  1. Bolded part- I think that that's a slippery slope. Before you know it you're ignoring a players worth and only drafting based on what you need. From there you're half a step away from the later Al Davis years wherein you ignore a players worth and draft entirely based on a certain trait or desire. That's how you draft a career #4 WR with the 7th pick. Some players bust, that's true. But when you reach on players the bust is more likely, and the consequences of the bust are more extreme. Underlined part- this i agree with. I don't see (as of yet, and this being my opinion so it ain't worth crap) any WR worth a a top ten pick. Maybe a couple tackles, but I struggle spending a super high pick on a RT. Honestly, if we're stuck on picking a offensive player high, the TE Hockenson from Iowa might end up looking like the best option, even though taking a top 15 TE is also ridiculous.
  2. Is he dead now? He's gotta be dead now. All the way from MLK and Ghandi to this... What joy.
  3. Hang on. I'm getting my wires crossed... First, Trump needs to be indicted because he had an affair with a porn star that most men would kill to look at, let alone be with. But now Trump is impotent? I'm not saying you're an idiot, but If they started rounding up idiots and shooting them in the head I would buy you a helmet.
  4. I'm never more confused and enlightened simultaneously than when I am reading C.S. Lewis.
  5. Depends on what gender the "man" identifies as when the police get there, and also how many times such identification changes between the time of arrest, and when he/she/it gets in front of the judge. There's no more logical reasoning to use. It's all a cluster *****.
  6. The problem comes in when you take players higher than their intrinsic worth as a player dictates. John Doe might be the best RB in the draft, but he's really only seen as a 2nd round pick objectively. If the Raiders need a running back and pick John Doe at pick 15, they're paying a very high premium for position, instead of talent. This usually goes out the window in regards to QB and you get the Christian Ponders and Blaine Gabberts of the world becoming top 20 picks.
  7. An example would be drafting Montez Sweat at 9 instead of a Jonah Williams or Dk Metcalf. We have a need for OL, WR, and DE. Of those three, DE might be our least pressing need. But Sweat is the far superior player. He's worth more in general, without looking at the need factor. I think at that point, you take the DE and get the others later. Also important to realize that you can pick for need and for BPA interchangeably in the same draft.
  8. The problem that exists is that, if you look at the history of the abortion industry, the “medically” necessary distinction has been a token used at every step to loosen laws and bring about open abortion. The Democratic Party stands on a platform of abortion anytime, for any reason. Go ask their last presidential nominee. more to the point. It’s wrong at week 1, and it’s wrong at week 41.
  9. Wow.. I think I’ve been bullying a mentally ######## person. I get why you guys don’t respond to him.
  10. There is no excuse for why these kids alledgedly did. Obviously.
  11. Is your argument then that all abortions should be eliminated at all times except when a doctor says it’s medically necessary?
  12. Aw, don’t worry tibs. We’ll make sure your mothers basement gets on the truck to Europe. Wouldn’t want you to be homeless. p.s. Did you ever admit and apologize about that thing that made you look like a worthless piece of *****?
  13. I know we all gather here as part of a NY based sports message board, but I honestly don’t know how you guys can stand living in that state. If I hadn’t moved before I was an adult, I’d have left the first chance I got.
  14. I have always been against abortion, but now that I spend a good deal of time holding my 3 week old daughter, the reality of this is more compelling. The celebration of the taking of innocent life is the sign of a debauched society.
  15. I argued with a friend on facebook about this, convinced him that the media had lied, and then the next day he had swung back. the leftists in America are happily suckling at the teet of disinformation. Sheep to the slaughter.
  16. Does he mean "Trumpturd" cause that seems pretty obvious...
  17. https://www.dailywire.com/news/42563/now-nathan-phillips-wants-meet-covington-teens-he-ashe-schow?utm_source=facebook&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=benshapiro The predictable next step.
  18. Two things. 1- I have seen your posts many times on here, but I don't think we've interacted much, if any, so don't try to peg me or sterotype me. You don't know me, you don't know who I am or what I believe. 2- You started a thread based on a lie. Now you're playing the apples and oranges game. That makes you look like a worthless *****. Redeem yourself by acknowledging that you started a thread based on a lie.
  19. Thanks for the info. I definitely won't begin to think that I understand the full breadth of what happened, but those are all relatively easy to explain- the Rape joke was supposedly (as heard in the video) made by someone who doesn't go to that school. The fact that there is a mixed group of boys and girls indicates that there is another group present as Covington is an all boys school (unless I'm mistaken). The one with the guys heckling the girl, I have no clue about. Definitely would be hard from that 3 second clip to get any real understanding of that, but whoever did shout those things is inappropriate and a d-bag anyways. The shirt and chanting seemed to genuinely be their way of responding to the racist ***** that were yelling at them/harassing them. School chants, so it seems. Obviously the shirt should have stayed on. I definitely agree that kids can be horrible. I think at worst you have a rowdy group of kids. I also agree with your assertions that even if the boys behaved like a bunch of teenage boys, the media backlash is ridiculous.
  20. You seem like a well adjusted, intelligent person. I really appreciate your contribution on this board and I hope you continue to fill this space with your well thought out dialogue that is not in the least bit slanted or biased. You da bomb. Your argument here is essentially that you justify being a worthless ***** because there are other worthless ***** out there.... This seems like the reasoning that a worthless ***** would use.
