Which is weird, because he built himself into a superstar QB by being the "chip on the shoulder" style guy. Short, average build, not super fast, and a guy who was greatly overlooked given his college production. Then lasted until the 3rd round and beat out the next "superstar" QB in Matt Flynn. He has completely changed since entering the league, and lost his edge and motivation in the process it seems.

I follow Benjamin Allbright, he is a Broncos reporter and is pretty straight forward. He said earlier in the season that Elway is rarely even at the facility and has little to no influence on the day to day decisions. Several others have reported the same.

Elway isn't part of the front office anymore.

Blazin Burgers is just 1 location. They had 2 for a couple years but the 2nd location was tiny and apparently they couldn't keep workers. I've never tried Swenson's, though it is fairly local. About a half hour drive for me.

Local place here in Ohio called Blazin Burgers. They have one called the Elvis Burger that is on the menu, but only in the restaurant on a marker board "Specials" kind of thing. Typical burger, but has peanut butter and fried bananas on it with some other things. Sounds odd, and we went there a dozen times over the years before I worked up the guts to try it, but it's amazing. They also have a few other burgers that I really enjoy.

That was about as cut and dry a call you could get.

The "You" at the end of my previous post was more of a general "you" than about you personally. And to the rest of your post, of course the pedophiles and MAPs or whatever else they want to be called want to be accepted. They want it to eventually be non criminal, so of course they are trying to lump themselves into other groups that are currently more accepted. So I should clarify. The only people that want pedophiles in the LGBTQ community are pedophiles, and people who are against LGBTQ. Everyone may have an opinion of harm to others, but sexual assault of a minor is a pretty widely accepted version of harm. No one in any community should be ok with that, and in general people are not. As far as the rest of "The Left" garbage you posted, I'm not going down that road. "The Left" and "The Right" are the same damn thing. It's as you described, but somehow people don't see it on the larger scale, only on the "opposite" side of themselves. It is only ever "Them" that causes the problems.

I've run into this a lot lately. OSU fans are 100% sure that they have a better chance against Georgia. Like, what has the last 2 seasons shows that says OSU is better than Michigan? UGA would be favorites against anyone. What gives OSU a better chance in your mind? Also, whereabouts in eastern OH?

No, it doesn't make sense at all. Should all people with any kind of mental illness be lumped in with psychopathic murderers? That is the reason pedophiles are different. They actively hurt other people, and children at that. There is no consent involved. Even if you don't agree with gay/bi/trans whatever, you are not forced to accept it. You can actively choose to not deal with people whom you disagree with for whatever reason. You can choose to avoid certain people/places/businesses/event, etc if those things promote something you don't like. Again, the only people wanting to lump pedophiles in with the LGBTQ community are people who are against the LGBTQ community. It's insane. I am not even some big supporter of LGBTQ, I just feel like people can make their own decisions and should be free to live their life however makes them happy, as long as they don't harm others while doing that. They should have the same rights as anyone else. Just because you want minority groups to have acceptance doesn't mean that ALL groups should have acceptance. Not ones that actively hurt others.

How is it so hard to understand that the LGBTQ community doesn't support pedophilia? You and 29 keep just stating it like inviting a neighbor to the Saturday barbecue. Just because you invite your 6 closest neighbors doesn't mean you invite the pedophile neighbor too. I do not know one group that is in the LGBTQ community that in any way shape or form supports pedophilia besides the few fringe groups here and there. The only people wanting to include pedophiles in that community are people already against that community.

Right, EXTREMISTS. I can even agree with that. Extremists won't stop. But your original comment said "The entire lgbtqia+ movement is about supporting a minority of people, and every time society says… ok fine it’s cool a letter gets added to what needs to be normalized. Sexualization of minors is certainly next on the roadmap." That is why I said you keep moving the goalposts. You went from "The entire movement" to extremists and then are still arguing your point. The LGBTQ movement does NOT support pedophilia. A few EXTREMIST groups that want to incorporate themselves into the movement do, such as "MAPS", but they are disgusting and not accepted by the LGBTQ groups. Again, this whole thing is simple. LGBTQ is about accepting and consenting adults. Any of the other stuff with children is not the same at all because children cannot consent to sexual activities. I am all for keeping an eye on the fringe psychos, but it bothers me when people try to lump them in with the everyday normal functioning members of our society. I'll agree that it wasn't a good trade. I think Griner's imprisonment was a sham by Russia, but you don't release a know terrorist back out into the world over it. What are your thoughts on the 5,000 Taliban released by Trump?

Right, I tend to disagree with children making any life changing decisions when they are CHILDREN. The same as the with the pedophile situation. I do not agree with any law that would institute requirements of doctors, and I honestly disagree with performing any such actions while the child is under age. As an adult, people can do what they want. But again, the original discussion was that LGBTQ was trying to incorporate pedophiles, and when the discussion shifted to show that by in large that isn't the case, now you keep moving the goalposts. I find the whole gender being "fluid" situation very odd and I honestly don't understand it, but if that person is an adult, and wants to be "gendered" as something not of which they were born, more power to them, but they have to live with the consequences that come with it. I would never attack or discriminate in the sense of their rights, but I honestly probably wouldn't make that person a large part of my personal life either.

Let's even say that's true. That doesn't mean people are going to normalize hurting kids. For whatever reason, people always jump to the "they're going to want to legalize sex with kids and animals" are the 2 I always see, but it's always some made up scenario from people who disagree with LGBTQ, and not anyone that has information to back it up. Just because that is somehow your next "logical" step does not mean that would be the next logical step for the people you are talking about.

You can't just say " the next thing on the roadmap" anytime you want. You can literally say that about anything under the sun because it hasn't happened yet. The next step in protecting QBs in the NFL is putting them in pink tutus on the field. See how that works? There will be a very, very tiny portion of the population who does want acceptance for the sexualization of minors, and it won't be accepted, and rightfully so. Every single one of the other portions of the LGBTQ groups is between consenting adults. THAT is the difference. Sexual activity between adults is fine, and should be fine, however the relation comes to be. The reason pedophilia is NOT the same is because children cannot, and should not be able to consent to sexual activities. Again, most pedophiles AREN'T part of the LGBTQ movement. They are heterosexual in their adult relationships.

I'm not sure I agree with this. Nebraska hasn't been truly great since option football was a thing. They have been ranked in the top 10 for 4 weeks in the last 12 years. They have a history, but the landscape of college football has changed a great deal since then. If they make the right coaching hires they can obviously rebound, but I don't think it's sure thing in saying they will bounce back.

Travis Hunter was the first 5 star EVER to go to a school the size of JSU as a recruit. Now, some have transferred, but you can't deny that Sanders can recruit with the best of them, even with a huge disadvantage in regards to the school he was at. Also, Alabama has 22 5 AND 4 star recruit, not 22 5 stars. There is a much smaller pool of 5 star recruits every year. For 2022, there were 34 5 star players. There were 332 4 star players. Still amazing that they had that many, and the history of Alabama's winning and producing NFL players sells itself.

Yes, and so did Don Brown when he was at Michigan. Except he got burned constantly when they played good, fast teams. Knowles is a very good DC, no doubt. But a lot of star athletes on OSU's defense underperformed some, especially on the DL and in the secondary.

Seeing as how Trump is trying to run for President again, it isn't in the past at this point.

Knowles is over aggressive, so if his aggression fails, they give up huge plays. Michigan was great on defense too with Don Brown until good teams could capitalize on their aggressive style to gash them. Knowles doesn't impress me much at all.

I'm not a huge fan of the portal either, but if coaches can lie to these players to get them signed, and then leave, then players should have the same chance. In my opinion you have to fix both before you can just fix the players.

Most college rosters are 100-120+. They'll be fine fielding a team.

I agree no one should get a pass, but that's exactly what OSU got. It's not that big of a deal because they're probably a lot better than USC anyway, but it's just the principle of it. And like you said, they are correcting it next year anyway with the 12 teams.

The main issue I have is OSU is essentially rewarded for NOT making their conference championship. And I understand this isn't the first year it's happened. But teams shouldn't be rewarded for sitting at home.

So he's accepting the Cincinnati job tomorrow? 😁

No. No they will not. I am sure there are a few fringe people fighting for that, but there are no major LGBTQ groups fighting to include pedophiles. Just because people (mostly "conservatives") keep repeating the "What's next, pedophiles/animals/etc?" arguments doesn't mean that it is actually happening.
