Point taken, I can't blame you for that.

My bad for not using a sarcasm smiley. That clip is a classic! You shouldn't even need to warn people about the content. That's one thing I don't like about today's politically correct society is offensive terms/slang is considered off-limits regardless of context. Calling somebody a cracker or a is offensive. But when there is a news story about the use of the word, there is context involved. The word is pertinent to the situation. Just like the SNL clip. It's a comedy skit with a white and a black man, involving all races........... all wrapped up into something comical. Why does that need to be considered off-limits today? Rhetorical question, by the way.

I think we need to rid the entire comedy industry of every joke that offends somebody.

Liberal culture.

Media culture.

Why does everything need to a be a 'culture'? Is that the modern day version of stereotyping? Club culture, gun culture, cop culture......... It's the new way of lumping people into a group without sounding discriminatory.

I guess it's a rumor floating around NY. Detroit and BFLO are interested. Apparently, the rumor hasn't left NY, lol.

Can I keep my wins from last year? :lol:

It's a shame this thread exists. It's given me an entirely different perspective of people I once held in high regard.

Am I the only one hearing the Rick Nash to BFLO rumors?

Can we please have the draft on a night that Woody can attend so he doesn't have an excuse for losing this year? :P

I'm OK with 6.

What was it last year?

I think he lost interest, just like the rest of us that don't drive on the left hand side of the road.

I'm in. I don't have an opinion on the 2QB deal. Without being able to go back and look at last year, if adding a QB can mean eliminating one other position, I'm for it. If I remember correctly, with the amount of teams we have playing, the league was severely depleted of RB/WR players (free agents) as injuries started piling up. Granted that's not entirely realistic, but that's why it's called 'fantasy'. ;)

No, not bad at all. You'll never be able to beat using different lenses with an SLR or film camera but phone cameras have come a long, long way over the last few years.

Great pics, Bio! Are those taken with your phone? If so, what kind of phone are you using?

Hope to see you back for regular season. ;)

It's a conglomeration of hypocrisy, closed-mindedness, snark and the gang mentality by many in this group who claim to be welcoming and open to new ideas. The labeling, the stereotypes and the eventual treatment based on said stereotypes just pushes people away. It's most notable in this thread and the Kane thread, and to a smaller extent the O'Reilly thread. It's been noted the amount of new posters on this forum, but in the grand scheme of things the growth is minimal, and there's a reason for that. NS isn't the only one that needs a break.

I figured Foligno only got a one year contract so that they wouldn't have to protect him at the expansion draft. I get the impression Murray likes Foligno and wants him to stay, and maybe they worked out a deal to come up with a longer term contract at the end of this year. By giving Foligno a one year deal he doesn't meet the criteria as an 'exposed' player because his contract doesn't run into 2017-18, yet he is an RFA so he isn't free to eave at the end of the year.

All? Not all, I know plenty of people who own a gun solely for the purpose of defense.

Rhetoric.

The primary purpose of guns is to protect ones self by those wishing to do harm by any means necessary, be it a knife, bat, fist or a vehicle. The primary purpose of a gun is to protect a life, not take one. If there is anybody here attempting to make somebody seem unreasonable, it's you. You sure do have a way of looking down your nose at people you disagree with. But hey, at least you didn't tell Sizzle to leave the thread.

Up to, and including this forum.

I agree. Between the hostility in the political thread and this thread, this place is getting rather bitter and uninviting. I'd rather the hostility be concentrated on GDT's. :D
