  1. Who gives a ****? If I give a doctor a Rolex watch to pull out my appendix, what's it to you?
  2. The majority doesn't always determine what is "right."
  3. First, congratulations on finding another topic to post on. I'm not familiar with the National Day of Prayer or what the school was doing. Part of the problem with public schooling is that it's government sanctioned and thus you get this whole church/state conundrum. If people were reasonable and level-headed, those who didn't believe in prayer could just be silent. But there is always (a) a jackass parent who complains that their child is being forced to pray, or (b) a jackass teacher who forces a kid to pray or ostracizes a kid who doesn't. Sadly, the peripheral d-bags force the issue and courts have to get involved to remove a relatively harmless "day" from the schools. If you choose public schools for your kid, this is the BS you buy into.
  4. I understand AZ's problem but the part of the law most people are bitching about really is a serious problem: FOR ANY LAWFUL CONTACT MADE BY A LAW ENFORCEMENT OFFICIAL OR AGENCY OF THIS STATE OR A COUNTY, CITY, TOWN OR OTHER POLITICAL SUBDIVISION OF THIS STATE WHERE REASONABLE SUSPICION EXISTS THAT THE PERSON IS AN ALIEN WHO IS UNLAWFULLY PRESENT IN THE UNITED STATES, A REASONABLE ATTEMPT SHALL BE MADE, WHEN PRACTICABLE, TO DETERMINE THE IMMIGRATION STATUS OF THE PERSON. THE PERSON'S IMMIGRATION STATUS SHALL BE VERIFIED WITH THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT PURSUANT TO 8 UNITED STATES CODE SECTION 1373©. So a cop sees a Latino guy driving down the street in a pickup truck (lawful contact) with a lawnmower in the back and suspects (based on the fact that he's a Latino landscaper perhaps) that he's an immigrant. So now he must (because the law says SHALL) make a reasonable attempt to ascertain his immigration status? LEGAL immigrants in AZ are going to have their right to be free form unreasonable search and seizure violated right and left under this bill. I don't see this passing any Constitutional challenge and nor should it.

  6. That was a team who had quit on the season, owner, and everything. I wouldn't judge a single player based on that game.
  7. It's good to know you're more in touch than the 32 teams that each invest 10s of millions into scouting...but have passed on Pike for 6 rounds.
  8. I watch a lot of South Dakota State football and you guys don't know WTF you're talking about. This guy is a stud.
  9. I don't live in DC and agree. For nothing, I'd take him. For a 4th, no way.
  10. He's for DeHaven. If he amounts to more, that's great.
  11. With their track record, I can see how you'd think the Raiders are doing a great job.
  12. They made the playoffs with Matt Cassell. Thanks for playing.
  13. Bruce Campbell, roid guy and workout warrior. Yeah, BFD.
  14. They didn't trade him because he's got no value. He was a backup RB to Jackson. And he has off-field issues.
  15. You have no idea if this is true. None. Call back in 3 years.
  16. Well, let's see. If Nix wants to trade him, should he broadcast it all over the media so on the off chance that he can't trade him, Lynch then knows he's not wanted by every team in the NFL including his own? Come on people.
  17. Santonio Holmes made plays. Lynch is a backup RB with serious character and attitude issues. No one is that interested. I'd be thrilled with a 4th. I'm guessing no one is giving up more than a 5th and most of the offers will be for 6th round picks.
  18. I don't fear that. I value it.
  19. Who wants to trade a 3rd rounder for a backup who couldn't beat out Fred Jackson. Lynch isn't worth more than a 6th.
  20. Gronkowski's family became Pats fans in an instant. Wish someone would rescue me like that.
  21. With Troupe and Williams alternating at NT, what position does Stroud play?
