Every state certified their results, including several with republican legislatures and/or governors. The Justice Department saw no evidence of fraud to the extent of affecting outcomes, nor did other federal agencies. The courts turned down all but one of the lawsuits because no evidence was cited to support the fraud claims. And if you recall, the last election a committee chaired by the Vice President was put together to supposedly address all the fraud in elections, and was disbanded when nothing was found. Trump lost. He, you, and all others of your ilk need to accept it and move on.

I live just outside Indy. Having a lot of fun with my Colts friends. The overall impression I'm getting is they think the Colts will run the ball down our throats, and that their defense can stop Allen and the boys. As to the former point, I tell them I am a little worried about their run game but that our D has played much better the last half of the year, and that we'll force them to beat us with Rivers, who will gag like he usually does in the playoffs. As to them saying they can slow down Allen et al, I just laugh.

As one of the old timers here, I can recall a time when QBs were allowed to learn their craft. But what we have now is a society where everyone expects exactly what they want RIGHT NOW. In an era of drive thru windows, the Internet giving instant access to whatever, and so on, patience has become an all too precious commodity.

First of all, I have never called WGR or any other radio show, despite being a fan from 1960. Second some coaches have stunk and I was one who, just as an example, called for Ryan get canned. Third, McD has been here 4 years, not 38. This has nothing to do with McD being above critical thinking. You don’t like the way McD answers questions, and you don’t like the way reporters ask. To which my response is: that’s just too damn bad. You seem to think you have some sort of right to having McD communicate exactly the way you demand because you’re a fan. That is simply wrong. McD is not going to give information on Beasley until Friday in all probability, and he shouldn’t because it would make the Colts game planning potentially easier. And I suspect the reporters know by now that bugging him about it won’t get him to be more forthcoming. Your queries about how he sounded, or whether his tone was X or Y, reminds me of junior high girls gossiping about the cute boy in class. We will know about it when they tell us, and they will tell us: a). when they actually know whether he can go (I am sure they are doing whatever they can to get him ready), and b). when they have to do so. Period. And if he can’t go, I like everyone else will not like it, but such is football. And the next guy steps up, like say a Mckenzie who if memory serves correct did an OK job yesterday.

Why are you so obsessed with this? McD does not have to match his words to your personal preferences. Beasley has an injury, I am sure everything is being done that can be, and we’ll see what happens. Meanwhile, without Beasley yesterday the starters hung 28 points in one half on one of the better defenses in the league playing for their playoff lives.

Round 1 Playoff: Colts at Bills - Sat. 1/9 1:05pm
oldmanfan replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I live just outside Indy. They’re a pretty sound team overall. Their rookie RB is really good and their O line is solid. But the way our offense is playing we should score, and Rivers will screw up like he does in big games. I’ll be wearing my Bills gear and being obnoxious all week! -

The Next Pandemic: SARS-CoV-2/COVID-19
oldmanfan replied to Hedge's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
Two weeks out and no issues at all. I think people misconstrue the term mitigation. Masks aren’t perfect not are they a guarantee. If we all wear them and do so correctly they, along with other mitigating strategies, will severely limit spread. -

The Next Pandemic: SARS-CoV-2/COVID-19

And people say the same thing about Indiana, but they din’t. And they don’t in Cali. I guarantee it. -
The Next Pandemic: SARS-CoV-2/COVID-19
oldmanfan replied to Hedge's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
Nope. The virus is transmitted primarily by droplet and aerosol. The masks catch that before it happens. I know you think everyone is wearing masks and wearing them correctly, but that is not the case, at least as I see where I live. And this virus is extremely contagious; it doesn’t need much of a crack in the door to get through. Went to the grocery store today. While in the checkout line I counted two people without masks and 10 with them pulled down away from their nose and/or mouth. And that’s why we can’t win the war. -
One of the best of the AFL days. So sad to see he’s gone.

Looking for any kind of an excuse to bash the coach is pathetic. Beasley got hurt because he ran a pattern and took a bad step trying to make a catch. How many hundreds if not thousands of patterns has he run this year? It’s football, it happens. And if he had an injury requiring surgery they’d have done it by now. Calm the hell down.

Got it. My bad. -

I do all the above. I am helping the economy especially by frequenting small businesses in my community. I have had my normal income all year; give my share to a small business trying to stay afloat or a family having trouble feeding their kids. And you want pass judgment on me? Look in the mirror.
