10. So the educators didn't do a good enough job of propagandizing students to YOUR point of view - they still care more about their LIVES than things like freedom, due process, etc.? It still smacks of ELITISM to me - YOU know better than the "dumbass majority" who think differently.

I expect lunacy in here from these Libertarian/anarchist/whatever types who wouldn't know the meaning of priority if it bit them in the ass hahahaha, but fortunately, there is a population out there that allows common sense to be the rule - loss of life AND loss of freedom trumps mere loss of freedom - which in point of fact, isn't even happening. Who among us - REALISTICALLY - not letting your paranoia run wild, feels any less free because of the TSA or any other provisions of the Patriot Act? I can honestly say, I have NOT been affected one iota - but then I don't have a secret drug stash or a marijuana crop in the backyard or a thriving criminal enterprise hahahaha.

I don't fly much, so yeah, my freedoms haven't been infringed upon too much. But then again, I'm not loony teabagger who listens to Beck, Rush, and O'reilly - for "knowledge".

We in this country - with the exception of a few reverse ethnocentrists like you, Dakota, CARE about the valuable blood of our own - and in many cases, myself absolutely included, don't give a damn about the blood of trash people killing other trash people in their own trash countries.

Beck you're probably right. His outlook is pretty loony, much like the paranoid bunch in this forum. O'Reilly and Rush, however, are pretty well grounded in their priorities - rights and freedoms being important, but paling to insignifcance in comparison to risking lives.

But the real stupidity of this, I say again, is that nobody is giving up any rights and freedoms anyway - unless they are a druggie or criminal, and FOR SURE, those precious rights and freedoms the paranoia crowd is so worried about would be down the toilet in the aftermath of a major terrorist event. How dense can you guys be not to realize that?

What gets me, with the plethora of PARANOIA being posted in here about stuff that ain't happening anyway or ain't affecting anybody of the good normal people, nobody in here seems to get upset about the LITTLE stuff that really does affect all of us every day. I started a thread about this, and it got practically no response. I'm talking about the stupid damn seat belt and child seat laws, the veritable outbreak of new stoplights, and worse, left turn signals - for what? to give an advantage to the less competent drivers while they delay and annoy all the good normal people. And that annoying extra couple of seconds after a damn red light before it turns green the other way! Also, so so many idiotic local rules and regulations intruding into our lives - REAL instead of theoretical shit like harm from the Patriot Act. Doesn't THAT SHIT which really does affect your life irritate you paranoid guys? And NONE of that stupid shit ever gets voted on; It is just put in effect - ho hum - by God damned bureaucrats - who think they know more than the good normal people who are being inconvenienced. You guys rant and whine and rant and whine about stuff that has absolutely no effect on your daily life, and then seemingly no outrage over this rapidly expanding shitstorm of intrusive small-time stuff.

Otherwise, if you can put it together and pull it off, give me a time and place and I'm there. 😃

Martha Careful (4h) : meh

Zero2Cool (8h) : Sounds like Walker and Wyatt will be with Packers for beyond 2026

Zero2Cool (8h) : It's so awesome.

Zero2Cool (8h) : new site fan shout post fast

wpr (11h) : Slow posting in Fan shout.

wpr (11h) : Only 4

Zero2Cool (14h) : If only we had a topic to read about and discuss it. That's something new website must have!!!

dfosterf (14h) : Justice Musqueda over at Acme Packing put up an excellent synopsis of the Packers 1st round options this am

wpr (19-Apr) : 5 days

beast (18-Apr) : 6 days

wpr (17-Apr) : 7 days

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : sounds like Packers don't get good compensation, Jaire staying

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Nobody coming up with a keep, but at x amount

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Trade, cut or keep

dfosterf (16-Apr) : that from Jaire

dfosterf (16-Apr) : My guess is the Packers floated the concept of a reworked contract via his agent and agent got a f'

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Yes, and that is why I think Rob worded it how he did. Rather than say "agent"

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Same laws apply. Agent must present such an offer to Jaire. Cannot accept or reject without presenting it

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : I'm thinking that is why Rob worded it how he did.

dfosterf (16-Apr) : The Packers can certainly still make the offer to the agent

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Laws of agency and definition of fiduciary responsibility

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Jaire is open to a reduced contract without Jaire's permission

dfosterf (16-Apr) : The agent would arguably violate the law if he were to tell the Packers

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : That someone ... likely the agent.

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : So, Jaire has not been offered nor rejected a pay reduction, but someone says he'd decline.

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Demovksy says t was direct communication with someone familiar with Jaire’s line of thinking at that moment.

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Demovsky just replied to me a bit ago. Jaire hasn't said it.

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Of course, that depends on the definition of "we"

dfosterf (16-Apr) : We have been told that they haven't because he wouldn't accept it. I submit we don't know that

dfosterf (16-Apr) : What is the downside in making a calculated reduced offer to Jaire?

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Packers are receiving interest in Jaire Alexander but a trade is not imminent

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Jalen Ramsey wants to be traded. He's never happy is he?

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : two 1sts in 2022 and two 2nd's in 2023 and 2024

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Packers had fortunate last three drafts.

dfosterf (15-Apr) : I may have to move

dfosterf (15-Apr) : My wife just told the ancient Japanese sushi dude not enough rice under his fish

Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : I think a dozen is what I need

dfosterf (14-Apr) : Go fund me for this purpose just might work. A dozen nurses show up at 1265 to provide mental health assistance.

dfosterf (14-Apr) : Maybe send a crew of Angels to the Packers draft room on draft day.

Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : I am the Angel that gets visited.

dfosterf (14-Apr) : Visiting Angels has a pretty good reputation

Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : what

Martha Careful (14-Apr) : WINNING IT, not someone else losing it. The best victory though was re-uniting with his wife

Martha Careful (14-Apr) : The manner in which he won it was just amazing and wonderful. First blowing the lead then getting back, then blowing it. But ultimately

Zero2Cool (12-Apr) : I'm guessing since the thumb was broken, he wasn't feeling it.

dfosterf (10-Apr) : Looking for guidance. Not feeling the thumb.

Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : If they knew about it or not

Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : I don't recall that he did which is why I asked.

Zero2Cool (10-Apr) : Guessing they probably knew. Did he have cast or something on?
