Yeah, because you're allowed to have your opinion but Sean Penn is a bastard for having his. Have you even seen Milk? What makes you think he didn't deserve the award?

Yeah, IMO any other movie taking home the best picture would have been a travesty.

Or The Two-Freded Monster.

We would definitely have to come up with a nickname for the double fred backfield.

Really? REALLY? Is this what the thread has devolved to? It's like a thread about the greatest football player in his prime...and 838 posts later somebody nominates Mike Williams.

I'll be a LOT more skeptical than I was this year...having said that, yes, if you can't get excited over a 5-1 record there's no reason to watch at all.

I teleported 40 yards unofficially. On the stat sheet, they marked me down for a 0.1, but it was actually much closer to just straight up 0.0.

Here's my solution to most PC problems...buy a Mac.

We have nuances this year? Awesome! Maybe the next season, we can pick up some intricacies.

The first one is not so much "stupid" as it is ignorant to the nature of the NFL season. The second one, on the other hand, is one of the dumbest things I've ever had the misfortune of reading. Anybody who thinks a Bills fan would just pack up their family and move to a different city to follow a football team isn't in touch with reality one bit.

Or whoever pays him the most.

If you think that was the dumbest post of the year, you haven't been paying close enough attention.

I'd be all for it...to me, it's a sign that we'll be more committed to the run this year. And hey, Freddy is past his prime but it never hurts to have a 10,000 yard rusher on the roster.

I know how tempting the shiny new toy is for a front office, but this year they need to solidify our defensive line with the first pick, plain and simple.

Holy crap. This story is tragic and mind-boggling to say the least. I'm keeping an eye out for more details.

It's not a stereotype to say that folks who grew up poor in the inner city (like many NFL players) are generally not as well behaved as folks who grew up in the quiet suburbs of Canada or the Northern US (like many NHL players). That's just common sense.

If they were willing to fight to the last man, why did they surrender after the two bombs? I'm not being snarky here, I'm legitimately curious.

He's not dropping to 11.

Chris Neil doesn't have "grit"...Chris Neil is dirty and shouldn't be in the NHL anymore, IMO. How many suspensions has he had? Five? Seven?

And yet the game was tied with 6 minutes left to go, and we actually had more shots on goal than they did. Sabres didn't play a horrible game, the Flyers just happened to capitalize on our mistakes. The short handed goal was the one that killed me.

Well said as always deano. And what can I say? They don't like me for some reason. I never said that the bombs shouldn't have been dropped. I mostly implied that we'll never know which option was the lesser of two evils and that more civilians, in the long run, PROBABLY died from the A bomb. Also, that Truman can't be blamed. World leaders have to make horrible decisions in war time. I'd be interested to see if people would be so cavalier about the loss of civilian life if it was two American cities that the bombs were dropped on. Let's flip the situation, hypothetically. Japan has the option of invading the US or dropping atomic bombs on Mesa, Arizona and Tacoma, Washington. They choose to drop the bombs, and the war ends. How do you feel about the Japanese? Did they make the right decision? Or are they monsters that killed millions? The life of an American soldier is no more valuable than the life of a Japanese civilian, so treat the bombings as they ought to be treated...a horrible, horrible tragedy. One of the worst the world has ever been witness to. A necessary tragedy? Maybe. We will never know. But when you say something like "You should thank god they dropped the bomb, or else you might never have been born", it cheapens the lives lost. Here's the thing about war...nobody wins. Ever.

Not nearly as many. You and your straw man fallacies.

Alas, we will never know. Either way, it was a Catch 22 for Truman. Nobody should have to make that decision.

I don't know...he chose the lives of soldiers over the lives of civilians.

I don't understand how this happens so often. Did Crabtree and Texas Tech think that nobody would ever figure out that he's 6 foot 1?
