Active shooter at Florida high school
elroy16 replied to Canadian Bills Fan's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
So since the CIA/FBI/Obama/Hillary/Comey/Mueller/etc are all running this deep state government, are attempting to overthrow Trump with their coup, spying on civilians, and are trying to cover it up, it's OK that the right covers up a wife beater and Trump bragged about grabbing women by the kitty or walking into pageant changing rooms? Do I have that right or what am I missing? -

Where was the morality when the White House tried to cover up a wife beater, attempted to promote him, and then defended him when he quit. Trump is a self admitted sex offender and the right calls him a blessing from God. -

Front page of WashingtonPost.com https://www.washingtonpost.com/local/no-there-havent-been-18-school-shooting-in-2018-that-number-is-flat-wrong/2018/02/15/65b6cf72-1264-11e8-8ea1-c1d91fcec3fe_story.html?utm_term=.c74ed4f95082 Yes, one example. I'm sure you can find 10 that shows the liberal media pushing "facts" that are taken out of context, but let's be real here. The liberal media is far from the only medium that does this. Conservative politicians are guilty as hell of doing this. They loved talking up the WalMart bonuses that they handed out after the tax cut while conveniently ignoring that it was only for employees that had been there for over 20 years and that they also closed a bunch of Sam's Clubs at the same time. The same thing happened with AT&T. Trump talked over and over about how he saved the Carrier plants from moving to Mexico. Guess what, now they're laying off workers, but does Trump mention that? Of course not. So please spare me how the awful, evil, liberal MSM doesn't tell you all the facts. -

That's how the right gets everyone thinking they "need" guns in their home to protect themselves from those scary immigrants and robbers. -

Yes, that list is incredibly long. If the government actually gave a **** about people dying, health care would be a lot more affordable. Yes, you're right. It doesn't stop the fact that stricter gun laws could prevent some of these, while still allowing responsible citizens from acquiring guns if they so choose. -

Ok fine, then they should create an amendment or do whatever they have to do to make buying semi-automatic rifles more difficult. https://www.sevendaysvt.com/vermont/the-gun-how-i-bought-an-ar-15-in-a-five-guys-parking-lot/Content?oid=3421127 Can't we agree that buying a AR-15 shouldn't be that easy and something should be done about it? -

Not sure if you're being sarcastic or not, but I think that's much close to the truth than 18. I'm in my early 30's and fully admit I wasn't very mature until 26 or later. Can't we admit that something that was written over 200 years ago might not be completely applicable to today? Is there anything in the 2nd amendment protecting the purchase of semi-automatic rifles at gun shows? -

I can't argue against that. I edited my post to include military duty. That should be 21 as well. -

Hell no. The average 18 year old is a moron. Voting, military duty, drinking, and smoking should be 21. Gun ownership 25. -

What's unreasonable about semi-auto rifles only being legally purchased from gun stores after a 30 day waiting period and a background check? The war on drugs is stupid as **** and as long as a ton of money is dumped into stopping marijuana from being smoked, it will continue to be a huge waste of money and time. If they legalized marijuana and used some of the taxes and the rest of their time to focus on heroine and cocaine, they'd make better progress. -

Fair enough. I've seen the "he bought the gun illegally, so what can you do" argument way too !@#$ing many times. There's literally dozens of things you can do. It won't stop them completely, but you can get the number of mass shootings way, way down. The fact that the government still hasn't done anything over the past 5 years or so has shredded just about every last bit of hope I had for any real change. I apologize for attacking you, it was done in haste which is not an excuse. -

That's the spirit! Are drugs an issue in America? Of course! Build a wall to stop drugs, more law enforcement, harsher penalties! Are guns an issue in America? Of course, but there's absolutely nothing you can do about it, so don't even try! -
Part of me wonders if they don't like his personality or if there's something behind the scenes we don't know about. They could have had him for basically the same amount they're paying Smith (had they signed him 2 years ago). I asked some friends for their thoughts (since I live in the DC area) and they are all pissed at the FO and think they blew it. They want Cousins to win a SB against Washington (I'm sure that would actually change) because they hate the way he was treated here. I don't know, interesting situation.

I think the whole "can't throw from the pocket" narrative is lazy and not accurate at all. There's maybe two throws in that reel that aren't from the pocket and those were off of immediate pressure. Otherwise he's staying in the pocket and going through his progressions. He's already 10x the passer Tyrod is. If you watched those highlights of Tyrod at VT, it's the same thing we've seen him do here, make a read or two, scramble around, and then make a throw. Jackson can and is willing to put the ball in tight spots. I'd definitely take Jackson at 21, but I'm not convinced he'll be there.

That's not 100% accurate. https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/politics/2018/01/09/dossier-author-told-fbi-had-source-inside-trump-organization/1017938001/ http://www.cnn.com/2017/04/18/politics/fbi-dossier-carter-page-donald-trump-russia-investigation/index.html The only way to know what's really happening is to see the full FISA surveillance application.

No issues from me either, but I know Bud and his staff have been blamed for injuries in the past on here.

Cardillo's tweet is inaccurate and misleading. https://www.nytimes.com/2017/06/08/us/politics/senate-hearing-transcript.html Comey never says the dossier is salacious and unverified. At best, he says there is salacious and unverified material in the dossier, but he doesn't say the dossier is salacious and unverfieid in full, which is what Cardillo implies. I say at best, because in the testimony they don't reference the dossier during this question and answer, so he could be referencing information gathered through different means.

In-Depth Breakdown of Lamar Jackson by Eliot Crist
elroy16 replied to DCOrange's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
That's true, appreciate the response. I watched all his throws/run video versus Miss St, his o-line did not help much that game. I liked what I saw though. As you said, definitely examples of staying in a congested pocket and making quick throws. -
In-Depth Breakdown of Lamar Jackson by Eliot Crist
elroy16 replied to DCOrange's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Jackson looks like an intriguing prospect. I've watched a limited about of him, but he looks more decisive throwing the ball than Tyrod and throws to the middle of the field and up the seam. He looks more willing to throw into tight windows against zone versus Tyrod. His accuracy on short and intermediate throws looks pretty good, not as much on deep. When he hits receivers, they can actually gain yardage. One question, does he have happy feet? We've seen Tyrod bail on a fairly clean pocket a bunch of times over the past three years. Does Lamar do that? Can Lamar navigate a small pocket to buy time? -

Source: Major Bills news coming next week
elroy16 replied to SaviorPeterman's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Tyrod was at a basketball game with Shady a few days after the season ended. I don't know if he'd be at that type of event if his concussion was that bad. I'm thinking Clay. He's had some back issues, maybe they found something at the exit physical. -
Bills analytics department fired/restructured
elroy16 replied to ricojes's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I agree that analytics works better with baseball, but there's no question there's room for it in football. Follow this guy on twitter, @SharpFootball or go to his website. http://SharpFootballAnalysis.com He collects a ton of data and breaks down tendencies, effective rates, and a ton of other stuff. Following him really showed how terrible Haley was in Pittsburgh and how terrible Hackett was in the second half of the NE game. I'm sure there are people who can pick up on this stuff without needing a site to break it down, but games run together in my head, so sites like this are great for me. -
1-23: Beane, McDermott, and Daboll from the Senior Bowl
elroy16 replied to 26CornerBlitz's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
How do you guys know Castillo is so terrible and the drop in production wasn't just Dennison's poor play calling and forcing power/man blockers to run a scheme they weren't good at?
