  1. Duke is our underdog, but who is our sweet Polly purebred? That’s what I want to know... When was the last time we debated about so many quality players that might get moved? Its been a while. BB will turn them into future trade / draft capital.
  2. I think you’re confused, the league by siding with the national sentiment on this issue has already told the racist fans to go pound sand. Demographics show that the real money is with the near seventy percent of Americans that they have sided with. Although late in coming the league is now on the right side of history, and has done the right thing.
  3. The leagues apologizes are frankly a day late and a dollar short as it were. The owners ganged up on him ended his career, and kicked him while he was down. It was an act of blatant racism. If he plays again of his and some teams choice it will be bitter sweet at best, joining the league office may be more likely than playing, I certainly don’t know what he wants as a human being. I think he likely has mixed feelings about a return.
  4. It would take only one guy to slip through the cracks so to speak. Consider with all the players, coaches and complimentary staff at a facility, plus everyone going home to their families daily, and all the potential contact all those people have with other people during the normal course of everyones daily life, there is a good chance that with the 30% odds of a false negative that a team could have several players get infected during a three day window between tests. It would create quite the problem for a team. You’re right, Its not so cut and dry, as is said.
  5. This ^^^ I can’t remember just know, but I think that someone or another suggested that college seniors would get another year of eligibility. The real truth is that a lot of college football players better stay and get their degree because a bunch of them aren’t gonna be pro football players because of this. The league however will survive even if it takes a couple of years to have the dust fully settle as it were.
  6. Curious perception for sure, like what was said earlier up post, from week 5 thru 17 Josh had 21 TDs to three interceptions, is that a C? does Josh need to tighten up his game? Yes, everyone including Josh knows this. I agree, the receivers aren’t getting an A if Josh is getting a C.
  7. It would be a record for combined SB loses for participants, it has all the hallmarks for a vicious brawl of a game, make it so...
  8. Just saw it come up, good to see! Problems and business decisions Boys, that’s what defenses will be faced with. Go Bills!!!
  9. What about blue cheese?? Certainly use of ranch will necessitate a one game suspension unpaid of course...
  10. I prefer the, he could fold a nickel with his butt cheeks saying...good for all tight azsez... ?
  11. Very likely, unless these young millionaires self quarantine, use masks when out in public etc, etc their is little chance the season even starts let alone finishes. A serious outbreak in only one team will very likely end the season. Its sucks for sure, and the damn virus is already spiking again in at least a dozen states, and that’s not counting the rest of the world. This sh-t ain’t over by a long shot. Positive thoughts friends, with huge amount of responsible behavior and a giant portion of good luck we will see some football. ? Go Bills!!!
  12. Because the jets suck, and she/he starting to switch alliances towards the Bills, can’t really blame she/he for showing good sense... ?
  13. So are you saying that makes it okay to continue the blatant injustice and racism? Or is it all just fake news in your eyes, What truly is your point? Asking for a friend...
  14. It is a serious conundrum to be sure, I would be of the opinion that if an employee is doing harm to their co- workers well being or their employer who is in turn doing no harm to others in their business dealings then that hypothetical person is the problem, and should be let go, but on the other hand if said person does their protesting away from work, and even if their employer dislikes it, that person should not be punished for exercising their rights, again if they do their job well. Having been the manager of a small business for many years I understand your point. You are correct that it is the large corporations that are the ones most likely to abuse others through their business dealings, this is where greed and power abuses show there ugly heads most frequently. That is where regulation of capitalism is most appropriate and needed. I have no problem with folk creating and having wealth, I do however have a problem with those individuals or entities that allow greed and power lust to purposefully restrict others from that opportunity. Being a good neighbor as an individual or business is a necessity if one holds having a great society as a priority, which I do. I truly understand that perfect is not gonna happen, but doing ones best to not be part of the problem is alway desirable.
  15. I Appreciate your sentiments, and I thank you, it was a privilege to serve my country. The owners of our country, yes us citizens, in effect have no constitutional rights if government or business entities can thwart them when ever they feel inclined. The playing field is not level. Capitalism brings many rewards, and is mostly a good thing, but greed and power (capitalism’s twin evils) need to be properly regulated for the common good of everyone. Presently the greed and power aspects are out of hand, and those two things are the root cause of our current social unrest.
  16. Chuckle all you want, but millions of Americans play and watch soccer. Its a truly internationally played game, unlike our Americanized rugby, not that our version of rugby isn’t pretty damn cool ?.
  17. It would appear JJ Watt and others have a mature understanding of what constitutional rights mean, and that protesting injustice and blatant racism during the national anthem is what Americans call standing up for the true ideals of America. Those that would try to twist doing so into an affront to our brave and honored service members current and former are perpetuating a known falsehood and acting in an UN AMERICAN way, and should give considered thought as to why they would purposefully continue to push this falsehood, that can only further divided our country. As a former United States Marine I find this abhorrent self serving behavior reprehensible. Nations unfriendly to our Democratic Republic use this thinking to drive a wedge into the very social fabric of our Great and honorable Nation, it must stop. Semper FI America!!!
  18. Feel? How about the truth of the matter? American citizens exercising their constitutional rights is not and never has been an insult to we who served. Again, the flag does not and never has represented the military, the flag represents the constitution and the social values of our country, that in turn the military is sworn to and oath bound to protect, end of story. Your or my feelings do not come into play on this. That you “feel” otherwise is unfortunate and bears introspection on your behalf. Nothin but luv, and thank you for your service to our great country. Semper FI.
  19. I’m one of those people who served, (USMC) and it is not a slap in the face, the flag does not represent the military, it represents the constitution and the social values of our country, that in turn the military is sworn to protect. Any one who thinks otherwise is willfully ignorant. This I had been a straw man argument/red herring from the very get go. Go Bills!!!
  20. Good on him, I truly hope the entire league kneels every game, Semper FI America, exercise your constitutional rights every damn day! Go Bills!!!
