  1. He must not be allowed back until his spleen is good to go.
  2. I just hope they don't rush him back before he is 100%.
  3. The NFL has many decades experience with playing fields, how in the world could they screw this up ?
  4. GM Mickey Loomis signed him away from Seattle in 2012, but Hawthorne proved a mediocre run defender and was always a huge liability in coverage. http://www.rotoworld.com/player/nfl/5029/david-hawthorne
  5. Keeping it Ralph Wilson Stadium shows the Pegulas are a class act , not like most other owners where only profits matter.
  6. EJ and Cardale will have to play more preseason if Glenn is out.
  7. I wonder why Kroy Biermann is still a FA
  8. Dallas is desperate on D and they won't take Hardy back .
  9. Rex bringing in ED Reed so far is making a big difference for confidence on D
  10. As long as Glenn is ok for the regular season . Give Kujo and any other dark horse OT a chance to get experience for depth till then. Just hope Henderson can recover and be back at RT or LT if needed.
  11. This is good news , F5 on Monday
  12. British troops in UK ordered not to wear uniforms outside of their bases DEBKAfile August 4, 2016, 11:03 AM (IDT) The British army on Wednesday ordered its troops in the UK not to wear their uniforms while outside their bases due to concern that they will be attacked or abducted. The order was released immediately after a security-related incident at Aldershot garrison in Hampshire, southern Britain, in which several people in a Renault Clio followed a civilian working at one of the bases in the area, and then tried to attack and abduct him. The man escaped, wrote down the license plate of the vehicle and contacted the police. Two weeks ago, two men with a knife tried to abduct a soldier serving at Marham airbase in eastern Britain as he was jogging outside the base at night, but they fled after the soldier struggled with them . They were described as having Middle Eastern appearances. The order not to wear uniforms, including while traveling to or from the bases, sparked a wave of angry responses on social networks, with many calling the step a surrender to terror. http://www.debka.com/newsupdatepopup/17411/British-troops-in-UK-ordered-not-to-wear-uniforms-outside-of-their-bases
  13. Iran knows how to play the U.S. for there propagaga advantage, I give them credit for that.
  14. The $400 million was paid in foreign currency because any transaction with Iran in U.S. dollars is illegal under U.S. law. Sanctions also complicate Tehran’s access to global banks. The Iranians were demanding the return of $400 million the Shah’s regime deposited into a Pentagon trust fund in 1979 to purchase U.S. fighter jets, U.S. officials said. They also wanted billions of dollars as interest accrued since then.

  15. AUG 4 2016, 2:37 AM ET Supreme Court Blocks Transgender Bathroom Ruling Wednesday's order means the student, Gavin Grimm, will not be able to use the restroom of his choice when school starts. http://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/supreme-court-blocks-transgender-bathroom-ruling-n622476
  16. Chiefs agree to terms with former Rams QB Nick Foles http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap3000000679576/article/chiefs-agree-to-terms-with-former-rams-qb-nick-foles
  17. Trump spokeswoman: Obama probably caused Khan's death Donald Trump campaign spokeswoman Katrina Pierson said President Obama, who took office in 2009, may be to blame for Capt. Humayun Khan's death in 2004. http://www.cnn.com/videos/politics/2016/08/03/katrina-pierson-obama-trump-khan-war-cooper-intv-ac.cnn
  18. Needing room for players at WR and RB , I would think Gay is gone unless really needed during season.
  19. Rob Ryan fired ( Dallas ), says he’ll have a new job “in like 5 minutes” https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/early-lead/wp/2013/01/09/rob-ryan-fired-says-hell-have-a-new-job-in-like-5-minutes/ They both now realise this season they have to put up not brag.
  20. Ukraine, once one of Russia’s biggest foreign gas buyers, had a debt of more than $29 billion before Tuesday’s bill, according to Gazprom. Naftogaz has demanded almost $26 billion from Gazprom in Stockholm arbitration, https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2016-01-19/russia-boosts-ukraine-gas-bill-to-32-billion-after-supply-stop Ukraine is a massive country with 45M population. I would have tried to strike a deal with Putin , erase natural gas bill, long term contract at very good rate. Add in the cost of Chernobyl disaster https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chernobyl_disaster In exchange for Crimea and eastern territory now a costly war zone.
  21. A bridge contract based on good incentives is the safe way to go for now.
  22. This is even better then listening to John Murphy play by play , and I like Murph. What a great job you do Astro ! many thanks
  23. My question meant , what if a safe air corridor is not granted by Turkey
  24. If you get a chance to watch Watters World on Fox News , it's very troubling. Asking young people (20's) outside DNC to name pictures of presidents like Reagan, Carter, George H , they did not have a clue. Sad state of education to say the least.
  25. What if airspace is closed ? No flights in or out? "Late Saturday night all access to the military base by NATO personnel was apparently restricted and airspace over the area has been closed."
