  1. Selling Russia as bad in the past was easy because the Soviet Union was communist. Generations of generally accurate anti-communist training here did the rest. However, with the USSR and Russian communists gone, Putin is something many ‘Muricuns idolize due to popular culture/mythology, i.e., a “greed is good” Mafia Boss, a la Tя☭mp.
  2. CC84 is mostly right about this IMO. It’s not about telling the truth, it’s about selling. The Dems have mostly sucked at selling the benefits of their policies as long as I can remember. They assume the intelligence, historical knowledge, and interest of the voters too much when history has shown there’s little of either for most of them. Biden needs to sell this as being about ‘Muricun jobs and the need to use old weapons now instead of direct intervention and ‘Muricun blood and treasure later. It’s not lying. It’s choosing how to best characterize it so that the benefits to Joe Six PAC are as simple and obvious as possible. One of the few times he actually told the truth about something.
  3. Fair enough. However, you're talking tactics and Putler is thinking strategically. I think one of his major strategic goals is to fracture NATO. One way he could do that is by invading part of a small NATO state with his "little green men", then daring the US and the rest of NATO to risk nuclear war by trying to remove them. I was thinking more along the lines of him taking the Suwalki gap and/or Vilnius, but this could easily fit the bill too. He'd never do it under Genocide Joe because he'd quickly honor our commitments under the NATO treaty. However, once Tя☭mp or another fascist is back in power, all bets are off. Tя☭mp would immediately bleat "'Muricuh first" and "They haven 't paid their bills,"🙄 then declare it none of our business, after which the rest of the Baltic states would go and as much of Poland as Putler can grab.
  4. Bill, I think your next show really needs to be My Feet Are Killing Me. Hell, if I were him, I'd beeline it to the set to see Dr. Ebonie. Laaaaawd! 😍 I'm not so sure. After getting rolled up by undercover agents back in the 80s and 90s, the Klan and other extremist groups started doing the "Ghost Skin" routine and have infiltrated law enforcement and the military. I'm not sure anyone knows the exact numbers, but it's certainly possible that there are enough of them to make fighting an insurgency in this country difficult.
  5. Putler has figured out how to skirt western sanctions to move petroleum products around the globe. Moldova isn’t exactly a super power militarily, is not a member of NATO and somewhat politically divided regarding the Russians. Do you honestly think getting enough small arms to Transnistria and motivating the Russian-speaking population in the rest of the country to rise up are problems too difficult for the Russians to solve? They’ve been meddling there for decades and continue to do so, so they know the area and which levers to pull. One move Genocide Joe could make that would send a message is to pressure Israel into extraditing the Moldovan Putin Puppet they’re shielding from the Moldovan criminal justice system. If the Moldovans are smart, they’ll figure out some way to join Romania as a quick route to NATO membership.
  6. DUDE! You've got that totally bass ackwards. Give it a try, and let us know what you think. That's because you're getting the safe for Minister's ears versions of everything. "He won't pick his socks up off the floor!" Translation: He can't get it up. Alternate translation: It's my go-to way to pick a fight so I don't have to listen to him whining about strawberry milk and a mop. (Only some of you will get that reference😁) "She's so damn unreasonable" Translation: She has the nerve to expect me to do the dishes once a week. Alternate translation: She won't do my Game of Thrones BDSM role-play!
  7. I'm far from an expert on QB evaluation, but Murray was obviously as big of a knucklehead as he is talented. IIRC, his teammates often weren't fans of his. In fairness, other than doing a Larry Michaels impersonation at a party, when has anyone legit been able to say something positive about this team in the past two decades? Maybe during Gibbs 2.0, but that's literally it. When they're telling the truth, it's not hating, it's just the truth. Let's see if things change if/when we're able to turn things around.
  8. I've been nervous about him from the beginning. I know the buzz about his athleticism, playmaking ability, and the relationships he's had over the years with NFL types but he strikes me as immature, a bit of a headcase, and the fumbleitis is particularly concerning. That said, with the buzz that we could land Kingsbury as OC, it would definitely be interesting. I'd hate to use a bunch of draft capital to go up one spot, but if Peters thinks he's the guy, I'm in.
  9. Actually, quite the opposite. You can learn a lot about a new manager by how they handle things when the plan goes bad. No plan survives first contact with the enemy intact. He was a highly touted candidate, but now we'll get to see what he's really got. Or he's....
  10. You got the air quotes around the wrong words. Here ya go… “retired/stepped down“. Yet another break with the past. Good for them/us.
  11. All the talk about MacD’s defense stopping the offensive candidates’ teams is almost nonsensical. That only proves he knows his Xs and Os and can lead a unit. Being a HC is a different deal. There are a lot more skills involved, not to mention the temperament and personality. We’ve seen any number of brilliant, successful coordinators on both sides of the ball be awful HCs. I think MacD will probably do well wherever he lands. That said, I’d prefer we go with Johnson or Slowik. Finding DCs is a hell of a lot easier than finding a new OC every few years. If the HC is calling the plays, or can do it if need be, it gives your team a real advantage in terms of continuity IMO.
  12. Sorry for dredging this up from the distant past but I’m so far behind in the thread that I’ll never catch up. As always, you make an excellent point. I don’t disagree with you at all. Assuming it wasn’t addressed by someone already, what generally isn’t taken into account in these early vs. late debates about QBs, or any position really is that it’s also a question of the quality of coaching and the organization. Would Purdy be the same player in a different system? Without Shanahan and his OCs, plus the other players around him? Some QBs are probably going to excel no matter where they land. However, I think most are dependent on how well they’re developed and the supporting cast. With Peters and hopefully Johnson running things, I like our chances of getting the right guy and giving him the best chances for success.
