Well its only a ‘controversy’ to people
who dont like Fisher/Snead or to people
who haven’t really understood the situation.

I mean, its just beyond-obvious what the situation
is: Keenum is the QB, until someone beats him out.
And someone may or may not beat him out. And we
dont even know who all the competitors will be yet.

Its not that complicated.

In a better and more just world
the Rams would have drafted Warren Beatty
instead of wasting a pick on Aaron Donald.
Warren Beatty would bring glamor to the position.
Which is what they need to Win,
in LA. I think Bert Jones and Joe Namath
proved that.

Frank and Hartman are both great,

Well those kindof rants are all based on this big “If”
that gets drowned out as the rant gets rolling.

He says, essentially “IF” Wentz is gonna be a big star
then trade lots of picks and go get him.

The problem of course, is no-one knows IF Wentz
is gonna be a bust or a star. No-one can tell the future
on that. He’s not Andrew Luck.

Just more national-media-fluff.

It bothers me that legatron doesn’t
seem to have any idea what the problem was
last year.
I mean, how’s he gonna fix it?

Well, i wonder if the moving-issues will
affect the won-loss record?

Will it affect the play on the field
of the Rams ?

Thot it was interesting, near the end of this audio
McShay said that for a long time the Patriots drafted
players from Rutgers and Florida cause they did studies
that showed those teams had systems that lead to
player-success in the NFL. Just a tidbit
i thot was inter esting

itz at about the 56 mark of this audio, fwiw

Have i ever mentioned how important Quinn is ?

Well, I’ll also mention something equally-obvious —
Gurley. If the gurley-man is healthy, I think Keenum
will do well enough. It’ll be ugly, but they can
win ten games with Keenum, Quinn and Gurley.

We’ve all seen less-than-stellar QBs win a lot
in this league. Kilmer, Dilfer,
Fitzpatrick, Haden, Dieter Brock, Kirk Cousins etc. Its a long list.

Obviously they still need to hit on a good QB
in the draft. I’m guessing they take one in the 2nd round.

I must say I am surprised Bernie has done so well.
I just assumed he would get the usual ‘green party 3 percent’.
Ya know. The Nader three percent. That sort of thing.
But to see him actually winning in places like Colorado and Minnesota —
that is just unreal to me. Yes, Clinton is going to win,
and it will be the Billionaire-right-winger vs the Corporate-Puppet,
but ‘something’ has changed in this country and not just on the Right.

There is simply no way, i would have predicted a socialist like Bernie
(i dont wanna quibble about what he is) would actually outright WIN
a number of states in Amerika.

A little hope in the Dark. Not a lot, but
still…a little. Perhaps, possibly, maybe…there
is hope for the Human species. Maybe, if they
dont completely destroy themselves in a thousand years….

I smile, and sigh,
and salute the Bern.

…now back to the destruction of the biosphere,
and all that is good and holy by the Usual suspects…

Oh, and fuck the South.

Chun: Would you expect that Hillary Clinton’s foreign policy would be different from President Obama’s?
Chomsky: Judging by the record, she is kind of hawkish—much more militant than the centrist democrats, including Obama. Take for instance Libya: she was the one pressing the hardest for bombing, and look at what happened. They not only destroyed the country, but Libya has become the center for jihad all over Africa and the Middle East. It’s a total disaster in every respect, but it does not matter. Look at the so-called global war on terror. It started in 15 years ago with a small cell in a tribal sector in Afghanistan. Now it is all over, and you can understand why. It’s about comparative advantage of force.
Chun: How about Bernie Sanders–what do you think his foreign policy will be?
Chomsky: He is doing a lot better than I expected, but he doesn’t have much to say about foreign policy. He is a kind of New Deal Democrat and focuses primarily on domestic issues.

Chun: Do you think that the Iran nuclear deal is a good thing?
Chomsky: I don’t think that any deal was needed: Iran was not a threat. Even if Iran were a threat, there was a very easy way to handle it–by establishing a Middle East Nuclear Weapons Free Zone, which is something that nearly everyone in the world wants. Iran has been calling for it for years, and the Arab countries support it. Everyone except the United States and Israel support it. The U.S. won’t allow it because it means inspecting Israel’s nuclear weapons. The U.S. has continued to block it, and in fact blocked it again just a couple of days ago; it just wasn’t widely reported. Iran’s nuclear program, as U.S. intelligence points out, is deterrent, and the bottom line is that the U.S. and Israel don’t want Iran to have a deterrent. In any case, it is better to have some deal than no deal, but it’s interesting that Obama picked the day of implementing of Iran deal to impose new sanctions on North Korea.

“….The Rams are unlikely to put all 92,000 seats up for sale for every game; they will most likely sell about 70,000 tickets on a regular basis, although there might be demand to sell thousands more for special dates like season openers….”

Why dont they want to sell as many tickets as they can?
