We live in a world where Oakland is a favorite for the SB?
Parity...how I love thee....
I still cant hardly believe they're going to Vegas. That is going to be bizarre.
Where did you see Oakland is a favorite. Maybe the AFC West, but I think they're behind NE, Pit and KC. I'm sure they'll make the playoffs, but the Texans, Steelers, Pats, Chiefs and whoever gets the 6th seed are all going to be tough.

Anything can happen. But Brady's 40. When have they given up 42 points?

I don't know how you could just displace the oxygen out of the air, and how that would help mitigate a hurricane when 70% of the air is nitrogen. I'm sure there's some chemical reaction that could be created to target the oxygen, but the element itself isn't a factor here, it's the high velocity winds. Oxygen is more flammable than nitrogen, so you conceivably burn the oxygen and convert it to thermal energy in a closed environment, but in a hurricane that would be virtually impossible since you can't create a border limiting nearby oxygen from flowing in. A nuclear bomb's shock-wave would create a vacuum that would remove all air and disrupt the pressure system, but a slight miscalculation of detonation and we're creating a tsunami.

I'm going with Pittsburgh over Atlanta. Yep.
Not a good game for my Patriots obviously. Defense needs a lot of work and the offense certainly missed Edelman last night. On the bright side I have Kareem Hunt on two fantasy teams so they're off to a good start. Unfortunately I have the New England D on another so I'll be hitting the waiver wire next week. I have Vinatieri on a few teams and I'm worried the Colts offense could be so bad without Luck they might not even get into FG range often.
As for a SB prediction, I'd like to say New England over Green Bay. One game doesn't necessarily change my mind but Oakland would be my backup pick in the AFC.
I have Hunt too. Got me 41 points yesterday.
On new england, this is all I have to say:

Good idea.
Maybe my old idea to drop bombs in the eye of hurricanes will finally catch on.
I'm no physicist, but my assumption is the only conventional bomb big enough to disrupt the pressure system would have to be nuclear. I don't see them supporting detonating airborne bombs over the ocean at any point.

What lawsuits do you think will come from this? I understand we live in a litigious society where people sue McDonalds for making them fat, but if you live on the coast, hurricanes are an annual reality and risk.

I saw Milo posted this on Facebook yesterday. I found it funny

That's okay. I post them there too.

I said it at the top of my post. I'm not denying it. Are you denying you took my private photos and posted them at your site?
Malice is a bit strong, but yea I was an asshole. I apologized for it then, and I'll do so now. I'm still waiting for you to apologize for taking and putting my photos on your site.
And yes, I saved the webpage too. Like I said, I take threats very seriously.
But nothing I did was illegal then and you knew it. You just wanted to scare a 24 year old who was terrified of getting in trouble for internet bullshit and getting kicked out of the army.
Again, it all tied back to Brody. He just looked up who your website was registered to. It's public domain. If you look up this site, it'll show whomever registered the domain. Presumably Lofton.
Anyway, I've made my point. I'd appreciate if you didn't repeatedly call me a liar when you know I'm trying to be as logical as possible in my posts. I'm not interested in fighting with you or Mitch. I actually have respect for the entrepreneurial spirit you both have. I wish I had the balls to work for myself and take that risk. But I don't.
We had some good discussions when Obama was in office at here and your site.
