Probably a camp body, but after seeing the path the Joe Andreessen took last year, you never know when someone will have a breakthrough.

This is sad. Prayers up for Joe Biden.
There’s also an extremely high likelihood this has been known for a while and made public at a very opportune
time.
Yesterday, I initially thought that it was likely the real reason that BIden dropped out, but if they had announced that then, Harris would have probably won due to sympathy for Biden and being seen as a natural successor instead of a choice that no one wanted.
There are be other reasons why it may not have been announced until stage four, or even a chance that it could be a rare case of a fast spread. Either way, some transparency would be beneficial to everyone.

You know how TDSers would feel if it was Trump diagnosed with cancer.
Anywho, a speedy recovery to the former President.
As a recent poster just proved, some will, but it give the other side a chance to prove that they do not need to stoop to that level.

I figured that a few awful human beings with dark tetrad traits like you would say this but also realize that you are not the norm, even within the left population. I feel sad for you that you have this much hate inside. I hope that others here who do not care for Trump have more class and character than you.

I thought of this and wondered if this was not the real reason that he dropped out, but it is also possible that it may not be the case. There are some less common aggressive forms of prostate cancer that can spread rapidly.

Cancer sucks and I don't wish it on anyone. Here is hoping for a successful treatment and recovery for Biden.

Your “guessing” has been reliably wrong about everything. Carry on.
That is to be expected from that individual poster.
I initially thought that Trump's tariffs were way too much to soon and still have questions, but things are recovering much faster than expected. The left is so desperate that all they can do now is call the deals in the Middle east "taking bribes" and dig in further into how a recession is imminent despite increasing evidence that it may not be. It just takes one person at a time to see through the lies and realize that they have nothing to offer for the party to eventually realize the error of their ways and go towards a more rational moderate ideology.
The problem is the the TBD TDS clique members would rather see the country go into complete chaos and peril than ever admit that Trump did something correctly. Imagine spending months doing nothing on your free time but posting about how something is bad only to be wrong? They would be even more miserable than normal if these tariff plans actually end up working.

Not surprised to the see typical lefty TBD TDS clique being critical about lowering prescription drug prices. If Trump did it, it must be bad. How rude of Trump to interrupt their 40 day 24/7 circle jerk about the tariffs. If Trump banned prescription drug commercials they would probably try to argue how much everyone loves watching them. If prices actually go down, they would probably try to continue to pay higher costs on principle?

Late 2004 against the Browns. Up until the last game of the season against the Steelers backups, that Buffalo squad in the second half was about as on fire as I remember any Bills team being. The Browns game was the best in the bunch with a 37-7 blowout where Buffalo had Cleveland held to negative yards until a few garbage yards at the end got them in the positive. We all know how that season ended, but at that point watching that game, I felt like Buffalo could not only break the drought, but make a deep playoff run.

Cleveland is giving themselves as many kicks at the QB can as they can. I can't fault them for doing it as they clearly understand that without an answer, they are finished before they start. Every team that doesn't have certainty at the position should do the same thing.
I can see why Cleveland is doing this. I wish that Buffalo had done this more often during the drought era. As bleak as the QB room looks in Cleveland, it was much worse in some years here. Buffalo would rest their laurels on Tyler Thigpen or Jeff Tuel as competition for a shaky starter for years. When they finally did something similar to what Cleveland is doing in 2015 with EJ Manual, Tyrod Taylor and Matt Cassel, they ending up improving their situation from past year by discovering Tyrod who was the best that we had in awhile before Allen came around.

I like this as a low key signing. Moore showed flashes in his first year with the Jets and was productive a couple of years ago in Cleveland when Flacco was at QB. It would be interesting to see what he can do with an offense that doesn't have a dumpster fire situation at quarterback.

Ah, the straw man argument is not dead. Did I say or imply that Coleman is beyond all hope or that not picking Royals means an early playoff exit for the Bills? If you want to respond, respond to the points I made, not to fictions. Again, I'm saying Royals would have been a more valuable pick than Walker because Allen can't do it alone; meanwhile, they're stacked at DT. Do you disagree?
Yes.

Ongoing conversation in another thread, but I'll just agree with those who are bewildered by Beane's lack of urgency on wide receivers. Mahomes has Rice, Hollywood Brown, Worthy, and now Royals. Burrow has two studs in Chase and Higgins. Hurts has DeVonta and AJ Brown. Allen? Shakir, who has never had a 1000 yard season, Coleman, a slow possession receiver who wasn't even catching jump balls late last year, Palmer, who is supposed to be the second coming of Jerry Rice but who the receiver-starved Chargers happily let go, Samuels, who we keep making excuses for, and a bunch of practice squad level players. Color me underwhelmed.
Meanwhile, he continues to dump--DUMP--resources into the defensive line. Lovely to have, what, four big investments in the DT position, but at the expense of mediocrity at another key position? Maybe he's planning to trade for Pickens or someone. But I doubt it. As others have said, he's probably thinking, "Hey, Allen and the running game did it all last year, so let's assume they'll be able to do the same again this year. What could go wrong?"
Let's watch Jalen Royals, whom he could have picked instead of Walker. I really, really hope I'm wrong, but I have a feeling it's not going to be pretty.
A First round pick from last year who was doing okay until he got injured is already beyond hope, but a 4th rd pick who has yet to see an NFL field is the difference between the Super Bowl and another early exit?

A, I do not know enough about the players to criticize or praise them, but the positions filled and the types of players selected to fill them were logically sound. There are some valid arguments about how we could have selected WR, but I feel a lot better about Samuel, Coleman and Palmer that I did about our CB and Defensive line depth before today.

Taking what was thought to be a top 5 pick in round 5 is a good risk for Cleveland.
This is unprecedented to have someone projected that high fall that far down so quickly. The closest parallel that I could think of was Maurice Clarett about 20 years ago and that was for a more concrete reason.

Ah, that didn't take long. I knew we'd see some waterworks the minute the pick was announced.
I always love learning every draft day how the difference between a Super Bowl run and fading into obscurity is solely dependent on which person that everyone already passed over three or more times is selected. Last year, it was because we didn't draft Tony Franklin in round 4.

It remains to be seen how these players work out, but i am glad to see positions of need being filled. Getting someone with high upside like Walker in the 4th is something that I am on board with.

I’d take him as Mitch’s backup with that 7th rounder we got tonight
Honesty with a late round pick, why not? You can develop him for a couple of years and trade him down the road.

Seven years later from the original post, and democrat politics have gotten worse. Typical online arguing with Dems in 2025.
Normal poster: I prefer tart tasting apples to sweeter tasting ones
Karen Dunning-Kruger: I don’t like tart apples, what are you an idiot?
Normal poster: No, I just prefer the taste
Karen Dunning-Kruger: But it says here that more people prefer oranges, what the hell is your problem?
Normal Poster: I thought we were talking about apples
Karen Dunning-Kruger: Don’t change the subject, oranges with thicker rinds are sweeter!
Normal Poster: What does that have to do with this?
Karen Dunning-Kruger: Are you a botanist? How dare you question scientific research!
Normal Poster: I don’t see what this has to do with apples
Karen Dunning-Kruger: Stop gaslighting me!

If Cleveland gets Sanders anyway and the extra picks, they got over huge on this trade.

I would rather see the NFL overhaul their officiating and stop running an obnoxious amount of gambling app ads. Regardless of how much tampering if any is actually going on in the games, those two things combined are a bad look and leave it wide open for people to question them. As far as expanding the playoffs, I haven't seen enough competitiveness from the 7th seeds in the playoffs to make me think that adding an 8th or 9th team would enhance the experience.

I noticed that a large portion of the Climate change narrative faded after they tried to blame the Maui fires on it two years ago and it blew up in their face. Shortly before that, Canadian wildfires covering most of the northeast in smoke were blamed on climate change but we later found out that Canada was grossly undermanned to fight it and allegedly that Trudeau had instructed his firefighters not to battle the fire. In early 2020 before COVID the Australian wildfires pitched as "Indisputable proof of climate change" ended up being at least partially due to arsonists.
Not only does this look bad, but it resulted in half or more of the population wanted nothing to do with environmental conservation at all. That is a shame because there are numerous issues with pollution and we should all do our part. If climate change is real and human caused, no one wants anything to do with the current preventative plans because all they saw was virtue signaling, hypocrisy and a giant scheme to give China massive profits.
My personal take is that I will take the climate change threat seriously when celebrities and politicians are no longer allowed to fly private jets.

Simple. SCOTUS said bring him back. Trump is refusing. That is authoritarianism.
Beyond that, I believe in the natural rights of all human beings. Trump single handedly sending people to death camps violates this.
Caring about human rights means that your intentions are at least good. Human rights does not mean absence of consequences. For example, I would have an inherent right to not be assaulted by you, but if I was to break into your house, that changes that and you have a right to defend yourself in that scenario. This person broke the law by coming here and that at the very least beating his wife and driving without a license and likely but allegedly at this point was in MS-13. Any other county would deport someone who entered illegally and committed crimes. Why is the US doing that a sudden violation of human rights? His rights do not allow him a free pass to violate the rights of others.
Edit: Since progressives sometimes have trouble comprehending figurative vs literal when reading, let me add that the breaking in to your house sentence was meant as an analogy and not a literal threat.

My hot take is that if Trent Edwards had not been obliterated by that cheap shot in the Cardinals game, that he may have become a decent to above average game manager quarterback for a few years. He was never the same after that.

NFL players to the Olympics in Flag Football?
in The Stadium Wall
Posted · Edited by dgrochester55
Agreed. Peterman's reaction time and throwing style made him too prone to interceptions to be effective in the NFL, but he was productive in college and has looked decent in preseason garbage time. Succeeding in Olympic flag football against rosters with little or no NFL talent is something he could easily do. The NFL could roll out practice squad players and preseason cuts and still win a gold.
