6 is a number. It’s the number of points the Vikings were awarded for Diggs last second TD against the Saints. The story it tells is that the game had a different winner because of it.

Tim Tindale squished the fish.

He’s a corner. Bill haaaaaaaaaaaaaates corners.

See how easy that is?

Have you read a single thing written about this movie that indicates it in any way blames democrats or absolves republicans of a single thing involved? Don’t go see this movie or any movie if you don’t want to see it. I’ll just point out that making the statements you made above about people who have seen it is something that is better backed up rather that simply stated. Is wrongthink the correlation you draw to the actors? How did that wrongthink find its way into the movie? If it did, why haven’t even the negative reviews pointed out a single specific example? If there is no wrongthink in the movie and if is reasonably factual, what is the problem? There was a terrific documentary series on Netflix called “The Pharmacist” about OxyContin and the opioid crisis. A similar dramatization with Michael Keaton called “Dopesick” was about the same topic. Dopesick blamed members of both parties. The Pharmacist didn’t go so much into politics but documented the inaction of the bureaucracy. I thought both were well done although they still make me sad. I have no idea of the political affiliation of the actors, producers or financiers of either. The underlying topic is clearly a concerning one. I think the underlying topic of child trafficking is concerning as well.

None of the above has anything to do with the movie itself. Not a thing. I’m sure there was dramatization but the core content itself is based on actual people and their stories. Why does the lead actor matter? Many actors have opinions on all sorts of topics. Some have even lost their marbles. One just shot a woman on set. How does that connect to their movies? Have you stopped watching Kevin Spacey movies? No more Christmas Vacation for you because Randy Quaid? Watching Harvey Weinstein productions off limits? I saw a rebuke of the movie in another review that called it political simply because it “overstated” the number of children being trafficked in today’s world. It offered no explanation of the claim. It made no statement about real trafficking numbers. It offered no opinion on what number was “acceptable”. It did not deny the reality of the movie’s main plot. Should the story be dismissed because of the politics of the lead actor or is that really sticking fingers in ears and singing la la la? Many, many of the best movies both biographical and fictional are about individuals overcoming odds for a good cause or personal redemption. Actors and actresses of all political stripes have contributed to these stories. No one is forced to see this or any movie but dismissing a movie, calling a movie “political” and backing up that claim with vapor is weak sauce.

What about Dustin?

He’ll be a good pickup for Fantasy Football if you can get him in the 7th or later.

The dude is lazy and I’m sure wholly uninterested in training camp. He wants $$$$$$$$$$$ and that’s all.

And some bad news for you:

Luck was more hyped for more time than LeBron. Leaf got a lot of run but for a relatively brief period.

He was far worse than the press made him out to be. Far worse. Much like some reporters are constantly saying Josh will regress because they had a bad take on him and need to be right, they just kept saying Luck was great when he simply wasn’t. That W/L record came against the worst division in the history of football. If he makes the HOF they should just go ahead and close the place. Had he continued playing…..nobody knows for sure but I disagree with your assessment. He certainly wasn’t the worst QB ever, just the most overrated prospect ever.

Shirley you can’t be serious.

He’s a jerk.

Most overrated prospect in the history of professional sports. He consistently messed up in big moments and was gifted the worst didvision in the history of football. It would diminish the value of those already in. If he gets in, Tony Mandarich might as well.

Best rigor mortis joke on this site in weeks.

Hilton? Gross

The Sage advice I received was to only eat lentils. It was bad advice.

He’s worth as much as OBJ, or even more. The problem is that OBJ is worth about 3.5M per. Baltimore’s stupidity, so far, has not spread to other teams.

I don’t know everything. Nobody does. For instance you should look up the meaning of the word “if” which I used in my last post.

You must have been in the alternative reality where he wasn’t caught and suspended and won’t face an increased suspension if it happens again.

If you find yourself repeating things, you’ve gone insane.

Yada yada yada WebMD yada yada chemical compounds yada receptor module yada. Dude cheated, got caught, got suspended and pulled a Fernando Tatis excuse. If it happens again it’s a longer one.

FWIW I don’t consider Hopkins a giant douche bag like Watt, but he is clearly interested in money only and despite the arguments from many here, he has displayed work ethic issues along with the litany of other reasons he won’t work. I get the swing for the fences and don’t really disagree with the “what”, just the “how”. If we got him, I’d root for him with no issues. Given the choice, I’d prefer him to Beckham. Overall, I’m against signing him. And Mr. Neverwrong is wrong again with his 98% wrong assessment of me. Ask him what percentage of the time he is right and he’ll explain that it is roughly 116%.
