  1. ISIS recruiting video https://ia902501.us.archive.org/28/items/ThereIsNoLifeWithoutJihad/There%20is%20No%20Life%20Without%20Jihad.mp4
  2. Exactly, its not the homogenized revenue model fingon suggested .... add in merchandizing too
  3. Then what accounts for the wide discrepancy between the cowboys valued at $2.3 billion and, for example, raiders at $825 million? http://www.cbssports.com/nfl/eye-on-football/23152627/cowboys-patriots-and-redskins-are-nfls-most-valuable-franchises
  4. "I'm not so sure about that. These are highly prestigious "trophy" assets, and very scarce. They don't have to look like a great return on a pure cash flow basis, particularly when there's an expectation they can be sold at increasingly higher prices. Think of them more as famous art pieces which yield nothing on a carry basis, yet still sell at very expensive valuations. So Steve ballmer comes out of no where and pays $2B for clippers, that can trigger a lot of ego-driven buyers for the next major sports francise that becomes available.
  5. US and other western countries have been looking the other way on this sort of thing because it was against Assad. Now not surprinsingly its come back to haunt them (always does), including the shooter at Jewish museum in Belgium, who had returned fr fighting with the "rebels" in Syria. "Radicalized young American Muslims — including as many as 15 Somali-born Minnesotans — have flocked to ISIS in recent months, lured to the jihadist group by rap videos and hip social-media propaganda." http://nypost.com/2014/06/20/us-muslims-flocking-to-jihadist-group-isis/
  6. I don't know who, but the # will be $1.75 billion
  7. Music: Michael Jackson Comedy: John Belushi
  8. Yeah right that would have been great had we taken out Assad like the Saudis were begging. Then the entire country of Syria would be in the hands of ISIS, and not just Iraq but Lebanon would be under complete siege too.
  9. ---- Looks like we're be providing some kind of air support ... Joint Chiefs chairman: Iraq has asked for U.S. air power to counter militants http://edition.cnn.c...st/iraq-crisis/ ---- Which of course benefits the Iranian foreign fighters, and is part of Obama's mideast pivot to Iran ..... "Obama was asked about the dangers of Sunni extremism and Shiite extremism by Bloomberg's Jeffrey Goldberg earlier this year. The Iranians, Obama said, "are strategic, and they're not impulsive. They have a worldview, and they see their interests, and they respond to costs and benefits.... They are a large, powerful country that sees itself as an important player on the world stage, and I do not think has a suicide wish, and can respond to incentives." And on Sunni extremism? Obama's silence speaks volumes. The surge of activity from radical jihadi groups likely only underlines their danger -- and the difference between them and the government of Iran. " http://www.foreignpo...campaign=buffer ----- Which is why Obama doesn't want to risk going to Congress for permission ..... Obama to Congress: I don't need new permission http://edition.cnn.c...litics/us-iraq/
  10. "Redskins" spelled backwards is "Sniksder" .... I'd just go with that and call it a day
  11. The Jill's would be amazing !
  12. So another team could change its name to the Redskins and there's nothing Washington can do about it. Or even all other 31 teams. Redskins @ Redskins (every game) Not exactly what the protestors wanted !
  13. But doesn't that already go on? You can on the internet and buy tons of unlicensed stuff.
  14. Wasnt he in a leaked sex tape ?
  15. Again, Texans path seems very clear to me and Andre Johnson too: sacrifice this season, give Clowney a year to develop, get your franchise QB in next year's draft .... both Mariota and Winston easily project higher than any QB in this year's draft. It's a good 2 to 3 year plan. Only question,what happens to Johnson this year? What's his trade value anyone? "New coach Bill O'Brien named Ryan Fitzpatrick the starter, an announcement overshadowed somewhat by Johnson's absence Tuesday on the first day of a mandatory three-day mini-camp." http://sports.yahoo.com/news/andre-johnson-no-show-texans-175526280--nfl.html
  16. he sucks, basically Texans are saying this isn't their year. they give Clowney a year to develop, sacrifice the record, and draft their QB of the future next year. Thats why Andre Johnson ... who's getting up in years and wants to win now ... wants out
  17. trying to find secret how mini-me keeps shagging models
  18. Verne Troyer frisked by TSA
  19. Raises the other question though what weapons are they using? The guns, RPGs, etc you see them with ... where were they made? How did they get them? Who trained them how to use the more sophisticated ones?
  20. I also want to know with all the intelligence in the area how no one saw this ISIS surge coming.
  21. Both wrong. Try P Diddy ... Puff Daddy- Come With Me:
  22. That's spot on. I spoke to a soldier who was there and he said it didn't matter when we leave, "they" would just come back. That's the fallacy of "it's Obama's fault for withdrawing" argument; timing does't matter, and we can't stay indefinitely due to costs. The mistake is not leaving, it's going in. Iraq borders were drawn up in the most stupid way possible given the rift between Shiite and Sunni, and then throw in Kurds to complete the trifecta.
  23. Preach on brother Jesse!!!!
  24. As phrased, the analogy is incorrect for reasons already stated. Has nothing to do with "right(s)". Really nothing else to say here. Meazza is a simpleton and has no depth to offer, at least you try but alas get all confused with "rights et al." Anyway fellas keep up the .....
