In reply to rmrd: I get so goddamn mad at

Richard, enjoy the humor in knowing that Donald Trump wanted the fame of owning an NFL team. Most owners didn't want him in the league. Remember the USFL? The reason you don't is that Trump bought the New York Generals USFL team. He convinced other USFL owners to go head to head against the NFL. The USFL died a quick death thanks to Trump. When it came to the NFL, Trump made the "brilliant" decision to pass on a chance to buy the New England Patriots. The Patriots are now the second most profitable team in the NFL. Trump killed the USFL and was too dumb to buy the Patriots. He brings his sports business skill to the Presidency.

Edit to add:

Sen. James Langford says Russia no trolls are using # TakeAKnee and #BoycottNFL to sow discord in the United States.Trump still gets help from the Russians.

In reply to Trump said Obama wasn't born

rmrd: I get so goddamn mad at this orange haired idiot!

Free speech.

And yet, as you put it; this asshole would somehow impede the right to state something that would be clear to all of us. That is: All free speech is good except when it offends ME. HA

Good point!

In reply to Read the black Afghan war vet

Trump said Obama wasn't born in the United States and called for imprisoning Hillary. He could do this because of free speech. Now Trump uses the flag that says embodies the rights soldiers died for to suppress the freedom of speech of others detailed in the Constitution. Insanity.

In reply to John Urschel, former

I do not follow football very well, but I have some memory of this story.

What if you were 26 with millions of bucks in your future.

Urschel said: No dice?

Damn!

I recall some quote from Dave Chappelle a few years ago when he turned down 50 mill and retired to his newly purchased ranch/farm.

Chappelle was at some fine dining facility.

He pointed to some feller at another table.

Dave noted that that personage was worth 100 million?

And he thought:

Hell, that guy has a hundred million and I only have ten million and yet, we are both eating the same dinner.

Now Chappellle is back; I mean he is doing stand-up and appearing on TV including SNL.

I think about him sometimes.

Greed.

It is a subject all by itself.

That is all I got.

Oh NCD!

In reply to The CTE reference reminds me

The CTE reference reminds me

In reply to Peracles, I recall a Life Mag

The CTE reference reminds me that a neuroscientist is allowing his son to play contact football. He cites data that other diseases like epilepsy are associated with CTE. In addition, NFL players have a lower incidence of violent death and suicide than the general population

Neuroscientist

NFL suicide rate

http://journals.sagepub.com/doi/abs/10.1177/0363546516645093

What does one do with the data, The neuroscientist focuses on the NFL fails to mention the full findings of the study

Results Among 202 deceased former football players (median age at death, 66 years ...), CTE was neuropathologically diagnosed in 177 players ... including 0 of 2 pre–high school, 3 of 14 high school (21%), 48 of 53 college (91%), 9 of 14 semiprofessional (64%), 7 of 8 Canadian Football League (88%), and 110 of 111 National Football League (99%) players. Neuropathological severity of CTE was distributed across the highest level of play, with all 3 former high school players having mild pathology and the majority of former college (27 [56%]), semiprofessional (5 [56%]), and professional (101 [86%]) players having severe pathology. Among 27 participants with mild CTE pathology, 26 (96%) had behavioral or mood symptoms or both, 23 (85%) had cognitive symptoms, and 9 (33%) had signs of dementia. Among 84 participants with severe CTE pathology, 75 (89%) had behavioral or mood symptoms or both, 80 (95%) had cognitive symptoms, and 71 (85%) had signs of dementia.

It may be that only a minority of participants in football develop CTE, but the study though biased (only brains of symptomatic people studied) could be suggesting that the longer you play the more people are at risk for CTE.

In reply to I think his Puerto Rico stuff

rmrd, I cannot find it right now but I wrote years ago about representing a Puerto Rican in Civil Court.

The gist of the post had to do with the fact that my client was a US Citizen, by fiat involving Congress and the then sitting President.

Citizens of Puerto Rico are citizens of the United States of America.

Birth Certificates provide certification just like Texans or Oklahomans or Alabamans.

Either we recognize American Citizens as part of US or we shirk our duties as American Citizens.

WHO ARE THE REAL PATRIOTS AFTER ALL?
