  1. I think to Zimbabweans, Cecil the Lion isn't even the least important problem in the world, and yet it gets substantially more coverage, attention and outrage here than the real problems they face everyday.

     

    Imagine if real problems got all the coverage, attention and outrage that was given to a lion which, about a week ago, was unknown to virtually everyone.

    So you don't think the real problems that they face get any coverage? All the "real" problems in the world never really go away. I'm sure it's hard for the media to focus on and constantly make new stories on issues that really never go away or change very slowly. The Cecil story is a blip and we will all move on to the next thing, it's how it works. Ever go on Facebook? People talk about more than the deepest issues

    The problem is, it is being focused on like it IS THEE most important problem in the world.

    Given the chance, what do think that lion would do? Yeah, poor little kitty Cecil. Hold hands and sing kumbaya w/the dentist? It's a dead lion, you can focus on it... Just don't get all emotional and blow it out proportional like he kicked the family pet or something... Or put a ton of human traits on the lion. It is humans that are suffering in Zimbabwe. Way too much time on people's hands and such a First World problem to worry and focus on. Focus all you want, but it is wasted energy, unproductive energy. Focus on something that will actually help people. Everybody that is butt hurt over this should all donate 100 bucks to the people of Zimbabwe. That should catapult Zimbabwe to Sweden status! Ha! If they are going to fault the hunt, then off set the cost spent w/some do-re-mi.

    The wackos @ PETA have a lot recruits I see. It's what keeps them going.

    So you think 10 years from now people will still be talking about Cecil? I'm sure people will still be talking about about poor people in Africa

    You guys are too funny. As if the Bills of the 90s were a bunch of choir boys. The only difference now is that everything gets out on the intarwebs.

     

    This team isn't going to rise or fall because of some players who don't simply follow your preconceived notion of what a "good guy" should do. The best teams have the right mix of guys on the edge and guys who are leaders.

    Well, maybe if they were choir boys they would have won one of those SB's.... It must take a high character team to win it all, like those cowboy teams...

  3. It's getting a little obnoxious, at this point. I think it's pretty obvious that Goodell know what he wants to do. Is he just afraid of the inevitable sh**storm that WILL occur-- regardless of the decision? C'mon, Goodell! Get yr balls out of granny's purse!!!

     

    No. In the year that Brady blew his knee out in the first game, BB and the Pats* still had a good season. And that was with some no-name backup QB. I don't even remember his name... Matt something...

    Yeah, I think you're right... But if I remember correctly that no name QB made the pro bowl a year or two after

  4. MY SON ALWAYS BOUGHT THEIR RECORDS GROWING UP. I NEVER GOT IT. HE LOOKS LIKE A GIRL, AND YOU CAN'T EVEN UNDERSTAND WHAT THEYRE SAYING!!!! ITS LIKE THAT DANG RAP MUSIC!!! GIVE ME PAT BOONE ANY DAY OF THE WEEK!!! WHATEVER HAPPENED TO MUSIC LIKE THAT??????

    Shirl, I'd like to congratulate both you and Howard on how tech savy you are- it's very refreshing. Please just don't try to post to TBD while walking the mall, it's dangerous...
