Darius Rucker maybe. Actually this staff does have a pretty good handle on the defense. I'm in for whatever they think will work.

I don't see any reason why it would not be raised.

A "Guarding Tess" reference. Degree of difficulty on message board: 5.765. Outstanding!

I didnt argue the Fournette should not be arrested. That issue was raised by the other poster. I do not disagree that getting punched can result in serious injury. I also agree that an empty Coors light can likely would not injure you unless you were having a really bad day. I do not agree that a full/semi full beer can that strikes someone cannot cause injury, potentially serious in nature. Finally, I am totally at a loss as to how Fournettes actions with Shaq give the guy in Section 337, Row H, Seat 14 license to toss a beer can at him, even with fournette taunting the crowd.

Ok, I'll take the hit on the Kardashian comment. That was my bad going for a cheap laugh. In fairness though, you went on a rant about Fournette and gronk being douches as if that cancels out the fan behavior. They are not mutually exclusive, and have little to do with the fan's behavior. I sincerely think that type of activity is not harmless. I think it's foolish and when you arrest someone for that sort of behavior it tends to send the right message. I never suggested the jackhole go to Attica, btw, and my assumption would be an appearance ticket would be issued, a little $$$ on the line and a little embarrassment follows. I will say if my son was the thrower, my response would be "Actions have consequences, and thank God no one was hurt.". My father may have been less tactful had it been me. As for the cage match, again, that was more of a guy response to mynperceptiom of cowardly/drunken behavior. We can agree that gronk and fournette are dbags. That's enough for me.

Early on, JA had a couple of those rookie moments where he tried to extend plays by turning away from the line and moving backward. It appears he figured out that with few exceptions, that rarely works out well. Yesterday he seemed comfortable in the pocket, comfortable when running and 100% committed to winning the game. He also seems able to rally the team and while not a come from behind victory, the td after the missed field goal was huge. Good stuff.

Of course I've been to a bar where someone was acting like a jerk. I'm 50+ years old and grew up in WNY. I work in a field where people frequently act like jerks, or worse. In all that time, incredibly, almost as if by magic I never hid in a crowd and threw a beer can at the head of the jerk(s). To the best of my knowledge my friends navigated those waters without throwing a beer can either, but I can see now how much sense it makes because a jackass at a football game offends you. It's the perfect solution. As for the cage match, you are making the argument that it's ok to throw what amounts to a sucker punch from the stands, but wrong to suggest that the thrower should be man enough to meet fournette face to face? I'd think he (assuming the thrower was male, of course) would want to teach that jerk a lesson. Here's the real irony. You're openly advocating throwing beer cans and garbage at people and calling me dumb. Think about that for a minute, and then pretend you're in a debate and your best arguments are: He was a jerk. Other people can be jerks, too. Therefore, the only logical answer is to hurl a beer can at his skull and if it happens to hit some poor attendant working the game, what other choice was there??? (Hint: there are other options)

Easy Bruce Kardashian. Your emotions are getting in front of you here. Yes, I believe a person at a football game who throws a beer can at a guy is a douche who should be arrested. I already explained why. I don't think a person throwing a paper hot dog wrapper at a guy should be arrested, but still represents a douche move. I was absolutely insinuating that Fournette would likely beat the thrower to a bloody pulp if the beer can person faced him squarely instead of tossing a metal object at him from the saftey of the stands. Again, I think someone throwing a can at a crowd can have unanticipated consequences, that seems like pretty basic math to me. I thought the Gronkowski move was criminal, I thought it was cheap and feel like throwing a beer can is a variation of of the same type of behavior. I was all for Gronkowski getting arrested. Before you blow a gasket, there are degrees of behavior, and Gronkowski concussing Tre White would be worse than a beer can hitting Fournette and not causing injury. However, if a full beer can hit someone and say, fractured their eye socket we would have to revisit it. Fournette was a douche, Fournette was not innocent here and deserves to be suspended and fined. I don't think what he did equates to what Gronkowski did, but can understand if you feel it's the same thing. My comment was on the fan and throwing things at players. If your logic is that fans get to throw things as paying customers, and this is a sample of how you express yourself in writing, I'm just not a fan of Bruce_Stools sample.

Lame doesn't cover it. What I see is about 25 people within a dozen feet or so of a guy with a helmet on, and two or three guys immediately adjacent to Fournette. If the object hits any of them, the outcome may be totally different than harmless bouncing off a helmet. I go with criminal. Arrest the douche if you can find him, charge him appropriately and make an example of him. Then, when all is said and done, have him step into the ring in a tough guy competition with Fournette.

Eh...I generally don't have specific issues with the calls. I have issues with consistency in-game, from crew to crew and often quarter to quarter.

This is a sad day for me. I've never placed a poster on ignore, I think it limits the opportunity to consider what others might have to say and how it impacts my own life. Some things I take seriously, some much less so. I don't understand why someone would change the text of what someone else wrote on a message board to score points with...anyone. I'm not talking about "fixed it for you" posts, those are silly and while I don't do that, there is an acknowledgement by all as to what transpired. To me, this is a bit like hanging out with people you don't always agree with, but are in the circle of people you know. You decide to have a party, you invite the person to come, knowing things are what they are. All is going well, everyone having a good time when you go upstairs and find the guy rifling through your cupboards and watch him stuff 3 dollar bills and 78 cents in nickles, dimes and pennies into his pocket. It's not that it's a huge deal, you can absorb the $3.78, in fact you would probably flip the guy a $20 if he needed the money for gas. Still, you are left to wonder what it is embedded in the guy's nature that is twisted enough to do something so petty and irrelevant, to know it is petty and irrelevant, yet chooses to plow ahead anyway. You're the $3.78 guy. Anyway, while I'll solve the problem by placing you on ignore, I'll leave a bag of empty beer cans out front of my house for you. If you're ever interested in salvaging some semblance of integrity, put the effort in, take 'em back and invest the proceeds in the Dale Carnegie course "How to win friends and influence people".

"Stop being a numbnut, Tiberius!"??

This thread was a bust. WiP draws me in under the guise of revealing hypocrisy, then folds like a cheap suit by acknowledging that what Ivanka did was nothing like what Hillary Clinton did. Best I can tell, the only connection is they both had email accounts. I feel cheated.

That wasn't meant to be derogatory. I like Cheesesteak. Come to think of it, I also like Philadelphia. If, though, your name is actually WhitewalkerinPhilly, and people bullied you by calling you Cheesesteak, I guess I understand. I didn't ignore "Ivanka, The Sequel", I wasn't aware you were going all George Lucas here. Anyway, have a blessed day.

But it's been established, without question, from the highest law enforcement official in the land, with the support of the entire Democrat party, that use of a personal email is no big deal. What's changed Cheesesteak?

But does the constitution or this so-called Appointments Clause mention Whittaker by name? No one wants to address that.

Oh, he hit West Dakota as well. I always forget that. He's really cool though, smokes camels and often rolls up his sleeves.

I think he may be on to something. The Fins speak Finnish. Heck they drive Fjords over there. The language barrier alone seems insurmountable. Though on this one, as with others, djt sounds an awful lot like off-prompter barrack speaking about visiting all 52 states.

The brother wakes up from a nap, apparently disoriented, runs out, talks to his mother then hurls himself from the 14th floor. Anderson Cooper--and I don't mean to disparage his pain, or how he deals with this, but I'm really creeped out by that damn picture----AC says his brother had an issue with "impulse control". Uh...yup, or Momma tossed him over the railing.

I have no idea who she was, and missed a decapitated head, what looks like a guy being tortured, a Life magazine photo shoot decades ago, and an odd three finger raptor hand on one of the wealthiest women in history. I shouldn't be surprised, some days I leave things on my wallet to take to work, pick the item up, move it to the side, take my wallet and leave. I'll look into some of the other symbolism moving forward. You're off the enemies list, I can never hold a grudge and thinks to 3rd for his input as well. Oh, and on the brother committing suicide, I'm thinking they need to look at Momma G. I'm checking this out as well.

Aw snap. Truth is, my assumption was this was a women with her two kids in a photo shoot. The look on her face was troubling enough, I never really looked at the display up top. That is suitably gruesome. If there is more symbolism that I'm missing I really have no idea. We have pictures of our kids on the walls here, we're not so much into ritual sacrifice and beheading.

that look on her face is frightening. She looks like the witch from the old fairy tale (Reimagined for 2018), Hansel and Hansel.

I believe you are now my enemy. I read that entire Rolling Stone article and was reminded how the basic premise of the magazine is to use 15,000 words to tell a story that could be told in 800. I know that is pretty common in journalism but the added hipster-Dufi angle makes me want to move to a place where free speech is stifled. Iran, perhaps, or maybe California. I. blame. you.

I try not to get too personal in these posts, but yes. She even used the full length version to give the appearance of a room above-grade. She saw it on "Flipping the Basement" and told him it "gave texture and customized the space".

The enacted tax cuts resulted in a substantial reduction in my estimated tax. I hired another employee. There is a noticeable increase in new construction, employment and overall confidence in the economy in my little slice of the world. Word on the street is that there are a ton of basement remodels going on, so there is something literally for everyone, even the Sanders supporters.
