I honestly won't be surprised if the young QBs struggle against the defense in the spring game. Based on last year, the defense is light years ahead of the offense, and returns a lot of production. This offense might as well be in year one again because it won't look anything like it did when HH was QB1. I think the young guys will flash some real potential but overall have an underwhelming performance, which will send the fanbase into a spiral. I expect the offense to look more like a well oiled machine week 1 then it will in the spring game.

And really the year one offense was for Jeff Simms.

Yeah….its interesting that I post a tweet from an actual expert explaining three ways it can happen and then explains why there is no evidence that it is happening in a wide scale systemic way. He picks out one short sentence and says, “see, he says it’s happening”. I then refer to the same tweet explaining again why there is no evidence it’s happening on a wide scale. And he comes back with, “well, you must not know what ballot harvesting is.”

 

Such an interesting way to carry on a conversation. 

Yep

Archy thinks ballot harvesting is bad but can't explain why.

On this one very limited issue Archy is correct. States have different rules and limits. In Colorado, one person can deliver/turn in up to 10 ballots. Anyone the voter determines to deliver for them is okay. Nebraska has no specific rules. Other states limit this activity to only relatives or caregivers and some states have different numbers of ballots specified. I presume the laws are to prevent the illicit kind of ballot harvesting that some believe to be the reason that Republicans don’t actually win every election in a landslide.

I know there are different rules in different states. I'm asking Archy why there are rules against turning in ballots that are filled out by the voter.

So apparently you don’t actually know what ballot harvesting is.

 

ballot harvesting in a practical sense is going around to people who normally do not vote and who get mail in ballots.  You got to those people who have not returned a ballot and ask them to vote and you will turn the ballot in for them.  These people have no intention of voting till this process happened. In many states this isn’t legal if it isn’t a relative or if it gets past 4-5 ballots.  
 

for some reason you keep talking about something else.   Actually I probably know the reason and that’s to conflate the actual issue. 

Why would it be illegal to turn in someone's ballot that they actually filled out?

I really think that defense will be nasty.  In fact, I am betting UTEP ends up with under 50 yards rushing in the first game.  

It might take a few games for the defense to hit their stride, so under 50 against UTEP is a bit optimistic I'd say, but certainly possible.

I feel like 75% of the people who hated it think that nothing on the island ever happened, even though it flat out says in the last episode that it all happened. I think the other 25% just don't like the Christiany ending.

It was because during season 1 a bunch of fans guessed the ending (which I won't spoil for anyone) and the producers stated that it wasn't. So a lot of people were confused/annoyed because they lied about what was happening. Plus when they get off the island but then have to go back really was terrible writing, which was when I stopped watching.

Yeah, tell what it's "really like". Or what war is really like. People that want peace clearly know less about it than you.

I’ve been a proponent for a very long time that RSO’s RSU’s, etc should be more broadly used and whatever the C Suite level folks qualify for, every other employee should qualify for on an equivalent basis.  
 

It isn’t the salaries that have driving the income gap, it’s the stock awards that only a few are privy too.   If what I’m saying is considered Marxism, then I’m part Marxist I guess.  

As long as the stock comes with voting rights (I believe those are Class A stocks), then I agree as well.

The people whose jimmies are in a bunch over this aren't actually affected in any way. They still had their Easter just like normal, they didn't see or interact with any trans people at their family gathering, they weren't forced to do anything related to this proclamation at all.

 

But boy, are they BIG MAD about this thing that had nothing to do with them whatsoever.

 

They remind me of toddlers throwing a tantrum.

But we should TOTALLY take them seriously.

I feel like this is not really a big deal it is just giving people something to b!^@h out.   Had he moved it, people would have b!^@hed about that.

 

I was at an easter gathering yesterday with like 40 people.  No one mentioned it at all.

 

We did find out that a friend found out her live in boyfriend banged her sister.  Not sure if there is a day for that.

for #1) this kinda is how I view it too.

For #2) he coulda maybe possibly just took ownership of it instead of denying it.  
 

He coulda also said “hey, in honor of the upcoming Easter Holiday, we are gonna proclaim this day on Saturday this year while also remembering the 25 other days of remembrance coming up later in the year. 
 

For #3) if we are gonna make a funny, then It’s not very inclusive of him to deny a press release about all the other days of remembrance if we are going for inclusiveness. 
 

 

Biden did not pick the date of an international day. Nor could he move it to another date. All he did was recognize that it exists.

The pearl clutching over this is partisan nonsense.

Is it inclusive if you really think about it?  It’s celebrating one single group of people.   It’s excluding everyone else for celebratory greetings.  

This is a ridiculous post even for you.

I’m not blaming anyone, nor am I defending so called Christians who would take offense at a message of tolerance and inclusion. It’s just at this point I’m more concerned with the effect of the message on the election and I don’t see it gaining anything for Biden and it potentially helps push some the other way.

 

Yeah, I know in normal times this is not something to take any issue with. But times aren’t normal and I’d rather they were a little more cognizant of how these types of things may impact certain voters. I wouldn’t guess there are too many who could go either way and this is an issue that has a pretty well defined battle line. I just see it as one that gains them nothing but possibly alienates a few more.  I don’t want to placate idiots or haters but I will if it helps keep orange man away. I could be wrong…it’s happened once or twice before 

I suppose if you're only focused on the election to exclusion of all else, then sure. But there's more to life. Don't sweat the morons and don't worry about non-issues like this - it's not going to affect anyone's vote IMO.

Who cares whether it was chosen as a direct affront?  It is on Easter,  is it not. 

If that's your beef, then you need to move your faux outrage to whoever made Easter a floating date.

Yes, a holiday that provided them an opportunity to not alienate more potential voters. I guess the $64,000 question is if it helped gain more than it lost. My bet is it was a net loss.

 

Anyway…

Biden being inclusive somehow alienated Christians. I think your blaming the wrong people here.

Oh no! Some holidays occurred at the same time!

Anyway...

EV battery mining is a scourge on the very Earth we want to save.

And yet coal mining is and was much, much worse, but we've been doing it for over a century. Oil drilling is also extremely harmful as is natural gas drilling and fracking.

The giant advantage battery mining has over those others is that the battery components can be recycled, so the mining needed will become very small over the long term.

I read that the EV mandate by 2030 would manage to cut emissions by .20%. Yes, the decimal is in the correct spot. Will see if I can find it again.

That's definitely wrong. I'd be interested in where you got that. I think it's close to 20%, so the decimal is probably in the wrong place.
