Wrong again. The 'topic' was white anger at a progressive moment for the country.


Conflating unrelated issues and pretending they are one and the same does not make me wrong.

Even though you admitted it. Tough for a condescending person to do.

Wow, this place really sucks now! Used to be a great place to talk football, but now it is a reflection of the country, one group outshouting the other, can you guess which one is making the loudest noise? Too bad, I liked it here, even when it got a little rough we managed to pull it together, but now, well..... Good luck!

Agreed and well put

Bill what am I supposed to do. Let them shout the loudest and go into hiding. I did that on the COVID thread. I get sick of them always thinking they won because they were the nastiest and the loudest. The hatred coming from that group of people is almost unbelievable.

I hear ya and agree with your entire post.

But i don't think abandoning the discussion equals that the loud mouths won.

The amount of hatred they spew i find almost comical.

This is a shame because their was actually some real football to be discussed.

I'll take my football talk to another site until this one returns to normal.

I avoid politics like the plague normally. I think the only elections I have participated in is one I voted for George Sr. when the polling was literally across the street from my house. The other was voting for Jesse for Governor of Minnesota. Sometimes I've had enough though and the horrible hatred being spread by these people was more than I could tolerate. Sorry to those who had to put up with it. I'm out. They can think they've won again.

Thanks. I appreciate it. I am out on this conversation, but it's not even politics. It's simply hate. I feel like the King of Rohan when he said what can people do against such hate. What the World Needs now Is Hate Sweet Hate... Sarcasm.

The old "I don't follow politics" to dismiss pages of posts showing being staked in the far right, FOLLOWED by the old "All the hate by 'these' people" to dismiss pages of posts hating and name calling right back AND even admitting it!

You cannot make that up!

Well that's true, sometimes I have to school you and let you know you've been schooled.

Glad you are still here after the thread's shortest ever bowing out period.

In the future, I will PM you if I have capitalization issues. You are the Capitalization King!!

Wait, should Capitalization King have been capitalized?

You just made my point. Comparing her going to school to Kaep disrespecting our Nation, Flag and Anthem ( I capitalized them all) Grow up you intolerant baby.

Actual person integrating a campus during incendiary times when people are being killed for such things being terrorized by a racist mob vs. failing to deify symbols of a nation that is failing to live up to its core promise of equal protection.




BOHUMM WTH...move it to an appropriate thread.

Just because you don't like the fact that this is a part of Vikings talk these days doesn't mean that it's not. This started because I suggested Kap as backup QB and Bruce made it political.


Oh yeah.

Yeah, not a good day for you. When will our all-healing t-shirts be ready? Are you getting them from China? Any tariffs?

T-shirts were probably on my mind because I am starting a printing business. No joke. Cotton shirts from China are too expensive, although I might get some 100% poly shirts there. I think I will get my cotton and cotton-blend shirts from Bangladesh or India. So now you know.

Pretty exciting that we could have my all-healing shirts in stock by Black Friday. And I think there will probably still be some need for healing at that point. I can ship my first one to you.

Restructuring is a waste. I imagine it will be a Griffith situation; pay cut and opt out. Why would Reiff agree to this? Next year the market might be brutal for veterans and it will only save us a few million this year.

If Oneil and Udoh are our Ts, we still have tons of depth in Hill, Ezra, and even Collins and Dozier.

I think Bill proposed the lineup I would go with:

Hill/Ezra, Best of the rest, Bradbury, Udoh, Oneil.

We still have a ton of line flexibility. In the above - I'd also cut Elf, but that's never gonna happen.

I prefer from left to right

O'Neal
Clev
Bradbury
Anybody but Elf
Udoh


So it wasn't Jandro agreeing to Pager's lineup.

Mine may have been Reiff/Ezra, Best of the rest, Bradbury, Udoh, O'Neill. But with us needing to find cap $, Reiff could be gone. In which case, Hill/Ezra unless O'Neill can find success in a very fast crash course.

Calling the talk hateful is just like Trump calling a reg question from a reporter nasty. Some want the talk squashed bc they don't want change. Just bc it makes you uncomfortable doesn't mean it's hateful or nasty.

No t-shirt for you! Nothing speaks to patriotism like a Canadian draped in a close approximation to the American flag, but you've lost your USA flag color privileges!

Does anyone know anything about him? Will he be a projected starter?

i'm surprised we can't trade him....


Chris Tomasson@christomasson
Pro Football Talk reports #Vikings guard Riley Reiff has told teammates that he expects to be cut. That would clear $8.8 million in salary-cap room for the Vikings and would leave them with $4.4 million in dead money. Would make Brian O'Neill likely starting left tackle.
