It’s funny you mentioned those comments right after the Super Bowl ended. I watched virtually none of the postgame coverage but I did see Reid say that, and thought to myself….geez that’s an odd thing to say at that moment.

Thanks Colorado Pretty amazing how much turnover there is year over year, and the vast majority comes in free agency. By the time they get to camp just about all of the roster spots are set in stone, with the infamous ‘camp battles’ coming down to just a couple of special team reserves who’ll rarely contribute much of anything.

GQP: A 30 PERCENT NATIONAL SALES TAX
SoCal Deek replied to BillStime's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
I think you just did. 😉 But…to set up a bunch of ridiculous government programs and then club people over the head for accepting the money that comes from them, has always seemed a bit odd to me. If you don’t want to give ‘red states’ the money…kill the programs. -
I have absolutely no idea who that is or how it relates to your ridiculous desire to scream from on top of a tall tower in hopes that everyone will ignore you. If you’re going to scream, just accept that people are going to tell you to shut up now and again. Unless you’re a twelve year old, I’d have thought you’d have learned that by now.

Everyone knows where he was. Trying to sell it as a war zone, like it demonstrates some sort of courage or body armor, is asinine. Even the President didn’t take it as such. He was wearing a blue business suit! Mind you, I give him props for going…but let’s not make it into something it clearly wasn’t.

I’m often dying to find out what people on here actually did/do for a living.

And you think we should cut them off? I’m not sure where you’re going with this. -
Everyone immediately jumps to Beane in these threads, but I have to wonder how much Josh’s opinion is sought out with regards to WRs. Josh isn’t a rookie anymore. Does management ask him what he thinks he needs or who he thinks he can work with?

And in the other thread you’re criticizing someone for space lasers? You have a palpable fear of ‘them’. Gene….it’s a SALES TAX. You pay one now! The problems with shifting to a national sales tax are certainly significant but the concept remains a very simple one. -

I’m not defending it. I’m explaining it. -
I’ve been waiting for this thread. I loved Robert Woods both in college and as a professional. He’s bounced around a lot but has always looked productive to me.

GQP: A 30 PERCENT NATIONAL SALES TAX

As I keep saying, I’m not in favor of this idea, but to think that everything else in our system will just the same is ridiculous. It obviously won’t. For starters, the entire tax code would evaporate, and with it, all the exemptions (loopholes) deductions, etc. So would all the pitting of one group against another. Think about it…..Have you ever heard ANYONE speak out against their ‘fair share’ when they buy a power tool at Home Depot? I never have. You just pay it, whether you’re rich or poor. -

What’s really funny is that according to BillStime, his family members left the school because of a book that was NOT in the library. Couldn’t they have just gotten that book for their children on their own? Now they have to buy them ALL the books, even the ones that ARE in the school library. Oh well.
