Wow. Can't breathe. The stadium turned from a funeral to a wedding within two minutes.

Prices are too high. Relocating two teams to LA instead of potential football hungry markets (Portland, Salt Lake City, Oklahoma City) was shortsighted. Better televisions equals less incentive to go to games. Also, you can't deny that politics does have some influence in the last couple of years. I just don't think it's as severe as people think.

I thought by law they had to be released. Anyways, Ted Cruz's father has just fled the country.

Thanks for the very well thought out critique of the Bush years. I think he was terrible, even if I get the Iraq War; even if I wouldn't have had the balls to do it myself. Hopefully Iraq is on its slow path to being a democracy even while Trump and company are attacking Democratic norms here.
Still, agreeing with his condemnation of bigotry, something I have spoken about again and again on this board, doesn't make me or anyone a hack. Trying to smear people for agreeing with his words might make someone a Trump hack, though.
Did you read Bush's speech? Remember, he didn't run on scapegoating immigrants or even Islamic people. He tried to get Latinos to vote for him. He had many flaws, but that doesn't mean he has nothing to say on the matter
Yes. I heard his speech and I'll admit it was quite brave. White supremacy is bad. Russia is bad. Immigration is good Outsourcing and free trade is good. Foreign intervention is good. Did it take him nine years to write it? Now most on the left are lionizing him because he took subtle jabs at Trump who they hate more at this moment. I just find it pathetic.

Well... looks like Oakland is back to being an L
Tonight's game epitomized how raiders kept winning last season.
And it also emphasized how important it is to have receivers that actually have talent in the 4th quarter of a game.
The Bills are an overachieving team that has to count on their opponents screwing up to win games.
The Raiders are back on a mission and the east coast factor is no longer even an advantage for us when they have extreme momentum and extra rest going in their favor
Oh and did I mention they have hardly any injuries? Probably biggest advantage of all. Carr might still be "recovering" but he just threw for 400 including a game winning drive so he's fine
They gave up 30 points. Our secondary is much better than the Chiefs. We're at home and Oakland has to travel cross country. Relax. It's still a winnable game.
Maybe focus on the Bucs first.

The NFL will never figure out what a catch is.

I don't remember seeing a kicker ever being called for a false start.
-
Not in Buffalo. He might be terrible for three quarters, and then pull off a miracle in the forth.
Thanks for the reminder.

Romo needs to call a Bills playoff game
I have a feeling he'd choke.
-
Peyton Manning needs to do more commercials.

Perhaps you missed his OL standing up for him.
Remember the cheap shot on Aaron Williams last year?
NOTHING. No reaction.
This isn't hockey.

Great, we get a fresh Lynch next week...
He might get a suspension since he ran from the sideline.
-
Hit and run Lynch.
-
Carr wasn't completely down yet.
-
Yes.
I don't know why folks pretend they are a fluke team.
Andy Reid is a heck of a coach.
-
Three play 99 yard drive. No problem.
-
Raiders got lucky there.
-
Raiders offense looks good. Aim for Carr's legs Chiefs.
-
Hunt is being overused. He is going to hit the rookie wall
Well, when your backup is Spiller.........
-
Hunt is special.

Yes, how terrible pointing out that even those in his own party are disgusted and disturbed by this clown.
I have a better idea Doc. Read his words and judge them. Do you agree that bigotry--as I have been saying for how long?--is being used in our political discourse now? I'm glad Bush spoke out. Love how the trumpettes just go on the attack instead of actually reading what he said
Bush Jr. made the biggest foreign policy mistake in at least my lifetime in going to war with Iraq based off faulty intelligence. Twenty-seven democratic senators voted for the Iraq Resolution including Hillary Clinton, John Kerry, and Joe Biden. His administration and Congress also passed the Patriot Act which still lives on today in The US Freedom Act. Surveillance has only increased since its passage and I thought liberals were against mass surveillance. Bush's administration authorized torture of suspected terrorists in Guantanamo Bay and many liberals thought he should go to jail for that.
If you prop up Bush Jr. just because he criticized Trump (who didn't have anything to do with any of the things Bush Jr. did and hasn't done much since entering office) you are a hack.

He's a fool! He lost 14 of 16 after all this began. People who buy into this don't have their mind on the game. IF he was successful, we wouldn't be talking about this!
Can anyone see a Mike Singletary type taking a knee, and then somehow putting his "gamer face" on, and keeping his head in the game, the way we all remember him? It couldn't happen!
When it comes to activism by a black football player my first thought was Jim Brown who said in August he understands what Kaepernick's protesting but disapproves of the method. Here's the quote..... https://www.usatoday.com/story/sports/nfl/2017/08/25/jim-brown-colin-kaepernick-i-dont-desecrate-my-flag-and-my-national-anthem/602349001/
"I want to be in his corner, and I do think, 'God bless him,' " Brown said. "I'm going to give you the real deal: I'm an American. I don't desecrate my flag and my national anthem. I'm not gonna do anything against the flag and national anthem. I'm going to work within those situations. But this is my country, and I'll work out the problems, but I'll do it in an intelligent manner."

Going just by the title of this thread I thought he broke his neck.
-
The press conference with Gen Kelly today was very moving. He could care less if a President who did not know his son called him .
He cared about the soldiers who served with his son called him and wrote him.
Great Chief of Staff
He also confirmed that Trump did say he knew what he was getting himself into, but meant it in a complimentary way. That Congresswoman (whoever the heck she is) is a sick person.

When Desean got it the thought of him getting that walk off punt return against the Giants as an Eagle came to mind.
