  1. You could look your post from a very positive point of view, that this country is built on freedom and self-expression and that any "protest" is a strong indication of a healthy, free democracy; and their actions can be viewed as someone who believes the country could indeed be even better. In fact, you may even ask yourself, if they feel so strongly then perhaps we should listen to what they have to say. You don't have to ultimately agree, but you should feel comfort in their ability to say it. It's amazing when I hear folks spout on national TV that they are being silenced and at the same time shouting down folks for expressing their concern about a public policy issue. See the the inverse of this: Russia, Iran, China and the list sadly goes on.
  2. So . . . women don't deserve equal pay?
  3. When was the last time ANY players in the NFL sat for the preseason? It's not hard to extrapolate the meaning.
  4. If you know anything about football, I wouldn't have to "articulate" that I meant the regular season. Please tell us when a player sat for the training camp and preseason? It's absurd.
  5. Jesus Dude. During the friggin regular season.
  6. I never said, "sit him just to make a point." Sit Elam until the coaches believe he is the best player for the job. Too many fans seem to think it's clear that Elam should have the job by now, which is not at all clear to the coaches. Elam has occasionally played very well, but he's not at all consistent and may need to demonstrate he can be trusted. He may get there by Week 1, but it's not at all a sure thing.
  7. If Elam is not the best player at CB2, he should sit until he figures it out. Elam doesn't deserve the job any more than Jackson and Benford.
  8. Same fans if Milano gets injured: "This team is so short-sighted, they don't have a decent player to fill in!!!!!"
  9. Selecting a backup WLB is not a waste. Fan expectation levels can be so out-of-whack.
  10. IMO, a lot of CT pizza is excellent. But, like everywhere, there are quite a few crap places, too A personal favorite is Frank Pepe's, which is now a chain, but it's always been good.
  11. If the line up is the same players and strategy, Sweden will smoke the USA. Alex Morgan has done a lot for the USA, but now her most significant contribution would be to sit on the bench. She looks very slow, and opposing teams are not scared of her anymore. The defense is pretty solid, but it may be time to give the young, quick offensive players a chance. I'd rather go out in a blaze of glory using the new players than to quietly fade away with the older ones.
  12. Pee Wee's Playhouse was a game-changer. "I'm a loner Dottie. A rebel"
  13. Bad Karma. Delete.
  14. Yup, no doubt it's another massive conspiracy just to conflict with your narrow worldview.
  15. I would have thought you'd go to the source. Only a click away.
  16. "I haven't seen the movie but I'm going to give my opinion anyway." Nolan is a [almost] universally acclaimed as one of the best directors and writers of the past 25 years but please go ahead and offer your thoughts on movies you haven't seen. It appears your thoughtfulness on Nolan is only matched by your critique of Hanks. Like all actors, Hanks doesn't always star in great films, but his performances are usually at the heart of most of the beloved and acclaimed movies of the last 40 years. Just a few: - Splash - Big This run of movies in order from 1992 to 2002: - A League of Their Own - Sleepless in Seattle - Philadelphia - Forrest Gump - Apollo 13 - Toy Story - That Thing You Do (Wrote and Directed) - Saving Private Ryan - You've Got Mail - Toy Story 2 - The Green Mile - Cast Away - Road to Perdition Then later: - Polar Express - Bridge of Spies - Sully - The Post - Greyhound - A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood For TV: - Bosom Buddies - Saturday Night Live - From Earth to the Moon (Writer Director Producer) - Band of Brothers (Writer Director Producer) - Pacific (Producer) - John Adams (Producer) Care to revise your remarks? Rotten Tomatoes - It's at 87% Audience Score, which nearly matches the 90% Critic Score
  17. It was frustrating game because Vietnam barely tried to play in the US end. Vietnam essentially stacked their own end, and rarely counterattacked with numbers. Their strategy was don’t give up a bunch of goals by not really trying to score. If Vietnam sent a real attack the US would have countered with much more space.
  18. Least concerning: Lamar Jackson. All the others can be equally bad, but I'd say Derek Carr. Not because Carr will be "bad" this year, it's because there is little reason to think he will be any better and more likely, will decline, making the remaining three years on his contract that much more painful. I do not believe in Daniel Jones, but Brian Daboll appears to. Plus, he'll have another year under Daboll and additional talent on offense. I'm not sure Giants fans will be happy there will be another three years on the contract, but I don't think they'll be depressed, either. Last, Rodgers. I do not think he'll be anywhere near MVP level again, but he won't be the reason the Jets will continue to be disappointing for the fans. Plus, the team will only have one more year on the contract and time to draft his replacement.
  19. Everything you wrote is speculation based on speculation. It's your "feelings" - nothing is based on fact. Please provide evidence that Diggs "clearly thinks his QB is doing him wrong" or "Now Allen has to force throws his way." Or perhaps you are privy to conversations that Bills reporters have not heard.
  20. Rebuttal: We have no idea what Diggs, Allen et al are thinking.
  21. This is not "breaking" news, it's reporting on comments that may be second or third-hand.
  22. Wow. Some folks seriously underestimate the breadth and depth of media coverage of the Bills. There are not only many full or nearly full-time reporters/analysts, but most are very good in their field. I'd imagine the Bills content creation is unmatched.
  23. See y'all there
  24. I have flown out after a 1:00PM game several times. He should have no problem. I think the biggest problem folks have is the first few miles. The key is using a parking lot to get out fairly quickly, even if it means parking a little further and even taking a more circuitous route. I've had a lot of luck along California Road. Also, quickly leaving the stadium can save a ton of time, especially after a win when folks tend to linger.
  25. Most folks are not happy unless they're miserable.
