Let’s get a few things straight in this bs thread lol 1. Coaches DO NOT discuss trade talks with players and they have every right not to. 2. Pickett sucked. He not just horrible. He was horrible on a historic level. He was given a long leash and was mostly a failure for 2 years 3. Going into Picke...

Fields and Wilson were the most sacked QB’s in 2023, then couple that with being the slowest timed throwing from snap.

Almost certainly will be a season of disappointment no matter which one is behind center. Interesting stats in a Depot article.

And still a huge upgrade from what we had.

Fields and Wilson are on one year contracts at a combined salary of 5 mill and together are much better than Pickett + whatever scrub was going to be brought in. There is, as of now, no downside to having both on the roster since we can move on from either next year if we want. Thank god KP threw a ...

But this is my point. Can we at least agree that pollution needs to be regulated and that we should not have massive garbage islands floating in the Pacific? And my guess is cutting down on pollution (not CO2) and plastics will likely cut down on CO2 emissions. There's plenty to agree on. Same. Mic...

I like the BC and consider them heirs to 70s Southern Rock tradition. They partially filled the gap after Allmans faded and Skynyrd and SRV died. I have friends that make fun of me for being into them, but they were a huge part of high school for me. I still remember being totally bug-eyed the firs...

Beautiful voices are like beautiful faces...there is an expiration date.

"looking at you CA, some of the worst air quality in the world...."

I agree. So why is water and air quality in red states better? TN and the Carolinas have embraced nukes.

Sure as sheeyit isn't better in Utah. Don't overgeneralize!

I think DJ is closer to an Eli Rogers level player than he is to AB. At best, DJ is an Antwaan Randle El level receiver skill wise, but an unclutch fuck-up. El was a good receiver, but not someone you'd want your offense to revolve around. Dude..... I'm 50/50 on the DJ trade, but this is not an acc...

Yeah, vintage rock and roll is pretty much WWE and no one really cares if its fixed. I recently broke out Southern Harmony and Amorica because they put out a new album. Those boys in the Crowes could play. Didn't like what followed, but Warpaint, Frost, and the new album they just put out all slap....

"I'd be happy to blow off worry about the climate if the right and left would agree to crack down on pollution ( looking at you CA, some of the worst air quality in the world.... )." That compound sentence is a self-own. Sacramento has the most fanatical environmental central planners in the countr...

Adding to this, why are cancer rates skyrocketing (statistically) among younger people? Wouldn't be at all surprised if it turns out forever chemicals and things like microplastics enter the reasons. Possibly. But a simpler explanation might be all the processed foods and preservatives in what we e...

"But this is my point. Can we at least agree that pollution needs to be regulated and that we should not have massive garbage islands floating in the Pacific?" Yes and this is far more serious (and solvable and necessary to solve) than CO2. CO2 went down to 180 20K years ago and almost killed the p...

I'm willing to accept a certain level of pollution as a means of lifting people out of poverty and/or increasing quality of life. Air quality, at least in most OECD countries (so not China, India, etc) is considerably better than it was 30-40 years ago. What concerns me more than air quality is for...

Can we at least all agree pollution is bad for us and the natural world? Sure, but CO2 is not a pollutant. In terms of plant life, 800ppm of CO2 - about double where we are today, is considered optimal. 160ppm is a REAL extinction level event where plants start dying off en mass. We had been at abo...

It almost deserves its own thread. I think why the Climate Change alarmism has been so effective is it's become an umbrella for every activist group under the sun, from environmentalism to racism to socialism. A unifying echo chamber, and it's a REALLY big tent. A big problem with left-wing social ...

Why did the mob support the Gracchi? Who actually introduced mob violence into American politics? Where has the bulk of political violence actually come from over the last century? I'm perfectly well aware of who Sulla was. And why a similar figure is desperately needed right about now. Oh? So you ...

I like key-board warrior KC who has never given an ounce of his time in service of anything calling Trump supporters "fake patriots." Of course, if we look at the Gracchi's actual policies, they were all about using the free shit train to gain power. Regardless, I'd take a Sulla right about now. Th...

"You read the history of the late Roman Republic, lately?" Rome went from a Republic to Empire because the executive branch ignored checks and balances and stirred up the ignorant masses to make it happen.

I like key-board warrior KC who has never given an ounce of his time in service of anything calling Trump supporters "fake patriots." My beef (and fear) with Trump is not that he's conservative.

Common sense populism is a refreshing option when the elites have become stupid and corrupt.

Every midwit from a mill diploma working for or with the government thinks he is a genius.

Yeah?

You read the history of the late Roman Republic, lately?

Hatred and anger aren't premises.

😆😆😆😆😆 Spare me the fluff pieces The statement that these are fluff pieces is an evaluation of facts. You seem to mistake your evaluation of facts for the facts themselves—what the greats are actually saying. This habit of mistaking of one's evaluation of reality for reality is a common cognitive di...

My beef (and fear) with Trump is not that he's conservative. He's not. He's a populist. He looks like a Gracchi brother to me. I concur. You may have noticed the....um.... conversations I've been having here Yes. My general takeaway has been: BEHOLD: the danger of living online laid bare.

I'd love to see those accomplishments stacked side by side, though.

Just curious. Put botox and policy aside. In terms of skill, talent at politics, and effectiveness as a Speaker, where would you rank Pelosi in modern era (post-WW II)? Is there a Republican speaker in living memory that even comes close to touching her in terms of skill? Gingrich I'd love to see t...
