  1. Sorry, we were looking for Adam Schiff. However, over the break our judges determined we will accept your answer.
  2. Does anyone know who holds the record for the most hail Marys intercepted in the end zone?
  3. In fairness to Jrober, I don't think he can help it. He's reasonably intelligent, but he's hopelessly lost to his emotions, and he only has one speed, and that's full throttle. There is no measured or nuanced in between for him. It's one extreme or the other. He comes to us from the BBMB, which I perused occasionally during the Whaley years. During that time I witnessed a good example of this tendency in his attitude toward EJ Manwell. Jrober started off as the ultimate EJ fanboy. He maintained his devout allegiance for the longest time. This man loved him some EJ like Mitch McConnell loves him a big pile of blow. If you'd gone to kick EJ in the nuts you'd have hit jrober in the head. Then one day, for no particular reason, he flipped 180° on a dime, and ran full steam ahead in the other direction. There was no gradual shift reflecting an opinion that changed over time as more information became available; just a split second flip. From that point forward, Manwell was a Maybinesque bust, destined to suck out loud and disappoint fans on a level Bill Kristol could only dream of until the day, near at hand, when he would be mercifully dropped from the league. The point isn't his assessment of Manwell. We've all been fanboys of someone who didn't work out (except maybe for DC Tom who likely identifies fanboys as idiots). Rather, the point is how absolutely certain he is of everything he says, even when stating an argument that is diametrically opposed to the one he made 10 minutes ago. If you have that tendency wrt a game that really has no greater significance beyond entertainment, imagine how that tendency will manifest when you think the fate of the Republic is at stake. When you understand that, you can understand how an otherwise intelligent man can take conjecture as fact, and believe that investigating corruption is an impeachable offense if one of the guilty parties being investigated might end up throwing his hat in the ring for the Democrat nomination.
  4. The line at the end was terrific: "If this were a prize fight they'd stop it." ?
  5. Let's not forget that the people who are certain that President Trump is a criminal are the same people who were certain that Juicy Smollett was the victim of a hate crime.
  6. If anyone can tell me what law President Trump broke, and support it with even a plausible argument, I will create a sign line praising your wisdom, and leave it up for 6 months.
  7. We're still waiting to hear what law he broke. It seems you've been reduced to accusations of guilt by association for process crimes.
  8. I'd design QB a run play to isolate Harris one on one with Josh and tell him to lower the shoulder and steamroll him. I don't care if it doesn't gain yards. It sends the right message and sets the right tempo.
  9. Broncos - L Cowboys - W Ravens - L Patriots - W Steelers - W Jets - L
  10. You couldn't even get past a probable cause hearing on that charge. Not even if the President said under oath that he threatened to withhold the funds if they didn't give him the Burisma info, and that the only reason he wanted the information was because he knew it would implicate Biden. Not with that charge.
  11. You really have no idea what you're talking about. If you knew enough to know what you don't know you'd be humiliated right now.
  12. That's a good point. I can't say I can ever recall the losing team take a knee at the end, even when the game's clearly out of reach.
  13. If President Trump is as horrible as you claim, why can't you make any substantive arguments to that effect that don't require mind reading ability to confirm?
  14. It turns out Swalwell's went to high school with Jonah Hill. Video of one of their interactions has surfaced.
  15. AFP runs a story about 100,000 children being in immigration related detention, then retract it when they realize it was during Obama's presidency.
  16. Because the media is covering for him. The truth needs to come out.
  17. Not really. There's usually someone like me espousing misogynistic philosophies like "we should wait to hear the evidence before jumping to conclusions," but rarely if ever do we see what you described. And in cases like this or Ray Rice, when it seems pretty clear what happened, you don't even see much of that. I haven't seen anyone jump to his defense yet. But hey, it's still early.
  18. They know it's a charade. They don't care. The only thing that matters to them is getting Democrats in office. By any means necessary.
  19. Swallwell's denying it. We need an investigation to get to the bottom of this. If he's lying, the cover up is worse than the underlying offense.
  20. Half of the National Review crowd is pulling for the Dems anyway.
