  1. Its true. But most players dont think about those thngs.
  2. If Wentz can just be solid then Indy is a test. With a washup last yr they were good.
  3. Parties box out some of their own. The progressives are. Look how they took Katie Porter's committee seat after she skewered business leaders. Then I look at what Beohner is saying in his book about many in his caucus dont want to do any work.
  4. https://www.yahoo.com/news/meat-loving-ravens-snatching-steaks-220153629.html
  5. They won't contend but they should be interesting.
  6. Def popular vote. Prob 75 is the age limit. If you are elected at say 73 you can fill out that term. Past that you cannot be on the ballot. An addendum to this is at a certain age like 70 some cognitive tests are begun. If you fail you have to resign. Diane Feinstein has some kind of dementia. Now reporting has come out that she had it the last time she ran for office. The hangers on kept quiet bc she is their meal ticket. I would like to add another couple ideas. The person running for office, their spouse, kids, siblings, and parents need to divest or put their holdings in a fully blind trust. No more using your office to shoot contracts to yourself. No more taking Intel from office and buying and selling stock that help you. That is insider trading and justice should find them and throw them in prison. No more revolving door from govt to industry. You take being a senator and then go the npaa to use your contacts to get stuff for your new employer as an example. Also no treasury sec to go back to Goldman.
  7. The dude is a sleaze. I love this new report about him taking ecstasy during sex. Same asshole wanted to drug test welfare recipients. Let's test everyone making money from the government. So all govt employees and all ppl who work for govt contractors. Let's see who takes drugs.
  8. Glad you have come to your senses. The way I understand it the dems went to the dark side of pro oligarchy in the 70s when they decided we can get that no at too. At times we have had elected officials who work for voters. Most of the time ike did. Fdr did. Teddy did. Some in Congress have. The enrichment from elected office thing is relatively new. What I want to see is the effective end of the electoral college. I want either a mechanism to allow a min of 5 parties to be relevant or my preference no parties at all. I also want term limits in Congress and scotus. I want age limits in all 3 branches. I want money out of politics and biblically financed elections. With these changes all the problems will be settled out on their own.
  9. Btw I like the idea of changing the way possession is for ot. A real question of coaching strategy. Also ending ot in the preseason is a no brainer that should have happened decades ago.
  10. I don't think any hiring should be made until after the sb.
  11. And they are the ones getting abortions for their mistresses. Also the are te ones commiting voter fraud. Sounds like a whole group of projectionists.
  12. Joe put the idea of eagles fan about him in a mentorship position in the trash.
  13. So now you think we wish injury on ppl. I bet you cheered when bollerwent down.
  14. His market must have been flat. What's the under over on active games? With this offensive style and his injury history I say 10.5 games.
  15. Yeah taking a 6 or 10 yd play for a first down is great. Screw that 30 yarder down the sideline. No need for that chunk play that will loosen up the D near the LOS.
  16. They need to make major adjustments in the scouting dept on how wrs are evaluated.
  17. The draft is stocked with them this yr.
  18. I agree let them play. But draft someone also. The team has to find out before payday. Put Lamar on that island and make him throw the ball some in places to that open up the defense.
  19. He is not a paycheck player. He works with his guys in the off season. No 9 to 5 there.
  20. I think both is probably the best bet. A coach like Shannahan could work the system to get Lamar more comfortable. Also route combos that get guys open in more advantageous places. But he would have to make tweaks and I am not sue Lamar would be dynamic in teh pass game. Just more respectable and that could be enough.
  21. And if you are getting a 1 yr deal you dont want to play in a system that almost never throws the ball.
  22. Coaches put their players in the best position to succeed. But in this case can Lamar do more but is being held back. Time to know the answer to that. But the only way to know is put him in those positions where he might look bad.
  23. After a few weeks if the defensive ratchets down again like last yr start calling those pass plays. Put Lamar on full display. Sink or swim. It will show just what kind of QB he is. No WR will play in this run first offense with so few attempts in the air. It hurt them on the market in their next contract.
  24. I am in agreement on that. Harbs should hire a dynamic pass guy for the pass game coordinator and make Roman use the concepts. But John is clueless on these things so as always an OC pushes concepts that hurt the team and Harbs just lets it happen.
