Washington 42 Philadephia 63. We score tds on our first 3 possessions and the Eagles first 3 possessions (2 pick 6's and a fumble recovery for td) to go up 42-0 at half. Then give up 9 unanswered tds in the second half.

It should be a command prompt. Always a chance with the right input, things will go like you want.....but with bad input.............just another prompt. Certainly do identify with feeling like this team has been putting the wrong commands in for years but always hoping the right command...... > > > > >

just sayin'

cuz he is like those damn bread sticks....sooooooo goooood you keep asking for more!

i saw the DRC article, that is correct.

@Jumbo That is some very funny stuff, especially the last paragraph!

Illegal block in the back, illegal hands to the face, offensive PI, illegal batting of the ball(I think I have seen this 1 time in the last 20 years) are the ones that stick in my mind.

You know good and well, if he answered that way, and then it was discovered or shown he spoke to someone that he didn't know was part of the firm they would label him a liar/perjurer or say that he "should have known" and thus is equally disqualified. That is the state of the gotcha games on both sides of the isle right now. His answer is designed very specifically to rule out that potential. It is a deliberate safe move through a potential mine field. If he didn't go that route, it would call into question his intellect.

Try reading 1 more paragraph. Our ruling Gutierrez said that “hundreds of Republican amendments were adopted” during the drafting of the 2010 health care law. His statement has some basis, because Republican amendments were adopted in both the House and the Senate during the legislative process. Most of these amendments were not particularly meaningful, though, so calling it a bipartisan enactment effort remains a stretch (my emphasis). Bottom line, any Republican amendments didn't do anything to stop the effort of the Democratic side to move "healthcare" into a forced failure of the insurance industry and closer to the single payer system which is the ultimate goal. I know it is nasty to hear, but yes, single payer is the goal and that is socialism.

I forgot, hyperbole can only be used to refute anything I say. Why are you claiming 49? Because highly partisan tabloids slate and salon tell you?

Salon and Slate are not exactly non-partisan in their pieces. http://www.ajc.com/news/national-govt--politics/politifact-did-obamacare-pass-with-republican-input/xCU3lpUUWS8HOk20lUpyyL/ For example, 788 amendments were submitted during the ACA’s markup in the Senate Committee for Health, Education, Labor and Pensions committee (HELP). Three quarters of them were filed by the committee’s Republican members, according to John McDonough in his book Inside National Health Reform. Of those, 161 were adopted in whole or revised form. Yet as we reported at the time, those amendments were mostly technical. Only two of those Republican amendments were passed via roll-call vote. One of these amendments required members of Congress and congressional staff to enroll in the government-run option and the other involved biologics medication. So let's agree some changes were accepted on the technicalities side, but substantively not really. My 0 was wrong, and your 49 also not right.

You crack me up. Talking to your supporters while replying to me. Classic attempt at demeaning. You would be willing to have the conversation, but not with the one person on this board who doesn't agree with you politically. Carry on with your belittling and dismissing differing political opinions. Mob mentality continues to rule the day.

Legislatively, the biggest example is Obama's ACA. Passed without any allowance for republican amendments or discussion. Passed without releasing to the public for comment. Nancy Pelosi's famous quote, "You'll have to pass it to see what is in it." Passed with 0 republican votes. Changing Senate rules and the use, by Harry Reid, of the "nuclear option" for approving judicial nominees.

Yeah, so this was my thought, before you posted. -Dav87sc

Back to topic of the OP, it will be interesting to see just how/if things settle out between now and Veterans Day, Nov 12, when there is a call for a boycott of all things NFL by group on facebook. http://pittsburgh.cbslocal.com/2017/09/27/nfl-boycott-veterans-day-weekend/ This is almost a month old by the date of the article, and they had 70k supporters then. Couldn't find any updated #s. What impact do you think that will have on the players and/or owners?
