How much do you want to bet Barfarn never used the word "dotard" before Kim Jong-un leveled that epithet against Donald Trump?

Friendly hint, Comrade Barfarn: You might think it makes you sound sophisticated, educated, or clever to bandy about old-fashioned-sounding insults like "dotard," but the word doesn't mean what you seem to think it means. Flogging perfectly good English words so egregiously just makes you sound pretentious, hyperbolic, and worst of all, shrill.

FYI: ā€œDotardā€ was chosen over many others for some very specific reasons. The fact that this word grabbed your attention, a youngster in every material way, only serves to ratify my artistic communicative genius šŸ˜‚ šŸ˜‚ šŸ˜‚. That aside, even if true that the argument’s author possesses a dearth of command of the language; is this how human beings, purported patriotic Americans, ā€œChristians,ā€ human beings or people that consider themselves moral counter-argue, mocking ideas for their lack of grammar?

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the subject counter-argument constitutes a freakish self-entitled duplicity. While mocking one for using a word tangential to its exact accepted meaning; the counter-argument asserts that English is being ā€œflogged.ā€ Da ways eyes sees it, a language cannot be ā€œflogged;ā€ but I’d be a childish dickhead to make fun of this arguer for using ā€œflogā€ in such a context.

But, here’s the greater depressive tragedy: universities are teaching sociopathy today instead of a respect for Peoples and their rights. In my day, we would have marched over deportations and profiling, harassment and assassinations of minorities. Far too many youngsters today have lost the ability for civil disagreement; hold an egocentric self-entitlement; and possess a fleeting respect for the rule of law and other pillars of our society. Worst of all, they’re just a lot meaner, they relish playing the part of the bully. Far too many seek-out the majority position, regardless of its morality, so they can be on the winning/bullying side. My generation of university students fought on the side of the weaker.

It looks to me like it's supposed to be "Carolina loss is on the GB fan." Looks like he might have been Swyping on a mobile device when he wrote it.

But seriously, the loss is the fault of the fans? Really, Barfarn? Really?

This is why people can be led by the nose by a nonsensical phrase: "Tax cuts to rich will trickle down." The twitter brained dope says, "Doh, oh ya that sounds about right šŸ˜‚." Since "trickle-down" was first introduced by Reagan, a concept that I personally initially accepted, because it fit many economic models; it simply has been proven NOT to work and there's not a respected economist that says it does. What we learned is that a person making 2 mill per year is already spending all she can; and an extra million is squirreled away in offshore accounts or legally laundered thru foreign pass thru companies. Corporations also squirrel money away in pass thru overseas companies. EG. Caterpiller employees 16K people in US; but its Swiss unit of 125 people accounts for over 30% of the company's profit.

Here's a stat: Executive wages in 70's were about 20x the average worker's wage. Iit exploded to 100x in the 80's due ot Reagan's plan. In 2014 it was measured at 330x. But, a dunce n a subject remains a dunce on the subject if he refutes argument with monosyllabic 140 character twitter thinking.

I digress šŸ˜‚, I'll give ya the Cliff's notes:
1. Rodgers played like crap, the gunslinger, the cowboy, wilfullly choosing to stat whore and play outside of the practiced offense. This destroyed our odds of winning.
2. 1265 seeks only profit not winning; if fans continue to idolize Rodgers, 1265 has no motivation to correct Rodgers' play.
3. Rodgers is not held accountable by fans, so he doesnt feel negative impact of his crap play. If fans held him accountable he'd stop that crap and get back to playing like the GOAT he was a few years ago.

Here's a fact: Back half '15 he played like crap; but fans blamed everyone and everything else [Except me of course, I just look at the tape]. So his crap play continued in early '16. During the 4 game losing streak; Rodgers regressing even further. But, one thing changed. Fans began to blame Rodgers; the press started savaging him and miracle of miracles, Rodgers played a lot better. Rodgers announced in off season he was "rededicating" himself to football and started playing this year quite well without an OL.

How the fans react to his crap play; will affect his play going forward.

Now use that education for good. Prove you are not a sociopathic majority seeking bully and break with the clique peanut gallery. Argue like an educated adult: if you disagree, attack the argument not the person!

My twitter brain is screaming at me to reply with simply, "I'd like to attack your argument, if you know what I mean." But gay jokes on the internet aren't as fun when everyone is trying to be so serious. Come on guys, lighten up.

On the plays where Rodgers REPEATEDLY passed up open shorter routes. Tell me exactly the play called was, what the progressions of the play were, what the defense was showing.

Otherwise give it up because you don't know.

But, your effective argument [Rodgers’ bad play can’t be quantified because I said so] has to be rejected. If you believe my analysis of the play is or might be wrong, I’d offer that you articulate how.

Of course, I can’t be so certain on every play; but I am 100% certain on this one. I haven’t reviewed my notes to empirically count; but there are about 12 plays that I can breakdown with a high degree of certainty and Rodgers mentally screwed up on about half and executed the other half correctly. There’s another 15 or so plays where Rodgers passed on the first reads; but I can’t say with certainty if the play required the throw to go to the first reads in that given situation or if there was another prevailing reason why Rodgers executed good judgment in not throwing to those first reads. But, given the overall lack of effectiveness relative to what happens when Rodgers is executing the offense correctly and given we know he screwed up a half dozen times out of 12 random plays; it is safe to say goofed on 1/3 to ½ of these plays as well.

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?
