  1. Yeah, that whole "it's an issue for the voters of each state, and Roe v. Wade usurped the rights of each state's voters" thing lasted approximately a week after the Dobbs decision.
  2. https://www.foxnews.com/politics/senate-will-no-longer-enforce-dress-code-senators So famous slob Fetterman can adorn the Senate floor in his gym shorts? I know I’m hopelessly old fashioned. But is it too much to at least require something resembling business casual?
  3. We just saw earlier in the game that they overturned a call that a player got out of bounds. So the clock had stopped. Review showed he was down by contact in bounds. Clock should have been running. Solution? By rule, clock runs down 10 seconds. Problem solved
  4. If you’re gonna do it this way, why even make a call on the field? Just say “whether or not it’s a first down is under video review.” There’s no deference to the call on the field anyway.
  5. Exactly. Offense runs 3 plays. Ref spots the ball where he sticks his right foot after each play. Probably a measurement error of at least a couple inches each time. Then on 4th down they bring out the sticks and say he’s an inch short.
  6. Yes, IF the standard is “make your best guess based on the replays.” But that’s not supposed to be the standard! You need clear video evidence to overturn. Which there wasn’t.
  7. WTF! NFL is all legalistic - “clear and convincing video evidence to the contrary” and all that - and then they overturn a call on the field based on some ambiguous video. Happens half a dozen times a week.
  8. Let ‘em have it!!
  9. Well played. Sneaky.
  10. Holy crap, Mac can tie it!
  11. Impatient Tua makes a mistake!
  12. It will take them a full 60 minutes to put up 34 points. Success!
  13. I know Tua is no Josh. but can we admit that he throws a really pretty ball that allows those great receivers to make difficult completions look routine?
  14. It would be sad if Belichick were in any manner a sympathetic figure. really, can he believe the his team is capable of scoring 14 second half points AND stopping Miami cold?
  15. Agreed. I used to think he was playing it up for effect. Now I think he’s just on the spectrum. again, good for him! I don’t think his style would’ve worked in any previous generation. But today’s 20’somethings are different. They seem to relate well to his style. (As long as they’re winning)
  16. Niners and Phins are the 2023 NFL offenses …
  17. Don’t you think a more aggressive D would have resulted in at least one big play? Right now the only thing I see that will stop them is injuries. And those always come.
  18. I like him. Takes all kinds
  19. First Half Takeaways: 1. Belichick’s scheme slowed down the Phins! 2. The Phins are on pace to put up 34 points.
  20. I was in the “they did Brian Flores dirty” camp. Now I see why the did it. He was a fine coach but he wasn’t the guy for this team.
  21. I’m instinctively rooting against the Patriots. I am trying to stick my fingers a wall socket each time I catch myself doing that.
  22. If you’re not a little scared of these Dolphins you’re either lying or a fool.
  23. It looks like we just might have ourselves a QB!
  24. Didn't I tell you Latavius has something left? TOUCHDOWN!
  25. Cook was used properly in the second half of 2022. He's a change of pace guy, not a lead RB.
