  1. If it makes anyone feel better, Patriots fans consider this author no more credible than any other forum poster.
  2. The Bills are getting older and stock-piling picks. This roster is what you would expect an expansion team to have. Older, overpaid players to fill a team, waiting to teach future draft picks for a year-or-two before cutting them lose. It's the classic, build a franchise in 10 years plan.
  3. So Cameron Jefferson got cut...
  4. 1) Jaime is keeping his oath to march north, even if it's by himself. 2) For a second, I wanted Littlefinger to summon the guards to defend him and have Arya go Hitgirl on a room full of soldiers 3a) Dany's crew were surrounded. Had Cersie been fried, then everyone in the arena would have been slaughtered. Even if they escaped, the armies would begin fighting each other. The ultimate goal was to have a big enough army to fight the dead. Losing soldiers when it can be avoided was not an option. The backup plan was probably to march north anyway and hope they don't get attacked along the way. 3b)Cersie could have slaughtered the entire rebel leadership and won the war. Although it would have probably meant the destruction of King's landing. Being true to her character, she would have an escape plan and just leave the city to burn. 4) The strategy was to meet at Winterfel and make plans there. Everyone was taking different routes. This is common for large armies that could move at different speeds; including the US military. However, it would have made a lot of sense for the leadership to travel together and plan on the way.... but Dany and Jon wanted some privacy. 5) Euron's plan was to find a way to storm off on his own. Probably the reason he picked a fight with Reek to start. However, the scene was so well acted that it made it confusing. So either Euron is a good actor, or the tv show actor should have toned down his performance and given a hint to the double-cross.
  5. I'm starting to wonder how he got re-elected so many times. The guy was literally Hitler.
  6. That is a big debate that hits a grey area since there are percentages involved between public and private funding. The logical solution is to defund them, which is starting to happen. If this was held in a city park, it would be an easy answer.
  7. Everyone knew? That must have been some epic weed to risk getting sent to a concentration camp.
  8. Probably because they are teachers stuck inside a bubble and have no clue how to handle real world situations except to ask for more money. As I have said, I have no problem when venues charge speakers for security fees, it only becomes a problem if the university starts telling the speaker what he is allowed to say.
  9. The money goes to the security company, which should be picked by the speaker. I clarified that the university should not make their "fee" mandatory for this reason. The guards charge how much they want depending on the risks and equipment involved. The cost depends on the profile of the celebrity. Beyonce will pay more than Carrie Underwood.
  10. It's not ideal, but it's reality. (I'm looking at this from the perspective of the university; which is getting heat) You have one side willing to commit crimes and the other who wants protection. The University needs the money to separate the two. The ultimate solution would be for law enforcement t to break up the criminal organization threatening citizens, but california can't provide police protection because the criminals are their base. So we have to wait for the federal government to do it.... and military intervention isn't acceptable... yet. So what's a reasonable compromise in the meantime? Shapiro can cover costs for security because he's a paid speaker. It would be no different than Ariana Grande holding a concert in Afganistan. Some locations cost more than others. When I said "free speech isn't free", I didn't just mean $$$. We have that right because we're protected by a military force keeping others from taking it from us. In this instance, the threat is from our own citizens, so it's a little complicated. The price of providing that freedom is targeting our own (misguided) people. We paid that price before to force desegregation... are we at that point again?
  11. Free speech isn't free. I have no problem with this as long as it's not mandatory. If someone wants to go to North Korea, the travel agency doesn't force them to hire bodyguards.
  12. Never buy a car for the resale value. And how is an Audi in the 20k range?
  13. I choose to believe that they were on that ice lake for weeks. ...and that the night king intentionally set a trap to get himself a dragon.
  14. The first sign of the tank was BBMB getting shut down. They knew the fanbase would implode.
  15. To build an armored escort vehicle. Also known as a tank.
  16. Does this help the salary cap? Do the Bills get back his signing bonus?
  17. somebody needs to update the compensatory pick thread
  18. The first two verses trigger Atheists, and assumes America's gender...
  19. As a die-hard centrist, it's just easier to justify alt-conservative ideas since the alt liberals have gone completely bat-crap crazy. It's a lot more fun to debate the extremes than to nod and agree about normal civilized behavior, like cops bring food to protestors....
  20. You're advocating violence done by idiots to justify violence done by morons. The only distinction I can tell is figuring out how you differentiate between idiots, morons, fools, and millennials.
  21. Sammy was double covered most of the game. They were so focused on him, they forgot to cover Kupp on the TD pass. The Bills had a defensive line and no wide receivers. They chose to fill a need with a player they rated #1 on their boards.
  22. My Advice is to go with something that can be easily fixed. Everything I've read suggests that putting water, chemicals, and pumps in a contained area is a temporary state that nature tries to destroy from existence. Experience from a friend, and I own a (heated) pool. My home town had hot springs. In High school we went up there to test the water...the stuff that grew....
  23. Everyone was banned from BBMB. That's the ultimate goal, isn't it?
