  1. Looks like Tarzan, plays like Jane. When you're blocked like that, you make a pile. You don't just give ground until you're sitting with the fans.
  2. Boy, paying a defenseman on the wrong side of 30 that kinda coin for that term is risky. I'm really curious to see Hall in Blue and Gold. He's a real difference maker.
  3. I love the journalistic idea that players don't get better after they enter the NFL. Anyone heard of Tom Brady? Early in Brady's career, he struggled mightily to throw the ball down the field and especially deep outs to the boundary. There's plenty of credit to go around. Allen isn't a finished product but he's well on his way and he's a worker. The front office has evolved the roster, surrounding him with better players. The coaching staff has been consistent in both staff and scheme, adjusting as necessary to give him the best chances of succeeding. It's been a clinic on how to develop a young, talented QB. The anti-Jets. If that draft was done over again, Allen CLEARLY goes first overall. Well done Brandon Beane and company.
  4. I think all you have to do is watch what Daboll has done with Diggs versus the offense in Minnesota. We're leading the league in 10 personnel usage and Diggs is lining up all over the place. JA clearly has supreme competence in Diggs because he keeps making small window throws in his direction and getting rewarded. They are throws that maybe 5 other guys in the NFL even try and Cousins ain't one of 'em. People use the term "Diva" because we've started marginalizing actual competitors. It's a sad state of affairs.
  5. Every QB throws at least one ball per game that should be intercepted. Mahomes put one right between McCourty's numbers on the opening drive Monday night and was really fortunate it was dropped. I have no issue whatsoever with JA throwing 50/50 balls to this receiver group because they pass the eye test. If I'm JA, whenever I see Diggs singled I'm throwing it his way.
  6. The smug runs deep in him.
  7. Yep. For probably around 20 years. My standards ain't high, which is why even the trolls barely get a sideways glance from me. It's politics, not kindergarten. It's not supposed to be an echo chamber for the weak. Historically, it's always been messy. But thanks for narcing. You're clearly exactly what PPP needs more of. LOL
  8. Intimidated? On a message board? Seriously? Holy MFing grow a pair.
  9. I really don't disagree with anything you've posted here but I don't see much difference between the devotion and the blame. There are at a minimum DOZENS if not hundreds of people responsible for the real crimes who actually know what they are doing is wrong. Instead we (society) pretend that the guy at the very top is some kind of evil genius puppet- mastering the whole thing. I doubt Trump, who has never run for anything knew much about campaign finance beyond basic numbers. Call me crazy but he just doesn't seem like a big "minutia" guy. I've worked in big organizations most of the last 2 decades. In my experience, there are a couple of people who run everything and the person at the very top has almost no idea what's really going on most of the time. When ***** really hits the fan, they're almost totally surprised because they almost always get a very sanitized version until it's too late to keep covering it up.
  10. Right. Because Donald Trump does his own campaign finance paperwork along with his own taxes. Politicians don't really want campaign finance reform. Taking away the "incumbent advantage" would level the playing field and the trash that has spent a lifetime in DC would likely be out in a single election. So that's about as likely as HRC ever being elected President.
