The scene where Maximus takes off his helmet and does the monologue to the emperor is one of my favorites. It's up there with Liam Neeson on the phone in Taken.

Bijan has been great but the difference between him and a second round RB isn't all that big. The difference between Carter and a second round DT is massive. The character concerns for Carter were over blown. He did something stupid in street racing but if that's an epidemic now in college...

Have you gone to RFKs organization's site? It's absolutely bonkers. Take away the science (that completely refutes their positions), just the number of logical fallacies they tout as proof is stunning. Their chief argument against vaccines is that diagnoses of chronic illnesses in children have...

I fully expect the guy who runs an anti-vax organization to continue his campaign against vaccinations as head of the HHS. I doubt he's competent enough to be terribly successful but still. Ask yourself honestly, if Biden had nominated him for this post, how would you feel? Would you commend...

So RFK Jr is going to run the HHS. This is awesome! The first step on our journey to back to a 30% infant mortality rate! Gotta get rid of all those vaccines keeping our kids from getting easily prevented childhood illnesses. Winning!

If everything is so easy to fix, why didn't Trump fix it during his first term?

"Leave the gun, take the Enoli." -Alex Anthopoulos

I don't get the point of this trade. Allen has been below replacement level over the past two years. Guys like him aren't hard to find even mid season.

I've never understood people getting excited and fanboying over a politician. I didn't get it with Obama, I didn't get it with people freaking out over Harris, and I don't get it with Trump. Politicians should be viewed with suspicious bordering on contempt. These people are asking you to give...

People overestimate the power of the president.

Judging by some stuff I'm reading, the lesson learned will be to double down and pull farther left. The lesson should be to center their campaign on issues that are important to people and take positions on them with wide appeal. If you're struggling to pay for groceries you're not really...

I've been reading post mortems of the election from liberals. There's a common thread I'm finding that the left will have to get away from to win consistently. Democratic candidates and pundits too often try to cast groups as single issue voters. White women? They're being called traitors...

Brutal no calls on the two points conversion attempt by the Bengals. It's difficult to believe the refs just missed multiple obvious penalties on that play.

This is true. I'll add that the policy they did talk about didn't resonate with people. The Dems went heavy on abortion which, according to one poll, was the top issue of only 14% of people. The economy is virtually always the top issue and this year was no different. Inflation has eaten...

For those looking for a silver lining, a clear Harris victory or a clear Trump victory were the two best scenarios for American democracy. No matter who the victor was, a contested election would have been devastating for our political system.

Fox has called the race for Trump

If these results hold, and there's no indication they won't, this is a friggin indictment of the Democrats. How do you lose to a convicted felon who is a known womanizer and is elderly on top of everything else? They need to stop focusing on Trump and start focusing on what has caused so many...

I've avoided this part of the forum for a while, as well as news in general, for mental health reasons. Tonight has drawn me back. Georgia being called before 1AM is huge. This was a state people were gearing up for litigation over. Betting odds well over 90% for Trump currently. Wow. For the...

The stats don't lie. The Falcons have a bottom 10 defense. They've given up the 9th most yards and 10th most points in spite of having a good offense that doesn't have a lot of 3 and outs. They've given up the 11th most passing yards so the secondary isn't elite and 8th most rusing yards so...

That defense's problem isn't just a lack of talent, it's hideously coached. A lot of Falcons fans are already ready to run Lake out of town (I think that's a little unfair as it's really Morris' unit and gameplan). When your head coach's own side of the ball is this terrible, it's a bad sign. A...
