Drug store chains are closing because of theft, you cannot walk in many areas of cities at night or day without worrying about your life from some wackev out druggie. More pllucdmzn hzfd been killed prf year than in decade totals up to 1990. NYC subways have more cops, less ridership because of danger. Whole stretches of San Fran, LA, Chicago have boarded up stores and restaurants do to safety and robberies. Mass shootings are regular. Protests about foreign wars we are not involved in are far more violent than anything from the 60s and Vietnam. Children cannot play in parks because of druggies, drugs and needles. Shootings are so common papers don’t report them. Gangs from Mexico, Central America, Columbia are ruling areas of cities. So unless you are living in a village in Idaho it is hard to imagine you dont see it, read it, hear it. Stats produced by self serving bureaucrats are not to be believed. Thanks, @Niagara Bill. Based on your bio, I see you live in Niagara Falls, on the Canadian side? Is that correct? You say stats produced by self-serving bureaucrats are not to be believed? But, I'm wondering where are you getting your information about San Fran, LA, Chicago, and other cities that you do not reside in? Are the news sources where you are seeing this "crime wave" not susceptible to being self-serving or misleading to create a desired result among voters? I just think it raises a question: why are so many people experts on crime and gang behavior in places that they do not live? Because, man, In the blue cities that I've lived in, the portrayal just isn't lining up with the lived experience. Now, I will concede on mass shootings. But, I do know that we have a really strong thoughts and prayers plan in place, so I think those really won't be a problem going forward.

Obviously you never tried a Utica Club. I've had my share and kept it all down.

What happens to the price of food if you reduce the supply of food by 25-40% but keep the supply of money the same? Simple: you just make the quality of food worse and cheaper to produce and slap a nice-sounding marketing term on it. Works every time. Can't wait for McDonald's to start advertising that they no longer use seed oils. It's going to be big mac season so soon.

Find a map of say NYS. Find the counties that went blue. Hang out after hours, live there. Cool. Yeah. So, I've lived in New York County and Queens County, and spent many, many late nights in Monroe County, Bronx County, and Kings County. I didn't find them to be even remotely unsafe. Also grew up in Utica, NY, an area which I'm sure is more blue than the rest of Oneida County. Never felt unsafe there either.

Where is all this crime that everyone keeps talking about? I've lived in what are considered some of "the most dangerous liberal cities," and never have I — or anyone I've known — felt that crime was concerning. And data indicates that crime — especially violent crime — is down remarkably since the 1990s, but Americans believe crime is a major issue? https://www.pewresearch.org/short-reads/2024/04/24/what-the-data-says-about-crime-in-the-us/. But maybe, large numbers of Americans don't believe this data? Or are seeing other data? Can somebody help me see another perspective on this? What am I missing here?

MPL replied to Process's topic in The Stadium Wall
Maybe we just signed them so we can give their wrists to Cooper, Coleman, and Carter? -

Where's Justin Zimmer at these days? -
too bad he can't play dline With his weak wrists, he'd fit right in on our DLine.

Dolphins the new Jets? If you combine dolphins and jets, you get Dets, or Debts.

Definitely banged his hand on a helmet at the end of 2nd quarter. Dirted a few balls after that. Thought he threw it well most of the 2nd half.

What's next: the wishbone offense?

He's cooked. No speed left. He's been slowing down for a couple years and instincts and experience can only take you so far. Yup. It's been noticeable, so it has been very entertaining to watch Dolphins fans realize it in real time.
-
FYI, Poyer dropped an easy INT last week. I've been enjoying the occasional drop-in on Fin Heaven this year. It's an absolute delight, if you haven't been over there recently. But, boy oh boy, Dolphins fans are perpetually angry at Jordan Poyer. I don't think Poyer is an upgrade over Rapp at this stage of his career, and maybe only marginally better than Hamlin.

33% is a pretty good day for Anthony Richardson.

I beg to differ Nah, man. All the magic comes from the Elbow.

Do single cell organisms have wrists? No. And therefore, we should be looking for a single cell organism that can play DT.

Wrists are so poorly designed. Just a total evolutionary failure.

Keon Coleman 5th In Rookie Receiving Yards
MPL replied to iwishitwerecolder's topic in The Stadium Wall
Keon would probably be 1st in YAC if his slow-40-time-having-ass didn't get run down from behind on that slant route. (hi. before you hit the eyeroll reaction, this is a joke. i like the kid.) -
Why are we still concerned about media personalities when we have all the personalities we need in this message board?

One game at a time, boys. One game at a time.

Saw Josh Allen hit some sniffing salts at some point, so probably that.

Jerry Jones gets snippy during radio interview.
MPL replied to PromoTheRobot's topic in The Stadium Wall
A friend of mine once said, "Jerry Jones looks like if racism were a person." I still think that's the most accurate thing that's ever been said about Jerry Jones.- 46 replies
