    Looking better all the time.
  2. At least I don't spend years hanging around a message board of a team I don't like. Or say winning the super bowl was the worst thing that could happen to this team. Or self congratulating myself constantly in the vain attempt to get someone else to do it for you. Etc etc.....
  3. Maybe they just think you're an idiot?
  4. Seven weeks removed from a unanimous MVP season and there's a ton of bitching. I know some of the people here predicted failure so you're backed into that corner, wait for it and pick apart every mistake. Constantly predicting failure does not make you look smart or objective - just makes you look like a negative asshole. @varaven45 - the brain transplant/ between the ears stuff is really offensive. We would all like constant improvement, actually I'm not sure that is true for some of us here, and maybe it seems logical that improvement would be consistent- but so many good/very good/ great QBs have had years or periods in their development where they struggled. It happens. And its not like this offense is so talented the problem has to be Lamar. Times like this I'm not surprised Baltimore fans have whiney reputation we do.
  5. Lamar is not having the best season and today he was not good at all. But he didn't lose the game by himself. And anyone contemplating a future without him or suggesting it's proven what he can or cannot do - is pretty fucking stupid. As if no good or great QBs ever lost their first few playoff games or had a step backwards in their development.

    Scariest thing I've read all Halloween season
  7. The first Chargers game was a really big win though! The playoff loss was ugly but that team was a surprise and still forming so I don't blame that on anyone. They won some big games last year so I have hope. I just wouldn't wager on them right now.

    Voted in Jacksonville. That was about a 40 minute wait. Not bad. My local place is a mess to even drive near.
  9. I agree, can't hurt. I cannot like our chances yet. I think Pittsburgh is a more talented team.

    I'm off this week, trying to early vote but so far my local place has been packed. Consistent times of 2-3 hours. I'll try later, if not I will go on election day.
  12. I hope they win, but win or lose - if they call a pass when I think they should run (or vice versa) I am not going to be happy!

    Trump has supporters, not cult followers......is what I to myself when I drive by two houses in my area that look like a trump campaign store blew up on them. Most politicians have followers who have boat parades and car convoys. All perfectly normal
  14. What's it all about?
  15. Unless someone develops quickly I think this is one of the worst groups of WRs in the league. Brown gives me hope, a few times he has been coming back to help Lamar when he's been in trouble. That's good to see. I'm not sold on him as a #1 though. Might not be all Boykin's fault but he and Lamar are not on the same page. Figure it out quickly or give his reps to someone else. We still have time to develop a decent passing game using the WRs instead of just the TEs. Hopefully we do. If not Lamar is going to get killed and the playoffs, assuming we make it, will be tough. Oh well at least its not like our WR cast-offs make much noise anywhere else.
  16. I think when people look for negatives, they often find them. If one wants to harp on shortcomings, whether big or anything short of perfection - that does not mean that person is more objective or knowledgeable than others. It just means they are more negative. I feel sports radio and or message boards has given a huge rise to the amount of people that think being contrarians makes them look like something more. But again, it's sports. Keep predicting bad things and they will eventually probably happens. It's not as impressive as you think.
  17. KC. Pittsburgh. Seattle? Hats off to some other teams for good starts but there are some I wouldn't put as elite.
  18. Pretty good illustration of how one party listening to a reality show star instead of doctors worked out for them. https://dangoodspeed.com/covid/total-cases-since-june Sadly not just for them....
  19. Who? Where? Any of the projections I recall were far lower. Even March forecasts I pull now are much lower. I can find a CDC worst case model from March that tracked with a 200,000 death total but experts didn't think we'd get there. We did. Its amazing what lies and mismanagement can do. Continue to do. Some models have us over 400,000 by the end of the year.
  20. Whoa, I was just saying why the media is covering one way more than the other. Oh, but misinformation and mocking safety protocals is not rhetoric.
  21. Well they should both know better and do better but my guess is the media is all over the White House because they are elected officials and supposedly leaders and the other is a sports league. Last I heard the sports league wasn't responsible for giving out false information, politicizing and mocking safety measures, and downplaying the seriousness of the disease - all of which contributed to hundreds of thousands of deaths. Many which would have been avoidable. That's my guess anyway...

    Coronavirus

    It wasn't great but I could get most of what I needed. I did have top go to two stores to get everything. No toilet paper or paper towels needed yet and have a bad feeling about finding them in a week or so. It's weird what people are hoarding. Tortilla chips, trash bags....

    I guess I'll go see what is left at the grocery store
  25. Hundreds of horses die each year in horse racing, almost 500 in the US in 2018. Many others get injured. When it goes well it's still a "sport" where someone whips a horse to make it go faster. Garbage "sport" run by corrupt garbage people.
