3rd string OSU quarterback against what I think is the best secondary in college football. I don't see OSU receivers winning every 50/50 ball against Alabama like against Wisc. OSU receivers will have trouble getting open at all. Amari Cooper is the reason I didn't want to see OSU at #4...

Fucking Ghana(injury faking, flopping every bump, pussies) is getting through with Germany over US on GD. In the first half of Ger/Ghana match, I was really impressed with those short-distance/precise passes under pressure on Ghana's half to open up shots/crosses, and I can see it ripping USA...

Are there some injuries or something for Portugal? For those of us who do not follow soccer much, it seems Portugal is doing poorly. Bad loss to Germans, and now barely tie US team that looked terrible against Ghana - the same Ghana team that tied Germany. It just seems a bit much calling...

There is, but I forgot they don't play extra time .. sorry, casual viewer..

Germany has any substitutions remaining? If the bloody guy can't continue ... edit: i don't get espn, so I have to watch a spanissh broadcast, so I miss a lot of info from commentary..

I don't watch much myself, but I get some premier league / champions league on ESPN. There's a world of difference. You can see games packed full of attacks like Ghana put together a few times.

It looks no different than a typical MLS game to me, which is also terrible to watch. Very short possessions - a couple passes then just pointlessly kick the ball up fields as the defender pressures.

I'm playing a necro on blue '99 and use titanium client. During mana regen downtime, I'd like to have a second copy of EQ open and level a druid on red '99 *this is legal by server rules*. The trouble is that whenever I try to open a second instance of EQ, the first instance black screens...

Extra post. oops

I think to begin to understand people like this you have to have had some personal experience dealing with people who truely have narcissistic personality disorder (not just selfish assholes - someone who meets all criteria given here:Narcissistic personality disorder Symptoms - Diseases and...

Read some of that manifesto or watch a minute of the video - kid was clearly a sociopath/psychopath. The conditions which result in such a person are not clear, and it is not really fair to judge our society based on extreme deviants. I infer from his parents' job and his facebook page that...

1)I tell someone exactly the form a logical refutation of my argument takes, and he repeats back to me an assumption of the exact point of contention as an attempt at refutation, and this happens several times (and also attributes to me the opposite of what I said). I'm sorry, but this does...

Most of your post is gibberish, but 1) This is actually an attempt at a counter-example to refute me. I counter: regular police forces, and regular citizens, are not what we're dealing with here. It's Nevada desert, and the people are militia. Just because NY police can deal with unarmed...

Two case argument: Case 1: redneck guns, feds do nothing. Case 2: redneck (oops) NO guns, feds do nothing. **for Case 2) make sure you refer back to where I told you how to refute me, in bold in a previous post. Same outcome with guns as without, so guns don't matter. Let me give you...

You are the one going on about how these guys at the ranch were a bunch of badasses, yes? OWS were a bunch of marxist bums. Group solidarity, determination, courage. (bums don't have these traits) Not guns, in this situation. *edit Here you show again, logic fail. The point was they...

1) feds can negate the guns anyway, so having them doesn't help protect protestors if feds want a fight. so guns don't matter if there is a fight. 2) without redneck guns, feds would still have to use lethal methods with huge political backlash to remove rednecks. So it seems fight or no...

1) So, when I realized you couldn't understand "exaggerating for emphasis," and attempted to provide alternate wording that you can, this proves ... I wasn't using exaggeration for emphasis? I really can't describe the fail here. edit: 2) here again, your counter-argument is 'NUH UH!' My...

Exactly, and those people all paid full (inflated) price of ACA plans vs what was available to healthy people pre-ACA. From the article: Yes, those who signed up off exchange are essential - many had high quality, lower cost health insurance pre-ACA, got canceled, and now pay up to 2x higher...

1) Me, about you: If this were verbal conversation, I'd use 1-2 syllable words and talk very slowly for you. I realize, even when I wrote my first post, BLM cannot call drone strikes. I was using exaggeration to emphasize my point that (as I still believe) that rednecks with or without guns...

Let's use this common point of agreement as a starting point. So, in the long run: 1) Premiums go up (insurance co passing on costs to their customers, in the specific context of Medicaid expansion): a) Those who don't get subsidies pay (middle class and up).. higher premiums b) more...

This isn't a fucking traffic stop. I gave a specific reason that I feel guns didn't matter in this case: Specifically, with a decent size group of people (as compared to a few), non-lethal methods to forcibly remove people seem to be less effective, thus forcing use of excessive force, even if...

1) I wrote this in my first post. So you come back and say, "Nuh Uh!" You sure got me. 2) I wrote this in reply to another .. exceptionally literal person who focuses on minor details rather than the main point: 3) No. I wrote: I will not reply to more of this shit. This is retard level...

Look , I wasn't seriously suggesting a drone strike as an option. (it's like .. exaggerating for purpose of humor? what's that called?) Substitute special forces snipers if you like. The point is not how feds can kill rednecks, it's that feds can kill rednecks, whether or not rednecks have guns...

That was my point. The rednecks did not need their guns to escalate the situation far enough that feds would be required to use excessive force in order to forcibly remove them, thus, they were not removed. I wrote this to counter fanakin's statement that rednecks were successful because...

Both sides were armed, sure. However, we're talking rednecks with guns. Let's have no illusions about this - the feds backed off because they didn't want to make a scene. If BLM wanted to really push the issue, how is a drone strike not sufficient (or snipers)? It's not that the rednecks...

double post.

1) Yes, I imagine it is a bit complicated. I have two choices here. a) believe that insurance co's won't pass their costs on due to .. what? poor performance of lobbyists, charitable feelings? b) they'll act like any other business and pass their costs on. For someone like me, not highly...

1) Obviously Medicaid expansion is federally funded (90% after 2020). The question is where does that money come from. For ACA premium subsidies, NPR says they'll introduce taxes, Medicare savings etc. For Medicaid, they'll what? edit: if you say something like 'from taxes on insurance co'...

I believe we're talking about who pays for ACA subsidies, right? How The Affordable Care Act Pays For Insurance Subsidies : Shots - Health News : NPR I couldn't find info (in 2min searching google) on the source of federal funds for Medicaid expansion. It is safe to assume the 10% state...

Not even close. I counted two complete sentences. That's like 20th percentile at least right there.

Soviet gov't owned not just land but also most other means of production? Private enterprise is not so scarce in Nevada, unlike the USSR. Good land was basically given away to private citizens in the mid 19th century in the American west. (after it was taken by force from natives, if any...

This is a very small sample. It takes into account only one type of tax and for only one income level. But let's assume you are correct. Consider the US gov has some expenses Canadians may not shoulder, like ~10 aircraft carriers to Canada's 0. Wiki claims Canada 1.15% of GDP vs 4.9% GDP...

By 'cheaper' I assume you mean the Canadian single payer system provides the _same_ service for less. You are assuming a debatable point. Sorry for the source, but I don't have patience to wade through old news stories right now. I have not evaluated this data, but it generally represents my...

Do you see the problem with the quoted text? My own research indicates a much longer wait to see a specialist in the UK compared to the US. They have substantially better access to primary care physicians. You frame your argument as if healthcare in the UK is better is every respect, which...

My individual policy cannot be revoked as long as I pay the monthly premium, and there is no lifetime maximum coverage. People who could not get individual insurance before, esp. due to pre-existing conditions, now have access. This and more, due to ACA. If you're going to tackle a complex...

1)He was not making a prediction about the future. He was making a statement about performance of ACA to date. Can you not read? He said "so far." I replied that we should not judge the worth of the ACA on performance 'so far' but rather on the long term, that is, 'later'. It seems every...

I did skim the more recent posts. Then we agree here. Young/healthy need insurance, yes. No one in the USA should be without health insurance, ever, unless it is impossible to get. It comes right after air, water, food, shelter. I don't even mind forcing people to buy it or pay a fine...

This is not a well founded statement. ACA has yet to even be fully implemented, and the long term effects are of more consequence. I have discussed some of these, including decline of middle class and shortage of physicians. Then you were a fool. You could have purchased a policy for $125 /...

Have you ever been to inner city schools? Mass civil disorder if they're running the streets with nothing else to do. Their parents certainly can't control them or even attempt to take responsibility, in many cases, due to single parent households or just not giving a shit.

The ranching family has been using the land since 1870ish, and this has been in the courts for 20+ years, so this is not something 'they just found out'. The rancher was told to remove his cattle to protect endangered desert tortoise, the same animal that BLM is intentionally killing due to...
