  1. Are you aware of Thomas's past? It was a light hearted reference to Anita hill's testimony
  2. Clarence Thomas spiked her drink hoping to get lucky
  3. He's a little undersize for sure but at least this is another sign bills are focusing on their needs. Picking up incognito at guard and looking closely at QB market in draft and FA...TE, OG and QB would be the top 3 items on just about any rational observers list. Which means in the past the team wouldn't have been focusing on them. Things seem to be looking up for next year.
  4. you missed the point, which i thought was clear. but to rephrase, you cant judge a player by one play
  5. Yup it was a bad play. Every QB whose taken any decent amount of snaps has plenty. Like .... Tom Brady taking a safety on first possession of super bowl against giants Peyton manning throwing game ending pick 6 against saints in super bowl Russell Wilson not audibling out of bad play call 2nd and goal at the 1 in super bowl and throwing game ending pick Give up on all those guys too?
  6. Jets with Sanchez: 37 wins, 31 losses Jets last 2 years without Sanchez as starter: 12 wins, 20 losses yeah, it was a plug and play system, dream job for any QB
  7. I want the better player determined by competition to start. Why is that so hard to understand? Look, no QB available is perfect. I'm aware Sanchez has some flaws, but considering will be available at an affordable rate and we won't have to give up draft picks, I'll take his: - back to back AFC championship playoff appearances - stellar post season stats - winning record as a professional - only one losing season in 5 as a starter And the one losing season was the tebow substitution fiasco that I can't imagine how any QB would have thrived. Take away that season and his rating has improved every year: 63, 75.3, 78.2, 88.4
  8. I tend to follow the epic fighter, but all things being equal id go with boxing. In boxing Floyd is the only one I follow these days, as lb for lb he may be the best all time (certainly one of them). For a while I probably watched more MMA with GSP, Silva and Jon Jones. But right now with GSP sidelined and silvas iffy comeback, only Jones is of interest to me
  9. Well ones a country with a citizenry and dissenting views, and the other is a militant group where the fighters pretty much follow the leader. So in that sense I dont think they're comparable entities. That's why my comment was regarding the current the leadership of both.
  10. Is the leadership of them all that different? Both are religious zealots who think their god gave their people the land. Both ignore international law and claim territories of their own that the rest of the world doesnt recognize as theirs. And both are in the process of eliminating anyone in the way ... one with relatively primitive weapons, the other with the latest high tech ones. Can one really say that cutting a captive's head off with a sword is worse than slaughtering kids on a beach with high tech weapons (among many other atrocities from both sides)?
  11. I think Floyd wins too, think he always would have. He just wanted to limit the damage he'd take, even in a win, given PACs stamina. But PAC is slowing down and now that its hit the sweet spot where Floyd has enough skills left to win handily. Ilk certainly watch but with this build up it will be hard to live up to expectations. $120mm for one fight for Floyd is bigger than the richest multi-year NFL deal
  12. Apparently you don't as you're suppprting a foreign policy that's helping put it back together
  13. Yup simple as that. "Russian leaders have adamantly opposed NATO enlargement, and in recent years, they have made it clear that they would not stand by while their strategically important neighbor turned into a Western bastion. For Putin, the illegal overthrow of Ukraines democratically elected and pro-Russian president -- which he rightly labeled a coup -- was the final straw. He responded by taking Crimea, a peninsula he feared would host a NATO naval base." Now that sanctions haven't stopped Russia (no surprise as they simply cannot back down and lose face not this), and Russian backed rebels are outdueling ukraine govt troops, western leaders and media are crying foul. And as usual it looks like us/west intervention will have the opposite effect than intended, in this case an expanded soviet empire and dramatically smaller and weaker Ukraine that will be an economic liability to us and Europe. Not missing a beat the goof ball lackies on this board just soak up all the state propaganda supported by a compliant media and fall over each other demomizing Putin as the evil aggressor. Never ever do they consider the action of others as a reaction to anything we do ...sure in that myopic vacuum anyone that opposes our interventions is the bad guy whose actions can only be explained by maniacal evil hell bent on global domination. And most tragic of all is the elites and special interests in DC that make policy don't give a lick about what's best for american people, they just try to maintain enough support amomg the lackies to continue the charade
  14. individually no, but ill go to a sports bar
  15. 1. Floyd Mayweather Jr. vs. Manny Pacquiao – May 2, 2015 – $250 million The much-anticipated bout between Floyd Mayweather Jr. and Manny Pacquiao will finally happen May 5 at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas. This fight is going to drown in money. It is expected to shatter every financial record in boxing. Mayweather could earn $120 million, while Pacquiao’ s split of the purse will likely be around $80 million. According to some reports, the pay-per-view fight could cost households $100 and $110 for the HD signal. MGM is also expected to make $20 million in ticket sales, so expect a single ticket to be in the thousands. Oddsmakers expect Mayweather to prevail, making him a 2 1/2-1 favorite in the scheduled 12-round bout. http://losangeles.cbslocal.com/2015/02/20/top-5-richest-boxing-matches/

  17. All $5 billion, huh? And supporting "western leaning" didnt go into fomenting the uprising? Lol course not And you believe this because Victoria nuland said so? The woman caught on tape maneuvering how shed get her guy in power in Ukraine even if EU didn't support the tactic. Lol ok
  18. Is the US training and funding the Ukraine opposition? Nuland herself claimed in December that the US had spent $5 billion since the 1990s on "democratization" programs in Ukraine. On what would she like us to believe the money had been spent? http://www.ronpaulinstitute.org/archives/featured-articles/2014/february/09/victoria-nulands-ukraine-gate-deceptions/
  19. I want them both, competing
  20. Victoria Nuland leaked telephone conversation on Ukraine:
  21. Just like we made a mistake reaching by using a first for ej in a weak qb draft class, I don't want us to reach and pay up in bucks and/or draft picks in a weak fa class. Best to keep our powder dry for at least another year and get an affordable player like Sanchez
  22. Its not true, you saw his playoff stats. And the team got progressively worse without him, while the defense continued to play at high level
  23. Must be ours too since we gave him the opening by helping overthrow a democratically elected leader on his border, fomenting chaos in a country with a large ethnically Russian population
  24. Always been my #1 choice of the available candidates because a) he's proven he can win in a ground and pound, defense oriented program, and b) he won't cost an arm and a leg
