It has come to my attention that the Dolphins may not have a draft entirely compromised of linebackers.
In fact, maybe they use free agency to address linebacker.
Well, that thought hurts me deep in my pulsarspheres…but it’s a fact I have to accept.
So in my sadness I turned to an Earth Movie to wash away my troubles – Tombstone
A great movie about Wyatt Earp and his companions taking on the Cowboy known as –
Emmanuel Ogbah!
Wyatt Earp came to the town of Tombstone and became the lawman of Tombstone.
But little did Earp know that a Cowboy from Nigeria would also come to town.
Earp thought the best way to preserve law and order was a high octane passing game.
Ogbah had different ideas as to what was right for Tombstone.
The 6’4, 274 pound Cowboy tallied 10 sacks in 2014 and 12.5 in 2015.
He was pass rushing beast at Oklahoma State ruining Earp’s plan to rule the West with that ariel attack.
And when Ogbah gets to the quarterback, well he doesn’t exactly tickle the passer.
It helps that Ogbah is a fast big man. He ran a 4.63 in the 40 yard dash!
I’ve seen Ogbah compared to NFL pass rushers like Charles Johnson, Datone Jones and Vinnie Curry.
Some scouts think he might be a better run stopper than a pass rusher because he is not known for his explosiveness.
But I say to quarterbacks “Tell them Ogbah’s coming, and hell is coming with him!”
Im my version of Tombstone, the Cowboy buries all the lawmen.
Okay, I took a few liberties with this version of Tombstone. But I think you know where I am going with this.
If Ogbah was an Alien Weapon of Destruction. Well in this case its more of a memorial….

Looking at Trumps number’s i think they are approaching this the wrong way. Trump as polarizing as he is loses if the other candidates drop out. So if they can first convince Kasich and Carson to drop out, i think you see most if not all of those voters move over to endorsing Rubio and/or Cruz, thats about 15-18% of the voters i think, if im accurate to last polling numbers, if all shift to one of the other Rubio or Cruz you are looking at someone who catches Trump in percentage and then getting the other to bow out pushes the other guy over the top. The first two, a vice presidency consideration might well do that, for the other two, im not sure.
You guys suckered me back in
Ken
There’s been talk of Mitt Romney running on the Independent ticket to knock off Trump
Not as independent, he’ll be a late add to the GOP. He’s their last resort to try & keep Trump from running away with it as he’s been doing….lol
Ah, OK. Gotcha
LOL, yeah he’ll win as an independent this time. What a doofus!
That’s a different scenario. I am talking about the Republicans wanting to get another candidate nominated other than Trump. In either scenario an independent candidate or a Trump nominee the Republicans likely lose the general election. Their best bet is a moderate Republican as the nominee in a two man race with Hillary. A moderate Republican can probably get a number of independent and even some democrats who don’t like Hillary to vote their way. Winning a primary is about pandering to the extreme elements of the party but winning a national election is about winning the moderates.
LOL.
Bush might get back into it if Trump wins the primary. Listen to his withdrawal speech speech and he said “suspending” his campaign and he hasn’t provided a endorsement to anyone yet. Everyone thought he would give it to Rubio but he has withheld his endorsement.

Ken, young people have been indoctrinated into believing in socialism for years, that’s why Sanders resonates with them.
Reply
I saw a video interview of several Sanders voters, & they said they’d go Trump rather than stay with the Dems on Hillary. They want reform too, just they were following the wrong guy. So this is a good thing, waking up the yutes!
Trump the socialist? LOL So the socialist sanders voters are gonna vote for Trump the billionaire capitalist that sanders has been fighting against his whole life? Where they waving southern confederate flags as they said it?
And BTW no president can do any of the drivel Trump has been spewing like rounding up the mexicans or banning all muslims. He’s not the king. There is still congress he has to deal with. But his white supremacist base likes to hear it so he says it.
I have to say, I do enjoy that our political system continues to show us what they’re all about. Maybe someday we’ll wake up.
He resonates also with young people because they in no way understand what socialism is truthfully. Thos same kids i bet would tell you the government controls too much. They probably are very much the same people that believes the conspiracy theories, etc. yet they are behind a guy who is promoting even more governmental control. Its like they dont get it at all. If the government control medicine, if they control education, if they control business and the economy, then they can fuck you up on a WHOLE other level than you think they can now.
Exactly…they need a real schooling….lol
They get fed anti-wealth, big business and capitalism and if we can all share more we’ll all live better.
we do. Look at the list of top 10 happiest people on earth. most of the list is from European socialist countries. Like Denmark, Sweden etc….
LOl Omar is now saying we are 20 players off from a playoff contending team….
20….. it only takes 22 to field a team.
we need 20 if you include miko as part of the team. According to Omar we have miko and her hubby. We need 20 more.
Omar is 20 columnists / beat writers off from being a real sports writer.
I hope re-signing misi doesn’t mean he’s gonna be the starter. I like Misi but I just think we must do better.
Restructuring Misi doesn’t mean we feel we’re okay with the LBs, just that he’s one of the best ones we have so why move on from him and get even thinner.
I read that his contract wasn’t extended either, so they either paid him in bonuses or he took a cut.
Boulder, you mean like King Obama who has to deal with the congress that he & Bush turned into potted plants? 😉
I don’t get your point. As I said you can’t get much done domestically as president because you have to deal with the congress.
Omar is 2 nuts short of being a man.
He lost the concept of journalism a longtime ago.
I love when Omar comes up with obscure numbers like we need 20 players to be a playoff team. It’s really more like half that and not all starters. Actually 3-4 new significant players could help us get there.
I think what the Republican Party is hoping for right now is that they can do enough to stop Trump from getting the necessary 1238 delegates he will need for the nomination and thus have a brokered convention where just about anything can happen. Based on current projections it is going to be real close but 538.com has Trump getting just enough delegates to avoid a brokered convention.
Boulder, this is also an example of a political party not caring about the will of the people instead wanting to keep their party the way it is corruption and all. I hope more people see it for what it is.
I think they just want to win and they don’t think Trump will turn the swing voters
a polarizing figure like Trump is probably more likely to turn independent voters off
independent voters are many times less passionate about political idealology than other voters
Its one thing to rev up the republic base by talking about building a wall
its another to turn swing voters by that talk – bc their response is kind of like…..”why?” instead of “its about time”
people who don’t come to the discussion with strong feelings on the subject are harder to persuade with Trumps strategy
its a different psychology
I think the republicans have to listen to their base
but there is a difference between being popular in the primaries to be popular in the race
at some level, in every election, people are going to say – can this guy actually win
That is not unique to trump
you have to have crossover appeal
with Trumps dialogue and the attention he brought himself – does he have that?
While I don’t think we will be a playoff team next year but the 20 players short is idiocy. No team in the NFL is 20 players short from being a playoff team. The line between a winning team and a losing team is a lot thinner today than it ever was.
How would you know that we won’t make the playoffs until we see our roster? But I agree with the rest of your point.
I do think we have a few too many holes for 1 off season. Just my feeling. Holes at LB, DE, OL, CB and S to fill. It’s not 20 players but it’s a lot for one off season. I think you try to put that many new parts together and it takes time to gel. But rapid turn arounds have happened before so it is possible but I think unlikely we make the playoffs. It does not help that we play in a competitive division.

Ken, I’ve been saying this ad nauseam for awhile now. Yes, that’s their sinister plan to stop Trump, rather than back a fellow GOP candidate who’s party surge is the biggest since the 60’s, it’s been historic.
But they can’t buy him, so they will try to destroy him. Even if it means Hillary being pres, cause she is also from the same controlled cabal.
LOL at your characterization of it as a sinister plot. To the contrary it may be rational and well intentioned.
Boulder, those Scandinavian countries are not a melting pot like the U.S., they’re a majority of people from the same culture for hundreds of years. Look at the women there, no wonder everyone is happy. LOL
They also have small populations.
By comparison, NJ has almost as many people as Sweden and more than Denmark.
omar just showed his ignorance. if he had any knowledge he would know they are not 20 players away they are just 1 new owner away
OD….how did you get FFR’s credentials.
Truth is with our team what we need is anchors at several levels of our offense and defense. We have a anchor at DT. We need one at DE now. We will need one at CB, we have one at Safety, and we need one at LB, i like Jenkins but he’s a contributor not an anchor. So to me we have 3 major needs for players on the defense. We need to have one side of our OL that is stable, and we are one player from having that on either side. We need also need to have an anchor in the running game so we either need to re-sign Miller or get one player there.
To me we really are about 5 players from a truly honest shot at being playoff caliber. We can easily address these in FA and draft so i believe this to be a 1 year doable thing. We doo need to address depth as well, and we can get some of that accomplished in FA and draft, but we may be a little thin in general in the area of depth, but im also not overly concerned if we cant have confidence in a couple of players 2 and 3 deep on the depth chart.
Deflategate is back in the courts and Brady could get suspended. Hearing about it on the radio now.
Going to be difficult unless they have new evidence to support his direct involvement.
Boulder i think restructuring Misi without extending him means we actually dont think he is a starter. I think they are moving towards looking at him as a rotational player possibly a situation guy and not a starter. I think they are getting his money down to reflect that with this restructure.

Piggy, I said “Look at the women there, no wonder everyone is happy. LOL”

I was too busy looking for pics of hot Swedish chicks to post….lol
LOL, they’re not hard to find.
Its the appeal
its not a new case
they don’t consider new evidence (evidence is not looked at on appeal)
What they consider is whether the district court did not follow the prevailing law in its decision
I think there is a good chance, the decision is reversed and Brady is suspended for the first 4 games of next year
That’s what they were saying.
Trump just released his HealthCare Plan direction he likes if he can repeal Obamacare.
Repeal the McCarran-Ferguson Act, and allow the sale of insurance across state lines. “By allowing full competition in this market, insurance costs will go down and consumer satisfaction will go up,” he says.
Allow tax payers to fully deduct health insurance premium payments in their tax returns, as businesses can. The plan asks: “Businesses are allowed to take these deductions so why wouldn’t Congress allow individuals the same exemptions?”
Allow all individuals to use Health Savings Accounts (HSAs), and make those contributions tax-free and allow them to accumulate year after year. Make them part of an individual’s estate, able to be passed on to heirs without fear of any death penalty.
Require price transparency from all healthcare providers, including clinics and hospitals.
Remove barriers to entry into free markets for drug providers that offer safe, generic options. “Congress will need the courage to step away from the special interests and do what is right for America.
he recently announced it a/k/a I waited to see what Cruz/Rubio proposed and I cut and past it….lol

Piggy i thought that was precisely the point of an appeal was to introduce evidence that was previously omitted or not available or is it only that way in a criminal case?
It’s all about Goodall’s absolute power to determine right or wrong. NFL owners think the CBA gives them absolute power right or wrong and they think NO federal Government can change that.
Now seeing it reported that Texans are now in play as competition for Miller. The definitely can promise everything he is looking for. Foster got tons of touches when he was available.
WOW, I mentioned that earlier today after I saw they released Foster & all the money they have.
Please stay Millertime!
I just dont see it unless he just loves this team. If he does whats best for him, he likely plays elsewhere. He will be making a sacrifice to stay because there definitely will be suitors offering him plenty of playing time, touches and at the same time more money than we will be able to.

We are right not approximately 5 mil over cap. Must be below that by the 9th.
Alright time to head home. Peace.
Seeya Ken
Just having teams like the Pats and Texans, and a couple others i have heard are interested, means there are going to be some decent numbers on the board. no way he stays under at or under 5mil per that i have seen a lot of us saying is about what we are hoping for. I think he will be looking at 6-7mil. He has more upside to any of the RB’s in free agency this year. Better hope for a big name RB to get cut in order to add some competition for other teams to consider.
I get the money thing, but what did you mean above about Miller getting more touches & playing time with other teams?
We have a whole new regime now. One that’s showed it’s penchant for running the ball, being balanced, & getting the RB’s involved in the passing game as well.
Booger Nuts, Booger Nuts, Booger Nuts!!!

*******************
I think jetsuck hit closer to it than you
Appeals are not a means to re-try a case
There are a place to look and see if there is reversible error on the court’s decision
their is a history involving what the court’s limitation are and are not in changing a decision made under a CBA
That history is one of the reasons I thought Brady would lose
they usually don’t disturb those decisions
But this judge did
They are reviewing whether the lower judge erred in doing that
the trial (it was a hearing in front of an arbitrator) did not happen in federal court
it wasn’t even the lower court
jetssuck said NFL/Goodell think the Fed Govt cant undue their decisions
That is correct
but the idea is – generally speaking the Fed Gov has been interpreted to have little power to change decisions made pursuant to a CBA
and this one did
so they are arguing whether he had a basis or not
this case ends at this level no matter the result
unless the Supreme Court heard it – which will never happen
there is no place left to got after this court rules on it – other than the US Supreme Court – and the idea of them hearing it is laughable
They might talk about evidence
but its not the same thing as hearing new or old evidence
Cool, gotcha. Thanks for the explanation.

GD, i wasnt saying getting more touches, im saying they can make the same promises in that department, so all things being equal, money will be hard to turn down unless you just want to stay and are willing to give up something for you to be part of something you feel attached to.
Went back and looked at my wording and i didnt say more i said those teams will offer plenty of playing time and touches. I think he will get that same shot here with Gase, therefore its going to come down to the offer.
No prob, I get ya. I just hate to see him go after he was our hometown dart pick…ugh!
Dont really think anyone wants him to go, its a problem with economics. Hell we may all be wrong and we can afford him even at 7mil per, and maybe im wrong thinking another team actually offers more than us, but i know the position we are in and i know the quality of him as a back and i just see him being worth more than we can spend. We will know in a few days because he will be one of the first free agents off the board i think.
Not many details but here’s the latest.
http://dailydolphin.blog.palmbeachpost.com/2016/03/03/dolphins-koa-misi-agree-to-new-contract/
So things went well for the NFL today, should we expect Brady to be suspended 4 games?
it could happen but doesn’t mean Brady did anything illegal. This is a power struggle between NFL vs players union cba of who has absolute power even if it is wrong on a ruling.
Booger Nuts!
.it could happen but doesn’t mean Brady did anything illegal. This is a power struggle between NFL vs players union cba of who has absolute power even if it is wrong on a ruling.
**********************************
It doesn’t mean he DIDN’T do anything illegal either . . . .
you can put it that way if one desires. Have you looked on the internet on how ideal gas law works lately. Millions and millions have proven NFL was wrong including a 6 year old.NFL should have dismissed it as a mistake.
I have talked to engineers involved in the investigation. The Pats cheated
It should be a interesting trial.
I like that song from the 70’s, Booger Nuts. I think it was by Heatwave. lol
Article from Bleacher Report states that Misi is slotted as the starting SLB.
It’s too early for that. We need to get all our players in camp first before they figure out who plays where.
I know, just repeating what it said. It’s too early to name anyone starter.
jetssuck
I desire Brady to pay a penalty just like any other player that the NFL rules on. It’s not whether the NFL is right or not, they made a ruling on a player, and the player weaseled out of it. Every other player that was suspended, did their time. Was very ruling the NFL put forth correct? Not likely, but they served their time regardless.
if that is the way you think the league should operate right or wrong that is your opinion. Reminds me of GM(american general motors) building tanks and Jeeps for Germans during the WW in Germany and US paid GM because US was wrong for bombing those manufacturing plants. Stupid ruling but I have to a bind by a contract.
I didn’t say that’s how the league should operate, just that if the league makes a ruling, every player has to abide by it. That’s how it works. I think they should always try and get it right, but when they make a decision, that’s it. Stand by it.
@alexmarvez: .@j_bushrod7475 effusive in his praise of new @MiamiDolphins HC Adam Gase. Reminds him of Sean Payton. @SiriusXMNFL
You do realize the NFL took a 1st rd pick this year away from the Pats and a 4th in 2017 right? That was their ruling, Brady fought him on being suspended personally missing games and money. But his team was penalized by the league with drafts picks and money. Why? Because they did nothing wrong. LOL
Every player agreed to abide by the leagues rules when they agreed through player reps to the CBA
The federal ruling reversing the suspension really undermined the CBA
It would not have bothered me if the two sides would have just agreed in 2 games
I think that is the smarter move than leaving not up to the courts
The looser of this appeal is fucked
I finally got it. Small hands equal small dck like my wife told me…LOL

It’s a fact that he started a university
It’s not a matter of opinion
He actually testified in court in the AGA’s suit against him
He was very involved with it
I don’t know about Hillary but I assume she was very aware about the setup of her email servers
I pretty sure she doesn’t know what a server is from a desktop o/s. The emails have repeatedly been determined to be unclassified info at the time BUT NOW they would be determined some other classification under different laws. Old stuff.
Are trump and Rubio wearing the same outfit?
no, one has the bigger hands
Tim, I used to be a Fox news junkie until I did the reasearch & found they are very jaded, corrupt, and bought off. Their game is to seem like they’re playing to the conservative market.
All ‘mainstream’ media are a conglomerate of 6 major corporations and are under the same narrative, just twisted a lil different.
It’s not real news, it’s not fair and balanced. Once in awhile it’s ok on 1-2 stories, but then back to predominantly propaganda.
My friend coined the term duopoly and I stand by it. There is an establishment gov’t body, a global elite. I just don’t believe in a military overtake. That would also be the dumbest thing we could do. The minions drive the nations, there are more of them that make the few smart people rich. That’s how it works.
Right. I’ve listened to Roger Stone on many subjects & he uses the term duopoly as well.
Roger Stone is very knowledgeable. Was an insider all the way back to Goldwater & Nixon, and is still active. He used to be part of the corruption as a young guy, trying to make money. But his conscious got to him & he came clean for many years now and he’s outing all of them.
Check him out sometime on youtube or his website Stonezone.com
Here’s 1 4 u guys.Hillary invested 1000 dollars in a 9 month futures cattle contract and can you guess what her return was? I wonder if it was inside info but I guess anything is possible.
Her, Pelosi, Reid, & many others in both parties have made tons with insider info. There’s a little known caveat in the law that allows members of congress to do so. No wonder it’s such a highly sought position, besides all the lobby & special interest monies….SMH!
That’s why many of them as well as the large banker execs made fortunes off of the housing bubble burst days before it popped, then again on the bailouts, courtesy of your tax dollars.
forgot to tell you guys—she made 100,000 on a 9 month futures contract from 1,000 dollars.
GD, the last question was centered around Trump being the head honcho. All the debates have been rigged. Unreal!
No substance. A lot of bad stuff but some good entertaining stuff as well. That’s what it’s all about anyway right? LOL
We got Trump’s life documentary.
Some infrastructure and defense discussions.
Foreign policy eh?
The common town, only Kasich, He’s the best candidate but he’ll never win.
The biggest thing I got out of his debate was Trump’s moderate stance. He appealed to a larger audience as abrasive as he is. He stayed calm. Cruz tried to lure him in and he backed off.
None of these other candidates can claim Trump’s accomplishments and they know it. So they don’t go there other than Kasich who has done it on the government level.
That said, it doesn’t mean I’m voting for Trump, I don’t like the decorum of the panel. But the media set this up. They can’t wait for Hillary vs. Donald.
He did seem very clam and laid back tonite. He’s cool now, he knows he’s got an insurmountable lead. Only way to stop him is by rigging, stealing delegates, corruption, a huge false flag event that declares a national emergency, or by physical harm.
He’s in the driver seat, he’s surrounded himself with good advisors, and he’s becoming more serious in what he’s doing.
Is he perfect? No. Does he have a few warts? Yes…they all do, most on a grander scale.
But Trump seems to be genuinely for pulling the fracturing country back together, & becoming more prosperous.
Tim, the media isn’t trying to set this up for Hillary vs Trump….Hillary yes, but they’re trying their best, from orders given them to discredit Trump at all costs with silly questions and asking about disavowing Duke over & over & over, all the while throwing up softball questions for the establishment guys, Rubio, Cruz, & Kasich.
Funny, it keeps backfiring on them…LOL
Not going to happen to many big money people who have million and billions on the line. Here’s a interesting person you can look into for “right to rise” PAC Ray Lee Hunt.
After his father’s death in 1974, he inherited Hunt Oil Co. along with his three sisters. In 1982, Forbes magazine estimated Ray Hunt’s family’s total net worth to be $200 million. Ray made a huge oil find in Yemen in 1984.[2] It took two years for Hunt, partnering with other companies, to lay a pipeline and build a refinery for the oil. In 2006 Forbes estimated that Ray’s family’s net worth increased from $200 million to $4.6 billion.
In September 2007, Hunt struck an oil deal with the Kurdistan Regional Government in the disputed territories of Ninewa near the Dohuk Governorate with an estimated value of $8 to $14.5 billion. The federal Iraqi Oil minister has denounced this deal as illegal, because under current Iraqi law only the central government is authorized to enter into contracts, though the Kurdistan Region believes it has a constitutional right to do so. The Kurds refuse to share details about the deal but insist that they will share profits. Likewise, Hunt Oil has refused to answer questions about the deal from US government officials who called for details when the deal became public.
The infamous Koch brothers are also against Trump. They’re moniker is being the funders of GOP candidates….lol
Shows you Trump is the outsider this country truly needs for a change, real change damn it, not Obama change! smh
gotta admit the debate was entertianing—–little marco, little hands, marco telling trump he is flexible
Rubio is very flexible, he’s a switch hitter back in the day with Miami gay foam parties. (google it) Not sure he still is now though…lol
No he isn’t gay or was ever was. I seen him at eevnts and he always had good looking women with him. He was considered a playboy at UF and before gettting married.
Riiiight. 😉
Like I said, google the story & photos. Not everything is as it’s supposed to look on the surface…lol
jetsssuck, it’s obvious Trump is upsetting the apple cart. I like that about him. I don’t really like him as a person but he’s smarter than most people. Some can’t handle that. I don’t care. At the least I want him to blow up the Republican Party and expose it which is what he’s doing.
If Hillary wins we’ll still be okay. She’s also a big Wall Street girl so business as usual. LOL
Trump makes you want to punch his smug face, but I don’t care what a candidate looks like or sounds like. Remember Ross Perot?
He was the smartest guy running at the time, and a business man, a billionaire in fact, as well as an outsider, non-establishment guy. He told the nation in a debate if they passed NAFTA, you’d hear a big sucking sound of corporations, manufacturing, 7 jobs leaving America.
Well, he didn’t win, cause he looked like an Elf.
Guess what, NAFTA was passed after the election and you see the results today in our labor sector/ GDP, etc.
Now they are trying or have passed TPP, which is NAFTA on steroids. Trump opposes that, but nearly everyone else voted in favor. Boo on them scumbags, boo! As our kids & their kids suffer the consequences!
we will be OK with anyone this is the greatest country that is admired by everyone. When I volunteered for Jeb one of the whales Large pac contibutor lawyer asst. they told me a story about why this Country is the greatest that I will never forget.
She told me what makes this country so great is we can solve any problem where others countries are limited because we have lots of different nationalities of citizens who can look at problems from different perspectives where these other nations are limited on how to look at problems.
She was a lawyer assistant for mike fernandez. The guy walked in the building with about 50 people surrounding him without parking the cars in the street. They just left them in the street for 30 minutes.Lots of lawyers and I got to talk with one of the most beautiful ones.
…and with that, I’m out fellas….good sane convos, thanks.
Go Phins!

I can’t blame Trump for knocking Meygan & Faux News
well that’s no surprise you don’t seem to be able to knock Trump for any of this stupidity
I’ve called him names plenty of times. I couldn’t stand him as a tv personality.
But he’s hitting it out of the park as a candidate so far. Like I said over & over.
I’m for anyone that has the crooked ruling class, going, Oh shit, our gig is up unless we get rid of this guy.

Nice draft, but I could do w/o Whitehair in the 2nd.
Myles Jack is a great pick if he only lasts to #8. Real star quality!
Brothers is a thumper.
Jonathan Jones is small like Grimes, but is blazing ass fast!
Matlock is a good dbl down @ LB.
Alexander is worthy of a lte pick & competition @ OG. Should’ve saved that 2nd rd pick for Dodd or Ogbah if they were there…IMO.
Both gone
Well ya did the best you could GM Bolt. 🙂
I like it
but I’m not seeing the Matakevichs and the Nassib lasting as long as they did in your draft
GOOG MORNING DOLFANS EVERYWHERE!! –Today’s high in Tampa Bay will be about 75, with a low near 60 and mostly sunny skies!!!! And this, the first weekend of spring training, will see two more days of 75/60 and sunny as fans jam the Grapefruit League stadiums to see their favorite teams play in GOD’s Country. WHAT A TIME TO BE IN FLORIDA!!
It is a beautiful day. Thank you God.
The Republican debate was a farce. Trump is an embarrassment of a candidate, his behavior fits an 8 YO snot nosed kid more than a Presidential candidate. The rest of the losers (save for Kasich) are just mumbling the same ol’ same ol’. What a shame. I can’t see voting for Trump, I just can’t. I don’t want Hillary in, but I don’t want Trump either.
Vote for a 3rd party
I may just do that. It was intolerable to watch. The crowd was yelling, there were a lot of kids in the audience. It’s just such an unprofessional and un-serious forum now. It used to be a serious event, now it’s a very casual free for all, no rules, and nothing that commands respect or viewership.
Mike, the crowd was yelling cause the tickets to the event are given to hand picked people now that will protest & boo Trump. So yeah, I’d be snotty too.
But, actually Trump was very calm & composed last nite compared to other times.
He had Rubio, Cruz & Kelly with their panties in a bunch though….lol
As you mentioned the candidates other than Trump were just same ol same ol rhetoric.
Trump is fresh with bold ideas. His camp released a new Health Plan yesterday too, but Fox avoided that….Hey, we wanna hear you disavow David Duke for the 20th time Mr. Trump. Mr. Trump, did you disavow David Duke?
Mr. Trump, so will you disavow David Duke??? SMH, and they’re called “moderators”…LMAO. They’re so slanted it isn’t even funny, it’s SAD!
Mike, that’s what public life is like now. Social media creates a whole new dynamic and the media now follows suit.
Vote your conscience and brace for Hillary as your next president. Yikes!
Oh, and they all agreed they’d support the nominee. LOL
Gotta love a monarchies, Bush, Clinton, Bush, Obama, Clinton? smh
Break the cabal of it’s string of puppets.
by electing the guy they all worked for…..lol
Come on guys, let’s get this done.
Yessss! That’s about where I had him targeted too. C’mon Lamar, signz zee papers!
SMH

Piggy–here’s something that you may find interesting since you work for yourself and not the man.
Trevor D. Rees-Jones—He started his career as a bankruptcy attorney in Dallas. Later, he practiced oil and gas reorganization law—-major whale for pac “right to rise”. Maybe with S.Arabia refusing to lower its production and our homeland oil companies are going to suffer but it will create opportunities. Maybe we are going to see allot of reorganizations and mergers because these companies are suffering. Maybe you can obtain some extra work since you made the big leap of working for yourself.
…Or maybe a US president could quit holding hands with the Saudi princes & drop our dependency on their foreign oil.
More oil in the US than in Saudi Arabia anyways. Issue offshore drilling permits again! Stop being a bedmate of the Saudi’s.
come on man-you know it’s a custom and to respectful of another culture it is always best to not offend another country. There’s more crude oil than the opec nations? I don’t think so.
Like they’re respectful of America? LOL
GDP
We obviously didn’t watch the same debate. Trump didn’t STFU for a second, he was antagonistic making 8 YO little snips like “Little man Cruz” “Lying Ted”, he interrupted every candidate nearly every time they spoke and spoke over them, pretty much like every other debate but worse. If I were there, I would have wanted to run up on stage and put a freaking gag on him to stifle him from interrupting every comment. It was so frustrating. I can’t stands him! That’s alls I can stands, and I can’t stands more! lol
Actually, it was “Little man Marco”. Silly me! lol
I have to admit he makes me laugh. Even little Marco laughed. LOL
does that mean he has smaller hands?
He was calm when asked a question by the slanted moderators, but did become agitated when the two goons flanking him where constantly interrupting. Hell Rubio could never shut up. He knows it was his last debate. He’s pulling out soon. He’s toast & that’s why the ‘establishment’ is warming up Mittens Romney….lol smh!
Lying ted and little Marco LOL
I think that’s the first presidential debate I’ve ever seen where the candidates penis size was debated. LOL
it was more like a clown show than a debate. It was good TV 🙂
Oil!
http://moneymorning.com/2015/08/20/chart-where-does-the-u-s-get-its-oil-from/
Which further shows all the pandering of the Saudi’s is about way more than Oil. It’s about exploiting other weaker ME nations, ousting their leaders, and robbing them of their oil for the international cabal that many of our governmental and societal leaders are invested into as well.
Wow. I agree!!
yes we are one of the larger producers but we still consume more than we produce. Russia is in the same boat concerning oil production. That article mentions during the 6 month period. As the cost of a barrel of gas goes down so does the incentive of domestic producers to produce in N.America. Cr uz has a plan to create a agreement between Mexico, Canada, and US to take advantage of N.American reserves and lower the cost for the 3 nations by having cutting distribution (transportation) costs. Similar how NAFTA helped auto industry lower costs for assembly compared to the Japanese
Tim
I don’t find Trump amusing at all, not even slightly, and I think he would embarrass our country if he were President. He’s an ass.
no argument there but when you have a reality TV star as a nominee you get reality TV. The debate last night was like the apprentice.
On the world stage he’d out negotiate Dubya, BO, Billary, lil Marco, & lying Ted all day long though.
because he is rich let’s all assume he will out negotiate people
You understand that this guy was born with more capital to invest than anyone else
Trump has made more money than any of the other candidates
he’s also lost more money than any of them
He has capital to spend and create more money
it doesn’t mean he is some great negotiator or that somehow that will translate to foreign policy negotiations
Trump didn’t make something from nothing
he mad something from something
we are just dealing with such huge amounts of money that the profits are really large
If you think business success = the best negotiator
and he will get what he wants
look at our own guy, one of the richest owners in the NFL, Ross and compare the success he had with obtaining Jeff Fisher or John Harbaugh
He’s one of he most successful business men in the NFL – and it does has not translated to NFL success in terms of getting what he sets his mind to
In terms of politics, diplomacy is a real skill
and it has been invaluable to politicians everywhere since the beginning of time
Trump can’t change hundreds of years of making compromises and swallowing your pride (which is what diplomats do everyday)
He does not show any diplomacy skills
Maybe that’s something angry voters relate to
But I have a hard time believing than trying to bully everyone around is going to work on the world stage
and I dread the pushback from that
If you negotiate like trump acts on the world stage – I think there are going to be some real problems
diplomacy is about compromise – voters don’t want to hear that, but that’s the truth
and I’m not getting from Trump that is his strong suit.
Well since I think most pols are asses but not as amusing, actually more nauseating, I do like that Trump is fucking the Republican Party up because it needs to happen.
GDP,
the issue is not who has more oil. The issue is who can get the oil into gasoline cheapest. It costs Saudi Arabia less than $10/barrel to get their oil out. So if oil is above 15/barrel they make a profit.
Oil has to be over $60/barrel for US shale oil producers to get a profit. So as long as the Saudis are pumping a lot of cheap oil we won’t be able to compete with that unless the technology catches up and makes it less costly
Isn’t it Shell Oil? 😉
You’re correct there. That needs to change for the US companies. Build more refineries too.
I thought Trump was the same jerk he always is
I don’t think there is anything presidential about him
I did think Cruz and Rubio were pretty tough on him
but for the most part – their criticism was right on the money
and Trump acted like “so what”
so I guess that can be seen as “calm”
But for some one who hates Trump (like me) he did nothing to convince me that I’m wrong about him
and for some one who loves him – they still love him
it looks pretty set in stone now
last night was just about entertainment value and not so much substance
I think it was entertaining if your a Democrat, or you don’t care if we have an ass as President.
Aren’t we used to having asses as President?
They barely discussed any issues. But they rarely do that during debates anyway so it might as well be amusing. When the reality is this woman will be our president anyway, why not have a laugh along the way.

My post was to show that we don’t rely on the Middle East as much as people think for oil.
jestsuck > “Similar how NAFTA helped auto industry lower costs for assembly compared to the Japanese”

OMG, please tell that to the thousands of US auto workers….smh! How could anyone with American first interests be for NFTA & now TPP, which is NAFTA on steroids?
take a breath and count to 10, I know you can do it. LOL
Boulder, hey we both agreed on each other’s most recent posts. Small miracle. Group hug! 😉
I know. miracles happen 🙂 I actually agree with a lot of your football posts just not many of the political ones.
it really bothers me that they are not discussing issues
I watched Bill OReily speak with each of the candidates after the debate
Cruz, Rubio and Kasich all were able to be articulate and talk a little about policy then
Trump made Bill O’Reilly believe that he was being mean to Trump
and then we met his hot milfy foreign wife
I was like WTF is going on here
How do people think this guy has any substance
He doesn’t FREAKIN TALK about anything except himself and how great he will be!
You’re falling into the smear category right now. You keep saying the same thing over and over as if you must convince everyone about Trump. Talk about a LB who moves like Frankenstein or something. LOL
#winning
I would rather have Charlie Sheen as a candidate
😦

Thanks
maybe I should look into oil and gas reorganization law
I have know idea what that is now…..lol
It’s taking money from the rich to give to the richer. You can do that can’t you counselor?
Especially for jestssuck. But worth the 3min for everybody.
come on man—-there are always 2 sides negative and positive. I’m sure there are good points to the agreement but you refuse to see the forest.
Mike
Its funny but its not funny
If its Clinton vs Trump
we have an 8 month headache unless some 3rd party candidate rises from the ashes or something
But I guess some people were laughing during the fall of the Roman Empire….lol
We’re used to having phonies and liars in office so what is the big deal?
Just worry about Hillary because she is going to be the next president. It was planned years ago.
That’s the very very very scary part, that we actually live in a so called ‘democracy’ where that happens routinely!
Evil vs. Good, since the garden of eden.
He’s much different than any politician I’ve seen
and not in a good way

JS, I doubt you even watched it or did a study on it. But yeah, the “forest” is 96million americans out of the work force. 100M on some sort of government teat, at all time record levels….and the progressives want to hand out more, so they can control the minions as they & their cronies makes untold riches.
Wow- I didn’t realize 96 million out of work that is almost 40% of all of working. The great recession wasn’t as bad. Yes, some industries suffered but others gained as a result of Nafta.
here’s a question for you Piggy:
Do you think Brady can sue Goodel for defamation of character with malice with his pursuit or should I say continuation of suit in civil court?
no
defamation is very tough to prove in general
Think of it as an exception to the 1st amendment
bc when a person sues another person for defamation they are asking a court (the gov’t) to suppress speech
so the threshold is high to begin without looking at the facts
people sue for defamation all the time in spite of that
but its not an easy suit to win when push comes to shove
There is a couple of parts to proving defamation that are generally problematic
the first being that the defamatory statement must be false
that means the suing party must prove that its false
the burden shifts and that is the killer
Its not that Tom Brady has to say to the NFL – you can’t prove I didn’t do anything
its that Tom Brady has to prove – I didn’t actually do anything
sure there is evidence out there, more like theories, like the ideal gas law – but I don’t think Tom Brady can prove he didn’t do anything
while I do think he can say “NFL can’t prove it” and win
its the shifting burden than hurts the person claiming defamation
my law school professor use to give us a hypothetical
Tom Cruise wants to sue the Enquirer for saying “Tom Cruise is Gay”
How’s Tom Cruise going to prove that?
He can’t – he has to convince everyone he is not gay, not that it was wrong to call him gay without knowing if he was
You see the difference
You have to prove its false
and proving something said about you is false is hard and messy and ugly
Tom Brady probably doesn’t want to have top prove he didn’t cheat
it will probably hurt him more than it helps him
There is also an priveledge aspect
and I suspect, but I don’t know, that the CBA creates some kind of immunity for the commissioner in enforcing its rules, even if the commissioner wronged some one in doing that
and if that’s true, that will case a case dismissed before it even gets started
You think he could use the wells report rebutal that kraft showed
This is soo sad! And now the BO admin has pushed through the TPP.
It must stop for the good of the common people in all countries involved.
why choose the auto industry? AAllot of foreign multinational companies manufacture in Mexico. The American auto industry was a success story if you consider the industry would have collapsed if it stayed in US. The citizens of Mexico that work at these factories probably have not made as much in their life. It will take more factories to move to elevate the people of mexico
and yes I have read various articles positive and negative through the years.
If it’s so good & lifting the mexicans up, then why are they flooding across the border in record numbers?
could it be that only 30% of all Mexicans are working in foreihn Multinational companies .These MNC decided to lower its manufacturing cost by manufacturing in Mexico. We are developing their country and they will and do need american goods in return.
I think we’ll see Miller sign a 4 year $24M deal to remain in Miami. Then he better get ready to get 20-25 touches per game as opposed to the 15.5 he’s had the last two seasons.
I’m down for that. If we ran with commitment, then imagine how dangerous Gase could make #17?
Miller is worth the investment, because it would make the huge investment in Tanny more worth paying it.
Upgrade the OL.
WR Landry
WR Parker
WR Stills
TE Cameron
QB Tannehill
RB Miller
There’s a lot of talent there. Put a sensible offense in place, call the game like someone who has a clue and we could be a very good offense.
that’s pretty steep IMO. IF he gets that I hope the guarantee money is not more than 13 or 14
It’s not really that much for a talented RB in his prime with little wear and tear.
http://overthecap.com/position/running-back/
I’d think the guaranteed would be not above $10M
I think the guaranteed money would be around half for Miller.
gotta run but very interesting conversATION TODAY
Be glad you’re not a mexican worker…but if our country keeps pushing these types of trade policies, then we will become mexican & chinese workers. Bring on the robots. 😉
gdp,
If miller is getting 6mil/year then the guaranteed money is usually 2+ years. SO I think its in the 13-15mil range but you never know.
