  1. At least Coleman 340 might help. A . Washington at 295 too light for DT and too slow for DE.
  2. Just received this email Republicans in the House are set to vote on a terrible tax bill this week, possibly as soon as tomorrow. Despite claims that this tax plan will help the middle class, nothing could be further from the truth. The GOP tax plan will make it easier to ship even more good-paying manufacturing jobs overseas by eliminating taxes on offshore profit. This tax plan blows a hole in the federal deficit and sticks you and your grandchildren with the bill. The GOP tax plan also unfairly raise taxes on the middle class and retirees. Call 1-888-329-5096 now to be connected to your member of Congress. It would increase taxes on many middle-class families and most of its tax breaks would go to the top 1% and corporations, while many families earning between $50,000 and $150,000 would pay more in taxes. To pay for these tax cuts for corporations and the wealthy, the GOP plan would cut 1.5 trillion dollars from programs like Medicare, Medicaid and your retirement security, raising the possibility that Medicare could be turned into a voucher program.
  3. A priority for defense should be try to prevent cyber attacks .
  4. Survey: Afghanistan opium production up by 87 percent The production stands at a record level of 9,000 metric tons so far in 2017, compared with 2016 levels. http://www.foxnews.com/world/2017/11/15/survey-afghanistan-opium-production-up-by-87-percent.html
  5. No, McD and Beane have to evaluate the players to find out who will go all out even in a losing season.
  6. Your Political Compass Economic Left/Right: -4.0 Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -2.46 https://www.politicalcompass.org/yourpoliticalcompass?ec=-4.0&soc=-2.46 Gandhi was near my score on the chart
  7. The one time they should have listened to Trump and voted for Big Luther. It would be ironic if a red state like Alabama had a democrat for Senator.
  8. If the Bill's D can't beat QB Kellen Clemens , the season is over.
  9. Finally, thank you Kevon
  10. It does look like a long time rebuild so far. I just hate to change the OL scheme that worked the previous 2 seasons to one that does not fit these players.
  11. Tennessee State football player expelled after reportedly punching coach on sideline http://www.foxnews.com/sports/2017/11/14/tennessee-state-football-player-expelled-after-reportedly-punching-coach-on-sideline.html ouch
  12. Ex-colleague: Moore dated high school girls A former co-worker of US Senate candidate Roy Moore says it was 'common knowledge' that Moore dated high school girls. CNN's Boris Sanchez and Alex Marquardt discuss the story. http://www.cnn.com/videos/world/2017/11/11/moore-high-school-girls-sanchez-marquardt-segment-nr.cnn
  13. What in the world happened to the Bill's run defense , 20+ runs in a row , pathetic . No problem with pass defense , wasn't needed when they run 300 yards.
  14. McD passing on Mahomes and Watson scared me . I hope he has a better QB to target or Peterman is the lottery ticket . I hate the price of trading up unless you see another Goff or Wentz , that I can't judge.
  15. I would give McD and Beane the full 5 years if they replaced Castillo. What he did to the OL is a disaster. Changing schemes and players to fit it every 2 years does not work. I would not play Peterman until this OL is back to last season's level of play. No way Taylor is as bad as the Saint's game.
  16. Could this be data Edward Snowden had with him now in Russia ?
  17. The 79 accusers of Harvey Weinstein are giving other women and some men the courage to also speak up now against sex abuse. At the very least this might deter present and future abusers. https://www.usatoday.com/story/life/people/2017/10/27/weinstein-scandal-complete-list-accusers/804663001/
  18. ATLANTA — Republicans in Washington seemed near panic Thursday in the light of a news report in which four women said Roy S. Moore, the Republican nominee for a United States Senate seat in Alabama and an evangelical Christian, had made sexual or romantic overtures to them when they were teenagers and he was in his 30s. Senator Mitch McConnell of Kentucky, the Republican majority leader, said Mr. Moore should step aside ahead of the Dec. 12 special election if the allegations were true. https://www.nytimes.com/2017/11/09/us/politics/mcconnell-roy-moore-sex-teenagers.html Pence statement: Accusations against Roy Moore "very disturbing" Vice President Mike Pence believes the if the allegations are true that Alabama GOP Senate candidate Roy Moore had a sexual encounter with a 14-year-old when he was 32 disqualify anyone from office, according to Pence's press secretary. "The vice president found the allegations in the story disturbing and believes, if true, this would disqualify anyone from serving in office," Pence press secretary Alyssa Farah said in a statement to CBS News. https://www.cbsnews.com/news/mike-pence-roy-moore-allegations-disqualify-anyone-from-office/ Alabama governor resigns amid sex scandal What began as a sex scandal that cost him his 50-year marriage ended with Alabama Gov. Robert Bentley's (R) resignation Monday, hours after he pled guilty to two misdemeanor crimes. http://thehill.com/homenews/state-watch/328190-alabama-governor-resigns-amid-sex-scandal
  19. Where would John Kasich fall on that graph ? I supported him . I want bipartisan statesmen in Congress and WH
  20. None of the above. Independent - moderate skeptical of far left and far right
  21. The pictures set me off without reading , I should know better. Massacres like that takes it toll on everyone , sorry I misunderstood.
  22. Iran threatens to hit Saudi, Abu Dhabi and Dubai air and sea ports, ships more missiles to Yemeni Houthis Military tensions rise in the Gulf region amid Iranian threats and supplies of extended-range missiles to the Yemeni insurgents. Tehran has warned Riyadh that unless the Saudi blockade of Yemeni ports is lifted, Revolutionary Guards missiles supplied to the Yemeni Houthi insurgents will be loosed against the seaports and airfields of Saudi Arabia, Dubai and Abu Dhabi. The warning was forwarded to their governments through the Omani back channel. https://www.debka.com/iran-threatens-hit-saudi-abu-dhabi-dubai-air-sea-ports-ships-missiles-yemeni-houthis/
  23. Keep Holmes the other 3 can go
