RI Bills Fan

What I think is immaterial. I asked a simple question "Why does the Black Lives Matter group cause such a hissy fit on this board?" I was hoping to get some factual answers. Instead I got unproven and largely unprovable accusations against the group. "They're Racist." "They're Exclusionary!" "I like the All Lives Matter slogan better!" "They have a secret Racist Agenda!" "You'd know this if you weren't following an idiot twitter account in lockstep!" Those are some very compelling factual arguments. So what is their agenda?

It's not an answer to the question I asked but I'm game if you are. The key is the tone used in the presentation of the subject matter, the idea that all lives matter equally I doubt that they'd be shooting if I wasn't accusing them of being exactly what they're fighting against, people who only believe that certain lives (manly defined by skin color) matter. So I'll ask again, how do you know all of that? How many of their rallies have you attended? How many of their leaders have you personally interacted with? Or are you judging from afar? Perhaps following the smart group think on twitter? 1. So it's not a group, it's a slogan? How original... 2. How do you know this? 3. See #2 4. So I'll ask you the same questions I asked the Kool-Aid Guy, how do you know all of that? How many of their rallies have you attended? How many of their leaders have you personally interacted with? Or are you judging from afar? Perhaps following the smart group think on twitter?

I think I know why the Black Lives Matter group was formed. Why was the All Lives Matter group Formed? Who do they exclude? How are they racist? Nice rant, but how do you know all of this?

Best guess is a weapons test gone bad. The Russians cut the Torpedo Room (forward-most hull section) off of the ship using a diamond encrusted wire rope before allowing the rest of the sub to be refloated and hauled into port. A particularly slow and horrible way to die. The weapon system they were testing.

I just don't understand the hissy fit over Black Lives Matter. Would someone please explain it to me? Go ahead and use small words and short sentences if you think that will make it easier for me to understand.

In reference to the bolded part, where did you hear that little pearl of wisdom? Even Dan Clancy couldn't sell that one. In the thankfully rare times when an American Submarine sank Past Crush depth and imploded the crew was killed in seconds by the combination of drowning and sea pressure (44.4 PSI per each 100 ft of depth). The Submarine's atmosphere cannot ignite, explode, or whatever due to increased pressure. The crew of the Kursk experienced an entirely different type of death, slow suffocation as their atmosphere went bad. The Russian Government sacrificed those men to a horrible fate in order to keep secret the true reason that Submarine sank.

If it wasn't for the fact that Hogan was kept on the roster when everybody's favorite binky, Da'Rick Rodgers, was cut a large number of the Hogan Haters would be singing a different tune. That statement in no way implies that I believe Hogan is worth the $$$ the Cheatriots threw at him. But I do believe that a certain group of posters are still butt-hurt over the decision to keep Hogan and scrap Da'Rick Rodgers and that that group will forever downplay Hogan's contributions to the Bills Offense.

RIP Mrs. Regan, You were a Class Act and an Exemplary First Lady.

And another Cheatriot** fan is heard from... Bills 38 Cheatriots** 10

I really don't understand all of the whining and teeth gnashing about the defense. If you take a look at the four losses it's obvious that with the notable exception of the Cheatriots game the offensive deficiencies were the major problem in those losses. Against the Jags the offense put us in a huge hole that we couldn't quite climb out of despite a valiant effort. Against the G-Men and the Bengals the offense, for various reasons, just didn't get the job done. I know everyone was expecting the defense to be one of the best in the league but the season isn't over yet.

The Cleveland Browns from 1946 to 1960 went 143-37-6 for a winning % of 79.4 and won 7 Championships in 9 playoff appearances. Your OP simply says Football Franchise it doesn't specify NFL Football so by YOUR original premise the AAFC years count. I have no doubt you'll claim that you meant NFL but it's too late now. The Packers won 5 Championships in 7 years (including the first two Super Bowls) The Steelers won 4 Super Bowls in 6 years The Cowboys (and the Cheats) won 3 Super Bowls in 4 years The 49ers won 5 Super Bowls in 14 years never losing a Super Bowl during that time. The Cheats have won 4 Super Bowls (and lost 2 Super Bowls) in 15 years. The Cheats are in the discussion for best ever but it's nowhere near as definitive as you claim.

I know you're a young'un but you should really look at the records of the 50's Browns, the 60's Packers, the 70's Steelers, the 80's San Fran 49'ers, and the 90's Cowboys before claiming that the Cheats are the "OMG Best Ever." None of those teams needed to bend and twist the rules to dominate the NFL. They just went out and kicked azz. And before you start spouting the Brady nonsense, look up Otto Graham, Bart Starr, Terry Bradshaw, Montana/Young, and Aikman's accomplishments and remember those guys did it in an era when QB's didn't wear dresses and receivers could be defended against all over the field.

No, apparently that process has been completed.

Was this thread started for the express purpose of allowing the pats** fans who post here to ball-wash each other? Not so serious minds want to know.

They did ask, and the NFLPA refused saying that TB wanted to face his accusers not his friends. Which is the point KTD was making earlier.

Isn't the real question; Did the NFL have the authority to call the "Goon Squad" as witnesses? Or was it a case of that being entirely the NFLPA's decision?

As usual 3rdrate you've got everything upside down, inside out, and backwards. I read this forum for laughs and occasionally I interject a comment which completely derails an inane narrative. That's when the name calling starts. It's a normal and expected PPP tactic. The Obama/Democrats/Liberals BAD, Bad, bad, and oh by the way, BAD! narrative espoused by the majority of posters here as the only valid and/or allowed political opinion is both naive and narrow-minded and when someone interjects an idea that doesn't fit the preconceived group-think circle jerk train of thought, that poster is attacked, derided, and belittled in an effort to either drive him away from this forum or force him to accept the group think as valid. This forum is similar to an elementary school playground. The select group of "Cool Kids" attempt to control the narrative and quickly gang up on anyone who doesn't adhere to their naive philosophy. It makes this forum amazingly funny to read but boring to participate in. I'll drive by again later and shoot holes in another silly 3rd grade narrative.

Wow, I guess you got up on the wrong side of the trash heap today. What happened, did the mean wino down the alley steal your last piece of dry cardboard? Check my earlier posts, you'll notice - if you get someone to read them to you - that as usual I wasn't the one that started the name-calling. But I guess it's your turn to have a go at me, so...

Who lifted the trash can lid and woke you up?

Way to prove my point, Magoo. Yeah, like you do. Nice to see that your brain off while typing interlock is fully functional. And proud of it. Yes. And I meant exactly what I said. Common Chef it's only two words, you can figure it out if you try real hard. Do you have any idea what you're talking about? Okay, you got me there.

Why yes, yes it is, which is why, intentionally or not, by virtue of your inane arguments you are saying that Fox News is functionally equal to the Comedy Channel. It's either that or you're simply incapable of intelligent debate at any intelectual level above 2nd grade. Which come to think of it, makes your screen name into an even more laughable oxy-moron than anyone realized.

Both

Who's trying to stave off the (*^*&%^$^#label? Anyone with a functioning brain is considered to be a (*^*&%^$^#by the majority of PPP regulars. Are you really making that comparison? Really? Greg Who?

Yeah, I'm a Dipshit. I'm the (*^*&%^$^#that owns you. The majority of the arguments being thrown around seem to boil down to the idea that John Stewart is the left equivalent to all the talking heads (combined) who regularly appear on Fox News Opinion shows. That is only possible if the two networks (one a News network and the other a Comedy network) are functionally equal. So the real question is; if the Daily Show is a political opinion outlet for the left does that make the Fox News opinion shows into comedy programing for the right?

So the majority opinion here is that Fox News = Comedy Channel? I only ask because the majority of the arguments thrown at Greggy don't make sense if that isn't true... I'm just sayin... LOL!
