If a professional athlete is your kid's role model you've failed as a parent.

I have not watched any pre-season so please excuse my ignorant question. - does Allen have Happy feet in the pocket. - does he step up in the pocket and go through his read progressions. - is he bailing early and running. -is the term (McBean) on this board used in a derogatory way. If so, how many wins will it take for it to stop?

that is awesome

Without taxes how would you pay your city/county/state/federal employees? I'm not talking about the politicians, I mean police/fire/teachers/garbage men.

That's PRESIDENT Trump to you, sir.

You entertain me.

HA!!!

He's also your president. Making America great again!

So?

And?

HA! Awesome.

Pasta Joe? Is that you?

Thank you.

Anyone knowledgeable on how doctors in countries with a socialized medical system get paid? Are they considered federal employees? Are they paid similar to our government employees, based on rank/GS level and time in service? If so, is that not a large reason why doctors from other countries come to America in the first place? If we go to a socialized medical system does the government have the ability to cap the amount they will pay for services provided by doctors, also capping what doctors are able to earn? Is it probable that this could push future medical students into fields where their income potential could be higher and also greatly reduce the number of doctors coming in from other countries? Do we not already have a shortage of doctors in our country? Please excuse my ignorance, I'm hoping someone smarter than I can educate me.

Must be Trump's fault....

This can't be it...

Sounds like things worked out for you in the long run, congrats.

You're absolutely right, I missed his point, and apparently yours. Help me out, what are they? I can't find them...

You missed the point. Any soldier from any generation who served honerably for 20+ years and retired deserves the same benefits and entitlements that I do. Those that haven't, do not, the generation they are is not relevant.

We were Rakkasans at the same time. I was the BDE Air NCOIC during the 08 deployment under Caracillo. We probably know each other.

I'm retired Army. A kid that was chaptered in year three of a six year contract for being fat/unable to maintain military standards/unable to pass a physical fitness test is not entitled to the same benefits that I receive. Nor should they be. But they'll piss and moan about it.

I use the VAs in Nashville and Clarksville, TN. Both are top notch, no complaints. I think the problems of years past have mostly been fixed. My experience is that today's complaints are mostly kids bitching about services they can't get and haven't earned.

Make military service mandatory and I'll be on board with you. Earn that socialized handout.

Do you think it's possible that private schools could offer a better education than public schools? If so, do you think those that can afford it should have the option of sending their kids there? If not, why?

Genuinely curious, why?
