  1. Denied bail for counselling mischief? If you think that is reasonable you and I will never agree
  2. Yes Putin is a bad man, I think you are the only person on here arguing otherwise
  3. What else was she charged with?
  4. I thought him also but if Sportrac is correct he will make $12 millions year and I think that is too rich for what we want to do
  5. https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jama/fullarticle/2788346 You seriously are unaware of the myocarditis link in young people from the vaccine? You are literally 6 months behind the times and still come to the wrong conclusion
  6. How else should we get our news? And please enlighten us on what is happening there?
  7. It is unfortunate that Billstime feels the need to not offer any actual solutions, just complain about problems. His complaint about the don't say gay bill is telling because only two options exist- he believes that schools should be discussing sex with 1st graders because the bill only applies to primary schools or just as bad he is so gullible he is leading the charge against something he has never seen or read.
  8. I might not be an expert on Washington football but with or without Young last year they were not dominant l, and he did not pop off screen when I did watch. He is good but I don't think he is like Kahlil Mack impact good.
  9. I am not good at determining which CB plays the right style for our defense but if a CB is not the BPA at that point in draft I will be surprised. This appears to be a deep draft for CBs from what I am reading and we could certainly use another one if Wallace leaves.
  10. I would take Tyrod to start in Detroit, Chicago, Steelers, Giants, and Carolina as constituted right now. You pick him to steady the team while trying to find better. Don't forget we were paying him 18 a year a few years ago.
  11. He will not be a first choice but someone who needs a quality backup- like Houston became a year ago
  12. I think your point is correct but we need a cheap backup and I bet Tyrod still gets 8-10 million a year offer
  13. Two points: one it is a letter to the editor, so not an article but also I think it is sarcastic because it says that Goddell should fire himself and appoint a black man also. I wish I was more certain it was sarcasm.
  14. I believe we will do these things which help us greatly: 1) get Beasley to take less money to stay, which I think he does since so many WR are available this year. 2) restructuring Diggs, Dawkins and Williams to free up some cash. 3) spend money for an impact Edge rusher around 10 million a year. 4) drafting the best CB in draft with first pick, since DB draft is deep.
  15. Tibs can't admit Biden was one of the leaders of the Senate to drive us into that war, why do you think anything else you mention matters? I recommend just talking to wall since it will be more logical that Tibs.
  16. The fact that you will believe that a student in NY is safer than a student in Idaho makes you gullible. NYC has over 500 high schools and 20 or less are top notch, about 80 are decent and 400 are complete garbage. I have a school down the street that has international students at it. A few schools does make the whole district work.
  17. I like the fact that you want to discuss states but not local deep blue places, NYC has some of the worst schools in the country but the more conservative areas raise the whole state. Even in GA the lowest scores are in deep blue ATL. My point was clear as is your inability to respond.
  18. I am sorry but this list is complete garbage, in what world is a NY student safer than an Idaho student? Not just a little safer but much safer? (10 vs 50) that being said judging schools on numbers without mainly discussing results is not very valid.
  19. @Tiberius or @Backintheday544 I am truly hoping you can give me some thoughts on how we can fix schools that can be acceptable to your beliefs? As I stated in Orange County right now every failing school is in a blue section of town, how do we fix it?
  20. The amount of people on here who seem to enjoy being made to look stupid by the media is astounding. I doubt anyone one here thinks Trump is a paragon of virtue but all of these threads about him without any actual evidence just innuendo make me think critical thinking is not your something Kemp or Billsy attempt very often.
  21. You might not be aware that all Trudeau won was one district where he got 25k votes. After that it was the parties that voted him as leader.
  22. These are definitely two of the larger reasons, I maintain high standards because it is important to me but the difference in raise between a top 5% teacher in my district and barely top 80% teacher is exactly $0. Thankfully I have been able to ensure my kids have the top tier teachers each year.
  23. I am not simply trying to score political points here but today we received the list of schools in Orange County Florida that can start recruiting teachers in order to help improve their academic standing. These schools that performing poorly are all in the Democrat voting sections of town. Literally not one is is in a red voting part of town and most of them are in the darkest blue on the voting map. This is not along racial lines because many of the well performing schools have a white minority, but there is a definite voting pattern commonality. https://www.orlandosentinel.com/politics/os-ne-2020-10-year-history-20201030-mr2eyronafbd3bmo2s3x43quae-htmlstory.html As for how to fix it? Allow teachers to hold kids to standards, allow schools to throw out kids who are repeat problems, and stop pretending a school should raise a child.
  24. The quality of parenting in this country is splitting into two distinct camps and it feels like it is becoming more 50/50 when I think I was a kid it was 80/20. Some parents legitimately think it is a schools and societies job to raise their children, while I believe that school should educate them in topics I can't and I raise them. The better schools generally have the parents like me, and the lessor schools have the other. But as far as good teachers at bad schools not many exist anymore because they are not allowed to enforce rules, if the principal from "Stand by Me" tried to fix those schools he would be stopped by federal laws. Last point, I had a discussion with a black student who told me that they call the police 7-8 times a year when they have family disagreements, how do I teach life skills to a person who thinks calling the police is acceptable but then bashes police for being racist?
  25. Reading the details of trial reminds of how messed up our trial system can be. Instead of simply laying out facts both sides are trying for a narrative that is 10% fact based and the rest story time. Dude is hopefully found guilty.
