Maye is a rook on a terrible team with no weapons and no O line. He will be the 2nd best QB in the AFCE in 2025. Tua cannot hold a candle to him imo. Talent wise they are on completely different levels. He already makes throws and moves around in ways that are well beyond what Tua can do. At the end of the day Tua is a small and injury prone system QB who has to live in the pocket. Maye is a big boy with a strong and accurate arm and he is mobile. In today's NFL mobility is a very desirable QB attribute. He reminds me a bit of Herbert, another good QB. I'm glad he's not the Dolphins QB. On a healthy Dolphins team he would be a menace, especially given the offensive savvy on that coaching staff. With things as they stand now, he will remain the 2nd best QB in the AFCE as long as Josh is in the saddle.

I am saying that the Russian response to events in Ukraine (including the overthrow of a democratically elected pro-Russian government) and generally the eastern expansion of NATO is entirely analogous to the United States taking "legitimate" national security interest in the affairs of countries in the western hemisphere. It may not always be nice (though sometimes it can be) but it's what great powers do. Don't piss in my backyard is the message. Or maybe you, like President Obama, don't think that Russia is a great power, only a regional one. I would invite you (and him) to think again. It remains a world power if you give credence to realism in international affairs. They could incinerate us just as we could incinerate them.

You forgot the Crimean War. They lost that one too, except that Crimea is now part of Russia. Excuse me. It sometimes takes the Russians a while to get their act in gear. You know, the Finns in '38 the Germans in the 1940's. Oh and the Japanese too in the Manchurian Strategic Offensive Operation. As for 1918, hard to fight an external war while at the same time you are fighting a civil war. I think Poland was a Soviet Republic. Wonder how that happened. And wasn't Marshal Rokossovsky a Pole, sorta like Felix Dzerzhinsky? Oh and by the way nobody since Alexander the Great has conquered Afghanistan (military power alone doesn't guarantee victory y'know). And not like us in Vietnam, Iraq, and, oh yeah, lest I forget, Afghanistan, I suppose, in your opinion. We showed them didn't we. i made no claim that the Russian people have always been well governed. They have not. But the quality is there. They have only managed to write a couple of the most heroic pages in the book of human history. In existential conflicts Russia is the place where invading armies go to die. Dude, it's over for Ukraine. That is a tragedy but it should be laid at the West's doorstep, not Russia's. We were ready for a nuclear war because the Russians put a few missiles in Cuba. Do you even know what the Monroe doctrine is? Russia sort of feels the same way. And do you have a clue what happened in Istanbul in 2022? Looks like that was a better deal for Ukraine than what those lightweights Blinken and Sullivan have been able to secure for it. You are uninformed and I've got better things to do than educate you. Adios.

Bassomatic. Didn't muff a conversion and hit a 50 yarder perfectly. Looks like he is compos mentis again.
