  1. This is a good watch, IMO. Sorry if someone's already posted this or linked it.
  2. Not sure I agree with this take. OK, I know I don't agree with this take. Execution is a team game and the execution around any player certainly allows that player to execute in a better way. Additionally, what do they say, steel sharpens steel. Having good coaches and good players in the program supports much better and deeper growth of all of them.
  3. I think you're looking for the Miami board The supporting cast around Herbert is dang good. Comparing to other young QBs, Mahomes landed in a good spot too. The rest not so much.
  4. I don't have an opinion on this. And, if I did I'm going to keep it to myself.
  5. Don't dress Bass. The most disappointing stat in the game yesterday was the number of times we got in the red zone and settled for a field goal.
  6. We're on our Crusade
  7. Respect your personal experience, for sure. My impression comes from my son who lives in Seattle. I've attended a couple of games with him and I agree that the fans are hospitable.
  8. I'd put most Seattle fans firmly in the bandwagon category Got my boots on
  9. I'm actually rooting for NE in this game. Please don't take my Bill's card from me
  10. The Steelers can't catch a break. They are a different team today than they were in week one.
  11. Probably not my favorite to visit. I'd put it behind Seattle, Portland, San Fran and Napa Valley. But if I were to move to the west coast, it would be SD or Santa Rosa.
  12. You turned all my focus from enjoying Josh to being so very disappointed with Ford. I can't unsee Ford now.
  13. Haa! Hindsight is 20/20. Of course everyone wanted Herbert. Of course Tua wasn't ready last year.
  14. Schools shouldn't be in the social engineering business.
  15. My counterpoint is it replaces parents only if the parents disengage. Those that will disengage are probably already disengaged. Those that don't, the kiddo further succeeds.
  16. I think I'm hearing that your solution to ending indoctrination is to end education? I'm hopeful we can find a solution that doesn't require us flush education.
  17. All studies and research need to be considered and evaluated. As I shared with you, there are many that support early education. I think your point about replacing parents is a ruse. In almost all cases, active parents produce better results. Most of the early education programs I'm familiar with strongly encourage (if not require) active parents. In fact, as early education remains most voluntary at this time, it's the active parents that are seeking out these programs. We'll just need to agree to disagree with each other on this.
  18. Kids with active parents are at a significant advantage, with or without public education, with or without early education. Understanding the difference between daycare and early education is an important difference. Do you have a link to support your claim regarding there being no difference between those that attended early education and those that didn't? I've read quite a bit that supports just the opposite. edit - let me add that I'm a Republican. My opinion comes from years of serving on the board of an early education organization. I'm not for indoctrination but rather doing what's best for our kiddos.
  19. The pass kinda sucked, quite a bit behind Ertz.
  20. The science is probably too deep for a discussion on this board, but it has clearly been shown that a child's cognitive learning ability begins around 2 yrs of age. I'm not sure what you're background has to do with anything. I'm not saying success isn't possible without it.
  21. Early education is proven to be extremely important. Access to the children is a huge challenge, however. I live in a small community and access to our high risk kiddos is our biggest challenge. It begins with assuming they have transportation.
  22. Apparently at 2 games
  23. JA has to improve from week to week. If he doesn't get 6 TDs...
  24. Give it up. The man's got an agenda
