Riggo-toni

It's mostly not my neighborhood - we had a different rep in 2018, but then they gerrymandered us into her district. Her base is an hour away in Rome GA, aka Redneckistan. I live just a short walk outside of Marietta.

I cannot express enough how embarrassed I am that that stupid Karen-ass **** reps my district.

Oh ok, I guess I got those mixed up. Both ended up being solid value, especially Allen.

Micro Penix would be a top 3 pick if not for the injuries, but I would be terrified of drafting him. On the other hand, we got away with a steal in Jon Allen falling in the draft because of health (heart) concerns. Curtis Martin was injured all 4 years of his college career, but ended up being a workhorse up to his 30s. Fred Taylor earned a reputation for being brittle, but at the end of his career was healthy and productive for several years.

Hail to the Commies Hail KGB Brave proletariat Fight the bourgeoisie!

Better that you went on a tanned gent than you came on a tanned gent....not that there's anything wrong with that.

Agreed. He was very inconsistent. It would have been nice to see what he could have done if he had Gibbs as his coach for his career rather than Allen who just wanted to avoid turnovers, or Pardee - who thought Riggins was best suited to be a blocking back. Too bad he didn't retire after 84. Schroeder+ Rogers would have gotten us deep into the playoffs in 85.

Yeah, I completely agree. Outside of Fareed Zakaria GPS, most news shows are just hot air competing for viewers. ABC needs to get rid of Donna Brazile and Reince Priebus and find a new generation of George Will and David Brinkley.

warning:nsfw language.

I am hoping we can draft Tagovailoa on the 3rd day of the draft.

If I were rich, I might pre-order one of these...

He was perfect in Officer and a Gentleman.

Hate to say it, but this family is the poster child for eugenics.

McCain wanted to pick him as his running mate in 2008, and that jackass Bill Kristol told him there would be a riot at the RNC if he didn't pick a pro life Christian conservative, and pointed him instead to Sarah "Dan Quayle with tits" Palin.

Apologies - Bad wording on my part. I should have said decided not to pursue charges, not dropped, as charges were not actually filed. And it was the election commission that chose not to press charges.

But he wasn't. The previous DA dropped the case.

Of the 4 criminal cases against Trump, it truly sucks ass that the only one that will go a jury before the election is also the only one where he will almost certainly be acquitted. We've already seen this play out with John Edwards. The statute if limitations already ran out on the crime Trump actually committed (falsifying business records), so the convoluted and unprecedented legal theory of claiming it was part of a federal conspiracy to defraud an election falls apart the minute he uses the Edwards defense - that the payment wasn't about votes but about keeping his wife from finding out. The other 3 cases are comically open and shut and should have gone to trial a year ago (or more). The NY one is the only one that is being driven purely by politics, and the inevitable acquittal means a gullible public will discount the other cases as a result.

Russia has been propping up Syrian dictator Assad, who is an Alawite - a heterodox splinter group of Shia islam for whom Ibn Tawmiyyah (the medieval scholar who is the basis for salafist/jihadist ideology) issued a fatwa demanding their extermination. ISIS views holding territory in areas of Syria (I think Raqqah, but am going off memory) as essential to re-establishing the caliphate and bringing about the end of times.

Contrary to GOP talking points, the problem with domestic oil prices is not that the government is preventing drilling; it's that the refining capacity built up in the 70s and 80s was for heavy sour crude, but since the fracking revolution we are pumping out light sweet crude. Oil companies can make more money exporting the light sweet, so domestic prices are still subject to global prices. Forget drill baby drill and come up with incentives for the big oil oligopoly to expand American refining capacity.

As much as I hated the guy as an owner, he did have a reputation for generosity to charities.
