  1. Well, we have a chance to tie now if we can get 3 field goals
  2. Perfect pass by Josh. His teammates are not supporting him.
  3. The D is doing their job so far. Time for the offense to produce.
  4. I guess I don’t understand the martyr mentality. Maybe it’s a psychological way to rationalize the tragic death of loved ones. Acknowledging the deaths of loved ones as unnecessary and a waste is tough to do.
  5. This is a good sign. Maybe the civilians are fed up with Hamas.
  6. The world needs more moderate voices connected to the Israel-Palestinian conflict to speak out. As an outside observer, it seems to me that the extremists define the issues so often. I like to think that most people, the silent majority, are not on the extremes and just want to live peacefully. I believe that as long as the Palestinian people allow Hamas to exist, they will forever be suffering. Hamas will continue to attack Israel and the cycle of violence will continue, to the delight of Hamas. Sadly, as in every war, innocent people are suffering and dying. Hamas wanted this war. Under the right conditions, wars can be followed by peace, but both sides have to want stability and peace more than they want revenge. When the culture celebrates every Palestinian who dies as a martyr, they don’t seem ready for peace. I don’t think a single state solution would ever be accepted by Israel since Isralis would not want to be out numbered by Palestinians. Peace seemed so close during the Clinton administration and so far away now. Both sides need leaders who want peace more than war. It’s a totally f’d up situation.
  7. At times Josh predetermined where he wants to throw. I’ve seen this throughout his career. Other times this year he seems stuck on a receiver who is covered, he gets indecisive and throws late or ends up scrambling when other receivers were open. Other times he is stellar with his decisions. Who knows? He needs to find his zen space while playing the most difficult position in sports.
  8. Every team has a bad ending except one each year. Get used to it.
  9. Defense did plenty to win tonight. The problems are on the offense side of the ball.
  10. Von is rushing upfield and no contain on his edge. That scramble to the right by Burrow is open all night when Von is on field
  11. They are back to using Gabe on sideline go routes. So ineffective. I guess we won’t see the quick routes that were effective last week from him.
  12. For anyone interested in learning the history of peace negotiations between the Palestinians and Israel, this documentary describes the history of that process. Whenever peace was close, extremists on either side would sabotage it with violent actions. We seem so far removed from those times now.
  13. Sounds like he has some scheme to avoid paying taxes.
  14. The policy of encouraging and supporting land greedy settlers by the Israli government is insane. With respect to the war, societies across the world figure out how to live peacefully after brutal, vicious wars. It has happened in Korea, Vietnam, Cambodia, Rwanda, Uganda and I’m sure many other places. At some point, the desire for peace and stability becomes greater that the desire for revenge. In some people/cultures, forgiveness takes place as both sides move forward. That is what I hope for. I don’t know if there are any examples of that happening in Muslim cultures.
  15. Hopefully he still has some gas in the tank.
  16. I wouldn’t be surprised if Putin, through Iran, was supporting the attack on Israel. I think Trump is preoccupied with his own issues to be part of this mess. Putin may be trying to divide Americas support for wars, hoping it leads to stopping support for and arming of Ukraine.
  17. Anyone wanting to help the Palestinian people should be protesting against Hamas. Muslim extremism is a dead end ideology that only leads to more suffering for the Palestinians. Until they understand that, the suffering will continue. After WW II, Germany and Japan learned the lesson. Once Hamas is severely weakened, maybe then the Palestinians will be open to peace negotiations again.
  18. Another incredible discovery by the very stable genius.
  19. This disfunction junction is what happens when a party abandons all principle and purpose and becomes a personality cult. They can’t even agree on a platform for what they believe in. They don’t know what they believe in, they don’t know what they want as a party. The Trumpers are afraid of choosing the wrong person who would upset the orange king. The moderates are finally standing up against the radicals. Dems and Pelosi had the same margin of majority and still managed to function fine. At this point they might as well renominate McCarthy. What a mess.
  20. If a jury will convict. No guarantees on that no matter what the prosecutors present. Maybe justice will come someday after all the legal delays have been exhausted.
  21. Flip, flip, flip, flip. When they are staring at prison time Trumps lackies finally tell the truth to prosecutors. Donald’s blood pressure is rising.
