  1. This is the game Wolf referred to in the press conference.
  2. "I have no problem with his tackling," Dorsey said. "He will get you down. Corners are paid to cover. The tackling aspect, just get the guy down." Well ok then.....
  3. https://mobile.twitter.com/RapSheet/status/1121474474203697152?ref_src=twsrc^google|twcamp^serp|twgr^tweet It may be an interesting night.
  4. 6. What about DQ Jackson or TJ Ward? I just can't remember 2nd rounders that far back. Was MDP a 2nd rounder?
  5. Well I was useless. Props to Darren.
  6. 1. Too long ago for me. 3. The only one I knew for sure was Bell. 5. Ozzie Newsome, Clay Matthews Sr., Jim Brown, Otto Graham, Hanford Dixon?? 6. Wow. Uhhh....Dennis Northcutt, Duke Johnson, Josh Gordon, Joel Bitonio, Mitchell Schwartz, Jabaal Sheard?? Any of these? 7. Eric Zeier is the only one left I can think of.
  7. I love this schedule. The Titans to open the season sounds better to me than Pitt. I'd rather hit those assholes in full stride anyway. 3 primetime games in the first 5 weeks. The AFCE are very winnable games outside NE. Plus, the Bungs 2x, Fins, and Cards in the last 6 weeks of the season. This is the kindest I can ever remember the schedule maker's being to the Browns.

  9. I remember them airing at similar times, but I didn't recall that. Interesting. Would make sense considering their Nintendo connection.
  10. Of course he's narcissistic. Just to run for president you have to be narcissistic. How can you not be to apply for the position of leader of the free world? It's like a prerequisite. Name just one candidate ever that wasn't. Try and you shall fail. So everyone is hypnotized by his imaginary pocket watch except liberals, foreigners, and psychiatrists? Well I'll give you points for originality on that. The fact that you think you're more qualified than most to judge a person's intentions sounds.....well let's just say you have some prerequisites necessary to run for the office yourself. I'm not sure how many Trump supporters you've actually talked to, but I don't think you understand the variety of people that support him. There are a whole lot of them that will tell you his personality is a big big turn off. He's no angel, that's for sure. At some point though, you have to look at policy when doing the math on how Trump won, or shall I say is winning.
  11. "In my estimation" implies I'm going off personal experience. Right? Mental issues is what I actually said. Either way, these people still make choices, many bad ones. Maybe my definition of mental issues is a little broader than your mental illness term. I don't believe it's simply people who drool on themselves. For instance, if you voluntarily live and $hit on the streets of San Francisco because you can't afford rent, when you could eek out a living somewhere else, you clearly have mental issues. Your priorities are clearly not in line with society. Monetary homelessness should be very temporary. Kicked out of the family home, temporary. Lost job, temporary. To permanently find yourself homeless and needing constant assistance implies there is something wrong with you. And I'll go a step further, it probably implies you've refused to get the help you need many times over. I'm not religious myself, but I know churches have always reached out to people in this way. Even if you don't believe, they will help you. Even most local governments have some small operations. If your not willing to adjust your lifestyle, or whatever it is for the sake of survival, you have issues. That's on you and often a choice. This is coming from someone who hands out pocket change quite frequently. Some of the people you think are homeless are not. They make ends meet through panhandling and appearing homeless. Anyways, these types of studies are highly variable and individually unreliable because it requires honesty and can't be truly observed. Human error right? I wouldn't expect every drug user to admit they use, would you? That's kind of common sense stuff. I'm not degrading these folks, but I can tell by your line of questioning your not fond of my take, so what are your thoughts on the topic? Rarely do you actually give those.
  12. Homelessness in most, not all, cases is a choice. In some rare cases it may be a better choice than the alternative, but again it's rare. 90% of the time, in my estimation, it comes down to drugs, mental issues, or both. There are 3 homeless guys that run the area around my job. As in they will run other homeless guys out of their territory. One of them is a tiny crossdressing black guy that every morning strips down to his underwear and practices his dance moves through the reflection in the window, in front of an empty office space across the parking lot. The cops stopped getting him dressed everyday awhile ago, so it's a routine now. There is no amount of money or pills or therapy that will ever get him in a sustainable mode of normalcy. So I'm inclined to say nothing is going to solve homelessness. Therapy seems like it may help some, but certainly won't be a cure by any means. As simple as it sounds, you just have to not want to be homeless. I know it sounds ridiculous, but it's really true. How much does it cost to rent a room these days? $300-$500 A month? Even the lamest job could get you that. Panhandling could get you that. The real question is do these people value a home the same as you and I do? I don't think so.
  13. The Mods are soft!!!
