Yup, Benfords concussion history, Tre is made of glass, Max missed games at Kentucky and has the legs of a 16 year old girl. If we have the space I doubt we will be able to add any better talent at this point on a one year deal. The depth would be nice.

I would say this years squad has a pretty long list of potential breakout players. Samuel, Moore, Coleman, Kincaid, Bishop, Groot, AJ, Oliver, Bernard, Benford, Mad Max, Forrest, Hancock, Strong, Sanders, Walker, Jackson. Some rookies and vets on this list, but all could potentially take another step or perhaps even the first step being a big one. Some might even throw Rapp on the list. Sure, none of these could work out as well, but we have a lot of options this year and that’s part of what I’m excited to see.

Not everybody fits in these categories. But they explain a large part of the motivations and anger behind each party. -

The political right in the U.S. often aligns with Christian conservative values promoting policies on issues like abortion, LGBTQ+ rights, and education that reflect those beliefs. This can feel exclusionary to people of different faiths or none at all, especially when those religious values influence laws. The political left, on the other hand, tends to champion secularism and individual rights, which often conflicts with traditional religious doctrines. For devout believers, progressive policies on issues like gender, sexuality, or end-of-life rights can seem like a violation of their moral framework. Both groups feel values of the other party are being "forced" on them. Both sides often use government power to enforce their vision of morality. Both groups behave the exact same way. They will never like each other. Religion has been causing wars and tension for thousands of years. Go figure it still does so in the US within our political system. -

I have become a bit bitter towards the dismissal of Occam's Razor in our society. Nearly everything that occurs is a conspiracy. It's like our entire existence has become one big gas light. People have lied to us and hidden things from us. But that also doesn't make everything more complicated than it needs to be. I asked if you have ever been to LA because I wanted to know your level of familiarity with this part of the country. Southern California has millions of illegals. It is normal for me to be the only white male in large populations here. Just like it is normal for me to see only white people in the Midwest when I go back to where I am from. It is not going to be easy carrying out widescale deportations in this region. These people's roots are much deeper here. They have more family members, more friends, and more resources to oppose this activity as a result. They don't need assistance. You can choose to believe what you outlined. To me just feels off base. -

You're correct here, since you don't believe it was spontaneous who do you think is funding or coordinating this? It doesn't seem to help any liberal cause to have this type of situation occur. -

So conclusion is either the people rioting can talk with other people they know who also want to participate OR that it's strategically planned and well financed. -

Based on what? They started off in a crappy suburb of LA. They were pocketed small groups all over LA county. Have you ever been to LA? You realize how spread out that city is? -

haha...I'm against spam. I don't consider selective posts to be spam. I have been mostly democratic in my life time, but the democratic party doesn't really stand for my views. I know I always hated the tea party. Which seems about as related to MAGA as any. But above all things, I know Donald Trump is the least presidential and least qualified president in American history. If he was your boss, every day of your life would be the worst day of your life and that's only up until the point you went out of business. I hope something good can come from this long term. Maybe a 3rd political party, but that seems far fetched. -
I think it's going 7, they split in Indiana.

Immigration is a big issue here, not just because of the liberal politics, because the boarder to Mexico, climate, and legal diversity in the region. The Midwest where I spent most life might as well be a different world compared to Southern California. The people out here are certainly used to immigrants. I’m sure some want the boarder closed and some don’t really care. Hell, in the San Diego area you meet a ton of conservatives. But still, you see these people. The boarder is an hour from here. A lot of illegals have legal family members and friends, etc. This is a highly emotional subject. Legal or not we are talking about separating family’s. To think deportations in this region were not going to be met with some degree of resistance is unlikely. Now had this been a conservative state under different terms, do people think Trump would have basically ignored the governors request? It seems a bit unprecedented to do so or not work with local and state authorities when this occurs. Was this truly a situation that could no longer be handled at the local level? I doubt it, a few photos and stories of violence doesn’t make that the case either. It was a chance to exert influence in a liberal stronghold. Hope to embarrass local and state authorities. Meanwhile people are the chess pieces here. Easy to forget when photos of a couple of the ***** bags in the mix lead the headlines. -
Schedule makers built this in. That's why they do. Fields was known and Rodgers was all but known well before that process ended.

So this is your X or Facebook? Those sites aren't good enough for you? You have to select what things you enjoy and post them here 20-30 times a day even though nobody engages with it? I have this visual of a person with a megaphone yelling headlines over and over everyday, every 20 minutes, while the entire world just keep passing by never having heard any of it. Yet this person just keeps going. You don't find this behavior unusual?

I guess I am if I'm expected to understand why somebody would repost news from X 20-30 times a day with most of it never getting so much as a thanks or discussion. It doesn't make sense. That is why I'm asking what motivates you to do it? But you won't answer. Help me to understand why this is so important to you.

What is the purpose of doing it? I know that’s hard for you to answer directly.

What am I supposed to be seeing? What does this have to do with 3-4 users spamming every thread with some random persons random thoughts? What is the purpose of doing it? Most of the spam never gets responded to. It’s just post after post of it. I’m not sure I can identify with the motivation here. It would be weird to me to post dozens of times a day with 90% of it never getting a response and do it day after day after day.
-
Why do you think that is? I post how cool I am. Then I post my moms X account that says I'm cool. I do that 4-5 time a day in every thread. Why would anybody come here for decent conversations or to discuss actual events? You keep minimizing this place saying nobody comes here and it's a cesspool. Yet don't see the connection with your behavior and why this place only has 12 posters and is a cesspool.

They have no basic guardrail to be truthful or even accurate and have no standard that they're being held to. Compared to traditional media that your holding to standard of absolute truth. So when traditional media lies or gets it wrong you say, SEE, Bill___ on X is more credible. Meanwhile nobody has ever looked at a single thing that user said and if it has any accuracy. Most of these posts are the equivalent of Facebook posts. They're random people's opinions. It's not news but people here post them to try to give credibility to a view.

The Jets are complete disaster and Hackett is probably the worst offensive coach in the NFL. They did not have the structure to deal with Rodgers BS. He ran all over them and it accelerated that disaster. In addition he was coming off a major surgery not having played for a long time. He has enough in the tank to produce a strong year and the Steelers have the structure to keep him in check. That defense is always nasty. Hell, they had us within 7 in the 4th quarter at home in a playoff game. I understand he's a bit of joke at this point. But the AFC just got a little stronger. Maybe that is good as it relates to more competition for our worse enemies.

Forget arguing on social media like a teenage girl. Imagine having a picture of yourself power posing on your cell phone.
