I still think it's going to be the Patriots by at least 14. Brady is just too good. Definitely the best quarterback in the league, quite possibly the greatest quarterback ever.
I'm hoping he announces his retirement so the Steelers can run the AFC the next few years.

^^ No idea.
Clip from ORs interview with Trump tomorrow.
Jesus Christ. That's going to go over so well

Keep an eye on Tommy Carcetti.
He really cleaned up Baltimore

Flagg you're wrong. WH is admitting it was "lighthearted" comments to Mexico.
https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/the … 3cc7cb45e0
Trump threatened — his administration insisted it was "light-hearted" — Mexican President Enrique Peña Nieto with sending American troops into his country.Guess the tables have turned. You're the one believing "fake news". In reading the LATimes article, all it says is the Mexican President said he "never was threatened". Semantics, so you gotta learn to read between the lines on this stuff.
It's not true. Or it's taken completely out of context to portray something it obviously wasn't.
How was I wrong again? The news article took it completely out of context, running headlines Trump threatens to invade Mexico.

I guarantee he's embarrassed over the military death and does a major Isis strike within 2 months. If well contrived, I'm fine with it. Only problem, Trump hasn't done much "Well contrived" so far. It'll be invade, bomb, then figure it out.
Australia denied that Trump hung up or the call wasn't cordial. This is fake news bullshit by a media that desperately wants to push the narrative the 4th Reich is on the rise, failing to acknowledge if that were remotely true they wouldn't be allowed to be on the air. Iran is trying to get nukes. Obama's weak ass handed them that ability with a smile. And now Trump is the bad guy for saying we won't tolerate a nuclear Iran?
It's not fake news. Because there is denial to save embarrassment. The pee tape isn't fake, but unsubstantiated. You're this rube falling for Trump's fake news shit. What big is saying makes sense.
Denial to save embarrassment? By both countries. Well fuck, I guess every story about Trump is true and we can just dismiss claims from the only groups able to validate as denial to avoid embarrassment.

It's fake news, and as long as the media cries wolf, the less they'll be believed when something real happens.
The pee tape was fake. Obama even asked why the intelligence agencies were showing it to him when they know it was bullshit. Don't go down the conspiracy road. We already have one truther on the forum. We don't need another.

As someone in media, lemme tell you what we're hearing.
Leaks are coming from within Trump's inner circle. Some are legit. Some are deliberately incorrect so Trump team and supporters can yell "fake news." That leads us to arguments like we have here on this forum. We don't discuss if what Trump is doing is sound leadership; we discuss if it's real.
There's a strong theory Bannon is behind it all, mixing disinformation with the real news to obfuscate the truth, whatever it is. The end game, and anyone can figure this out, is to discredit all media except for ardent supporters.
Just what i'm hearing. Carry on.
So is the media going to run with every BS story they get or are they going to continue and Dan Rather themselves into non-relevance?

LOL at this

Uhmm, it def doesn't surprise me about Mexico. Again, I don't think it meant he's going to war with them, plus there's probably some form of whisper down the lane, but again its the jyst of it which is stupid. There was an article a while back that Trump was "livid" over some leaks which got out from within his circle. Anyway I said it before, the Iran thing is scarier than Mexico.
When you say Iran is scarier, do you mean Obama trying to pass a treaty without Senate approval? Or do you mean Iran already violating said treaty by launching missiles. When will you acknowledge Obama's foreign policy was abysmal and was far more damaging to US interests than denying people from Somalia access to the US for 90 days.

Apples to oranges. These are people who are the antithesis of the positions they seek. If you don't believe in global warming you should not head up the EPA. If you want to abolish a certain department, but are too stupid to remember which one it is, you shouldn't then be put in charge of it. If you want to privatize schools you shouldn't run the Dept of Ed.
Not sure what's so puzzling about that.
Has he actually said that he doesn't believe in Global Warming, or is this like Pelosi saying that Gorsuch doesn't care about children's education because he ruled that an autistic child who screams, runs around naked and shits on the floor isn't entitled to an education that attempts to pretend he will ever be normal? Saying you don't believe we should decimate our energy industry because a bunch of people who couldn't draw the structure of a CO2 molecule believe the world is ending isn't the same as saying there is no evidence the Earth is slightly warming.
We both voted for the candidate who said she was going to put a lot of coal miners out of work, but I'm sure even you can understand why that is a problematic proposal if for no other reason that anything outside of carbon based energy isn't remotely feasible at this point. Maybe you should prod the Bernie and environmental nutters to back nuclear.
