  1. http://fortune.com/2019/02/14/amazon-doesnt-pay-federal-taxes-2019/ I know many of you would rather focus with bloodthirsty zeal on hoards of so-called rapists coming over the border to find white women, but I thought I'd post an actual, real problem that the demagogues don't want us to focus on. What do we think about it? Amazon's tax strategies most surely are fully legal - and is that a problem? I'm surprised (I guess, actually I'm not surprised) that the "drain the swamp" crowd isn't more focused on this kind of issue. I'm not sure where I fall on it - I cannot stand progressive politics that chase businesses out of communities that need them (see, e.g.., Amazon in Long Island City and Buffalo from 1980-2015), but it also seems galling that tax laws (and loopholes) allow the biggest earners (corporate and individual) to shirk the obligations the rest of us face. Thoughts?
  2. So by extension you'd view the Quentin Nelson pick as a mistake by the Colts?
  3. He has his work cut out for him - the pro personnel acquisitions under the Beane regime have been mediocre-to-terrible. They've done much better in college scouting. The next good offensive FA they sign will be the first.
  4. Huh? By your logic, a player who chooses to sign with a team in FA has less loyalty to that team than a player who is traded to that team against his will???
  5. Whatever. The Browns are actually trying to WIN GAMES. Beane should focus on adding football players who can help the team win games. I stand by my view that Beane will be out of a job come January 2020.
  6. Problem seems to be mental.
  7. Yeah it's Benoit not Breer - Benoit is pretty good at breaking down film. Breer is plugged into the league for news, etc. Brandt offers excellent salary cap and front office-related content due to his time in the Packers organization. MMQB is a great site.
  8. Social media is a curse.
  9. So the Chargers were forced to settle for Derwin James, who as a rookie was probably the best safety in football....
  10. You keep doing this - why?
  11. you're Also, Goff floated that first pass to Cooks in the endzone, giving McCourty time to cover ground and break up the play. Big miss. Just make the plays that are there to be made and you can win games against anyone, including the Pats.
  12. Gilmore was running the Rams' routes last night, which is a testament to his film study and preparation (an overlooked aspect of his game when he was in Buffalo).
  13. So weird. To me this game came down to the fact that the Rams are a new team with a fickle fanbase that didn't really travel for the game. The Patriots' fans were there in droves and they were loud - it felt like a Patriots home game. When the Rams were on offense it was loud, and it definitely impacted their ability to execute. Couple that with the fact that they're younger and perhaps less mentally tough (specifically, players like Goff and Gurley) and the result was not surprising.
  14. Sometimes I wonder if Bills fans get exactly what they deserve.
  15. They are going all in for the first pick in 2020.
  16. The Bengals will take this guy in the second round and he'll be a wrecking ball for them like Geno Atkins.
  17. He's another Ereck Flowers. Soft.
  18. I actually bumped into him on the street in Tampa last weekend and he seemed very nice!
  19. Rex just didn't want to work - he convinced the Pegulas to let him hire the biggest coaching staff in the league so that he wouldn't have to do the grinding himself. Should've been obvious at that point.
