Are there any high risk players worth a gamble?
Doc Brown replied to HOUSE's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Drew Brees (shoulder), Peyton Manning (neck), Vick in Philly (something about dogs), Moss in New England (not a self motivator), Richie here (bullying concerns turning into mental concerns). I suspect there's a much higher bust rate though. -
Except a lot of 2nd choice voters when polled went from Biden to Bernie, Warren to Klobachar, Biden to Buttigieg, Warren to Sanders, etc... Ideology plays a role but there's other factors that make up people's minds (what candidate they like better on a personal level, who they think can best beat Trump, etc...). It's really just fruitless to try and predict right now and will be interesting to see how it turns out.

It would've been way more disastrous if he lost though. He has a solid base of supporters (around 25%) compared to any of the other candidates. I think that was Trump's floor too if I recall correctly early in the 2016 primaries and there was talk about the plurarlity of Cruz, Rubio, and Kasich beating Trump but none of them dropped out until it was too late. You may have a similar situation here.

Voting by income levels. Not surprising.

It's interesting two of the three that declined the quickest did so after some unfair attacks in the debate. Harris took an swipe at Biden in the debates implying he was racist. Voters didn't like it. Warren took a swipe at Sanders in the debate implying he was sexist. Voters didn't like it. I'm going with people really hated Hillary. It's impossible to tell who will pick up which candidates vote share when they drop out if 2016 taught us anything.

Shoot. My money was on Weld.

Democratic 2020 Presidential Primary Thread
Doc Brown replied to snafu's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
LOL. I appreciate your candor. The baby boomers millenial fight is always funny to me because we're the one's that raised them. The 2008 crash, the diluted value of a four year degree, and the rise of home costs are some of the reasons millenials gravitate towards Bernie. Basically, economic insecurity. Also, young people in general are naturally more idealistic. Calling for a revolution instead of gradual change is an easier sell. -
Trump's Assault On Health Care
Doc Brown replied to Tiberius's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
Yeah. He's a Republican. -
Jerry Jones is negotiating through the press and it doesn't surprise me because he's a snake. Create a persona of a greedy QB and hope he succumbs to public pressure to sign a team friendly deal. How much of that contract is guaranteed? As far as Mahomes goes, I'm going to guess 44 million a year for five years because he has a top notch agent. Maybe 165 million or so guaranteed.

Democratic 2020 Presidential Primary Thread
Doc Brown replied to snafu's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
You may be right but Bernie pry has the best chance out of any of these candidates to win these states. There's a populist, pro worker, anti interventionist rhetoric he espouses that the other candidates besides Trump can't match. A $15 national minimum wage and taxing the rich also polls well which is a difference from Trump. If Sanders win I think Warren will be the VP pick despite their recent dispute as he's already apparently inquired about whether she can be VP and treasury secretary at the same time. -
XFL Opening Weekend, Matchups and where to watch.
Doc Brown replied to MAJBobby's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I don't know. We'd have Watson and AJ Brown right now if they decided to call and ask for my advice. Unfortunately, we'd have Rosen if they called me a couple years ago. -

I remember wanting the Bills to draft Aaron Murray as a backup to EJ. Glad I'm not making those decisions. -

History says no. There's a post Superbowl depression disorder that usually disappears within a couple of weeks that the AFL took advantage of in the early 2000's to get a contract with NBC. Maybe this league will beat the odds though. -

They're pinning all their long term hopes on a lucrative TV contract. -

Let's see how it does over the next few weeks. The AAF ratings were great the first weekend and then dropped off quickly. I'd love to see elite college players join the league and make some money they can't at college. Come on Trevor Lawrence and Justin Fields. Be the pioneers. -

If Beane does his job Duke will be an afterthought by the time September rolls around. Duke should've been converted to a TE in college like Jordan Reed was. -

Pry better than an openly gay male. I'll give you +169. -

Doc Brown replied to snafu's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
Not for another 10 years minimum as the country becomes more secular. Only one state has an openly male gay governor and he was just elected in Colorado. If I made the political betting lines on who'd be president first. A woman or a gay male. I'd put woman at -400 and openly gay male at +250. -
Should Buffalo Trade for Alshon Jeffrey
Doc Brown replied to Dkollidas's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Fun article. The one trade that caught my eye is the Ravens sending a 1st and a 3rd for Stephon Diggs with the premise that the Vikings need to clear cap space. IF Diggs would be willing to come here (maybe sweeten his contract) I'd pull the trigger on that. He's a proven commodity in his prime.
