He needs to stay on General Hospital and get an evil twin who's a better sports commentator.

Democrats are outraged by what Trump says. Democrats ignore what Hilary Clinton does. It's a great story for Scandal but in real life, you put Clinton in the White House and you're going to have a President who'll be impeached in the first term. If she's done all of this just to get in the White House, what do you think she's going to do once she's in there?

How about mandatory body cameras + stop/interview/frisk + a training program developed by the FBI and state police in each state to improve approaches to the use of force, with mandatory accreditation requirements? I don't know what Chicago thinks is going to radically change without a dramatic new approach in the neighborhoods. TBH, and this might be an aside, I thought the police deployed taser technology to avoid having to draw their service weapons on people.

Pennywise and John Wayne Gacy, and to a lesser degree, Brian Dennehy's acting ability in playing John Wayne Gacy. You watch either miniseries and you're not going to like clowns either.

The third parties picked a poor year to have space cadets as their chosen candidates. She (Stein) is really no more firmly grounded on the planet than he is. Both parties (Green and Libertarian) could have probably done some damage with legitimate candidates.

I'm amazed the Libertarian party couldn't find someone better. He comes across even more goofy if you just listen to him on the radio. I was listening live, flipping through the news channels, when he had the Aleppo moment. That's like Ross Perot not knowing who the Kurds were in 1992. Thinking about it - Ross Perot, as a third party candidate, capturing 19% of the vote in 1992, is akin to the Bills going to four straight Super Bowls. Probably won't be eclipsed.

If Tony Romo was my friend, I wouldn't let him pick up a heavy box, not to mention play professional football. Back problems are no joke. Back surgery is like frame work on a car. You're never the same.

Two theories for discussion: #1. Is it because the NFL employs more and more men that aren't "likeable"? Professional wrestling had it right in the 1980s. They understood you needed the heroes and the heels. NFL today, it seems like coaches and players alike enjoy being the heel via on field actions or off it. Outside of wins and loses, is there enough players and coaches that are generally likeable human beings playing the game today? #2 Peyton Manning retired and a lot of people were simply interested in watching him and he was very popular with a swath of football audience that didn't care about the game, but did enjoy watching him and his career.

The more I read about why Myles Jack isn't playing, the more it reminds me of what happened to Aaron Curry, the former Wake Forest, Seattle Seahawk linebacker. He was drafted 4th overall in the 2009 draft and was a pass rush and tackling machine at Wake Forest. A Von Miller for that time. Seattle didn't do any favors for this guy. They started him out strong side and asked him to do things he didn't do well at Wake Forest (pass coverage) and not to do things he did well at WF (rush the passer). They bench him and trade him to Oakland who then turns him into a weak side linebacker - a position he hadn't played before and on top of it, made him again, play the pass more than rush the passer. I see the Jags have already moved Jack from the position he played in UCLA and he's been slow to pick it up. I don't know why organizations don't put their draft picks in positions to succeed and let them do what they do well. The reason he's not playing isn't on Jack or his knees but the Jags not drafting the player they really needed.

You asked if government had a profit motive. In Harrisburg they do. The only reason anything on that list was legislated was to maximize profit to Harrisburg, mostly through fees, not 100% taxes. Of course, they call it "revenues" but the media goes nuts here when gambling money is above what's expected and the archaic state store model hasn't disappeared from PA yet because it brings so much cash into the coffers after paying for all the staff, buildings, etc. Of course, that's state vs. the federal level (you mentioned the IRS).

Just to add - Pennsylvania is selling anything that isn't bolted down because it has major pension and real estate tax problems that it doesn't want to practically fix. Natural Gas (they collect some cash here) Alcohol (the legislature is very very reluctant to give up the state stores.) Marijuana (going to legalize medical use, and they have lucrative fees and taxes attached to the legislation.) Gambling (lucrative fees) Gasoline (they said to pay for transportation but it's really just an excuse to fund the state police they would otherwise underfund) Cigs (big tax on those, and they continually up the tax to balance the general fund) TBH, I can see the day that states start legitimately considering legalizing prostitution. The pension crisis is going to be that bad when the pension rooster comes strutting home.

Wasn't this all resolved in the movie 2010? You aren't supposed to go anywhere near Jupiter.

If I were him, I'd stay in NE and take over after BB retires. None of the Belichick coaches have had long term NFL coaching success outside Foxboro.

I'm one of those 12. He didn't do well. It wasn't a knock out performance and she was far more smooth, practiced. However, she's the status quo candidate. She did not do a good job in telling anyone that the status quo should effectively keep "quoing." She lost because she didn't seize the opportunity to tell that story ahead of the future debates that are going to get mired in the foundation, her emails, her foreign affairs record. She had to talk about how it's morning in America and she did not. Get out ahead of what's coming.

That defense is absolutely tragic. Full of "I've heard of hims" that can't tackle.

I am voting for Trump but I don't think he did very well last night. IMO, he needs to relax and talk about how the status quo isn't working for a lot of Americans. Whether it's deliberate or not, last night's debate was a mirror image of his performance in the first GOP debate. That being said, I think the Democratic strategy is not a winning one. She spent the entire night trying to make Trump look terrible and it's all old news everyone has heard by now. Her best bet was to focus on a positive future, not him. Lester Holt was bad. He was wrong on the stop and frisk "fact check" and he set Clinton up to get crucified over her shortcomings in future debates.

It'll be interesting to see if Lester Holt still has a career by 11pm tonight. I don't understand why he agreed to be a moderator of this debate. He doesn't have the gravitas of Tom Brokaw. He can easily disappear just like Candy Crowley did.

..because I didn't care. Didn't watch the game. Didn't check in on it. Didn't listen to it. I treated the gorgeous Sunday afternoon as if the Bills were on the bye. I do find that the less attention I pay this team the better they perform so maybe I'm the root cause for the last 16 years. I'm pleasantly surprised. Thought the Cardinals were going to come in and wallop the Bills.

People are getting bored with the product. I'll add one to McNasty's fine list: It's football 24-7 now. Too many talking heads, too many shows, too much coverage. Too many national games with the same teams and the playoffs always have the same teams. There's no newness, no suspense. Oh wow. Aaron Rodgers and Tom Brady in a Super Bowl ?! Absolutely astonishing.

"Patriots beat Bills with no professional quarterback on the roster" That my friends gets you fired. Don't be surprised BB rolls with Edelman as the starting quarterback just to see what happens.

The Patriots will bring 48 year old Jeff George out of retirement. He will throw for 450, 3tds.

New England coaches are hot, wet garbage anywhere but Foxboro. Matt Patricia is one of the smartest men in football because he gets it. IMO it's because the corporate intelligence apparatus behind the scenes that BB has built there in Patriotland takes years to build with the right people and you don't have it nor the time to build it when you coach somewhere else.

The networks aren't permitted to go to commercial break if she has an episode at a debate. http://drudgereport.com/flashny.htm I'm sure they are spending all of this downtime before the debate medicating and resting her to perpetrate the lie that she's "healthy". IMO, it helps pace out the infusions she gets. Infusions are rough on the body. You don't bounce back immediately from them and you are at your best a few days after them.

The Texans are a poorly coached team that ran into the juggernaut of superior coaching last night. That Texan defense talent wise should have dominated the Patriots.
