that is not true ER. numbers mean nothing in themselves you have to interpret them. you and I interpret the reasons for the record differently

I interpret the 65 games coached by Fisher as 65 games coached by Fisher. You can argue your interpretation and I am pulling for you and your happiness on this but the number 65 is not open to interpretation.

Yes things have to be interpreted. For example you have already done that. You have interpreted the record as being a direct result of Fisher’s coaching. I don’t.

I interpret the 1st 2 years as a result of rebuilding plus losing a starting qb.

I interpret the next 2 years as being an example of what happens when a team does not have a starting qb AND has issues with the OL.

Given how I see that, 7-9 in 2015 was actually quite an achievement. That is, it doesn’t matter who the coach is if all you have for 2 years is BOTH no qb (only #2 types plus a starter who fell apart and melted down) AND big issues with the OL (injuries, and then inexperience PLUS injuries). I cannot think of any team that won under those dual conditions.

So numbers are not real…they are always the products of interpretation.

YOu look at the numbers and say see, bad coach.

I look at the numbers and say see, what do you expect when they have that kind of double problem.

You think (it seems) it’s natural and inevitable that the coach is the final cause and source of blame for that.

I think it;s natural and inevitable that any coach would have problems if they faced that kind of double problem for 2 years running.

.

I hear you Zn but it’s not my argument . I am fully aware of your ability to talk me down of ledge year after year and I admire that quality. The sample size is not 1 game. I don’t deny injuries play their part and Fisher is not at fault for everything in every game every season and there have been some great games for which I give Fisher his due but sometimes it does come down to coaching. Last night he said he didn’t expect that out of them, the same thing he said after the vikes crushed us at home on the opener in 14′. If he doesn’t expect it why do I ?The roster has changed dramatically since those days but the team that showed up last night was the same team that showed up in 2014 and I do interpret that to be the coach.

It’s not just one game it’s 65 games now.

I don’t look at it that way at all.

The “why not” is a longer response, and so will have to wait.

No explanation necessary Zn but the number is a fact and not a perception.You look at it differently because you can and it works for you.

It’s not just one game it’s 65 games now. I sure don’t need to see another game like that one
in my life time.The fact that they have rebounded after poor performance time after time makes it worse.This team is an undisciplined inconsistent mess. The only constant has been losses like this and coach Jeff Fisher. If you want to go to the home opener there are still seats available from $175.00 to $225.00.

10-4 good buddy. I went back and listened to the post game from the opener vs. viking from 2014 and I really wished I hadn’t .

I predict the Rams are shut out 28 to 0

His philosophy of keeping it close and somebody making a play to win it is a recipe for disaster . That and evaluating WRs .

I read the media’s versions first and then watched. Defense looked pretty damn good and is it just me or did Williams bring a little extra after Zimmer called him dirty last year on Joyner’s hit on Bridgewater ? Zimmer looked like he was crying on the sidelines after both his QB’s took that beating. Morgan Fox who I had never heard of looked unblockable. I didn’t think Goff was terrible. The int looked like a fluke to me and they didn’t give him too much to work with. That throw to Britt was freakish. Thomas might have just cut Quick who looked terrible again. Two muffed punts and KR TD special teams not looking well.

They let us take deer we hit here most of the time anyway. You hit a moose though and you’re lucky if you’re not seriously injured yourself.

I actually watched their preseason games and they look horrible. That of course means squat but Palmer looked much worse than his back up did and the OL was not good at all.

I don’t see anyone stopping this run game. The D doesn’t look right just yet. I watched live on Game Pass and had to listen to K.C announcers just awful . It was like they wouldn’t even mention a Rams player’s name and holding interviews during the game completely ignoring the Rams play.Worse than the infamous preseason Browns game a few years back.

The problem for me is if I were to ever vote the lesser of two evils I would have to vote Trump. It’s really not even close . Trump has a record of failing at whatever he does. Hillary has done terrible things , Iraq, Libya , Syria ,Honduras , Haiti, the Ukraine and lot’s more. Trump talks about using nukes/ Hillary referring to nukes says nothing is off the table. Trump denies Climate Change , Hillary has promoted fracking all over the world and a tar sands oil pipeline
right here at home. You know the US has killed 1.3 million Muslims over a 5 year span with Hillary’s support , meanwhile Trump screwed some would be con men out of money at Trump U. Also a Trump presidency would last maybe 4 years, Clinton and the DNC blatantly cheated in the primary and got off scot-free, if she is not stopped now we’re looking at 8 years of this shit.

That’s an interesting take and I can’t say I disagree with your premise that Hillary has done worse things over her political career than Trump has as a slimy business tycoon. However, her position and power gave her the ability to do greater evil. I think if Trump had that power he’d do even worse things. I guess that’s what this election is about – choosing between a known evil and a potentially greater evil.

What about the Supreme Court? If Trump is elected we could have a conservative SC for the next 30 years.

Honestly all the Supreme Court means to me is whether I prefer an AK/AR or an abortion. I do not believe we have 30 years to worry about if the status quo is maintained for 8 more years.

Margaret Davidson, NOAA’s senior advisor for coastal inundation and resilience science and services, and Michael Angelina, executive director of the Academy of Risk Management and Insurance, offered their take on climate change data in a conference session titled “Environmental Intelligence: Quantifying the Risks of Climate Change.”

RIMS16_conference logoDavidson said recent data that has been collected but has yet to be made official indicates sea levels could rise by roughly 3 meters or 9 feet by 2050-2060, far higher and quicker than current projections. Until now most projections have warned of seal level rise of up to 4 feet by 2100.

These new findings will likely be released in the latest sets of reports on climate change due out in the next few years.

“The latest field data out of West Antarctic is kind of an OMG thing,” she said.

The problem is she’s an MD. and is not an anti-vac. She is anti corporate control over drug safety which is a good thing. Science ? The science on mercury is undeniable , it is not healthy and there is no reason beside big Pharma’s profit margin to be dosing children with the shit. Why do you think Monsanto fights so hard against labeling GMOs ? Those who want to eat Glyphosate can eat all they want but the fact is if they labeled it nobody would buy it on
purpose. The yield bs Golden rice was going to save the world for the last 15 years , talk about junk science. Capitalism is not good science. It doesn’t boost yield it pollutes heirloom seed stock, that’s what it was designed for to monopolize the world’s food source for profit.
If you doubt this I have a challenge for you try to find some non GMO Glyphosate free corn. It is in every fucking thing including indigenous peoples breast milk.

Mercury is used in medicines to prevent bacterial contamination. Mercury is dangerous because it remains in your body and can build to toxic levels. Not all mercury is the same though. Mercury in the form of thimersol is/was used in vaccines (it’s no longer used in children’s vaccines). Thimersol does not remain in the body so there’s no buildup and therefore it does no harm as studies have shown.

I’m not going to get into yet another discussion about GMO vs Organics. I’ll just leave this here. Read it if you want.

That’s not my debate Nittany, My question is why does Monsanto fight so hard against labeling GMO’s ?

Kush needs to play OG especially in LA , OG Kush
