I have to bring this back because I think Sneaky Pete was nearly perfect from beginning to end. I realize it was canceled, but the final episode was the perfect ending and I wouldn't want them to ruin it with another season.

Here's my favorite excerpt and why I love Allen as a passer moving forward; Accuracy, Childress said, is easy to grade. When evaluating quarterbacks, Childress always followed the Norv Turner philosophy that the throwing motion should look natural. If you’re going to ride the wave with a quarterback, he’d better have a throwing motion you can live with. Childress thinks Allen has the proper stroke.

He will do it anyway and leave it up to (what he believes is) his Supreme Court to decide...

Jesus. You guys should really just get "Cult-of-Trump" tattooed on your foreheads already. The ONE idiot who has now nominated Trump twice already has his. Donald Trump is more likely to be in jail in 2021 than win the Nobel Peace Prize... And that's despite me knowing he's almost inevitably going to test Presidential Pardon powers by pardoning himself before he leaves office next January.

Wow. You're a complete lost cause. Get smarter. Wait did you just change the terms of our bet? So now I get to force an avatar change on you whenever I feel like it?

How is this stupid thread still a thread? @Deranged Rhino... here's an idea. Delete the thread. Evidently your goal is to sow even more division in a place already divided Is this the preface to you following Donald Trump's lead as he riles up the Country knowing he's about to lose an election just like you know you're about to lose our bet and perhaps abandon this username for another to escape the consequences?

I'm starting to think Donald Trump is going to find a way to weasel out of the debates. Those will not go well for him. He has been playing so much defense lately. So unlike him. Moderators are going to ask him about a lot of these things that just came out and with the Woodward tapes, he is going to look like the fool he is to all but the Cult of Trump if he tries lying about his own words. He's desperate. The debates will be quite amusing as he gets publicly stomped if he actually shows up.

At least you're persistent... or stubborn. Last week we find out he believes ALL war heroes--not just John McCain--are suckers and losers. This week we hear from his own voice that he lied about COVID intentionally... lies that were spread around PPP in the early days like wildfire by the likes of your pals if not you directly. And yet you continue to believe Donald Trump will win in November. You really are a fool. I found some real live footage of you.

I thought it would be corny, and it is a little. But it kinda knows it is and has some fun with it. And it's pretty freakin funny, too.

Watching Lovecraft Country on HBO Max. I really like it. I'm curious about their other new show Raised by Wolves. Sneaky Pete was a fantastic show and ended perfectly. Cobra Kai on Netflix is shockingly good for a guy and his wife who loved Karate Kid. On a side note, there's too much good TV out there for a guy like me who generally doesn't binge watch. I'm currently somewhere in the midst of watching The Expanse, Peaky Blinders, Ozark, Bosch, The Umbrella Academy, The Boys, Cobra Kai, and Lovecraft Country and am liking all of them but slowly getting through them. Today I watched 2 1/2 hours of TV and had to do other stuff. Fringe and Breaking Bad are the only 2 show my wife and I have ever truly binged.

Keep up? Is one of @Deranged Rhino's new rules that you have to read through multiple pages before posting? There really is a simple answer to your question and it's what I've been saying for MONTHS about why Donald Trump will lose: Donald Trump is the best fundraiser for Democrats that Democrats could ask for

Good post Shaw. It's nice to have football and "The Rockpile Review" back. Such a weird feeling as we start this year. We usually have preseason and a lot more TC to wet our palettes. Thursday when the season kicks off I think will be a welcome shock to everyone's system. As for Buffalo, it's strange to say that anything short of winning at least 1 playoff game this year will be disappointing.

Nice ad hominem. Another consistent problem over here. To clear things up because I think it's so ingrained in the psyche over here that what I said just flew over your head: You talk about conspiracy theories like flavors of ice cream. Q is "not my cup of tea," you say. You're "not interested." Why not just call it the crazy, debunked conspiracy theory it is and has proven to be? Instead, you talk about it as though you're shopping around for a car and that Q conspiracy theory is "not my cup of tea," but you'll find another one. And before you get all bent out of shape, I'm just trying to help you understand what you were reading there since you didn't actually understand what I wrote in the context of that particular post by you.

Funny. You're answering a question that was asked based on a completely false premise because of either neglect or an inability to actually read. Don't worry, this is a common problem here. As I said, keep the Q thread open. Don't lock it or close it. That it's open is not a problem.

@Buffalo_Gal... can you read?

Question 1: I don't mosy into it. But I have. Question 2: I haven't said anything about closing PPP down. The OP might be thinking of me when he types the OP, but it's only because he doesn't like how often I prove him wrong and that he's about to lose a bet he stupidly made. Keep the forum open and whatever threads exist. It's not that the thread exists, it's that many at PPP believe it warrants the credibility to seriously discuss it.

"Not interested?" "not my cup of tea?" Conspiracy theories like Q aren't flavors of ice cream you pick and choose between. Maybe this is part of the problem with PPP. It's like you guys believe it's a necessity to find a ridiculous conspiracy theory to talk about just to see who can find that perfect balance between crazy and believable.

That it's been given enough legitimacy to warrant 149 pages worth of actual "serious" discussion about it is the problem. I don't mosy into that thread myself, but I have seen who started it and who's been pedaling it as worthy of serious discussion. If PPP is indeed "under fire," maybe the OP needs to look in the mirror to find out who's to blame.

Wow. They suck. We better crush them.

You need to know someone who has an active college email address who isn't themselves an avid football fan because multiple people can't be using it at once, unlike Netflix or Amazon Prime or such... Can you use that after you're already enrolled?

You understand there would be an NBA without NBA players? NBA players are probably the most uniquely gifted athletes in the world, which is why there's only 450 of them. Get enough of those players in a small league to protest or walk out and what are the owners going to do? If they're invested long term in their product, they need to put the best product on the court, which means they need to put the best players on the court, which means they need to keep those players relatively content. The other sports leagues operate on the same principle, but player leverage is less because there are more of them and so you have a watering down of opinions because you have more. This is why unions exist, both in the real world and in sports. And if those unions have the leverage to allow their members to do things that would appear to you to be various forms of protest because too many of those members might otherwise leave their job--temporarily or otherwise--and the employer's bottom line will be too deeply affected, then the answer is yes, you can force your employer to "protest" on the job... I'm sure it would be contingent upon actually doing your job, though. This is why unions are such a necessity in the America we know and love. They give voice and leverage to the cogs that keep the machine running.

Dear God this is pathetic. I've now been venturing into PPP for a few years and nothing's changed over the last 3 years other than there actually being more of a balance between reasonable posters on BOTH sides of the political spectrum and the OP getting banned for a month for clearly not following his own advice. And #2 of the "ROE" is friggin hilarious. "Show your work" is followed by "stick around for an adult conversation." It's not exactly possible to have an adult conversation with anyone who automatically dismisses the work showed because of the message and the source. You're the one who's fostered this culture of derision over here @Deranged Rhino along with a few other posters (a couple of whom are currently on my ignore list; as @Buffalo_Gal mentioned "ignore is your friend") and to try to pin blame on "the Other" is so hilariously disingenuous of you, which is appropriate. I'd applaud this thread coming from almost anyone else. Coming from you, it's a joke. 2 months until your new avatar...

And you are scared as you cower in a corner in the safety of your fellow conspiracy theorists. You know Donald Trump is losing in November and you're going to be saddled with a beautiful Biden avatar for a year. You've clearly been slowly coming to that critical stage of grief--acceptance--over the last month or 2. Hopefully you're fully immersed in that stage by November... who knows, maybe you'll grow to love and appreciate your new avatar.
