  1. ...Frazier has seemingly corrected their "week to week bi-polarisms" versus the run....never knew which run D would show up....Pettine was the same..."Stone Wall vs Wikileaks"...three 200 yd efforts last year are hopefully a thing of the past....sure Leslie did not fare well in his HC stiint....but I sure as hell hope he is NOT a demeaning "Rooney Rule" interview for any HC openings...regardless of skin color, the man deserves FAR better......keep 'em in OUR fold.......he is valued PERIOD....sad to remember the TBD posting "experts" who deemed his hire as, "....meh.....nothing but a glorified DB Coach..."...I'm certain they'll be along shortly with the mea culpas(COUGH".......SMH..............

  5. ...so why is it that so many cannot accept your eloquent assessment here?....how come?.......how many past administrations fraudulently talked the "tough talk" and did NOTHING?......how many candidates purported to be a "Washington outsider" who would clean up the mess if elected, only to be "Washington INSIDERS"?.... as if they would bite the hand that feeds 'em and turn the "good 'ol boyz network" upside down....so now we have one who has pissed off the progressives even more who hate us as the "world's bullies".....what the hell was O-Blah-Blah-Blah's "world apology tour" all about then?....to borrow Nicholson's line from "A few Good Men", "you (THEY) can't handle the TRUTH"...SMH.._
  6. ...hopefully "trap game" is NO LONGER part of the vocabulary......and eliminating 3rd quarter start flatness is a "work in progress"....will share a true story with no link of BS...ain't my style....it was the game before the London trip...Pegula was watching Sportscenter after a Bflo "L" and where two or three teams started backup QB's who led their clubs to victories....Wrecks & Roman were walking by TP's office and he called them in.....wanting to know "why the hell can't our team do this"?.....they had no answers.....play 60 minutes regardless of the opponent.......
  7. ...I think you're being too DAMN polite........this clown could be Tib's first cousin......SMH........
  8. ....for how long and at what cost do we CONTINUE to be the global "Mother Protector"?.......how many BILLIONS in foreign aid have been usurped by corrupt governments?.....better yet, here we are trying to force feed the "world's greatest democracy" which Trump has woefully exposed as potentially and equally corrupt?.....the UN is THE biggest and most farcical (DIS)organization on the planet......bigger NYC squatters than SF's homeless......have no problem with him reigning in the fiscal drain.......

  12. ....agree......and if something happened injury wise to any of them, I'd bet "McBeane & Company" already have a few on speed dial.....these guys shop 24/7/365 IMO.....
  13. ....it's the Benjamin model...........
  14. XFL salaries revealed: Leaked memo details player pay for new league By Thomas BarrabiFOXBusiness The average XFL player won’t be in for a major payday when play begins in February 2020, according to a report on Friday. League executives informed agents that XFL players will earn an average salary of $55,000, according to a memo obtained by Pro Football Talk. The total purportedly includes base pay, and bonuses for active roster status and victories for players under contract from Dec. 4, when players become full-time XFL employees, through the end of the season on May 31, 2020. https://www.foxbusiness.com/sports/xfl-salaries-player-pay-2020 NFL HOFer Terrell Owens accepts XFL Draft invite Jesse Reed, Sportsnaut 13 hrs ago Terrell Owens is apparently not done with football, after all, despite having already been inducted into the NFL Hall of Fame. The legendary receiver has accepted an invite to be a part of the inaugural XFL Draft, which takes place on Oct. 15, the league announced on Friday. Owens last played in the NFL during the 2010 season as a member of the Cincinnati Bengals. He last played professionally during the 2012 Indoor Football League season as a member of the Allen Wranglers. During his legendary 16-season NFL career, Owens caught 1,078 passes for 15,934 yards and 153 touchdowns. Needless to say, if he does in fact play for the XFL in 2020, it would be a major draw for the upstart league. https://www.msn.com/en-us/sports/nfl/nfl-hofer-terrell-owens-accepts-xfl-draft-invite/ar-AAIE80e?li=BBnba9I
  15. ....he is the epitome of a "team and community first" kid.......how sad.........
  16. ...I'm on board and agree with you bro....when you look at referee penalty stats, the HUGE dichotomy IMO comes from the allowable gray area interpretation of the rules...it breeds rampant inconsistency from one referee to the next......so does a team need to add "assigned referee tendencies" to their weekly game plan?......BS IMO.....
  17. ....is there really a simple recipe to beat the Pats?.......how many years now has Brady's grave been dug with shovels ready?......18 consecutive AFC titles?.....11 AFC championships....6 SB's......and you think "running on them" is THE new and simple recipe?.....forgot Brady is 31-3 vs Bflo.......try harder IMO....BB is the master....
  18. ...so we can't talk about missing Mike Stratton then?.......
  19. ...make them train annually like players do......see what I said above......or are they exempt because they're infallible and have Pope Riveron giving him his "blessing"?.....despite the CONTINUAL decline, do you think the NFL gives a rat's azz as long as absurd TV revenues and corporate dollars feed the "cash cow"?......um....er...ok....right.....YAWN....
  20. .....reputable contractor BUT also a reputable customer in you offering......we are strictly commercial contractors, but never nickle and dime our valued customers.....NUMEROUS instances where we take care of something at no charge.....we're celebrating our 50th year in business come 2020 and are the 2nd largest in our trade for Roch-Cha-Cha....operating in four states.......
  21. ....drink Bourbon, watch the Weather Channel as well as a can of Sherwin Williams ceiling white dry sittin' in my rocking chair................
  22. Mahomes was an draft enigma.....plenty were in favor of drafting him because of his collegiate performance(s)......but there were plenty who said "an Air Raid QB NEVER makes it in the NFL" as if he was from a leper colony.....so his draft journey began......Andy gambles and he sits behind Smith for a year.....and in year 2 he lights the world "on fire", and good for him.....wasn't Mariota from a similar spread with differing nuances?....and he has worked out how?......so in year 2, Mahomes defied most odds....as did the 6th round Brady...OR....the 3rd round Montana....yet Whaley FAILED for blowing the Mahomes pick.....um right......needed Windex for his crystal ball I suppose....a few bumps 'n bruises in year 3?...as expected as opposing DC's get acclimated to his game...but he is still exciting to watch IMO.......
  23. ...doesn't California predominate with Asian carp?.....Maxine?......Schifty?.........Feinstein?...Grusome Newsome?.......Moonbeam Jerry?.....cadre of bottom feeders??.........
  24. ...good advice John...they may have other complaints about the contractor....we are commercial electrical contractors......in most cases, we issue a proposed change order requiring customer signature BEFORE work can commence....if the work needs to be done immediately while the proposed change order is being prepared, we will operate on a verbal to proceed BUT all work tickets are to be signed DAILY as an acknowledgment.....lawsuit versus ADT back in the '90's: all unsigned work tickets relative the change orders were thrown out by the Court....all SIGNED work tickets were allowed....ADT claimed their field rep was unauthorized to sign but the Court said "that's your problem".....here are some suggestions for residential work: (1) get EVERYTHING in writing, especially an explicit "scope of work" (2) make sure there is a clause regarding change orders, specifically that a written proposal is necessary before the work commences and must be signed by BOTH parties(gives you time to examine the original scope to see if the proposed change is outside the original scope) (3) be leery of a contractor who wants a substantial down payment "up front"; it indicates their financial wherewithal and ability to carry a job ..he does not have credit with material suppliers which is an instant red flag; (3) make sure your contract includes a "retainage clause", albeit 5% or 10% which you can hold in abeyance for any "punch list items" that need to be completed; (4) always, ALWAYS request a Certificate of Insurance before signing ANY initial contract; if it is not provided, chances are it has lapsed or contractor is uninsured; contractor insurance gives you some legal recourse for a claim if necessary......hope this helps all.........
