I haven’t determined a goddamn thing! My response was to the question of what we accept regarding gun culture in this country. Take your search for someone to argue with to somebody who gives a flying F about debating the issue.

Majority of Americans accept the 2nd Amendment and agree with Justice Scalia’s opinion in Heller that while we have a right to own guns, it is NOT an unlimited right to own every firearm in existence. Majority of Americans favor sensible gun law regulations and do not embrace the wild west gun culture we have currently. Poll after poll after poll bears this out.

I’m not surprised. Despite what the prevailing level of cynicism in this country would have us believe, there are many decent people who would try to make a difference.

Pretty sure the “good guys with guns” argument was put to bed in Uvalde when over 70 good guys with guns just stood in the hallway doing nothing. That said, the vast majority of police and other first responders in these situations run towards the danger trying to make a difference.

Which one? There are just so many to choose from.

Josh Allen will never play a down against Pat Mahomes. If Josh needs to mentally overpower anyone, it’s Spagnola and Co. on the Chiefs defense, who were the real MVPs on that team this season.

Does the one inch, five pound difference between him and Hyde make that much difference? Could Tre carry an extra five pounds if needed for the move to FS? There’s a lot of conjecture regarding Tre White, but the idea of just letting him go without knowing his rehab status is shortsighted at best. I wouldn’t count him out, regardless.

Butker and Elliott are better kickers, imo, but that’s not the point. The point is that Highmark is the worst stadium in the league to kick in. The wind conditions are notorious for their unpredictability as they often blow in opposite directions in one end zone vs. the other and the swirling winds can literally change from the time you’re lining up to kick to the time you kick the ball. As such, unless he was battling an undisclosed injury of some sort, I wouldn’t expect radical improvement from Bass, especially later in the season when the winds off the lake really pick up steam.

A defense that gives their franchise QB a chance.

Very thin line between respect, envy, and hatred. I’m choosing to stick with respect.

Bass has two more years of kicking in the worst stadium in the league for kickers. Ask Justin Tucker, the best kicker in history, how he feels about kicking at Highmark in January.

Kennedy kan’t. 😂

Chasm? Near misses hardly qualify as a chasm.

I deleted my initial response to this post because I decided I was not gonna take your bait. Suffice to say, you’re making way too much out of my post. Have a nice evening. I did reconsider as my thanks to the poster who provided much needed additional information indicated. I’m glad that Mahomes Sr. will be held to account because his habitual behavior is a ticking time bomb. Glad the TX authorities recognize that.

Guess it depends on who’s breaking them.

At least his third charge of DWI? That qualifies as a menace, but Texas doesn’t give a flying !@#$.

In reading this thread, I really appreciate all the humor being in the same vein.

Somebody must have rubbed Penix the wrong way during the week.

He looked at the lack of QBs on those teams and made the right decision. I don’t care how great of a schemer an OC is, if you don’t have the right QB, odds are it won’t be pretty.

Has it ever happened that the two teams that met in the very first game of an NFL season also met in the very last game?

Not surprised in the least. His problem has been a recurring issue with his back, but when healthy, he can dominate. And he’s got that mean streak you love to see in an offensive lineman.

That’s perhaps the most unfortunate thing about sports. The vast majority of great players and guys that deserve it the most never even get the chance to win it all. And players seem to understand that better than anyone. Micah is gonna have his name on the Wall of Fame sooner than later.

I’m sure all the great Chiefs players from the AFL and early merger years have been mentioned, but I’ll add Noland “Super Gnat” Smith. Not a great player, but he was freakishly small and fast and was fun to watch return kicks and punts when I was a little kid. He also played Super Bug, the ringer that played for the opposing team in the movie ‘MASH.’
