Agreed. In the 1970s a movie like A Clockwork Orange was an art film. Today it would be the #1 blockbuster.

That's a massive, unsolvable puzzel.

Yup. One terrible unsolvable puzzle for sure.

Since going off the Gold Standard, inflation has created an enormous wealth inequality gap as well. Stimulates crime.
- Swedish_Jesus

I do think wealth inequality does stimulate crime, but I'm not so sure the Gold Standard is as big of a contributor to it. I get the argument, but society has always had a handful of people that are good with money, and a vast majority of people who aren't. With the advancement of technology, particularly the internet, people would have found a way around the Gold Standard as well.

This is so false it's hysterical

"Top 5 QB" is

23rd in yards per pass
26th in completion percentage
29th in yards passing per game
23rd in total sacks despite only playing in 12 of 17 games
9th in qb rating adjusted
16th in qb rating
24 games in the last 2 years.

RB Playing QB

Something about availability

Not even ten fatalities. Amateur.

nashville cops can't tell the difference between a teen and a 28 year old

I'm glad; however, the fact remains Americans have lived with guns since before there was America. The 2nd Amendment has been around since 1789. We never had a mass shooting problem until 1999.

Something changed.
- lacaprup

You're right about this, but it's not video games. There is a concerted, well-funded, documented effort, that has been ongoing for a long time to push Americans to beg the gov to take away their rights, specifically the 1st and 2nd amendments.

You could also separate gun homicide rates per 100k people by racial group, and you would find that some groups have rates much higher than others.. for instance, US whites have a gun homicide rate of 1.7 per 100k - same as Czech Repub., lower than Canada, France, Austria, Finland, etc.

But no one wants to have that conversation.

Yeah that was weird.
At least they didn't wait an hour like Uvalde cops.

I love Josh Allen and I am happy he is a Bill and I would take him over Lamar but

Jackson has a better career passing percentage, better career td/int percentage, and a better passing rating.

Lamar's numbers would be higher if they threw the ball more, I mean Allen has 50 less completions than Jackson has total attempts.

Not trying to sound like a d-bag but 99% of the school tragedies are white males no?

Or teach your children about the Dangers of guns and responsibilities. Do stuff with them, don't let them lock themselves in a room for 10hrs playing Call of Duty or other Violent games every day. Don't let them roam the streets. Do some parenting, Boss I don't discuss what you do with your Family, don't worry about what I do with mine.
- Buff36

You opened up the conversation, by bringing your family / gun situation up.

Mass assault guns shouldnt be legal.

My kids get this...

one qb plays hurt

other qb does not even travel with team because he was "sick"


does any of this come into play on the conversation or is it swept under the rug


he must have been sick 25 times or more over the past few years skipping practice

Part of that, though, is that Allen's stats in 2018 were atrocious. The beginning of 2019 wasn't that great either. Lamar Jackson was far more polished than people realized.

combine every restrictive law on the entire planet and bring it here. now we can all (frank) off and stop hearing each other's stupid bullpoop and just exist in emptiness.

- buffalofan19

Throw out those numbers and their pretty similar. People just want to hang on the RB playing QB narrative. Jackson is a good passer just in a bad system that doesn't throw a lot.

As far as skipping the playoff game in Cinci, I mean the writing was on the wall then, that he wanted out.

That doesn't mean he isn't a good QB though.

There not, it's the stuff you can find after that that makes them assault weapons.

Andrews averages the same yards per reception as Travis Kelce
