  1. How many of these deaths were due to what happened in NY nursing homes? How many deaths were falsely attributed to covid19? These might be good questions to ask the dementia patient running for president, or even his degenerate thief kid.
  2. I missed that part where the OP said the "world is wrong." I wasn't sure that the whole world was in agreement on covid19. Is it really? Please fill me in, I feel so left out!
  3. It's all good. I only mentioned it because I have been hearing complaints about this type of remark for decades. I also think that most people who say this (and especially in your case) do not mean it as a racial slight, but; I also see how it can be taken as one.
  4. "Well dressed black man? Seriously? Don't you think that the implication there is that being "well dressed" would seem to paint him as an exception? Also, the term in itself (aside from being racist) is really quite subject to opinion, wouldn't you agree? "Well spoken" is another backhanded compliment that some folks use to describe an intelligent black person. Oh, and all of us know other famous code words such as "good neighborhood" and "good schools." Please don't misunderstand....I am in NO WAY accusing you of racism. I will say that the term "well dressed" was already being frowned upon in the 70's.
  5. Hurry.....Somebody blame President Trump!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  6. Well my mama told me, my papa told me too Now my mama told me, papa told me too Well I shouldn't be here tryin' to sing these railroad blues Wish I had listened what my mama said Wish I had listened what my mama said Well I wouldn't be here tryin' to sleep in this cold iron bed
  7. When I was just a little young boy, Papa said "Son you'll never get far," I'll tell you the reason, if you want to know, 'Cause child of mine, there isn't really very, far to go" Well baby baby wants a gold diamond ring Wants it more than most any old thing Well when I get those jelly roll blues Why I'd go and get, anything in this world for you.
  8. Tua could not possibly have a better teacher. He is very lucky (and very good).
  9. I disagree. Often he was really the only player on the team with any pass rushing ability. Sometimes they would line him up so wide he was almost on the sideline. Then they would at times drop him into coverage. At the beginning I do admit that he was rather one dimensional, but he really came around. He would have made much more of an impact n a team with good players and decent coaches. The Bills were of course playing from behind quite often and teams would be running out the clock, thus giving him less opportunities for sacks. I thought AS was a very fine player, and would gladly agree to disagree.
  10. Let's not forget placing a higher value on dbs than any other position. You should post more often.
  11. I hear ya, and was never one to pass on a solid OL pick. That said, the Bills fell apart when Levy waited too long to replace players such as Bruce, Thurman, Andre, and even Kelly. He preferred drafting defensive backs. I don't want the Bills to wait if they think a player is as good as I think Davonta is. He was said to have the best hands on the Tide, on teams that included Jeudy, Ruggs, and even Ridley. He also has great moves and can block, and if anything; he has proven what he can do in the clutch. Oh and btw, Bama will have some great blockers coming out this year. It might be the best OL on the Tide since the year they demolished ND for the title, which was the best college OL I for one have ever seen.
  12. I thought so too for a while but then started to view him as a one trick pony.
  13. You certainly mean Orlando Pace or Walter Jones but I get it. My thing is you don't trade away a great LT for a chance at a decent to good Center. Smart organizations just don't make mistakes like that. Also, did you see the salaries of Dockery and Walker compared to that of Peters? Walker and Dockery both were second rate players. Wait, let me go a step further and say that they both sucked. Peters was great and having him would have afforded us the opportunity to be set at LT for many years. Trading JP was inexcusable. jmo
  14. Dumb question but does this result in a big increase in trade-in value?
  15. Every word of the above is 100% true. Jason Peters is one of the best players in the history of the team and we traded him for a bag of doughnuts.
  16. Just seeking some clarity.....do you think that all of the dictatorial governors would have been just fine with a set of rules laid down by our president and would not have opposed a federal policy for political gain? If so, that seems a bit idealistic but that's just me being me lol.
  17. I don't think that he was demanding that each and every school has to immediately go back to full time, in person education right this second. There certainly is a middle ground. I'm sure almost everyone can see this. As for teacher's salaries, you explained the situation where you are, and I believe you. On Long Island, top pay public school teachers make roughly 4x as much, and are demanding more. The system on Long Island reeks of corruption. For example, there is 1 Board of Education/School District in NYC. In Nassau and Suffolk Counties (Long Island) there are 125 districts, each with a school board. These boards are for the most part made up of teachers from other districts, and wannabe politicians who are elected to office by funds provided by teachers unions. They decide teacher's salaries. The large number of districts helps to keep the schools segregated. The situation is corrupt and vile, and I only scratched the surface.
  18. Interesting. I wonder how many people will not be out there to pick up the food. You can't just leave it there either for danger of some sick **** tampering with it. There is no way around the fact that we need teachers to help us in these troubled times.
  19. Yeah, he insulted you right off the bat, and does so even after you (and I) wished his family well and hoped that necessary accomodations were made for them. Once again I ask, are teachers "essential" workers, or do their unions (not most individual teachers) just want the great benefits, insane vacations, and big pay raises? https://www.oann.com/u-s-teachers-added-to-essential-worker-list-as-they-face-white-house-pressure-to-return-to-classrooms/
  20. Rob Johnson was big, a great runner, had a cannon for an arm, and was extremely accurate. Because of the above, he was going to be a franchise QB and lead us to big places. Oh, this was me.
  21. Well a couple shots of whiskey, women `round here start looking good, I said a couple shots of whiskey, women `round here start looking good, A couple more shots of whiskey, I'm going down to Minglewood. Said I was born in the desert Raised in a lion's den Said I was born in the desert Raised in a lion's den Yes and my number one occupation Is stealing women from their men
  22. How will schools replace computers which are lost or "stolen?" Does anybody believe that none of these computers will be sold off? School taxes might end up being higher for a totally inferior education. Like I said before, ultimately; the poor kids will suffer the most. I am very pro-labor and understand that the teachers unions are there to provide for and defend their members. That said, any claims that these unions (not the teachers themselves) care about the kids and/or taxpayers are nonsensical lies.
  23. Davonta Smith (who belongs on the Bills imo) is very impressed by Bryce Young. I have missed on many quarterbacks. I thought Rob Johnson would come around and be great. That said, this kid has everything going for him. I just can't wait to see him compete and kick ass. https://www.al.com/alabamafootball/2020/08/alabama-qb-bryce-young-is-ready-impressing-teammates.html?fbclid=IwAR0lF00LPawLiGEQFlUb780cXqajJL0RACwNtb62DFzD0CZZ-Zg-_BMQGXs
  24. Public school teachers on Long Island at top pay can pull in WELL over 100K, great benefits, and let's not forget 4 months or so off per year. Seriously, far more than 100K. I'm friends with many of them, and some have told me that they want to go back to school.
  25. Late yesterday night I saw a light shine, from a window And, as I looked again Your face, came into sight I couldn't walk on Until you'd gone from, your window I had to make you mine I knew, you were the one
