Thanks Chef! I’m having a blast. I now get to do what I want to do and only when I want do it. May be heading out your way for the weekend. A few days in the pool sounds great! 😎

So many people (fans) grade a player on what they see during the games, but the coaches see these guys in meetings, practice, and the locker room. I’m guessing Howard hasn’t impressed anyone in any of those off field venues.

I couldn’t agree more, but my comment was regarding whether a punter (wealthy or not) would be interested in spending the Fall months in Western New York if it meant a decent shot at bringing home a Ring in February. I’m guessing that any punter would. It’s not playing running back or offensive line.

Sure! That’s exactly what the nuclear codes look like. They’re on a piece of paper marked Top Secret just like in a Mel Brooks spy movie.

The lure of a super bowl ring is like the proverbial siren’s song.

Chef…please. Every solution everyone proposes causes you to answer with the same thing….’so what’s your solution’. If you believe you know the answer just tell us already!!!! (By the way, your linked article pretty much says what everyone on here, including myself, have already been saying.)

And in the meantime he’s going to work at the local car wash? It’ll be interesting to see how long the love for his ‘family’ lasts. 😉

What is anything worth? Answer: What people are willing to pay for it. Which is why paying off these loans is such a ridiculous idea. All it will do is artificially raise the price of what people are “willing to pay”….because in fact THEY aren’t paying. Think I’m wrong? I dare you to go to any conference trade show and watch the people stroll the convention floor aisles scooping up swag items from each and every booth they pass. Within the hour they’ll have a tote bag filled to the brim. But, 99% of those people will leave that full bag in the hotel room before they leave for home. Why? Because within less than a day they’ve realized it’s all a bunch of free nonsense that isn’t worth hauling around.

Have we gotten to the small incursion yet? Heck it’s only been SIX MONTHS!

Huh? What a stupid comment by the President! January 6th was NOT about law enforcement. Not even close. Nice try Uncle Joe.

So when a Republican President asked questions about ACTUAL corruption surrounding his potential Democratic opponent that was impeachable. But when a Democrat President raids the home of his Republican opponent on the grounds of POSSIBLE future corruption …that’s considered what again?

Well you certainly don’t fix it by forgiving loans. Maybe, just maybe, everyone doesn’t need to go to college! Maybe you can do the course work for your major in three years and forget about the waste of time electives designed to keep professors employed. How about those suggestions?

What? Oh come on! That could literally be your response to anything then. I have no idea where you’re coming from on this topic. Forgiving these loans is one the worst ideas I’ve heard in a long time…and there have been some really really bad suggestions from our friends in Washington over the years.

Nope I pay my taxes also… a ton of them. But would I rather the government send me the $10,000 that they’re selectively choosing to give as a Christmas present to the parents that told their kids to go get a loan? Yes, I’d rather have the money back.

Yikes….We’ll all wait while you catch up on the events of the last few years.

Chef, nobody’s arguing against this on the fiscal policy you seem to be focused on. The argument is on the fairness policy. Does this money matter to the government? No. Does it matter to the individual taxpayer? Yes.

You mean like wiping secret sauce on them with a cloth? Sorry, you walked right into that one. 😉

You’ve only scratched the surface of the people who should be livid. How about those that paid off their debt? How about those who paid for their college in full? How about those who chose not to go to college because of the cost? And contrary to your assessment, how about those who’s taxes either have or will pay for this? (It is NOT Monopoly money.)

What was he doing with them? Answer: Apparently nothing. You’ve clearly made this guy into a boogy man under your bed. This is nothing more than politically motivated theater.

This does nothing to make FUTURE college more affordable. In fact, it will have the exact opposite effect. These loans were already taken and the college courses were already consumed and/or wasted.

There are only 32 starting punters in the entire NFL. There have to be more than double that number that came out of college just a few months ago. I refuse to believe that there aren’t more than a few who could do an adequate job. The Bills are not going to be relying on their punter to get them to the super bowl.

Until you’ve seen the documents you and I literally have no idea.

You guys are going down rabbit hole of classified or unclassified. The law professor I saw on TV last night stated that that isn’t even in the statute. The real question is whether the documents in fact belong to the government, which he stated….they do. If that’s indeed the case then I urge everyone to rewatch the Seinfeld episode where Mr Bookman is called in to retrieve the library book from when Jerry was back in Junior High. Once again, for those who haven’t been following along, this is a “show (story) about nothing”!

Speaking as someone who actually lives in California, I can tell you that this place is almost unrecognizable these days. The state has become a aesthetic dump. If you can look through the trash, graffiti and homeless encampments you can just barely make out the natural beauty that attracted so many to come here….including myself many decades ago. If you haven’t visited lately I guarantee you’ll be shocked. Now, with regards to electric vehicles I have to say the mandate is probably the only way to get to where they want to go. Unfortunately it’s another virtue signal filled gesture that will do little to help the planet while having adverse consequences to the overall quality of life. But I guess that’s the goal. The Church of Climate Change requires sacrifices be made to the Earth God.

As I’ve said, this is a flat out stupid, gratuitous and patently unfair idea. What they really want is to extend public education to be K14. This is NOT the way to do it.
