  1. I wonder if Howard is such a mess because he is in financial straights over paying Chuck to leave HHM. He did say the money was his personal funds. Jimmy is in his own witness protection program, the one the vacuum cleaner guy got him in. As far as another spinoff, believe there is discussion of another show. Heard it would be Gus? Don't remember where I heard it, believe it was on one of the extra's on AMC.
  2. I don't even know how to respond. Bet your thinking I shouldn't... Addiction is a disease for many, choice for some. A lot of people start out simply enough enjoying a good buzz, or a good high and then it gets out of hand. Others don't necessarily enjoy the buzz/high, they are trying to medicate themselves for whatever reason - not all people are equipped to deal with their personal demons as some others are. I choose to understand that all people are different and handle their issues in different ways, some being self-destructive. I'm sorry you have only been around those you deem are "dead beats", but you can't paint all those suffering from addiction with the same brush. I know many people (due to my profession) who have had loved ones die from addiction along with a handful of my coworkers that were lost, and I would not call these people "dead beats". They came from varied backgrounds, mostly suburbanites who had "everything" to live for and were the last ones you'd suspect of having an addiction problem. Many of them had great careers and family's. It's not just the homeless person who lost his/her job and lost all hope, or the person living in poverty that society forgot about. It can be anyone. You must be blessed to have not had to deal with loss due to addiction on a personal level. Just remember, you have absolutely no idea what other people have dealt with in their lives. Be it the person working next to you who seems to have it all together, or the person you look down upon. A little compassion goes a long way. Someone who is caught up with addiction, or dies from addiction is no less a person than you and I. They deserve love and respect as much as anyone else. As for Mac Miller, my 21 year old son loved him and made me listen to his music. His newest album is pretty damn good. RIP.
  3. At least last second field goal gives you hope. I still have to go to 8 home games and we’re down 40-0. Hope I’m wrong and they rebound after this one.
  4. What proof do you have they are moving the team? Worst roster possible? Benjamin, McCoy, Clay, Hughes, Williams, Poyer.... shouldn’t Vm dignify your post, but our roster isn’t the whole problem.
  5. At this point, ha gotta put Allen in. Peterman simply can’t get it done today.
  6. What bothers me is the hype from our playoff team, excitement of a new season...and this. Already feel we have to wait until next year.
  7. “This business will get out of control. It will get out of control and we'll be lucky to live through it.” –
  8. Looks like scripted offensive plays that Nate didn’t adjust to the defense being on the field....
  9. Forgot it’s Michaels and Collingsworth announcing. Can’t stand either of them. Also can’t stand to hear Rodney Harrison pontificate. Useless group. Hopefully a good game, kinda rooting for Philly.
  10. I gotta say after watching the video, give him a look. His 2 TD’s were better throws than Tyrod can do. First one, threw they guy open. Second one, let the receiver make a play. Most of the throws were short passes, almost screens. Seemed to be situational with short yardage for a first. He did seem to make those dump off passes after looking downfield a few times. Honestly remember the hype over him. Concerned that he’s been a disaster. Worth a look see and possibly be our 3rd running the scoUt team.
  11. McVeigh snapped at some point, I just don’t buy the Bills losses contributed in any significant way to his turn. I’m sure losing a grand wasn’t fun, but there were many other issues in his life that made him change.
  12. Bojorquez didn’t even punt once in a preseason game. Must of really hated Schmidt.
  13. Not going to get crazy over a punter, but what the heck? Incumbent in NE had 22 punts in preseason, yet this kid had none. A couple of bad punts can turn a game. Hope they did their due diligence, would have rather kept Ryan if they were this hell bent on booting Colton.
  14. A little surprised he was traded. Kinda expected him to be the veteran presence. Surprised we got a 5th.
  15. 2 first round picks? Absolutely! Would do it in a heartbeat. As mentioned by others, 1st round picks are a crap shoot. With Mack you know exactly what your getting...a generational player. He’ll be a stud on your team for many years. The track record of 1st rounders league wide is poor at best, again with Mack you know exactly what you’re getting. As as far as $$$, our cap is looking good starting next year, so structure the deal to accommodate that. Stay under the cap this year, then take the hit next year and beyond.
  16. Not sure the line is as bad as they loooked. I know we lost Woods and Incognito. Don’t count Glenn as he was out most of last year. There were some jailbreaks on Allen, but he also held the ball a bit. Also, not sure how much game planning the team did. Would they have played better without generic blocking schemes? lastly, Castillo has a track record of being a poor o-line coach, so there’s room for an upgrade there.
