    Russia shoots down another airliner

    Good thing his buddy Biden is moving out soon.
  2. Reading up on things, it appears building a wall takes an act of congress where as getting Greenland doesn't. Acquiring Greenland would be an international issue and hence would be up to the United Nations. If the Prime Minister of Greenland put the issue to a public vote and it passed, and Trump did the same here in the US and it passed, it would move to the UN to decide to ratify the annexation or not. This is my impression though. Everything I read up on says that annexation is illegal... unless... [a bunch of stuff, never a straight answer].

    Four way intersections

    In NJ, it's your immediate right. If all 4 vehicles meet at the same time, it's common courtesy. I'm a guessing every state is like this. If so, not sure what the issue is.

    Penix to play.

    Cousins was coming back from an injury that is just as impactful as an ACL to a RB... and that was only just a year ago. Any RB coming back from an ACL isn't 100% just 10 months later. In fact, virtually everyone expects diminished returns that year. The following year however, is something that could be seen as the bounce back year. For Cousins, that's next year. Yes, the Falcons are doubling down on stupid because they knew the likelihood of this outcome, still signed him, and then benched (and possibly will cut), him before he's really back. They should've let the year play out. Be it Cousins or Penix, they're not going anywhere this year. Why create even more drama than they already had? Finish the season and going into next year with the intent of playing Cousins. If he loses the job, fine, they're only on the hook for a $35M cap hit for 2026. That's not the end of the world. Cut him after this season, they go into next year with a $65M dead cap hit. If the Falcons had a great defense and were say 10-5 right now, and Cousins was the reason they weren't 13-2, then ok. That's not the case. They're essentially a league average team in a below average division. Even if they make the playoffs and get a home game, they're 1 and done. What did that accomplish?

    House panel votes to release Matt Gaetz ethics report

    I agree. Just like we should all agree that Biden groping little girls on camera should. Or is that (D)ifferent?

    I don't know, I didn't look at any of the documentation. I'm simply saying that if he did commit a crime then I fully support him being prosecuted. If he's found guilty, throw him in jail for however long. Doesn't bother me any.

    I think the Falcons are doubling down on stupid. I don't think Cousins was playing great by any stretch, but I think that he's playing like a lot of players who are only about a year removed from surgery. He got hurt last year at the end of October or early November... I believe it was either week 8 or week 9 and his surgery was at the end of November. The biggest road block for athletes is the mental aspect. The Achilles is no different than an ACL in that the heal time is approximately 9 months to a year. Cousins was practicing at 7 months. He probably shouldn't have been. He's been playing tentative all year. If both the Falcons and Cousins were smart, neither signs the deal. The Falcons of course are dumber. That said, Cousins is likely to be fine next season and be back to his normal self. The Falcons, because of the crappy division they're in and the softness of their schedule are in the playoff hunt. They're now making a change at QB to safe face of wasting a top 10 draft pick on a QB. Had Tampa won last night, the Falcon's season could be over when they lose next week to Washington. The thing is, they made the change before the week started. There's no going back. If they'd have left Cousins in, the season doesn't change... they beat the Giants and Panthers, but lose to Washington and miss the playoffs. Next year, they tell everyone that it's QB competition. When Cousins wins, they would have Y2 with a healthy Cousins and probably make the playoffs. After the season, they can make the decision to move on from Cousins and the dead cap hit would be a lot less than what it will be next year. Over the last 10 months, every decision they made at QB, was the wrong one.

    Ok. Then answer it the way you want to and make yourself happy.

    Joe Biden groped little girls, CNN has it on video. I mean, that wasn't an issue, why is this? If he committed a crime, prosecute him.
  13. In the semi-finals of a dynasty league, I lost 147.088 to 147.087. Yes, 3 digits. It was a league with bonus scoring. If you had a RB or WR with over 100 yards, instead of getting 1 point for 10 yards, you got 1.026 until they hit 125 yards, then you got 1.027. Every 25 yards, the points went up 0.001. With passing, it was the same concept with going over 300 yards. The biggest point differential was losing 224 to 93. That was back when Marshall Faulk, Jeff Garcia, and Joe Horn were good. The guy I was playing had all 3, and each one scored over 40 points that week.

    I don't understand the issue. If he's guilty of a crime, prosecute him.
  15. Of all the rookie WR's, Brian Thomas seems to be the only WR to be able to overcome a terrible QB on a bad team. At this point in time, Arizona, Chicago, and the Giants all screwed up with their top 10 pick. It's only Y1 though, so things can change.

    Elon musk shuts down govt

    I'm not making excuses, what I'm wondering is why it's an issue now but it hasn't been not only the last 4 years, but I don't know... the last 20?

    So ONE rich man that we know who it is and can be accountable is a problem but a bunch of rich men, behind the curtains in the ears of the politicians, that's ok?

    Sounds like you're upset because the person who wasn't elected is calling the shots. Why is that a problem now, but hasn't been the last 4 years?

    Don't worry, @thegeneral will be around soon to tell you that Elon and Trump had it all prepared for the Democrats.

    Jeudy with DTR at the helm

    Oh, no doubt. Winston has elite arm talent... he just has ZERO QB talent. Maybe he gets his wish and God delivers him from all these Pick 6's.

    Honestly, I think they if they go to trial, Mangione is going to try an insanity plea.

    He thinks that Trump and everyone else will just do what Musk tells them to do. Funny, they didn't seem to have a problem the last 4 years when someone was telling Biden what to do.
