It's a lot no doubt, though it probably won't happen. The Dems are probably going to gain at least one house. I also doubt it would be every adult in the country. I am sure there would have to be some sort of qualifier attached. I wouldn't want it to be a very high bar to meet, but wouldn't want people walking down the street handing checks to every crackhead sleeping on the sidewalks.

It would probably be cheaper in the long run over Medicare for all, free tuition, so on and so forth.

I don't want one party. I just don't want a party who opens the door to communists. I do see a bit of hope as the DEM leaders are trying to back off the communist agenda as they see it is starting to devour them. I hope it isn't too late. Most times it's harder to undo what has been done.

Bub Means Business.

Much depends on the coach. Some don't want the QB to make tackles. I suppose those on the board who don't want a QB who won't tackle also don't want those who run out of bounds or those who slide rather than try for every yard possible. Every yard counts, right?

Maybe we should work the QB's on the sled for a portion of practice, maybe run a few Oklahoma drills.

Corruption at it's finest ... but the MAGA fanboys are more worried about a ficticisous narrative about voting .... and then of course, no-one has mentioned the Epstein Files and how up to half of the documents that were ordered/supposed to be released are still unreleased. MURICA ! FREEDUMB !!

Nothing in your post is true or factual.

Guards are now only one half game out of first in the Central.

RIP GM; you will be missed

Attorney General Todd Blanche on Sunday did not commit to acting independently of President Trump, but he claimed the president has not and will not ask him to prosecute specific individuals.

Trump publicly pressured AG Bondi to take action against Democratic Senator Adam Schiff, New York Attorney General Letitia James, and former FBI Director James Comey. Trump directed the DOJ and FBI to investigate Democrats tied to Jeffrey Epstein, including former President Bill Clinton, Larry Summers, and Reid Hoffman. Trump, in an executive order signed Thursday, directed Attorney General Pam Bondi to investigate allegations that Republicans have raised that ActBlue allows illegal campaign donations.


“There’s a big difference between saying we will always do our job and investigate any case and act independently of the White House. No, I’m not going to pledge that. And no attorney general should ever pledge that,” Blanche told host Kristen Welker on NBC News’s “Meet the Press.”

He later said, “If I were to pledge, I will be independent of the White House, what that means is that if President Trump says, ‘I want the Department of Justice to go after every violent criminal in this country’ — which is what he has said — what you’re saying to me is I should say, ‘No, sir, I’m not going to do it.’”

That would simply be him asking you to do your job. Not go after his political enemies or make purely political decisions and prosecutions based on politics alone.

Blanche also said he would “of course” take the president’s view into consideration before taking action, noting he hoped “every attorney general in history would not answer that question differently.”

Since taking over at the Justice Department in an acting capacity, Blanche has overseen the department’s prosecution of former FBI Director James Comey — who was fired by Trump during his first term — over an alleged threat to the president.

Comey, a frequent critic of Trump, denied threatening the president via his Instagram post of a photo depicting “86 47” written out in seashells on a beach.

Blanche also signed off on the creation of a $1.776 billion “anti-weaponization” fund as part of the president’s settlement agreement with the IRS.

Under that agreement, Blanche ordered the IRS to never again probe the taxes of Trump, his family members or his businesses — despite the tax agency falling under the Treasury Department. A federal judge has since reopened the president’s lawsuit against the IRS.

The Justice Department scrapped the fund amid bipartisan backlash on Capitol Hill, with Blanche officially rescinding his initial order earlier this month in exchange for Republican Sens. John Cornyn (Texas) and Thom Tillis (N.C.) supporting his confirmation.

The Senate confirmed Blanche via a 50-49 vote last weekend, and Trump’s former personal attorney was sworn in as the full-time attorney general on Aug. 10.

When Welker asked Blanche what he would do if the president asked him to cross an “ethical or legal line,” the attorney general dismissed the possibility.

“The president will never ask me to do something unethical or illegal. He never has. He never will,” Blanche said Sunday.

The attorney general later remarked, “The president does not expect any of his leaders, including me, to just say yes to him no matter what he says. And so of course, there’s vigorous back and forth with every Cabinet member of the president of the United States, which is exactly what President Trump expects.”

“Again, there is this extraordinarily false narrative that the president wakes up in the morning and calls me and says, ‘Todd, go prosecute X or Y.’ He does not do that. He has never done that. He will never do that,” he added.

Once again......

The president previously urged Blanche’s predecessor, former Attorney General Pam Bondi, to speed up the prosecutions of multiple of his perceived enemies last year.

Somber day today. This memorial will put a lump in your throat. Tough stories of loss and legacies left behind. Kids who then couldn't understand, now standing here telling missing parents about their grandchildren. First responders smiling down on another generation taking the oath to serve and protect.

Let's not ever forget that this wasn't about planes and towers, it was about the thousands who wake up every day with broken hearts and a sinking pit in their stomachs. They still can't, and never will, reckon what happened on that day.

There are weapons.

Guys who started last year on the OL have been cut or are now second string. They have to be better. Q is healthy.

We have capable receivers and fine young TE.

DW does not need to be miraculous.

What a crock. Another rule change after michigan was handed a win on a blown call. Just last year against Minnesota, the refs wrongly called Minnesota offsides on an onside kick with 1:37 left that nearly put them in field goal range down 3. You could see the ref with his hand on the flag ready to throw it. It wasn't close to being off sides. The Big 10 instituted a rule change on this one too. I'm not a tinfoil hat guy, but all this crap that benefits a crooked, cheating ttun sure doesn't pass the smell test.

I thought something was up. That post didn't sound like you at all. Hope everything gets worked out.

In August, had an historical event in Colorado Springs. The National museum of World War 2 Aviation hosted 3 SB2C Helldivers. The only 3 in the world that fly. They did a sunrise flight along with a B-25, then a second flight around noon. Seeing 4 WW2 planes startup, taxi and sit in line waiting for takeoff was quite a sight.

that one should work ... sorry new to this

Lmao… politicians would have to pass this. Find one on either side that never lies.

I'm not entirely sure what to make of the Jaguars. They ended on an 8 game winning streak in the regular season, but it was the opposite of a murderer's row. LAC (Lance replaced Herbert in game behind an OL mash unit), @ARI, @TEN, IND (Riley Leonard mostly at QB), NYJ, @DEN, @IND (off the couch Rivers at QB), TEN.

Re Hines-Allen specifically how much are his numbers about him being good vs the OTs he faced being "bad" and vice versa? How much were Ersery and Dan Moore Jr being "bad" about Hines-Allen (and the Texans DEs) being good? I can't say I watched much any of the Jaguars. Only thing that stands out in my recollection is the kicker booting bombs.

Personally, I think the biggest matchup for the Browns is probably Watson vs himself. Whether he can win that one when it counts now remains to be seen.

I get what you're saying but often times teams that are mismatched do give QB's opportunities they do not get against better opponents. It's much easier for a QB to do the things you speak of when they are comfortable, not pressured and have more time in the pocket. When you're not being pressured your game will flow in your own comfort zone. Not saying that's the case here because I didn't watch the game.

If you play a much weaker team your WR's aren't facing top end defenders. It makes it much easier for your WR's to get open than they may be against much better opponents. Your OL isn't facing top tier DL and LB's which also makes their jobs easier to protect the QB.

Top CB's, DL, OL and every position on the field whose aspiration and talent makes their goal playing in the NFL go to schools where they get the most attention and the most exposure. Many of those who don't go to the top schools do so because they aren't sure they could win the starting position so it's easier for them to be starters and get more exposure at a smaller school than sitting on the bench at a better school.

It does make it easier to see what they can and will do when they're in their comfort zone. What their natural tendencies are when you have the luxury of playing against inferior players. It doesn't tell you what they will do when their teams talent has to face similar talent and they're thrown out of their comfort zones. How a QB will react or what he may revert to when his WR's don't get open on a regular basis and he has to throw into traffic more often. How his mechanics may change when regularly pressured. How he reacts when he has to lead his team on late, game winning drives. The judge of a great QB is how they react when the heat is on. You don't win it all in the NFL based on playing inferior teams.

And yes you can bring up Josh Allan. On rare occasions even QB's who play on lower tier teams can develop into more. It's just not a very common occurrence.

I could care less what Monken's "Type" is. The QB will more than likely out last Monken.

As for his career, he inherited Jameis Winson, he inherited Baker Mayfield and he inherited Lamar Jackson.. I don't see a pattern, except he coached what he was given.

I want the best possible player to build an offense around, not just a type to run Monken's offense.

I don't expect a lot out of this season. It depends heavily on this rebuilt O-line as you already mentioned. It typically takes some games to gel when you get a new guy or two.. they have 5 who have never played together. If they can learn to play effectively early, we could get some surprise wins if the QB doesn't lose games for us.

I agree, growth is the most important ingredient here, nothing helps a young QB more than an experienced team around him...

I certainly am not honing in on Manning though, too much talent at the college level right now to focus on one player.
