  1. Unless Dems win both run-off seats and gain control of the Senate, we will not see Trump prosecuted. Even if they do, he will have his hands full with many things and may not want to distract Congress with a political pissing match. If the Dems want to enact true change and bring a scorched earth policy to crush all the Republican corruption and enabling, they first need the clear majority mandate not to lose power in 2 years. So gain the Senate first, then open up voting laws to ensure a maximum participation of voters and elimination of gerrymandering and the electoral college. Then they will have a solid long term base of the majority of voters and can make change without much fear of reprisal. Only then can they safely engage in Trump payback, which would be more for show than actual punishment anyway. They may be content to let NY state take a run at the Donald, and let Rudy and Roger Stone and Steve Bannon slink back under hero respective rocks of irrelevance once they have no true influential power.
  2. So what’s the discussion? Who is the bigger loud mouthed egotistical d*ck? Kelly or Pederson? Sure. Discuss.
  3. The follow-up back story to this is quite something. After he opened his own phony church and asked for money, Oliver shut it down. Not because he had to, but because people sent more than just money, and it became a public health issue. Won’t spoil it if you don’t know, but here is the link to the progression of episodes.
  4. Sorry, stopped reading your post after I saw you reduce all of the Streveler man crush posts you yourself requested down to “blah blah blah”. Hilariously accurate. Succinct, spot on, perfect. Well done.
  5. Well, only since you asked. Here are the receipts: FYI the Cards have the #2 offence in the NFL, only behind the Chiefs. And they are #3 in rushing.
  6. He moves like he still has the hanger inside his shirt.
  7. My disdain is not for Streveler or those who merely hope he does well.
  8. The desperation of the Streveler fan boys to see him play and their belief that he is the end all be all but for being held back is rivalling Trump supporters who still believe he lost the election.
  9. At least a glimmer of good news there. Recovered cases outpaced new cases for the first time since September I believe, so total cases are down. Deaths are going to increase for a bit I fear since they always lag behind case increases, but hopefully the measures are starting to take effect in terms of lessening transmission.
  10. How any senator gets to play the stock market given potential conflict of interest or potential for insider trading abuse is beyond me, but her husband is literally the chairman of the NYSE, how is this not an immediate conflict the moment she plays the market?
  11. This is her “living pay check to pay check” house:
  12. Such a waste of time trying to argue with these Trump supporters. They can’t be reasoned with, bargained with, ever convinced that they are completely wrong in their beliefs, and unwilling to accept logic and cold hard facts. Biden and the Democrats need to realize this and honestly stop trying to placate them with “unite the country” talk. I find it hard to see anything redeemable about the Republican Party, so burn it to the ground while you have the liberal numbers. Kill the electoral college, eliminate gerrymandering, stack the Supreme Court. Republicans manipulated the rules without apology to their benefit and never sweated the fallout because these are their followers and they know people’s attention spans are too short for there to be repercussions. Time to bury this hateful segment of America once and for all. Monday rant over.
  13. Somehow it does not bother me that Trump is fleecing his gullible flock for money to line his pockets. Biden has more to worry about than opening an investigation into this particular problem. Let those Republican donors who feel ripped off bring a class action civil suit.
  14. I just don’t understand how they determine if an outbreak is contained or not. Denver had 3 QBs who were negative but had close contact with the positive QB, so all 4 deemed ineligible - but the outbreak is contained? And Baltimore QB gets a positive test, and they say it is not contained? It would have been better for the Broncos to declare that they couldn’t confirm all those who had contact with the positive testing QB, so their outbreak was not contained, and then they get a delay. The rule may be spelled out, but how the NFL is implementing it needs a better explanation, or else it looks random and inconsistent.
  15. The issue isn’t comparing football players to the real world. The issue is equity and consistency within the NFL itself. The Titans have a COVID outbreak, they get a pass until they can field a proper team at the expense of the Steelers bye week. The Niners team gets decimated due in part to COVID protocols, too bad you have to play as planned, put out your practice squad. Baltimore has a COVID outbreak, sure we can put off your match until your QB and other starters are cleared, who cares if we force the Steelers to lose another mini-bye and now make them play twice on 5 days. But hey Denver, you have no quarterbacks, but we can’t postpone your match, sucks to be you. Rules are completely inconsistent and are screwing some teams while giving others a competitive advantage.
  16. Wonder what the pastor would say about this counterpoint opinion on religious freedom vs. “tyrannical edicts” from another religious figure - the Pope. https://www.nytimes.com/2020/11/26/opinion/pope-francis-covid.html#click=https://t.co/uT9CQoJ5OE
  17. It’s a life sentence, not 25 years. And with the Faint Hope clause he could apply for parole in 15 years anyway. I wouldn’t worry, I’d wager big money he isn’t going to be seeing the outside of a prison any time while I still walk this earth, and I plan on being around for 40 more years at least.
  18. Aw, it would be such a shame to see all of Trump’s “lawsuit campaign” fund (a.k.a. “recoup all the money we spent running a losing election campaign” fund) money get eaten up defending these civil suits and paying out settlements.
  19. I see what you did there. But if anyone missed the brilliant subtlety of your response, let me hammer it home I was not. But I would sure like to take DeJoy out of the Post.
  20. Because of the pardon, Flynn no longer has 5th Amendment immunity so if Congress now calls him to testify about Russian collusion in 2016 he can’t dodge the subpoena or refuse. Commutation of sentence would have still protected him.
  21. Who cares? Trump will just pardon him anyway.
  22. You mean Trump might actually win a lawsuit?
  23. Are you honestly concerned that this loyal cult is (a) willing to abandon their leader now because of logic, or (b) smart enough to see the flaw in this plan? At this point you could draw them a diagram of the self-destructive outcome of this move and they would still yell “fake news” and bow down to dear leader. If they still risk their lives not wearing masks to support the Trump mindset, I’m not too worried about them pulling off the 3D chess mental gymnastics to prevent their own demise of a Republican Senate majority.
  24. This Parler movement to write in Trump for the Georgia senate race is the first thing the MAGA crowd has suggested that I agree with. Since Trump is not registered as a candidate, any write-in for him is simply a spoiled ballot, and since it will only eat away at Republican votes, both Senate swats could flip Democrat and result in a 50-50 Senate, with the VP being the tie-breaker as needed. Talk about cutting off your nose to spite your face.
  25. We all miss it, or we would not be here posting on a Bomber fan site. But to say a missed season is the worst thing he has ever had happen to him is either laughably false, or he has led the most privileged life of all time, and has no business whining about anything. And to use that self-entitlement to justify bashing the commish for nothing more than the optimistic news of next year’s schedule coming out is totally off base in my opinion. 10 people are dying daily in this Province due to a modern plague and a lost football season is the most gutting thing ever? Give US a break, not him.
