Global warming err Climate change HOAX
Bill from NYC replied to Very wide right's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
I am not so sure if Russia and China are "allies." One would think that the lack of demand for oil is hurting Russia, but they are still a world power due to their weaponry. You are young but if you read up on it, China didn't like Russia as far back as Nixon and Kissenger. Those two are said to have paved the way for our relationship with China. Call me simplistic, but imo we could really hurt China by consumerism. It may sound banal but simply "buying American" would cost us a bit more initially but benefit us in the long run. I am not wanting to "punish" them, but; I resent how dependent on them that we seem to be. They were getting away with murder in terms of tariffs with previous administrations. Hopefully, Americans have had enough after this disaster, which might have been intentional. This we will never know. -
The above is very good information, and clearly points to Sammy being a "good" player, if not perhaps very good. What just so many don't understand is that being a "good" player doesn't make one a good draft pick. Things like the draft slot, cost of a trade, who the Bills management passed on to take him, and even other factors determine whether or not someone was a good draft selection for a football team. Donte Whitner at #8 cost us 36 million in real cap dollars. He held out, had off field incidents, and almost never took over a game and won it for us. Yet, he was a "good" player? Was he a good pick? No, and great players were selected after him.

I'm going where the sun keeps shining Through the pouring rain Going where the weather, suits my clothes Banking off of the northeast winds Sailing on a summer breeze And skipping over the ocean, like a stone

If I had my choice of matter I'd would rather be with cats All engrossed in mental chatter Showing where your mind is at While relating to each other How strong the love can be By resisting all the good times with each groovy chick we see I'm a man yes I am and I can't help but love you so I'm a man yes I am and I can't help but love you so

Had motor trouble it turned into a struggle, half way 'cross Alabam, The 'hound broke down left us all stranded in downtown Birmingham. Straight off bought me a through train ticket, right across Mississippi clean And I was on the midnight flyer out of Birmingham Smoking into New Orleans. Somebody help me get out of Louisiana Just help me get to Houston town. People are there who care a little 'bout me And they won't let the poor boy down. Sure as she bore me, she bought me a silk suit, put luggage in my hands, And I woke up high over Albuquerque On a jet to the promised land

Best: Kyle Williams, easily I might add Worst: Whitner in the same draft. There were great players that we passed on to take him. In fact, Levy said that he turned down numerous trade down offers to take this undersized safety. I don't think that any draft pick set the team back to this extent, although a case could be made for White.

Yes, Fitz being better than Allen is a sad and scary scenario, one which I thankfully doubt.

Not only that, he was smart, fast on his feet, and big. There was no phase of the game at which he didn't excel. It's hard to describe his arm strength, and I was young when I watched him but I'm thinking that his arm was a mixture of Marino and Bledsoe.

If Jones didn't get injured, he would be one of the best ever. Much better than Fergy, who WAS good, but not even close to Jones. Jmo.

What is the difference between Neil Armstrong and Michael Jackson? Neil Armstrong walked on the moon. Michael Jackson slept with kids.

Listen to my bluebird laugh, she can't tell you why Deep within her heart, you see, she knows only crying, just crying, yeah. There she sits, a lofty perch, strangest colour blue Flying is forgotten now, thinks only of you, just you, oh yeah. So, get all those blues, must be a thousand hues Be just differently used, you just know You sit there mesmerized by the depth of those eyes That you can't categorize, she's got soul, she's got soul, she's got soul, she's got soul.

For the record, Levy made this insane "promise" to Clements and let him walk. It was just another chapter in the 1st round DB roller coaster. Apologists justify these stupid moves by saying that fill in the blank 1st round DB was "good." And they were, but they were stupid picks. The proof is in our W/L records. Is Tre "good?" Sure. He might even be great. Should they have drafted a qb? Yes, and I just don't care about who else passed them up! This is no excuse for idiocy and repeating the same stupid mistakes! I can't understand why this doesn't jump out at you. Again, this regime looks good. Personally, I like Beane more than McDermott, although I'm not sure how much I like this latest trade of our #1. It might turn out to be a GREAT trade but I'm just a bit skeptical, and tell me; why shouldn't I be? There are just so many great receivers in this draft, wouldn't you say? Peace, and GO BILLS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The black-throated wind keeps on pouring in With its words of a lie that could almost be true Ah, Mother American Night, here comes the light I'm turning around, that's what I'm gonna do Goin' back home that's what I'm gonna do Turnin' around That's what I'm gonna do 'Cause you've done better by me Than I've done by you

I just don't know what to do with myself Don't know just what to do with myself I'm so used to doing everything with you Planning everything for two And now that we're through I just don't know what to do with my time I'm so lonesome for you it's a crime Going to the movie only makes me sad Parties make me feel as bad When I'm not with you I just don't know what to do

It does, and is clearly superior. My thing is that we desperately needed a QB. It could have been Mahomes or Watson (who was a champion). And, many teams that passed on these 2 already had a qb in place. Blame who you will but imo this is not something to just write off and excuse. It was a continuation of idiocy. I don't see why this should be so hard to accept. Hopefully things will change but this was just another prime example (however temporary) of stupid moves by the Bills front office.

Good call. I mean after all, using our best picks on DBs brought us just so many championships! Good thing we didn't draft Mahomes!!! And yes, corners are far more important than pass rush. Pressure and sacks are an afterthought. A "shut down" corner can stay with his man for at least 10 seconds. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stockholm_syndrome
