  1. Hopefully missing the opportunity to go up by two scores doesn't bite us in the ass...
  2. Man I feel bad for 30, he was there and made a good play, just barely missed the ball. Hope we can keep scoring with our first possession in the second half!
  3. Kind of funny, on paper this game should be a defensive struggle. Gonna end like 42-39 or something
  4. I'm a fan of giving a young QB time if they show promise. I had that opinion of EJ, and I have that opinion of Tyrod. Tyrod has a lot of things to improve, but he's young, and that's to be expected. For right now, he does enough good things, I think it'd be dumb to replace him already. Let's see how he develops over the next couple of seasons.
  5. I'm guessing since the run is working so well, we'll completely ignore it in the second half
  6. It's amazing how soft our defense is this year.
  7. Thank god we got a TD after that boneheaded wildcat call, jesus Roman. Good running that drive, gonna be very important. Great catch by Sammy:)
  8. That's some really !@#$ed up **** on the part of MSNBC.
  9. There you go. Yeah, that could definitely be. I'm not seeking to call this thing terrorism, or not terrorism, it's just... muddied to me, right now. Personally, it doesn't make much difference at this point. We have a lot of violence in this country, sometimes it's at the hands of someone seeking to send a message, sometimes it's at the hands of someone just looking to kill. Kind of getting numb to it.
  10. The target doesn't seem to fit the targets of classic islamic terrorism, hence why I said it doesn't appear to be political or religious in motivation. The target generally fits the disgruntled office employee situation more. And (at least so far) there doesn't seem to be any message or extremist affiliation, or history of extremism. The prep work, religious affiliation, and travel history, though, fit islamic terrorism, and not disgruntled employee. That's why it comes off as so weird to me, it's like a mix of both, and neither at the same time. Either way, the couple in question are !@#$s, and I'm glad they're dead.
  11. Yeah, this really makes no sense, even with the added details. There doesn't seem to be much in the way of political or religious motivation, it definitely comes off as mental break/workplace violence. But then on the other hand, you look at the fact that he went to Saudi Arabia, brought back the woman (at least that's what it sounds like), obtained weapons for... something. Maybe they were planning something else, and plans got changed by something that happened at his workplace? The target doesn't make a whole lot of sense from a 'terrorism' standpoint. So I have to wonder if they had another target in mind originally. Absolutely tragic no matter what the motivation is. As much as we live in a pretty great country, we have some serious problems to deal with.
  12. I think I'll just turn the feeds off on this for now, since it's no longer active. Details will sort themselves out. Glad they're dead/caught, definitely could have been a worse situation (and obviously could have also never happened, but that's the world we live in these days).
  13. Syed Farook was a sanitation worker with that department, apparently. This story is just weird. Were they planning an attack, and the planning got moved up because the holiday party pissed him off?
  14. Ah, I thought they got everyone (I've been watching that live stream since it went up)
  15. "Terrorism" requires a cause, imo. We don't know what the cause is, for this yet. If it's not motivated by politics or religious beliefs, then it's probably doesn't qualify as terrorism.
  16. Glad they seem to finally have the situation under control. As far as who is responsible... arabic, hispanic, white, black, whatever, !@#$'em, they're !@#$s.
  17. It's all about results. We are hovering around .500, so they get a C.
  18. 14 dead and 14 wounded according to the press conference. Suspects were prepared and organized, had 'long guns', and fled in a dark SUV.
  19. Sigh. Schools weren't bad enough? Now !@#$s have to go after the disabled? This country needs some work.
  20. Well, see you next year guys. I think j need to focus on happier things.
  21. We need to win 5 games in a row to get to the playoffs the way games are going. Basically season over in November. Again.
  22. We decided Sammy was having too good of a game, so its best to not throw his way anymore.
  23. Softest D ever, and then more injuries on the line. Would the football gods just give us a break once!
  24. Need two yards, lose 18 Come on guys!
