Adam Sandler got paid $275M to make 4 bad movies from Netflix. Same deal, same world, certainly doesn't make either right. It's tough for me sometimes, I can't get to Africa now because of Covid, which has really bummed me out, my kiddos over there can't even get food for daily consumption and it's wearing on me a little. I suppose it just caught me the wrong way on the wrong day. Quote

It’s 50M paying a $1/year in cash and eyeballs. Quote

I assumed you were referring to the Jimmy Breslin book, The Gang that Couldn't Shoot Straight. Libby is a free app one can use to borrow digital versions of a book from the library. All one needs is a library card and a device. I would bet that @LGR4GM sees it as a portent of evil. Edited September 9, 2020 by Eleven Quote
WildCard Posted September 10, 2020 Author Report Posted September 10, 2020 Someone on TSW linked a Jets forum and I read some posts. Apparently Bills fans are flannel wearing poor alcoholics who eat squirrels in the winter and are generally just white trash. Never really hated the Jets until right now Quote

I wouldn't say that. It didn't sound that large to me. And when they asked for a moment of silence, the stadium was pretty much silent. Having said that, KC is the sort of flyover country where booing protestors fighting for social justice is popular, I would imagine. Never been there. Quote
