I agree with that. I think after eight years of Presidents with old Presidents with plane loads of baggage, I sense the fatigue. I think even the most ardent supporters of the two know that another term is just four more years of zero sum roadblocking of everything in Washington.

Took the Jets lightly. Paid the price for that.

The NFL could build a better coaching pipeline with a legit minor league NFL infrastructure where coaches and GMs could learn on the job. It's not revolutionary, it's how the MLB, NBA and NHL do it. Learn the ropes in the minors. I think a big component of coaching success is how a head coach works with a general manager. The Bills are a great example, but you can see it with the NYG. Schoen and Daboll are on the same page, all the time. San Francisco and Kansas City are other examples. In Detroit, the Lions hired GM Holmes and HC Campbell separately, and there's risk there for a lot of disconnect.

You don't say. Did EBOLA leak from a lab? Scientists claim accident at US-funded biofacility may have caused 2014 West Africa outbreak https://www.dailymail.co.uk/health/article-11383611/Ebola-leaked-biofacility-causing-2014-West-Africa-outbreak-scientists-claim.html Tell me if this sounds familiar: "Writing in the investigation, the authors said: ‘There is so far no evidence for an animal reservoir for Zaire Ebola in West Africa. 'The... strain’s sudden appearance in the region was thus unexpected and is still unexplained. Furthermore, the epidemiological investigations in Guinea and Sierra Leone were inconclusive and unconvincing." COVID wasn't the first lab accident. It was the latest.

That's my opinion of what happened. It's another one of Paul Pelosi's peccadillos getting out into the public eye.

Democrats for the most part make for terrible administrators. They are ok if their whole day is having lunch, discussing policy, and tweeting thoughts, but if the job requires running a government administration like a state or city, where you need the streets consistently safe and swept, you should always vote Republican. Republican-held cities don't descend into the level of chaos you see in Philadelphia, Baltimore, San Francisco, Portland or LA. Your local mayor can't appoint people to the Supreme Court or do anything about abortion. What they can do is fight the crime and decay.

Heat. Absolute masterpiece in filmmaking. It is legitimately one of the very best crime films ever made IMO, and one of the best movies of the 1990s (released in 1995). I've watched this movie so many times I could act out the coffee scene between Pacino/DeNiro on the street. While I've read Michael Mann's book (Heat 2), I don't want a sequel. I don't think you can make movies like that today without neutering the story.

Time has faded the fact that the the Indianapolis Colts had terrible drafting in the early 1990s. They have candidates for worst draft in history with their 1990 and 1992 drafts. In 1990, they picked Jeff George 1st overall, despite all his problems at Illinois, choosing him over guys like Cortez Kennedy, Junior Seau, Emmitt Smith. He was gone by 1993. In 1992, they were one of only 2 teams in NFL history to have both the #1 and #2 picks. They picked Steve Emtman (50 games) and Quentin Coryatt (82 games). That draft was arguably also one of the worst in NFL history. No HOF players.

I think he (or a new owner) will have a challenging time getting a new stadium constructed in the near term economy. I don't see Virginia or Maryland having the appetite for a generous Hochul-like stadium deal.

Ray Lewis. For a while. IMO, he got away with a double homicide, and since he was the face of the NFL at the time, the NFL et all worked overtime to rehabilitate his image. The whole "Ray Lewis is such an inspirational figure" makes me ill.

I think outside her elected position, those two (Pelosis) are up to their eyeballs in shady business deals with shady individuals and these break-ins of the home (not the first) and the "accidents" Paul has are the result of that part of their life and not anything to do with her political career.

That's Tudor Dixon's race to lose.

Unfulfilled expectations is the source of a lot of fear, anger and pain in life. If you think about the times you've felt the most angry, the source of it is likely an expectation you had of something happening or not happening, and the opposite of that occurred. I often find people who couch their enthusiasm for the Bills do so out of not wanting to experience the physical pain of disappointment, because they feel it deeply.

I think the Shapiro/Mastriano race in PA is a lot closer than what's reported. Rasmussen and Trafalgar both have it at a statistical tie.

I think Zeldin as governor would make Adams a better mayor of NYC. Adams needs the political cover Zeldin can provide from Albany to do what's necessary to get crime under control in NYC.

I'd like the Bills to get another offensive lineman - no more Greg Van Roten please. I think Josh Jacobs from the Raiders would be a shrewd addition to the backfield.

This is a clever attempt by the vaccine manufacturers to escape liability once the emergency declaration expires, if it ever will. I suspect they've been told that it expires sometime next year, or with a Republican held Congress, they end it. I also suspect the VICP isn't going to cover COVID shots. Money talks - if the government isn't going to put the shots in that fund, you have to think real long and hard about putting that product into a child's body. I don't think states will bite though because if you mandate it and something goes wrong, there's no federal fund to handle the lawsuits like there is for the other vaccine shots and parents turn to the mandating body for compensation.

Terrible technique as a route runner, which is the big problem, and why the Bills will never trade for him. He's still out there every Sunday playing street football. He either doesn't take coaching well or the Steelers haven't tried. I'm going to assume the former.

Less broadcast is more, NFL.

The Boston University facility has BLS-4 laboratories, where I hope is where this research was conducted. I think articles like this only provides more credence that the OG Covid was made in a lab.

Teams don't rotate DL like the Bills do, and that's the key. The whole Eagles MO is to exhaust the defensive line and linebackers by running at them 50 times a game. They have the most rushing attempts of any team at this juncture - 225. Falcons are second with 202, Browns third with 198.

Contracts. That's what is wrong. His contract doesn't permit the Packers to build the quality team around him. They are forced to build a cap-efficient team around an aging, expensive QB, with his salary alone at 13.3% of cap. For comparison, Josh Allen is at 7.9%. They've also held on to the oft-injured Bakhtiari too long. He represents the next 6.2%. They are grossly overpaying Preston Smith, the next 5.3%.

Most teams on that list are pretenders, feasting on mediocrity. The Ravens should trade Lamar Jackson before November 1, and spend the rest of the season seeing what they've got in Huntley. It is obvious to me that coaching isn't helping Jackson make better decisions, and the team may as well get some draft capital if they can.

Understood. For me, I don't think lying about an extramarital affair is a crime against the country. That's censure territory for me. I don't think the cases against Trump were particularly strong. Shouldn't prosecute Biden for being a bad President. Of any Presidents in recent memory that likely deserved an impeachment proceeding IMO was Reagan with Iran/Contra and Bush with the Iraq War. I find it impossible a President wasn't aware or signed off on the plan that weapons were going to Iran, especially in the 80s when we were constantly tangling with them in the Persian Gulf. The absolute lack of any WMDs being found in Iraq meant that the US went to war under a false pretense.

Clinton shouldn't have been impeached. Trump shouldn't have been impeached. Biden shouldn't be impeached. This whole impeachment as a political weapon has to stop. America doesn't need to impeach every President going forward. If Congress wants to, go censure the President.
