  1. The role of govt since our inception. Actions and reactions, and reactions to those reactions. You just don't like what ELECTED representatives decide. Sorry, that's how it's worked for like, ever.
  2. Public schools are the government. Parent's elect their representatives, both legislative and school board. Good faith discussions are a part of the democratic process and people are electing their representatives based on those discussions (campaigns). It sounds to me the process is occurring just as you describe, and you just don't like the result. School employees have never had the final say. public input has always existed. There have always been boundaries. Over the past decade, our govt employees at schools have pushed the envelope. Citizens have reacted to that. And here you are reacting to that reaction. Democracy is working.
  3. The will of the people should decide. You anti democracy? How should it work?
  4. Certain books have always, always not been available in grade school libraries. This isn't something new. 10 yrs ago we relied on common sense to make that determination. It's a shame that we need laws today.
  5. White going to the Dolphins to back up Tua. Sure appears to me that the Jets think they gave Rodgers.
  6. One democrat's opinion. Did you see her debate recently on DCs vs the USAs rights, regarding DC? She didn't have a clue what she was talking about. Was she truly ignorant or acting?
  7. AOC's an actress, and I'll give you she's a good actress. Her testimony in congress regularly shows that she little to no understanding of the subject being discussed and/or the constitution and legislative process.
  8. It's not this simple, however. I can speak to Wyoming very well. We've got two major federal highways through our state. We've got 1 of 3 nuclear air force bases. We've got one of the largest national parks and we've got one of the highest federal land ownerships in the nation. We've got very significant federal expenditure in our state for these and many other reasons. Then consider our denominator, having the smallest population of all states in the union. Our deficit is huge. Our per capita federal spending is huge.
  9. Not sure I see any controversy. Sad. Unfortunate. Sure
  10. He won't ever play in the NFL again if he brings such a lawsuit.
  11. I haven't seen this mentioned in this thread yet. Dobler is a fellow UW alumni along with Josh. He played at Wyo during the Black 14 incident.
  12. Week in and week out, I see WRs from other teams high point passes and win 50/50 balls. We don't have any of those WRs in our room. Diggs is one of the best route runners in the game, and effectively creates space. Davis just isn't good at creating space on his initial route. Nor is he good at high pointing a pass and coming down with those 50/50 balls. He's OK, but he's not where other #2s are. And that said, someone posted how the really good teams no longer have a #1 and #2, but rather have two #1s. Our Bills WR room is really weak in comparison to other top teams WR rooms.
  13. As has been mentioned numerous times in this thread, doesn't this 41% include throw aways by Josh. I guess you can call that an "absolute miss" if you'd like. I think most see the significant difference, however, between an intentional throw away and an "absolute miss".
  14. I don't think bad throws effect the catch percentage, right?
  15. If we had Von Miller you wouldn't. Did I do this right?
  16. I see the article about the 5 coaches picks - 3 picked the Bills, 2 picked the Bengals?
  17. Ha, based on his win / loss percentage? As a great philosopher once said, "okay"
  18. Or perhaps 10-3; or perhaps the Bills get a TO. Then the Bills get their 2nd possession of the game and again march down the field and score a TD, making it 10-10? Sample size is significantly much too small to do anything with. But keep trying...
  19. I don't know what I don't know about McKenzie. I think Beas, Shakir and McKenzie assuming he's close to 100%. If not, then Brown.
  20. While the mistakes you reference are accurate, only looking at the TOs is akin to only looking at the missed 3 pt shots in a basketball game. The Bills have a more aggressive game plan, a higher risk - a higher reward, philosophy. If one only looks at the higher risks (more TOs) and not the higher rewards (more TDs) they're missing half the equation. We're winning games; as many games as any team in the AFC. Perhaps the more aggressive play by Josh is working???
  21. If you come to dislike Josh, it's your decision. Not anyone elses.
