ZooeyModeratorFWIW…Collinsworth makes me cringe. I mute the TV when he is talking. I know everybody has their “thing” when it comes to announcers, and it’s totally subjective, etc. But I cannot listen to Collinsworth.
ZooeyModeratorI expect to watch a game like last night’s against Seattle. They should cut through them. Anything less suggests that last night’s game was…not a fluke, exactly, but…a fluke.
ZooeyModeratorI think many people have suspected these things for years and it is nice to have it documented with real quotes from insiders. But at the end of the day, the country doesn’t care.
===================
Yeah, I had typed a sentence in my post about the public not caring, but I deleted it. I didnt want to beat a dead, decayed, maggoty, maimed, disfigured, very sad horse.
This nation jumped the shark. I dont know when exactly, but its done jumped the shark.
And I’ll say that even if Bernie wins the election. The deep-state is what it is.

vYeah, I was thinking something kinda ironic yesterday…Bernie, and the Green New Deal. Like…it’s GND or die, and it may be too late anyway, even if we get the GND.
But I was thinking…at best, Bernie can save the planet. But he CAN’T save America. The forces of Greed have learned propaganda techniques that work, and there is no antidote. America is over.
I’m leaving, btw. I can’t take it anymore, and I’m out. I’ve got about 3 more years of work before I reach my maximum “multiplier” for my retirement pension, and I’m leaving shortly after I hit the nexus between my age and that multiplier. After I hit that mark, there is less incentive to keep working. I’m going to go set up my life in a different country, probably moving from one country to the next, until I become feeble, or I die, whichever comes first. But I am basically done here. I am seeking a divorce from the United States of America.
ZooeyModeratorI think the Rams are back.
May be too late for this season, but we’ll see.
If they get in – who wants to face them?
That was my thought, too.
But they are going to have to win all three games, and that includes beating the 9ers in SF.

ZooeyModeratorWell…goes without saying that certain posters on this board will have no difficulty rooting for Seattle tonight anyway.

ZooeyModeratorIt’s not too little, but it is too late.
December 1, 2019 at 11:33 am in reply to: the one-shot tweets thread (diff'rent stuff, funny angry interesting) #108821ZooeyModeratorJoe Biden gave a speech. Perhaps the most bizarre speech I’ve ever heard. I sincerely hope he’s well. If he is, and this is just how he gives speeches, then I’d advise that he not give speeches anymore. pic.twitter.com/jfIsDGQ4cn

ZooeyModeratorSo I don’t know how the loss of Micah Kiser fully accounts for the failure of the defense to keep the opponent out of the end zone.
And the offense is looking very Fisherlike. The Ravens had enough points to win this game seven minutes in.
This team has plummeted from “Star-Studded, Genius-led Turbine of Excitement” to “WTF Was That?” very quickly.
Well…here we are at the end of November, doing what Rams fans do: watching games in anticipation of the draft, and next year.
Happy Thanksgiving, everybody.

Since 1978, only three teams have allowed under 150 points thru 11 games while maintaining a better point differential than this year’s Pats.All three of those teams (the 1985 Bears, the 1991 Redskins, and the 1999 Rams) won the Super Bowl.
I’m next to positive that the last thing anybody needs is another Patriots Super Bowl victory.
ZooeyModeratorYeah I agree with Z and Z.
It shall be interesting to see whether the D has actually improved or not. They’ve played bad-QBs for a month now. Lets see what they do against real QBs.
My expectations are that they’ll do ‘ok’ but not shine.

vI am still unable to process giving up 55 to the Bucs.
I don’t understand it. That game was gibberish to me, kinda like listening to Nittany Ram.
ZooeyModeratorI don’t see this as a playoff year.
Yeah, the Steelers game to me was the final nail in the coffin.
A playoff team cannot lose to Frisco at home with 4 days more preparation than they had, and cannot lose to the Steelers coming out of a bye.
It’s not just the math.
It’s the performance. This is a team with loose sprockets.
I think they should draft some new sprockets, and get a damn wrench in the off season.

ZooeyModeratorI hate them.
ZooeyModeratorSaving butterflies is good. That’s good.
Saving humans is also good.
ZooeyModeratorThat’s truly admirable. You walk the walk. Major kudos, WV.
====================
Thanks BT, but there’s no honor in it, trust me. I think I was always a bit of an oddball. Never-fit-in. Outsider. Alienated. Nerdy. You know the type.
I could never have worked in respectable corporate situation. I dont think it was a ‘choice.’ I just kinda organically ended up where i fit in, with the riff-raff.If I’d had more ambition, i coulda been the Joker.

vHow’s wv_ewe, btw? She’s not regretting her decision to leave us all behind, it appears. Too bad. She was a good egg.

November 17, 2019 at 1:05 pm in reply to: Obama warns democrats about moving too far to the left #108243ZooeyModeratorThing is, centrists offer nothing for the poor, the working class, or the middle.
They don’t even MENTION the poor. It’s always the Middle Class they are “fighting for.” Which, of course, means affluent white people who vote.
And even that is only lip service.

ZooeyModeratorTrump’s numbers have not dropped, though, Billy. He has not lost a significant number of supporters, as far as we can tell.
And it is unclear to me whether the strong dislike for Trump extends into more votes for the Democrat. Are those people who really, really, really dislike Trump new voters? Or the ones who voted for Hillary anyway? The polls show a close race right now, with Biden, Sanders, or Warren all beating Trump by a slim percentage. Just as polls had Clinton favored by a slim percentage.
I think if the Democrats run the wrong candidate, they stand a very good chance of losing again. And it appears to me that the Democrats have completely failed to see why they lost in 2016. If they put up another run-of-the-mill candidate, they may lose again. I think the difference is still going to be in the 3 to 5 million votes range.
As you know, Hillary won the popular vote by nearly 3 million.
Well…consider that California cast 4.3 million more votes for Hillary than for Trump. Throw out California, and Trump won the popular vote. (I swear, we have to do EVERYTHING for this ******* country). So…I’m not seeing a mighty swelling of the ranks in the Ass party.
ZooeyModeratorIf it was done before the election, have they followed up on that?
His lie count in his first 1000 days was more than 13,000.
That’s not a misprint. More than 13,000. No president has ever come within light years of that. I’d bet no other human has.
I don’t know if there’s been any follow-up. I have seen the 13000 lie count before.
My question is, can the “Trump Effect” work for any right-wing, populist, presidential candidate in the future, or was there something unique to Trump and/or the particular circumstances that exist at this moment in time that will be hard for future candidates to copy?
It can’t be deliberately copied.
Anybody who blustered like Trump as a calculated strategy would reveal himself as doing it as a calculated strategy. A significant appeal of Trump is that he is a completely genuine fraud. His is honestly dishonest. He believes what he says when he says it, and he believes what he says when he flatly contradicts himself in the very next sentence. And he is never rattled by facts or opinions. Also something nobody can fake. The guy has a 100% conviction in his own absolute infallibility.
He can do that because of his personality disorder. You can’t Fake that.
ZooeyModeratorGood thing your other German Shepherd was with you to capture the moment on camera.

ZooeyModeratorNobody grew up a Ravens fan. They haven’t been around long enough. That’s nonsense.
Isn’t it?
