    [W:1] NFL Off-season Thread 2024

    Every team's goal should be to win a Super Bowl, or several. They just have differing ideas about how to get there. You have to make the playoffs to have a chance. Fields may be a bust in Pittsburgh, but he's worth taking the chance at little cost, just like Wilson.

    When is the last time a Republican President or a Republican Congress actually lowered the debt?

    Let's remember that Paul Martin, under Chretien, eliminated the federal deficits not by reducing spending but by slashing federal government transfers to the Provinces in areas of federal jurisdiction, such as health care - remember, health care was supposed to be a 50/50 deal between the...

    What is the #1 problem in America Today?

    The number 1 problem in America today, same as in Canada, is that too many people are uneducated voters and they simply vote for the guys and gals who promise to give them them most free stuff. Government as sugar daddy is all they want.

    LOL this from the big supporter of the Cheatriots and Bill Cheatlichik - you would be an expert on dirt bags! Unlike the Cheatriots, the Steelers have great success drafting receivers anywhere in the draft and turning them into terrific players and they move on when they think they're done -...

    I would never want Lamar Jackson as the Steelers' QB. I'd rather have Mason Rudolph. Nobody can predict the future, but I'm quite happy to see the Steelers with Wilson and Fields going forward - their effectiveness will largely depend on what their OC concocts for them and their offensive line...

    When is the last time a Republican President or a Republican Congress actually lowered the debt?

    A Canadian liberal asking about lowering debt is hilarious. Canadian liberals support a Prime Minister who continues to balloon deficits and the debt and claims that "budgets balance themselves"- if it wasn't so tragically imbecilic...................

    Israel must take steps to prevent genocide in Gaza

    Just to provide a little clarity for you - the criticism and protests in places like the US and Canada are labelled anti-Semitism because they are directed at Jews living in those countries, not at Israel itself. It wouldn't be labelled anti-Semitism if the criticism and protests were directed...

    Do you actually read what you post before you post it? Steelers are going to realize they made a mistake with Wilson but they are going to sign him to a long term contract - seriously? Wilson will be quite happy to collect from the Broncos until that contract runs out while he gives his new...

    Steelers have a general manager who does the drafting - Tomlin doesn't - he may offer advice, but the decision isn't his. I've been a Steelers fan since the 1960s - I suffered through the years where the Steelers couldn't find a good replacement for Terry Bradshaw until Ben Roethlisberger came...

    Biden Admits His Policies Are Hurting Us

    What possesses leftists to believe that the answer to every problem is to throw government money at it? Every leftist solution, no matter the issue, is to send out a government cheque. Conservatives have long understood that most people would be better off if the government just got out of the...

    As a Steelers fan, disappointed to hear Henry signed with the Ravens, but for Henry to be effective in Baltimore, Jackson will have to figure out how to be a more conventional QB - picking the Ravens for third or fourth in the AFC North next year.

    You can have Lamar Jackson. Baltimore will win nothing while he is their starting QB, which is just fine with me. As for Sean Payton, his reputation is/was better than his results. Mike Tomlin is, record wise, the most successful head coach of his generation. Under him, the Steelers have...

    I just think Lamar Jackson is Cam Newton 2.0, without the personality. Cheatriots are going to need a QB soon.

    [W:1] NFL Off-season Thread 2024

    Congrats to the Steelers and Russell Wilson. Not sure what Wilson has left, but if he has anything worth exploiting Tomlin is the man to find it. As a Steelers' fan, I think it's a terrific signing - even better when considering that the Ravens saddled themselves long term with their loser QB...

    Israel must take steps to prevent genocide in Gaza

    I may have missed something, but I can't think of another country that sends out warnings to a populace they are at war with and that they are about to bomb/attack. If they were committing genocide, why the warnings? Bottom line, however, in my view, is that the Palestinians elected Hamas as...
