i don’t know specifically streep’s background.
but there are a lot of artists, especially in hollywood, who were born with a silver spoon. they come from hollywood families. and sometimes just artistic families who were wealthy. i can name a bunch off the top of my head. they don’t come from humble beginnings. they have no clue.
and likewise there are probably conservatives who come from humble beginnings. not trump obviously. but they are there.
and that’s not even to say that that would even qualify them as being able to relate to what most people go through.
and even beyond that most people are not going to look at that crowd and think well they come from where i come from (if they even do). they’re going to see a bunch of elite rich liberals going to their stupid post-award parties having no clue how hard it is to survive. shit. i have no clue how hard it is to be honest. compared to most people.
but i also agree that trump for some bizarre reason is able to tap into that anger even though he too is part of that elite class. i don’t know why people don’t see that. it baffles me. well i do i think. it’s cuz he’s a white heterosexual male. and almost anyone who isn’t that will relate to the other side. that’s the only difference to me.
So all that can be deduced from my experience is that your style of moderating is overzealous at best, prejudicial at worst.
i find zn to be a fair person. i don’t think it’s fair to say that.
i will say this. i plan on coming over to this side of the board more often. and i will say the same as zn. stick to the issue. don’t attack the poster.
now i’m not saying that you are doing that specifically. but i do plan on paying more attention to that in the future.
I mean look at the people in that room with Streep — would you guess most working class voters identify with the folks in that room?
this. i mean i agree with a lot of what she says, but she’s as much of a part of the “liberal elite” as trump is a part of the “conservative elite”.
so really i doubt she has much more of a clue as to what’s wrong with this country than trump.
maybe i’m wrong. i don’t know. but i’m tired of it all. it seems like the rich control the dems and the reps. and everyone else really don’t count for much at all.
matt patricia intrigues me as well. he’s smart for sure. not sure how that translates to being a football coach. can’t hurt though.
his background includes playing offensive line. he was also an ol coach for some time. again. not sure if that helps having experience on the other side as well.
well i guess it depends on what the market research says.
cuz certainly having all 32 teams move to la wouldn’t work. my hunch is moving 2 teams move to a city at virtually the same time might not make the most sense from a money standpoint. 2 teams competing for fans, ticket sales, merchandising, corporate sponsorship… i don’t know…
my guess. and it’s only a guess. is the nfl would prefer to have the chargers in san diego. and just one team in la for now.
That doesn’t make sense other than wishful thinking from a $tanK toadie?
it doesn’t make sense for the chargers or the rams or the nfl to have the chargers move to los angeles. especially financially.
i’m thinking spanos stays and tries to get a stadium built in san diego. that’s my guess.
Didn’t make sense to leave St. Louis but they did. Chargers moving to LA was a concession the NFL got from $tanK to make his new stadium available to Spanos. To the NFL the Chargers move to LA does make sense.
from the standpoint of the nfl it made perfect sense for them to move. it was about money. stan has more of it than almost any other owner and a team in la meant more money in all their pockets.
unfortunate but true.
hekker is excellent.
i think trujo could be pro bowl caliber but not excellent.
ogletree could be pro bowl caliber but not excellent.
hav, donnal. solid perhaps? tj too.
tavon. serviceable? lance as well.
goff and gurley? who knows at this point. if they are busts, it really will be a rebuild.
well what would be the strength without the defensive ends?
Special Teams.
