He’s going to be a force for a decade special, special talent

Being the purview of the right? Obviously I disagree.

What's always been what way?

I think if you knew me you would discover I am none of those things.

Your view on today's America is that supporting racial equality and free speech are the purview of the right wing? Or that it's weird that views and societies evolve over time?

Let's be clear: what you are doing is taking it upon yourself to cast aspersions on folks who reacted to a story and attributing to them some ill intent, rather than accepting them at face value. Please explain who in your mind should be 'manning up'

Where? Who?

Shame. I think folks of all kind could benefit from more empathy.

I'm guessing a noose, however unintentionally placed, doesn't carry the same historical weight with you as it would with others. And I'd think about that before I went around mocking what folks consider 'righteous anger'.

And yet...here we are. I am personally relieved. You?

I have no idea what this means.

Why would anybody be disappointed that a hate crime actually hadn't been committed?

This is largely a misrepresentation of King's methods, and is often used deliberately to suppress or discredit the various forms of legitimate dissent over the years. His major point, in speaking to the obstacles inherent in establishing societal change and the manner with which they are achieved, was that the greatest hurdle was '...the white moderate who is more devoted to order than to justice; who prefers a negative peace which is the absence of tension to a positive peace which is the presence of justice; who constantly says, ‘I agree with you in the goal you seek, but I can't agree with your methods of direct action.’

All I took this is that Andy Reid can cure cancer

Don't tase me bro!

And Chuck Norris > both

What game was this?

Yes and it wasn't just that they trolled the song, I think some of the guys after the game said McD had played it during practices and walkthroughs that week in preparation. It was overall a great win and there's no need to knock it imo.

They were iirc coming off 3 straight wins

I don't think Chiefs win the SB or even get there w/out Mathieu, Berry was old and he revitalized that defense although I credit his run support as much as his pass defense chops

That’s true. I still think the Steelers were a much better coached, way more cohesive unit when we beat them than were the Cowboys. Neither of them were great teams top to bottom but the Pitt game was far more significant imo.

The Steelers defense was playing at arguably the highest level in the league at the time.

Yes to your point that neither party has claim to the moral high ground re: concrete improvement of minority rights. Also agree and said initially that there are folk of all races and creeds (not to mention sexual orientation etc) that were/are marginalized, I just don't think trying to figure out who is more oppressed is worth much discussion because it clouds the issue and isn't really the point wrt civil rights.

And you certainly don't pay an RB first. Like, ever imo
