  1. Homer Simpson Michael Scott Herb Tarlek Archie Bunker Cliff Clavin … and Lucy
  2. The Mannings are way better than the regular broadcast. I don't know if I'll watch them when the Bills are on, though. Definitely good when there are two random teams playing.
  3. You could say the same thing about the Titans regarding their division. Seems like they'll be in the mix for a top seed in the conference. Week 5 (KC) and week 6 (TEN) are going to tell us a lot.
  4. Dolphins first and always. Don Shula was Belichick. Chair of the competition committee. Then the Pats — who were so good they didn’t need to cheat, but they did it anyhow. The Jets have never been our rivals. Except now and the SB years, we were the blue version of the Jets, and they were the green version of the Bills. Their fans are diehard and obnoxious, and so are we. The one difference is that they love to overhype their team — but they always know deep down just what they’ve got.
  5. Those people fled Haiti and lived in South America for years and now they're going to be sent to Haiti? Should have stayed in Chili.
  6. You just described a game manager. Maybe some day he will become more than a game manager, but today, he's a rookie game manager. Why be afraid of the future?
  7. 1) Troy Aikman 2) Bernie Kosar 3) Joe Montana 4) Eli Manning 5) O.J.
  8. The article doesn’t say anything about pressure from Putin. Seems that they just agreed to stay out of the action. I guess they like Putin. And according to you, Trump likes Putin. Maybe Trump and Apple and Google are all Putin supporters together?!?!
  9. Looks like Google and Apple are Putin supporters. They'd never have agreed with Trump.
  10. Yep, and on the other side of the ball it is real easy to defend when all you need are 4 linemen to create a mess in the backfield.
  11. You missed the point. There are people walking around every day who aren’t vaccinated against any number of diseases. Nobody prohibits them from going anywhere. Frankly, I’m vaccinated and I don’t necessarily disagree with the policy.
  12. Yet they don’t prevent people who have never received a measles vaccine (for example) from going places other than grammar and high school.
  13. The only thought I gave it was that the microphone levels were off. I really barely listened to the color commentary. The Manning broadcast could be good, but why show them watching the game? What a waste of screen space. I’m not tuning in to watch someone watch a game — but I will listen.
  14. I tell ya, we’ve had the memorial on all this morning since it started. Just going in the background on the TV while we go about our respective days. They’re up to “S” and I’m getting pretty broke up. These family members still feel this day so much and I’m there with them. God bless those who left us and those they left behind.
  15. 1. Castro is just as much a logical extension as any other long-term Marxist leader. People lose their freedoms. And please don’t ask for suggestions just to qualify any suggestion made with excuses like American Imperialism — especially in South America where American influence barely exists over the decades that include the Pink Tide years. I never implied that India Walton was going to start a military uprising. I said that one a Socialist come in then the manner of implementing policies becomes necessarily more and more draconian. Why have a dialogue if you’re going to focus on Castro’s violence. You asked for a specific time period. I specifically said Castro in his earliest of years — before any revolution or violence followed. Everyone starts small, Kay. Then when you didn’t like that example, I switched to Evo Morales. You said he “did some good things”. Well there’s a ringing endorsement if I ever heard one. And then you trotted out Military Dictator, Pinochet. 2. Public housing is an available option. I never said to abolish it. Again, you asked for an example. Public housing should be improved to the point where the government has enough credibility to tell any private property owner what to do or how to set a market. You didn’t address the mayoral candidate’s desired result of altering a free market other than to peripherally say that you support rent control. You asked for an example of a socialist policy and I gave you one. There’s a whole entire ton of housing topics and you stretched the conversation to touch on some of them. But you avoided this one. 3. I didn’t call you a 1/6 conspiracist. I was just pointing out the similarities in the 2020 election to this here mayoral race. You were grinding your gears about the tricks being played, and I was agreeing with you. Others think there was some shady stuff that happened in 2020 — and they sound a lot like you. You say the Federal Court decision is probably tainted by a judge who had a preferred outcome, and then hide behind courts to defend the 2020 results. For the record, I believe that Trump lost all on his own. 4. That’s nice. 5. If workers want to privately collect themselves to run a business or a million businesses, then that’s great. Why should the government be involved? We were talking and actually agreeing that Socialism can not be scaled up to fit any large model. And, Kay, I’m not engaging in fearmongering here. And since we primarily agree on this point, if I’m fearmongering then where does that leave you? You would not have asked Q:4 if you didn’t have a notion that any small city success will be used as a catalyst for the growth of your preferred political governing style. Why else would all the national news have reported on this but to hold Buffalo up as the example of a city that supports a Socialist — when it really looks like that’s nowhere near the truth. I’m not fearmongering, I just don’t agree with this governing theory and I’m trying to point out my reasons why. Kay, it looks like we primarily agree on 3 of 5 of your questions. You haven’t acknowledged my Q:2 policy example yet, and we seem to disagree on your Q:1. Not bad!
  16. And you volunteered yourself to moderate. How about don't visit the PPP side of the site if you're so put off. You don't seem to show up on the football side.
