  1. I hope the screen going blank on that Mayfield ad signifies the end of those stupid commercials. So sick of them.
  2. I know it’s probably an obvious statement, but the key of this game is the Chiefs defense. Gotta hamstring Tannehill and force Henry to win it.
  3. I wish it were the many that fight like hell for a better life. Too many times people allow their “lot” in life to dictate to them, not the other way around.
  4. Some people are predisposed to commit crimes, either simple theft to heinous murder. Some of those that commit crimes are victims of society and/or upbringing. Not everyone is properly taught right from wrong, although that is something that should be inherent at birth. What about those that grow up destitute? That the only way to put food in their mouths is stealing? I certainly don’t condone, but understand. Those that commit murder do it for many reasons - crime of passion, history of mental or sexual abuse, gang activity, revenge, retaliation, mental health, etc. Each reason is personal to that person, and we must try to understand why they did what they did to help others from making bad decisions. The question here is, can AH’s actions be due to a strict upbringing, a bad childhood home and his inability to cope with his sexuality? I certainly do not condone what he did, and believe he was rightfully charged and incarcerated for the murder of Lloyd. Though I understand how his childhood could contribute to him making poor decisions in life. Couple that with his celebrity (high school, college and the pro’s), money and not being held accountable for his actions in previous altercations, it was a recipe for disaster. While he may not have pulled the trigger on the 2 guys in the car, he was certainly a witness and most likely the impetus for their murders. That and his lack of remorse for the murder of Lloyd shows that he was at the very least a sociopath. How he got that way is not exactly known, but his upbringing and adult life most likely contributed.
  5. Chiefs over Titans. Yeah, Henry is going to be tough to handle, but Tannehill will need to step up today and don’t believe he has it in him to do so. Chiefs offense is just too good. Niners over GB. Niners have a good offense and solid defense. GB would need to have a near perfect game to win, don’t see that happening.
  6. I don’t believe AB’s issues are CTE at all. His issue is that he’s an uneducated POS. He feels that his money gives him power to do things “regular” people can’t do and get away with it. His actions are that of a true narsasistic sociopath. I believe CTE is caused by repeated head blows. I also believe the effects can manifest themselves as advertised. There needs to be more research to get real answers though, not every negative action by an athlete can be chalked up to CTE. Shouldn’t be a convenient excuse.
  7. The last 3 years the answer would have been “anyone but the patriots”. Thankfully, don’t have to see them play. First would be San Fran. Been a fan of them since the early Montana days. 2nd would be KC. If neither of them make it, not sure. Don’t usually root for the AFC, and I’m not a fan of the Titans. Would hate to see Tannehill throwing for 67 yards in the SB. As far as the Packers, I’m not a fan of Rodgers. Maybe it’s his persona, but he seems like a jerk. Hopefully a Niners/Chiefs SB. Would be fun to watch.
  8. So, does it identify which client is visiting which URL? Or just a list of the sites visited by all? My guess you would identify via their specific login. Asking for a friend...
  9. Yes. His most violent times were after hitting the NFL, could have been because of CTE. Not sure that was the contributing factor or he was pre-disposed based on his childhood. Interesting question. How could the repeal of the abatement law change his conviction after it was overturned? The law was in affect when his conviction was overturned, shouldn’t be able to change it back once the law left the books. Brought perspective to his life for me. Can’t say I feel he was innocent, but understand what caused/may have caused what he did.
  10. For the end users? Thought that was normal unless your talking abut VPN’s?
  11. We also use off-site managed IT services, do pretty much the same as yours. Had to use the backup once when one of our virtual servers was corrupted. Very happy with them. We discussed internally if we would limit certain sites and/or track. Came to the decision not to...”honor system”. Have not had an issue over the last 3 years since the network was installed with malware or viruses. Can’t recall our Anti-virus, works well.
  12. Jimbo Covert - OL Bears Winston Hill - Tackle Jets (60's and early 70's) Harold Carmichael - WR Eagles Duke Slater - 1922-1931 Ed Sprinkle - DE Bears 1944-1955 Steve Sabol - Contributor - NFL Films Alex Karras - DT Lions Bobby Dillon Safety Packers 1952-1959 Donnie Shell Safety Steelers 1974 - 1987 George Young - Contributor/GM Giants Cliff Harris - Safety - Cowboys 1970-1979 Mac Speedie - End Browns Paul Taliabue Bill Cowher Jimmy Johnson No Tasker..... A couple of ones that I know, Carmichael, Karros, Sabol that deserved to be in. Ohters don't really know.
  13. Is it just me, or does Barkley always looks like a 16 year old teen girl meeting her idol in these pics? Kinda like he can’t believe he’s there. Makes me laugh each time.
  14. Moves like these are unexpected, not surprising now. Dudes got a long life ahead of him, wants to be able to enjoy it....and remember it.
  15. Kinda like MS Office 365. Not a fan of that model. Issue is, when you have as large an installed base as they do, and not many business alternatives, they can get away with it.
  16. Mac for home, forced MS at work unfortunately.
  17. What about the printer issues? That’s going to cause more issues for our users...and headaches for me.
  18. The issue is our users and the suspect places they “May” go to. Wouldn’t want to risk security issues by not being up to date. Planned obsolescence. Apple is famous for that. I Have a few older laptops that run great, but haven’t had updates in years. Worse is their IOS updates that throttle the iPad and iPhones. Makes people upgrade when the hardware is still in great shape.
  19. That’s terrible. We have enough problems with Excel routing to different trays, and occasionally the default printer changing to a random network printer. What was the fix? Or was it patched?
  20. Just about to upgrade to Win 10. Will definitely use another browser over Edge from the feedback I’ve gotten.
  21. We have 20 laptops and 8 desktops we need to replace. All have Win 10 licenses as we downgraded to Win 7 with our purchase 3 years ago. Not sure if we will need new server licenses or not. Not interested in Win 10. Too many people who are computer illiterate and will have issues with it. Mac guy, but actually like Win 7. Never really had a problem except for outlook crashing on my laptop, and the exchange server having issues a handful of times after the auto update. Last update a week ago couldn’t connect using mobile email to the server
  22. He's going nowhere. Only team he would play for would have to have a strong o-line, good WR's, a good TE and lastly a top 5 defense. Not many of those teams around without a viable starting QB. His play noticeably slipped this year, not going anywhere unless its the perfect scenario. He will demand they give him the tools he needs for a final year or two run. Up to them if they keep him or not. Don't see his leaving happening.
  23. Donald singed a 6 year $135 million contract in 2018. Yeah, Clowney may take a short contract with big dollars. I personally don't believe he fits in with the Bills culture. Been a "me" guy his whole career and his statement reeks of "me first".
  24. That would still keep money for the others, correct. Problem is, at 26 he certainly would be looking for a minimum 4 year contract to put him at his final contract at 30/31 years old. He's going to want more than $30 over the life of that contract. 2 year deal is more of a "prove it" contract.
  25. Should be a 49ers/Chiefs Super Bowl. Feel the 49ers have a slight edge based on their defense. I personally am rooting for them, been a fan since the early Montana days.
