Considering how it's being reported that the Texans actually helped Deshaun Watson in his sexual assaults by providing him with both hotel rooms and NDAs to provide to the massage therapists, does this mean that us arguing over whether or not a fan memorial for Sean Taylor is a good or bad thing means we're improving as an organization? lol...

You're spot on. I get a kick out of watching you guys Attempting to defend a flailing administration.

 

So this fly will exit the party now....

 

 

Only to return for the most greatest barbeque of all. The inevitable defeat of the Democrats in the midterm elections. Joe Biden will be a lame duck president and the worst in modern history.

 

Then I will return for the defeat of Democrats in 2024.

 

But keep on dunking on conservative Twitter posts and crying about Trump.

 

Russia Russia Russia! Racist Racist Racist! Stop the Ultra Mega MAGAs! Who cares about approval ratings and polling telling us we're gonna lose historically bad! Not us!

This has to be a joke...right? There's no way you can be this obtuse and still work a keyboard...

Wanna have some fun, if you remember Chuck Barris, read his autobiography "Confessions of a Dangerous Mind", in which he comes out as a wet work specialist for the CIA in the 60s using his cover of a game show producer to travel around and do his dirty work.
True? 
Who knows. But it sure is a trip.

Wasn't this a movie with Sam Rockwell as Chuck Barris?...

For all those that complained about Trump's days spent on the golf course: president Joe Biden has spent a total of over 550 days away from the white house at his various vacation properties. The most time spent away from the white house by any president in the modern era.

 

Not a great look by a President with historically low approval ratings.

 

-Shut down our Keystone Pipeline, but greenlight Russia's Pipeline

- Then blame historically high gas prices on Russia's conflict even though they were high before it began 

- Attempting to take away American's guns but left millions of dollars of guns in Iraq, all while spending billions of American taxpayer dollars on arming Ukraine with guns as well.

-has done nothing to improve the conditions of the supply chain crisis, inflation at record levels with a recession likely.

- Attempts to label the republicans "Ultra-Magas" ...backfires horribly, supplies tons of revenue via merchandise sales as it becomes a rallying cry (Deplorables 2.0)

-Sons laptop was "Russian disinformation".... When in reality it is more serious dirt than anything ever accused of President Trump.

- Staff members and party members in general quitting at record numbers to abandon this dumpster fire of a sinking ship

 

The party of the pseudo-intellectuals and latte-liberals is doing a fantastic job. Can't wait for this "Sewer" to rise into a massive red Tsunami that hands the Democrats the worst defeat they have ever seen at midterm elections in November. But hey, at least you guys got a lot done during Bidens 1st and only term.

 

Super Ultra Mega MAGA lol.

 

You’re trying way too hard, son…you need to reassess your trolling strategy.

I was born in ‘73 so not a ton of memories but this clip begs the question, was everybody just tripping balls in the ‘70s?

Did people put acid in their coffee in the morning like we use sugar?

This clip makes me think yes

It was the 70s, man...

Ever-so-slightly NSFW...but yeah, loved this show and especially this segment whenever it came on:

Its already hard to win in the NFL. If your gonna shell out that kind of money to one position, they have to give you at least good R.O.I. or your practically stuck in the water before you begin. 

 

Wentz is doing exactly that as he is the 6th highest paid QB this year. If he is gonna cost us multiple other players, you gotta get that return from somewhere.

This has Wentz as the 10th highest paid QB this year:

I think Alex catches more of a break because his teams won. Even with the ‘skins, as awful as he was, he led us to our best record in years (6/3). On the other hand, Kirk’s teams always felt like they fell short. 
 

That may not be fair, but winning erases stink and changes perceptions. 

Well, winning is the goal...and the QB position requires a helluva lot more from the player than pretty throws in order to win the game.

Back when the Cousins thread was still open, I quoted some article that basically said Kirk trusts his process more than he trusts his play-makers (he actually said as much, although he didn't realize that was what he was saying lol). Not trusting his playmakers is an element that I think hinders Kirk too often. On the flip side you have someone like Heinicke who trusts his play-makers more than he trusts his arm--"just get it in Terry's vicinity and let him go get it." With someone like Romo, what hindered him (beyond getting the yips at the absolute worst times) was a complete lack of game situational awareness. He'd treat being down by 3 pts with three minutes to go as if he's down by 7 with 30 seconds to go. And what helps someone like Alex Smith is just a strong understanding of how the offense is supposed to work and making sure everyone else on the field does as well from play to play. That can calm teammates down and help them focus better--I think Mclaurin was the one who said that with Alex, you always feel as if you know exactly what's going to happen. I always assumed that meant not only what's going to happen on offense but also on defense, like Smith is savvy enough and experienced enough to spot things in real time that the offense can exploit, and tells his offensive teammates what to expect.

A long time ago some Dallas sportswriter said the trap that Dallas fans get caught up in is thinking Romo's gaudy stats are all that matters, and minimized the QB areas he's deficient in as unimportant to winning. We do that more than a bit here as well (as do all fan bases, I imagine).

With modern offenses, I honestly don't think there's much of a difference anymore...

that seems to be the new going price for elite QBs, thanks to Aaron Rodgers

 

Not to mention Deshaun Watson's fully-guaranteed 5yr/$230M contract...

Tangent to our QB search this off-season…this could have been us:

More video of Louie Gohmert...

Dammit, should have made it Heinicke instead lol...

Is it just a coincidence that almost every psychopath listed on this thread gets away with their crimes? Does that make the character more memorable?

I'm pretty fascinated with movie psychopaths for some reason...seeing "We Need To Talk About Kevin" and "One Hour Photo" listed got me thinking of lesser known characters I thought were done well, although they may not be clinical psychopaths but something definitely off with all of them (you can guess the movies for ****s and giggles lol):

Can I also say that Michael Rooker has creeped me the **** out in every role he's done since seeing him in this movie lol...

In case anyone is interested lol...

Anton Chigurh from 'No Country for Old Men' voted "most realistic psychopath ever"

https://faroutmagazine.co.uk/anton-chigurh-no-country-for-old-men-most-realistic-psychopath/

"...forensic psychiatrist Samuel Leistedt names the performance as the most realistic depiction of the mental illness in all of cinema. “They don’t know what an emotion is,” the psychiatrist stated in a real-life study that led Leistedt and his colleague Paul Linkowski to spend three years watching 400 movies in search of the most realistic depiction of psychopaths in cinema. 

Reporting that depictions of psychopaths have gotten more realistic over time, Leistedt and Linkowski reported in the Journal of Forensic Sciences, modern versions provide a “compelling glimpse into the complex human psyche”. Noting No Country for Old Men as containing the very best portrayal, the psychiatrist recognised that the character “does his job and he can sleep without any problems. In my practice I have met a few people like this”. 

Making a real-life comparison to two professional hitmen that he had previously interviewed, Leistedt stated that Chigurh reminds him of such a mental state, adding, “They were like this: cold, smart, no guilt, no anxiety, no depression”. 

With his own twisted set of morals, Chigurh kills without purpose or mercy, representing an insidious phantom of modern America who stalks the land with genuine psychopathic tendencies.

Im pretty sure that was just a typical kids birthday party in the ‘70s

When I was 10 years old I went to a classmate's birthday party (all boys). We all ended up going to his room...and there were Playboy centerfold pics hanging up all over his walls.

*sniff*...the 70s, man...
