Buffalo picked the right Josh
leh-nerd skin-erd replied to Nuncha's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I didn't want Rosen, part of the issue was the history of concussions, and part as a result of his attitude based on some of the things I've read. Seemed sort of arrogant to me, i wondered how that would play out on the field, but had he been our selection that would have been fine. To flip that around a bit, I look forward to watching JA play. His enthusiasm is infectious (to me anyway, i know some posters here got the JA flu shot and dont see it that way), he lays it all on the line and seems to be improving as he goes. His interaction with his teammates seems excellent, he shows great leadership skills and seems to love the game. I wish the other Josh no ill will, and if he turns out to be a gelreat player and this Josh does not, well, sometimes that happens. For now though, JA is the guy. -
Marcus Murphy: dislocated elbow
leh-nerd skin-erd replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
It's odd, after watching the replay, I said to my son..."ah man, I hope it's not am Achilles injury. That was weird.". He looked at me, told me he was going to live with his mother, told me I was a horrible father, and that the only thing worse than speculating in the basement watching the Bills play would be to do it on a message board. I say we saddle up and go get this BBOrton fella. -
Clinton Political Dynasty
leh-nerd skin-erd replied to TakeYouToTasker's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
I'm not a conspiracy guy, but this sentiment is one I can't quite understand. The simple math says something nefarious is most definitely going on, the only real question is who is running the dirty game Some pols are out implying that the sitting president of the US conspired with our adversaries in a calculated, deliberate and coordinated attempt to secure the presidency and in doing so, will fundamentally our nation. Some other pols are saying that forces within a/the political cartel and department of justice conspired in a calculated, deliberate and coordinated attempt to ensure the defeat of one candidate, in favor of another by spreading false, defamatory and misleading information about her opponent. I do agree that it's entirely possible that Mueller has something on Trump, but it seems to me the benchmark is pretty low when it comes what might be considered something. I think when the mandate is basically "Look everywhere, at everything, ever..and don't be afraid to threaten some people with life in prison, toss a few in solitary, and maybe cut them a deal if they can give you anything" it's easy to assume someone will get got and someone always offers something. How they scoot all over the world and lockdown that whole carbon neutral game is impressive. -
A Revolt If Trump Is Impeached?
leh-nerd skin-erd replied to Trump_is_Mentally_fit's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
We have people spouting that popular vote nonsense, blissfully ignorant that they would get a zero.zerozero in middle school civics class for drawing that particular line in the sand. I'm never sure if it's the school system failing them, or if they were playing pokeman with a classmate the year all tha stuff was taught. -
A Revolt If Trump Is Impeached?
leh-nerd skin-erd replied to Trump_is_Mentally_fit's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
Every part of this process is "vetted", including the selection on the special counsel, the selection of individuals to the team, the approach to the process, the questions raised, the sequence of the questions asked, which special interrogator asks the questions, the location where interrogations take place, the climate of the room, intimate knowledge of the subject's life, family ties and the financial/personal situations of each family member who can be squeezed and for what reason. Why should the President be held to a different standard? This is a war, albeit a political one. It always is, and the SC process is a cancer on our system. It was for Clinton, its infinitely worse in a society with unfettered access to technology and surveillance. Jesus, the teenage angst argument about the popular vote rears its dopey head. -
The Deep State War Heats Up :ph34r:
leh-nerd skin-erd replied to Deranged Rhino's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
Here's the challenge. There are scores and scores of stories about the Dems, the border and everything else. We know Schumer is a big part of the problem, as was John McCain and every other long term senator who accomplishes nothing on border security. The caravan issue was highly publicized....you would think that would galvanize all political leaders r, d and in the middle, as people of good will to solve this issue. Literally every player in the game can look and see something horrible for their side. Yet, nothing happens. Anyway, I understand your point and thanks for the reply. -
It's stunning that with Clapper's resume with respect to all things intelligence-related, he would be comfortable with Wolfe's deception on a massive scale. The argument that Wolfe has found the whole ordeal "traumatic" and that then entitles him to a slap in the wrist shows just how interconnected these two are.

The Deep State War Heats Up :ph34r:
leh-nerd skin-erd replied to Deranged Rhino's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
I disagree with your take on Trump articulating his point of view. I think you're overestimating sound bite management, especially in light of the way media chooses to cover this sort of thing. I'm not disagreeing with the fact that Trump is a bull in a china shop, but I thought he was very effective in getting pelosi and Schumer off their political game. The key talking point was "let's do this in private", andTrump response's was to school them in what transparency really means. He's right, of course, even if he's oversimplifying the point. The fact is is that schumer has been in the senate since 1998' pelosi in office since 1988...and neither has done anything of substance as it realtes to border security. Neither wants to do anything about border security, they have become quite rich, and quite powerful surfing the tides of the status quo. Nothing Trump can say or do in the moment is going to change how they are viewed by their supporters, so bust it down to the lowest common denominator. He's got pelosi tap dancing after the fact suggesting they weren't prepared to discuss this issue in public, and they didn't want to embarrass the prez by correcting him. I think Trump artfully made them look like the political hacks that they are, if art can be made from a chain saw cutting into sludge. -
THE ROCKPILE REVIEW - “No Review This Week”

Absolutely. Unbelievably bad yesterday, with SH injured to boot. -
Trump foreign policy

DR is The Nudnik Whisperer. And yes, he does say things. Very true, efficiently written.

We also know that investigators are human, some lie, some bluff, some are political and some are crooked. We know that people will flip to save their own skin, and we know that people will manufacture testimony to save themselves. It's a clister*****, plain and simple, and when all is said and done, it's virtually impossible to survive an all-out assault by the government with unlimited resources, no parameters as to who can investigate despite partisan tendencies, and a mandate that can best be summarized as "go find something somewhere.". On the plus side, watching a steady parade of nudniks stream in and out with commentary like "Nobody knows nothing they don't already know!" Is priceless.

Does a Man of God Like Trump Attend Church?
leh-nerd skin-erd replied to Warren Zevon's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
in your scenario, the better solution would be to build a wall between civic government and...people. your crusade, insofar as your comments on this message board are concerned, just pays homage to a different god. all the telltale signs of zealotry are there, and it's fascinating that you can't see it. I suppose that's just the nature of being a zealot. -

Until we sort this officiating we are going nowhere
leh-nerd skin-erd replied to Jasovon's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
The league is to blame for certain. High def television is to blame in part as well. Fan expectation is part of the problem. However, in a game with 20+ flags thrown, it's hard to reconcile the tackle up at the helmet on JA and the pass int missed on the Zay drop near the end. The flags were thrown at a rate of one every 3 minute of football. They were calling the game tightly (which should never need to be said) why keep the flags in the pocket on the last series? This was a bad crew yesterday. There are bad teams, there are bad crews, I've never understood why some folks (not you in this case) feel that should be glossed over. Add in the allegation that one of the officials was jawing with Jerry Hughes, it's part of the overall product.
