SectionC3

So limited government is the answer. That's fair. And you seem to believe that government regulation is what has suppressed those who have come upon hard times in suburbia and rural America. Time will tell.

My question first. What’s he going to do for them? The election’s over. He won. I’m well off, and frankly there’s a part of me that doesn’t really care. I’m concerned about this degradation of decency in our society that he reflects. I’m concerned about the chilling effect on truth and democracy. But from a personal perspective, you wanted this guy, and you got him. So the question is what specifically do you expect him to do for you?

Hoax. For the paycheck to paycheck crowd, it’s a serious question. What specifically will Trump do for you? It’s a fair question. It seems they expect someone else to solve their problems, which perhaps could be avoided through a bit of discipline.

So what specifically is trump going to do for these people? It’s a serious question. His campaign was about personal grievance, ragging on trannies, and insults. So, seriously, what’s going to change for all of the aggrieved who voted for him? It’s a fair question.

That's my attitude, too. I'll be fine because I'm disciplined. Let's see if this gets furniture in the house for the stretched out suburbanites who are angry at others for their own lack of fiscal discipline. And if the hill folk get out of the double wides. And if the young men who (perhaps rightfully) are tired of hearing about the "patriarchy" of which they are not a part see an uptick in their earnings and careers. My guess is that nothing for any of those groups changes unless they change it for themselves, which they likely won't do because the lack of discipline and work ethic is what put them where they are in the first place.

All of these things can be true. Taking the 30,000 foot view here, I tend to agree with the idea that anyone who loses to this clown is not a good candidate. But there's also the point to be made that the electorate is angry, frustrated, and a maybe a little dumb. They took that out on Democrats. Right or wrong, it's what happened. So now it's time for Republicans to put up or shut up. There's an irony in the first sentence of that post. One could apply that to immigration and health care reform. Yet here we are.

Agreed. He won. Congratulations to him. In the meantime, I'd like to know how, short of instituting communist-like price controls or maintaining the relevant policies of the current administration, he plans to reduce inflation. This is probably going to benefit my stock portfolio. But I have to say I find it amusing that a large swath of his voters focused on the perceived inflation/wage dichotomy (something not borne out by data over the past 12 months), and this morning guys like Mark Mobius are thrilled with the setup for securities. The only way everyone gets their "cake" here is through trickle down. Good luck with that.

How many of them were roster players?

Aside from the fact that he was there at 1a the night before the division championship game.

I can’t believe anyone would buy it other than to take money from morons. I played the game stop game for a bid because of the leverage issue, but DJT doesn’t have that going for it.

It wouldn’t blow me away if Efe Obada found his way back here to fill in for a bit. I believe they played him a lot in one of the big packages (maybe against NE?) when he was here. Shaq would be a good Smoot replacement, too, but for the whole shooting at the hookah bar thing.

Adios.

What’s the P/E on what should be this pink sheet junk? It looks like it’s moving based on Florida results. Which suggests that the people in this thing are MAGA sycophants and those looking to get in and out a little ahead of those sycophants. I can’t think of any rational reason to invest in this company. (And I’d say the same if Barack Obama or a D was essentially a traded commodity like this one.)

It depends on when the mail-in ballots are counted. Some states, to my understanding, don't permit counting until after polls are closed. That takes time. Agreed on all counts. Milk = gross. Emotional pain = lame.

It probably works when you force a lot of turnovers and don't turn the ball over like we do. Efficient patience on our end, inefficient patience on their end. TBD whether this works against top teams like KC, Detroit, etc.

That's exactly what he did in that debate when Kamala discussed his lame rallies. Hoax. He took the bait hook, line, and sinker.

They need to realize that it's not the government's fault that they're losers. Work harder. Get up early. Cut the booze. Exercise. Show discipline. Do without. And quit blaming others for one's station in life.

I don't know about the friendship piece of that, but I'm with you. He and Hyde go on the Wall of Fame in the new stadium together.

How many defensive regulars did we miss last year in the divisional round? I have a hard time believing that we're not three points better if Bernard/Milano/White etc. plays. Completely agree with your point.

This. I completely agree with this. The D line on the whole has to be more disruptive for the perma-nickel to work against particularly the Ravens. Losing Smoot might be a problem with respect to that matchup. I'd say maybe look into bringing Shaq back, but for the fact that he was part of a shooting the night before the division championship game last year. That, I suspect, ended his time here.

And a high pass rush win rate. He’s played well this year. He’s not an all pro anymore but, off field problems aside, I have no issues with him now.

In the present tense (roughly the past year) wages outpace inflation.

He was. Also three sacks to start the year.

Hoax. They’re exceeding it.

I’m not defending it. I’m pointing out that yesterday’s snap count may not be relevant to that point.
