Both. We have a saying in the army, "You don't have to respect the person, but you have to respect their rank". This is what I meant, and I think it's applicable to the discussion. At least what I was discussing. To reiterate my point, in the discussion I was having, if a cop is talking to you you probably did something wrong which is why he's talking to you in the first place. If a cop is giving you instructions you should listen to him, if you do than nothing gets escalated.

Please do.

You don't have to respect him. Or trust him. Or like him. You just have to listen to him.

How are you confusing trust with following instructions? How is trust even relevant?

I agree, it is completely unacceptable. Was the tradjedy caused by the officers action, or the criminals reaction? No, basic common sense.

I think you just identified the main problem. Kudos to you sir. I disagree, I think that is exactly the point. Respect authority figures. It's that simple.

I have idea what you are referring to, but I don't know you to be someone who exagerates so I'll take your word for it. There's always going to be exceptions and outliers no matter the discussion, that does not invalidate my point though. If you comply with an officers instructions in a respectful manner things don't escalate.

Had he complied with the officers instructions there would not have been a choke hold.

How many times have you seen, read, or heard of a person complying with an officers instructions in a respectful manner and dying? Me either. Why don't more young men and women enroll in a police academy and join their local force so they can be part of the solution?

Now why in the world would you pick up seattles defense? You know their gonna get lit up in philly, right? Please put them in your line-up!

Too long.

Look at the Packers last three road games. Three point win over the Vikings, blown out by the Saints and a three point win in Miami. Bills have the best pass rush in the league and the home crowd. I think they win.

Valid point. Greatest playoff run ever!!!

I'd like two QB if possible.

Green Bay at home.

Jamestown. Brilliant.

I see no possible way I win any tiebreaker scenario. My playoffs start this week, win or go home.

Definitely make it a PPR league!! And if there's an option in this league I'd like to see a defensive player added.

Marty signed to one year deal.

Four teams.

If your other leagues have an eight or six team playoff that would be why.

It's possible we could have six teams with 8-6 records, for three playoff spots. Anyone know who gets in if that happens?

Problem?
