  1. Well, obviously HRC does. But I don't inderstand Benny's attitude, which is "I don't want to know what the HRC Machine does, because I don't want Trump to be president". Some people seem to feel there is nothing worse than Trump...but there is.
  2. You obviously fear him.
  3. Wrex dug himself a big deficit of favor from me, and it will take more than what we have seen for me to exalt him. I'm happy with the way the team has been winning, though.
  4. I agree with most of your post. A nice win. It should be noted that the 49er's suck, though.
  5. The current colors, are perfect. The mix and match really well (white pants/blue shirt is still my favorite), and each version has looked excellent.
  6. He is working his way up to "decent".
  7. Pop-Progressivism will eat itself.
  8. Jerry Rice also played through pain, and rarely missed games. Bringing Rice into almost any discussion about Watkins is a bad idea.
  9. It isn't just the ideas that are ridiculous, it's also the way the conference is run. I can only hope that BLM creates some kind of "South African Exodus Plan", where they can return to Africa, to a well-developed nation, where they can show the world how a country should be run.
  10. C'mon man, we've been getting kicked in the balls for the last 20 years, and the 20 years prior to the Kelly-Era. It's just another disappointment in a long line.
  11. Dareus is an idiot. I would shop him, just to see if they could get a ridiculous offer.
  12. This is the kind of noise that is growing and being promoted by progressives. I can only believe that it's some kind of socio-political shell game that black students have been encouraged to develop. The subtext I hear under all progressive blabber is "I don't get a trophy, and we have to change the rules until I get a trophy". Here it's "we have to change the rules of science, because we don't win often enough. It must be wrong!". Not near quickly enough. There appears to be enough of them on the bottom to feed the top for a while, and some are getting pretty fat.
  13. I am annoyed that he is even on the field when it's a "move the chains" 3rd down. If it's 3rd and 10 (or more) I guess it's alright, but anything else, and one of the other guys should be out there.
  14. Whenever he is out there for a 3rd down and less than 10 yards, he is useless. He has bad hands, and while fast, his route limitations make him much easier to cover. I doubt any DB even considers him taking his route to the middle of the field.
  15. If he can play, he should play, and they shouldn't be concerned with having him "heal up for next season". I have the feeling that Watkins' whole career is going to be "6-weeks on, 6-weeks off", or thereabouts. He's rarely if ever going to be 100%, but instead forever wavering between "85% (playing) and 50% (not playing)".
  16. I think he would get killed. It wasn't "helmet to helmet", Goodwin lowers his head, and Joseph's helmet hits Goodwin's shoulder pad ABOVE his helmet. He is having a hard time staying healthy just being tackled by DB's. Give him the ball behind the line of scrimmage, and sooner or later he will get crushed by some bigger guys.
  17. You mean, something like this....
  18. Thank you. Snark aside, I sincerely don't mean to offend anyone. The main reason I'm concerned with Mexican (and Muslim) immigration, and their voting patterns, is that I believe that the Democrats (I have been a lifelong Democrat, but this election is different) are trying load the country with new immigrants that will vote heavily Democrat for years to come, and use that power to pass progressive policies (some I agree with), that I think could have very damaging long term consequences. It's not because I have any dislike for Mexicans (or Muslims, for that matter, I just think their culture is so different, that assimilation will take a long time. I support humanitarian efforts for them).
  19. You're right, I exaggerated. I think my claim was that those were "the attitudes of Mexicans I'VE MET virtually across the board." But I never "essentially equivocated that they are the only ones to do so". I essentially believe ALL races do it, and the more recently the particular wave of immigrants, the more likely they are to do it. Hence, the Irish were virtually all Democrats when they came over. I wouldn't expect Mexicans to be any different (and lo and behold, they vote HEAVILY Democrat). I never claimed that I wanted to see families broken up, I said I didn't think it would happen (and I don't want it to happen). I said I want them to deport illegals arrested for violent crimes, and that I want them to tighten the border. Where this idea that I think "ALL Latinos are Mexican" came from, I'm not sure (perhaps I mistakenly interchanged the words once, as I typed out a long sentence or something), but I certainly know that not all Latinos are Mexican. Since we are discussing immigration, and Mexicans make up the largest amount of both legal and illegal immigrants in question, I've focused on Mexicans.
  20. I'm not demonizing any race of people. I'm pointing out that they will vote for their own self interest, which holds true if polls are to believed. Go back and read my statements, because much of what you are accusing me of, is the exact opposite of my stated position. And you are a blowhard.
  21. Not racist at all. I don't consider any people of other races to be inferior, or condone persecution or oppression of ANYONE. My position is that there is no advantage to me, to have the demographics of the country tipped out of my favor. Is there a country that would want that? Israel? Japan? Uhh...Mexico? Picture large numbers of Chinese finding their into Mexico, and taking over demographically. Would anyone declare Mexicans that resist, "racists!"? I even noted that I don't want immigrants from white countries either. There are too few jobs, and automation is growing. I am 100% for aiding Syrian refugees, just not granting them citizenship. I feel the best way to help Mexicans, or any other country's people, is to assist them in improving their own country. But I don't believe in granting citizenship to everyone that can get over the border line, because it harms the stability of the country. I'm not disrespectful in my treatment of Mexicans (my wife, 3 kids?), I'm concerned with Mexican attitudes towards white people. The link to "latino rebel" lays out the common attitude I experience. You ask me to disregard my own personal experience, media I have encountered, etc., and instead just accept your own attitude, presented with a bag of wind. To act as though there is no animosity between races is foolish, and dangerous. I have posted in the past, that I support immigration (including Muslims), but that it needs to be done slowly, to allow proper assimilation to take effect.
  22. Yep guys, TakeYouToTasker is clearly a bigot. His anti-white bias is plain for any to see.
  23. Gee, talk about "unproven". ("it's all whitey's fault [largely]") The whole country is playing "Identity Politics", and frankly I can't think of much, if any way I will benefit from more Latino (or Muslim) immigration, at this time. I can however, see some disadvantages (including wading through a deeper, and near continuous chorus of "White Privilege!"). There is nowhere to go with this. But anyway, back to my original point (that compelled Magox to jump in. For some reason he claimed Sanders was pro open borders. When I cited sources that completely dispelled that, he didn't acknowledge them at all, but instead attacked me on some other point. Typical Magox)....I would gladly vote for Sanders over Trump or Clinton. It's a shame he dropped out.
