    Me too. A voter in NH interviewed on the radio said it best…”Bernie is the anti-trump”.

    Bernie is the least like Trump of any of the Dem candidates.

    A lot of people think that what Sanders and Trump have in common is that they both are at the extreme ends of their parties. But there’s nothing extreme about Trump’s views from a GOP perspective. He wants the same things they all want – deregulation, tax breaks for the rich, elimination of social programs…He’s just more brazen about it.

    It’s an Omaha-Ponca word that means “Grey Snow” and also “Drowsy Ones”.

    Not sure what that has to do with the election, but, you do you… 🙄

    I’m just hoping for a good game.

    And by good game I mean the 9ers losing by 40 pts.

    Fix the o-line and they’re contenders.

    Well, the amount of land required and methane burping is what puts cattle way ahead.

    Reducing the land needed to feed cattle is problematic. If we could engineer a cow to be really small, say about the size of a double cheeseburger, we could vastly reduce the amount of land required to feed them.

    Then people could raise their own burgers in their backyards.

    I’ve wondered that myself. The Ravens used Peters differently. He was the nickle corner for them. Maybe that allows him to freelance more which is what he likes to do.

    Wade likes press corners which Peters never was known for. As talented as he was he wasn’t really a fit so I wonder why they traded for him. I guess he was too talented to pass up.

    Those statements are usually uttered by those who socialism would help the most.

    Perhaps the biggest irony in human history is that the march against social programs is being led by the working class.

    Overall it sounds great if true.

    Thicker horns on the helmet? A prayer come true.

    But I’m not a fan of a matte finish for the helmets. I don’t like the way the Vikings helmets look.

    Trump’s advisers have maintained that they were operating on credible intelligence showing that Soleimani was involved in imminent plans to attack U.S. interests in a handful of countries.

    Even if it were true, why would killing Soleimani prevent or mitigate these alleged attacks?

    …

    That’s what struck me too. If there really was some kind of imminent attack planned, assassinating a general won’t stop it. If anything, it will make the attack far more likely, and perhaps expand its range.

    Aside from the moral/ethical component, it flat our seems stupid and pointless, strategically.

    Yeah, right. It’s not like D-Day wouldn’t have happened if Ike had a heart attack the day before.

    Well, of course it depends on who they replace him with but my initial reaction is this is a mistake.

    Especially if they replace him with Joe Barry.

    If Higbee has a 5th consecutive 100 yd game he will be the 1st TE to ever do that in NFL history.

    Wow, Higbee has a chance to become the Chris Massey of TEs.

    Speaking of Chris Massey, I think it’s a travesty that the NFL refuses to recognize the “yards long-snapped” statistic. He long-snapped for over 100 yds in 27 consecutive games but this accomplishment goes unheralded because of league prejudice against the snapping arts.

    I see the Vikings are starting Mannion at QB, so they must be resting their starters.

    I think it would be fun if both the Cowboys and Eagles lose. That means the Eagles would win the division at 7-9.

    I think the Rams are close to contending again. Mainly have to buttress the o-line a bit.

    Other things I’d like to see happen…

    1. Add an offensive coordinator to help McVay
    2. Get a real QB coach

    Shame they’ll probably lose Fowler. He really came into his own this season.

    Ironically, I think it will make it even harder to beat him. He’ll use it to whip up his base into a frenzy.

    Well, sometimes the other team just plays lights out. Dallas is talented and they played awesome ball. They can beat anyone when they play like that.

    As far as the Rams, we know what their fatal-flaw is. The defense may have some weird mystery games now and then, but we know where the problem really is.

    Can they fix the OLine next year?

    FWIW someone on twitter said that Phillips’ defense needs one of those big, immovable NTs. He said that’s what he had in other places where his defense was dominant.
