Heaven forbid we put the chips on the table like the chiefs or other contenders. Im not saying ertz has to be that guy but how’s the time you make that move and get rings, not wait and see.

I enjoy how everyone here is the good drinker among the group of sloppy folks around them. either a fantastic self selection of participants or maybe less than perfect self awareness

How many people died in the house? is it on a burial ground? do any family members have a history of being cursed or otherwise tied to the occult?

that kamara was hurt last year was the issue. he did not play great for a long stretch despite being a great player

Money and low taxes

You might have missed that I solved this.

Definitely ghosts

Please keep your politics out of football, sir.

they spend what they have available

next year you think we will be signing more UFAs than guys walking? Especially with DE settled?

Yup. Like it on paper, less exciting in practice. I’ve learned to keep expectations super low, not go early and almost always come away happy with 1-2 oddball grabs I didn’t expect instead of getting my heart set on anything in particular and camping out to find they had 1 (or no) copies of the item.

Who is saying they love him? i do see A LOT of Kyle rittenhouse is a true American patriot though. That we should aspire to hold it down like he does. This video making the rounds currently makes it uncomfortable with that celebration. https://mobile.twitter.com/EyesLeftPod/status/1299810351786074112 I’ll say it 100 times over. There’s a difference between humanizing and idolizing. Sometimes it’s been crossed in these shootings, no doubt, but I think a lot of the folks criticizing are making no distinction and that’s lame.

those steals at RB are a lot easier than premiere pass rusher. He might have snagged one this year. Maybe. But I’d be surprised to see many teams with solid bookends that didn’t invest a premium pick or large free agent contract. Definitely not impossible but we will see

you mention two drastically different players and then filling it as a singular hole. i think we have enough penetrating with Oliver and some big bodies that can kick inside. With an injury it could be rough. the stout run stuffer is easier to fill. And I don’t think Starr was GREAT at it. I would not trade a pick for a premium DT knowing it’s not a long term need with us stuck with Starr’s return and contract tolling. If there’s a decent guy that can be had on a 1 year deal at low price, I guess go for it (ala the raiders dolphins trade this week)

right. By adding talent at a more premium position. And likely acquiring a high comp pick as Milano would count and YN doesn’t. it wouldn’t have been crazy. And Milano has a good chance of being gone regardless.

And if you think social media’s effect on society’s ills is a cigar.... I’ll stand by my last comment

Because if you are pressing him for a direct answer I wonder if you even understand what you are asking. Which means I suspect the real answer isn’t what you are truly looking for here.

I think it’s a far more layered answer than you care to explore. There’s a ton of positives but likewise a lot of issues. There’s also short and long term considerations. but I suspect we would only marginally agree on what the issues are yet alone how they are being effected in various horizons

you said that criminals fleeing should be shot solely on fleeing. And have mocked me several times for pointing out how ludicrous that is. That there are criminals and innocents and criminals should be killed to protect the innocents if they don’t immediately go to jail. but here we are with a charged person walking away from the scene of his shooting 3 people while still seeming to be illegally carrying his gun and after curfew and you are justifying that he was just trying to ensure his and others safety by not surrendering to the police there. you can see why someone would find a bit of contradiction in your comments throughout this thread, no? Is it the speed with which they flee? Like a brisk walk is cool but if sprinting it’s an issue? Or is the tipping point an officer saying “stop” and then continuing on that makes you want them dead? Because it wasn’t fighting officers up thread when you made the argument, or the additional times you brought it up. I don’t know, maybe there’s something else different between this kid and the other “criminals.” It’s certainly getting harder and harder to parse out protestor vs BLM vs antifa in the arguments some of these folks make. When you refer to the entire group as antifa or the growing more common BLM terrorists... it makes you wonder which activists would be spared during this 1 hour full massacre of all antifa. actually, it doesn’t make me wonder that. It makes me wonder why anyone is defending the dudes rhetoric in the first place. It’s ok to just say someone “on your side” is an extremist and shouldn’t be considered representative. Unless you actually do agree and just don’t like having to own it publicly is the real issue.

ready- next time try applying that level of thought to what could be going through the mind of the young black man dead in the street instead of saying he should be shot for fleeing the scene if he has been accused of a crime. as by your standard this young man charged with several serious crimes should’ve been shot for fleeing.

he had a hype video we benched the starter for him he’s a little more. At least a tiny bit.

reading some of the rittenhouse filings... curious what folks think about him calling his friend instead of the police after the first shooting or frankly that once he reached police he didn’t immediately stop and report

The Blake situation has a few things hanging with me that I’m not sure expected protocol or best practice on. pulling a knife is not a huge deal to me. It definitely ups the stress level and potential to turn south... but alone you can back up, create space and continue to attempt to manage the situation. entering the car... And Specifically a car with kids is a major wild card. My questions about the use of force probably center around weighing risk to them if he gets in, not the risk to officers if he pulls a knife out of the door. It strikes me that in managing the scene an officer maybe should’ve controlled that direction of movement better? But that could just be Monday morning quarterbacking. If you think back to my earlier post about the officers controlling the scene, and who the imminent threat was to- it was pointed at seeing if you brought this up as I was curious about a LEO weighing a scene like that with kids present

generally very true Though the affirmative defense does bring some degree of guilty until proven justified dynamic to it, unless we are arguing someone else shot the guys. The shifting burden of proof and concession of having committed the act does effect how the fact patterns are evaluated. and unless there’s something we’re all missing the gun charge seems open and shut in that we know he had the gun and was 17 and was in a location where a 17 year old couldn’t do that. that said, I’ll again say they all deserve fair trials
