  1. @Bill, i think it's time to take a step back bro.
  2. Happy birfday!
  3. Ohhhh. That may be the only thing that can save him.
  4. If I was Fromm, I’d double down on the insanity and post a picture of my junk. Two negatives make a positive kind of thing.
  5. i'm having a tough time with this too.
  6. people don't know about the terms of service before they sign up? it would probably just be better if you admitted your comment was a bit off, and just move on.
  7. i'm really not. you just don't have any leg to stand on here. they are choosing to sign up. people do it for many reasons already listed. they're not doing it for free, correct? the military provides it's personnel with something, (whether it be education or cash) and in return, you follow orders. this isn't hard. don't try to make it complicated.
  8. but who has the gun to their head, telling them to sign up? it's a choice. not a single human who signs up for the military thinks they're going to go in and do what they want.
  9. but ultimately it's still a choice. if someone wants education and advancement, along with pay through the military, they shouldn't be shocked that they may have to follow through with some orders. the military is a choice. there are other ways to advance, but the military is a great way of doing it.
  10. people go into the military only because they want to be told what to do? something about this doesn't seem right.
  11. aren't you making the choice when you sign on the dotted line? i've never served, but i assumed if someone did, they were very aware of what may happen when they enlist.
  12. we have people on this board who do the very same thing.
  13. i went to st. rita's! when i was a kid that carnival was the best. i went a few years ago and it was a complete reduction of what it once was. also, the jazz festival. that ***** is a blast.
  14. locally i'll miss/missed the fairport canal days and the mendon carnival. I also will miss people watching at the webster firemans carnival. we also love to go to the canadian/american festival in the thousand islands, and that's out the window.
  15. That’s terrible frost. Sorry to hear that.
  16. there's enough talent and coaching on this team to not lose a quarter of the season. i suppose there are injury scenarios that could lead to a slide like that, but otherwise i just can't imagine it happening against those teams.
  17. Just because you AND cbs guessed it, it’s still pretty unlikely. With this staff, I’d say it’s wildly unlikely.
  18. we were going to go to lake george in june, but canceled those. we spend a lot of time up in the thousand islands at sackets harbor. i was there last week, and as beautiful as the weather was, none of the restaurants or bars were open obviously. the problem is a lot will be closed for the entire season. another popular place burned down and there doesn't seem to be any thoughts on rebuilding. even the most popular place is up for sale. there's a large outdoor seating area that looks completely overgrown. i feel between the flooding the lasts couple of years and now covid...the place has really died out.
  19. and this thread just took another interesting turn.
  20. he's earned those gray hairs!
  21. i've learned not to comment on these things.
  22. i agree. it's very much a trend that gets established that's hard to break. using draft picks as bait strikes me as the completely wrong way to accomplish that, as it does others. when it comes to guys like rex ryan, i think some owners see them as "safe bets". they've been coaches before, they've had some success before, they'll make it work again. it's more lazy hiring than racially motivated. it's so weird how that loop of coaches tends to stay intact. there's been move of a movement over the last few years as younger innovators have been hired, but there's no doubt minority coaches have taken the brunt of a large part of this. lol! i got ya. again, i grew up in an old school italian family, and although i was really kept away from that stuff, you knew there were some hardcore dislikes when it came to certain cultures. now...that being said, i still don't think certain people's life experience should give them the right to just assume every white guy that falls in a demographic is a closet racist. i'm a 42 yr old white professional. i am not a racist. i don't say that as a badge of honor...i'm just not. personality is way more off a turnoff to me that someone's race or background. i truly believe that the majority of this board functions in that way too. not everyone, but most people on here strike me as good from out interactions. going to the ppp may change my mind drastically, but it's just easier to ignore that place.
  23. absolutely. socioeconomics facts are such a large part of it. wealth usually means better home life, better education, better medical care, etc.
