SectionC3

That’s a lot of conspiracy theory in one paragraph. Impressive . I guess.

Sparky, eh? Channeling you inner jerky boys tonight. Better than blowing your racist dog whistle, I suppose.

And yet you can't answer the question. Or won't. Because you know the answer. The lives of Americans are not better now than they were four years ago. It's not about saying what you want. It's about basic reading comprehension. As in, don't answer about your personal circumstances, but answer for the country as a whole. In this instance, it's you. The best way for you not to be a racist is to not say stupid, racist things.

Teeny tiny difference between Allen and Fromm. Just a bit.

Hoax. There is no platform. Other than to "enthusiastically support President Trump." Republicans used to stand for country. Now they stand for nothing. Besides fealty. How pathetic.

Hmmm. Care to share the platform with me? Or is it true that it doesn’t exist?

If you’re “regime” point had water you’d call it something with “Beijing” in the name. But you didn’t.

Yup. I did.

Hoax. It doesn’t exist. The party literally stands for nothing, except fealty to Donald Trump. That’s pathetic. Discuss.

Hmmmm. Interesting, coming from you. It didn’t. And instead of using the proper name, you choose to demonize a certain group and culture.

Even when infected with politics, as it has become, that center still won’t use the racist canard that you uttered.

Hoax as to the first sentence. Looks the CDC disagrees with you and calls is “coronavirus” or “COVID-19.” https://www.coronavirus.gov If you’re talking about those two guys who were caught on video on Hertel Ave. over the weekend, I tend to think it was an isolated incident. Probably not worth 180,000 dead and trashed economy for middle and lower income workers. But each is entitled to his or her own opinion.

Hoax on the latter part. I’m a vegetarian. And I doubt you’re a fast food worker. Dopey opinions on your end, to be sure, but you are not a dope.

Lots of interesting takes here. Most either misread the question or ignored the “we” therein. The question isn’t whether you (as an individual) are better off now than you were four years ago. It’s whether we, as a nation and a people, are so better off. My answer has been registered: it is patently obvious that we are not better off.

Not sure what you’re getting at. Maybe those dudes you pay $450/hour to do your legal work can clarify.

Not used magic to try to stop a pandemic. Or repurpose household cleaners as medicinal applications for the same purpose. Isn’t it ironic that an “evangelical” president relied on magic in this instance?

Hate Week ended last Thursday, meaning that your racism is untimely. That aside, typically a question isn’t properly answered with a question. Please keep your racism to yourself and answer the question on the floor, namely, whether we are better off now than we were four years ago. Thank you in advance for your cooperation.

It’s pretty tough to take your view that “leftists” are “stupid” seriously when you pluralize Americans improperly. FYI. *** In any event, lots of crickets here, but plenty of time to post conspiratorial trash in other places. Looks like the verdict is in: the lives of everyday Americans are not better than they were four years ago.

Sorry to hear that. Have a nice day.

ST if Jones isn’t ready.

1. infection rate and death count have increased concomitantly with protests. But where is the data linking protests to that increase? Could it be that refusal to social distance and refusal to wear masks in “none-protest” contexts contributed to the uptick? 2. Along those lines, you assume that nobody (or at least that a critical mass) of protesters did not wear masks. I don’t know that we have data to that effect, either. Assuming (safely, I think) that political fault lines apply here, my guess is that the vast majority of protesters were masked. Sturgis . . . I doubt. Tulsa we know the opposite to be true. 3. Your point about hypocrisy regarding lack of outcry is fair. But you’re also hypocritical in your defense of Sturgis. It’s essentially an “our wrong is actually right because someone else was wrong, too” argument. And, you seem to contend that the protests spawned a significant increase in infection rate and relevant deaths. By that logic, Surgis should be condemned. And by the same logic, Tulsa (mention of which you conspicuously avoided) was a travesty of, among other things, leadership. I don’t disagree with this, but by the same logic you have to stand for the shutdown of schools, bars, restaurants, and gyms until this is over. And it is reasonable for him to complain that his business model has been significantly disrupted by the federal action and inaction with respect to the pandemic.

Super interesting. I thought about moving on from Brown now that Diggs is here and Davis apparently had a stellar camp. But I don’t think they’re going to do anything along those lines this year. Now, the idea of putting your best 11 on the field and having 4 of those 11 be WRs? That might be something to talk about.

This one is interesting. Hard to judge based on absence of televised practice. But interesting nonetheless. You might be right. Why keep a 5th round QB who looks like he probably tops out as career backup based on first NFL camp when he’s, shall we say, perhaps a bit of a divisive figure in the locker room?

Kroft is guaranteed this year, right? And is Sweeney a PUP candidate? Might be a nice way to stash him for the year and to use him as a Kroft replacement next year. I think we’re going to see one of Duke/Foster traded. And it wouldn’t shock me if they keep Foster and go light at RB if Jones’s injury is going to linger into the season. So I guess Foster not being cut is my shock.

It was 2-1 the first time through, right? Not a good look for the “2” in that trio if that was the case. Oops.
