___________________________________________________
So that’s the list of the second QB drafted in each of the last 15 drafts. What’s sometimes more surprising than where they were taken is who was the QB drafted before them and where they were taken. Geno Smith as the second QB taken all the way at pick #54, and E.J. Manuel was the only 1st RD QB in 2013. Patrick Mahomes at #10 8 picks later than Mitch Trubisky eh? There were only 3 years where QB’s went #1 and #2, 2016, 2015 and 2012. Just so you know, I don’t believe this shows any more scientific evidence, but it’s interesting to look at the past, which sometimes reveals the future. I also understand that 15 years ago, the NFL was a different game than the 2020 version but the interesting thing is how much money these first round players were getting paid. We know it all changed after Sam Bradford was drafted #1 in 2010 and signed the most lucrative rookie contract ever in the NFL, 6 YR/$78M with $50M Guaranteed. Aaron Rodgers who slid to #24 in 2005 signed a 5 YR/$7.65M contract.
Let’s start from 2005 and we’ll work our way back to the present. Aaron Rodgers waited 3 full seasons before his 1st start with Brett Favre as the starter. Matt Leinart started after 5 games behind Kurt Warner and finished 4-7. Brady Quinn didn’t start until season 2 and started only 3 games behind Derek Anderson. Joe Flacco started immediately for a stacked Ravens team and went 11-5. Mark Sanchez started immediately for MTP and the Jets and finished 8-7. Tim Tebow started only 3 games but played a fair amount in 9 games although not necessarily as a passer. Jake Locker sat out his entire rookie season. RG III was damn well going to start after they traded a boatload of 1st RD picks for him and he was brilliant until he got injured. The only 2nd RD QB in this group, Geno Smith, started his entire rookie season but Matt Simms was their other QB (who?). Johnny Manziel started only 2 games and was just awful. Marcus Mariota started 12 games and played well but the Titans were pretty bad and they finished 3-9 in his starts. Carson Wentz started immediately and played well although the Iggles went 7-9. Patrick Mahomes started game 16 and won. He’s the guy I consider most similar with Tua. I’ll explain more later. Sam Darnold started 13 games, sat out the first 3 behind Josh McCown. Some may say this is the closest situation to Tua and Fitzpatrick and they might be right. Finally, Daniel Jones started after 4 games and played pretty well despite his 3-9 record.
Why do I think Tua/Fitzpatrick is most similar to Mahomes/Smith? I see 2 veteran QB’s who both have the respect of their HC. Fitzpatrick said it himself, he’ll help Tua in any way he can but Ryan Fitzpatrick wants to be the starting QB this season. Of course mitigating circumstances will no doubt affect how soon Tua starts and I’m not talking about Tua’s health, I’m talking the health of the nation and the Coronavirus pandemic. Having a virtual offseason is not doing Tua any favors. There are rumblings that teams may be able to start OTA’s in June but I fell that unless every single team and their respective states are able to open, that’s not going to happen. Cali is probably the linchpin because they are the least likely to be willing to open up and if they don’t, I don’t see any teams opening because you can’t have some teams working and others not, that takes away the whole parity theme the NFL is built on.
I’ve made it clear (w/o having any actual medical records for Tua) that I feel it would be best to let Ryan Fitzpatrick run this team and if there’s a point of the season where we’re out of it, and Tua is 100%, then I’m fine with giving him the reins, as long as the O-line isn’t a bunch of matadors. On the other hand, I really can’t imagine that he would start immediately, I think that would blow my mind. I want to see what Tua can do, I’m excited that we have arguably the most talented QB in this draft and the most talented QB we’ve had over the last 21 years since Dan Marino left the building. Still, I can’t help but feel that after that devastating hip injury, time will be Tua’s friend. We have so many new faces on our team and we could conceivably have 4-5 new starters on our O-line. Jackson LT, Flowers LG, Karras C, Hunt RG and Davis RT, that’s 4. Plug Kindley in at RG and Hunt at RT that’s 5. Think they might take some time to jell? I don’t want our new QB subjected to that kind of situation, no sir!
I’d love to hear your thoughts on this, let em rip!
GO DOLPHINS!!!

So I read today that Florida is / has entered phase 2 reopening…..Bars are allowed to reopen with 50% capacity “with the exception of barstools” WTF does that even mean? You can go to a bar, but you aren’t allowed to sit? You can sit in a chair but not a stool? I cannot find in any of the literature what the “exception of barstools” means. Not at all surprising with Desantis running things..
I guess barstools are so close together so they don’t want that. Tables you can move apart, but people might move barstools close together even if you space them out
BUT I WANT TO SIT AT THE BAR! LOL
I am over this whole thing. Just infect me already! (I may have already had it in March, but testing wasn’t available at the time)
I hear ya. As busy and crazy as it has been in my place, it’s practically impossible to maintain enough caution. So many times I go from person to person w/o washing my hands in between because it’s so damn busy. I’m just going to have to hope no one coming in either has it or is carrying it. I’d feel safer min a restaurant or a bar. lol

Stanger – Iggy Mahogany
Hoping we end up calling him “Mr. Pick 6” 🙂
LOL, I’m going either with Noah or Ig.
Actually think Mike E might have had it with Iggy.
Oh yeah, I somehow missed his Iggy post. That’s a good one.
Sheesh, did Tua have carnal relations with Chris Simms’ wife and daughter?
I was thinking Igby.. kinda like Mike E.
So the NFL is considering cutting the preseason this year to 2 games. I don’t see why not. Isn’t next year’s plan to add an extra game to the reg season, add a 2nd bye-week, and cut the preseason down to 2 anyway?
Although, this will give them fewer games to work out any kinks that arise in whatever measures they put into play for COVID.
Only 2 of our draft picks are left unsigned now. I don’t know if you can read anything into it about our FO or not, but only 3 of the entire first rd draft class have signed so far, and we have 2 of them.
https://twitter.com/MiamiDolphins/status/1271207974762098691?s=20
I think of him as Noghene. I pronounce it “noggin” in my head.
Not gonna call him Nog-Henne
Just not gonna do it
Igbino it is.
https://www.cbsnews.com/news/george-floyd-derek-chauvin-nightclub-bumped-heads-changes-story/
Steve – So now what? If Chauvin didn’t know Floyd previously, are we back to it being racist, or is that just my fucked up take on this?
Musta been some other George? WTF!!!???
Touch your nose😉
These stories reek to high heaven. When I first heard it I thought, since its CBS, no telling if it’s true. I think now that it was a setup.
How do you guys feel about CHAZ Seattle?
Where the anarchists have walls and are checking State issued Id’s?
Some good ones for the rookie, I like Igby the best. But I do like the rhyme with Mahogany.
Ever work with Mahogany anyone? It’s so beautiful to work with. Soft and easy to work with but so durable and long lasting, the dust is fine and insidious but who cares it’s worth it. Just clear coat it.
Phin pup is probably the only one who has.
I did 2 whole kitchens in Mahogany back in the day. I bought a whole pallet of 6-7’ S3S boards, the size lended itself perfectly for a kitchen. Planed, jointed, squared every board, which I did with any species, cut, installed, sanded each cabinet piece, raised panel doors. Mahogany is different and special. Rich. It’s gorgeous.
I made a fucking huge detailed gorgeous wall unit for a former MLB pitcher, he was active at the time. Then he moved so I went to the new house to reinstall the unit. I had been after him that I wanted to catch as he warmed up. Well one of times I was there he “finally “ let me. I embarrassed the shit out of myself lol. I threw 2 back that sailed over his head, omg. Then some curvey fucking screwball came, wtf is this, bounces off the heal of the glove and nailed the top of my foot. I was limping for days. Mind you the only mitt he had was an undersized catchers mitt that had Tony Perez and Andre the hawk Dawson real autographs on it, not the imprinted one when you buy one. Still the mitt was no excuse for launching a couple over his head.
I should have mentioned, that MLB pitcher pitches even when he’s just getting loose – COME AT YOU FAST!!!
Then he throws some fucking junk shit just to fuck with me.
Stanger or Wyoming might know of him he came up with Pittsburgh and after that he played for a bunch of other teams including Padres, Yankees and Marlins where he was when I met him. He was going back and forth to Cocoa each day in his Dodge Viper for Spring training from Winter Springs about 45 minutes. Dan Miceli.
Want to hear a true story?
Good. It was for the second Fest we had, maybe third but very early on, I wanted to show you guys what I do(did) sort of. I made this badass box, humidor size, with a nice laquer finish in Mahogany (left over from the kitchens) and I was going to give it away at the tailgate based on who won Howies Pick ‘em. Whoever won got the box, all concealed hardware, magnetic catch, velvet interior. Well I wasn’t happy with the finish necessarily and Howie never showed despite him having walked right by us. Plus the whole thing didn’t unfold really the way I had anticipated so I held off saying anything. The box was in Jim’s truck but I never said anything. I also had a nice Dolphin logo sticker I was going to put on it which was very hard to find. The box never came out at the Fest, the sticker still unstuck never went on anything and the box is now my wife’s jewelry box.
Sonny, mahogany is beautiful wood. I dont do woodwork, I suck at stuff like that. The only woodwork I ever did was sand down all her furniture so she could paint it. It was a lot of work but I did it for a huge bag of weed. lol
That’s worth it.
Her being my cousin. She was dating a dealer at the time. It was quality weed too. 🤪
After I met Miceli naturally I followed him. He was getting towards the end of his career and started floating around to different teams. I think it was for the Giants in a playoff game he coughed up one , the game/series winner to Todd Zeile that I don’t think has landed yet. Yes I cautiously gave him shit about that several months later.
This is it. Not Zeile it was Edmonds and it was game 6 not the series winner
my reply to PIGGY ;
Google Candace Owens and Degree180 and see what comes up for you
She was a vocal liberal in 2015
She was fed lies by the left for years, she’s come to her senses and switched sides. She believes the govt gives financial support to blacks to keep them in the dem party, not to help them grow and better themselves.
Do you think Al Sharpton likes blacks dumb and compliant or educated and able to go at life without financial support. I saw an old clip yesterday that showed some left politician saying giving blacks financial support will keep them in the dem party for the next 200 years. Why is that Ok?
5 years from now, when everything she says is the opposite of what she is saying now, I hope I remember to say I told you so
She’s just a grifter telling you what you want to hear and making money off it
I love the story about how she married the son of a British baron after knowing him two weeks via FaceTime….that doesn’t raise an eyebrow or anything….
Sometimes the last people who realize that a a con is going on are the marks
the left is attacking her because of “BLEXIT” they don’t want black voters “waking up”.
and this ;
great video , the truth hurts if it isnt inline with somes agenda.
here’s a couple of black dudes who refer to her as a good source…….. just sayin.

In terms of Candace Owens. I’ve been in a lot of discussions about race, politics and discrimination in a lot of different crowds and I’ve never heard one black person refer to Candace Owens as a good source of information/perspective
in response to my real experience with real people you post videos of people you’ve never met
I really hope everything you learn about different people doesn’t come from YouTube
I don’t want to get in the middle of your and Tops discussion!
But as a side note: I doubt any of the Beer joints I go to have the same views as the establishments you frequent? 😉
At Slatterys?
What do you think goes on there? lol
I just wonder if tua tagovailoa will start.shouldnt he be able to beat out fitz?
Why should a rookie QB be able to beat out a solid vet? Sure Wilson did it, but didn’t have a vet there.
I want Fitz to start, because it gives us at least 2 chances to get great QB play this year. I want to make the playoffs this year and I think Fitz starting week 1 gives us the best chance to do that. Unless he lights out, which only has about a 30% chance of happening, I expect to see Tua get a real chance before the year us over.
I don’t want to start the year off in NE and give belicheat a chance to Fup Tua.
I want the best man to start at quarterback, that should be the focus
It should be easier to make the playoffs this year, they have added 2 more teams to it. Can Miami make the playoffs?
Yes, but we have to get off to a fast start, no time to waste on rookie QB growing pains.
The rookie QBs that get off to fast starts are generally running QBs and u don’t think we want Tua running wild.
Fitz was great his first season in NY, because he had big receivers to throw to, a running game, a good team behind him and Gailey.
This season is setup perfect for him, just like it was in NY.

Hopefully Dolphins football?
But that wasn’t the subject at hand
The places I go to drink beers are not hotbeds of liberal advocacy. They are just places where people unwind
In terms of your generalization about ny, it’s just a false equivalency
We get all types in nyc. We accept all types. A huge chunk of our population is originally from outside of nyc
I don’t know how to say this delicately, but it’s obvious to me that when a lot of people on this blog talk about issues that affect minorities, they don’t actually know any. And saying to me, well in the places I go, where there are few minorities, everyone agrees with me, doesn’t really flip the tables the way you think it does
Exposure to other cultures makes a difference. Not lack of exposure.
Are you fucking kidding me???????
You do remember I work in the Industrial construction industry right?
I have people I work with from all over the world!
I have MS13, arien nations, and Bloods on the same crews!
I have several friends that are members of the Non-Stop Riderz that were in Houston the other day.
I’m not going to go down this rabbit hole any further! But just suffice it to say I might have some exposure!
SMMFH
If Tua beats Fitz out he will start!
I have faith in Flores to play the best available person!
Even Marino lost his first start. We need to win the opener.
We don’t need to win the opener!
We need to keep progressing as a team!
The wins will come if we do that!!!!!!!

__________________________________________________
Sorry Piggy, i totally disagree with your thought process here.
it’s not about what you think of her, she may be a bad person or not?
it’s about what you think of her statement? that’s the issue at hand.
classic leftism.
a way to cloud the issue at hand and kill the messenger because it isn’t inline with their beliefs.
there is no regard for the actual truth if it doesn’t support the agenda.
Don’t be sorry about being wrong
Try to correct it
My thought process is she is giving people who lack diversity in their lives a person of color to rally behind bc she is selling them what they already believe
And it sells very well
AKA the truth?
But it’s a false sense of a security
And in real life, it’s really not a good source of information on how a community feels
I’m not going to waste more time with it
The real life exposure is there for you if you want it
I encourage you guys all to get out there, go interact with community groups in urban settings where there is a heavy population of minorities and see what you think
I can’t post something here or on social media that’s a substitute for that
If that’s true, then you’re saying the left does something for blacks, please tell me what that is that they do.
My thought process is she is giving people who lack diversity in their lives a person of color to rally behind bc she is selling them what they already believe
This is exactly what the left has been doing for years, and yet some how, if you believe someone on the right is doing it, it’s a con. Well maybe Candice isn’t a con, because two opposite sides can’t both be in general lying.
Joe Biden exposed the left for who they really are, when he said you ain’t black, if you support Trump. He proved what I said above, that they take the black vote for granted. Candice Owens says the same thing, please tell me how in 5 years that lie will be exposed?
I’m 5 years Candace Owens will be selling a whole different can of lies that conflicts with the ones she is saying now
I’m not telling you that your political leanings are wrong or will be proven wrong
Or political won’t be just some one opinions and we are all wrong and right at times
I’m telling you using her quotes to express anything about how a community feels or should feel is wrong. Because she’s a grifter. I’m telling you she’s going to be selling whatever sells in 5 years and it won’t be close to saying what she says now
Biden was heavenly criticizes by a lot of people for those comments. The guy you mentioned earlier, Sharpton, has actually called on Biden to apologize for quite a few things
Or Nancy Pelosi deciding the confederate statues have to come down in NYC now, while she’s been in congress for 30 years, they were fine, but now with an election coming in Nov, think she has a false agenda?
Wyo – NYC is definitely a melting pot of different cultures and different political leanings although when the elections come around, it’s predominantly a liberal group at the polls. That’s not necessarily represented in the bars and clubs though.
I’ll re-post it for you too!
Are you fucking kidding me???????
You do remember I work in the Industrial construction industry right?

SMMFH
For fucking Christ’s sake! I’m just telling one person is a grifter and not to use her as a source of you want to get perspective of how a community feels
I feel like I can slap a Trump sticker on turd and get you guys to defend turds
I have plenty of problems with Democrats and race. There wouldnt be anything worth fighting for if one party one good and the other evil and all that was necessary was waiting for for politics to shift.
When you protest discrimination, you aren’t protesting a political party or a politcal posture. You are protesting discrimination. It doesn’t matter who aligns themselves with it, whether it’s republicans or democrats
But Owens saying that BLM is a terrorist group funded by democrats is what people want to beleive that don’t want to support BLM. And the fact that a black woman os saying it is the cherry on top of the bullshit sundae
It’s a ridiculous thing to beleive that a community has to be politically sponsored terrorist to express discontent with what is going on around them. And you guys would know that if you were actually interacting with the community instead of posting YouTube clips or quoting talking heads.
I got to say, discussing race on this blog – Maybe the least productive thing I can ever do. You guys just want to argue about stuff you are not actually exposing yourself to
I wasn’t discussing “race”
So go rant at Top or Steve!
Telling me I’m to WHITE to understand the issues??????????
WTF !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
That’s the left’s talking point, it plays right into identity politics, which is the real scam, just to get people to vote for them. Just like open borders. The left politicians don’t give a rat’s ass about any of the people they claim to stand for, nor the parts of the Constitution they are trying to change, the proof is in how they live their lives vs what they tell us we should do and think.
I agree that there is racial injustice in this country, but it comes in all walks. there are black people who kill whites as there are white people who kill blacks.
Anarchy is not the solution.
there is no easy solution, you deal with it case by case.
Floyd was a thug!
the cop that allegedly killed him; when convicted will be a murderer!
that’s the truth and the truth shall set you free.
“Too” WHITE, for the grammarians.
I don’t think anyone said that.
Sensitivity and awareness. Perhaps.
If you can’t see racism in our country, you ate fucking clueless. That’s what this about. Any white who has had the “talk” is clueless or racist. Period.
From the ramblings of a histrionic dipshit.
No one thinks there isn’t racism in this country, but it’s as prevalent on the black side as it is on the white side.

Wyo – Not sure what you’re shaking your head about. I was referring to your “bar” statement, that you don’t think you’re drinking with the same people Piggy is. That’s about it bud, just explaining who you might find in a NYC bar, nothing more, nothing less. Not sure what got you so excited about it.
Well he’s a single lawyer.
I’m a married construction worker.
I don’t see many single lawyers in the bars I go to!
OK, that’s fair. I have no idea who goes to the bars you frequent in Texas and wouldn’t even hazard a guess. Do married lawyers drink there? 😉
Changing sides once doesn’t make you a grifter.
Changing sides on issues after 30 years to fit the current narrative makes you Joe biden.
Mr tough guy pushup challenger can’t even stand up, let alone do a pushup.
if Biden is elected president he will be impeached by the same method the left tried to use against Trump, The right has already stated this. what the left did at the impeachment trials is a slippery slope.
in Biden’s case there is rock solid proof unlike the lies they tried against Trump.
I doubt Biden will get elected, Trump for another 4 years.
and guess what happens after that?
our first woman president, she now resides as Senior Advisor to the President,
That’s right! Ivana in 2024!
she’s got my vote!
Lol Trump’s first wife to be president in 2024🤔
no his daughter
.jpg)
I knew who you meant, I was making a joke about what you wrote.
Ivanka is about as middle of the road as it gets, l would vote for her too, unless Ben Shapiro runs.
I don’t know how to say this delicately, but it’s obvious to me that when a lot of people on this blog talk about issues that affect minorities, they don’t actually know any.

Piggy this is the condescending statement that I took offense too.
As I told Mike above.
Your a single lawyer.

Is there a Dolphins’ game in Texas this year? If so, let’s do it . Is there something nearby, I’m there too.
Let me say this more clearly. If there is a Dolphin game you can go to, I can, too.
No game in Houston this year.

That sounds cool! Let’s do it! Do you want me to try and get tickets? If so where? We can do a sidebar and figure this out.
I think the pre-season games are still up in the air? 2 or 4? Don’t know which ones will get cancelled if any??
I’m waiting on another person to decide if they are in or not also.
We at least should wait until the Pre season is locked down?
You’re a typical hardcore leftist, that thinks anyone that doesn’t think like you and is white is a racist, water off of a ducks back.
What you say hear means nothing, your head is so far up your ass.
Visit any other country and tell them how you feel about white people in the U.S., excluding globalists, and they’ll laugh in your face, because they know what an idiot you are. Hoodwinked by leftist politicians and somehow believe the BS they’re feeding you. It’s really sad how ignorant someone can be.
The ignorant displays ignorance…LOL.
There’s a Radmussen poll out that asked blacks, whites and Hispanics, if they thought blacks, whites and Hispanics were racist. Blacks were overwhelmingly voted to be the most racist, by each group, including blacks themselves.
There is prejudice in the entire world. Isn’t that the point of this discussion?
When will there be 1 love? Oops, sorry for histrionic dipshit comment.
It starts at home. Look in the mirror.
Yes, the world would be a better place, if everyone got along, but that’s never going to happen. Trying to disgrace people, because they don’t want what you want doesn’t help anything.
I’m not in an anti-racist fight like you seem to be, and that’s fine, if that’s what you want to do, just don’t berate me, because of it. I think we need police reform, but not a defunding of the police. I believe in the law and don’t like it when politicians are corrupt or looters take advantage of innocent protestors and the rest of us. I hate media bias, it’s a dangerous thing for this country, as we’re now seeing with what the Obama admin did.
There are too many old people in this world and not enough adults.
Hmmmm….
Son — “Howie never showed” is right up there with “Scotty doesn’t know.” lol. I’m glad your lovely got the box….. and sounds like an awesome one.
Has anyone actually met Howie? Cause I’d never even heard he passed by at one of the early Fests. Miss the dude though.
Yes I met howie, we watched atl vs mia at a bar, we got beat maybe 2009
Have you kept in touch with him? He just sorta slipped away. Was he an older guy? Way it happened made me worry about his health.
I was also worried about him, 1 day out of the blue he showed up here, haven’t heard from him since.
I think he’s in his early 60s
That’s younger than would have thought. But he can do what he does. Hope that includes coming back though.
After having now read today’s posts — my comment is that you are all good guys. Reminds me of why my parents said never talk politics or religion at a dinner party. Some things even good folks will never agree on….. and gets’em going too if discussed.
that was before the LEFT “openly” wanted this once great country destroyed ……….. some of us find it difficult to witness the end of America without saying something.
That’s the fight I’m in too. Not whether the dems feel it helps them, if they stir up racial tension.
Different how two smart people can see things different ways. Cause I’m a life long GOP voter who is scared of Trump. And last I checked his folks controlled the O Val Office and the Senate. Not scared of the left at all.
You are not scared of sleepy joe?
How could you be scared of Biden? If anything he is the safe place.
He’s proven corrupt, do you really want a corrupt president?
My best hope is Trump resigns and Pence is the next Pres. Absent that will be voting Biden. We could go into it….. but think about me like one of the NeverTrumpers on the Lincoln Project.
They crossed the line when they pulled “Gone With The Wind” because of racial insensitivities……..where in the world does this shit end?
I read a comment the other day (not on here), that I thought was pretty interesting and funny, given the “I am offended by everything” era we seem to be in. It was something like: “we will know when we are progressing towards people not being offended by anything when “Blazing Saddles” is just thought of as a funny movie.
I agree with this comment.
Have reruns of All in the Family been pulled from TV yet?……wait for it………..wait for it……
I don’t even know if they are still out there, but imagine that show on a network today. Would have to include in a science fiction novel.
They are still shown on some networks, I watch it from time to time. I have to search Spectrum to find it…..was on a few months ago daily on one of the networks, but who knows now.
I’m surprised — can’t even find MASH on Uverse. That show and the Jeffersons never really caught on with me though. For whatever reason. Can say cause was young, but not when watch the repeats either. Cheers…. now we are talking (and can’t find that either).
Go ahead and blow me up but I do think this racial tension is being fueled by the far left. It is a tragedy and the cop deserves max sentence IMO but there are those who are exploiting this incident and making things much worse to make Trump look bad and don’t give a rats ass about George Floyd. In 2016, Trump only captured 8% or so of the black vote. By the end of 2019, Trump was pushing a 34.5 percent approval rating among black voters including a January Gallup poll reporting a 14 percent increase in satisfaction over race relations among Americans. The Dems saw this. First they stirred shit up with how Trump was handling COVID-19 including starting an investigation to how the admin was handling it. Now they jumped on this incident. I was having a beer with my next door neighbor this week who is black. She said she is going to vote for Trump cause she sees what is going on. She was a Democrat her whole life and now feels taken for granted, manipulated, and lied to by Democrats. Says she knows the dems are not going to fix this problem with law enforcement and race relations. Says they are just going to make more false promises and make the president look bad just to grab votes. Her words, not mine. She hopes more black people wake up. I won’t go on about what she said about the rioter and looters. She did say those people don’t give a damn about Floyd and would steal a 100 dollar bill from their own momma given the chance.
BBM — if I was you wouldn’t even worry about it. Not cause you aren’t a real smart guy but cause your vote doesn’t count. Lived places where it did and where it didn’t. Us FLA folks count….. but also means we are gonna get hit with calls till November real bad.
But yeah the left sees the whole racial justice angle as an angle. Just like Trump is going with the whole Law & Order thing.
I’m not a smart guy, but I am not stupid either. LOL
BBM — you are crafty and fun as anything. Sorry if too many negatives and turns on that one (cause didn’t end up with you stupid). But point was sometimes your vote doesn’t count. When live in Washington (NOVA) the GOP didn’t even put up a candidate for congress.
I meant to add to that first post that if my neighbor can change her mind and her views on the Democratic Party then why can’t Candace Owens. Georgia State Rep. Vernon Jones (Democrat) has said the same things as Owens and has endorsed Trump for re-election. I guess he is not allowed to change his views either.
Bookman – Little Rascals can’t be too far behind All in the Family
Good one
I also agree that this world (society) has become a butthurt society. You can’t say anything anymore w/o offending someone out there. It’s really something. The PC police are the real problem.
Yeah, it is getting tiresome.
Howie is the same age as Ken, me and BBM. Howies the youngest, his birthday is 12/1 like Piggs. Me and BBM are 5 days apart (I’m older lol) and Ken’s is Tax day.
You guys are all a year younger than me right? Technically I’m thousands of years older, but . . .
Yup and Tim and Phindog are a year younger than us.
Stanger, BBM is in the panhandle his vote counts, need a big turnout from his county.
My bad — thought he was from MS off the panhandle. Maybe my ego is too big these years on my vote counting. Sure didn’t in CT or Mass.
That’s D where you’re thinking
Stanger, Virginia is a swing state you’re votes mattered for a while but more so down here.
Didn’t matter when I was there as far as the Pres election went at least. But heck yeah times have changed there.
Bookman, I remember you said you were in Toilet Paper, you don’t by chance work in the fuzzy math department do you?
12=46
18=74
Good gig if you are.
24=106
LOL, thank god we have the benevolent, conservative right looking out for us against the malevolent, liberal left and their evil schemes. Muahaha…
Today’s blog rally brought to you by:
“Trump 2020 – Despite the constant negative press, covfefe. It’s not a slogan, it’s a lifestyle. Trump 2020 – coming this fall to a kind and white charitable nation near you, there is no escape.”
And just to be clear, I’m making a joke, not solving our national issues with a few well engineered sentences. If I’d desired to be a part of today’s wonderful conversation, I’d have posted something substantive instead of taking pot shots at Trump, lol.
Cav — what I don’t like is extremists….. left or right. But just you watch — whether if Trump loses this year or retires in 2024….. there will be a third party, a centrist one that I’ll be part of.
I would give my conservative right nut for a true centrist 3rd party that could get itself firmly entrenched into our political system. Ah, to dream…
Cav — WF Buckley used to come over to my parent’s house for dinner. Think he’d be with you and me on that one.
Son, There is a large population of retired/former military in Escambia County who are huge Trump supporters. You see quite a few Trump 2020 flags around. Don’t remember seeing any Biden flags. Maybe one Biden bumper sticker. lol The Trump rally’s here in 2016 were massive.
That’s why y’all need a large voter turnout, the big cities are big and blue.
I’ll be 55 in July if that helps with the age thing.
It does help. Knowing you’re that much older than me makes me feels a lot better about myself. Cheers! lmao

LOL
I’ll be 55 in Sept so you’re effin old 😎
Well at least we’re not as old as Mike. LOL
As you get older, you find most young people are dicks . . . 😛
Sheesh, no wonder the blog always smells like vitamins, Gold Bond medicated powder, and consists of people who can’t figure out why none of their grandchildren want to mow the lawn for a shiny new nickel. LOL
Actually, as I get older, I find most old people are dicks…
It’s true, but don’t let the young fuckers in on that. Oops, too late! Damn interwebs!
Finsmob Unleashed- where America goes to get the answers on how all problems could be solved if people would just do what middle aged white guys told them to do, now featuring a discussion on racial inequality, because hey- who knows more about racial inequality than middle-aged, knocking on social security’s door, white guys?
None of the issues today that we’re all talking about is not about politics. It’s a human condition, not which party you vote for. Humans discriminate all over the world for all sorts of reasons. We just happen to be Americans in the great melting pot experiment. It’s not easy but we’ve come a long way, and yet not so much at the same time. I took a break the last week from blogging and social media because I’m sad and tired of it.
I just find it funny that we are supposed to evolve and yet so many people dig their heels in against it.
Anybody watch The Deuce on HBO? It’s about the prostitution, political, cops, mob situation in the ‘70s in NYC. I like it, but I wonder how accurate it is. I figure one of you know-it-all NYers would know. 😄
I am an old white guy: 57. My vote and opinions still matter, do says the constitution.
Son, I am stupid, I did not get your TP comment
The marketing on the packages. There’s a pack of Cottonelle in the house right now that says 12=48 with a small picture of 4 rolls supposedly equals one alleged giant roll. I see it on paper towels too. If they divided that wimpy ass roll into four it would be the tiniest rolls ever.
Ahhh, ok. We don’t have shit like that. All of our stuff is away from home…not consumer. Kind of like 70 grit sandpaper… JK….. maybe

Not the biggest fan of southern rock, but there are a few from these guys that I’ve always liked:
Loved that band in my teens.
Then I was not a big fan of. Dunno why. Same with Little Feat. My older brothers loves them.
The way things are going right now, this song seems somewhat appropo:
Another oldie I’ve always liked:
Oops:
strangelhold ted nugent
LMAO, I’ve (been drinking since 3 and am goo d and lit. I thought typing the name of song and artist in the post comment box would bring the video up
I thought it was a request and was copying it to paste lol
lol
If any of you are fans of double entendre and innuendo:
Not the best version I’ve heard
All I can say is, just when you thought you had seen everything! chicago is in ruins , walmart there was destroyed,walmart along with other major stores said they wont be reopening there and the dem mayor is cheering these looters on!
What about the people who owned businesses in the CHAZ zone?
And the mayor of Seattle is routing these thugs on
Reality is stranger than science fiction
I know for all you muscle head democrats it’s gonna take more than CHAZ to change your mind about current events. What if they turned dolphin stadium into a CHAZ zone, and wouldn’t let the games go on? I’m sure all these muscle head Dems would be in it uproar on this page. reality doesnt hit home unless you have something at stake. no way do i vote left!
I had seen Pelosi take a knee, that is very laughable, she’s just trying to get votes for the left that’s all that’s about. these dems dont give a rats ass about injustice . theyre just using the next crisis to land votes.
Let’s support looting and RIOTING because that will get us votes
To hell with the people it is actually hurting
LMAO @ Kong goo d and lit .
The democratic party is very apparent, they will stop at nothing to get into office. impeachment didnt work lets try covid and now social injustice.
