I know this is irrational , but now I’m worried for the Bills . BOTH road teams won yesterday ; because that unlikely event occurred , what are the chances that the Bills will continue that pattern? I hope they’re not jinxed now !!

I love Buffalo , but you gotta be impressed with Joe Burrows poise in the Titans game , right .

I question the Ttians offense in big games.

So sorry to hear that ; hope he makes a full recovery .

Yes Sir , and it goes both ways , of course , left and right .

That certainly should not be commemorated.

That is true and might be an actual solution to the problem in many cases ; having said that, does that mean that ALL statues must be place ONLY in museums so that NOONE is offended ? I don’t know . I don’t think so , but wanted to throw it out there to get others thoughts on this . I agree but that doesn’t mean they’re parallel issues, right? I mean , Stonewall Jackson was an American Traitor , without a doubt, but was also a pious , virtuous man by all accounts ; moreover , he demonstrated clearly that he was a military genius during the war in the use of defensive minded tactics , his methods studied for years at West Point , VMI , etc. Nobody can say anywhere near the same thing about Floyd . Those that venerate Floyd and wish to commemorate him are motivated exclusively for the reason he that he was a black man who was a victim of police brutality - period . Is that a good enough reason for commemoration ?

That’s just weird. I think you should stick to posts like the one earlier today with the black girl / evil white guy thing - made a lot more sense….

They’re good , but less plentiful around here . Used to love to bag them when growin up in the north country .

Oh, ok so you clean right away then? Do you do it in the boat as you catch them ?

And where’d you get that ? I want one !!

Interesting - I would love to see it for sure .

Well, I would like to believe that FOX would cover it the same , but i'm not so sure that they would. Something tells me I need to not let myself get so easily riled up!! That is an excellent example and I have no answer or rebuttal. Well done Sir!!

I guess its the emphasis thats placed on that news item but you make a valid point there, my friend.

I believe I did see this reported on FOX ,actually; Ill go have to go back and look though as could be wrong.

Sure I can because it hasnt been validated that the big 2 liberal networks are covering it to the same degree that FOX is. If local news agencies were covering it but was barely mentioned by CNN or MSNBC , whereas FOX covered regualrly, that is a profound difference in coverage that may satisfy my description of it as being : barely a peep in ocmparison. Also, are you suggesting that the murder is not worth of several days of coverage ? I find it to be very newsworthy and should broadcast repeatedly for sometime , considering the callous, heinous and brutal nature of the crime , and also because it underscores the point that cities are becoming increasinglt less safe and more crime ridden that are soft on srime , policies mostly supported by Democrats. I dont think theyre trying to terrify their viewers at all; conversely, if CNN/MSNBC are barely mentioning, are they prioritizing the news appropraitely? I guess it depends upon their audience base and reflects it perfectly in terms of their values and their world view - in that, i'm sure we agree.

Wait: Can you find continued coverage of the incident including yesterday and today on MSNBC orCNN? Again, FOX is covering the hell out of it and has been every day since it happened. I wanna see evidence of parallell coverage on their netwroks;If you can, I will concede to you that I jumped to conclusions in regards to this particular issue and that I was wrong.

No Sir, you're wrong. Read it again!!

Youre assumption is kind of a stretch aint it? What i'm saying is, statues are normally erected in veneration of and/or for individuals/events, etc. that are viewed positively, not negatively. We do not agree, i'm afraid. Simply put: Teddy Roosevelt statue: yes, George Floyd statue: no.

Cincy? Wow- Brave Man!!!

Should we also then erect a statue of other dishonorable people like you described? Ted Bundy? Adolf Hitler? Theyre both a part of American history as well- would it also make sense?

I was referring to the TV coverage , not local news. Also, I was referring to the narrative. Also, If you look again at my post , it was more of a prediction than a declaration, based on thier lack of commentary on the Parade massacre. Read it again.

Ok, so heres my NFC picks for this weekend: Packers 26- 49ers 13 Bucs 31- Rams 27

Oh shot , you’re right !! Gotta redo the NFC now lol

Really ? I like Bengals but Burrows too new to this IMHO
