Bah. You still have to pay. BLM gets the really good discounts.

That's as big as I can get it. If you take the time to blow it up, it's just as WW says.

What is it Newsome did that has you saying this? If it's about cleaning up the city for the gathering, that's unfair criticism, IMO. Since I mock them for not cleaning up the city, when they actually do clean it up, I have to change my tune. Something doesn't automatically become stupid just because Newsom or London Breed thought it up. Credit where credit is due.

I pretty much accept Paul Pelosi's version of the story, I just thought it unadvisable to wait so long to release the video, but whatever. I think it's funny to play around with the gay love story for comedy purposes but I don't actually take it seriously.

God this is an embarrassing and irresponsible post. The tone deafness is off the charts. Too bad I'm away from home and on the phone, I'd have links for all this. You do realize that Chuck Schumer made an exponentially more direct personal threat on the conservative justices than anything President Trump had ever said? That an assassin was caught just outside Justice Kavenaugh's home? That Merrick Garland did zero, zip, nada, nothing (willfully and deliberately refused to carry out his dury) about protests outside the justices homes - allowed judicial intimidation - which is NOT free speech and a crime under the law and yet none of those people were ever arrested? The fantasy that only exists in your imagunation is the actual reality the conservative justices deal with regularly.

Only six NFC teams in the top 19. 15) Houston Texans 5-4 (19) 16) Los Angeles Chargers 4-5 (14) 17) New York Jets 4-5 (16) ----- 18) Denver Broncos 4-5 (23) 19) Indianapolis Colts 5-5 (21) 20) Los Angeles Rams 3-6 (18 ) 21) Washington Redskins 4-6 (20) ----- 22) New Orleans Saints 5-5 (17) 23) Tampa Bay Buccaneers 4-5 (24) 24) Las Vegas Raiders 5-5 (26) *honorary NFC South member 25) Atlanta Falcons 4-6 (22) ----- 26) Green Bay Packers 3-6 (27) 27) Chicago Bears 3-7 (28) 28) Tennessee Titans 3-6 (25) 29) Arizona Cardinals 2-8 (31) 30) New England Patriots 2-8 (29) 31) Carolina Panthers 1-8 (32) 32) New York Giants 2-8 (30) Big jump for the Browns, new teams on the top and bottom. Finally feel I've right-size the Houston Texans. The Vikings ability to overcome injuries is amazing. IMO the Rams are better than the entire NFC South and what's left of the trade deadline depleted Redskins.

Cleveland is going to have to fall with the latest news. Maybe just ahead of the disappointing duo of Cincinnati and Buffalo until we see how awful (or good) DTR is. The Jets vibe is strong.

The schedule smiled on the Lions. They have the standard six games against their division rivals with two being rather awful, then another four gift games vs the NFC South, four vs the AFC West (they caught KC in a week without Kelce and Jones). The worst of the schedule comes for finishing 2nd in the NFC North last year, so they get three other 2nd place finishers: Baltimore, Seattle, and Dallas.

Michigan State got lucky that they could back out of Mel Tucker's Jimboesque guaranteed mega-contract, not because of mediocre results which they could not have, but because of seemingly specious sexual harassment allegations. The football program is in serious trouble of becoming irrelevant but at least they found a loophole to save a large chunk of money that was unavailable to Texas A&M.

Everyone agrees that David DePape is a weirdo nut. Both side refuse to claim him, instead both say he was a member of the other team. There are also allegations that theirs was a lover's spat.

Ah... privilege Czeched... I nearly missed what you did there.

Lynching is horrible, agreed. Is there a difference between 1920s Alabama whities who would excuse/downplay the beatdown of a black kid and your posts in this thread, and if so what is it?

RIP kid

This is exactly where I got and I saw the trap coming a mile away. There's a good 5 or 6 words that could fit in after you get 1,2, and 5 that'll take you right down and out like you did. My word 3 and 4 guesses weren't attempts to solve, I was trying to eliminate more and more letters but it was difficult to build good words with what I was trying to do, so I could only do three at a time.

Welcome to San Francisco! If you want to get any of your stuff back, check with the local roadside vendors down the street to re-purchase them. Alternatively, if you see somebody that has something you like valued under $950, feel free to help yourself to it. Enjoy your stay.

Yeah. While, I still think Philly and SF are a half step or full step above the Lions. Fortunately, comparing the remaining schedule for the three, Philly and SF have more dangerous landmines and should stumble here and there along the way, allowing the Lions to slip into the #1 seed. I mean it's all right there for Detroit. They just continue to take care of business against lesser opponents, because they look to have the clearest route to the NFC's #1 seed. This back half of the Lions' season is hardly a gauntlet as compared to what SF and Philly are dealing with. They're 7-2 now and 13-4 seems reachable. They should be 7+ point favorites for the next five games: 2 vs Chicago, Green Bay (part II), New Orleans, and Denver. The three hardest games remaining are the last three. They finish the season with two vs Minny sandwiched around a road game against the Cowboys. Focking Eagles. Every time they sputter along then finally get their act together late to pull a game out of their ass, I'm sitting here raging and pounding the table like Dr. Claw. "I'll get you next time, Gadget! Next tiiiiiiiiiiiime!" I'd especially like to see the Chiefs beat the Eagles this week since record against common foes is the first tiebreaker. With the Chiefs having already picked up an "L" against the Lions, they'd be doing Detroit a double favor by putting up a "W" on the Eagles.

Makes me think of how Las Vegas looked like a clown show two Monday nights ago such that there was a massive purge, and have now won both games since.

I agree. I think 10-7 gets you an AFC spot, maybe 9-8, but there are so many teams sniffing around that getting seven of them to 10 seems likely. Maybe I have the Texans still too low, unlike some teams that seem discombobulated and/or treading water, this team is firing on all cylinders.

I was in the same boat... I had the first and last letter and one in the middle but those two letters could have been a half dozen things and they were likely to run me off the board.

Wordle 878 5/6 🟨 🟩🟩 🟩🟨 🟩🟩🟨 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩 What a BS word. I could see this one kicking people's asses.

I'd not edited it. The Broncos have some moxy. I moved them up passed all the wet paper bags in the NFC South and in with teams like the Rams and Jets that I think can bite you in the ass. While I was in there, I re-evaluated Indy down a bit. As for the Bills, fock man, I was a stubborn b*tch and didn't drop them, I kept them right where they were as the worst team in the top 12... because I dunno... I still think if I were a generic NFL head coach with the 16.5 ranked offense and the 16.5 ranked defense, I'd still rather play the Steelers, Vikings, Texans and Chargers than Cincy and Buffalo. But yeah, the 11 and 12 teams, Cincinnati and Buffalo, are fading and starting to look more and more like the 12-16 teams rather than the top ten.

Just when we thought the Bills were finally able to somehow survive all the costly stupids, they simply refused to win the game and dug deep for one more costly stupid.

This game deserved that ending.

OMG
