardless of whose fault it is, any able country should help out in a humanitarian crisis of this magnitude. They are literally being hunted down, starved and displaced from their homes. Where are they suppose to go? Send them back to their eventual deaths or at best life of extreme famine back to their homes? It is the responsibility of the nations that are able to do what they can to provide refuge until things stabilize back in their homes. That's not to say have them become citizens of that particular country, just help out. And if you notice, the only country that is stopping them with militant force is Hungary. Why does that matter? Because Hungary is to my knowledge the only country out there run by a far-right nationalistic government. And look who supports that, not surprisingly it's Ozy, the Trump supporter.

That's ironic, because anyone with a "working brain" couldn't possibly support his foreign policy and economic policy prescriptions. They are fitting for a country like Denmark, not a super power like the U.S I'm just glad that people with your radical views are still seen as fringe.

When you go to retire for the evening, do you check underneath your bed for any boogie men? I hear they can be pretty scary.

Maybe one day the GOP can aspire to be just like the Jobbik Party.
