SlimShady'sSpaceForce Posted January 19, 2019 Posted January 19, 2019 I only came because they paid me 3
Doc Brown Posted January 19, 2019 Posted January 19, 2019 Excellent. I love a good debate between whether a more fiscal or monetary economic policy is appropriate in today's age of unprecedented economic growth. 2 2

I don't know, I'm thinking Bill is going to debate Marshawn on why Pete Carroll was right to pass instead of run. 1

Can't imagine why he's on the show, which is part of why I found it interesting enough to make a thread on it. I'm thinking it might be related to the league's policy regarding pot smoking or something like that. Bill's a total pot head. 1

uticaclub Posted January 19, 2019 Posted January 19, 2019 Not a fan on Bill Mahar, but might have to tune into for this one

But I like that Mahar is sometimes unpredictable. He'll deviate from his liberal foundation from time to time and surprise me... I agree with him from time to time 1

N.Y. Orangeman Posted January 19, 2019 Posted January 19, 2019 (edited) Marshawn Lynch... Berkeley undergrad and masters degrees. Assisting fellow athletes, good community guy.. Some TBDers ....never mind.... Edited January 19, 2019 by N.Y. Orangeman 1 2 2
reddogblitz Posted January 19, 2019 Posted January 19, 2019 Nice. I already had it TIVOed and am looking even more forward to watching it now.

Assisting fellow athletes, good community guy.. Some TBDers ....never mind.... Well, I gave him a chance. And sorry, nothing he said convinced me that he is anything other than an ill-informed fool. Maher, tiptoeing around the issue: You've been involved in fighting gentrification. How do you define that? Lynch: it's when white people move in and drive out everyone else. So it's not part of gentrification when a rich African American builds a mansion in a formerly economically depressed area? An African American like, say, Marshawn Lynch? https://www.businessinsider.com/photos-marshawn-lynchs-california-home-2012-10#the-office-6 Conclusion: fool. [I used to live in Richmond, CA. I know what I'm talking about here]
Formerly Allan in MD Posted January 19, 2019 Posted January 19, 2019 Welcome back Bill, Marshawn or not. 2

You're the fool. Read a book. Nevermind, you have all the answers because your parents and your church and your white school told you how to think, which has been reinforced by Fox News. 2 1 1

Nevermind, you have all the answers because your parents and your church and your white school told you how to think, which has been reinforced by Fox News. I am quite sure I've read more books - including books (and academic articles) about gentrification - than you ever will. Quick, no googling: name one scholar who specialized in the study of gentrifying neighborhoods. EDIT: Lynch also said the following jaw-dropper when asked by Maher about whether he plans to keep playing, particularly in light of the information we have about the long term damage football can do. His answer: I don't know, and that's why I always lead with my head, so the defensive guy bears the brunt. Really. He said this. Maher tried to ask a follow-up but got nowhere.

Answer: Marshawn Lynch The best part was in Overtime when Marshawn was asked if it was true he tried to light a blunt in the Al Davis eternal flame (at 1:48) & he said yes. I'm guessing he doesn't plan on coming back for another season. He also got a lot of s##t from Maher & Frank for admitting he doesn't vote (at 6:29 to the end). Edited January 19, 2019 by Albany,n.y.

Couldn't logically follow along in a conversation. Didn't vote. I loved Marshawn Lynch the player and respect all the positive community service he has performed, but he's just not a very bright guy. I think we all know why he was accepted into Berkeley. 1 1

And Trump is brought up Immediately , look I'm not a big Trump supporter , but the Democrats need to look in the mirror . They have no one to blame but themselves for running Hillary Clinton. 6 hours ago, Albany,n.y. said: The best part was in Overtime when Marshawn was asked if it was true he tried to light a blunt in the Al Davis eternal flame (at 1:48) & he said yes.

"This politic **** , this **** is crazy" - Marshawn Lynch on why he didn't vote.? Sad part is, He has a point
