  1. Does that include late term abortions? That's where I struggle when other lives are at stake which is kind of the crux of the vaccine debate.
  2. Not a bad comparison but luckily we have two more years to evaluate Edmunds. I wouldn't make him the highest paid LB in the league right now though if he threatened to hold out like Peters did.
  3. That's why there's an automatic recount if the votes are within .1% of each other. I think you mean Republicans. Just looking at the raw numbers you're probably right as it looks like the majority of people who voted third party in 2016 voted for Biden in 2020. Trump beat Hillary 48.08% to 44.58% in 2016. Biden beat Trump 49.36% to 49.06% in 2020. I always thought attacking a dead McCain as president was a bold strategy to ensure reelection in Arizona.
  4. So, 200 out of 3.4 million. That's a whopping .006%. Trump would've only lost the state by by 10,257 votes. God you people are paranoid.
  5. I'm done debating masks. I've yet to see convincing data that mask mandates are effective outside the N95 ones. If you're vaccinated you're unlikely to catch it from the unvaccinated. Even if you do it's extremely unlikely you'll be hospitalized or die. All mask mandates will do is increase the friction between the vaccinated and the unvaccinated which is the last thing our country needs. Get these vaccines FDA approved and at least you'll get some who aren't TFG to get vaccinated. Plus, it gives employers more cover to demand employees are vaccinated.
  6. That the vaccines work. Those conniving SOB's.
  7. Yup. It’s a fruitless effort. The sooner people realize it the better.
  8. Yes. It doesn’t matter though as there will be too much external pressure on politicians if hospitalizations and deaths are high enough.
  9. If cases spike enough even red state governors are going to have to take measures like this. Just get the damn vaccine as they're obviously extremely effective at preventing hospitalizations and deaths.
  10. This is ridiculous. They better not start this crap in WNY because of the selfish minority.
  11. Patriots will always be our biggest threat as long as BB is at the helm. The Brown acquired a lot of picks over the years but were never able to find their QB. Even now I'm not convinced Mayfield is the guy. Same will go for the Fins.
  12. You're risking paradoxes there Chef.
  13. You knew John Adams? How old are you?
  14. Nothing. I don't know if he wants to coach in the NFL. He is unemployed though, has experience in this system, is well liked by the organization, and many former QB's become QB coaches. He'd be hard pressed to find a job that pays more if he does retire.
  15. Aaron Donald and George Kittle come to mind. Hard to tell.
  16. Stanford degree too with a 4.2 GPA.
  17. Interesting. I always found them generally cordial and upbeat.
  18. First you have to be aware of it which apparently about half the population isn't. Then you have to have a clear difference of opinion between the two races which isn't the case at all. When it comes to teaching CRT to the youth of America, those who say they are familiar with the concept have split views, with 37 percent in favor of teaching it in public schools and 43 percent opposed. When narrowing it down to just parents who say they are familiar with the concept: 50 percent are for adding it to the curriculum vs. 31 percent against. Roughly half of White voters familiar with CRT oppose teaching the theory in schools (48 percent), while nearly half of nonwhite voters support it (49 percent support). So...NO!!!! CRT will not be the catalyst for a race war especially since we're empirically less racist today than anytime in our history.
  19. I think he's closer to needing a walker than playing in the NFL. He'll be 37 in August which is 73 in football years for TE's. Having said that, I'd at least bring him in for a workout.
  20. Context seems a little one sided. Even if I took everything you said at face value I’d still expect the sitting POTUS to rise above it instead of whining about imaginary rigged communist backed voting machines.
  21. Beane's biggest mistake this offseason was not resigning Roberts so I went with KR/PR as field position is huge. You really couldn't match what's basically a one year 2.6 million dollar deal?
  22. You'd reject an Edmunds trade for Darius Leonard and a first? Are you nuts?
  23. This is actually a good article and mostly aligns with my views. It doesn't let Trump off the hook like so many on here are trying to do. It also recognizes it's a political club being used by Democrats trying to keep it alive Benghazi style. Second, I bow to nobody in my view that the Capitol riot was indefensible, that it involved lawbreaking and both real and threatened violence, that it targeted and disrupted an essential process in the peaceful transition of power, and that Donald Trump bears moral and political responsibility for it. Trump was responsible not only for his incendiary speech but for a two-month course of conduct consisting of (1) claiming, loudly and falsely, that the election was stolen; (2) continuing to contest the election result through every available forum for two months; (3) not limiting his contest of the election to the legally legitimate channels for an election contest; (4) focusing attention on the in-person gathering of the entire Congress and the vice president to count the electoral votes on January 6 as a point of vulnerability to mob pressure; and (5) specifically violating his oath to the Constitution by the attempt to get the vice president to unilaterally prevent the counting of electoral votes. I said at the time, and still believe, that Trump was properly impeached for this and should have been convicted. I said at the time, and still believe, that the maximum available punishments should be used against everyone who broke the law that day, in order to show for all time that this should never be repeated. I said at the time, and still believe, that a great many societies in human history would rationally have reacted to such an event by placing the heads of Trump and the rioters on pikes around the Capitol as a warning to others. He also realizes the cynical play by the Dems which could be effective as Trump continues to get back into the public eye when the Republican politicians are dying to move on from him. The temptation to keep January 6 alive as a never-ending partisan club in order to preserve the Trump-centric voter dynamics of the 2020 election and avoid contesting the 2022 elections around the current president and the current Congress. That undoubtedly is why unprincipled political operatives seem devoted to the “January 6 was worse than September 11” talking point. Never mind that 3,000 Americans died; the important thing is that Republicans won the 2002 and 2004 elections on the strength of George W. Bush’s response to the September 11 attacks. For Democrats still sore at that — and in particular for Democrats who were Republicans then and see money to be made now off January 6 — the desire to repeat that has overwhelmed their basic sense of decency and proportion.
