    My apologies.  I shouldn’t have said that you don’t know football.  
     

    chandler Jones was worth the money in the beginning of the 2020 season.  If he were a free agent prior to that season, he would’ve received more than 15M imo.  Then he suffered and injury.....and now he’s not even worth 15M on a one year contract?  He could be the difference maker for this Bills team.  


    agree to disagree. 

    No apologies allowed here mister!!😁

    Because you didn’t think Jones was elite in 18 and 19.  He was. For sure

    Every one of my comments has mentioned his cost, the fact that I thought it was 2017 and 2018 and forgot it was 2019 also really doesn't make your point that I don't know the NFL. Or are you of the mindset that knowing everyone's stats for every year they have ever played is a requirement to be a NFL fan? 

     

    I also want to add I never once insinuated he was not elite. I said I would have paid him an elite contract in 2017 but not now.

     

  3. That was the likely the worst QB draft in a long time. We knew we were gonna draft a QB and none of the were decent, though we got the best of the bunch. Acting like there was a chance at a good QB at that time is stupid, no free agents, no drafted players, no good QBs available by normal means. Whaley's biggest issue was he did not build teams around the wants and abilities of his coaches.

    Hoax.  You believed it to be efficacious in this context.  Try it with zinc and a zpac, you said.  Mix it up with some Lysol and roundup, too, you said.  And now we know that the idea that HCQ is an effective treatment for COVID is junk science. 

    HCQ is not as effective as we originally thought, what is odd is you apparently took medical advice from a politician. I take mine from doctors who are not on TV regularly because all the dudes on TV are more interested in looking good than being accurate.

    Glad you can still see.  Figured you had ingested so much HCQ in the past year that you might have gone blind.  

    You do know HCQ can be taken every couple weeks for years without an issue? This thread seems to dedicated to your own issues.

    Why do minorities have fewer IDs?

    Because a lot of minorities don’t have much use for them. The most common voter ID is a driver’s license, and minorities are less likely to drive. A 2007 study found that in California, New Mexico, and Washington, whites were more likely to have driver’s licenses than nonwhites. In Orange County, Calif., about 92 percent of white voters had driver’s licenses, compared with only 84 percent of Latino voters and 81 percent of “other” voters. A 2005 study of Wisconsin similarly found that while about 80 percent of white residents had licenses, only about half of African-American and Hispanic residents had licenses.

     

    Quick one there. Republicans can’t make laws directly discriminatory but they can make laws that target minorities. For example, look at the NC gerrymandering case. They didn’t say hey we’re trying to to discriminate against people of color. Instead they used stats to gerrymander districts to disenfranchise black voters while helping Republican white voters.

    You did not answer the question asked because you can't answer it honestly. You instead tried to make a different point with the wrong reason again. Minorities can get an ID as easily as whites, gerrymandering is to help the party in power, and you quoted stats without a source because you know that it is garbage. But to go back to the original point, you are arguing minorites choosing to not get an ID is the equivalent of being denied it, which is where you and I differ greatly.

    You need to change your name to the Fonz because you completely jumped the shark there.

     

    One has statistics to show it disproportionally affects one race over another. The other is well this, which is just terrible.

    Can you show me the stat that shows in the 21st century showing minorities have a harder time getting an ID than whites? Jim Crow was horrendous and an ID is something that literally every adult I know has one. 90% of my 18 year old students have legal IDs.

    Republicans think it’s cool to sell Star of David thinking they’re in a Holocaust.  Capitalism pressures the companies suppliers:

    Clearly ignorant people to use the star of David to make a political point. The point they are trying to make is completely obliterated by the lack of awareness, just like comparing showing ID to Jim Crow laws. The difference few defend the hats while many are dumb enough to believe the Jim Crow.

    If it came out that people were charging more for health insurance for people who owned guns, because they could point to increased accidental death risk...Would that be an attack on gun rights or a company saving money?

     

     

    I said in my first comment that is was wrong what the NFL is doing but if a insurance company was using a behavior that a cost increase was warranted I am fine with it. The NFL is using something that is not able to be controlled so not a good comparison.

    I like the pickup also, but I don't think they are able to win 10/17 with this run game. Also, I disagree about Trubisky being a top 20 QB (at the moment.) I do think he is a very intriguing prospect in the same ballpark as someone like Sam Darnold, both being high draft picks for big city/big market teams and not really put in the ideal position for success. Buffalo's media is definitely a far cry from Chicago's. I want to see how he does with less pressure, better coaching, and a superior offensive cast. I don't think the Bears took enough advantage of Mitch's speed & athleticism. 

     

    With Allen's physical style, there's a good chance he could miss a couple games, unfortunately. Plus, after the mistake of playing so many starters in the final Miami game and a tougher 17 game schedule, they will probably rest their starters the final 1-2 games (depending on the standings obviously.) If Trib can shine in those moments then he might land a decent contract next year. I just wish Buffalo could've signed him for a year or 2 longer so they'd be able to make a return on all the time developing him.

     

    On the plus side, they have a year rental on a player similar to Allen to keep the offense chugging along in case (knock on wood) something were to happen. He's a solid upgrade to Matt Barkley and I like that the Bills are taking initiative this season getting better wherever they can whether it's backup QB or even punter. It's not that Trubisky is necessarily "better" than Barkley, they just wanted someone in a more similar mold. I think there's an advantage to that, but also one to have a backup that plays a completely different game come in and screw up the opp's game plan. 

    I watched a couple of bears games last year and he was not the biggest issue with that offense. I also looked at the list of QBs and I had him as my personal #19, but I would state he is no lower than 24th if you are being reasonable.

    CNN loves to trot out this kind of drivel and compare right wingers to "experts". If the "expert" disagrees then the right winger is wrong. A literal "pandemic response expert"(he was trained by the govt in pandemic response measures) told me last July that Florida would catch and surpass NY in Covid deaths by Thanksgiving because we dared open. Of course he was wrong by a giant margin but he still states he was basically right because the FL went up a little.

    This is in the politics section because I don't want it to shut down immediately. The NFL when dealing with concussions start blacks at a lower intelligence so blacks much show less intelligence to be able to claim injury. This is insane because how to you argue Donovan McNabb is dumber than Incognito or Ozzie Smith is dumber than Ryan leaf? I truly get why these guys are pissed about it.
